( Fist balled there against Jason's chest, he brings it up and slams it down next to the other's head. There's frustration there burning in his eyes β the very same that Jason himself feels and holds so tightly within him and it takes Bruce a second before he pulls himself off Jason and stalks away.
He stands there, back to the other, eyes closed as he tries to just... center himself. To not let whatever remains of the toxin within his system to touch his mind in ways that will make this worse.
Jaw tight, he sighs β heavy, head tipping back as if asking some higher force to give him whatever strength he needs for this. For Jason. )
It's my fault for not making you see or believe that. I should have. I should have... told you that I care more. At all.
( Swallowing, he turns slightly, just enough for Jason to see the shadows across his face. )
