( it's a loaded question, and he's fairly certain bruce knows that. is he okay? no. jason's a mess; bruised both physically and emotionally. he's been falling apart for years, pulling together what pieces he can to try and make it seem like he's at least - a partially functional person, and he's managed that at least. hell, thanks to tony, he owns an entire goddamn apartment building in new york, a nice one in central city, a haunted mansion out in sunset falls, and more shit than jason really knows what to do with. including the emotional weight of losing several of his friends in a very small time period.
and the panic, from having realized how close he'd grown to kyle and dickie both, only to fuck off on them because he's afraid of losing everything. scared of being alone to the point he fights so hard to keep people around but also runs away as soon as it starts feeling too heavy. he could say he's fine, but he doesn't know how to say it and make it sound even mildly convincing. so instead jason settles on a tired, quiet, )
