So I can make some basic sketches and shit and do a description but I'm looking for something very specific and I'd need to be allowed to ask for as many changes as possible so it comes out right.
My husband didn't get brought here with me. I want something to look at when I miss him.

That's a lot of work. For something that requires many changes, I may have to charge an extra fee.
Well apparently I've got this limitless credit card for the next two months so charge away
Okay.
Send me whatever references you've got. And I'm assuming you want a print, fully coloured?

then a print, fully colored. something I can have in two sizes: one wallet, one photo frame for my wall
give me an hour and I'll send some stuff over

[A little over an hour later, he sends some okay sketches along with a terribly lengthy and flowery description that boils down to 'Super aloof and arrogant, high cheekbones, straight nose, pointed ears, long straight hair that looks like he was born in a shampoo commercial, and lots of ice and 'frozen north' motifs but in a tits out way'
----
Eventually sometime in the next few weeks: the picture when done, after much hassle and a lot of nitpicking to get things just right (no, more arrogant, like the viewer is a worm and should be so ashamed of daring to show themselves in his presence that they should be willing to kill themselves for the audacity) should come out something like this.]

[ it's a good thing he has a lot of experience drawing real people, otherwise this may have been a tricky assignment. as it is with his work, kyle commits himself to it before delivering the result. ]
All good?
All good?
[Once he has the final result, he's very misty eyed because look! It's his husband! His literal fantasy come to life! Who he may never see again...]
It's good. Hey. I know I'm paying you excessively well for this - and you deserve every dollar and then some don't doubt that - but uh... if you ever need a favor of any kind? Give me a buzz okay?
Like, it doesn't matter what it is you want. You want me to mail you a case of soda that's only sold in one country, I'll mail you a soda. You want me to bury a body, it's buried. No questions asked. I'll do it.
Nothing short of having my husband show up here is going to be enough thanks for this.

[ aww. honestly, the words are enough. ]
You're welcome. I know a little of what it's like to miss someone.

Oh. Right. Please don't share this as an example to anyone. It's very personal. But if you're looking for more commissions, I'll rec you on my channels.
No worries. It stays between us. I have plenty from my own portfolio.
[Sent to his hotel room Kyle will find a wrapped package of high quality artist's pencils and a sketchbook. Along with a note.]
My friends back in art school said you can never have enough of these.

matches was
a shame, i loved that one
( stealing dick's middle name felt better.
he was already close by, so it's only a few moments longer before jason's shoving open the window to kyle's apartment and letting himself in, geared up with his nice red hood. )

[ matches malone sounds vaguely familiar. maybe kyle should have paid more attention to aliases back when he was in the justice league. at any rate, it's a moot point.
at least, having the ring means he's quickly suited up, mask on, even if he's barely hiding a yawn. kyle keeps odd hours in general, thanks to space and comic book deadlines. ]
So is the John official now?

For now.
( he'll need a new phone later. a few side burners. attach an id to each phone for various purposes, make sure they're untraceable. leave some actually traceable, because the inability to track it down would be suspicious on his own. he's got plans.
unfortunately he's more broke than kyle because jason refuses to take advantage of the gifted credit card, or the hotel rooms, or anything aside from the phone that'd been dropped onto his lap. and only because he needed that.
once he gets back up onto his feet and shuts (locks too) the window behind him, jason's taking the time to make his way around kyle's apartment. being a nosy asshole, but also picking up various small objects, checking behind and under them, opening drawers, feeling under tables--just in case. )
I've got a present for you. ( when he's done with this. )

[ dryly, as kyle watches jason go over his apartment. if he wasn't used to this from batman, he'd be more annoyed. ]
You really put out for second dates, huh. What is it?

( friendship means not letting your family bug friends' apartments. bruce was here, jason knows how he is. also fuck that guy and while he's used to being stalked around, he doesn't feel like dealing with it in kyle's place.
a few minutes of rummaging around before jason calls it as good enough and reaches down into his jacket pocket, to pull out an ear piece. tosses it in kyle's direction. )
A secure line. In case you miss me. Two way--so unless anyone decides to get real nosy, it won't be overheard. ( only so much he can do to secure it with all the other brats running around. he's smart, but he's not keep them all out forever smart. )

[ with a sigh, he pockets it. ]
If I wanted this, I'd get my ears pierced. Do we really have to do this cloak and dagger stuff?
[ kyle hates it. he's bad at stealth in and out of video games. ]
