It was no secret that Beast Boy loved music. He had a vast collection of various genres through assorted mediums. Be it through iTunes, CD, or digital files ripped from movies and television, the changeling tried to get his hands on his favorites and he had quite a few favorites.
One of the worst things a villain did to him was alphabetize his tunes. He’d never forgive Gizmo for that. There was a method to his madness and he sorted music by feeling, not by letter.
With his love of music, it was no surprise he was giddy upon receiving his latest album. He was happy for more than a physical copy of his jams to listen to; he had a physical copy of his jams to share.
It was something they’d been doing for years, even if neither he, nor Raven, directly acknowledged it.
By chance, some years ago, Beast Boy caught onto the fact that Raven enjoyed some of his music. She didn’t say so, but she did neglect to tell him to turn it down when a certain song played.
Ever since, he’s made it his mission to pin down Raven’s music taste. He’d play some music next to the wall dividing their rooms and see how she reacted. If she was silent, she liked it. If she told him to keep it down, she didn’t.
That’s how he saw it, at least.
Excited to share what he’d bought, Beast Boy eagerly awaited when Raven returned to her room. Growing impatient, he found himself constantly sneaking peeks at Raven to see if she showed any sign of heading to her room.

Having spent most of her life growing up in Azarath, Raven hadn’t been exposed to the same things as most of the other Titans - music included. She knew nothing of what was popular now, or what everyone else was listening to. That is, besides the music Beast Boy liked to blast in his room.
At first, it had started out as nothing more than an annoyance. The noise distracted her from her reading, or sometimes her meditation, and she would tell him to turn it down. But one day, in spite of herself, she started to listen. And to her surprise, she actually enjoyed some of the music he played. Definitely not all of it - there were plenty of songs that grated her nerves.
But here they were, years later, neither having acknowledged it out loud. Truthfully, she wasn’t entirely sure if he had taken notice that she didn’t always complain about the noise.
Not that she would say anything about it.
Today was one of the team’s slow days - nothing too exciting was happening, so everyone was finding some way to entertain themselves. Raven had settled onto the couch with her most recent book and buried herself into the story. However, after a while, she kept getting the odd feeling that somebody was looking at her. She glanced over to see Beast Boy peeking over, obviously trying to be subtle.
Raising an eyebrow, she lowered her book to her lap. “...What?”
