( he's stubborn as hell and while jason wouldn't say there's a winning when it comes to this conversation - if there was, dick already damn knows he's winning. because jason doesn't know what to give here. he's given the truth, which is better than he would have given most. )
If I was treating you like I treated him, I'd be a hell of a lot. . . less open. If you were just another Robin, I may've let you into my apartment but you sure as hell wouldn't still be here. It's me. You get that, right? I fuck up an' hurt you, and it's me who's gonna be holding it against myself 'til the end of time. It's me who's gonna be comparing it to how hard I hit Drake when I came back around, who's gonna be thinking about how hard I come down on every other asshole who fucks with kids, and yet here I am pulling the same goddamn shit. How I'm feeding into the same cycle I've given B shit for. Not that I ain't regardless, 'cause you're almost the same age I was when I keeled over, yet we're still running 'round at night putting you at risk every damn time we go.
