Technically, he probably shouldn't budge, but it's funnier if he gets flung off the bench because Cloud is super soldier'd. There he go! He doesn't roll into the bay, at least. He just kind of stumbles down onto the ground before catching himself.
UNFORTUNATELY, he's rowdy and loves horseplay, so he immediately makes an attempt to shoulder tackle Cloud at the legs and waist to try to get Cloud over his shoulders like a sack of potatoes.]
[ cloud's reflex when he sees jason try to attempt that is to kick? but he does not actually want to kick jason and break his nose. so he kind of freezes for a split second like he's deciding aaaaand there he goes it's too late he is a sack of potatoes yelping and resisting all reflexes to, again, just kick out of the hold
so instead he wiggles ]
Jay! What the hell! [ they are in sync so jay gets both the slight discomfort, the general ???!!! of not knowing what to do, and also a kind of vague deja vu like someone carried him like this before but he can't pinpoint who or why. but the most important part is the mild outrage ] Put me down.
[(jason voice) cloud is thinking about another boyfriend
He keeps Cloud pinned in place by the back of the legs so Cloud won't slide to the ground. His other hand rests on Cloud's ass on purpose because he's a dickweed. He pats it even.]
You're a lot heavier than you look, tough stuff. Want to take a dip in the nasty ol' Gotham bay? Get the full experience?
[He turns toward the bay, but doesn't move for it yet.]
[ he kind of is thinking of another boyfriend, don't tell him.
there's SUCH indignation in the noise he makes when jason pats his ass. never mind maybe he does want to break his nose a LITTLE ]
Try to throw me in the bay and you're not coming out of this portrait alive. [ he says that AND jabs jason in the ribs with his elbow. let go!!! the sync outs that this is not a real threat (shocker) ]
[DON'T BREAK HIS NOSE. His handsome face... 🥺🥺 He does kind of jerk a bit when he's jabbed, and he says "ow!" even if it didn't hurt enough to warrant an ow.]
Those are some mighty big words for a dude who I've got thrown over my shoulder.
[He should really jump into the bay with Cloud, honestly, but he will be nice. They have to get on his bike, and he doesn't want nasty bay water on it. So he turns around, steps up on the bench then down off the bench, and starts climbing the slope back up to the gates and the bike.
[ he really could be fighting harder but he's still debating the amount of damage he is okay doing. like! on the one hand, they're going away from the water, which is good. on the other hand jason is not letting him go and he really hates him ]
Put me down already! [ he is kicking out now. he absolutely is ]
[He's almost at the top of the hill, but he slips a little in the grass and rocks when Cloud starts swinging legs. He pins Cloud's legs more with his beefy arm. Stop kicky! No kicky!]
You want me to put you down on the fucking hill, Cloud? He--y! Cut it out! Just wait a damn minute!
It's a hill. [ he can walk on a hill???? but he does stop kicking when Jason holds on with his stupid meat. he hates this. I need you to know this is now a cartoon pose because he's got his arms crossed as he glares out into the distant while he is being carried like this ]
You might slide down it and right into the bay like a slipper blonde fish. I'd get to tell Lup I caught one.
[LMAO, CLOUD. This is so funny. They go up the hill with Cloud pouting, and Jason holding onto the backs of his legs. The LEAST Cloud could do is look at Jason's nice ass, sheesh.
Once he up at the top and on the pavement again, he rolls his shoulder and uses his hands to pull Cloud off, plopping Cloud back on two feet. He's grinning about it, though. Hehe.]
[ cloud 0% appreciated jason's ass because he was too busy going >:( thinking that jason was being an ass, thanks ]
I wasn't going to slide down the hill.
[ it's what he says when jason plops him down, shaking his head a little because he was kind of upside down and all the blood went there. thanks. that sucks.
Hey. I was looking out for your safety. Making sure you didn't.
[What the HECK, no kicky.] Don't kick me, brat. Are you pouting? [He will tease the shit out of Cloud for the kicking. He leans in to smooch the corner of Cloud's mouth.]
