[Oh. Jason goes quiet, absorbing what Bruce is saying. He's felt insufficient more than once since arriving and more before leaving the Titans. He lets his gaze drift away before he nods.]
Yeah. I really-- [Jason huffs out a breath.] Thanks. For, uh, seeing me.
[Jason steps out and struggles to pull the sleeve of his hoodie over splint like he wants. He gets frustrated, takes off the splint and tosses it back in the passenger seat.]
I'll wear it when I get back. I promise I won't do any arm wrestling or anything, okay?
( he knows what he's getting at with calling him that. he's not old. so, with a shake of his head and licking over his lips, he looks ahead and gives a wave to the other. )
Have fun.
( because lord knows he's never had any of it since his coming here to etraya, so. it's good one of them does. )

I don't want you to feel alone. That you're... not enough. As Robin or as Jason.
( at that, he glances to jason there out of the corner of his eye. )
I'm glad you have someone who sees you as enough.
( chrissy, he means. )

Yeah. I really-- [Jason huffs out a breath.] Thanks. For, uh, seeing me.
[He thought Bruce meant himself.]

( something he's repeatedly told the other as a sort of reassurance that he isn't alone. that he has someone who cares. )
You planning on spending the night here?

[Jason frowns over at Bruce. What kind of boyfriend does Bruce think he is?]
no subject
I wasn't implying anything. I was seeing if you wanted me to come back and get you later.
no subject
Or I can take the trolley.
no subject
( it's not like he has a lot to do around here on his own, what with this not being gotham and all. )

( and at that, he pulls up outside the apartments there, engine humming as he glances over to jason. )
Got everything?

I'll wear it when I get back. I promise I won't do any arm wrestling or anything, okay?
no subject
When you get back.
( he'll hold you to that. )
no subject
Relax, dad, I'll put it back on tonight.
[He rarely calls Bruce 'dad,' and he's not really calling him that in the context. He's making light of Bruce's worry. Unsurprising.]
no subject
Have fun.
( because lord knows he's never had any of it since his coming here to etraya, so. it's good one of them does. )

Jason waves Bruce off before entering the apartment building.]
