🌿🍒 / robstar !
@ultmanias
starfire didn’t understand the earth holiday of the “christmas.” but she didn’t NEED to understand it because according to andy williams, it was the most wonderful time of the year. and if that was true, then how could starfire not love it?
her teammates tried to explain it to her–first, you have to bring a tree from outside into your home and then decorate it with lights and colorful glass orbs. then, you must not only bake the cookies, but also decorate those too. and you also must sing songs, skate on ice, and build people out of snow and houses out of ginger. AND THEN on the eve of christmas while you are asleep, the santa claus man that has been watching you twice will come inside your home, eat your cookies, and leave gifts at the decorated tree for you to open the next morning. starfire could not fathom how a single man could go into every home in one night. maybe he was the flash?
dick promised starfire that the santa claus was not in fact the flash, but rather a just story for children, much to her disappointment. but that did not stop her from enjoying the spirit of the holiday. she took the christmas VERY seriously. it reminded her of blorthog, and if this was the earth version of it, then she will do everything in her power to make it the best christmas ever.
one morning in the days leading up to the christmas, starfire found something hanging from the ceiling that was not there before. it was a green twig with red berries and matched the other decorations she and the titans had hung over the past few days. but this one was new. no one has previously told her what it was, where it came from, or why it was there.
but then, it dawned on her.
the tamaranean immediately raced to dick’s room. she knocked on his door until it opened, where she was greeted by a very sleepy dick who had clearly just been woken up by her.
“ dick, you must come quickly! i found it! ” before the boy wonder could open his mouth to protest, starfire had already grabbed him by the wrist and dragged him away. she took him back to where she was before and pointed to the twig hanging above them. when the princess glanced back at him, she expected him to be as OVERJOYED as she was, but found him too stunned to speak. did she accidentally hurt him with her strength? was his brain not yet awake?
“ it is the elf on the shelf! ” starfire explained happily. there was a pause for a moment, and then dick burst out laughing. she frowned, brows knitting together in confusion. was it not the elf on the shelf? “ oh no…i must be mistaken. this is not a shelf so it cannot be the elf on the shelf. but if it is not the elf on the shelf, then what is it? this is not one of those cookies that we use for decorations, is it? ”
“ no, star. it’s mistletoe. ”
mistletoe…starfire started listing every christmas tradition the titans have told her over the past few days, but mistletoe did not sound familiar to her.
“ what is the significance of mistletoe? is it like when we bring in the tree and other plants inside from outside? ”
“ kinda. except you’re supposed to… ” his voice grew quieter and face started to turn bright pink as he stumbled over his words, which only added to her confusion. she could barely catch him say “ kiss. ”
“ oh. ” green eyes blinked owlishly at him. she DEFINITELY has not heard of this christmas tradition before now. her cheeks burned a little hearing this, but she was not sure if it was from embarrassment for not knowing and dragging dick out here or for what was now expected of her. but as a lover of the christmas, she would be committed to every part of it.
starfire took a step closer to dick, leaned forward, and pressed a light kiss on his lips. it was much more brief than the kiss they shared when they first met, but it seemed to have almost the exact same effect on dick now as it did back then. the tamaranean could not help but find dick to be ADORABLE like this–sleepy and flustered.
“ i think this is my most favorite tradition of the christmas. ”
