[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle

Arguing with Jason was a useless thing, because Dick would get nothing good if he lost, and would get even less good if he won, so he basically did not engage in verbal arguments with Jason unless necessary.

But when it comes to life issues, even though he knows he will get kicked in the ass if he wins the argument and will be pissed off if he loses, Dick still yells at Jason.

However, what he didn't expect was that little Robin, who always refused to give in, only argued with him for a minute or two symbolically this time, then took a step back, raised his hands to indicate a truce, and turned around to finish the case.

This was almost the first time Dick won an argument with Jason, and because the victory came so easily, it felt a little unreal.

When Jason finished what he was doing, Dick still looked a little dazed, and Little Robin silently grabbed his wrist.

Nightwing shook his head: "It's okay, my heart rate is normal."

Little Robin nodded: "I know, if it's not normal, I have already suggested that you take Betaloc (a medicine to regulate heart rate)."

At this moment, Nightwing realized that there was something wrong with the way little Robin walked. He probably fell when Raven threw him out of the cage and he frowned.

"Which part is hurt?"

Little Robin: "It's just a sprain, it's nothing serious, just go back and put on a plaster."

Nightwing immediately half-knelt down and began to forcibly take off Robin's shoes. Robin struggled a few times and had to hold on to his shoulders to keep his balance.

My ankles have started to get red and swollen.

Nightwing said decisively: "I'll carry you back."

Robin quickly put on his shoes and was about to leave.

"No, it's just a minor injury."

"As an athlete, the ankle is one of the key parts. You have a competition next month, so don't try to be tough now."

Nightwing ran to him and squatted down, saying firmly: "Come up, or do you want me to carry you back directly?"

Seeing his boyfriend say this, Jason looked at the eyes of the people around him and felt that if he continued to argue with Dick, their relationship would no longer be hidden. He coughed, feeling a little uncomfortable, but feeling very sweet in his heart, he lay on Nightwing's back and was carried well.

Compared to little Robin, who is less than 79 meters tall, Dick, who is meters tall and weighs kilograms, is tall and strong, with particularly broad shoulders and back, making one feel very safe lying on him.

Kid Flash praised Dick in a teasing tone, calling him a "good brother". Jason lowered his head and said nothing, and Dick just smiled.

They didn't know if they had brotherhood, but their love was real. When Dick saw Jason in danger, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

Fortunately, the boy is okay, otherwise Dick wouldn’t know what to do.

On the way back, White Dove walked up to them and asked Little Robin with a smile: "I just heard Nightwing say that you are an athlete. What sport is it? Do you also practice gymnastics?"

Little Robin was almost asleep. Hearing this, he replied a little slowly: "I practice figure skating."

"figure skating?"

Seeing that everyone looked confused, Ye Yi, the only ice fan at the scene, had an expression on his face that could be described as cocky, but not just cocky.

He talked endlessly about the rules of the competition, saying that his little Wing skater was very good at skating and was invincible among his peers, and even the adult players were not as good as him.

Batgirl walked silently aside, and the more she listened, the more something seemed wrong.

Dick had never had a younger brother before, so Barbara didn't know what Dick's attitude towards the fraternity was, but at least she could confirm that Dick and Jason had not had a good relationship before.

It's all polite. Barbara knew that "Robin" was the nickname Dick's mother gave him. It held great significance to him. It was his first code name when he entered the world of superheroes and a testimony to the years he fought side by side with Batman. And less than a year after Dick and Bruce fell out, Jason got this code name from Bruce.

Intellectually, Barbara knew that Jason had done nothing wrong in this matter. Whether the boy became Robin out of a reckless desire for fame, revenge on the dark side of Gotham that had hurt him, or a real desire to pursue justice, they were naturally opposed in this regard.

But now, Dick was so proud of Jason's skating that he even showed off his own child like a fool.

Isn't this interesting? In the past, when Dick was dating his girlfriends, no matter how gentle and considerate he was, he was actually the type who rarely took the initiative to enter his girlfriend's life. Even if the person he was dating was a superhero, he and his girlfriend would at most act together, date in their spare time, or just go somewhere to have sex.

He may try to learn about his girlfriend's profession, but he has never fallen in love with her career from the bottom of his heart.

But now, a person who had no interest in ice and snow sports before, knows all the classic programs and famous players in figure skating like the back of his hand, and can even tell who has the best skating and the best spin among the current players.

Just by looking at his expression, no one would doubt Dick's love for figure skating.

Is it true that Dick Grayson treats his brothers much better than he treats his girlfriend?

That may be the case.

Barbara lowered her eyes. Isn't it the same for many men? To them, love is never the most important thing. Above love there are career, friendship, family and justice. Knowing this, she decided to take a step back and be Nightwing's comrade and family member. After all, that is much better than the love ending with the two becoming strangers.

Maybe she should be nicer to Jason in the future. The last time the Joker forced Batman to choose between the city and Robin, Jason gave up on himself without hesitation. It was the same this time. He asked everyone to save others first and gave up his own chance to escape.

The kid was very young, but he always put other people's lives above his own. No matter what happened in the past, at least he had a kind heart and did not tarnish the name of Robin.

Nightwing was still promoting Amway: "Of course, the best jumper in the world right now is Little Wing. He is trying the quadruple Lutz (4F). If he succeeds, he will be the first athlete in the world to complete this jump, balabala..."

Little Robin listened for a while, and felt embarrassed by the praise. He tapped Nightwing's shoulder and said, "Stop talking, okay? I'm not sure if I can succeed!"

Nightwing shut up obediently.

By the way, the dove later thanked Jason, and on the way home, Jason said to Dick: "Your ex-girlfriends are all good girls. I'm not saying that B's exes are bad. Selena has a good personality, but overall, your taste seems to be more popular."

