( that he's here. that even if he truly wanted to replace bruce, he's incapable of it. damian's relationship with his father is different, because of what they've been through together. there is no replicating it. if his father were to forget everything (again) and they needed to restart, it wouldn't be the same either.
damian drops his hand back down onto the counter. keeps his eyes focused on bruce's. )
I'm one of several who have been Robin. One of two who currently carry the name. The other is also here. We wear similar regalia and answer to the same name. Despite how often I have considered eradicating him from the playing field, the other Robin is my brother. My family. ( a warning as much as it is a statement. he won't introduce tim to bruce, nor will he mention jason. they all have complex relationships with batman, damian is not one to overinform nor go into it. but given the combination of different universes, he feels ensuring bruce knows the other robin is already accounted for is important. )
And I'm still Robin, the blood son of Batman. I will need to--recalibrate some, but I'll be here, to watch your back. To remind you of who you are.

still, he watches as damian's hand drops down. looks to himself in the mirror. then pulls back some, reaching for a hand towel to pat his face dry with. )
You should stay here. ( not the apartments, he means. ) It's your home. Also has more than enough space for your friend.
( goliath. )

I'll stay where I want regardless of your opinion on the matter.
( he hasn't settled in yet, but his room in the manor still exists. his cot is still there. damian doesn't have intentions of moving elsewhere. )
You're not alone. Don't forget that.
no subject
quiet, he stares to him. tries to digest the thought of not being alone here when he very much is. it's not as if alfred's here after all. though he gets what it is damian's trying to tell him. )
I'm sure you'll remind me if I do.
no subject
they're both going to need time. to adjust, to recalibrate as damian put it earlier. there's a lot at stake, and he doesn't - damian knows his way of handling others is different, that it took time after he'd first shown up. damian turned his back on everything he had known, rejected his mother's hand, to follow in bruce's footsteps, and yet he had still doubted damian's intentions.
he's older now. knows himself better. knows bruce better. damian will figure it out. for now, he'll just - give them both a little space. )
