Finally got to see keinemuwolf and it was SO FRUSTRATING, ugh.
My OT3 will always be canon in my heart, period.
(Hiding in anon bc I’m a coward)
So. Prior to the Squad, it’s highly likely that Jason hadn’t interacted with other people much/consistently since Arkham, and Arkham wasn’t exactly a good time to learn how to interact with people who weren’t intending to horrifically torture you for lols. Therefore, Jason would have likely needed to relearn (to a degree)how to deal with people.
So, I guess what I’m asking, is how much was Jason socialized, for lack of a word, by the Squad prior to Militia Time. Because Antoine is guessing he’s quiet because of Awkwardness, but he eventually relaxes a bit around them. And I bet a small group of people he sees consistently and frequently and can learn to trust as individuals is a good training run for dealing with large groups of people, where it’s not feasible to know all of them personally/deeply.
Jason: You make me sound like a beaten Chihuahua.
Antoine: You kind of were, in hindsight. Minus the biting.
Jason: ...is it better or worse if I admit to being a bitey bastard child.
Antoine: Neither, it's neither.
Jason: I trusted you. Wow. Anyways. I didn't know what I was doing in general. Not how to run an army, not really...much of anything that wasn't, ah. Well.
Antoine: Overkill?
Jason: >-( So. No one can accuse me of not being a fast learner--last I checked, anyway--but. Yeah. Something like that. Not like I had a lot of friends before that clusterfuck went down, anyway. No time, and. Well. Y'know these private schools, the friend groups are set up in kindergarten, they don't have a lot of interest in new kids. Great academics, which is what mattered to me anyway, but not much for a social life.
