Now he has to learn how to navigate life with a dead spouse and a child he never knew existed, all while struggling with everything it means for him.
At least he has his family and friends to support him.
!Part of the Redwing AU, but doesn't really need the context of the other two fics to make sense. Fic takes place around chapters 4-5 of So Long (To The Kid I Used To Know)!

Summary
Fresh out of Arkham and done waiting for apologies that never come, Jason Todd leaves Gotham behind with nothing but a duffel bag and his motorcycle. He heads west—no destination, no plan—just the promise of silence and the hope that maybe, somewhere, he'll remember how to breathe again.
In Star City, he finds a small apartment and a fragile kind of peace. His neighbor is Roy Harper: single dad, hero, too charming for his own good. Roy doesn’t recognise him—doesn’t know Red Hood, doesn’t know Jason’s alive—and Jason isn’t ready to tell him.
But the road doesn’t end in Star City. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting, and love doesn’t erase the past. Jason still carries Gotham in his scars, and his name in someone else’s voice. Yet in quiet moments—over breakfast with Lian, in the hush between Roy’s laughter and his own—Jason starts to believe in something like home. Not the one he left behind, but the one he’s building now, one breath, one brick, one heartbeat at a time.
Because maybe Ithaca was never a city. Maybe it was a person. Maybe it was him, learning to stay.
(I suck at summaries just read the damn fic)

“5th floor, third door to the right.” Tim states shooting his own grapple to the correct floor.
Dick follows, racing down towards the ajar door. Bloody footprints are soaked into the carpet, tapering off before they get to the stairwell. The blood is browning, it’s been there awhile.

Summary
“What’s up with you, sweet cheeks?”
From where he sat on the Kent’s deep leather couch, Dick could hear Jon and Damian yelling from outside, fighting, playing, and laughing. Over the sound of rustling, dried corn stalks of the fields outside of the farmhouse, the autumn wind, and the simmering of a pot on the stove, he heard everything the boys had done— all of their little arguments, all of their inside jokes. Dick was great at listening and noticing and reading, and he had been able to read his little brother and his best friend since Dick and Damian got here. Jon and Damian were having so much fun.
Martha Kent stepped in front of him, her arms crossed over her chest with a distinctly I’m expecting an answer kind of look on her face.
Dick smiled, abashedly, and looked up at her. “Sorry. Nothing’s up. Just listening, is all.”
Or:
Dick Grayson is injured, and needs to sit out a battle at Ma Kent's house.
