I don't think I know this one.
no subject
Are you serious? This is your thing.
no subject
I'm guessing this is one of those based on a western classic?
no subject
( and now he's turning to restart it from the first episode.
turns on the subtitles while he's at it. because he's nice like that. )
no subject
How did you even find this?
no subject
( jason presses play, then moves back over to the couch. drops down onto it with his arms splayed across the back. )
no subject
no subject
( and tim drake is generally correct. even when everyone else thinks he's just being nuts. )
no subject
[ but that tracks for tim, he supposes. ]
no subject
( his arm lowers down, dropping his hand onto kyle's shoulders so he can pull him in, closer. )
no subject
No! Not a nerd.
no subject
( he's still grinning, light and easy. he's already seen this episode so there's less need to pay attention, but jason keeps his head turned towards the tv anyway. )
The horror, I know.
no subject
[ kyle watches, curious. ]
So how many episodes is this?
no subject
( his head tips in towards kyle. looks over towards him. )
Have you read the book?
no subject
Probably, but it was years ago.
no subject
( the grin on his face is soft and easy, still turned so it's directed at kyle. )
What were you out doing?
no subject
[ hmm, he thinks back. ]
I used to read a lot of mystery books at the time. To figure out what happened to my dad.
no subject
( where the giant star of fire blares down on all the weirdos who go out when it's bright out. )
But did the mystery books help?
no subject
At the most, it made me feel like Nancy Drew deserved better than Ned.
no subject
( jason's attention focuses in on kyle though. looks at him for a moment, before he offers-- )
You had your mom, right? Growing up.
no subject
[ a beat. ]
But then Major Force broke into her house. Used some mannequin of her, cut it up and stuffed the parts in the oven. I tore into that house. And then I just . . . left. It's better when I leave.
no subject
( jason won't tell him leaving was a shit idea. he won't suggest kyle go back, or anything stupid like that. he's--had his own shit experiences, getting involved with people. bonds are easy to take advantage of. )
You never know when it's all gonna turn to shit an' you'll only have yourself to blame.
no subject
[ he's not sure he's really asking or not. ]
no subject
( emotional competency is not jason's strongsuit. )
no subject
You're always so extra.
