It's easy enough to fill in some of the gaps. The kid was a big fan of the Flying Graysons and then witnessed the Graysons' murders. He was such a big fan that he recognized Dick's moves as the same as Robin's. And since it's no secret Bruce Wayne adopted Dick Grayson, it was easy to make the connections.
Jason's also aware of the compliment the third Robin makes about his time as Batman's sidekick. He would be flattered if circumstances were different.
But that compliment is overshadowed by darker parts of the story. Jason did notice that Bruce (or least his Bruce?) Had made some changes after his death. His fighting style did become more brutal but Jason didn't care. Those changes weren't enough as far as he was concerned.
Then there was how closely did this kid observe all of them to make the observations he made. Did he stalk them before approaching Bruce? Who does that?
And then there's the part about Bruce taking him in. Jason still feels disturbed by that.
"Did you honestly have any idea what you were gonna get yourself into when you talked to him?" Jason asks in a serious tone.
