Raven and Blackfire sit on either side of you on the couch, Blackfire practically on your lap.
"Y'know," Raven says after the others start their game, "you two really surprised me."
You and Blackfire look at each other before looking at Raven.
"How so?" you ask.
"With this change of heart," she says. "Just because you two got married, you've stopped being criminals. Or at least, stopped committing crimes."
"Yeah, that is surprising," Blackfire says. "I guess it's because we don't need to steal anything any more. We're fine with what we have now."
The three of you quietly watch television as the others play G'blingor, occasionally overhearing what they're saying.

At sunset, you're stomach grumbles.
"I guess it's dinner time," you say, smiling and chuckling.
"Maybe we should head home," Flashfire says. "It'll be dark soon, after all."
"Aww, so soon?" Blackfire says.
"I agree!" Starfire says. "Sunset is too early to end such a wonderful Blorthog!"
You think for a moment, knowing that your current home--the cottage in Germany--is in a part of the that is already in night time anyway.
"Perhaps we can have dinner here," you say. "What's a few more hours spent with family and friends, right?"
Starfire and Blackfire cheer, and head to the kitchen.
"We shall make our favorite Blorthog dinner!" Starifre declares as she pulls out several metal pots.
"Boiled Flernerlocks!" Blackfire exclaims, pulling out big sausages from the Titans' refridgerator.
Cyborg and Beastboy shout "MEAT", but while Cyborg sounds excited, Beastboy is disappointed.
"Do not fret, Beastoboy," Starfire says. "I shall make a plate of delicious veggies!"
Beastboy smiles as the sisters begin working on the meal.
Raven is still sitting at the couch quietly as your sister walks over. The energetic Flashfire talks to the reserved Raven. They seem to be getting along, since you see them both smile.
