I hate it when you're right

You get so smug.

[flyingg]

Hey.

[stealstires]

Yo.

[flyingg]

We're still here, even in that case, you know?

[stealstires]

I thought things would be different in this world.

[flyingg]

Sorry.

Maybe they will be - later?

[ Awkwardly places her hand on his head. ]

[stealstires]

[Sasha gets a smile as Jason reaches to touch her hand.]

[hoodbin]

You.. are a good kid.

[ Now would be a good time to hug him, but she's still awkward about those. ]

[stealstires]

[Don't worry Sash, even at this age Jason isn't good with affection either.]

Someone is way biased.

[plains_hunter]

Nice to at least be remembered in some way, I suppose.

[stealstires]

I don't want to be remembered. I want to be.

[plains_hunter]

Could be. Give it time.

[stealstires]

It wouldn't be me. Not really.

No one wants to tell me what happens in the future but... I know that much.

[cowled]

[Bruce just-- is standing very still. (Jason is secretly a T-Rex and cannot see him if he's not moving. Or he's just in shock. One of those two things)

Then he sort of half-extends a hand, which drops back to his side after the barest moment.]

Jason?

[stealstires]

[Jason glares up at him. He knows he doesn't have the right to be mad at him- he knows none of this is his fault right now. But fuck it he's angry and no one seems to get it and now Bruce walks in here and looks at him like he's the phantom of the opera or something.]

Got so many birds you can't even recognize them now?

[cowled]

[... it's so absurdly Jason that Bruce almost wants to laugh.

He doesn't. Of course he doesn't. But the irony of the impulse isn't lost on him.]

No.

[You never forget your first dead Robin.]

I-- it's good to see you.

[stealstires]

[Good save there Bruce, he wouldn't have taken the laughter lightly. His answer does calm him down a bit, but he still frowns a bit.]

Outside of a memorial, you mean.

[arbadacarba]

...I don't suppose it would do any good to ask how you're holding up right about now?

[stealstires]

I don't suppose it would do any good to tell you I thought Dick liked smart chicks.

[arbadacarba]

I'm going to let that one slide because you're in a mood.

[stealstires]

Wouldn't you be?

[alostsoldier]

[A weak smile.] At least were's used to that, right? [Bats seriously have the corner on smug.]

[stealstires]

Not when it comes from someone outside the family.

[He stares at her, his confusion obvious. But he doesn't say anything about the mist-like look her body seems to have, yet.]

[alostsoldier]

Muns should probably count. I think. [A slight shrug, and then a rueful smile. Yeah, she'd be confused to.]

Hi, I'm Steph. [She almost offers her hand, and then - it just drops.] Or, well, I was.

[stealstires]

You too? Do they have a case for you to pretend it makes it all okay as well?
