#like someone asking Jamie why he reconnected with his dad and went to visit him if he's a piece of shit

just watched a bunch of Cut's Truth or Drink videos and it's making me want to read a ted lasso fic where they do it as a team building exercise (being open and honest and vulnerable all that)

After a couple minutes of silence, Raven started wiping away tears you hadn’t even realized were falling. Slowly you reached for her hand to stop her movements and took deep breaths, you repeated your words, “Ray, I’m so sorry,” you began to say before she interrupted you, “(Y/N) its ok I understand, I get it, why you left, why you just left a letter, it’s ok I forgive you,” she explained while trying to comfort you, wiping the stray tears away you looked at her trying to find the right words to say. “So you aren’t angry with me anymore? I mean I would understand if you were, the way I left wasn’t ideal…” you began to ramble and Raven rolled her eyes and interrupted again, “I was upset at you at first,” she began looking away from you, “I thought we were friends, and we had a more open and understanding relationship, when you left it felt like you threw me away, but not just me, the whole team, now after seeing what I saw,” she paused to look at your eyes, it makes you think she is a little more dramatic than two years ago, and you softly smile at that thought as she continues, “I understand why you did what you did, but what I don’t understand is why you didn’t ask for our help, from what I saw you and Dick teamed up by coincidence.” You sighed knowing how you were going to answer, but before you could Raven continued, “Don’t you dare give me that stupid answer you’ve been practicing in your head ‘because I didn’t want to see you guys get hurt’ isn’t a good enough answer (Y/N), you know we all have powers a side from Dick and Damian, even then we could have helped you,” she told you sturnly you sighed in defeat and began to tell her the truth knowing she didn’t see why you truly left but did see all the excuses you thought of to avoid this topic. “Raven I,” you paused thinking of what to say to her, knowing that she has been in your head, “Raven, I didn’t want to involve you guys in my personal problems, I felt like my problems were smaller than yours, I thought my problems were irrelevant, I mean compared to you guys, my problem seemed so minor, I’m just the one who has amnesia while you have your dad literally in your head, Kori is an exiled princess and Jamie is well stuck with that scarb until he dies, it just didn’t seem like finding out who I am or rather was seemed like a big priority on the list.” you finished  looking down at your hands refusing to meet Raven’s eyes. She slowly reaches out to take a hold of your hands and you slowly look up from your lap to meet her gaze. You knew she would understand better than anyone else but you were still afraid. You were afraid of what you might find would make you lose your friends, so instead, you decided to push them away to protect yourself, hurting them more than you intended to. You knew that coming back to the tower would just hurt not only you but the people you left, but Dick insisted that the Titan’s help was necessary, mission before feelings was how he saw it. You finally breathed out the breath you hadn’t realized you were holding, and Raven gave you a rare smile along with a warm embrace as you cried into her shoulder as she spoke again, “I’ve missed you (Y/N) it hasn’t been the same without you,” she said as you felt her tears wet your shoulder also. You two floated there for what seemed like hours, in reality, it had only been twenty minutes of the two of you hugging and crying, before slowly letting go of one another and starting to giggle. “I missed you too Ray,” you say with a huge smile on your tear stained face. ~ After leaving Raven’s room you head down the hall to what used to be your room. Before entering you notice someone attempting to hide in the shadows watching you, you tilt your head down, you close your eyes and say, “Damian come out I know it’s you,” to your surprise he comes out of the shadows rather quickly. “How did you know I was here no one can find me during team bonding exercises so how could you?” ‘Team bonding? Does he mean hide and seek?’ You think to yourself then smile before responding. “Dick used to do the same thing all the time, saying ‘you should be ready for an attack at all times’ so it’s become a habit to notice when things are slightly off,” you say truthfully with more truth than you are willing to admit. Damian scoffs at your response, “Yea right, it probably has something to do with your powers I assume I’ve tried to look for your file in the database and nothing, just like Raven before, honestly Starfire really needs to keep track of you people better,” he says mumbling the last part more to himself. You turn around slowly finally facing him, you notice his eyes slightly widened at the sight of your face, a little insulted you were going to say something but he beat you to it. “You were crying,” he states, you stayed quiet remembering why you were headed to your room in the first place. “Yes, I was.” You confirmed you both stood there awkwardly until he spoke up again. “Why were you crying?” He asked curiously, you couldn’t help but stare at him confused to why he would care, Damian hardly knew you, a couple of hours ago he thought you and Dick were a thing, which you still thought was gross. Wary of his sudden kindness you answered, “Because that’s what happens when you have an emotional moment with your best friend you haven’t seen in two years.” Not meaning to sound as condescending as it came out, you cringe at your own words. “Look Damian I just want to go to my room and lay down for a bit you can question me all you want later.” You said trying to make peace with the Robin. “That’s fine I have all the information I need.” He says over his shoulder, to which you assume he is trying to look cool, you sigh and finally entered your room. Nothing has changed, but it does look a little cleaner than when you left, you guess Raven or Kori occasionally cleaned or rather dusted in your absence expecting you to one day return to your home in the tower. You smile sadly at the sight, walking over to the bathroom to wash your face. After leaving the bathroom you notice that your picture by your bedside has been placed face down. You go to retrieve it examining the frame, then turning it over to reveal a group photo of the team when Jaime first joined your team, or rather family. In the photo were Dick, Kori, Wally, Karen, Garfield, Raven, Jaime, and yourself. You remembered Wally running around with the camera taking photos of everyone throughout the day, and Garfield suggesting we take a group photo so he could post it online, Karen happened to visit that day, Raven and yourself were having a meditation session before getting interrupted by both Wally and Garfield, barging into the training room, and Jaime who at the time was the newest member of the Teen Titans. He was still learning how to get along with his scarb, being very distant from most of the group, with the exception being the eldest of the group, Wally, Kori, and Dick. You felt yourself tear up at that memory wiping away your tears before they had a chance to pour us. Falling on your bed face first, you close your eyes and breathed slowly hoping that would calm you down. It did, you fell asleep for about 5 minutes before you heard Garfield pounding at your door. “Hey (Y/N)! You hungry we ordered pizza, it’s vegan your favorite,” he said in a cheerful manner, you scoffed before walking over to the door and opening it to reveal your green friend. “We both know vegan is your favorite, and I hope you ordered (Y/F/P).” You said with crossed arms smiling at him. With a toothy grin, Garfield hooked his arm around your neck and started walking with you toward the elevator. “You know I’m just playing, of course, we did, well, I did, as soon as you and Raven left the room Dick and Kori left for some ‘alone time’,” he paused to shudder, “And Jaime well kind of was quiet, he didn’t even respond when I said ‘Chipotle is a Mexican restaurant’!” he yelled out the last part hurting your ear. Seeing you wince, Garfield rushed out an apology before the door to the elevator opened. “It’s ok Gar,” you say as you both stepped into the elevator, Garfield pressed the button that led up to the kitchen and lounge. “But (Y/N/N)…” Garfield began to say before you interrupted him, “But nothing it’s fine Gar honestly,” You giggled then continued, “I missed you.” You say turning to him smiling as he suddenly hugged you. As he was hugging you the elevator door opened revealing Jaime looking a little surprised that you and Garfield were embracing each other.
a/n: I had a friend lecture me once about how Chipotle isn’t a Mexican restaurant and if you want authentic Mexican food go to a Taqueria.
