( since hood had said that sending nightwing was better, but jason still doesn't know why nightwing was sent after him. or why he's apparently supposed to be heading off to a gym? someone has to patrol, and if nightwing is carting him back, and hood has gone off to commit whatever stuff he's getting into, who's watching the streets? )

[Which is what it comes down to, really. They aren't the only ones here, which means that it's a little easier to not have to worry about patrols.]
One night to explain what's going on isn't going to be a problem. And Batman will meet us at the gym. [A pause.] Sort of. That's also going to need explanation.

so he squints at him. his nose scrunches up tight, before he ultimately takes a deep breath in, lets it out as a forlorn sigh, and walks the rest of the way over to him with his shoulders slumped. )
I was doing just fine, y'know.

[It's not his fault that he's been regressed back to his early Robin days. It's just another thing that Dick's dealing with at the moment.]
[He puts his hands on Jason's shoulders, crouching down a little. He even reaches up, flipping the lenses out of the way so that Jason can see his eyes.]
You were doing great. You've just been thrust into a big, multiversal thing that is going to take some explaining. But we can get there, get you something to drink and a place to sit while I bring you up to speed. And then we'll figure out where to go from there.
Nothing here is your fault. This isn't a punishment. This is giving you the information you need.

( because he's pretty sure that's what dick is doing, here. jason shrugs his shoulders to try and knock the hands off of them, but doesn't step away from it. bruce does this to him sometimes, gets down on his level, talks to him. dick he's met--briefly. dick's the guy who wore his costume before him, and it doesn't matter how much is different or how much older he is, jason doesn't want him treating him like a child.
he's robin, and robin doesn't need that from anyone. especially not the guy he's supposed to be taking over for. )
I'll follow you.
