Raven was just minding her own business when Leonardo-nope, Michael-broke the ice and introduced himself telling a bit about his family. Even going into a bit of a prayer towards the end. Raven felt an foreign feeling settle in her stomach. She hasn't felt it in a long time. It was....pity, 

Raven was the kind of girl to grab life by the balls. She was someone who was underestimated. Always quiet and in the shadows when you first meet her. Then, once you get to know her, you see she is a brave and loyal person. Yet, she doesn't like showing weakness. She doesn't like pity. 

So, the fact that she's giving it to this guy Michael is strange to say the least. 

Then, we have this other chick. Raphaela. Now, this girl was interesting. She introduced herself to everyone. Though, the thing was....she lied. You see, Raven is a manipulator. Lying is her second language. First being Italian. Raven was called the Mirror by her friends. Due to being double sided. 2 sides to her. Alike but one reveals the cruel truth.

Raven has learnt to master lying and she can very much tell when someone else is lying. So, this Rapheala chick was definitely on her 'Watch out for' list. 

Raven then decided 'screw it', she'd go next. 

"Well, I'm Raven. Not much to tell. No parents to speak of so nothing to really tell so yeah let's leave it at that." She said with a small grin and small wave. She never met her parents having jumped from foster home to foster home. Till eventually she was emancipated. Thank goddess. 

Though, she did track her parents down. She was a talented hacker. Hacked medical files and fount them. They were actually wealthy politicians with 2 children already. Perfect family. Understandable if they wouldn't want another. As they probably wanted the whole Apple-Pie life.
