    Summary

    "He is, in fact, not fine. When Red Robin gets hurt, he breathes through the pain. Tightly controlled inhales, carefully measured exhales. Jason watched Tim take those same cautious, calculated breaths in the Tower all those years ago. He’s a tough kid, and though he would never admit it out loud, Tim was tougher than Jason was at his age. When the second Robin called out for Bruce, sobbing under the downward swing of a crowbar, the third bird was holding his own against the Red Hood, fighting back and breathing steadily all the while. So when Tim says “fine” after drawing in an unwavering lungful of air, Jason knows he’s lying through his goddamn Bristol-perfect teeth."

    Red Robin is trapped, under a collapsed building, under the effects of cuddle pollen, under the Joker's thumb. Jason has to listen.