[ he's not appeased by smooches!! he is still indignant!!! ignore the slight fluster!!!! ]
I'm older than you. And I don't pout. [ the kick was warranted? the brat comment was not. wow. but despite the sulking he looks at the motorcycle and shrugs a shoulder which is as good as a yes ]
[He just snorts when Cloud mentions being older.] By one year. [Also:] You do pout. Want to know how I know? Because when you do it, it's cute. [:) This is what Cloud gets for being fussy. Bullying.
He tugs Cloud a bit, walking back over to the bike. His turn to wow Cloud with riding. He straddles it so Cloud has room to get on.]
[ it's grumbled because he is aware this is a lost cause argument and he is being bullied intensely right now. there's a moment of hesitation before cloud sits behind jason on the bike, wrapping his arms around his dumb dorito waist. he was hesitating because this feels like cuddling which is strictly a reward jason doesn't deserve thanks ]
[He does not say, "Cute," to be bratty, but the energy is there. He pushes the kickstand up once Cloud is on and holds the bike upright between his thighs while he thinks.
... I don't know. [ jason's gotham talks have never been that positive, so. he tightens his hold without realizing as he thinks ] Your favorite places in the city, I guess.
[He uses his feet to roll the bike back so he can turn it mostly around.] Hold on, blondie. [He slides his thumb over the ignition on the handlebar and then pushes it to crank it.
Cloud's favorite! The purring to life motorcycle. Jason, like Cloud, also takes off very fast, but not very furious. Back down the pavement to the road! No forcing more mansions onto poor Cloud.]
[ he thinks jason needs to know that. his hold on jason is pretty tight, but it's clearly not out of fear considering he's looking around as the scenery passes. it is cloud's favorite and while the sync will tell jason he enjoys himself a lot more as driver than passenger he's enjoying himself in this one too ]
[Cloud and Jason both fighting over the driver's seat on a motorcycle because they have the most fun. Hate it.
He takes Cloud back into Gotham since there isn't too much on the outside except for stupid Wayne Manor. A lot of Jason's favorite places are surprisingly, embarrassingly soft for a dude who spends a lot of time shooting and being shady. But maybe that's why?
Cloud can see a family run restaurant that makes the best soul food, a piece of the giant park (does he ride the bike inside of it and on the grass? yes), a long tunnel that has glowing tags of graffiti as they putt through. He will show Cloud his shitty middle school since they talked about schools.]
[ they need to be a motorcycle couple. they are all on their own motorcycle and hold hands at stop light or whatever
for now cloud's observing everything. it's hard to hide the kind of fondness (and a little amusement) at the things he's showing him because they're embarrassingly soft. jason acts so tough and for what*
*cloud is the same way
he doesn't know schools much but they're so in sync by then he recognizes it on sight, which is a little weird, but whatever. ]
Also stop. Don't make fun of him for the damn not edgy or bad boy things he's showing off. Listen here. The next place they're going is by the Gotham Public Library.
The school isn't dilapidated or anything, but it isn't the best looking one. The typical dingy, but sufficient public school in the middle of a city. One of them anyway.] That was it. [He looks at it in the same sort of distant way he will look at the island later.]
[ he is immediately gonna call him a nerd when they get to the library, you realize ]
Every one of them? [ cloud doesn't sound surprised or judgmental because it's a mood, but still. ] Pretty impressive. There had to be at least forty kids in there.
[ he's clearly lowballing it by a ridiculous amount as a joke about being from a podunk town. ]
[He's exaggerating. But they both are, so it's fine. Cloud probably didn't hate every single kid either. Still very much a mood.
He straightens up to stretch his back without knocking Cloud's arms away. His head shakes.]
Stopped going in eighth grade. So I was about, I dunno. Thirteen maybe. B had too much money, so he could hire a fancy tutor. They were all old and wrinkly and boring. I wanted nothing more than those movie fantasies where the teenage boy got the really smoking hot teacher. But you win some, you lose some.

[He's really about to get pushed off the bench and straight into the bay probably. HELP.]
You mean Shinra hasn't snatched that and tried to coin it into a franchise? I'm shocked, honestly.
[PLEASE, NOT THE FANTASY DOMINOES. Jason would lose it. Midgar is one big pizza franchise now.]
