"Well, yours, of course," you say.

"Oh?" Raven says, her smile still very naughty. "As I recall, I was watching a lot of it at first. Bravery was first up and she got to really give you her all. Passion and Joy were rubbing their chests against you."

"How was watching the different forms of yourself?" you ask.

"It was soooo hot," she says before another naughty laugh. "I looked so sexy at all those angles."

"Yes, you definitely did," you say. "You look sexy at all angles."

"Yeah?" she asks with a big smile.

"Oh, yes," you say. "But especially up close."

You kiss her on the lips and she makes sure there's lots of tongue. She ends up rolling off you onto her back and really goes to town now. You lean over to kiss her and support her head with your arm.

"Bravery was so eager and vigorous," Raven whispers while moaning. "Passion had such a naughty look on her face. Do I look like her right now?"

"Oh, yes," you say. "That same gleam in your eyes and curl to your smile."

"And then Bravery took me by surprise," Raven continues.

"That's right," you say as you remember for yourself. "How did it feel to make out with yourself?"

"From my own perspective, I was so flustered," she says. "It's kinda funny to say that I didn't think I'd make a move like that. I'm freakier than I thought."

"I was also surprised," you say.

"Yeah? Did you like watching the two of me like that?"

"Oh yes," you say again. "And even more so when it became three. Remember? Joy joined in with you and Bravery"

"Oh yeah," Raven laughs with delight hearing that, and uses her left hand to caress her chest while her right hand is busy. "I was stuck underneath myself, all folded up."

"Did you like being played with by your other selves?" you whisper into her ear.

"Mm-hmm~...!" she says while nodding. "And I enjoyed being the one toying with me, too. Joy and Bravery were both using Hope as a play thing."

"Hope? Is that prime Raven?"

Raven is too deep in her ecstasy at this moment to say anything but she does nod.

"The color blue is for hope," she manages to say. "I've always been the most optimistic part of myself."

Given her general disposition, you're a bit surprised to hear that, but you don't judge it.

"Help me up to the pillows," Raven says as she tries to move up the bed.

You scoop her up in your arms in the princess carry, which she seems to enjoy from the giggling you hear. She also doesn't stop down below the belt. You get her to the head of the bed and set her head down on the pillow. You give her another deep kiss, then work to cheek, neck and shoulder.

"Get my pants," she says, sounding naughty and spoiled at the same time.

You smile as you pull the jeans down from her hips.

A) Take them all the way off
B) Leave them around her ankles

You wiggle and tug the denim down past her knees then her calves and ankles. You pull the jeans all the way off and toss them on the floor. Raven's legs, now bare, smooth themselves against the comforter, as well as each other. You watch them closely as they move, curling up then stretching out on either side of you.

"Go ahead," Raven says. "Touch them."

Raven smooths a leg up your side, so you smooth a hand along the outside of it, all the way to the thigh. Raven bites her lower lip again as her whole body seems to react to your touch. Her shoulders shrug and arms move in to push her bosoms together while her legs and toes curl. Her hand works hard as ever, even as her thighs press together tightly. Her eyes close and she arches back a bit as she takes in a deep, gasping breath.

"Getting close, are we?" you say with a smile that admittedly feels rather naughty in its own right.

"Yes~...!" Raven moans before taking in another gasping breath. "Mmm~, yes...!"

You loom over her, supported by your elbows. You kiss her from forehead to cheek to lips. She returns the kiss, again with tongue, while her hands keep busy with her own body. For as much passion as is in her hands, you still feel so much of it in her kiss. You pull away to watch the exceptionally lewd look on her face as her tongue stays out as she catches her breath.

You decide to wrap this up and take hold of Raven's bosoms, one hand each. You squeeze them, push them together then attack both nips at once with your mouth. Raven gasps and moans while her left hand rests on the back of your head.

Raven's body tenses as you keep after her, but her right hand somehow keeps going. You shift to lie down beside her and you wrap your left arm around her waist. You keep her close so you can go after her right bosom with your tongue. Your right hand moves Raven's hand aside so you can take over down there. You go at turbo speed right from the start and Raven holds onto you desperately as ecstasy surges through her.

"Rorek~...! Yes~...!"

Raven goes through all the familiar signs, from breathing in sharper and her fingers gripping your head tighter. Her moaning is squeakier as she tries to keep her mouth closed and the volume down, but she can't contain them all. Every other beat or so, she lets out a nice loud one and it actually excites you to hear it, so you end up going even faster.

Suddenly, her body shudders and the bed shakes, and both rumblings stop at the same time. You wait to see if anyone else noticed rumblings in the tower, but no one's shouting or running to Raven's door. You then settle down and kiss Raven tenderly on the neck. Raven smiles and strokes your hair as she looks you in the eyes. You two kiss on the lips again, and without a word, you decide to stay in her room for the night.

The weekend goes by calmly as far as the Titans having to fight criminals. You do hear back from the owners of 5100 3rd Street, and they are more than willing to talk prices with you. You start to wonder if they looked you up, because they sure seem eager in their voice mail. But that aside, you arrange a meeting with the owners for Monday...

