You Have Twenty Seconds

The rest of the team is currently taking care of processing the recent attack they just thwarted to ease police paperwork. The fact makes Beast Boy feel all the more alone in what he's been asked to do. Abandoned, even.

He speaks to Raven.

"...Hey. Thought you'd be here.. heh."

Silence. He's already expected it, so he decides to waste his time fiddling with his gloved fingers. There's some scratches and dirt on it. Probably from being kicked into the ground, he recalls regrettably.

He keeps quiet for ten seconds, just staring at his hand. It's important he looks as uninterested in the obvious as possible.

"Don't you wanna brood in, like, your room? You look way too cool to think in here."

He gestures at the rubble of the building they're in. It's funny how he almost forgets they're in one. Just goes to show the Titans fight crime literally anywhere.

Raven has apparently found herself a spot devoid of debris, still staring at the sky. Beast Boy isn't lying; she really does look amazing.

He scolds himself to look anywhere else (before she sees him blush) and decides to look up. Wasn't the sun up a few minutes ago?

It's been about five seconds.

He gives up and sits on the floor, some inches away from his teammate. He knows what space means to her.

Seven seconds. Wind tickles his elfish ears and sways the hem of his gloves.

They should be leaving soon, but he's not too keen on getting sent to the Underworld and back should he end up rushing her.

Nine seconds. Looks like he should try and-

"Beast Boy."

He almost beams. He sure does like getting noticed.

"Yeah?"

Plip!

She still looks ahead and wrinkles her nose. Maybe she's trying to look uninterested too.

"...It's raining."

It only takes a second for drizzling to evolve into a storm. However, it'll take longer for a green pterodactyl to bring a sneezing girl home.

Man I rewatched this show because they air some episodes like until now where I'm from and I never got to appreciate it when I was younger. Cus anime sucks and all that kid hipster thinking that TT is apparently an anime. I mean it looks like one but still. Speaking of anime...

This thing is loosely based from a scene of my favorite anime. Here's to hoping someone guesses before the Organization gets to me, Hououin Kyouma! Jk

This was meant for a little entry for the sixth day of bbrae week on tumblr. Admittedly I was a bit pooped when nobody saw it so I decided to post it here.
