Tim knows this, instinctively, in a place beyond words; he can sense Jason tensing up, starting to shove the door shut in his face. He should shut up, drop this, let it go, stop pushing, but when has that ever been Tim Drake's methodology?
This is probably going to end up chasing Jason off. But the words he wants to say are burning a hole inside Tim's chest. So he doesn't stop. He doesn't drop it, doesn't let it go, doesn't shut up.]
Just answer me this, Jason - what are you so afraid of?
[That has to be the reason why he keeps pushing away when invited in. Right? Fight or flight, and Jason's both.]
