[ he's close to when he said he'd be there. but he comes strolling in, his hands firmly in his pocket, as he cranes his neck to look around the abandoned warehouse, before settling on Damian. ]
[ getting a titans tower, or something similar, took a lot of time.
and money. and it's not like they had golden credit cards to speed the process up any. but he takes a moment to look at his arm-- its uselessness is hard to ignore, and it's hard to hide the skepticism in his face about doing this so soon. ]
[ if he's anything like jason, he'll put up a hell of a fight regardless. but what he remembers of jason at this age is all unrefined anger and brute strength, coming out at whatever it could.
could be this one is different. universes are like that. ]
[ forgive him for being skeptical about how this is gonna go. sure, if he's part of their family, he's as well trained as they come. and then some. but jason's been through a lot of the same training.
maybe not "hey deal with as much pain as possible" training.

no subject

Alright. Just saying, I gave you the option to say "not today."
[ he did the right thing. he pushed back that they didn't have to do this. if damian wanted to, who was he to stop him? ]

maybe not.
but still. ]
no subject
[ hes genetically incapable of it ]

[ let it never be said that Jason Todd shied away from a fight. even if it was with a one-armed future brother.
and probably ill-advised.
he's not supposed to be the responsible one. ]
