Tori gently put down the two white pills by the nearly empty cup. He’d take ‘em or leave ‘em, but she really suggested taking them. They stopped the pain, what’s not to like? Alright, so there was liver damage, but that was only if you took eight a day for fifty years or something obscene like that. Taking two after a car crash, not something to worry about in the least, especially if he was jumping around in excitement like this already. She couldn’t help but smile, at his own excitement and seeing that he was pretty much okay.
“Please, how did you come to meet Beast Boy?” Tori looked back at Star, dropping her eyes down again. Now that she was less jittery, less high-strung, her paranoia was fluttering as well. Not such a good thing when she had a very good reason to be paranoid, her pupils only allowing a small rim of iris to show behind their widened state. Let alone being a little intimidated-besides the fact Star was gorgeous, she knew how powerful she was. She had been at the receiving end of her punches and bolts quite a few times by now, and they weren’t fond memories. Sparring with Robin was one thing-they were close to the same level, and he was just plain old fun to mess with. But when Star could burn her with literally one glare, well…It was clearly a whole different ball game.
“I was in the park,” she began a bit nervously. She didn’t want to admit her weakness for adorable animals, or cause Star to think about her friend being hurt again. The former seemed to be the lesser of the two more worrisome evils, and it was nice to go with the truth when she could. She’d have to start lying soon enough, and lies were always more effective when there was some truth in them, let alone making them easier to keep straight. “And I saw this green dog, and I was all, ‘aww, how cute!’. So I went to pet him. Then I looked and was like, ‘woa! He’s green!’ and figured that there couldn’t be many possibilities for why there would be a green dog, and Beast Boy seemed to be the only option.”
She smiled, but now what? Ask how Star and BB met? Or would that be a bit too nosy? Most likely. She looked over to the joke book Beast Boy was still laughing at, cracking her own fingers half-nervously half-habitually. She hated awkward silences-silence was fine, but not awkward ones. And she would like to get along with these guys-out of costume, at least. “So what did you find for the other Titans?” It seemed a good a question as any.

Beast Boy’s reaction was the most warming sight of the whole day, to see her friend look this happy was a joy in itself and very worth the effort of buying the gift. Starfire hugged him back giggling as she did so, she had not expected his reaction to be this joyous but it was not an unwelcome reaction in the least. “You are most welcome, I am glad that it pleases you” she said a smile moving over her lips again as she made a sound of contentment, would everyone be as happy as he was? Well of course they would appreciate the gifts regardless but she hoped that they would be things which they would enjoy, whether it was crystals in Raven’s case, or the tool set she had bought for Cyborg.
Starfire drifted over to the sofa following Beast Boy as he walked over to Tori, grabbing the drink she had gotten him, she seemed nice enough, if a little quiet perhaps but she didn’t mind overly, after all Starfire was loud enough for everyone. Silkie moved along the back of the sofa getting close to Tori, staring at her with his beady yet undeniably cute eyes, he was curious about her, much like he was with any newcomer to the tower, but he rarely saw new people anymore and this was a treat for him. He gurgled and seemed to smile at Tori as he curled up on the back next to her, it seemed that he was at ease around her which was a good sign as far as Starfire was concerned.
She giggled when she heard Tori’s explanation of how she had met Beast Boy; she loved animals although like she said how many dogs were green other than Beast Boy? “I am glad that he found someone to help him” she said her curiosity quenched for now, but it would most likely rise again, when she could think of more questions to ask her. Whe she mentioned the other presents Starfire clapped her hands together excitedly and began reeling off what she had bought rather quickly, perhaps with too much excitement for most. “I bought Raven some crystals and Cyborg a tool set and I bought Robin some of ‘the gadgets’, although I am unsure what they all do”.

