#wait hold on a fucking second i need to translate his apron brb

[solarsleepless]

[ID: A drawing of two panels: the first is of Phoenix, eyes still closed, as he kisses Yoru on the forehead while saying "G'morning" and it says 'half-asleep' pointing at Phoenix, while Yoru blushes slightly, looking a little disgruntled, as he says "...Morning." The second panel has Jett and Neon looking at them with wide, disbelieving eyes, Kay/O next to them, wearing an apron with a binary code on it and the food on his tray falling as he drops it in shock, his face having an ?! on it, and Neon's hand has fallen on the plate, making it clatter and the food jump up at her, but she takes no notice. There's a slight gust of wind and a leaf implying Jett's powers are in use. End ID.]

A quick smorch for your rival in the morning has the whole table wobbling

Listen, I don't know who Raven and Kaldur EVEN ARE but I am extremely invested in this AU of theirs that you mentioned, I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS!

I started this on the bus today and you actually motivated me finish it, thanks anon.

Two disclaimers: every Teen Titans/Young Justice crossover I write has TT!Robin be Dick Grayson’s older brother Robert, nicknamed Robin. Also, I’ve never been in a restaurant kitchen for longer than .2 seconds.

Raven gripped her rescuer’s arm like a lifeline the whole minute and a half it took to walk to the kitchen, listening desperately to make sure Malchior hadn’t decided to follow them after all. The chef pushed the door open, sending about half the kitchen staff tumbling to the floor as he led Raven in before him. The door swung shut and she finally managed to breathe. One of the waitresses led her over to a little alcove full of serving trays as the staff grilled the chef that had helped her. As soon as her heart slowed to the same pace as her thoughts, she whipped her phone out of her purse and opened her friends’ group chat.

Raven: I just got rescued by the most handsome man in the world?

Cyborg: what did i do

Raven: Malchior showed up during my date

BB: OH SHIT

Raven: I guess he saw me in the window, because he pushed straight past the hostess and went straight to my table

Raven: I was in a booth so he just stood at the end of the seat so I couldn’t get out

Starfire: you should have let us kill him

Robin: ………………… star…………………………………

BB: she’s not wrong

Raven: David was in the bathroom and when he walked out he bolted before Mal even saw him

Cyborg: dump him

Raven: Thanks I was going to

Raven: I guess the hostess had gone to the kitchen when Mal showed up because one of the cooks came out

Starfire: is this the world’s most beautiful man?

Raven: Yes

Raven: He came up to my table and insinuated that he was my boyfriend and I was waiting for him to get off work, and offered to let me sit in the kitchen for the rest of his shift

Raven: Which is where I am right now.

Starfire: did you get his phone number?????????

BB: ABSOLUTELY get his phone number

Raven: I DON’T KNOW HIS NAME I’M NOT ASKING HIM FOR HIS NUMBER

Raven: Anyway, he has these super intricate serpent tattoos that go all the way down to his wrists

Robin: siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick

Raven: They are. 

Raven: When Mal wouldn’t let me out of the booth he pushed his sleeves up and asked if there was a problem

Raven: He went from harmless caring boyfriend to “I will fuck you up outside the bar” in 0.3 seconds just by shifting his weight

Raven: I saw all the blood rush out of Malchior’s face. It was incredible.

Robin: wait what restaurant is this

Raven: The Greek one in the town center

Robin: brb gotta check something

Raven looked up and caught The World’s Most Beautiful Man staring at her. They held eyes for a second, then both looked frantically away as her text notification went off and the pan he was holding burst into flames. 

BB: dude i think my cousin works there

Starfire: if raven doesn’t get his phone number PLEASE get it for her

BB: you got it boss

Raven: SHIT he looked at me

BB: ???????

BB: good look or bad look

The World’s Most Beautiful Man flipped over a cut of meat and looked over at her just in time to catch the tail end of her glance. Raven hunched further over her phone, pulling her skirt up onto the chair as a waitress passed by her with a plate of appetizers.

Raven: How am I supposed to tell if it’s a good look

Starfire: did you wear your lengha skirt with your cropped blouse

Raven: Yes? why

Starfire: then he’s looking you up

Raven: Translation please?

Cyborg: jfc rae he’s checking you out

Raven: HE IS NOT

She peeked through her hair and caught The World’s Most Beautiful Man staring at her legs.

Raven: Shit I think he is

Raven: I don’t actually know what to do in this situation

Robin: hey is the world’s most beautiful man black with a bleached undercut

Raven: Yes??? How do you know that

Robin: he’s friends with Dick

Starfire: is this the friend whose mother looks like Beyonce

Robin posted a picture in the chat of The World’s Most Beautiful Man wearing a tank top that showed off his tattoos, which spiraled up his arms like a caduceus and disappeared into his shoulders. 

BB: hol y shit you weren’t kidding

Starfire: he is so beautiful

Robin: no yeah that’s Kaldur, his entire family is ridiculously good looking

Cyborg: Raven, you’re my sister and I love you, but if you don’t get this boy’s dick I’m going to disown you

Raven: SHUT UP

Robin: you really should ask him out

Robin: he’s a good guy 

BB: already outpacing the rest of your dating history

Raven: Shut up garfield

BB: BUT AM I WRONG

“Hey.” 

Raven looked up to see the hostess, dressed in a faux tux jacket and a short skirt. 

“That guy finally left,” she said. Raven breathed a sigh of relief. “Do you need someone to walk you to your car?”

“My date drove me,” she said. The hostess winced. “I could call a friend, but they’ll take a bit to get here.”

“Take your time. We’re not going to rush you.” She grinned, first at Raven and then at someone behind her, before heading back to the front. Raven turned around to see Kaldur come over, sans apron, the shirt of his uniform slightly undone and the sleeves pushed up to his elbows. 

“I don’t think I caught your name,” he said, leaning against the table.

“It’s Raven. You’re Kaldur, right?” She smirked a little as his eyebrows went up. “I’m a friend of Robin Grayson’s.”

“Ah. Kaldur’ahm Jackson,” he said with a nod. “My shift just ended. If you need a ride home, I’d be happy to give you one.”

“I’d like that,” she said, fighting back a smile. “Maybe we could grab dinner on the way.”

“Ah, now you have my attention,” he said with a grin. “I can get my car and meet you out front.”

“Sounds like a plan,” she said, and glanced back down at her phone as he left.

Robin: seriously, you have the worst taste

Cyborg: from now on raven’s not allowed to date anyone who can’t provide three character witnesses and survive Star’s shovel talk

Starfire: was I not already a rule?

Cyborg: yeah but now it’s official

Raven: Update: we’re getting dinner and then he’s driving me home

Starfire: :D

Robin: *eyebrow waggle*

Cyborg: niiiiiiiiiiice

BB: GET IT 

Raven: I hate this fucking family
