Summary
Jason waits as patiently as he can -which means stretching again, and moving from the living room to the kitchen -for Dick to find the words for whatever he wants to say. However, when Jason settles back down on one of the kitchen chairs, staring across the table at Dick still standing, Dick is clearly still floundering

Summary
They've still got about ten minutes left on their walk back to the house, and Dick knows himself well enough to know he can't keep going like this; that him and Jason will just keep feeding off each other, until some random cat jumps out of a garbage can, and Jason shoots the garbage can to shit, while Dick drop kicks a poor cat into a street light.
So he waits until they're on the main road back to the house, before asking, "So. What's up?"

Set Myself On Fire (So You Can Feel Warmth On Your Back) by WakingNightmares for Processpending
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
03 Aug 2025
Tags
Summary
Jason recognizes that blank stare. The not-often-enough blinks that are too slow, the slight uptick in breathing, not enough to be qualified as a panic attack, but enough to be just noticeable. The way Dick's mouth isn't quite hanging open, but it isn't closed either, a small, barely visible little gap between his lips that isn't letting enough air.

Summary
Jason just ripped his soul out for Dick, something he obviously hadn't wanted to do. Something he'd done anyway, for Dick. Because Dick had asked. Jason's sitting here, dragging himself over broken glass for Dick -again -because he cares about Dick. Because he's trying to help, and…
"Her name was… Catalina Flores," Dick says, and he's a little proud of himself that he only stutters over her name a little.

Summary
Jason forces himself to give Dick a smile as he says, "Yeah, Dick. We're gonna be okay."
Because… hell if Jason actually knows that. Well… he does, he'll drag Dick kicking and screaming to 'okay' if it kills him, but…
Jesus, he's tired. Tired, and… heavy. Everything just feels really goddamn heavy. He's exhausted, and just hoping like hell that Dick can't see it.

Summary
"So. About this whole 'if something happens to one of us, you're gonna swallow a pharmacy again' thing."
As an opener, it makes Dick wince. Because putting it like that sounds bad. And that's not even what Dick said. At least… he didn't say it like that.
"That's not… I just… I meant I couldn't take losing one of you again," he says quietly, staring out the window. "It's not like…"
He struggles for a minute, trying to figure out how to put it into words. To Jason's credit, he stays silent, watching the road, as Dick tries to pull his thoughts together, to figure out the best way to say it.

Summary
Dick stares at Jason. Then at the worm Jason is holding out to him. Then back at Jason.
"Are you for real?"
Jason rolls his eyes so hard, Dick wants to make a comment about them getting stuck in the back of his head. He doesn't, but only because he's more mature than that.
