Summary
"Did Dick think this through? No, he did not. But he was working on it."
Bruce Wayne is dead. But Batman still stalks the night. Meanwhile, Red Hood is on the rampage again in Gotham City, bringing his own brand of Justice™ to the criminals who reside there.
Dick is tired and wants his brother to stop shooting at him. So he makes him a deal.
(Part of a series of loosely connected and loosely canon compliant fics that i'm putting in order mostly for my own sanity. If you are familiar with canon, you don't need to read the other stories in the series to understand)

Summary
Between surviving Dick's teen years, meeting the demands of being Batman, and stopping Lady Shiva's kids from raising hell in westside Gotham, Bruce has enough on his plate. The last thing he needs is to be in the crosshairs of his former classmates' family drama, but a visit from an old friend does just that.
((Inspired by Batman: Soul of the Dragon, where Bruce studied martial arts alongside Shiva, Dragon, and Bronze Tiger when they were teenagers))

Summary
On the fourth day, it becomes clear that Joe is organizing something—more muscle than usual, a few more Black Mask affiliates than there should be. The few glimpses of Joe that Dick gets, he’s on his phone, speaking rapidly and gesturing emphatically.
On the fifth day, everything is quiet. No one comes, no one goes.
On the sixth day, Tim calls Dick: they’re not sure where Jason is. And yeah, maybe that’s just normal, and they’re not panicking yet. But they’re not sure where he is. And they’re about to start looking.
And on the seventh day, Bruce shows up at his door with Jason standing next to him, pale and hacking out a cough, putting too much weight on Bruce’s shoulder, and says: “I need to ask you a favor.”
OR
Dick is supposed to be on a boring stakeout assignment. Jason complicates that.
OR
“I’LL TAKE CARE OF YOU.” “IT’S ROTTEN WORK.” “NOT TO ME. NOT IF IT’S YOU.”

Summary
Somewhere in the garage, Jason squeaks to a stop again, but this time, there’s no shouted exclamations, and the footsteps don’t start again. Dick furrows his brow. It sounds like he stopped near the Japanese cars, and Dick can’t even remember what’s over there. He picks up his pace from where he had been meandering through the garage and beelines to where he thinks Jason is, the sudden silence unnerving him. God, what if something’s wrong, what if—
Jason is standing, arms frozen at his sides, breath shallow, jaw clenched tight, eyes the size of dinner plates. When Dick sees what he’s staring at, he can’t help the smirk. Jason turns his whole head to look at Dick and says, in a near whisper: “is that a Supra?”
“Yeah,” says Dick, “that’s the Supra.”
OR
Bruce requests that Dick try to bond with Jason before the adoption and leaves zero instructions on how to do that. Dick improvises.
OR
there’s no way they’re not all car guys, I can feel it in my bones

Summary
“Don’t you dare tell me I don't know my own son’s face.” Familiar rage seethes at the base of his lungs. “Don’t you dare. Don’t you ever. I knew it against all reason. I knew it when it was impossible for it to be in front of me. I knew it faked and warped and desecrated and delusional and spitting mad. I knew it when it killed me to know it, to believe it to be true—”
“Describe it,” Dick challenges.
“I knew his face three years dead beneath a domino. I knew it as he carved a chunk of flesh from his own scalp and cursed my name…” His fingertips drift to a spot two inches behind his ear. Is that uneven texture the sign of a years-old scar, or just a tangle of hair?
(Or: Jason and Bruce get bodyswapped. It takes two full days for anyone to point it out to them.)

Summary
“Did Talia send you?” Jason spits angrily as he tries to sweep her off her feet. “Are you from the League?”
“Am not,” Cassandra replies and holds back a huff as he attacks again, this time with something she thinks is a flame dagger. Some of his moves are foreign to her, but she knows Batman’s training when she sees it. Jason seems to incorporate both elements well, so much so that he almost manages to catch her side with his sharp blade. This fight’s been going on long enough.
Grabbing Jason’s wrist just right and putting a necessary amount of pressure on it, Cassandra says, “You’re good. I’m better.”
And that’s how she ends up pinning her brother down behind a dumpster. So much for making a good first impression.
...
In which Shiva shares one of her many, many secrets; this one is going to turn Cassandra's world upside down.

Summary
“That was quite the show,” a voice says behind him, not impressed, not chastising: the evaluation of a fact. Jason jumps and scrambles to turn around.
“Shit, don’t do that to me.” He clutches a hand to his chest. At the mouth of the alley: an angular shadow, a long black cloak. The Batman. “C’mon man, you following me?”
Jason has been running into the Bat for as long as he’s been starting fights.
Jason has been running into the Bat his whole life.

It’s him or me, you have to decide.
Please don’t…
I’ll count to three.
Put the gun down.

Don’t.

Summary
The kid seizes in pain, back bowing off the table, and lets out a choked sound, scrabbling at Vin’s wrist. He doesn't know what the hell the kid expected to happen, blowing a building up like that, but he wouldn't be talked out of it. Now he's got a hole in his belly and shrapnel lodged in his guts.
“Hell of a lot of blood in one body. Batman?”
“The explosion,” Vin grunts, wrapping the wound up tight. “Helped him rig the bomb myself.”

Summary
Jason slings himself over the railing—just to prove that he still can—and heads down the fire exit, taking two stairs at a time despite himself. It's a quick walk down to the bend, but he finds himself breathless anyway, the warm summer air choking him with a sweaty kind of anticipation. A part of him wishes he had changed before coming down. He's in an old band T-shirt that doesn't bode well with the impression he's trying to make. But delaying his descent would've almost certainly driven his visitor away, and Jason wants that even less than he wants to make a bad impression.
He opens the door and slides in.
"Jason," says Batman, like he wasn't expecting him. Like he hadn't been beaming Morse code into the dust motes like the theatrical vampire that he is.

Summary
The boy watches him carefully, focusing sharply on his every reaction, “You got any kids?”
Bruce makes sure the surprise at the question is not evident on his face, “I don't,” He answers heavily.
Peter closes his eyes with a slow and deliberate movement, disappointment evident in the way his shoulders relax in defeat, “So you're not my dad, huh?”
“No, Peter,” Bruce confirms gently, not sure why the truth feels wrong, “I'm not your father.”
The boy opens his eyes, expression full of grief and eyes a blazing gold flecked with green, “My name's actually Jason.”

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
"Jeez, you're morbid." When the kid just bared his teeth in what could be generously described as a grin, if one were to squint and generally have the vision quality of a mole, Jason turned back to the rapidly paling Tim. "You want to sweep the place for signs of Nightwing while I wrap things up with junior over here?"
"Junior," the kid scoffed, which was real fucking rich for someone who was an inch or two from being strictly categorized as fun-sized. "Fuck off."
"Hey, watch your mouth. Kids who don't know times tables aren't allowed to swear."
"I can multiply just fine, jackass."
"Hood," Tim cut in, voice squeaky like it'd been squeezed-compressed-squashed ten times over. "I don't need to keep looking for Dick. He's right there."
or, who would've thought that a de-aged Dick would be really angry, really annoying, and really attached to Jason?
(Bruce. Bruce would've thought. This might be his worst nightmare, actually.)
