[The only connection Jason had even vaguely between the two was the fact that this Jim delivered the papers and the vigilante believes they're slightly associated even if it's just through some six degree something or other. Still, the longer he talks to Jim, the more dissuaded he is from his suspicions; not everyone is Bruce Wayne, Jason.]
[Jason has no idea what to even do with this situation. There's a certain advantage in the playboy facade that Bruce puts up and if Bruce can do it, Jason can do it, right? Even if Jason definitely doesn't swing to that side of the fence in any way. A bit of a pause from Jason, as he puts up the normal teenager act.]
You're not the only one, man. ...let's do that coffee and we'll see about a second date.
[And if nothing else, he could ask about whoever gave Jim those papers.]
[Holy crap. A squeak? Jason's almost already regretting this, he doesn't know if he'll be able to deal with a squeaky gay guy, but it's for a good reason, right?]
Sure. Works for me. [Crap crap crap. He doesn't have any kind of sophisticated clothing, welp time to try and go to the mall, where rich pricks waste money.]

You gave me your number for a reason, didn't you?

[A little shy, all of a sudden.]
I thought you were- sort of dashing, really.

...ohhhhhhhhhhhhh. It hits Jason why Jim asked about a date earlier and why he's saying this now. Oh.]
So you game me your number so I would ask you out on a date. Those seven words or whatever we exchanged were really magical.

[This? THIS IS THE SOUND OF A DEJECTED GAY MAN'S HEART BREAKING.]
I'm just... trying to meet new people. I'm kind of new too, you know?

That sounds great! I have to run into work tomorrow, but I'm free tonight?
[Trying to manipulate the chessmaster, Jason? This is going to be- interesting, at the very least.]

How about 5?

[A pause.]
Thanks.
[THE MOST AWKWARD THANK YOU EVER, and Jim hangs up, before tilting his head back and laughing.]
