Nothing Compares to You
By Ryoko Porter
Part Three ~ Gotta Fight for Your Right to Party
People danced and sang songs of long ago battles. Some spoke of romance as they drank their wine. Everyone got into the spirit of celebrating life, which come the next forty-eight hours, they may not have. Starfire was quite excited to have so many handsome men ask her to dance, and accepted most of them. Cyborg too got his own share of attention, all of the women beautiful and exotic. And Beast Boy got his share of offers, though annoyingly for him, most of them were from men.
‘What do I give off a gay vibe?’ he questioned both Nightwing and Raven, who both shook their heads to the negative.
‘No “gay vibe”,’ Tempest said as she came closer to the three Titans. “But you’re cute and innocent, a rare find in our world. Most of us reside in Hell, and to us you look like a sweet piece of ass.’ She finished her flirting with a gentle pinch to his butt.
Everything began to get crazy, like a rave, but more animalistic. Bodies heaved and sweat, and they cried out like beasts. The music got louder, as did the yelling. More food and drink materialized, as did things that would be classified as drugs. Nightwing worried about the city and what they would think, but he fears were put to rest by Tempest who said that the city would sleep through it all.
The Titans should have expected it, but at some point, the party had become the “orgy from hell”. As others danced, new guests appeared from the unknown, and paired up. Some of the siblings had disappeared, only to return with a lover or two in their arms. And even incest occurred in the openness of the revelry. Mating dances, born from their desperation to somehow continue on.
Thankfully there was some peace amongst the madness. A group of the oldest siblings, a few others, and the Titans all stayed in the kitchen area. Occasionally one or two of them would be invited to join the orgy, even Beast Boy, who declined due to nerves. But Nightwing wasn’t at all surprised when Raven left, though none of the other Titans noticed right away.
‘Poor child,’ Tempest said quietly into her drink. ‘Raven has so much working against her. She is the only the second child of Trigon, to be born of a human woman.’
‘Who was the first?’ Nightwing asked realizing that the conversation was being passed through their minds.
‘You have already met him; the poor boy lost himself to madness so many years ago. He is perhaps the greatest of us all, but humans are not made to live as long as he has. To survive immortality, one must have few sentiments. But humans are relatively short lived creatures, and must have the necessary weapons to combat their enemy time.’
‘You’re talking about Magpie,’ Nightwing confirmed. ‘But I don’t understand what you’re talking about.’
‘Emotions are what keep the human species alive. Without empathy, would you care for your children or anyone else? Without fear, would you keep yourself safe? Without greed would you make life better? Emotions are part of your instinct to survive. They make you do what the species needs you to do to survive as a whole. Without emotions, what is to make you mate and care for children before you die?’ Tempest asked.
‘But as an immortal being, we have little need for this. Of course we can be killed, but it is rare. We have no need to rush anything, because we have all the time in the world. But imagine if we were to fall in love so easily as humans. We would have our time with them and then watch them wither away and die, along with the children we created with them. Now imagine having so much time, that you can fall in love regularly.’ Both of them mentally shuttered at the thought. ‘All of those ups and downs much like a bipolar person.’
Nightwing did not need to ask where it was going. Someday, Raven would be as crazy as Magpie. Probably for at least one lifetime, but it made him wonder if he should continue to love her. But then if he didn’t, her loneliness may drive her mad. It was a loosing situation, but which lose would be greater?
‘Do not stop loving her, let her live happily while she can,’ Tempest answered his silent wondering.
‘Then are you saying that your kind don’t have emotions? Then what do Ghost’s powers react to? How do I use them?’ Nightwing asked worried.
‘We have emotions, but they are so weak that there isn’t enough for our powers to connect themselves to. So instead they are connected to our thoughts. That is why Ghosts powers feel as if they have more control than Raven’s did. I hope that you have a lot of imagination!’ Tempest grinned at him. ‘But don’t get me wrong, they can be just as un-controllable as Raven’s emotion controlled powers. If you think of something happening, it very well may, even if you don’t really intend it to. I’ve watched nearly all of those here; unintentionally make someone die just because of a childish wish. Imagination and sheer will are your weapons.’
Nightwing thought that he could handle that. Then with a grin, he asked a question his vulgar teenage mind was dying to ask. ‘So how did Trigon get so many children?’
‘A hundred and seventy-seven children isn’t “so many” when you stop to consider that he has been the King since before the beginning of your human history,’ Tempest grinned at Nightwing’s shock. ‘I myself was born before the super-nova that created this galaxy erupted. There are many other worlds and dimensions out there, and it makes time very irrelevant.’
‘I thought that you were Trigon’s daughter?’ Nightwing asked.
‘I am, but he was alive long before he became King.’

‘Hey,’ Richard greeted as he sat down on the ledge of the tower roof.
‘Hey,’ Raven answered with a smile.
‘Had an interesting talk with your exceedingly older sister,’ Richard grinned. ‘I’ve gotta say that she certainly is interesting.’
‘Am I going to have competition for your affection now?’ Raven asked, playing along.
‘No. If I shacked up with her, she might take a nap that would outlast my lifetime. Where’s the fun in that?’ Richard joked. ‘Least I know with you I know that won’t happen.’
‘I won’t live longer than a few hundred years,’ Raven said gratefully as she thought of Magpie.
‘But I won’t live even a quarter of that,’ Richard worried again.
‘Doesn’t matter,’ Raven said simply without any room for further discussion.
There were three souls that were still up when the sun rose that morning. All three of the warriors imagining the future that would soon come. It would only be a few more hours before they would have to leave this relatively peaceful world.
The End.
Stay tuned for the up and coming series, “Sweet Child of Mine”! Sorry about the no sex thing, but I’m not great at writing heterosexual sex. But they will have sex eventually, I promise!
