Summary: Conversation with Beast Boy and Raven.


"Do you ever regret it?" He asked her one night. "Be honest."

She hesitated slightly, "A little," she confessed.

"Why?"

"It's just that we've been doing it so long, it felt like habit. It feels sort of strange not being interrupted by an alert at the most inopportune moment, telling us we're going to have to fight some villain with a gimmick."

"You actually miss those loud annoying alerts?" He teased.

She rolled her eyes. "Ha ha. You know what I mean. Part of me is wondering, why aren't I defending our city instead of them?"

"They're doing pretty good Rae."

"I know, but they're still kids."

"So were we," he pointed out to her.

She sighed, knowing he was right. Still, she couldn't convince that minor part of her.

"Hey," he started a bit uneasily, tightening his arms around her, "Would you ever do it all over again; take the other road?"

He left the other words hanging in the air: forget us and everything we've done on this road?

"No," she answered firmly. "Logically, I know we couldn't doO that forever. It's kind of like …a play. We were only Act I; we were the ones to set the story and draw the audience in. As fun as it's been though, there are more things to come, maybe even better things. But to start the next act, the curtain must fall. Besides," she added, "I just meant that I felt guilty about ending that part of our lives. Trust me, I wouldn't be able to go back so content; I'd miss this road to much."

A/N: It seems a little ooc to me for some reason. Anyway, that was my attmept of "Show, Don't Tell". I really hope I didn't create any confusion. Feel free to ask questions.

On a bit of an unrelated note, I've gotten some new inspiration for "Thoughts of the Wicked". Will start re-writing as soon as possible.
