Description: This vid has adul themes! Analysis: In this vid, Slade rapes Raven and Robin, and we see how they, and the other titans, deal with it. It brings Robin and Raven closer, because they share being "damaged", but it also drives them apart, as Raven blames Robin for what happened to her, since it happened to him first and he didn't do or say anything. In the beginning, I tried to parallel the clips. Robin fights whereas Raven runs, but neither approach works, as Robin is putting on his apprentice uniform, Slade is tearing off Raven's clothes. "Can't go back": They remember what their lives were before. Raven had friends and was accepted, Robin was a proud, respected leader. But they can't go back to that now. Slade has destroyed that for them. We then see the approach, the actual rape itself, and the aftermath where Slade callously discards them. "Dreaming comes so easily": Raven tries to escape to a perfect fantasy world in her mind when Slade comes for her. "True love is a fairytale": Her shy and caring relationship with Beastboy is over, he now hates and rejects her. Raven now bears Slade's mark. Robin tries to talk to her about it but she won't. She's scared of him too, in part. "You can't take back what you've taken away": Slade has stolen her innocence, her friendships, her life practically. We see how Cyborg also turned against her. We see Raven and the other titans discovering that their fearless leader is also being abused by Slade. He has taken away their trust and belief in good by dominating their all-important figurehead in that way. Robin tries to explain, but Raven just doesn't want to hear it. She believes the same thing wouldn't have happened to her if he had said something. We see the titans turning against Robin as he and Raven continue to be persued by Slade, never escaping. Raven starts to retreat in on herself while Robin becomes obsessed. He still tries to fight and she still tries to run but Robin always loses and Slade always finds Raven and gets what he wants. "Healing comes so painfully": After a particularly brutal attack by Slade, Robin lies in hospital blaming himself. "And it chills to the bone": Robin hates the idea of the other titans knowing what's happening to him. They all turn their backs on him. We see what Slade's abuse has done to Robin's relationship with Starfire. And again that Robin and Raven's happy lives are over. Raven begins to realise she'll never be free of Slade, that he will continue to haunt both of them. "I must go on": The conclusion to the Mv, what Slade's attentions do to them. Raven is driven insane and Robin submits and becomes Slade's apprentice (and sex slave).

Draquia ::: Favorites wow. actually, this is the best teen titans MV I have ever seen. Really powerful, really well portrayed. The creepiest thing is, i can actually see that happening. Slade is just a little too intimate in his taunts of both of them. 07-08-04 10:21:04 _____________________________________________________

Obsessive0514 ::: Favorites This was actually well thought out. Kudos for that. The video itself is great, albeit extremely disturbing. I don't quite get why the other Titans would reject Robin and Raven, though. Do they know of the abuse? Or do they just see Raven and Robin becoming (more) distant? My one "real" complaint is that you used the remix of this song. It's just personal taste, I guess. Actually, half way through the video I completely forgot that it was a remix. It feels really weird favoriting this. 07-08-19 09:14:55 _____________________________________________________
