Work Text:
"Raven, I want to confess. Beast Boy, he took me here while y'all were gone; it was awkward. And if Beast Boy is really yours, you can have-"
Raven looks at Terra at the front entrance of Titans Tower. She's the only one awake among Robin, Starfire, and Cyborg. And she hugs her deeply.
"Raven, I-"
"Don't. It's okay. I know. Your past was similar to my own. Your darkness reflected my own, and I forgive you."
"But Beast Boy-"
Raven smiles at Terra. "Still isn't funny."
And for the first time, they cackled and laughed and giggled. Finally, it was over. And Terra did belong with Beast Boy after all. And Raven...
"I'm with Robin. I'm sort of sharing him with Starfire. I figured that romance wasn't in the cards for me."
"Guess we both had horrible people. You and Trigon. Me...and Slade." Terra looks down sadly. And Raven touches her arm.
"It's okay, Terra. He abused you and manipulated you. You didn't really have that much of a choice. Robin didn't either. You did what you thought was best, and you thought you were a burden. But you're not, Terra. Not anymore!"
"Thank you," Terra said. "Thank you...for saving me."
"After my dad took over the world."
"Yeah, that." Terra touches her shoulder and looks down.
"You never have to be afraid again. Welcome home."
