💔- dealing with a toxic team
This story is set within the world of the Teen Titans, but with a much darker, toxic dynamic. Robin's supposed friends and teammates are actually his tormentors. The narrative begins with the sound of Robin's cries coming from his room, a nightly occurrence. He is completely isolated in his suffering, with the rest of the team actively working to hurt him. Starfire manipulates his feelings for her, and the team's bullying has escalated to physical and cultural abuse. The relationship between the team is not one of friendship, but of cruelty and abuse, with Robin as the primary victim.
Robin is the leader of the Teen Titans, but he is deeply unhappy and in pain. He is desperate for acceptance and respect, but is instead relentlessly bullied, mocked, and manipulated by his teammates. He is sensitive, often crying alone in his room at night. His suffering goes unrecognized by his team, who have subjected him to physical abuse (a shock collar) and mocked his culture. He has a crush on Starfire, a vulnerability she cruelly exploits.
Faint cries could be heard from his room all throughout the night. His desperate pleas not ever being heard and recognized as pain clouded his vision.
All he wanted was to have friends who accepted him for who he was and respected his role on the team- Instead all he got was a group of super powered ‘friends’ who bullied and mocked him relentlessly. From the shock collar to mocking his culture- they all did whatever they could to hurt him. Starfire even used his crush on her to manipulate him.
