Okay, here are the alternate versions for "Stranded"
"Starfire, what happened back there? Why couldn't you fly?"
Starfire sat on the log with her arms wrapped around her knees, looking at the ground. "Tamaranian powers are inclined by our emotions."
Robin sat down next to her. "So the way you feel affects you ability to fly."
Starfire looked away from him. "And right now I feel unfamiliar confusion."
Robin still didn't understand. "But, we've faced danger before without your powers failing."
Starfire shook her head. "It is not danger that confuses me Robin. It is you. I do not understand... us."
Robin winces at the sound of that word, which brings such nervousness to him.
Starfire continued. "Ever since Cyborg said, the "girlfriend", things are different between us."
Robin tried to make light of it. "It's... just a misunderstanding. Everything's okay."
Starfire stood up. "Everything is not okay." She walked away from the fire and stood facing away from him, her hands clasped together. "We are not okay, I fear we will never be okay again... and you will not tell me how you feel."
Robin stands up. "You really want to know, don't you."
Starfire nods, still not looking at him. "More than anything Robin." She turns to him. "I thougth all this time that you and I had a special relationship. We have never spoken of it, but I always felt that there was more between us. When Cyborg spoke of it, you denied it. And I must know if you truly feel that way. Have I been fooling myself all this time? Do you really think of me as simply a friend?"
Robin steps up to her, looking down. Quietly, almost whispering, he says, "No."
Starfire's eyebrows go up. She looks at him expectantly. "Robin?"
He finally looks her in the eyes and takes her hands. "No, I don't think of you as just a friend. You are much more to me than that, Starfire. I'm sorry that I denied it, but... I was just... embarrassed that Cyborg said it out loud. It caught me off guard. I didn't think that the others knew about the special... connection we had. I didn't mean to say that you weren't... I didn't mean to deny it. I just... couldn't face the others looking at me like that, knowing. Do you understand?"
Starfire thinks about it for a moment, then nods. "Yes, Robin. I understand why you felt uncomfortable."
Robin sighs with relief. "If you really want to know, then yes; I have entertained the thought of you as my... girlfriend. And now that this is all out in the open... I'd like you to really be my girlfriend. There's no reason to hide it anymore and... I really want to be with you. I want us to be together. I love you, Starfire. Will you be my girlfriend?"
Starfires eyes go wide and sparkly, and you can practically see the pulsing hearts dancing around her head. "Robin... yes! I will be your girlfriend!"
They two smile brightly at each other, then lean in and share their first kiss as an official couple.
Or...

Robin stands up, pulling at his collar. "Uh, I'm not really good at that."
Starfire sniffles and rubs her nose. "Do earth boys come with some kind of manual then?"
Robin smiles. "That would make things easier."
Starfire steps up close to him. "How am I to know what you think about me?"
Robin's arms drop to his side. "Starfire." he takes a deep breath. "It's really that important for you to know?"
Starfire nods and claps her hand together again. "Yes, Robin. I wish to know how you really feel about me."
Robin sighs. "Okay then. What I really think about you. I... I think the world of you, Starfire. You're the most wonderful person I've ever met. You're beautiful. I think you are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life. You are the kindest person I know. You've always had faith in me, even when I fail, even when I do something wrong. When I wake up in the morning, the only thing that makes me happy is knowing that I'm going to be able to see you. You brighten my day, just being there, and just being who you are. You're more special to me than anyone. I never want to go a day where I cannot see you; where I can't talk to you and stand next to you. I...I..." he takes another deep breath, about to sum it all up. "I love you, Starfire."
Starfire's eyes grow wider and sparklier with each second that he makes this speech. You can practically see the pulsing hearts dancing around her head. "Oh, Robin..." She then tackles him in a hug, knocking them both to the ground. Robin blushes as he realizes their position. Starfire then pulls them both to their feet, throwing her arms around his neck and resting her head on his shoulders. "Robin, I love you as well. I always have, since the day I met you."
She then pulls back and the two stare into each other's eyes for a moment. Then they lean in, closer and closer until, yes Mr. and Mrs. America and all the ships at sea, Robin and Starfire share their first romantic kiss, and there is no one around to comment or interupt.
Or...
Okay, now take whichever of those other two senarios you liked best, only before they can kiss, they are interrupted by the Creature from the space station. They fight it, it falls into the chasm, Starfire flies Robin up to the surface and they stare at each other, still holding each other's hand.
Starfire's eyes gleam. "Robin."
They lean in and now they kiss. The T-ship pulls up in front of them and Cyborg interrupts.
"Ahem"
They pull apart. Starfire squeals. "Friends! It is glorious to see you!"
They talk about the ship, Cyborg's hands, Raven gets a massage, "Shala!".
The screen goes blank. End credits.
