Damian does his best not to step on any toes as he completely tries to, metaphorically, lay himself at Tim's feet. Tries to make himself as apologetic and repentant as possible.
He knows it isn't even remotely enough, but there's only so much he can do for his brother after what his grandfather had done. It makes him feel dirty and unclean.
He can only promise that he will never become like him. He will kill himself before he becomes like that.
"Give me your hand." Steph demands after a long while. He puts out his left and she paints his pinkie, just his pinkie.
It's strange and he thinks it should be different color but he doesn't complain.

The sound of a jet engine distracts him.
