May I ask why you dislike Raven so? I'm not going to try and convert you or anything, just curious. x)

I'm one of those people that are like "sure, BBTer for the time where it actually happened" but otherwise it's Raven for me. Raven is the source of many lulz.

Sorry if I'm freaking you out with my explosion of fandom. xD

I can totally see where you're coming from. I think my main thing is that when I was first introduced to Raven, I didn't see the 'goth clique' thing at all. I just saw a sarcastic person who makes for funny situations.

I guess that's sort of strange because the first episodes I saw on TV were all three parts of The End.

I didn't really see her as your generic 'emo' crowd pleaser, mostly because I didn't take her as an outwardly gothic person. She's grey because of daddy, and wears the clothes because it's comic reference. I can totally see how she'd fall into that stereotype though.

It all depends on how you viewed her in the series, and I didn't take her closed off-ness very seriously.

And see, this is why I hate to call myself a Raven fan, because of all the fandom wank. It's truly ridiculous, and I hate it especially because both Raven and Terra are my favorite characters. People seem to lose all respect for each other simply because of character preference. I seriously hate it when BBRae fans try to push the fact that Beast Boy and Terra's cannon screen time wasn't true or w/e. It clearly happened, and it clearly meant something. It was an important part of the comic as well!

I recently had a marathon for TT on New Years, and everyone wanted to skip Terra's arc because they all hate her... I nearly kicked them out of my house, I kid you not. :/

I'm glad I found someone like you who's just as fed up as me so I don't have to just whine to people who don't care. I'm actually planning to write a Raven/Terra friendship fic that takes place after the final episode. I'm sure it can be done, with careful characterization. :)
