conversations overheard through the batkid com lines pt 1 (masterpost here)
Jason: yeah me and B are on ok terms now,
Dick: oh you guys are getting along-?
Jason: well we’re doing ok, I’m not mad at him anymore.
Dick: thought you wanted him to kill the Joker?
Jason: i did, but then like last week i went to the manor and i saw him smash the coffee machine with a hammer because it didn’t fill his mug enough; and i just don’t think he’d be a good killer.
Dick: *light wheeze* because he broke the coffee machine?
Jason: well it was just- *cracked grin* he gets- he gets angry, you know? and he’s not good at self control? like that machine did nothing and he just destroyed it. and i was just thinking about how, like, he decided that adopting kids was an acceptable thing to do, and now he has like eleven of us,
Jason: like he can’t see a kid without thinking ‘wonder if i can draft this one’. i think if we managed to convince him killing was ok it wouldn’t go well. he’d just keep doing it.
Dick: *through laughter* because of no self control?
Jason: yeah, like once he crosses that line he’d probably step over it at any minor inconvenience. he gets addicted and he gets mad at a lot of things.
Dick: so B shouldn’t kill?
Jason: well i- *wheeze* i have practice honing the rage, i don’t kill for stupid reasons. *pause* apart from that one time.
Dick, audibly amused: what time?
Jason: i sneezed and accidentially pressed the trigger.
Jason: i felt bad, man, like his cat was there-
Dick: *falls off his chair*
Jason: how are you this apathetic.
Dick: is that where Damian’s new cat came from?
Jason: it’s not like i could just leave it there!
Dick: i thought i saw trauma in it’s eyes. it had that wartime stare.
Jason: the blood spattered right across its fur. i had to bathe it.
Dick: Damian thinks it has anxiety
Jason: anxiet- dude it has more than anxiety, it has fucking PTSD-