*Rolls in the Muse Car*
“I was in the park,” As she began the story he looked towards the tablets she had placed on the table before looking at them with curiosity, only to pick them up and study them. It was just unusual for him, as like many of the other Titans, medication was rarely around. But if Tori had suggested them just by motions, then he would surely take them, he trusted her already. He picked up his glass, placed them both in his mouth and drank them easily before giving a strange shiver. Now THAT was horrible, but if they would help, then of course he was satisfied. He looked back to Tori and Star with a strange expression before giving a smile.
“And I saw this green dog, and I was all, ‘aww, how cute!’. So I went to pet him. Then I looked and was like, ‘woa! He’s green!’ and figured that there couldn’t be many possibilities for why there would be a green dog, and Beast Boy seemed to be the only option.” It was that obvious wasn't it? He find it annoying that him being green was obvious for people to tell who he was (if they knew WHO he was of course), but who didn't know it was Beast Boy!? He remembered the time they tricked him and made him dye his skin brown for an entire week, he was actually pleased with that in a way but still, it did annoy him, he liked being green, it made him 'unique'.
“So what did you find for the other Titans?” He turned to Star before taking his feet off the table. He thought for a moment before having the urge for Tofu! Standing he kept an ear out for Stars words as well as Tori's to show he wasn't rude and ignoring them as he made his way over to the kitchen. “I am glad that he found someone to help him” He was thankful too. “I bought Raven some crystals and Cyborg a tool set and I bought Robin some of ‘the gadgets’, although I am unsure what they all do”
He knew instantly that each of these gifts would satisfy the Titans as much as the book did for him. Well, not so much Robin or Raven maybe, but still they would appreciate it. Opening the fridge, he studied the shelves, some strange foods from Star, Cyborgs favourite snacks before finding a large draw, pulling it out, there was almost at least 50 peices of Tofu all stacked in squares. He smiled before taking out a few squares, closing the fridge and heading back to the sofa, but as he did, his glimpse was caught to the window and outside, strangely enough, it was raining.
Unusual weather, it confused him slightly, but shook the thought aside before nibbling into his Tofu. Hmmmm... Tofu.... "Want some?" He gave off a smile before laying his hand out to offer the small cubes of Japanese non-meat products.

Tori couldn’t help but wince as Silkie came over. He was a bug. A larva. But at the same time, he was so adorable, her mind spun. And the gurgling…She couldn’t place if it was gross or endearing. She looked away, not wanting to show how little affection she had for the thing, before it cuddled at her side. Instinctively she reached down to pet, it surprised at how warm and soft it was. Not sticky and gross, smooth and gentle. She looked back down at it, and she contained herself from hugging the thing to death, instead picking it up and placing it on her lap. It was all the self-control she had, just to keep petting it and not make annoying small-animal noises. She would not stoop that low, if she could help it.
She watched Beast Boy take the pills and couldn’t help but laugh. They were swallow-able! Tasteless! Did he chew them or something? They weren’t bad at all, was he just being dramatic? Possibly. All the people she ended up meeting were rather dramatic, but she’d rather have them being dramatic about this stuff than what she usually ended up with. Much less silly, most of the time. She scratched Silkie gently, who at least seemed to enjoy it, as Starfire answered her question. “I bought Raven some crystals and Cyborg a tool set and I bought Robin some of ‘the gadgets’, although I am unsure what they all do”. She smiled and nodded, the gifts seemingly fitting. The gadgets caught her attention, although she doubted they would be anything she’d see when (even if it was eventually) they fought.
“Mind if I take a look? I could probably figure it out, my dad’s an engineer,” she explained, although she doubted she’d need any engineeri…ical… knowledge to do so. If she went to the mall, sure they had odd gadgets, but nothing dangerous and top-secret. But you never know…even if it wasn’t top-secret, it could quite possibly be dangerous. Maybe it was a Korean knife-thrower or something. Oh, how her imagination escaped her. It would be interesting to see what the alien found and couldn’t figure out.
“Want some?” Tori looked at the food, her stomach rumbling. It was lunchtime! And there was food! She wasn’t a vegetarian by any means, but that didn’t mean she didn’t like tofu. Actually, she liked most foods, and was always happy to try stuff. “Yes please!” She said eagerly, doing her best not to snatch a piece and pop it into her mouth. Mm. Vegan food. She chewed thoroughly, the texture that bothered most people not an issue at all-it was tofu, that how it was supposed to be. “Ever tried fried tofu?”

