It was the day of Thanksgiving, and in the kitchen was a table set with all sorts of delicious food. Nightwing was inspecting the table, making sure there was nothing out of place.
"Ah, what a wonderful, traditional Thanksgiving dinner. The cranberry sauce, the yams, the weird, green bean casserole with the almonds in it. And most important, this big, beautiful golden brown turkey." All the rest of the Titans groaned, however. "What's wrong everybody?"
"We're just sort of tired of Thanksgiving being so traditional." Beast retorted.
"Literally every other holiday is more fun than Thanksgiving." Raven agreed.
"Indeed." Starfire spoke up. "Most of the other holidays, you get this sweet candies."
"Along with getting all thems present! Yeah!" Beast pumped.
"Thanksgiving is just the same food at the same table with the same people getting into the same argument about politics." Cyborg finalized.
"Yeah, and I've never been much into tradition in general." Jinx shrugged. "I do my own thing."
"What about a new holiday?" Raven offered. Starfire got excited.
"With the new traditions!"
"A holiday that's the opposite of Thanksgiving!" Cyborg hollered.
"Thanksgetting!" Jinx christened this new, untraditional holiday for themselves.
"And how are you going to do that?" Nightwing questioned.
"You'll see!" Cyborg replied as they replaced the turkey, decorations, with pictures of kittens, waffles, and baseballs. Pink cactuses were set up with Christmas lights strewn about them. Ripping off their outfits, Nightwing is a rockstar, Cyborg is a cowboy, Raven is a Swiss yodeler, Beast is a dinosaur, Starfire is a kitten, and Jinx is a fortune teller.
"Thanksgetting tradition #1!" Beast started off. "Saying what you ain't grateful for! I'll go first. I ain't grateful for paper cuts! Why does paper need to be so sharp?!"
"I'm not grateful for bee stings!" Cyborg admitted. "I don't care if most of my body is made of metal, I still have my right side of my face to consider!"
"I'm not grateful for sunburns!" Raven yelled out. "it does no favors for my pale skin!"
"I'm not grateful for broken fingernails! I know it's a cliche, but it's annoyingly common with how much acrobatics I do." Jinx grumbled.
"I am the not grateful for bad attitudes." Starfire said with the rest. "There is no need to be the mean if there is no justifiable reason."
"I'm not thankful for whenever the mail or my orders are late. I know we live on island, but there's a bridge for vehicles to go across without a boat!" Nightwing finished the first new tradition.
"Thanksgetting tradition #2!" Raven continued. "Eating, whatever food you want!" Snapping her fingers, Raven sent the Thanksgivings dinner to a random charity kitchen so that thinking of pizza, ice cream, cake, donuts, cupcakes, sugary cereal, etc.
"Thanksgetting tradition #3!" Cyborg went on. "Presents, booyah! Raven conjured multiple presents for each of them. Cyborg got a buffer to keep his metal body shiny. Beast got electric shoes with lights. Starfire got one of those bottom heavy punching bags that come back up after you punch them down. Nightwing weirdly got kale chips. Raven gots jewels for her forehead in 10 different colors. Jinx got a sleeping mask with open eyes to jokingly show she's awake even if she's sleeping.
"Best Thanksgetting ever!
A/N: Okay, this chapter was super short. Thankfully, the next one will be much longer, with a much more interesting plot. A plot that's underutilized that I'll bring to the forefront.
