#remember that

Jason loves theatrics, he's waking Bruce up in the middle of the night covered in fake blood, staring at him, whispering 'kill him, kill him, kill him'. Jason breaks into Bruce's study when he's alone to cut smile scars on Bruce's face. He notices Bruce's mental health is getting worse and thinks he's just succeeding on scaring him. But he's also so angry that Bruce now 'knows' he's alive and hasn't tried to reach out to him or apologize (tbf Bruce has only seen him when he's haunting him)

And Bruce is convinced he's entering into some sort of episode because did he make those scars himself? why is there fake blood on the carpet?? did I put that there??? He considered it could be a fake but that is Jason's face, he could never forget his son's face

Jason tries haunting Bruce at the manor one night only to see he's missing and after poking around he finds out Bruce checked himself into a mental hospital for hallucinations and self harm and he just goes ".....oops" then tracks Bruce down to tell him he's real and alive again, and going to kill him. Which goes about as well as you would expect it to

you can be friends & hold hands

you can be friends & engage in physical intimacy (eg. cuddling)

you can be friends & engage in kink &/or sex acts (if you like)

you do not have to be romantically involved with a person to experience emotional bonds & engage in physical intimacy of any form. you can just BE FRIENDS. touch is not inherently romantic or sexual until you & the other party(ies) communicate that. every touch can be purely platonic.
