Teen Titans Porn Story: Not Applicable Chapter One
Notes: Robin & Raven are fun to work with.P I think Raven has built all these walls
around herself, but Robin has experience dealing with people like that I
probably shouldve done this before Ravens Reward, but too late now.
This story assumes that Robin has not shared his true
identity with the other Titans.
well, its not like he ever takes off that mask!P And since no one ELSE has names outside of
their codenames
Summary: Robin teaches Raven a lesson in trust.

Robin sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he checked
the clipboard again.P Somehow, Batman
always made this look so easy he muttered.
You say somethin, Rob? Cyborg asked from his seat before
the massive computer.
Nah, Robin replied, leaning on his teammates
shoulder.P Hows the upload coming?
95% aaaaaaaanddone!P
Starfires bio is complete!P
Whos next on the list?
With a smirk, Robin shook his head.P Raven.
Okay!P Lemme just
check my files, andhuh.P Thats
weird.P Dont really have anything on
her.
I didnt think you would.P
Just enter her powers for now.P
Ill get the rest.
Cyborg turned around in his chair.P Uhhold on, Rob.P I know
youre the boss and all, butmaybe asking Raven personal questions isnt a good
idea, if you know what I mean.
Youre right, Cy.P I
am the boss.P Im also the one that
asked her to join in the first place.P
If she wont talk to me, then she wont talk to anyone.P But the fact is, we need this information.P It could save our lives one day, and I
refuse to lose any of you just because somebody valued their privacy.
Guess I never thought of it that way, Cyborg admitted
softly.
Well, thats why its my responsibility, not yours.P I have to think that way.P Robin turned and headed for the door.
Hey, Rob? Cyborg called to his friend suddenly.
Yeah? Robin asked, glancing over his shoulder.
Cyborg grinned at him.P
Love you, too, man.P Good luck.
Thanks, Robin chuckled.P
I just might need it.

Raven was not in a particularly good mood as she walked to
the kitchen that night.P Of course, she
wasnt exactly in a bad mood, either.P
To say she was feeling neutral wouldve been a good place to start, but
anything beyond that wouldve been pushing it.
Everyone else had long since gone to bed, which gave her
free reign over the whole Tower.P That
was just fine with Raven, for as much as she considered the other Titans her
friends, she was not in the habit of sharing her personal space twenty-four
hours a day.P Between Starfires nonstop
questions and Beast Boys continued attempts to get her to laugh at his jokes,
she barely had time for herself some days.P
Robin and Cyborg, at least, pretty much gave her all the space she
needed, and had thus endeared themselves to her for the time being (not that
she ever planned on telling them that).
PBut any thoughts of
Robin being on her good side came to halt when she finally sensed that he was
still awakeand waiting for her in the kitchen.
Automatically, Raven went on the defensive, wondering if she
should just skip the midnight snack and go straight to bed.
~You know hell just keep trying until he corners you,~
she reminded herself.P ~ Better to find
out what he wants and say no now, Raven.~
Arming herself with a slight scowl, Raven walked into the
kitchen.
Robin was seated on the far side of the table.P He looked up as she came in, but remained
silent.
She eventually noticed the two small tubs of ice cream on
the table.P One of them just so happened
to be vanilla bean, her preferred (not favorite, as that would imply she
enjoyed it) flavor.
Robin held up a spoon.P
A peace offering, he said, offering it to her.
Raven hesitantly took the spoon and sat down across from
him.P She had just picked up the vanilla
bean when Robin pulled out a small recorder and set it on the table.P Her gaze hardened.P If youre planning to pick up anything other than chewing and
swallowing, you had better put that away.P
Quickly.
Robin made no move to comply with her demand.P Raven, you know I have to do this.
No, you dont.
If you dont want to tell me directly, then at least set a
day aside to enter into the database.
No.
Robin frowned.P
Raven
What?
Why are you being so difficult?
Its a hobby, she snapped.
Robin shook his head.P
I dont understand why you insist on hiding from us.P Were your friendsat least, we want to
be.P But we hardly even know you, and
you wont let us get any closer.
