[ He fit the bat-mold well in the fact he didn't like to talk to nearly any one about his feelings. Namely when he had a stinging pain. He already had buckets of abandonment issues, thanks to his parents and Bruce. When he had returned from dropping Damian off to be sent back he hadn't spoken to anyone.

The song dying had Jason spinning around to see what happened to the cd, forgetting about the ball a second as it whizzed past his head, missing him by an inch or so, by the time Wally's cleared his throat and spoke. His blue eyes look tired and irate at once. He didn't answer at first. Wanting to ask for a case of beer, but he bottle was enough, namely with Roy living there. He had to be responsible for both Roy and Jon's sake. ]

Whatever, it's fine. Uhh, not really, nothing comes to mind, unless yeah, Jon's going to need some things for lunch. I was going to go later.

[ By later he means yesterday... ]

Shit, what time is it Walls? [ He'd taken to the new nickname for Wally since moving, which was actually a good thing, nicknames usually came for those he considered important.]

[otherflash]

[ Wally isn't fazed by the anger in Jason's eyes, but the tiredness behind them has him more than a little concerned. A lack of sleep leads to mistakes, and that's something they can't afford in their line of work. But he gets the feeling now isn't really the time for him to be giving that lecture.

The nickname and the way Jason asks him about the time has Wally's lips quirking up into a wry smile despite himself. ]

Having so much fun you lost track of time, huh. We still have an hour or so before dinner. Though some of us were starting to wonder if you were going to join us.

[ He picks up a short stack of CD cases lying on a nearby desk and begins to casually flip through them in an attempt to semi-distract himself from the conversation. Bats might not be good when it comes to talking about feelings, but they can read people pretty well, and he doesn't want the other man to know he's worried even if it's kinda obvious. ]

And don't worry about Jon's lunch. I can pick up a few things while I'm out. I think it's my turn to do the grocery shopping anyway.

[ It isn't, actually. But Wally doesn't mind picking up some of the slack like any good friend would do while Jason works through everything going on in his life. Losing family, no matter how it comes about, is never an easy thing to deal with as Wally knows all too well. ]

[ He needed to sleep but when he let himself get emotionally compromised he did dumb things. Like staying up for a few days. He'd probably fall asleep not long after diner was done. its happened before.

Wally was part of the family now, there was no escaping.]

Something like that, man, something like that. I havent decided yet if I want to but given its just a few of us we could probably get away with pizza again.

[ Most of the cd's were the cliche angry boy alt rock. The early 2000's verity. The stuff he liked before he died. Luckily flipping through the cd's does distract Jason from reading him.] My phone has more music but I wanted the hands on tonight. But yeah, give me a second, I'll write out the list. You can use the car if you want, I don't car.

[ He admitted, as he moved over to grab a pad of paper and started jotting down what was needed, his penmen ship was really nice all things considered. That came from Alfred helping him.]

[otherflash]

I'm certainly not going to complain about pizza. I'll go ahead and grab it while I'm out too.

[ While Wally has heard of a few of the bands and songs in the stack of cds he's flipping through, the majority of them are unfamiliar to him. Growing up in a house with his Aunt Iris meant he was forced to listen to the music she favored which was 90s bands such as Gin Blossoms and the Goo Goo Dolls among others. He would never admit it to her, but the stuff she listened to wasn't complete crap.

He casually nods along as Jason talks about his music until the mention of him taking the car has him looking up from the cds with another wry smile on his face. ]

You want me to take the car? [ He tilts his head, as if he's considering it. ] What a novel idea. I just hope I remember how to drive.

[ There's nothing to fear as he's only joking. Mostly. It has been awhile since he had to drive because, well, speedster. ]

[hititwithacrowbar]

I owe you one.

[ Part of him wanted to ask for a drink, but god knows he didn't have a reason to run out at 3am he might crawl out of his skin. He hated when he got depressed. There was nothing to channel it into here, besides work, and with Bucky sick that didn't even sound fun.]

Well, it was an idea, you don't have to. You can probably run circles around it. Either way.

[ he tossed the mustang's keys Wally's way with a tired looking salute which was a bit extra as he walked over and held out the list.]
