1. just depressed.
Things are tough, you're feeling worn out, or whatever the case, you're depressed. You need help or someone else thinks you do anyway.

2. abandoned.
You were left behind by everyone you hold dear and now you're forced to see how well they've adjusted, how happy they all are while you're screaming inside.

3. sick.
Cold, flu, or something even worse, all you can do is lay back and let someone take care of you.

4. fight.
You've been fighting nonstop with the other person and it just keep escalating.

5. break up.
You're being broken up with and they won't reconsider... Damn.

6. separated.
For some reason, you've been separated from the other person for a long time.

7. kidnapped.
You've been held captive for how long now? Maybe they've been torturing you even, using your blood to write ransom notes, threatening to cut off fingers to send next, etc. Rescue is on the way though, right?

8. beaten up.
Just because someone didn't like you or maybe they wanted something you had, whatever the case is, you're coming home sporting some nasty wounds and bruises.

9. jealousy.
You just have this undeniable jealousy suddenly and you need to let it out.

10. cheated on.
This goes beyond just suspicion and you have full on proof of what your lover has done. How do you handle it?

11. apathetic.
You're not sad, you're not happy, you just... don't feel much anymore. The sparkle of life has gone right out of you and you're just going through the motions now.

12. addicted.
Drugs, alcohol, whatever your drug of choice is, you can't fight the draw and you can't draw yourself out of the hole, but the other person is going to try.

13. bad romance.
You know this isn't good for either of you, but you can't stop now.

14. fear.
Nightmares, the feeling someone is following you, etc. You can't shake the feeling.

15. insanity.
You're seeing things and hearing them, waking up only to realize you've done things you don't remember or you're in a place you weren't before. You're losing it and you don't know what to do.

16. guilt.
It's eating you up inside and you have to tell someone about it now. You want to be punished and you won't take no for an answer.

17. loss
You've lost something dear to you.

18. wild card.
Combine some options or make your own!

( Again, something he has to live with, as he does with all his choices. Still stumbling along through the night at times — trying to find that balance of Bruce and The Batman while not letting himself beat the crooks he hunts down to a pulp despite the temptation to. It's hard not to slip up sometimes — hard not to try and be better after everything.

So he looks up, sigh there on his lips and he looks tired. Emotionally. )

Killing him wouldn't have brought you back.

( He shakes his head, looking off. )

It wouldn't bring my parents back.

( To kill the one[s] responsible for that. But Jason had come back, though not as a direct result of killing anyone. He shouldn't have come back. Much as part of him is glad to see him alive again, he should be at peace, he thinks. Not ripped from whatever semblance of it he might have found and thrust back into the cesspool that is Gotham. That's what they can barely keep together in terms of a relationship with one another. )

You deserved better.

[ Jason doesn't think that's better. he thinks it's weak. but what does he know? he was following fucking Crane since coming back from the dead. maybe even before then, because of what he felt was Bruce's betrayal.

Jason knocks back the rest of his drink, then moves forward, hard look in his eyes as he grabs the bottle again. if Bruce tries to stop him, they might throw hands right here and now. ]

But it would stop them from hurting anyone else, wouldn't it.

[Jason will agree with Bruce there, though. he shouldn't have come back, and there have been so many nights since then that he's wished he was dead. dead, rather than being a victim. that's the last fucking thing he wants to be, and yet it's everything he turned himself into.]

I deserved better? What's better? What the hell is your idea of better, Bruce?