Starfire moved to the side slightly as Beast Boy got up from the couch, allowing him to pass by more easily before she moved back to her previous position, leaning on the arm of the couch as she stared at Tori. “Oh thank you, I would be most grateful of your assistance” she cried excitedly moving away from the couch to rummage through her bags once more for Robin’s gifts. She returned to the couch a few moments later with a package in hand, wrapped in the same manner as Beast Boy’s had been. It would be simple enough to re-wrap it later, but she was beginning to wish she had not asked for everything to be gift wrapped, still it gave her a chance to put a more personal touch to the present.
She moved aside again as Beast Boy returned from the kitchen with some Tofu, she had tried it a few times and found it to be an interesting earth food, albeit a little bland for her tastes, then again her tastes were not exactly normal anyway. She handed the package to Tori before turning to the window looking out at the rain herself now, it had not been raining when she had left this morning nor had it been raining when she had come back, how quickly the weather changed on this planet. Silkie moved on the couch, sensing food and he looked up at Tori as she took some of the Tofu, he gurgled, his way of begging perhaps, either way he was now looking much cuter than before.
Starfire smiled as she watched Silkie before a flash of lightning broke outside and she jumped with fright as the rumble of thunder followed. “Eek!!” she cried, hiding behind the couch quickly, she did not much like thunderstorms, the sounds happened so quickly and the flashing lights, well they were scary to her and plenty of other people on earth too. “I still do not understand why it does that” she said peering over the top of the couch.

“Yes please!” His eyes widened and glistened. No one had ever been so eager for Tofu before, he almost fell in love instantly there! “Ever tried fried tofu?” His mouth was in a large 'o' gawp before it changed to a wide squiggly smile. "YES!!" before without hesitation ran back to the kitchen whipping out a frying pan quickly and chucking some Tofu in there. The Titans NEVER trusted him with cooking, assured, but they weren't here. Well. Except for Star! “Oh thank you, I would be most grateful of your assistance” He overheard the conversation between the two, quite glad both were getting alone more. He returned to flicking around Tofu in the pan before letting them cook with that fried taste.
“Eek!!” Not only did the lightning and thunder scare him, but Star's cries. “I still do not understand why it does that” His instant reaction sent him flying backwards and taking the frying pan and Tofu with him causing a loud crash on the floor, luckily he hadn't landed on his bad arm and it was fine in any case, but it had caused fried Tofu to land on his head and a strange confused expression on his face as the sauce from the cooking dribbled down him. He made a grumpy expression before tasting the Tofu in his mouth. "Hmm" he sat there on the floor with a pan on his head. Tofu cubes dropping basically in his lap, only to simply scoop it up and nibble at it. "Heheheh."
BB sat there on the floor. The pain seemed to have gone, those tablets seemed to had done the trick. Collecting himself, he stood before wiping the Tofu off and the little added sauce he put in there before placing the Frying Pan aside on the unit. He looked a state. Placing a hand on the back of his head he took himself to the door. "I'm gonna get cleaned up, I wont be a second." He gave a wide grin before quickly darting through the doors with an embarrassed smile, almost blushing. He'd just made a state of himself in front of two girls. Great going Beast Boy!

