You put the quarter in the machine and then squeeze the plier handles. A light starts spinning just behind the plastic screen. It gains speed, and you let go. It slows down and lands on...

Teasing

"Well, I don't disagree with that," you shrug. "Would you like a try?"

"Fine," she says.

You put in another quarter, and Raven gives the handles a squeeze. The light spins, she lets go, and the light slows down to land on...

Passionate

"See?" you say. "It's a sign. It knows what's deep down inside."

"Oh whatever," she says. "It's clearly random."

You two chuckle as you move on.

You exit the Musée Mécanique and ride Shadowfax along the Northern coast to eventually arrive at a place called Point Lobos.

"So what's here?" you ask. "Besides this nice look out at the ocean."

"Down there," Raven says as she points to a decrepit and abandoned building. "What's left of the Sutro Baths."

"Baths? As in a bathhouse?"

"Yeah, but it was also a public swimming pool and water park," she says. "Of course, this was all back near the end of the 1800's. It's just empty walls now. It's really great at sunset, sometimes it feels like a sort of... spirit of the past lingers here. The fun and relaxation that this place used to be filled with, y'know? Like something here wants those days to return with a sad sense of nostalgia."

Raven looks at the ruins of the old bathhouse with a sad smile of her own. You smile, because you're happy to see this side of her.

You move on from here all the way around the South side of town, and come back around to the East side. You weave into a spot inside and find the Prelinger Library. You park, and Raven leads you inside.

"I should've guessed that one of your favorite spots was a library," you say.

You two enter, and walk down to see the different aisles. In one, you see a rather skinny young woman with bright pink hair done up like Maleficient from Sleeping Beauty, dressed in black-and-purple striped socks and a highly gothic outfit sitting cross-legged reading an issue of American Cemetery. Raven stops to look at her.

"Jinx?" she says.

The young woman looks up and sees Raven.

"Oh, hey, Raven," she says.

"What're you doing here?" Raven asks. "I thought you and Kid Flash were off somewhere keeping up with the other Titans around the country."

"We were," Jinx sighs. "Until he got a call from The Flash, and we zipped over to Central City. We met this guy calling himself 'Impulse', who claimed to be from the future and related to The Flash, and there was this other guy called Savtar, or Savitor or whatever I don't even know. Things got really crazy, they're all really fast because they're Speedsters, and something about Speed Force. I wanted to help, but Kid Flash said he can't have me around because of stuff Impulse said about the future, and what Sav-whatever might do to me because of how... How we like each other... So, like an IDIOT, he zips me off to somewhere 'safe' and then ditches me!"

"That was a lot in a short amount of time," you say.

"Sorry, it's a habit from spending time with Speedters," she says. "Wait, who're you?"

"I'm Rorek Null the Seventh," you say.

"My boyfriend," Raven says with a smile and shrug.

"Huh," Jinx says as she looks you up and down. "Nice catch. More your style than any of the other single guys among the Titans, anyway. Can you believe some of the others thought you'd end up with Beast Boy?"