If you want to remain my friend, Robin, then back off.
What if I said Im not backing off because I am your
friend?
Then Id say you dont know me very well.P A real friend would give me space.
A real friend would want to protect you from yourselfbut I
cant do that if you wont let me.
She glared at him.P
I dont need protecting!P No one
on this team does!
He shrugged.P Maybe
not.P But we ARE a team, and we work
together.P That means trusting each
other.
Then trust me when I say I dont want to talk about
this.P ANY of this. PRaven picked up her ice cream and stood up to
leave.
I promised myself I wouldnt do this, Raven, but youre
leaving me no choice, Robin said firmly.
Raven smirked.P What
are you going to do?P Hit me?P Kick me off the team?
No.P Im going to
show you something.P With that, Robin
reached up to take off his mask.P His
fingers were almost at his temples when his fingers locked up, halted by an
unseen force.
Stop it, Raven whispered, her eyes wide in fear in
disbelief.P You cant do that.P Itsnot fair.
Why not?P If I want
you to trust me, I have to be honest with you.P
Completely.
No, you dont.P I
could read your mind whenever I wanted.
But you wouldnt read that part.P Would you?
She didnt say anything.
Its one thing if you read my mind and find out my secret
identity.P Its another if I show it to
you willingly.P It means I trust you to
keep my greatest secret.
I wont let you do this, Raven stated.P I wont let youtrust me with that
information.
Robins expression softened.P Why not?
Itit could be used against us.P If something were to happen to meanyone could find you, if I
knew who you really were.
Maybe Id trust that you wouldnt tell that secret, no
matter what.P Robin locked eyes with
her.P Maybe I already do.
She shook her head.P
Dont be stupid, Robin.P I wont
allow you to endanger yourself this way.
Trusting people is all about taking risks, Raven.P You took a risk in joining this team.P What was the point if we never even get to
know you?
Cant you understand that sometimes I dont even trust
myself?! she cried.
Yes.P But if
something were to happen to you, something that only you understood, we
wouldnt be able to help, because you never told us about your past, where you
came from, or what can hurt you.P I
understand you dont want to be protected, Raven, really.P But being a real friend is wanting to
protect just the same, even when its not allowed.P At least give us the option of knowing what youre dealing with
inside.
She was silent for a long moment.P A compromise, Raven said at last.
Im listening, Robin replied.P
Illtell you everything.P
Her eyes narrowed.P But ONLY
you.P No one else finds out.P Ever.
Ever?
unless something happens to you, in which case I might even
tell someone else.P But for now, you are
the only one that will know.
Raven, you DO know that defeats the purpose of me
collecting this information for the database?
I dont care.P Im
only trusting you with this.P If you
keep your mouth shut, Ill know my trust was well-placed.P If you blab, Ill kill youand I wouldnt
trust you anymore, of course.
Okay.P I promise I
wont tell anyone whatever you tell me.P
But how is that a compromise?
You get your information and my trust.P I dont have to deal with whatevers behind
your mask.P Ever.
Robin frowned.P
Sobasically, you trust me, but you dont want me to trust you?
Not with that, at least.P
You could tell me something else you dont normally tell people.P She paused and smirked.P Boxers or briefs?
Robin turned bright red.P
Bothbut not at the same time.
Good.P So now well
be even.P Raven sat down and
sighed.P But theres one problem.
Whats that? Robin asked, sitting as well.
Were going to need a LOT more ice cream to get through
this
Dont worry, I went out and stocked up today.P Something told me your life story wouldnt
be a short one.P Robin slid the
recorder across the table to her.P Just
so you dont think Im cheating.
The recorder suddenly flew up and slammed into the table,
smashing itself into tiny bits.
Robin stared at the mess.P
that was very immature, Raven.
Raven shrugged innocently.P
Now I dont think youre cheating.
* * * * *
After breakfast the next day, Cyborg cracked his
knuckles.P Okay, Rob!P Got that bio for me?
Yup, Robin said calmly.
