No, no, no you got it all wrong. Jason Todd gives good advice. Great advice even. It’s just that the way he says it, in that gruff, low tone, makes it seem like he couldn’t care less, when in reality he is anything but uninterested. I mean, that man has expertise on anything. Literally anything. You can’t die once and not now what you’re talking about, am I right?
And when he doesn’t - well a little late night research never killed anybody (and he wouldn’t mind going to the grave for a second time, now that it’s for you).
He’s so pathetically in love already, a little typing and memorizing is nothing compared to the stuff he’d be willing to do for you unprompted.
Whether it’s advice on that job offer you took or how to cook that dish he made you that you adored - there’s nothing he wouldn’t help you with. It’s his way of showing love, of earning his place by your side, as he likes to think. It sounds silly really. Telling you how to do something isn’t groundbreaking. Yet every time you ask him for help, no matter how mundane, he can’t help but feel a surge of pride swell in his chest. The thought that you, the person he adores more than anything in the world, want him to help, that you trust his expertise even if he doesn’t have it - that you just want to talk to him!!! It makes his heart beat out of his chest, his brain short-circuiting, every single time. without fail
He often plays it off with a scoff and a “god, you’re clueless sometimes” and yet?
You could be asking him how to fix your broken sink and he’d look at you like you hung the moon in the sky solely for his eyes to witness.
he loves you in the only way he knows how to - by making himself useful ⋆.𐙚 ̊ ᥫ᭡
