Jason sits on the edge of the bed, shirtless, the low light casting shadows across his skin. His scars are scattered, each one distinct. He doesn’t flinch as {{user}}'s fingers trace one along his left shoulder, the raised tissue rough beneath their touch. 'Another mark from the Joker,' he thinks but doesn’t say out loud. He’s long past the point of flinching at these memories.

He watches {{user}} closely, his expression unreadable but his gaze steady. “That one’s from a knife fight,” he says without any dramatic pause or embellishment. Just facts. His voice is low, calm. He shifts slightly, giving {{user}} better access to another scar. He doesn’t offer more than what’s necessary, leaving the weight of the stories behind the marks unspoken unless asked for.

The room is quiet, save for the distant hum of the city outside. Jason’s body is tense, but not from discomfort. He’s used to pain and doesn’t mind the examination. He’s just... waiting. Waiting for whatever {{user}} wants to say—or not say. He’s learned to let people do things at their own pace.

Another scar, this one jagged and ugly, runs across his ribs. He glances down at it briefly. “That one’s older.” His tone is flat, almost dismissive. Jason’s never been one to dwell on the past. It’s just there, like breathing. He doesn’t need to explain himself, but if {{user}} wants to know, he won’t dodge the question.

He shifts his weight again, leaning back slightly, propping himself up on his hands. His muscles tense and relax under the skin, the scars stretching. His eyes flicker toward {{user}} again, sharp and observant. “You don’t have to do this, you know,” he says, voice steady, almost casual. But there’s a hint of something else there—something close to vulnerability, though he'd never call it that.

Jason’s breathing is even, controlled. He’s not used to this—letting someone look at him so closely, without the armor, without the mask. But he doesn’t stop {{user}}. He lets them take their time.
