Jason Confusion Award [Comprehensive British and American]

"Bruce, I really regret it." Suddenly, Jason said.

What does he regret?

He regretted that he was too proud, thinking that he could guard his heart.He regretted that he was too arrogant and thought he could not be emotional.He also regretted that he knew everything, but still fantasized about a different ending...

If the current him went back to the past, he would definitely not choose to leave with Bruce.The price of that nod was too high for Jason.

Jason Todd, who clearly wanted to be free and independent from the beginning, was moved by the promise of "one family" instead?

Jason's words came without beginning or end, and Bruce looked at the other person, feeling that he seemed to understand the other person's meaning, but it seemed that he didn't understand anything.

Jason naturally also saw Bruce's doubts. At this moment, he has a sharp weapon that can stab Batman: language.

He knew how to tell Batman pain, in fact, he just needed to tell the truth, but Jason didn't choose to do that.

Of course, he can fight Batman for some things, but it is unnecessary to use this method.

"Bruce, you once said you would give me a home." Thinking of the past, Jason couldn't help but calm down a little.Maybe they have different ways of doing things now, and have all kinds of differences and incomprehensions, but the happiness in the past is also real. "Actually, you did."

Even if there were all kinds of problems and contradictions in this family, even if there was arrogance and prejudice in this family, Bruce at that time did indeed give Jason a home that he could not get by his own ability at that time.

In Wayne Manor, Jason grew from weak to strong step by step.With the help of Batman, he walked very steadily step by step.

It is undeniable that Bruce sheltered him at that time.Although it is said that he would not be unable to live without Bruce, at least he definitely did not live as well as that time.

Jason never concealed the unhappy things he had there, and likewise, he would not deny the help given there.

If Jason is a diamond in the rough, then Bruce is the one who discovered him while he was still encased in stone.

It's just a pity that Bruce was absent during the later very important "carving" process.

During Bruce's absence, the people who had the biggest influence on the amnesiac Jason were Slade and Lei Xiaogu.

If Jason hadn't retrieved his memory in time, it would have been a few years.It is not certain which of these people has the greatest influence on him.

"I am very grateful to you for teaching and protecting me when I was weak."

Jason's words made Bruce feel a little uneasy, because the other party's words sounded as if they were trying to draw a line with him.

"But—" Jason paused for a second, "maybe that's wrong."

Jason took a deep breath, "You met the wrong me at the wrong time, at the wrong place."

Jason blamed himself for all the mistakes, telling Bruce "you met the wrong me" instead of "I met the wrong you."

Seeing that Bruce seemed to be about to say something, Jason spoke first and interrupted what he hadn't said yet, "Actually, what you see is me who has undergone a 'big change' after being resurrected from the dead, because I've always been like that."

Jason took a few steps towards Bruce, "I have always had all the thoughts I have now. It's just that you didn't find out at that time, and I didn't have time to tell you."

"All of them never came out of nowhere, and they didn't come after I was resurrected." Jason said, "They've always existed, they've always been there."

"So?" Bruce asked, "What are you trying to say?"

True, Jason hadn't told Bruce this in the past, but it's impossible to say Bruce didn't find out at all.There are very few things in this world that can be hidden from Batman's eyes.

"I want to say that I may have been a huge mistake to you." As you were to me, "Maybe it's time for this mistake to end."

"Jason, you want to sever ties with me?" Even someone as calm as Bruce couldn't accept this calmly.

"In fact, the relationship between us may have been severed long ago." Jason said with a bit of sarcasm, "Jason Todd has long been a dead person in your eyes, isn't he?"

It might not be a good thing for everyone that he came back alive and reappeared in front of Bruce.

Maybe if he hadn't been resurrected, it would always be the "justice" Jason Todd who stayed in Bruce's heart.With the glorification of death, maybe he could even become their near-perfect Jason Todd.

But all these possibilities dissipated with the return of the resurrected self.

Seriously, Jason doesn't even know what they are now.

He was fed up with this ambiguity, this obsession, enough of this "understanding," and if their relationship couldn't be defined, then why not just end it.

Anyway, they couldn't accept themselves as murderers, and Jason would no longer abide by the principle of not killing.

That being the case, why bother with it any longer.

Even if the relationship between them cannot be cut off, at least he can cut off the relationship between them, even in name.

After Bruce lost himself, there were Alfred, Dick, Tim, and Damian, and after losing Bruce, he also had Alice and Myrico.

If it was already destined that they would not be able to become the most colorful stroke in each other's life, then why not take back that touch of color before the ink marks disappear completely.

With his eyes fixed on Jason and his ears listening to the words that came out of Jason's mouth, the Bruce couldn't help but feel a little at a loss.

Since Jason came back to life and recovered his memory, every time they met, even if it was a dispute or confrontation, Bruce could see from Jason's eyes that the other party cared about him.

Because he cared, Jason's emotions were mostly intense.

Although the concern in Jason's eyes didn't completely disappear because of his words, it did fade a lot.

It was as if something had changed without Bruce noticing.

But what is it? !

That thing may be called the heart.

Jason's heart is already tired of this endless family and principle issues, or rather than dealing with the constant cutting and messy family issues, now there are more important issues in front of him.

He said these words to Bruce, and a large part of the reason was that he didn't want Bruce to be involved.

If I broke off the relationship with Bruce, if I seemed to give up on Bruce, then maybe the "choice question" facing Talon would no longer appear.Jason didn't believe that it was a coincidence, and the words of Gu Yi brought by Bruce were good evidence.

In fact, this kind of "multiple choice question" will not only make Jason feel awkward, but also make Bruce suffer.

A long time ago, Jason's greatest fear was that he would live like his biological father.But now, what he is most afraid of is that someone will be implicated by him, he is afraid that someone will be hurt because of him.

And the last thing he wanted, that "someone" was named Bruce Wayne.
