it's great!

Jason knew he would regret owing Oracle a favor from way back when. Desperate times, though. Truthfully though, Oracle is probably one of the only people who could ask Jason to do something and he'd do it with very little argument. She's not like the rest of them. Not in Jason's head, anyway.

This is a pretty big thing to ask of Jason, though. He's the last person for the job, he insists. He might be the most freakish of them all with his touch-starved repression, and don't even get him started on trying to admit he has feelings and emotions, even though that's all that ever drives him.

The thing is, it's not just details of what Oracle is asking him to do that bother him- it's the person, too. He and Tim... they have a complicated relationship, to say the least. The main problem is that if there were anyone he had to cuddle up with, it would probably be Tim, which only makes Jason want to run from it even more.

But it's life or death, Oracle says, and he does owe her, so he heads to Tim's very reluctantly, letting himself in with the pass code Oracle supplied him with. He doesn't really know what to expect, but it's definitely not Tim looking smaller than ever as he's got himself so curled into the couch that it's hard to see where the couch ends and where Tim begins.

"Honey, I'm home," he deadpans, tossing his jacket aside and kicking his boots off next to the couch. he has a feeling he might be here a while, whether he likes it or not. He wonders if Oracle had informed Tim that it would be him babysitting tonight.