What had she said? Was tofu really that rare a taste? It was food. She’d eat it. She was a teenager, that shouldn’t be surprising! At least, in her mind. She watched Beast Boy’s face, her chewing slowly down before he sprinted off to cook. Wait. He was cooking for her? She turned back to get a better look, tossing a piece of tofu into Silkie’s begging mouth as well. He was cooking! It had been forever since she had a meal she hadn’t cooked (or bought), and it actually smelled good. She knew she should say he didn’t have to, but she was really hungry, and he was really excited…What the heck. Free food.
“Oh thank you, I would be most grateful of your assistance” Tori just smiled and shrugged, gently taking the wrapped package. She felt a bit bad for opening it, but if Starfire was eager, it was okay. Still, she did so gingerly, trying not to rip the paper, or rip it minimally. Many of the gifts were pretty straight forward-a laser pointer (always handy, and there actually were a million different uses for them if you were creative enough) and an electric picture-frame, showing a slide show of images from a memory card. However, there definitely were a few she had to figure out as well. One she managed to understand was a cork-opener, just like her dad had (and used probably when she wasn’t in the house). Not only did it pop out the cork, it held onto it, and put it back in, while looking sleek. Nifty, but useless if the Titans tended to abide by the law. Another one she nearly sliced her hand on, a self-cleaning pocket knife with a little flashlight at the end of the hilt. The last looked like…a piece of bread. She tossed it between her hands, finding it plastic and hollow, opening a secret compartment inside. Ooh. Sleek. If you kept bread in your room, of course.
“Eek! I still do not understand why it does that” Tori hadn’t even flinched at the lightning, looking up to the windows. It was gorgeous, spectacular. She smiled, placing the gifts neatly back together, then whirled around to see Beast Boy crash and fall. Oh no! The food! She’d still eat it. Easily. "I'm gonna get cleaned up, I wont be a second." She nodded and gave him a look that said ‘good idea’, watching him run off. She looked back to the tofu, her stomach growling, half thinking of just standing up and finishing it. Buy she was too lazy, and if Beast Boy wanted to make it…at least, she justified her laziness with that.
“You mean lightning?” Tori confirmed, looking for something else to grab her attention rather than her rumbling tummy. She looked at another flash of lightning, counting in her head to see if the storm was coming or going. It was coming, and by the time she figured that out she had somewhat-simple explanation as to why lightning did that.“No one really knows. Lots of stuff that happens in the atmosphere could have a part, like ice in clouds, solar winds, and like winds and atmosphere pressures.” She had no idea how good Starfire’s English really was, or how much she did or didn’t understand, but she tried to explain it simply.

Silkie chewed the tofu, content now that he had managed to gain a piece, it seemed he was good at begging after all. Starfire stood sharply jumping up from the back of the couch, retreating a little as she heard Beast Boy crash to the floor with the tofu. She stared at him for a long moment, her eyes wide with shock as she watched the sauce dripping down his face, she wanted to laugh but chose not to, being more worried that he had injured himself. She was going to help him but he rushed out of the room so quickly that she did not get the chance to say anything let alone do anything, she bit down on her lower lip moving round to sit on the couch next to Tori hugging herself as she tried to ignore the weather outside. Silkie sensed Starfire’s nerves and wriggled off of Tori’s lap making his way across the couch to her, nuzzling her leg gently, making a sort of cooing sound.
Starfire picked him up and cuddled him gently looking back at the storm before looking to Tori with a smile, she was feeling a little more relaxed as Tori explained the reason why the storms happened, she knew little about atmospheric pressure or whatever she had called it, it was interesting none the less but she hadn’t really understood it that much. “I still do not understand fully, but I am grateful for your attempt to explain it to me” she said with bright smile. Tori seemed much more comfortable now than she had been a few moments ago, perhaps she had scared her somewhat, as she had seemed rather shocked when she had walked in, or perhaps she was merely shy? Whatever the reason, she was glad she was now calm around her, and Starfire liked making new friends.
“I wish that I had not frightened Beast Boy, I hope he was not damaged because of me” she whispered looking a little saddened, if she had not had such a fright herself perhaps he would not have dropped the sauce allover him, let alone the tofu, and she could not help but feel guilty for that. He had seemed ok when he had run off to clean himself up, but how could she be sure? Perhaps she was worrying far too much?

