(Please rate the threads; I want to know what I'm doing well on so I can do more of it, and what I'm doing poorly on so I can improve it.)
(This takes place several years after the TV show ended. They still call themselves the Teen Titans, but the youngest of them [Terra] is already 18, and Cyborg is now in his mid-twenties.)
Cyborg glanced around his room, bored out of his circuits. There was nothing good on TV, he’d already beaten BB at every video game they owned four times each so far today and it was barely 3 pm. He’d had lunch, and it was too soon to snack. When bad guys don’t attack, it gets pretty dull in Titans Tower.
He sighed and started rummaging through some old keepsakes of his from back when he was fully human. He had one box of all his “firsts”: his first baseball mitt, the keys to his first car, his first A+ paper, his first trophy... his first Playboy. Man, he hadn’t seen any porn since the accident. His groin was all mechanical, as was most of his brain, so he simply didn’t have sexual urges anymore. Of course he had software modules to simulate teenage male behavior in the presence of a nice piece of ass, but he tended not to use it very often and only did so on occasion to seem more human. But he did still have his memories. He remembered how horny he had been able to feel, he remembered lusting for female flesh. But that was all behind him now.
But it wasn’t all behind the rest of the team, he realized. Robin, Raven, BB, Terra, and Starfire all felt sexual urges. Well, he wasn’t too sure about Starfire, but surely Tamaranians had some kind of mating instinct at least. He smiled deviously as he thought of a way to alleviate his boredom, as well as maybe everyone else’s. He locked his door and opened all the security cameras in Titans Tower on his computer monitor. They covered every inch of every room, including the bedrooms. Raven was in her room meditating, BB was playing video games (Cyborg guessed he wanted to win for a change), Terra was rummaging through the fridge, and Robin and Starfire were in Robin’s room talking.
Cyborg then did some very complicated calculations (no sweat for his supercomputer brain), and prepared to send a signal from the sonic wave analyzer in his arm through the emergency alert speakers located in every room of Titans Tower. It would cause them to start emitting a sound wave at a frequency too high even for a dog to pick up, but which would resonate with brain waves in a certain part of the human mind, specifically the part that produces the chemical that causes sexual urges. In short, he could make anyone in Titans Tower, except himself, feel extremely horny, and they would stay so even if they left the room he played the speaker in because of the chemical produced, and he had a front row seat to watch the effects. |
