    Summary

    The ringtone lets Bruce know before he’s even pulled the phone out that someone in his family is calling from a civilian line, which—given the current hour—should mean Alfred is calling. The caller ID displays Tim Drake instead.

    Threads of concern and apprehension coil through him, but it’s possible—something prevented Tim from heading out with Dick tonight. If he were sick, or injured, Alfred would have let him know already, but it’s possible something came up with school or his friends. Dick would be just fine handling a solo night in the Batman suit.

    There’s no proof that anything is wrong yet. Bruce takes a steady breath and accepts the call. “Hey, Tim,” he says as he unlocks his car. “I’m—”

    “Sorry,” a mechanized voice cuts in, and Bruce goes still, fingers curled around the driver door handle. “Tim’s not available right now.”

    --

    Or: Instead of taking over the drug trade, Red Hood kidnaps Bruce Wayne.

    Summary

    You're tired, you're broken
    You're cut and you're bruised
    But nothing's too heavy,
    Just hold on
    -----
    Two scenes after the world falls down on them. Two different moments in time and in life where they wonder what they mean to each other. Two similar situations that reflect each other like mirrors as they face the heavy weight of potentially losing each other.

    Two brothers carrying each other home.

    Summary

    "Ma'am," says Nick, her doorman, sounding hesitant. "I know it's not my place, but he looks—erratic. He's been shivering and talking to himself for the last five minutes. Are you sure I should let him in?"

    Talia leans closer to the speaker. "Is he armed?"

     

     

    "Not as far as I can tell."

     

     

    Talia considers that for a moment. It is a very short moment.

    "Send him up," she decides.

    After struggling with the effects of his failsafe, Jason decides to seek refuge with Talia in Metropolis.

    Summary

    Jason wasn't expecting the phone call. Well, he didn't expect phone calls in general, since his friends amounted to two guys who sat with him at lunch and talked to each other. He had forgotten one of their names, and at this point it was really, really too late to ask. It was either Michael or Mitchell.

    Probably.

    Summary

    Bruce was still kneeling in front of Jason. He brushed the hair away from that young face slowly, letting himself remember this moment.

    "You're going to go to a place that's as different from here as can be. I coded it into the machine, all you have to do is sit there and be still." He said. There was a sudden emotion that pressed into his ribcage, something wild and sad and awful. "You just have to sit still," he said again, his voice rougher.

    Summary

    “Dude,” Wally says, a little pleading, then- “How long are you even gonna be stuck there anyways?”

    Dick tries, desperately, to keep the hope in his chest alive. “No clue. Bruce and- and Robin are fighting, or something. I haven’t really asked.”

    Wally’s response to that, at first, is just this sharp little noise. “Guess you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, huh?” he says only a moment later. “Or- is it an old bat, in this case? Doesn’t really sound as catchy though…”

    Or: Dick Grayson is called back to Gotham to help out with protecting the city. It doesn't take long for everything to fall apart.

    Summary

    January is killing him, he thinks.

     

    “Hey, I was just calling to check in. Babs said you didn’t show on patrol. Don’t worry about it, it was pretty dead last night. It’s probably this weather. Anyway, I’m just calling to make sure you’re all good. Text me when you get this.”

    Summary

    Jason had played out Bruce’s first words to him again and again, the blame, the disgust, the rejection, and then, sometimes, when he was feeling sentimental, tears and warmth and muttered prayers about the miracle of his return. He had thought he was prepared for anything.

    Or; Immediately after the Lazarus Pit, Jason comes back.

    Summary

    Jason is alive. Has been alive. Sure, he may smell a little bit like death, but that's what happens when you die and come back. It's not like he's dead enough for a necromancer to make use of him.

    Summary

    Jason dreads the moment when Bruce starts talking. He’s probably trying to figure out the angle, sorting through his internal spreadsheets. They’re going to analyse the past year in as few words as possible, or discuss the treatment, to give Jason the illusion that he has any control over it. Or maybe they will get back to the topic of how Bruce simply cannot do what Jason wants him to; the judge, jury, and executioner lecture that Jason never really needed, because deep down he knows that his cries and requests were selfish. Childish, even.

    But the silence stretches. It starts feeling more like peace.

    “I love you,” Bruce says, and that’s not code for anything.

    jason does (not) have a plan. semantics are a problem.

    Summary

    “Why did you do it, Jason? Why did you pretend to kill him—why didn’t you fight me back?”
    “Fuck you, Bruce! Are you seriously trying to blame me for beating me to death?”

    Roy isn't close to come to Jason’s rescue, and by the time Batman stops beating Red Hood for shooting Cobblepot, it’s too late.

    Batman kills Red Hood, and a month later, Bruce Wayne starts to hallucinate and see Jason Todd everywhere.

    That’s how the end starts.

    Summary

    Flying back to Cherry Street, weaving reckless in the dark, it comes down to this: Dick is the only one of his siblings that Jason has any real claim on. Dick is the only one of that whole mess of victims to Batman's cult of self-immolation who belongs to Jason. Even more than that - Dick is the only person in the world who he shares a parent with, who knows what it meant to be the Robin to Batman of nearly ten years ago.

    It's just not the same anymore.

    So if Dick fucking kicks it, Jason's the only one left. Jason becomes an only child. Jason becomes the last of his kind. Jason becomes the sole keeper of that memory, of a brotherhood shared under a man who no longer exists. There is no way to replace Dick, because the world that they lived in together is gone, and can never give Jason a surrogate.

    The Red Hood pulls the thread on a mystery big enough to bridge the distance between two cities, two brothers: The plot they unravel is far deeper and darker than a garden-variety drug trafficking scheme. A story about siblingship, hauntings, and rivers.

    1. Ostium, osti(i): Latin noun, II Declension: Door, opening; (river) mouth; entrance (to the underworld).

    Summary

    The view shifts when Batman stands up. From this angle, the brightness of the city lights makes it possible to distinguish the outlines. Jason’s eyes are closed, and his head lulls backward, as if he was asleep. But there are wet streaks on his cheeks and his lips open and close slightly, soundlessly. There must be another movement too; perhaps he squeezes Batman’s hand, or attempts at a kick, because Batman readjusts his grip and says: “Shh. We’re going home. We’re going home.” Everything twice.

    To the side, something glints in the darkness; a familiar shape, all sharp.

    Dick pauses.

    He rewinds the recording.

    dick is welcomed back in gotham by his not-quite-dead brother and his father's refusal to share the report of a night from weeks prior.

    Summary

    "I kill so others don't have to," Bruce states firmly and clearly. This entire situation didn't seem like it could get any more bizarre, what with Bruce sitting in the dark and polishing guns, but somehow it just has, "While you are here you will not kill."

    Jason's throat is scratchy and dry with terror, but the insatiable feeling of being talked over and disregarded is a fresh wound. He can't back down from this if he tried, "I've killed. I still kill. Who the fuck do you think you are to stop me?"

    Bruce gently sets down his gun, and picks up the blade beside him with practised ease. Jason's blood runs cold when the man wearing his father's face says, "You will die by my hand if you try."

    (Jason meets a version of Bruce who has manifested his fears very differently.)

    A brother is like a scar.

    Ugly. Unwanted.

    Foisted on you anyway.

    One year after Blüdhaven's destruction by Chemo, Dick Grayson doesn't have a life with pieces enough to pick up. If he ignores all the scars though, he might just be able to build something new. But Jason Todd is the last person who could help him with that.
