Beastboy’s POV
I woke up and stretched. Trying to relax my sore muscles from yesterday’s brutal training. *God. Robin really knows how to push us to the limit*. After failing to fix it I sigh and try to think of how to relieve my soreness. *I could go see Raven… but I doubt she’d help me. Muscle cramps aren’t really important enough to use her magic on… but it’s worth a shot*. I stood up from my bed and started getting dressed, noticing the clock said that it was one in the afternoon. *Great, I’m sore and I overslept*. Tossing the idea of breakfast out the window I walk out of my room and hesitantly knock on Raven’s door. When I didn’t get a response I knocked louder… and again no response. *What’s going on with raven? I don’t hear her in the common room so she has to be in her room… so why isn’t she answering?* I hesitantly open her door before stepping inside. Taking in the sight of her room alongside the scent of lavender I only see a random hand mirror on her bed. Curiously I approached the bed and picked up the mirror, only then did I realize it was her mirror into her mind. Before I could put the mirror back it was dragging me in, and before I knew it I was standing in a familiar pink skyed field.
*Fuck. Raven is so going to kill me when she realizes I’m in here.* Before I can think of a way out of here I’m tackled by a bright pink blur. “Uhh… Hey happy”
Happy hops off the ground and drags me up with her “Hiya Beastie. Whatcha doing in Raven’s head again? Didn’t you get in trouble last time this happened?”
I sigh and shug slightly “It’s not like I meant for this to happen. I was just heading to Raven’s room to ask if she could help with my sore muscles and I picked up the mirror without realizing what it was before it was dragging me in here again.”
Happy giggles and starts to walk along the path “Oh well. You’re in here now, might as well start going to the exit.” I wordlessly follow along with Happy and smile softly when I hear her humming along to herself. After a while of just walking and humming random songs together, the scenery begins to change, seemingly losing color. I guess we reached Timid’s section of Raven’s mind. My ears perk up at the sound of what seems to be sniffling, and when I turn to investigate I find a gray cloaked raven curled into Happy’s side. I smile softly and wave slightly “How are you doing today Timid? Not too bad I hope”.
Timid hides in Happy’s side more and mumbles something, luckily I caught it due to my heightened hearing “I’m okay Beastboy… Thank you for asking”
I don’t know why… but Timid always makes me feel protective of Raven… But I shake that thought off for now and continue on with both Happy and Timid.
Raven’s POV
I sit inside nevermore with Knowledge and Passion, trying to sort out my feelings concerning a certain green shapeshifter. Suddenly, Passion smiles softly and starts humming some song I must have overheard somewhere. “What’s with the singing Passion?”
Passion just smiles wider. “Oh no reason Raven, I’m just happy is all”
I nod at her explanation and continue on with our conversation from earlier. “So… run me through the evidence one more time…”
Passion sighs and explains it all again. “After Malchior hurt us. Beastboy was the one we looked to for comfort. When Trigon tried to take over earth, we worried for him the most. And most obviously, I’m literally your passion, and I can’t get enough of being around him.”
I sigh “But why does that mean we like him? That I like him?”
Passion looks at me with a look of exasperation, “Girl, we don’t just like him. We Love him. You, and all of the rest of us Love him. That's what we’ve been trying to explain to you for the past few hours.”
