I actually just wrote something that made me cry??? Shit, this is saying way too much about me---there's definitely some unexplored feelings in here xD
For context: The tears started immediately once I wrote the convo Bruce has with Jason after he saves him. Brought to you by the line, "
“I understand,” Bruce said. It was the last thing Jason expected to hear.
Understand? I wanted to kill you. I tried to kill you, and Tim got hurt in the process. You can’t possibly—
“You were angry, Jason. You wanted the people who hurt you to hurt, too. But you never followed through; you could have, but you didn’t. You controlled yourself.”
“And you understand that?”
“I understand the anger,” Bruce said. “But I could never do what you did—”
For a moment, Jason wondered if this was it. He was being denounced. Thrown out, like the street trash he had always been inside. Then—
“I never would have stopped after I crossed that line. And I’m sorry that I can’t give that to you. That I expected you to do what I can’t. I never should have placed that on your shoulders.” (that one, right there. OUCH.)
Jason hiccuped. “Alfred must have been talking to you.”
Bruce chuckled, deep and low. “He has, but that’s not why I said it. I said it because I needed you to hear it. You belong here, Jason, you always have."
haha no, what was that. ALSO I AM ALMOST DONE THE LAST CHAPTER IM SPEEDING THROUGH THIS LIKE SONIC FINALLYYYYYYY---
once this is finally over, I shall have myself a spring wedding, and all of yall are invited
