[ So they didn't get off on the right foot today and now Jason is on his way over to Tim's. This is probably a bad idea all around, but when has that ever stopped Jason? He wonders if he'll ever get off on the right foot with any of them- it's always so hit or miss. He's vaguely aware that today's fumble was probably on him, but whether he actually owns up to it or not is a whole other story.

He knows where Tim lives. He knows where they all live- just in case. In their line of work, it's always better to have a just in case, or to not so secretly keep tabs on each other without admitting it.

Jason takes his time, mostly because he's still trying to decide if this is a thing he should be doing, even as he climbs the fire escape leading to Tim's window and perches himself there. ]


If you leave your window open like this you never know what might come in off the street.

[ Tim's right about how Jason would have handled this. He's not big on reaching out when there's a slip in communication. Even on a good day it's a struggle at times and if he can deal with it later, he definitely will.

Tim gets a little more leeway because he doesn't actively try to drive Jason up a while. This was no big deal. ]


Do you offer to run diagnostics on all their phones?

[He climbs in, pulling the phone out of his pocket and tosses it at Tim in a way that doesn't leave why he would drop his phone off the roof to the imaginaton. Well. That, and the bullet. ]

Five stories, give or take.

Well I didn't fling it off the roof and I wouldn't be clumsy enough to drop it, so.

[He tosses his helmet aside and rubs at the back of his head, making his hair stand up. Tim looks like he's in a better mood, at least. Jason figures he must've gone out for patrol. That seems to do the trick for all of them. If something was bothering Tim before, Jason wouldn't ask anyway. That's not really his thing.

He crosses his arms while he hovers for a moment, then glances over toward the kitchen.
]

Hn. I'm gonna go raid your kitchen now. I hope you have something good.

Sometimes I put it in the wrong pocket and it gets caught in the crosshairs. And hey, don't go snooping around in it while you're running your diagnostics. I'll know.

[Not that he keeps any of his more serious contacts in there, but still. He doesn't want Tim snooping around on his phone. He trusts Tim to a point, but there are times he still questions where their loyalties lie. They help each other out from time to time, but he knows he's nowhere near back in the fold... and he doesn't want to be. This is just fine for him]

I'll make it work.

[He goes to yank the fridge open, looking the contents over. It's about as bad as his is. Talk about frustrating. Half the point of coming over here was for the food]

This is pathetic.

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-12 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Give me a reason to trust you and we'll see.

[He retorts. Tim can end up snooping if he wants to, but then, will Jason ever trust him completely? Answers lean toward no]

How long's that going to take?

[he has nothing else on his agenda tonight. He was going to have a drink, pass out alone. The contents of Tim's fridge isn't enticing, but not being alone kind of is. He side eyes Tim, then goes to grab the menus and heads to the couch, flopping down on it, putting his feet up on the coffee table]

What are we ordering?

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-12 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Is this purely a social visit? Is that what he's doing right now? All signs point to yes, but he doesn't do social visits, so he's not even going to think about it like that. Even though he's now sprawled out on Tim's couch like he's done this a thousand times before. ]

I'm sure it's fine. That noise it's making, it only happens when start typing.

[He's not big on texting anyway, or talking on the phone. Why does he even have that thing? Maybe because he's been using it more, lately. Tim bothers him all the time now. If he's staying, he's only doing so to bother Tim right back.]

Burgers, then. Some nice, greasy fries.

[ If he'd wanted Jason to stay away, Jason would have come whether he wanted him to or not, but he's not sure they're even like that with each other, are they? It's been a long time since Tim has told him 'no'. ]

You have an app for your burgers? I shouldn't even be surprised. I don't need anything fancy, just whatever their classic cheeseburger is.

[Jason likes the classics. He looks over the menus anyway, because he will never be okay with a burger app. Most of the time he just picks food up for himself. He doesn't trust anyone to come to the door. Could be that he's had a delivery person attack him more than once. Such is his life.]

