"We can eat on the road whenever you're hungry. We can finish off the tacos and start fresh tomorrow."

"Alright," Raven says. "Let's see what's on the radio."

"Oooh~!" Raven says. "Shakira~ Shakira~!"

"You like Shakira, huh?"

"This one, definitely," she says. "My hips don't lie and I'm startin' to feel it's right~!"

"Your hips definitely don't lie," you say, getting her to laugh.

"Yes, thank you," she says. "My hips are very honest."

"The trumpets are great," you say.

"Yeah, they really are," she says.

"Oh, this is a good one," you say.

"Wow, 'standing there with nothing on,'" Raven says. "I wonder why you like it."

"I said ooh girl," you say, ignoring that comment. "Shock me like an electric eel~. Baby girl! Turn me on with your electric feel."

You drive on through Dennehotso, Tsegi, Tonalea, the amusingly named Tuba City, then Cameron and Gray Mountain. Raven brings out the tacos again around this time to have her dinner.

"Do you mind if I have both of the last soft tacos?" she asks.

"Yes, that's fine," you say.

She leaves the crunchy tacos in the box and heats up the soft tacos. Smelling the tacos does make you hungry, but you want to keep going to make good time. You also see the gas tank is starting to run low, but a road sign says a station is coming up.

After a few more miles, you spot the Country Club Mobil and pull in. You forgot to check which side the gas cap is on so you slow down and glance out at the back. Thankfully it is the driver side, so you just pull into a station, again taking Shadowfax into account. This unfortunately blocks the pump behind you, so you hurry to fill the tank.

The Challenger seems to have only an 18 gallon tank, give or take. You just need to fill it back up about 15 gallons. The price is reasonable, too, you won't have to pay more than $40.

Raven quietly finishes her tacos while you stand with the pump. With the car off, there's no radio so there is just the sound of traffic and the station itself.

"Um, are you almost done?" a rather snotty voice asks.

You look over to see a rather scrawny woman with denim cut off shorts and bright colored sandals, and honestly too big of a top because the side of her bra is showing. She has a minivan and you can hear rowdy children even though they're in the back.

"Yes," you say. "Almost."

The numbers tick by on the pump and you approach 15 gallons. You give the handle a couple of squeezes to get as close to that mark as possible, and let it stay at 14.984. You pay the $35.28 with credit and put the nozzle back on the pump. You put the gas cap back on, close the latch and get back in the driver's seat as you hear the snotty mother get back in her own vehicle.

"Is she really serious about waiting on that second pump?" Raven asks. "There's another pump that opened up in the time it took you to finish here."

"Well," you say as you start up the car, "some people are just... Ugh."

You look around and see the way is clear, then shift to drive. And then the lady honks on you!

"Are you serious?" Raven says.

"Just stay calm," you say. "We'll just leave her behind."

You pull away from the pump, make your way around to the exit, and pull back onto the highway.

"Can you believe this?" Raven says. "I think she was glaring at you as we drove away."

"It's alright," you say. "We'll never see her again."

You continue the drive but still have a couple of hours to go before reaching Grand Canyon Village and any place to stay.

A) Find a place to park and eat
B) Power through until you arrive

The Jinx arc was very amusing and I would like to see how Jinx ended up. If she ever matured/what happened to Kid Flash and how Raven would deal with her now that her emotions are "balanced out".

Meeting the Null family was fantastic, I loved all the scenes with the suitors they were hilarious, and them Greek relatives and they friends : * poifect.

I loved how villains were sprinkled out during R and R's various trips and I'm expecting Kitten to make one last return to make 3 appearances and top everything off.

I loved the minute details from Teen Titans that you expanded into their own stories that helped the worldbuilding so much; for example Tommy (I think), the dude Raven met at a party with the Blackfire episode. Overall you've done an amazing job with the story and it was a treat catching up on everything I've missed. Can't wait to see where you take it :)

thanks, that means a lot. and yeah I've been meaning to circle back to Jinx's own arc. we'll definitely get back to it before everything's finally over, tho.
