"I don't know how." Jason's voice cracks, and he can't hold the tears back anymore. It's a kind of step forward that he doesn't pull away when he starts crying; he's always been inclined to shut himself off, needed Peter to coax him into being comforted, but all he wants is Peter near him and he doesn't have the strength to make himself move. "I don't know how to help you, or make any of this better, or... or stop waiting for the day we grow up and all of this has to end."
