[reneger]

Hey.

( hand dropping to pay the rooftop right next to him. )

C'mere.

[torchbearer]

[ kyle blinks before moving closer. ]

[reneger]

( jason waits until he's settled. scoots a little closer after, so he can press his shoulder in against kyle's own and leans into him. just a little. )

So this means we're officially dating now, doesn't it? Should I go tell Damian you're my boyfriend? See how hard he tries to spook you?

[torchbearer]

He already gave me the "hurt him and you die" talk.

[ it was funny. kyle leans back, the touch already softening him. ]

[reneger]

He's adorable when he's being protective.

( fearsome and vicious, but jason wouldn't take him any other way. damian may have outaged him, but he's still jason's baby brother. )

Did you feel threatened? Like my virtue was being well-guarded?

[torchbearer]

[ dryly. ]

Yes, it was all very threatening. I feared for my life.

[reneger]

He's a big softie, just like Dick. ( with a snort, before he's turning his head to press his face in against kyle's shoulder. ) Is that a yes?

[torchbearer]

[ kyle tilts his neck a little to lean against him. ]

Sorry, death threats get old after a while. It's a little hard to get worked up about them.

[reneger]

No, I get it. Kon told me early on after I'd shown up that if I laid a hand on Tim, he'd make me wish he didn't have a no kill rule.

( there's a small grin on jason's face, one that never quite reaches his eyes. )

I told him he'd better. Be a real shit boyfriend for Tim if he didn't fuck me over after pulling shit like that.

[torchbearer]

[ hm. kyle notes that look. ]

But you wouldn't.

[reneger]

I'd rather saw off my own damn leg than hurt any of 'em like that.

( well. mostly. because-- )

Sparring and playfights aside.

[torchbearer]

I know.

[ there's fights and there's fights. kyle may never grasp the internal dynamic between the bats, but he doesn't doubt they all care for each other. ]

[reneger]

Except Bruce.

( his tone is almost playful. almost. it cracks around the edges, doesn't quite reach what he's going for. )

Asshat deserves a beating or two.

[torchbearer]

[ kyle turns to press his palm against his cheek. ]

Don't do that to yourself.

[reneger]

( rude.

kyle presses a palm to his cheek, so jason turns his head into it.

bites at his palm. )

It's payback.

[torchbearer]

Whatever it is.

[ kyle glances at his own palm. ]

Seriously?

[reneger]

Thought about licking it, but that just felt gross.

( so, yes, seriously. )

[torchbearer]

As opposed to biting?

[reneger]

This is a date, ain't it?

( the look on his face says he's just waiting for kyle's response. waiting for an excuse to bully him. )

[torchbearer]

[ kyle gives him a look. ]

I really don't want to know what kind of dates you have.

[reneger]

Pending how you're counting 'em, this's my--sixth?

( he's grinning at kyle, reaching to grab hold of his wrist. )

An' they've all ended with someone getting fucked over.

[torchbearer]

That's pretty normal in our line of work.

[ though he has had normal dates. and some not so normal. ]

Jen and I used to go flying a lot.

[reneger]

Lo and I'd break into rich assholes' houses an' rob them blind.

( because thievery is clearly a fun date idea. )

Isabel - I'd taken on a normal date, which ended in her being kidnapped into space, so. Didn't happen again.

[torchbearer]

Yeah, that's usually how it pans out.

[ he remembers when his date with alex was interrupted by mongul. that had been a pain and he was lucky superman came around. ]

[reneger]

But you an' I'd be fine.

( with kyle's wrist in hand, jason raises it up to his mouth. presses lips to the base of kyle's palm. )

Space kidnapping can't fuck us over. Much.