But they are all pretty good, with great looks and bodies, and they are all independent and have their own personalities. They have their own careers that they want to work hard for. Sometimes Jason even thinks that they are at a loss for meeting playboys like Bruce and Dick.

Dick supported the child's thighs to prevent him from sliding down.

"Excuse me, you are dating one of those playboys right now, but I never get involved with anyone else during a relationship, so how can I be a playboy?"

Dick can say that he is serious about every girlfriend he has, and he is absolutely gentle and considerate. Moreover, including the time he was in love with Jason, he has been single for a whole year! For a European and American man with his appearance, he is really very clean, right?

As for Jason's praise of his current boyfriend and his adoptive father's ex-girlfriends, Dick had so much to complain about that he didn't know where to start.

Finally he asked Jason, "Do you think Catwoman has a good personality?"

Jason nodded as a matter of course: "She has a good personality."

Every time she saw him smoking, Catwoman would pinch off his cigarette butt and then take him out to eat. Although Jason always paid for his own meals when Catwoman took him out to eat, having a female elder pinch off his cigarette butt was something Jason had always wished for.

In short, Catwoman is like a kind big sister next door to Jason. Like Natasha, she is a lady he likes very much. He has always liked this kind of alpha lady.

Dick looked subtle, and then an idea flashed through his mind. He asked Jason again: "What do you think of B's ​​personality and your own?"

Jason thought for a moment, then put on a fair and respectful expression and said, "We both have some character flaws, but if we ignore those flaws, we can be considered the type of people who can get along well with each other."

Dick: "..."

The case was solved, and even Bruce rated him as "someone you can get along with", so Jason's heart was bigger than Dick thought.

It was not until much later that Dick realized the point of Jason's words was not "being able to get along well" but "ignoring flaws". To put it bluntly, Jason's tolerance for his family was higher than most people imagined. Sometimes he looked like he was about to lose his temper, but in fact he could still endure it.

Jason just loved Bruce and this family too much.

Just like at this moment, everyone thought that Jason chose to give up his life and let the cage containing himself fall in order to protect others. This was indeed part of the reason. Another reason was that when little Robin stood in the position of being chosen, he felt insecure and would rather give up himself first than listen to the final answer.

If only Dick could understand this now, but unfortunately, by the time he knew it, it was already too late.

Since the Teen Titans came to Gotham to help, Dick wanted to take them out to play when he got the chance, or at least have a meal together to bond with them.

Jason didn't want to go at first, but Dick pulled his hand and coaxed him: "If there is a time conflict, the dinner time can be set after six o'clock. It will just be a dinner, so it won't interfere with your homework and night patrol."

Because Dickie Bird's blue eyes were so beautiful, Jason had no choice but to change into casual clothes and follow. During the dinner, he sat quietly in his seat, did not make any sarcastic remarks about anyone, did not make any humorous jokes involving dirty words, and did not express his overly realistic and sharp opinions in the conversation. Instead, this improved everyone's impression of him.

Kid Flash even handed Jason a piece of pizza and joked, "You look pretty cute when you're not talking or moving."

Jason took the pizza and smiled at Wally. Little Robin had a very handsome face after taking off the mask. At this moment, he was smiling so quietly under the light, which was almost beautiful enough to make people blush.

Dick was very grateful that Jason was willing to control his temper and get along well with everyone for him. When no one was paying attention, he secretly held his boyfriend's hand tightly. Jason winked at him, which made Dick unable to hold back his joy and he almost kissed Jason.

Later, Jason asked Dick and his friends to say goodbye first, and he returned to the Batcave to make preparations for the night patrol so that Dick could change his equipment and start working immediately after he returned.

He was always very efficient in his work. It didn't take long for him to find everything and put it neatly on the table. He even had time to take a shower in the hot water room to wash away the food smell from the party.

When taking a bath alone, Jason doesn't like to turn on the lights. Instead, he will light a candle and place it next to the mirror, then look up and enjoy the feeling of hot water pouring on his body, as if this can wash away all his fatigue.

Five minutes later, little Robin turned off the hot water, walked to the mirror and looked at himself with a blank expression.

It's really strange. It's just a dinner party, but it's more tiring than fighting criminals.

He likes to speak directly, no matter whether it hurts anyone or not. When he gets emotional, he likes to use words starting with s or f. His views on things are always a little sharp and extreme, but if someone thinks his point of view is wrong, Jason is not unwilling to listen to other people's opinions.

However, as long as he changed himself a little, suppressed his temper, and held back the anger that wanted to kill those criminals, this child who came from the dirtiest and most chaotic alleys, who was physically deformed and who once made a living by stealing, could become lucky.

He can be Robin, the golden boy, stand beside Batman, get the love of Nightwing, and the members of the Teen Titans who once looked up to him will also say, "It turns out you are a good person."

It felt really strange, like those people only loved Robin, and if they found out he wasn't Robin, they might leave.

Jason knew that this idea was wrong. He was nothing when he met Bruce, but Bruce still adopted him, taught him the skills to fight criminals, sent him to school, hired a tutor for him, and allowed him to wear nice clothes and fly on ice. All of this was just the result of his insecure heart.

But he still can't help but wonder, is it that I am not good enough as I am now? Why am I so unhappy now?

“I have to learn to wait.”

Jason told himself that he must learn to survive the cold winter and wait for the spring to come. One day, he will grow into a secure adult, and Bruce will identify with him and trust him, and he will be able to face himself more calmly and love Dick better.

Well, it's okay. He has survived so many bad days in the past. Now he has his own new uniform. He is no one's replacement. Everything is getting better. Cheer up!
