[Him distracting from the literal knife wound in his shoulder? Nah. Besides, he's almost at the safehouse and it really wasn't that bad. A few stitches and a couple carefully forged doctor's note to get out of P.E. for a week and no one would even know.]
Okay maybe a little bit. Here, hopefully this explains it.
[ Wren attaches a video to this where they go through the problem giving a step by step guide for the problem. Sure, Jason could probably just fastforward to the end because Wren totally gives the answer, but they trust he actually wants to learn! Which includes pointing out "I think the teacher meant we need to add this, but the word choice makes it sound like subtraction, but the correct answer can only be achieved with adding... should we point this out to him...?" ]
[Thing is, he does actually want to learn. He loves it. He soaks up knowledge as much as he can, including watching that video three times while he's patching himself up and sending Bruce a 'I'm okay, at the Grapevine safehouse. Pick me up when you're done?' text.
Because of that, it's a minute before Wren gets an answer.]
We can point it out, but you know he's just gunna tell us that he's been teaching for longer than we've been alive or some shit.
So does that mean the answer to 6 is 92? Cause I was getting something else, but that makes way more sense.
[ They figure he needs time to watch it, and also get a bandage probably. It's technically after lights out so they need to pretend to be asleep when someone goes down the hall outside, phone dimmed and hidden under the blankets.
They know there's a lot of reasons for Jason to not reply right away, but they still worry. Sometimes it feels like they worry so much it has to be the worst superpower ever. They let put a little sigh of relief to get a message finally. ]
Yeah, you got it! :) At least I'm like 99% sure that's what he meant for us to get because nothing else makes sense.
[He doesn't like making them worry, but he also doesn't really have a choice. He can't come out and say that he's Robin and that Bruce was Batman. So he just did what he could, keeping them in the loop as much as he can.]
Bet you ten bucks half the class has no idea what he meant, either. I'm just lucky enough to have you to help explain things. You know I hate numbers.
You're probably gunna be on your own tomorrow, but I'll be back on Thursday, I promise. Also, you should be asleep, songbird.
You've already made it make so much more sense, so thanks!
I'm fine, Wren. You won't even be able to tell I fell by Thursday, I promise. The worst part of all of this is going to be B's lecture when he finds out.
[That, at least, wasn't a lie. He and Bruce had been butting heads for a few months, ever since he'd busted a guy's collarbone on the last trafficking case they'd worked on.

[ Because of Jason, let's be real. Wren almost never snuck out of the trailer. ]
That's awful, you're awful. I definitely didn't laugh.

It's hard to like something when it doesn't make sense. It will, though!
... Is it really that bad? Are you home?

He still wasn't sorry.]

Why would he lecture? Shouldn't he just be happy you're okay?
no subject
And you know Bruce. He's...yeah. I'll be fine, it'll be fine. Go to sleep, or you'll feel like ass tomorrow when I'm not around to cheer you up. :P
no subject
I'd be awake worrying and feeling bad tomorrow and missing you anyway.
