Work Text:
the brunette is sat on the kitchen floor, as he waits for the familiar ding from the air fryer, the smell of shitty dollar general chicken nuggets fills the small apartment.
He REALLY should've had a chair in the small room by now from the amount of time's he has found himself in this exact same situation and spot.
A familiar ding rings throughout the kitchen, not only signaling the end of his hunger, but the reminder of the fact he really needs to do the dishes... FUCK
The brunette stands before turning towards the sink and grabbing the least messy and easiest to clean plate he can find, before turning on the stream of water and grabbing a sponge.
___
Finally, he finishes drying off the blue lined white plate and opening the old air fryer, flinging the Dino nuggets onto his plate, while also getting brunt in the process (fucking dumbass).
The brunette opens the white nearly empty fridge, before grabbing the ranch and pouring a GLUTONESS (I don't know if I spelled that right somebody actually sedate me) amount of it into his plate.
As he snaps the cap of the ranch container shut, he practically throws it back into the beatup fridge.
A knocking sound is heard from the small living room window-wait, window????,
The sound of said window sliding open is then followed by A loud crash.
"Shit!."
Oh we are SO cooked dude. Dyl Quietly backs up into the counter, reaching for the knife block, because-even if the voice sounded slightly familiar- this is Gotham for fucks sake! he is NOT taking any chance's.
He quietly reaches the door way, slightly peaking his head through,
"Oh what the fuck."
He quickly relaxes, dropping his knife back into the counter as a injured and bleeding redhood, slumped against the side of his couch beside the wide open window looks his way.
"Uh... Hey..?." the clearly tired fucking NUISANCE,holds up his hand in a peace sign as Dyl drags his hands down his face, his expression a mix between worry and anger, or maybe annoyance? Probably all 3 to be honest, before turning towards the bathroom
"Wh-hey! Don't leave me here!," "I'm not leaving you, even though I would VERY MUCH like to, I'm getting the medkit."
With that, redhood let's out a slightly embarrassed, "Oh." before letting his head rest back against the couch.
A couple moments pass of redhood bleeding out on the floor against the couch, wondering if he forgot about him or, did in fact, leave him there, before the brunette returns with a wooden box full of medical looking stuff.
"Alright I got-why are you still on the floor??." and for a second, redhood looks offended, "wh-excuse me??? I'm INJURED and YOU'RE yelling at ME?? How rude, and here I thought we were friends!." "literally HOW am I yelling, and I didn't mean-" before the brunette could finish, he decides its not worth it to argue with a clearly delusional redhood and kneels down next to him,
"Alright, this is gonna sting-""yeah no shit it's a stab wound genius." dyl just looks at him for a moment, before dousing a washcloth in rubbing alcohol as he picks up the very ripped fabric of redhoods shirt, and shoving it right onto the wound.
"SON OF A BITCH-"
the next few moments consisted of cleaning around and on the wound, removing any debre, (however the fuck you spell it.) and redhood cursing every single person dyl has ever known, the brunette being slightly more gentle as to not piss off the neighbors, or make them think anything else, I am not elaborating.
____
As he finishes cleaning the wound, he begins grabbing and preparing the bandage, taking this moment to assess any other wounds redhood may have sustained along the rest of his body, seemingly finding nothing more than a couple scratches and bruises here and there.
As he begins to wrap the wound, he takes note of the fact that the vigilante seems to be over heating.
Blah blah blah Yap tap tap wound stuff and bandaging.
Dyl finishes bandaging the no longer bleeding, but clearly dehydrated and exhausted redhood. His hand finds the others shoulder, snapping the injured mess of a vigilante back to reality,
"Hey, Im done, do you.. Wanna take off the mask now?." as soon as the brunette said that, Jason seemed to remember that he had it on as he scrambled to tear it off.
This was the first time the brunette had really seen him THIS disheveled and roughed up, his hair was completely fucked up, most likely from the mask, he had eyebags almost as dark as his hair, and he was clearly exhausted and burning hot.
"How the hell do you wear that thing??, it's like 90 out there." he says as he gets up from his position on the floor, walking to the kitchen and grabbing a cold bottle of water out of the fridge, throwing it towards the other man, "trust me, if I knew, I would tell you." he says Scrambling to open the bottle of water, chugging it.
The brunette walks the short distance back over to him, and throwing the others arm over his shoulder,supporting his weight as he walks him over to his room and setting him on the bed, watching as he flops down on his stomach and letting out a tired, yet frustrated groan,
peaking a eye out to watch as dyl grabs some black oversized shorts, and a basic dark Navy blue t-shirt out of his drawer (or whatever the fuck you want I'm not good at men's clothing, I'M A 13 YEAR OLD LOSER LESBIAN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU PEOPLE WEAR SUE ME 💔)
Tossing the clothes practically ontop of Jason, "I don't really think i have much that'll fit you, but hopefully that's not too tight or anything," Jason grabs the clothing that was quite literally thrown ontop of him,
"uh, yeah, I think this will be alright, thanks." WHY THE FUCK DID YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT YOU LOSER ASS-"yeah no problem, uh come get me if youre done." the brunette turns around and walks out the bedroom door, shutting it behind him.
____
A couple of minutes pass as the brunette sits on the couch, eating the forgotten Dino nuggets with his GLUTTONOUS amount of ranch and a blanket thrown Lazily on his lap that is most likely gonna get stained with ranch, picking out some random Disney movie to watch, and Deciding on a movie to watch.
He doesn't notice the, now less deathly looking, jason sitting down next to him, judging his choice of film,
"are you seriously watchi-" "AH!" dyl let's out a (embarrassingly) high pitched scream as he gets jumpscared, before clearing his throat, ego slightly bruised.
"I uh... Didn't notice you there..." the brunette says, readjusting his blanket, pretending for just a moment longer that he isn't gonna get made fun of for the rest of his existence
"You scream like a little girl! HA! OW FUCK! laughing hurts now☹️" Jason says, leaning over and grabbing his barely healing stab wound,
Shortly followed by a laugh leaving the brunette, "LOSERRR," he says as he unpauses the movie, turning back towards the screen as real gone from the cars movie starts playing,
Jason immediately straightens back out, (didn't know he could do anything straight but you learn something new everyday ig.)
"As I was saying, are you SERIOUSLY watching cars at your big age," and to that, dyl looks offended,
"Wh-for your information! Cars is a FANTASTIC movie so fuck you!." Jason just watches him for a couple seconds, dyl immediately getting embarrassed, "j-just shut up..." ("I'm not a tsun! Tsun tsun tsundere!" okay I'm sorry please don't hurt me.) "yeah yeah, okay dyl pickle." After a couple minutes, the 2 both star to relax and just start watching the movie.
Suddenly the door opens, and a certain black haired, great ass having someone walks inside
The 2 heads then turn to look,
"I have to have at least 5 seconds of screen time." the ravenette says staring at his watch for a couple of seconds, before doing a backflip and cartwheeling out with the door closing behind him.
___
Around 20-30 minutes in, the brunette's eyes start to feel heavy as the regret of only sleeping 4-5 hours last night starts to kick in,
without noticing, his head starts leaning right, and before long, he's out cold with his head laying ontop of the shoulder who he was just yelling at 20 minutes ago.
A arm instinctively wraps around his shoulder, pulling the brunette closer, and before long, the 2 fall asleep together and uh yeah happy ending yay yay yay I'm finally free🥹
