'Kay, so I was bored. :D
Jinx-Raven friendship drabble, hinted at BBRae, RobStar, JinxKF, and CyJinx. I like Jinx with both, so I hope I don't offend anyone.
This is mostly only being submitted so I can have a notice:
Modern Day Romeo and Juliet and Flavor of the Week have been put on hiatus. With school wrapping up and parties starting up, I'm not having much time to write. But, omg, I'm so flattered by all the reviews. 500 flipping reviews on mdraj, and 100 at fotw! Bejebus!
Read, if you want. NO POINT WHATSOEVER.
"…So…"
Raven lowered her glass, eyeing the girl next to her. She hopped onto a barstool, shaking out her light pink hair, and ordered a drink.
"Are you talking to me?" Raven asked.
The girl spun in a circle on her barstool, giggling slightly. "See anyone else around?"
"Quit it, Jinx."
"No thanks," Jinx replied cheerily.
"Never saw you as a club hopper, Jinx," Raven said, monotonous as ever. She took a small sip of her drink and fingered the silver ring, engraved with a violet R, on her currently tanned hand.
"It goes both ways," Jinx said, "but moving on, how was your day?"
"I kicked your ass, as you're well aware."
Jinx winced, rubbing her arm like a five year-old in need of attention would. "Must you go so hard?"
"Fortunately," Raven said smugly, raising her drink to her lips.
"Any updates on you-know-who?"
Raven never felt more thankful for the strobe lights; Jinx would never see the light blush on her face. Luckily for Jinx, she heard it in her voice. "N-No," she said bluntly, "and I don't know what you're talking about."
The pink-haired foe rolled her eyes. "Deny all you want, Roth." She held up both hands, shrugging her shoulders. "But really Rachel," Jinx giggled, emphasizing on her alias, "Did you think I wouldn't notice?"
"Why can't you, whenever you're out, act the way you do in battle?" Raven groaned. "You're so Gothic then."
Jinx snorted, mumbling thanks as her drink was delivered. "Image, darling, image," she said, waving a finger as if she was already drunk. Raven suppressed a laugh.
"But hey, as long as you aren't going after Vic, I'm okay with it."
Raven raised her eyebrows. "You're on a first name basis with him, already? And what happened to Wally?"
Jinx grinned. Rachel rolled her eyes again. "You're a tease."
"Hey, I never said anything! So is Star jealous?"
Raven's violet eyes widened. "Star? What—you think me…and Robin?" She shook her head a few times, laughing softly.
"So then you admit it!"
"…What?"
"Not Vic, not Robin, who else does that leave?"
"...Red X."
Jinx winked. "Sure, babe," she said coolly.
Raven opened her mouth to speak, but was cut off as a cell phone interrupted. She couldn't help but feel thankful. Jinx flipped open her pink phone, muttered a few words into the receiver, and snapped it shut. "Well, it's been real, but I've really got to get back. The HIVE idiots want me to pick up some of my things."
"They don't seem so bad around you," Raven observed.
She shrugged. "They don't really classify as villains to me—they remind me of Dr. Light. Gizmo still has nightmares about you."
Raven allowed a proud smile. A small twinkle in her eye, she said, "So, tomorrow?"
Dropping a few coins and bills on the counter, Raven received a giggle as a reply and a salute. "Yes ma'am, bright and so frickin' early at six hundred hours, ma'am," she said, struggling to maintain her voice. "Try and go easier in combat practice, okay?"
Raven ignored her question. "Are you drunk already?"
"No," Jinx giggled again, "I just like acting it. I'll get in after you, so I'm trusting you won't let Boy Blunder know I was out at night."
"What, and ruin our escape outings? Beast Boy would go crazy, trying to get me to go out clubbing with him every night. I saw him here the other night, with his ring of course, and thankfully he didn't notice me. It would've been hell if he did, insisting I dance with him and such."
"Would you have really minded?"
"I—"
"Thought so," Jinx said. "I'll see you in the morning, then." Suddenly, her voice lowered and she threw an arm over her forehead dramatically. "I wouldn't want to miss my epic training so I can go out and start saving humanity!"
"You're a loser."
"It's the booze talking, dear," Jinx said, chortling.
"Says the girl who likes to act drunk because she finds it fun?"
"Exactly! Now I must really be going, love," she said, twirling her arm in another dramatic bow. "I bid you adieu!"
Raven didn't bother saying goodbye, just returned to her drink. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a blonde-haired man who bore a strong resemblance to a certain green-skinned crime fighter eyeing her curiously. Oh boy.
Won't be continued. Okay, so since I didn't feel like sending in another story, I'm just making the Red X thing a drabble starter.
So yes, Jinx has joined the titans. After season 5 ended, of course. I see Jinx and Raven getting along. This is how I write Jinx...-shrugs-
Review, if you'd like.
