[ he's outlived me - that shouldn't give him hope. but it does. that there's still a chance...
and jason has to go into detail. he sees it all. the trap. the joker's amusement. there were a few rogues bruce had forbidden him from facing alone. dick'd thought it was bullshit until two-face. then he'd never tried to go rushing in again. it had been a hard lesson. his body remembers the beating.
but bruce had always come for him. bruce had always rescued him from whatever they got into. if dick hadn't already saved himself. or saved them first. it was them. together. strong because they were batman and robin.
jason was alone.
he was alone when he died.
even dick had watched his parents fall. together. ]
Jesus.
[ suddenly he's the one who needs to make sure he's breathing. dick paces around as jason finishes talking, thoughts racing. ]
Fuck. [ he hisses under his breath. and it's easier to feel angry than scared. ]
That's not going to be my world. [ he looks at jason hard. ] Robin's not going to die.
wtf did i wake up to
