Jon gets a stealthy flower crown on the head. He pretty much stalked Jon through the Super & Co. house, then waited on the overhang of roof across the steps when Jon is ready to exit. He can drop it from above this way.
But he disappears back immediately where Jon can't see him, except Jon has great hearing, and it's easy to tell Damian's measured feet and steady breathing. The drop aim was too good also. It has to be Damian.]
( the flower crown easily settles atop soft strands of hair and jon does turn his head back in the direction he's sure damian's skittering off in, but he doesn't--follow after him. no, retaliation comes a few hours later, waiting outside the exit to damian's boathouse with a flower crown in hair made with numerous different colors--as many as jon could find around chroma along with several different colored berries to try and fill in the colors he couldn't find on flowers.
his upper half hangs off the edge as he waits, crown held carefully between fingers, just waiting for the moment damian goes to escape. . with the one damian bestowed on him still resting on his hair. )
Honestly, Damian should have expected this when there was no retaliation immediately following his stealthy crowning. But he assumes Jon does know or Jon forgets? His had been a half joke—not in giving but in crafting. Red and blue and a little yellow. Super colors.
He’a not ready for the weight that crests the top of his head when he comes out, and he starts. He knows so quickly what it is, and he jerks around to look up. He’s received a few, but none this sneakily. He’s surprised to find Jon staring back at him.] You.
( catching damian wayne off guard is a real accomplishment indeed. as soon as his hands are empty and he's gotten his attention, jon's raising his hands up to his mouth, covering the giggles threatening to escape. )
It's revenge. Flower crown revenge.
( probably the only kind of revenge jon will ever be into tbh. )
[The heck--DON'T LAUGH! Jon gets the grumpiest glare, even if it's not one in complete seriousness.]
I don't know what you're talking about. [Thank God he has the best poker face.] Flower crowns go to someone worthy. As if I would really give someone like you a flower crown...
[Speaking of, he takes his off so he can inspect it. GOD. There's so much stuff on here, and none of it has any rhyme or reason. Figures.]
Definitely not that one with those colors. Black and yellow or red, yellow, and green are the only colors appropriate for flower crowns.
( yeah, all that sounds great and all but he definitely heard damian walking away from him after dropping that flower crown so clearly it was him, there's nothing to gain from damian trying to deny it. )
But the one on my head has my colors. I tried to get as many colors on yours as I could find. Which I mean, I'm pretty sure you're worthy of.
( also it's slightly edible. so you know. that's pretty cool. enjoy those berries damian wayne. )
Tt. [Okay, so the crown is............ cute, he guesses. It's been padded with an over-abundant amount of stuff, lacks planning and strategy, but it's is pretty fitting for Jon, he thinks. No outline or design, but made with a bunch of love.
Thanks, he hates it.
Which is why he lifts it back up and puts it on his head. One of the berries on the bunch hanging in his face gets plucked off. He doesn't eat it yet; instead, he peers up at Jon again.]
If anyone is worthy of this grotesque conglomerate of colors, it's you, Jon.
( why do you gotta be so rude, damian. gosh, he was only trying to give him something nice. the smile fades into a half-pout, but he's not leaving so that's. a good sign he's not too too upset. he knows to ignore ninety percent of the words that come out of damian's mouth, focus on his actions instead. and he hasn't thrown off the flower crown, even if he's calling it gross and stuff. )
I dunno, I think you need a little more color in your life. Considering you work in the dark and all.
[The rudeness is only a back-assward way of complimenting Jon. Naturally. If it goes unnoticed, all the better for him because it just means he won't get called out on his bullshit! (Like caring.)]
Hilarious.
The point of working in the dark is not to be seen, you know. It's easy for you to work in visible, gaudy colors. [A bit of a smirk here. He likes yanking Jon's chain.] You can defy most laws of maiming and death.
If the point of working in the dark is to not be seen then why do you wear that bright yellow-black cape?
( like who can miss that thing floating around the top of buildings? jon definitely can't. he can't imagine the villains and stuff do, either. but he generally sees damian out on the streets when they're hanging together, and. well. jon doesn't hide well. doesn't really try though. )
Because the black on the outside helps conceal me in the shadows when I need it. [Really, it's probably a homage kind of thing--the yellow, at least--but it's fun teasing Jon.]
The yellow is reflective and lets the bad guys know I'm about to kick their ass when I land on top of them.

( see damian is giving practical reasons but robin has been around much longer than damian has. and he doubts those were the Reasons way back when. )
