[ jason might not have noticed the shifting shadows if he hadn’t been waiting for something to happen. that was definitely left out of the report, and he recognizes shit he doesn’t want to fuck with when he sees it. magic is still a little bit of a sore spot to him, although that might be a lingering echo of bruce’s dislike for it.
he kicks one of the thugs neatly into the growing shadows and uses him as a springboard, firing off a line to pull himself up to the fire escape before the ground is entirely swallowed up. he crouches there, watching, while the thugs figure out that something’s wrong and start yelling in fear. jason isn’t about to offer an escape to any of these assholes, but he does want to see what the new kid has in mind. magic-users are unpredictable. ]
