You had never been open with your emotions. You didn’t like people knowing what you felt. It made you feel vulnerable and weak. You didn’t allow yourself physical affection. You never relied on anyone. There were still people you like and appreciate, you just never show it.

Dick had told Gar to help you and keep you company right after you had joined the Titans. Gar had really tried too, you were just so cold to him. It pissed him off. All he wanted was your attention and maybe a bit affection.

It had been a long day. A long mission and a lot of failed attempts at getting you to talk. Gar was fed up and done with it. He was mad. Why were you so cold? One last attempt.

Gar: “How’s your eye? You took a nasty hit today.”

No answer. That was it for Gar. He’d only ever tried to be nice and this is what he got. All he asked for was an answer and a bit of acknowledgement.

Gar: “What did I ever do to you? What did I do to make you so goddamn cold?! Do you not have any other emotions?!”
