Dick put the energy drink back and grabbed another coke for himself, taking a sip and considering what Jason said. He couldn't help but nod approvingly, although it made him wonder - what was different about this Jason to his own? He was clearly still Robin, for a start, though he seems older than this world's Jason was when it happened. Had he escaped that somehow, or was it still in his future? Dick dearly hoped for the former.
"Yea. Sometimes I think it's deliberate, you know how B hates guns, so of course Jason has to have guns, but..." he shrugged, glancing down at his hands as he traced a finger through the condensation forming on the side of his can "Jason's been through a lot. It's left him... bitter. More than he even was before. He doesn't just want criminals stopped or imprisoned or rehabilitated, he wants them gone..." and the joker most of all. He didn't really want to get into that, he didn't want to scare the guy, so he forced himself to brighten up and looked up at the other Jason again.
"He's still my brother and I love him, and he's better than he was when he first got back, he's just... still a work in progress."
