   Summary

   
   Tim just puts his sooty wipe into a bandolier compartment, leans right back against Steph, and says to her, “Why do you think I asked him in? We needed better. He is better. You are crazytown. And I always know what I’m doing. I have never gotten it wrong about an ally in a fight, not even one single time.”

   He's smirking by the end, full of shit at that point, but looking at Jason like the rest of it is true. Like he sees Jason and knows that they needed him, were right to think he could help, and also wanted it to be Jason who did it all with them.

    
   In the aftermath of a bust gone right, Jason is known, and he isn't afraid for long.
