[Friday Afternoon as the world settles back to normal there's a message on the network]

ATTENTION EVERYONE

To apologize for being the biggest lame jerk for the last two days, Beastboy is inviting you to have some free Veggie Rolls on him.

Come collect your handmade sushi in the area in front of the Newbie housing and feel free to throw a punch at Beastboy for whatever horrible things he said. He was not in his right mind but feels terrible about all of it.

Anyone who was personally insulted by Beastboy may also request some other meal to make up for it. Anything it takes to earn forgiveness! Feel free to place your orders via the network, he will come to you!

[And so anyone who shows up, or places an order can meet with Beastboy and have a free meal on him. For his guilt is heavy. So...so heavy.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[the smallest, shyest grin spreads into a broad dopey smile]

W-who wouldn't be? It...it was amazing!!!

[In contrast, she gets even more shy.] St-stop! [A little laugh, and she can't believe she can be such a. Girl.

It all quiets down, and she can't help but feed on some of the insecurities.] You're-- I mean, you're okay with it because... I...it is...me. I don't want to make you...

...uncomfortable.

[looks confused and blinks getting redder]

Wha- because you're you?

[seems to think about this]

A pretty, smart, funny, geeky, tough girl?

[grins]

Why would I be uncomfortable?

[The compliments make it harder for her to talk, really.] B-Beastboy...

J-just because we're here, and...that happened, doesn't mean all that stuff back home didn't...happen. I sorta...was awful to you. ...A lot.

...yeah...yeah I know.

But you also tried to save me.

...Do you really trust me with this again? I...probably wouldn't.

Of course I would!

[puts a hand on her shoulder]

I already do.

[She's really still a bit floored...but she does smile. She can't help but smile.]

You're a really...amazing person, you know that?

Heh heh...[the fires burning in his cheeks could heat an ice age]

Well...I mean...it's just...you know when you asked me to come with you that night? Just...travel the world?

[and leave behind his family friends and responsibilities]

[Her face is an odd mix of confusion, shock, and quiet guilt.]

...Yeah. Not one of my finest moments.

[gives her shoulder a reassuring squeeze]

I can't tell you how often after that...and after everything, that I wish I'd said yes.

I dreamed about it, what it would be like.

[ now he looks flustered like he's expecting her to laugh]

Together...

...You woulda left everything? ...For me?

[Sounds like she can't even conceive that idea, imagine it's possible.]

...it's scary, and I'd have missed...well everything.

I know I did the right thing...but there was alot of times when I wished I hadn't. And that we'd just vanished into the night together.

It's selfish of me...but I couldn't help it.

[Out of instinct, she puts a hand on one of his on the cart, just...lays it there.]

It was awful of me to even try to ask you that, to begin with. You...you did the right thing, going back.

[No matter how much it hurts, the way it happened.]

Yeah...but I still think about it. You and me traveling the world. From city to city. I mean hey, when I can turn into animals that eat grass I can live about anywhere.

[Sheepish grin]

And I'd be with you.

You know that woulda never worked, not really. Not with everything else back there.

That's what's fun about fantasy. You don't have to be logical about it.

[Gives her hand a squeeze]

Bet sleeping in caves woulda been alot more cozy with a big furry me as your bed.

[Jeez he needs to stop saying things like that.]

You watch too much TV. [But her tone's gentle, teasing.]

So...what now?

[Ah...now that is the question isn't it?]

...another Veggie Roll?

[Artful dodge!]

[Who else knows how to change the subject better than Beastboy? Still, Terra rolls her eyes and smiles, snatching up another veggie roll.]

Don't mind if I do.

[passes her a plate and munches on a couple more. He really does like her, and kissing is...totally awesome. Maybe they should give it another shot? But he doesn't want to rush things...anymore then he already had to because of the glitch.]

We could kiss again?

[GOSH HOW FORWARD. The response is starting to choke on the veggie roll she's started and thumping her chest lightly to get it out.]

[OHGODWHATHAVEIDONE?!?]

I'MSORRYI'MSORRY!

[steps closer raising a hand to whack her back if she needs it]

[Sh-she's fine!! She's fine!!!! She coughs a little bit more and makes a few gagging noises, and the veggie roll goes down. Looks like she'd started to tear up, she wipes her eyes.

Super attractive, wow.] --'m, g-good! [Choke.] I'm good.

[phew! He visibly relaxes with grateful sigh of held breath and face palming]

Sorry...I thought you'd laugh. Flirting fail.
