( with his cowl pulled back on and it fastened as best as it can be given the stitches he now wears beneath the tape, he watches jason hold up the small bug and his expression says it all: not surprised, heavy sigh just barely there on his lips. he knows they do this — he's caught a few of them already, but. for the most part lately, he just leaves them. after all, if he really wants to be left alone — to disappear or not be followed, he'll get rid of them or put them somewhere else. they're curious, he figures, and sure. he is, too, with them. which is why he has his own ways of keeping tabs on them.

still. if a bat doesn't want to be found, they have ways of doing just that.

steps heavy as he makes his way over to his laptop, he looks at whatever it's running for a moment before he heads to the batmobile, sliding into the driver's seat. )

Bat channels?

( he stares to jason in genuine confusion, it's almost innocent in a way.

door shut, key turned, the engine comes to life and he looks over to the stools there left by the table. nothing they need to talk about, because what needed to be said or left unsaid, has been. )

( that's a no if jason's ever heard one. weird that no one else has brought them up to bruce yet--he's shared them first with dick jr, but jason was also the one who found him first. bruce has been around a while, jason would have thought someone would have given him access by now. but jason's not going to be the person who does it, so he just--snorts.

tries to ignore the way the i won't give up on you settles deep in his gut and hurts. jason doesn't want to change, but bruce. . this bruce, saying he's going to try means more than he could put into words. means more than the embarrassment of breaking down and crying on him, too. jason's--tired, physically, mentally, emotionally, this is going to weigh on him for a while. but that's something he can handle later.

or he can just throw it aside, pretend it never happened, and never think about it again. that's likely going to be the easier, less stressful path. just pull a tim drake and shove it all in a neat little box to be forgotten forever until it becomes a problem. )

Yeah, you know. Batmobile, batarangs, batchannels. Gotta put bat in front of everything, don't we?

( his head leans back against the seat, injured arm draped across his abdomen. )

Ask Grayson. I'm sure he'd love to add you to the gossip chatgroups.

( gossip chatgroups. bruce looks over to jason with a somewhat perplexed expression as that's certainly nothing he's ever been part of, but. then again, who exactly would he have a gossip chatgroup with to begin with? alfred? again, nothing he really wants to think of at the moment, so. instead, he looks ahead, gloved fingers gripping the steering wheel. )

I'll keep it in mind.

( that's all he really says about that before he's taking them out of "the batcave" here and back ono the streets through the slick shadows. )
