[ He lets go when Jason does and doesn't even make a face at the hair-ruffling. He gives Jason an almost-smile at the suggestion. ]

Might as well get to work, since we're already awake.

[ He's sure there are healthier ways to cope. He might even know a few, after all of the sessions he's had with Canary. But sometimes doing something concrete is enough. He can't undo what happened to Jason. But he can fight to make things even a little better. Maybe this time someone makes it home who might not have if they didn't intervene. Maybe someone who's been tearing apart the neighborhood gets locked up.

Little things still matter. Trying still matters. ]

Might as well.

( the gun gets shoved into the back of his sweats, safety flicked on and jason--takes a moment at the doorframe. pulls in a breath, lets it out slow. raises his hand after to wave dick off. )

Give me a minute.

( so he can wake up properly. take a moment, maybe, to let himself swallow down the fucking mess of what'd happened. feel it for a minute, then let it go. jason won't wait for an answer, he'll just--head back across the apartment towards his room. for a breather. )
