[Harper's words do, for better or worse, kind of sting, and Jon can feel the tears well up a against his will as the future engineer rants.
He's had a really long couple of days, a decent chunk of which wasn't even spent on Earth, much less the right dimension, and this isn't exactly on the top of the things he wanted to do, even if the idea of saving the Green is cool.
And about when Jon's almost ready to yell back, because it's not his fault Harper's life sucks, the man says words that even he can tell is going to result in something really dumb, if he were to go with how Damian would see the whole situation.
And then the rabbit foot on the chain comes up and drops onto the grass, and Harper is groaning in pain before ending up on the ground himself.
Jon is already rushing over the same second, imaginary what-if snark (Damian) and reassurance on what to do (his dad) rattling in his head as he tries to not panic too much.]
Hey! Hey! Are you okay? Hey! Mr. Harper! Don't die! C'mon!
[Where's the rabbit foot, where's the rabbit foot, he does his best to search for it on the ground below; something that would've been easier and faster with his Kryptonian powers, but he's still small and deft enough that getting into a grown man's space to find something that small isn't that hard of a task.]