Note the random smiley at the end of the post!
He walked down the corridor looking for the bathroom before deciding to head to his room. Touching a small button, BB took himself inside the messed up room before whipping off the Tofu covered clothes and replacing them with the same Doom Patrol outfit. Quite satisfied, but still, he smelt like fried Tofu, nothing unusual there. Walking himself out quite quickly before heading down to the bathroom. While this was happening, he was thinking of what the girls could've been talking about, but kept a firm smile as he thought. He whipped himself in the bathroom before cleaning himself up, wiping his face and sticky Tofu covered arms with water, only to morph to a dog, shake himself off and head outside the door.
The morphing no longer hurt, thanks to Tori, he was very greatful for her help surely. He trotted down the corridor, still being light and dainty on the bandaged leg/arm before making his way through those automatic doors. A wide smile planted on his doggy face before he headed towards the sofa, he came in like he was a nice new sparkling green before he hopped on the sofa with the two girls. If Cyborg or Robin was here, they would've killed him. 'No Dogs on the sofa' speech would've been stated, but he knew that Star had no idea about that and knew she wouldn't mind, BB always enjoyed being with Star and Cy the most, Robin was too serious and Raven was... well... Raven!
He curled up quite comfortingly as he watched Silkie enjoy his Tofu before completely remembering he was going to make them something to eat. Perking up those ears he slowly took himself off the sofa again heading towards the kitchen, he morphed back quickly before whipping out more Tofu and chucking it in a pan and started to cook it quite happily, he put a few other things in there too to add flavour, and after a short moment, placed a heap of fried Tofu onto a single plate to share. Quite satisfied, BB took it over to them before placing it on the table "Help yourself!" Giving a wide smile before he morphed back to a dog, leapt on the sofa and settled himself besides Star, Silkie and Tori, with his head resting on Tori's lap, giving a cute face and wagging tail.
Nothing could be better then being surrounded by friends. AND TOFU! :D

“I still do not understand fully, but I am grateful for your attempt to explain it to me”. Tori couldn’t help but smile with her shrug. Starfire’s positive energy just radiated out-literally, Tori could feel her warmth against her pale skin even from where she sat, her senses enhanced as always. She couldn’t help but vaguely wonder if she could get a tan just by hanging out with her. She watched her cling to Silkie, feeling a bit bad for wanting to keep holding Silkie when the girl was scared, and having no idea how to help her with her fear, since Tori herself didn’t fear thunderstorms. Spiders, yet, you just squish them. You can’t squish a thunderstorm.
“I wish that I had not frightened Beast Boy, I hope he was not damaged because of me”. That caused Tori’s head to whip around real fast. Shock covered her face-they were Teen Titans. Falling in the kitchen, not so big a deal. It was a bit silly in her mind, but surprising enough to keep a smile off her face. She quickly put herself back together, watching Beast Boy bound back in and back out of the room. “You guys fight guys like Killer Moth,” she began, although thinking that villain may not be the best example of villains. He had caused quite a bit of damage and chaos, but still…moths. That was just kinda gross. “On a daily basis. I think he’ll be fine slipping in the kitchen.” There. Her attempt at comfort. She clearly wasn’t very good at it unless it was something more…not important, maybe, but in the lines of a car-crash.
“Help yourself!” Dangerous words when spoken to teenagers. Tori gingerly took a piece, not wanting to act like a pig in front of new friends. She attempted to eat at a somewhat normal pace, keeping her movements to a minimum as to not disturb Beast Boy’s head on her lap. Clearly, he was feeling better-Tylenol was amazing-and she scratched his head with her tofu-free hand. She smiled while chewing, saying, “Thanks Beast Boy, it’s really good!” and doing so without having any of it fall out of her mouth, her hand in front of it so they didn’t see the chewed up mess inside.
She absentmindedly scratched Beast Boy’s head, soon eating her fill of tofu-and, admitting, that being most of the plate-watching the lightning flash. She even began to hum to herself a happy tune, probably something Disney lurking at the back of her mind, when she tensed. She bit her lip to keep from swearing in front of the Titans (even though Beast Boy had already heard her curse, it still wasn’t the best habit, and Star certainly didn’t need to learn those words). English. She looked over her shoulder, spying a clock. She had time, yes, but the storm was just coming closer and she really didn’t want to leave. She sighed, leaning back and slouching a bit against the couch. Eh. She’d skip English for today, apologize tomorrow, come early to class for the next couple weeks, and give effort in her homework. That always worked. So she continued her humming.

