⠀⠀⠀i didn't mean what i said . well— the caring for you part, i did. i meant all the things about worrying about you.
⠀⠀⠀
jason , i mean it from the bottom of my heart , you have changed for the better .
( the guilt clenches onto his heart . )
do you want help apartment hunting ?
not that bruce and i WANT you to move out , no , no ! we .. we don't want you to be alone , you know ?
ᅠ It’s easy to say people have changed just to ease the situation right͟? Who knows. Maybe I haven’t and you and B are right. 【 Silencedˏ then he adjusts his brown jacket .. 】 I’ll be outˏ think I’ll go apartment hunting or something.
( there's a moment of struggle. he can't exactly say he didn't expect it considering his words earlier .. )
i didn't mean it that way . i know that you had a hard past —
( clark winces . that's not the right move . )
you / have / changed . for the better .
jason , wait —— i never —
( his lips purse . the unintentional double meaning had made him realize how irrational he was being . )
jay . . .
( a hand reaches out , placing itself on the other's shoulder . ) i didn't mean it like that ——
ᅠ Don’t say thatˏ im nobody’s sonˏ and i can live without you two expecting nothing but trouble from me. 【 He’s got clenched fists and white knuckles .. shoving his helmet back on before staring too long results in .. Tears͟?】 I know I grew up differently from you
like i said , we / know / , not think .
you'll use it against me to get your way in favours . like now — if you had kryptonite , you'd use it just to get me to agree to letting you blow up a part of the batcave , WHICH ! ( ☝️ ) is NOT . happening .
