RobRae

RobRae is the het ship between Robin and Raven from the Teen Titans and Titans fandoms.

Pre 52
Raven and Robin share a close bond in the original comics, as she appeared in his dreams to help reform the Teen Titans to help defeat her father. Some time into their friendship Raven unknowingly used her powers to make Robin fall in love with her, and she thought she loved him romantically as well, but Starfire helped Raven see that they do both love each other, just not as lovers. Raven came to stop the spell and she and Robin still remained good and close friends.

Rebirth
Raven and Nightwing still share a close relationship in this timeline, and when on the same team, seem to spend more time with each other than the other members. Their relationship is more like siblings, or father-daughter.

Teen Titans (2003)
Robin and Raven are very close teammates and have a close bond, even in their minds. Raven openly says that Robin is the only one that understand her on their team, this is proven true as Robin has defended Raven numerous times from their teammates, who do not understand her and tells them that Raven is her own person and that they have to get used to how she is.

They have saved each other numerous times and are very comfortable with each other as they have similar personalities. When Slade came for Raven, Robin ferociously protected her and wouldn't let him near her. Robin was the first person Raven told about her destiny and Robin still saw her as a close friend, this deepened their bond as well as Raven saving Robin from seeing hallucinations of Slade by going into his mind, thus creating their psychological bond. In Birthmark, Robin states that they have a bond and tells her to let him in her head as she has in his, this suggests Raven and Robin accepting their psychological bond and that she told him about it. Creating this bond allowed Raven to see Robin's past and his secret identity, which suggests Robin is comfortable with Raven knowing who he really is.

The End trilogy strengthened their bond as Robin desperately fought to keep Slade away from Raven, however she accepted her fate and brought the end of the world, leaving Robin and the rest of the team not turned into stone, with her powers. Robin volunteered to go with Slade to save Raven and found her as a child, there she tells him that there's nothing she can do as Trigon has taken away her powers, but Robin tells her he just has to hope for both of them to defeat Trigon.

When Raven reverts to her normal self and destroys Trigon she asks Robin how he keeps hoping and Robin reveals that Raven is the reason, he calls her the "most hopeful" person he has ever met and tells her that she's got her whole life ahead of her now, they then celebrate the defeat of Trigon along with the other teammates.

Titans
Dick met Rachel when he was requested to look out for her, because of the girl's powers and how there are people who will come after Rachel for that very reason.

Fanon
RobRae is one of the most popular ships in the Teen Titans fandom, it is supported by how well Robin and Raven know and care for each other. There are numerous reasons why fans support the ship, one because they are similar and two because they are very comfortable with one another and told each other secrets that the team wouldn't know about. At the end of the series it is highly possible that Raven is the only one who knows Robin's secret identity, fans like to play with this and suggest that Raven would call him by his real name when the two are alone.
