Robin's Letter:
Raven,
How are you? Well, I'm doing fine. But you probably already know this as we live in the same house. Something you may not know is that I am very worried about my friend. I hope that she will write back to me, no matter how difficult it is to start the letter. I am now thoroughly enjoying myself writing you though the beginning was rough. That is about all I can think to say. Please write back soon.
Yours truly,
Robin
Raven read the letter, shaking her head. Suddenly she was having doubts about this plan. She turned to her desk and got out paper and a pen, when she heard something slip under her door.
As she had expected, there lie another letter. Picking it up, she recognized Cyborg's handwriting. She opened it with her powers, making the letter to levitate in front of her while she read it.
Hey Raven,
Uh, well you kinda' know why I'm writing. Not that I'm mind or anything. So, I got that part for the T-car I've been waiting for. Just finished putting it in. It should make it go faster. If you want you can come down and take a ride or something. Well I'd better go, I think hear Beast Boy and knowing him he'll find a way to break something.
Off to defend the T-car,
Cyborg
This one actually made her smile. 'How do I reply to that?' she thought. She sat down and went to write back to Robin. She suddenly realized that Robin was right about the difficulty of starting a letter.
Robin,
I am doing quite well. I would ask you about yourself, but you have already informed me you are fine so I shall leave it at that. Robin, you do not need to worry about me. That is to say, if I was the friend you were talking about in your letter. If I wasn't, then I have no advice for you. Except that you should be more specific. Now I must leave you to write a reply to Cyborg.
Raven
'Yes, that's alright.' She thought to herself. 'Now for Cyborg.'
Cyborg,
Congratulations on getting your part and installing it. I will probably wait for the next mission to ride in the new and improved T-car. I will finish this letter and allow you return to whatever mechanical stuff or Beast Boy hunting you were doing before you began reading this.
Raven
With that she sealed both envelopes and left to deliver them.
The hall was very quite, usually you could hear Beast boy and Cyborg fighting, or playing, or arguing. Basically you could usually hear Beast Boy and Cyborg. But today all she could hear was silence. Even Starfire's room was quiet.
As she passed Beast Boy's room she heard crinkling paper and a sound like a moan of "no". She continued on to Robin and Cyborg's rooms, neither of which seemed to be in them.
She decided to go and have some tea. While she waited, she watched a bird flying outside the window; it seemed to be doing acrobatics. 'I wonder if Beast Boy can fly like that? He can be graceful at times.' She blinked. 'Where did that come from?' she wondered as she walked over to the whistling teapot.
The door to the main room opened to reveal Beast Boy, deep in thought, who proceeded to trip on the threshold. Any thoughts of grace in Beast Boy were banished.
'What am I gonna' write to Raven?' Beast Boy pondered for the bazillionth time that day. 'I don't even know how to start it! Dear Raven sounds too formal, just Raven sounds to plain and serious-' "Ahhh!" he yelled as he tripped over the threshold.
"That was an…interesting entrance," commented Raven from the kitchen. Beast Boy blushed, of all the people to see him trip, it had to be her. She was now sitting at the table, sipping her tea.
He made his way over to the fridge, careful not to trip. 'Hmm, tofu, blue fuzz, pizza, mustard,' he looked through the fridge; quickly deciding on tofu after he saw the blue fuzz start munching on the pizza. He sat down at the table next to Raven.
She glanced over at him, then decided this set up was okay. He ate his snack and leaned back comfortably in his chair. Raven was looking out the window. Beast Boy looked outside then looked at Raven.
Raven's eyes were following a bird. Her elbows rested on the table, holding her cup to the level of her lips. Beast Boy watched her for almost a minute before she felt his gaze. He quickly looked away, muttering something that sounded like, "bird…yea…go…" as he stood and hurried from the room.
Back in the safety of his room, he began to write.
Hi Raven!
I just got back from an after noon snack. You were in there. You were drinking tea and looking relaxed and pretty. "Wait a minute!" Beast Boy whispered to himself
He erased the last sentence and wrote:
You were drinking tea watching a bird out the window. I nailed Cyborg with a stankball earlier this morning. I'm gonna' wrap this up now.
Bye,
Beast Boy
He read it over again and left to deliver it. On his way down the hall, Starfire came out of her room with an envelope in her hands. He smiled and asked, "Are you headed for Raven's room too?" She nodded and they walked side by side the last few feet. They put their letters under the door.
As they started to walk away Starfire looked at Beast Boy and said, "Friend Beast Boy, are we only to write letters to Raven? Can we not correspond with our other friends?"
"I can't see why not, we wouldn't get in trouble if we did any way." he replied. This thought had occurred to him during his prank plan. "Friend Beast Boy, do you know where Robin is? I have not seen him for an unusually long time." "No, Star I haven't." he said his gaze saying he was in a different place entirely. But her crestfallen look brought him back to Earth. "I'll tell him your looking for him if I see." he added. This seemed to cheer her up. She kept on down the hall as Beast Boy turned into his room.
He lie down on his bed. "What is going on?' he thought with frustration. 'First, since when do I care if I screw up in front of Raven? Next, I call her pretty?' He paused at that thought.
'I guess she is pretty, really, really pretty.' He shook his head. 'What is going on?' he repeated in his head.