Great!P Lay it on
me!
Nope.
what?
Sorry, Cyborg.P But
everything Raven told me stays up here, Robin replied, tapping his
forehead.P That was the only way I
could get her to sit still long enough.
AwwellI guess as long as one of us knows.P He lowered his voice a bit.P Sowas it juicy?
Robin shook his head.P
It waslike a horror movie.P He
frowned.P A really, REALLY bad horror
movie.
You know, I wish I could say I was surprised.P Cyborg frowned thoughtfully.P But you know what this means, dont you?
Yeah.P Her life is
in my hands, Robin said gravely.P
Well, and my head.
Hey, just be glad you broke down her wall, man, Cyborg
replied, patting his shoulder.P Think
shell want to party with us from now on?
Robin shook his head.P
Not a chance.
* * * * *
~Wellnow youve done it,~ Raven thought to herself as she
stared out over the city.P ~ Youve
gone and willingly exposed yourself to Robin.P
Now youll be vulnerable to everything we face.~
She liked to think that Robin was capable enough to not get
captured.P But at the same time, he
didnt have any powers, either
~Cant think like that.P
Hes our leader for a good reason.~
Still, it was odd, knowing there was now someone who knew
her inside and out.P It was scary, but
at the same timealmost comforting, in a way.
~He was willing to share everything with me, without even
knowing who or what I really was.P I can
trust him.P I should trust him.P Ido trust him~
There you are, Raven!!! said a cheerful voice.
Raven turned to see Starfire and an excited green puppy
bounding across the roof to her.P With a
quiet sigh, she prepared herself for the overdose of affection that was sure to
come with them.
We have been looking all over for you! Starfire exclaimed.
Ineeded some time to think.P By myself.P She noticed
the puppy kept leaping up and down at her side, and finally consented with a
tiny pat on the head for it.
The puppy was clearly overjoyed and began to run around the
two girls, wagging its tail rapidly.
Beast Boy and I noticed you were exceptionally quiet at
breakfast, Starfire went on.P We were
concerned.P Is everything well with you,
Raven?
Im fine, butP She
managed a tiny smile, for their sakes.P
thanks for checking up on me, guys.
Oh, of course! Starfire replied at once with a sunny
smile.P That is what friends do for
their friends!
Im beginning to realize that, actually.P Lets go back inside.
I must admit to having another reason for seeking you out,
Raven, Starfire said suddenly.
Oh? Raven asked warily.
Beast Boy thinksand I agreethat you might need a hug.
Raven stared at her.
And, so you would not feel forced to hug him, we are both
here to offer our arms to you.P
Starfire held out her arms and smiled hopefully.
Beside her, the puppy suddenly became a green panda with
huge, watery eyes.P It reached out in
much the same way Starfire did.
Raven looked back and forth between each of them several times.
Feel free to initiate the hug at any time! Starfire
encouraged.
Um.P Right.P Feeling more trapped than loved, Raven
hesitantly moved towards Starfire, trying to ignore the blinding, joyous
expression that appeared on her friends face when she realized who had been
chosen to receive the hug.P She almost
made it look as if she were trying to hug a poisonous snake, rather than an
alien girl.
Starfire didnt seem to care, as she was still too excited
that Raven had chosen her over Beast Boy.P
As soon as Raven touched her, she wrapped the slightly smaller girl up
in a big, enthusiastic hug.
Raven was obviously uncomfortable, but tried to enjoy it.
But that was when the panda decided it couldnt wait anymore
and pulled them both into a huge, furry hug.
Doesnt the affection of your dear friends feel wonderful,
Raven? Starfire asked happily, pressing her face into the warm fur.
Crushed between the panda and the alien girl, Raven could
only think of one reply.P Ill be glad
to tell you, Starfirewhen I regain any feeling at all
The End.
If youre wondering why there are NO details of Ravens
history hereIm familiar with it, but I need to refresh my memory, as its
been a while.P I do know it probably
wont come up in the show, so I want to be careful with how much I involve in
my stories.P Other than that, did it
suck?PPP _
