If you need to hear me say it, then I forgive you. You didn't do those things that you saw in the pit. You don't have to feel guilty over it.

[There were other things, far more real that Jason had been angry at Dick over, but he doesn't want to go back there again. They're at a good place now, and the pain of the past is something he's working through. The present, and how Dick is with him now, that's what matters in the here and now.]

I try not to think about it. I try to keep my head here. With you.

[Maybe repression is not a good way to deal with things, and that's why Jason can get set off like this, so intensely, but- it is what it is.]

I don't hold it against you. What happened in the pit, it was probably like a dream. A really bad dream.

[Though now Jason wonders again why he didn't see anything. Where did he actually go? It's not something he wants to get caught up in now either. He tightens his hold on Dick's hand, his other dragging through his hair.]

I do wanna do it. I wanna feel something else, I wanna be with you.
