Dick needs to control the brat

Comments

That's kind of you. I am... glad you care for him. He... He may not deserve your care now but- [he bites his tongue] Thank you. Jason was a better brother than I deserved.

Kid, you have got everything backwards. Care is exactly what he deserves, something every kid deserves. It's not something you're supposed to earn. That's not how family works.

[Dami turns his face away a little, hiding a flush of colour.] Thank you. That... It means a lot to me.

[Jason reaches out to ruffle Damian's hair.] You turned out alright, huh?

[demonalone]

[Dami struggles not to duck his head, blushing even darker.] No, no I didn't. I helped my brother to take revenge on my mother. It cost me everyone I ever loved.

Aw kid. [Jason should probably not get in the habit of hugging strange Damians, but the kid looks like he needs it.]

[demonalone]

[Dami shouldn't cling but he can't not. Just... being near Jason again. He buries his face in Jason's arm, fighting not to sob.]

Hey it's alright. [Okay it probably isn't, but what else can he say.]

[demonalone]

[It takes Dami a moment to pull himself back together.] I am sorry. Forgive me. I miss my Jason very much. He was... we became very close before...

[worth_the_cost]

I'm sorry, kid. You're all on your own now?

[demonalone]

[He nods, hiding his face until he can pull himself together.] Yes. There is... no-one else left.
