What is Speedy's blue arrow? You know the one I'm talking about.
When she first joined the Titans, Cyborg gave her Arsenal's old quiver, which had a blue arrow that said "use in emergency only". Since then, pretty much every battle she's gotten ready to use it, then something stops her.
Fighting Dr. Light? Cyborg steps in.
Fighting Superboy? He's throws a wall at her.
Fighting Demons? A bunch of dead Titans show up.
Clearly we'll never see what it is. After "One Year Later" the Titans will just talk a lot about "that time Speedy saved the day with the blue arrow". That's probably because she's looking like she might be dead based on recent issues of Green Arrow (better her than Batgirl, Calvin said, like DC takes it as an either/or situation).
My intuition is it's a confetti arrow. You know, for weddings and birthdays and stuff. Fighting villains is no big deal for the Teen Titans, but confetti for someone's happy day? That's a serious business. So what about you? What do you think it is?

I'm betting it's an arrow blessed by Dr. Fate or someone with the ability to roll back time. And we'll see it in IC.
(Because, you know, there aren't enough plot devices hanging around the DCU these days. :-)
It's a Blue (Beetle) Arrow, and when she fires it, BB pops out of the end, like Wonder Man did in those early Busiek Avengers issues.
I've been wondering about that as well. Didn't Roy say he snagged it from Superman's Fortress of Solitude during a tour?
