( his side hurts. his arm hurts. bruce is letting this throw him off too much, and jason--can only do so much when bruce is lurching towards them, when he's unable to pull apart what's real and what isn't. he's grabbing for another knife, this one made of shadows because he can't get his hand into his jacket, not when there's a snake on an arm and another coming straight for him. he swings at it, tries to get the snake to back the hell off when bruce--shoves him over, throws jason off balance as he gets martha down. thomas comes straight at him while he's still trying to regain his balance, and jason falls over onto his back on the ground.
finds nails digging straight into his cheek, tearing through flesh hard enough to make him bleed before jason gets arms and snake up between them to block off thomas' attacks.
takes a sharp breath in through his nose. )
Sorry, B. I tried to do this gently.
( his eyes squeeze shut beneath the domino mask, and shadows cover the ground beneath them. slide out from corners, from under them, and expand until it's covering the entire area under them. it's only noticeable for a moment before large spikes shoot up out from them, impaling snakes and human-shapes alike, numerous times. they go around bruce and jason, impaling thomas and martha. )