In the morning, bright and early. You want to get the ball rolling on this, so every second counts.

That very Monday, you put on your best button-up shirt and black tie but still have your jeans as you'll be riding Shadowfax into town.

You have a quick breakfast of cereal and milk, give Raven a quick kiss on the forehead and then head out. You meet with the owners of 5100 3rd Street at the branch office of the realtor company that handles the property, and are lucky enough to have a small private meeting room available.

You sit at the table and shake hands with Carla and Courtney Ehrendorfer, sisters much in the age group of Raven's mother. Carla, the older sister, presents you with the lease contract.

"So what're your plans for the property?" Carla asks as you skim through the pages.

"A restaurant," you say. "The name would be 'The Magic Melting Pot,' as it'd offer various types of cuisine, not just one culture over another."

"Oh, that sounds nice," Courtney says. "Did you go to a culinary school?"

"Well, no," you admit. "But I learned under various cooks and chefs as I traveled the world on my own. I've also had to learn how to cook for myself in those travels."

"Huh," Carla says. "So you're self-taught but thinking about opening a whole restaurant?"

"Naturally, I'll hire other chefs," you say. "I already have a few in mind that I can call in once all the renovations are complete."

"Alright," Carla says, still sounding skeptical. "How much time do you think you'll need to consider the lease?"

Obviously, you can get your father and the company lawyers to make sure this is all fair and in order. But to be reasonable to the Ehrendorfers, you'll go with...

A) A few days, aka Wednesday
B) End of the work week, aka Friday
C) A week, aka next Monday

"How about end of the work week?" you say. "I should have an answer by the end of Friday."

"Of course," Courtney says. "It was nice meeting you."

"It was nice to meet you, too," you say as you shake hands with the Ehrendorfer sisters.

You let them leave the room first, then you bring out your MagiPhone to scan the lease paperwork. You type up a message for your father to let him know about the loan process and you send that off with the scanned paperwork as an attachment.

From here, you ride back out on Shadowfax. You're still hungry so you'll have a second breakfast of sorts.

A) Get something on the way back to Titans Tower
B) Have something once you return to Titans Tower

You decide to get something on the way back, maybe even get something for Raven.

As you make your way through town, you find a McDonald's that isn't too busy and pull into a parking spot. You go up to the counter and order half a dozen hashbrowns and a couple egg McMuffins. You only wait a little while, then head back out on the road.

"Raven," you say as you return to the living room. "If you're still hungry, I got you something."

But no one is in the living room. You do see a note on the counter, though.

Break in at Jump City Museum
Should be back soon

- Raven

Well in that case, you keep her share of the meal warm while you sit down on the couch. You start with a hashbrown while you skim through the cable guide.

A) Watch sports
B) Watch news

You decide to go with the news to hear the latest headlines.

As it turns out, a news team is watching what's going on at the museum. Something about that makes sense, since it's daytime and it's a prominent location, and there's no active battle or crime.

"This is June O'Flannigan for JCN11, live at Jump City Museum," the female news reporter wearing a blue jumpsuit says. "The Teen Titans have arrived to investigate a pretty blatant break-in into the natural science wing."

Blatant is right, there's just a hole in the ceiling. The news camera catches the Titans walking around and investigating. Beast Boy is a green Bloodhound to try and pick up on scents while Cyborg has various lights scanning around.

"Excuse me," June says, "Robin? Do you have any clues as to who broke in and why?"

"No, we're working on that right now," he says. "But we can already see what was taken. This is the geology section of the wing, and a lot of different crystal ores and uncut precious stones were stolen."

Hmm, crystals and gemstones? A criminal could steal from a jewelry store and get much more valuable items.

"What would be the purpose of taking crystals and uncut gems?" June asks, thinking along the same line as you. "Jewelry stores are where the money's at."

"That's because this might not be about money," Cyborg says as he walks up behind Robin. "Many of the crystals taken can be used for focusing laser beams or more industrial uses."

"Though..." Robin says while thinking, "if that were the case, there are better sources for Zinc Selenide than a geology exhibit."

"True..." Cyborg says while also thinking.

You also agree, your family knows many companies that deal in ZnSe for the use in laser focusing lenses. A corporate lab would be a more obvious target, since they'd already have the materials and the machines to make a lens.

"So they stole a comparatively small amount of this Zinc Selenide while there were better targets," June summizes for herself. "Then perhaps they were here for the Zinc Selenide and the other stones only found here at the museum?"

"That's a good point!" Robin, Cyborg and even you say at the same time.

"Among the other stones taken were jade, lapis lazuli, onyx and opal," Robin says. "I'm not really sure the significance, when again, a jeweler would have a larger supply of those."

Jade, lapis lazuli, onyx and opal... Those certainly are curious choices. Jewelcrafting in magic taught you the properties of those stones, but that just makes this even stranger. Zinc Selenide, a scientific and industrial crystal, as well as the naturally occurring precious stones, all in one smash and grab?

A) Call the Titans to join the discussion
B) Wait until the Titans return home

You bring out your communicator and call Raven so you can join the conversation.

"Uh, hey," she says, a little surprised. "You back at the Tower?"

