( 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. )