Starfire let a smile grace her lips once more as she shrugged, perhaps she was overreacting a little to what had happened to Beast Boy, it was true that they did face danger on a daily basis and they had been in worse scrapes than a mere slip in the kitchen. Still it was in her nature to worry about minor accidents that befell her friends and although she did try not to get upset over every minor issue, it was a hard habit to break. “You are right, I should not worry so” she said her smile growing wider as she gave Silkie an extra tight hug before sighing with contentment. It wasn’t often that storms happened here, it was usually bright and sunny, with the exception of winter, but of course they did have the occasional rain shower and Starfire was pleased that hose were few and far between, especially where thunderstorms were concerned.
As Beast Boy returned Starfire followed him with her eyes, he was clean now, and thankfully not seeming to be upset in the slightest about the accident, and he wasn’t bothered about having to whip up another batch, Beast Boy really liked cooking and so did Cyborg but of course their differing tastes sometimes led them to have arguments, which were sometimes amusing. Even if the incident with the tofu had worried her, it had been funny, and she found herself stifling a giggle as the image of Beast Boy sitting there dripping with sauce re-entered her mind. As he walked back from the kitchen with another plate of tofu Starfire leaned forward to take one piece for herself and of course one for Silkie who gobbled it eagerly with a loud chomp and a happy gurgle. “Thank you Beast Boy” she said popping the piece she had taken into her mouth.
She watched Tori as she ate, from the way she was eating Starfre could see that she really seemed to enjoy tofu, more than Beast Boy perhaps? Well either way he had found a friend that he had quite a lot in common with, and although she was not normally one to make connections between people, she could not help but notice how close Beast Boy and Tori seemed to be, and how comfortable they were around each other, considering how they had only just met. The young Tamaranean giggled, and continued to watch the two with intrigue, cuddling Silkie all the while, it was sweet, to her at least, sort of how she and Robin were before they had kissed, and whilst she may have gotten the wrong end of the stick about Tori’s feelings, Beast Boy’s were an uncertainty.

Wow. o.o Lack of muse... “Thanks Beast Boy, it’s really good!” His tongue hanging out and tail wagging as he smothered her face with his wet dog kisses again before settling down again on her lap. Murring to the comfort of the scratches to his head. “Thank you Beast Boy” As of course, BB was more than happy to let them eat and take whatever they want, and Tori was now too. Ever since BB had met Tori, he was thankful, greatful, and all those other feelings that he knew knew he had. He heard Star give a quiet giggle (sensitive hearing as a dog, nothing escapes it!) before tilting his head in confusion before lifting himself up, turned around and joined Silkie in resting with Star.
He looked up to her with those sad eyes before quickly morphing into a kitten, and giving a peaceful cute meow. He knew in anyway that Star could not resist the face, he'd done it so many times and would end up being almost squished to death, but he did love it, and enjoyed making others smile with his ability. Now others would think that morphing into different animals and being green was unusual and weird, and it was, but Beast Boy was proud of his abilities, at least he could get into small spaces, destroy things bigger than he was in human form and hold the strength of a dinosaur even, something exinct would live on in the form of Beast Boy surely.
Now he did envy the other Titan's talents, and he did like Raven, not for what she is, but for who she is. It bought back memories of when she hugged him every time Star would give him a death squish, but he would always give off a contented purr and snuggle, he loved it, who wouldn't?! He loved his friends, and of course would do anything for them, risk his life, and right now, Tori was a new gained friendship, and he wouldn't let it be lost, and he wouldn't lose her either. He turned his head to Tori before a friendly cute kitten smile, his mind filled with many different thoughts which no other could read the mind off.
He was just greatful. Grateful that he had friends. Like the ones he has now.

Grateful grateful grateful. Everyone was grateful. Tori was too, but she had dwelled on it long enough for her taste. Now she was just getting nervous. She hadn’t skipped any of her classes before, besides PE, but that didn’t even count as a class. The thought of skipping English was really beginning to bug her. It was a real class, not to mention she loved it. The teacher loved her too, and she really didn’t want to disappoint him. She was a star student, she had no shame in admitting it, at least in her own head. And she really liked the book, not to mention the fact she probably had a quiz to take.
As Beast Boy moved his head her leg started to tap, and she knew she had to go back. Even if it meant braving the storm, she had to get back to school. She stood up, cracking her neck and twisting her back from side to side. She pulled her bag back over her shoulder, smiling back down at the pair. As nervous and rather embarrassed as she was telling them this, she was relieved at the same time as well. “I’ve gotta get back to school, free periods ending.” She shrugged as if it was nothing, tucking strands of hair behind her ear. She waved, making her way back to the hallway and front door. She winced, seeing the storm through the windows again, not liking it anymore since she was going to have to trek through it.