"Yes, and watching things on the news," you say.

"Huh?" Raven says.

You can see on the television screen that she looks at the camera.

"Oh," she continues. "Well, then how do I look?"

"Oh come now, Raven," you say. "You still look good, even on local cable. Now, I had some thoughts on the stones that were taken."

"Jade, lapis lazuli, onyx and opal," she says. "Yeah, I did, too. It made me think of the bit of Jewelcrafting we read at your family's home."

"Exactly my thinking," you say.

"Cyborg, Robin," Raven says as she floats over to them. "Ror- er..."

"The Magician," you quickly whisper.

"The Magician's seeing us on the news," she says. "We're both thinking that the stones taken have something to do with magic."

"Magic from stones and crystals?" June says; you're hearing an echo now that it's on TV and the communicator.

"Well, in some cases it's just New Age medicine theory," you say, putting on your best American accent, somewhere between Mid-Atlantic and Southern. "But I can verify that there's something to those particular stones being taken."

"How intriguing..." June says. "Could I get an exclusive on that?"

"I think you just did," Raven says. "Magician, correct me if I'm wrong, but the effects don't activate until the ore's been cut into proper stones, right?"

"That's right," you say. "If our stone thief knows what they're doing, they can Jewelcraft stones that'll help them be stronger in the realm of magic. Resistances, strengths, this could be about a magic user trying to puff themselves up, like a magical steroid."

"We've got a handful of magical villains on our radar," Cyborg says. "We'll have to put out the word to the Titan Network."

"I can check with some people I know," you say. "I'll contact you if I find anything good."

"Alright, talk to you soon," Raven says.

You two hang up, and you get out your MagiPhone. Honestly, you don't really know that many people steeped in the seedier parts of the magical community, but you could call John Constantine...

A) Call him
B) Don't call him

This could be a moment where time is of the essence, so you can't have any quabbles about this. You dial his number and wait.

London callin'~ to the faraway towns.
Now war is declared, and ba'le come down.
London callin'~ to the underworld.
Come out of the cupboard, ya boys and girls.
London callin'~, now don't look to us!
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust!
London callin'~, see we ain't got no swing.
Except for the ring of the truncheon thing.

The ice age is comin', the sun's zoomin' in.
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growin' thin.
Engines stop runnin', but I have no fear.
'Cause London is drownin',
And Ahhh... live by the river~!

"Well, well, well," Constantine says as he finally answers. "Never thought I'd hear from you, Whitesnake."

"Please don't call me that," you grumble.

"So what's the occasion?" he asks. "I recall you tellin' me you'd only call if hellfire was blowing out of your ass."

"It isn't, but the day is still young," you say. "I'm in California, with the Titans."

"Tha who?"

"The Titans. The Teen Titans. Have you just been shut up in that House of Misery this whole time?"

"It's House of Mystery and you know it, ya silverspoon lickin' little git. They're like Justic League Junior, right?"

"I guess that's a quick way to put it," you say. "Point being, precious stones with magical attributes were taken from a museum and I was wondering if you heard rumblings of such things being in need."

"No, I recently unsubscribed from the Dark Arts Black Market newsletter," he says very sarcastically.

"Are you sober or drunk?" you say. "It's hard to tell what kind of attitude you're having."

"Ha ha," he says, still sarcastic. "Well, I'm a bit busy at the moment with a full blown crossover of sorts, but I think I can help out. That is, if I stay alive and don't forget."

"I expect nothing less from you, John," you say. "Call me even if you don't find anything."

"Right, covering all the bases or something like that," he says.

"Right," you say. "Bye."

You hang up and step up to the Titan's computer.

A) Check the Titan's database
B) See about surveillance

Surely, there was surveillance of the museum at the time of the break-in. Maybe the Titans have looked into the museum's internal cameras but you try to find footage from an external street camera.

Now where is the system to access things like that?

You look through the menu and find a few shortcuts that lead you to things relating to Jump City. Power grid map, sewage system map... Best route from Pizza Corner to the movie theater? You keep scrolling through the options, also finding that the Titans keep track of "the one vegan food truck in town," probably Beast Boy's entry, and get to the surveillance camera map.

You find the museum and zoom in on that area. There are only two cameras even in the area, but you can't be sure which end of the museum the geography exhibit is on. You click for the northwest side, and it's obvious by the gaping hole in the building that you chose right.

You start rewinding the footage back and find that it was just half an hour ago that this all happened. Going backwards, people are running into the hole with bags, walk out without the bags, and the wall reforms. You let it go forward and see someone big and bulky punches it down all by themselves! You zoom in but that only makes things blurry. The big guy wears a lot of red and has his platinum blonde hair up in a manbun. It's hard to tell what the others are wearing, but this crew seems to be made up of all different shapes and sizes.

Wait, where did they even come from? You rewind again, wall reforming and the mishmash crew walking backwards off screen. They came from the south...

You go back to the map and trace the route. South leads to an intersection so you go there. The crew definitely storms up from here, and they come from the east. You again back out and move that way and keep track of this small handful of bandits. And... they come off a bus.

A) Track this bus
B) Focus on identifying the criminals
