[There's a roll of turmoil inside. Dick has no idea where this is going to leave them, but he's going to hold onto Jason right now. There's no world where he'd ever let go when Jason needed him. His own breathing is coming back to him in the wake of being needed. It's natural-- others over himself, especially Jason. That's why his event had been so traumatic.

He wraps himself around Jason now, cradling him softly. Every motion soft and gentle, the strokes along his arms are smooth and careful. His voice is almost a lullabye in its caution. Dick keeps his face near, and lets Jason cling to the scent, the touch, all the emperical evidence that's needed for him to touch base with the reality that is, and not the one that's trying to take over. ]

You're here with me baby. I'm here, and I'll never repeat that again. I'm so sorry. I should have thought. It's all my fault. I'm thoughtless, careless, and I'm sorry. I'm so thoughtless. I needed you to know what I did, but I could have done it differently. I had to let you know before you tied yourself to me though. You had to know everything, but I love you, shhhh, you're here. I love you... always.

[Doing something he rarely ever does Dick begins to sing. It's a well known song, and he doesn't sing all of it, but his voice is pure and sweet. It's not a thing he shares often, but he wants to bring Jason all the way back to him-- and this is how he feels so completely. His heart is there, bleeding freely on his sleeve for the one person that will always offer every part to.]
