That was ... telling. A good snapshot of what could be a highly emotive situation.

Raven's comment really stung. She's "just" a hero. As if she can't allow herself to embrace her human side. That's awfully sad, I think.

Good story, though. Goes into Favorites.

This is really, really great. I love the relationship that you gave the two of them, the little 'moment' that they both had up on the roof.

It's so weird that I've watched this show for years and yet I never realized that Raven really is /just/ a hero. She knows nothing else, other than her life on Azarath. And I just really like that distinction.

This was lovely, I really enjoyed this too. :)

like like like. ok, new pairing im going to be searching out, speedy and raven.

Awwww, sweet! I love it when I find a decent Speedy/Raven fic.

Its nice that they could see each other as they wanted to be

I likey alot XD very nice ...you should consider doing more oneshots they rock

I liked this becuase it has feeling. Most stories don't, and the writer just writes what people want to hear. I write what I like to hear, because I can. And then I only hope people like it too.

:) Good Job!

How cute! They really do make a cute couple and that's certainly a deep perspective you've got there.. And I'm not a duckie! Although, sometimes I wished I were... Make sure you write more for your duckies in the TT fandom soon! Hehehe...

Very cool and original. I liked it a lot.

intresting

oh i'm a ducky! lol that was really good. i think u did an amazing job of portraying their emotions. i really liked it. sorry i don't hav time to write more :( but great one shot! it was awesome and the writing was beautifully tragic.

Aw, that was sweet. There really isn't enough Raven/Speedy bonding out there, whether it be as friends or something more. Glad to see that you're adding to the store of good stories in that category out there. _

This was really rather random. I kinda want to know the circumstances around this, and what specifically brought about Raven's self-pity, since there are definitely people there who aren't human either. I mean, if Titans East and the regular Titans are there that's already Starfire as the alien, and maybe Aqualad, since he's from Atlantis. A bigger party would have even more. Hm. Maybe just because Raven's not really a people person, even though she opens up well with her friends?

The hug at the end was sweet there. I liked it. Not your /best/ but still good. And it has Raven and Speedy in it; that's almost garauntees awesomeness. Plus, you wrote it. :D

Aww. A little introspection, a couple swigs of beer, some Raven/Speedy affection, your trademark attention to all the little details that make the ordinary extraordinary...it all wraps up into a lovely little oneshot. :)

As always, I click and read any new chapters or stories from you that happen to pop up in my inbox as soon as I see them, and as always, you don't disappoint. Wonderful flow, GREAT use of metaphor (which has always been one of your strongest writing traits) and you manadged to say everything you needed to say in only a thousand words.

Also as always, I have to complain about something, and in this case it has nothing to do with how you wrote the story. Jack Danial's is in fact Whiskey, not beer. You described it perfectly (except maybe for two people polishing off a whole bottle in less than five minutes and not going BLIND :) but got the name for it wrong. Unless you're talking about a watered down Jack's Down Home Punch wine cooler, which I doubt Speedy would drink. It's kind of girly. :)

So! Great story, can't wait to see more from you, I'll try to write something myself soon bla bla bla. See you later.

Wow. What an interesting perspective.

Especially of Raven's. Only a hero...

Makes me think.

There aren't too many stories out there that do that, so thank you.

Well written, albeit short but it gets the point across beautifully.
