"Jason!" Tim snapped as his cheeks burned, unsure if he was more annoyed by the pink piss comment or that he'd drop things on Dick so casually like he'd have let any person off the street sniff around Tim. Not that he was against the idea of going on a date with Dick, just that he at the very least hoped Jason wanted him to be selective on who he said yes to.
When the arm around him retreated, he set down his hot chocolate and eased himself up from the couch. There was almost an electricity to the ice blue of his eyes as they gazed up at Dick, and he approached slowly like one might a wounded bird. "I've had feelings for you ever since I was just a little kid. I wouldn't abandon Jason for anyone, but maybe you could... share?" His long, dark eyelashes fluttered at the thought. This was absolutely not a time to dwell on what a turn on the idea was, even if he was technically still just a horny teenager.
There were already plans forming in his head. Tim was ever the strategist, and it wouldn't be hard to make the whole thing work if he played his cards right. Jason absolutely used to have a crush on Dick, might even still--who didn't, after all? If he could ease the two of them together the right way, they might be able to genuinely fall for each other. Which would end the stupid fights (though probably not the bickering, that was never going to end) and Tim could have two people he deeply cared for, that also cared for him, and he each other. The three of them understood each other in a way no one else could. It made sense.
He stopped in front of Dick and held out a hand to him. "I won't be angry if you don't want to, but... would it really hurt to try?"