How's Alfred?

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-15 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
I bet they do. Easier to steal your information.

[Not that he thinks most anyone could steal information from Tim, but look, these are the things that cross his mind. Trust no one (Except for his dumb redheaded friend and this replacement bird). The optimism isn't strong with Jason.

Those fake delivery men who tried to attack Jason? Yeah, they're dead. He's not going to stand for anyone trying to invade his space just to take him down. Let's just hope Tim doesn't end up with a delivery guy at his front door. Jason's not going to hold back on account of Tim.

He's not sure what convinced him to stay this time, or even why he thought coming over was a good idea at all,
but sometimes the quiet gets too much, and the nights are too long. Tim, surprisingly enough, is less annoying than the rest of them. At least he doesn't push.... though that thought may have been premature: Bringing up Bruce is never a good lead in to any conversation.
]

I'm not big on reunions. Besides, I can't just stop by to see him.
red_hoods: (red hoodie)

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-15 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, he's definitely rethinking the whole Tim not being as annoying as the rest of the bunch. He doesn't want lectures, or reminders, or empty words, which is all Jason thinks most of this is.

He tosses the menus aside, dropping his legs off of the table to give Tim a look.]


Yeah? Well maybe I should drop by, then. Remind them why they shouldn't be so happy to see me. I can redecorate with some bullets, that might help.

[If Tim is happy to see him, he should be happy right here. Not trying to get Jason to go do something he's not ready for. He's wasted too much of his time thinking about Bruce, obsessing over how things between them would go from here on out, ever since he got back]

Not everything has to be about Bruce.
red_hoods: (listen)

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-15 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Jason knows the feeling. Especially because Tim wasn't talking about Bruce. That's just the looming figure in his own head. He should take his own advice sometimes. Not everything has to be about Bruce. ]

No, continue, Please. [His tone is sarcastic, but then he continues on anyway] What were you talking about, then?

[He shouldn't be so irritated that Tim turns away from him, back to the computer screen, but he is. It reminds him of... okay, yeah, so he does have a problem. It's not like they all don't know this]
red_hoods: (don't turn around)

these idiots!

[personal profile] red_hoods 2017-10-16 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a dark cloud that passes over Jason's face when Tim continues, though how can he blame him when he asked? He'll find a way. Tim, of course, is not wrong. From the mad and sullen, to most of his words. Most, but not all.

The problem is, all of these truths and emotions are so tangled up in his head, and it's been that way for a while now. Lately, though, he's been trying to untangle it. He's been trying not to push people away. Apparently he's not doing such a great job of it. Is anyone really surprised about that, either? ]


You think I don't try? I try when I don't want to. When I shouldn't even have to.

[Sadly, that's all he's got for the moment, because his head is telling him that whatever effort they're all making is indeed bullshit. He doesn't need this. He stands up, grabbing his helmet and holds his hand out in front of Tim.]

Phone. Now.

[ There's the smallest hint of regret that flashes through Jason's eyes when Tim bring 'the incident' up, just like that. Guilt, regret, sadness... it all trickles back to anger for Jason and it's always been hard for him to temper it all down. Would he ever do anything like that again, though? No. Tim is wrong about that one. He doesn't try to take a swing at everyone who tries to get close to him.... Is that what Tim is trying to do?

Jason decides that he could just shove Tim away and snatch his phone back, because he doesn't have to prove anything, but that's probably a lie in and of itself. Something that he tells himself regularly, because he sure as hell isn't doing anything he does for them.

Stay isn't something Jason hears very often. He gets words hurled at him, lectures, useless apologies that are all a little too late, but no one ever has any sort of solution. No one gets that he is trying. If he jumps back out that window again, then what exactly is that saying? He's not sure, exactly, but his hand drops down and he pulls his helmet back off, giving Tim a look.]


I don't have to prove anything to you.

[Just to be clear. But he goes to sit back down anyway, leaving his helmet on the table]
