[The second he's pushing himself up off the bed she does the same, reaching out and catching his wrist in her hand.]
Jason, stop. Please.
[Her tone is firm but kind.]
You don't just cause pain and there is plenty good about you and my proof is what happened about ten seconds ago on that bed. Do you know how long it's been since I really laughed Jason? How long it's been since my cheeks hurt from smiling so much? Months. Since before I left Gotham.
And if you want further proof that you've got good in you then just go look at that massive bruise on your back. You did some good tonight with both your actions and just....by being you.
