"He's right, we are"
-B!- Jason didn't know what to do, should he move and get away from all of them or should he face his 'father' and 'brother'. He didn't know and it seemed Bruce was using that fact to come closer. Jason could hear him close in on their little group. He was in the middle of that, with Bruce at his back, Dick in front of him and Damian next to him. Damian who hadn't said anything since the others had appeared Jason realized now. And where was Babs, Damian had said that she was here too, hadn't he? But then he felt Bruce coming even closer and he knew that if he wanted to do something he had to do it now. Within the next second he freed himself from Dick's grasp (who was still holding on to him by his arms) and turned around to face his supposed-to-be-father figure.
The look in Jason's eyes made Bruce almost back away. Bruce had expected to see anger and while it was certainly there the boy's eyes showed so much more emotions than just anger. What surprised him the most was all the pain and sorrow he saw in those blue-green eyes. That first moment Jason looked so young it made Bruce think of the first time he'd ever seen him as an almost ten years old child but then his eyes hardened and his whole face with it. Now he didn't look like that little boy anymore, instead Bruce was looking at the face of a man who had long since seen his share of evil in the world. It was something Bruce knew to be true, he had always known Jason was so much older than he looked. The boy had already lived through so much before he'd even reached the age of ten and what had Bruce done this damaged child when he had had the chance to help him? He'd just thrown him back into all the craziness and violence of this cruel world without even once stopping to think if it was the right thing to do. No, he had been missing Dick so much that when he found this child he used it to restore the balance in his life by making Jason into a second Dick. It had been so selfish to think that being Robin would fix the boy when it had only been himself he had been helping. That was the thing, wasn't it? He had never thought about it that way before but that didn't make it any less true. He had tried to turn him into Dick and by doing that he had betrayed the trust of the little boy who had grown up to be the young man currently standing in front of him. And then Bruce did something he barely ever did: he acted purely on emotion. He took a step forward and before the both of them knew what had happened Bruce had Jason enveloped in a hug and was muttering about how he was sorry over and over again.
"You're sorry? Why would you be sorry for something that was my fault? If anyone it should be me who's sorry." Jason said after taking in everything that had just happened. He had never seen Bruce this way and certainly not while in uniform. To say he was confused didn't nearly cover it right then. He was also still figuring out if he should hug back or not but that choice was taken from him when Bruce loosened his grip on him a little to look him in the eye before saying "What do you have to be sorry for Jason? I'm the one who brought you into this life and I'm the one who wasn't there for you when you needed me. I was too late to save you and after that it took me this long to find out you were alive and to figure out where you were. So yes, I think I have more than enough reasons to be sorry."
Jason was rendered speechless, this wasn't what he had expected to happen when he would see them and especially Bruce again. Sure, he'd known Dick would be kind of like this but then again Dick was sort of an idiot. But Bruce? Jason had never seen him this emotional and it kinda scared him. He had wanted to be mad, hell he'd been mad plenty since the pit but now all the rage that had been the primary thing that kept him going wasn't directed anywhere anymore. Until now Bruce had been the focus of his rage, mainly because he didn't think Bruce had ever cared for him or seen him as more than a replaceable soldier, which had been confirmed in his eyes when he learned of the existence of a third Robin. But that thought pattern was hard to maintain after seeing Bruce acting the way he was right now.
Dick sensed that Jason didn't know what to do next and because Cass had joined them by then he had the luminous idea to introduce her to Jason. So he said "Hey Jay. There's someone here who'd like to meet you." and pointed towards Cass.
Upon hearing his name Jason turned towards them and the following moment Dick could see first confusion, then surprise and then … was that anger in his expression?
"Who the fuck's that?" Jason burst out "And where's Babs?"
Dick saw something he recognized as fear in his brother's eyes and was quick to counter "No, no, it's not like that. Babs is fine, she's running operations back in Gotham."
He saw Jason look at him suspicious before asking "So she's okay?" with narrowed eyes.
Now Dick felt the need to be very cautious when answering to that "Yeah sure, she's fine."
"You sure, 'cause you don't seem too certain about that yourself." Jason replied, clearly still not entirely convinced.
Dick sighed and raked his hand through his hair before saying "Some things changed while you were away Jay, and I know Babs wont appreciate me telling you so you'll have to ask her yourself. All you need to know until then is that Babs is no longer Batgirl and that she chose Cass to carry on the name."
The suspicion in Jason's eyes was mostly replaced by surprise now "She asked this kid to be Batgirl?"
"Uhm Jason, this 'kid' is the same age you are, probably even a bit older."
Now Jason looked stumped "What! But she's so small!"
"Yeah she is but that doesn't mean she has to be young, now does it?"
Now it was Jason's turn to rake his hand through his hair before saying "No, I guess you're right." Then he looked at Cass again "Sorry for that. So I'm Jason, nice to meet you." He said with an apologetic smile while holding out his hand for her to shake but Cass didn't take the hand and instead flew into his arms to hug him. Jason's eyes went big before he said "What is it with you people and hugging today? I mean come on, does everyone here crave physical contact that much that you all have to hug me?" But when he saw how it made everyone uncomfortable, even Damian seemed uneasy and he'd never seen the kid looking anything but confident, he said "Hey people that was a joke, okay! Jeez, don't you even know what those are anymore." Then he asked the girl that was still smothering him "So who are you exactly and is there a reason you had to hug me?"
When she didn't answer it was Dick who spoke instead "Her name is Cassandra and we recently found out she's your sister."
"The fuck? Since when do I have a sister?" Now Jason was shocked. This was absolutely not what he had expected to hear.
Once again Dick was the one to try and explain everything. "Remember how you tried to find your real mother and found Haywood."
Jason nodded, of course he remembered, that bitch was the reason he'd died so no way he'd forget about that. He wanted to say something but Dick continued.
"Well turns out she was an even bigger bitch than we all thought she was because she wasn't even your real mother. And before you say something yes we're sure. We tested you're DNA against hers and it wasn't a match. Instead we found out that you have the same mother as Cass here. And that's not all, we also found out that Willis wasn't your father, though were not sure if he knew that."
Now Jason snorted "Do you think that fucking bastard would have let me live in his house if he thought I wasn't his. I can tell you with certainty that if what you are saying is true he surely didn't know about it. But if they weren't my parents then who are? And why did they leave me in Crime Alley?"
"Well we don't know who your mother is or was but we do know the identity of your father because he raised for the first couple of years and we've got is DNA. Your father is…"
But then Bruce interrupted "There's no need for Ra's and his league to know all this so we'll come back to that later."
Jason wondered for a moment what Bruce meant with that before his eyes fell on Damian and he understood what was bothering Bruce. Then he nodded and decided he had to think about everything that just happened so he said "Can you guys wait here while I pack my stuff. I just completed my training here so they'll expect me to be gone as soon as possible." Then he turned around and began walking in the direction of the living quarters when Cass grabbed his hands and began to walk with him. He mentally shrugged and let her.