The young Tamaranean shuddered as another clap of thunder sounded, she hadn’t even noticed the flash this time, it seemed her friends were distracting her. Friend, yes she considered Tori a friend already, perhaps it would be premature for most, but then most people weren’t from another planet. She giggled as Beast Boy transformed into a kitten, extending her arms outwards to scoop him up giving him a warm cuddle, it was true she could not resist him in this form, who could really? He was just so adorable, and that meow, it was just way too cute to resist. She sighed with contentment as she placed him back on the couch next to her, gently stroking him watching him smile at Tori which caused her smile to widen, it seemed that Beast Boy really did like Tori as more than a friend perhaps, this was wonderful as far as she was concerned.
Starfire noted how Tori seemed to be getting somewhat uncomfortable, was the weather perhaps bothering her too? No, she didn’t seem much like the type to get scared by something like that, oddly Starfire quite liked the rain especially the sound it made when hitting the glass on the window, but she did not like storms and this one seemed to be getting worse every time she looked at it. She held Silkie close again, shivering a little before continuing to pet Beast Boy absentmindedly, it was comforting to have him and Silkie beside her, especially when she was frightened, she was lucky to have them both, though Silkie did not express himself the same way as the others did, he could still get across his emotions if it was needed. Silkie gurgled happily and nuzzled Starfire’s arm, he was enjoying the extra attention he was getting, but he didn’t really understand why.
The young Tamaranean looked up at Tori as she stood stretching herself out, she had to go? So soon, but she had not been here long, she had hoped that they could perhaps talk some more. She looked back to the window, noting that the storm was still in full swing, she could not go out in that! It was pouring down, what if something happened to her? Starfire was about to voice her opinion when she realised that Tori had left the room, she hadn’t even noticed her waving goodbye. Putting Silkie down quickly Starfire lifted off of the floor and flew after her, catching up easily as she wasn’t rushing away. “Please, you cannot venture outside, you could catch ‘the cold!’” she cried, her voice filled with genuine concern.

He purred so softly as Star gave him an irresistible squish, snuggling up comfortably before feeling himself be placed back on the sofa. He gave off another light meow before hearing footsteps, and gave off a small gasp, ears flat as he watched Tori stand. “I’ve gotta get back to school, free periods ending.” He morphed back quickly in that crouching position before sliding off the sofa and walking to catch her. Yet missed her. A frown formed on his face as those pointed ears of his sloped down, he stood there, with eyes sad as he watched her go as quickly as she came, arms loose down by his side before he looked to the floor with a sigh.
Only then hearing Star take to her small flight and go after her, her voice trailing as she went. “Please, you cannot venture outside, you could catch ‘the cold!’” He looked back up before running after her too, those doors causing a 'whoosh' as he ran to catch up with her, knowing that she had not gotten far as the door to come in, also needed to be activated to leave, strange, but it was for safety. He walked up before catching behind her, still walking at a pace. "Please. Tori. You can't go...." His ears pointed down again unsure what to say. He didn't want her to leave, he was the only other good friend which seemed to behold the same sort of style as him.
Who else loved Tofu as much as him? She helped him, and things like that, BB was sensitive about and would never let it go. If anyone helps Beast Boy, they are a friend for life. Unlike Terra. He took another deep breath as images of her flashed through his mind before he looked to Tori. BB knew that he knew her somehow, he just couldn't put his finger on it. "You.. You remind me of someone...." He tried to think about who. "...Someone... I've met before.." He liked Tori. He wanted to get to know her more, and when he knew that he'd seen her from somewhere.
He'd stop at nothing until he found out who and where he'd seen her from.
