mute jason || jason returns to the all caste after the events of under the red hood.

Artificial Gravel by thenafics - 14/14, 13k

mute jason || He doesn't expect Bruce to aim for the neck. Slitting someone's throat always seemed like it would be more his gig than the Bat's.

as if i would ever have a place for you by @valkyriered

jayroy || Jason protects his autonomy with a level of fury that only comes from someone who’s had it taken away so many times. Roy sees that— he understands it. And he refuses to be yet another person to steal it away from him.

The Beating Heart by @beesbiteandwillowrites - M, 3/3, 25k

cicatrix by @spiritsglade

Red Hood is injured in the field. Robin notices.

Ever Wonder by @disniq

The last time Dick saw Jason in civvies he was 14, short for his age and all chubby, rosy cheeked enthusiasm. He’s none of those things now - broad shouldered and tall, eyes sunken above hollow cheeks, skin as grey as the granite headstone before him.

futile care by black_banners_raised - 4/4, 10k

oliver and red hood team up. oliver finds out red hood is jason todd, and calls batman about bruce wayne's second son coming back from the dead. oliver doesn't know batman and bruce wayne are the same person. it leads to an uncomfortable reunion and oliver giving bruce a piece of his mind. (ever wondered how another parent might react to bruce throwing a batarang at his son's throat? yeah, this is that fic)

lies of omission by @spiritsglade - 20/21 (ongoing), 76k

mute jason || Red Hood kept his distance from the Bats. They had something akin to a truce, but they always maintained a healthy level of mutual wariness and animosity. None of them knew him, not in any way that mattered, and he was content keeping things that way. Unfortunately, secrets had a way of coming to light.

mute jason || slade finds and takes in jason after the events of under the red hood. jason struggles to deal.

no glory in love by @birdiedoesdc - 3/3, 23k

part of “sofia gigante mentors jason” series, immortal jason || features dick finding out about the batarang scar and proceeds to beat the shit out of bruce for it.

only my body for a voice by @six-miscellaneous-nebulae

mute jason || “It’s that ‘word will get around’ that Hood’s apprehensive of, because Batman keeps a ridiculously close eye on every dead body that appears in Red Hood’s territory—not because he gives a shit, he doesn’t, but because for some godforsaken reason he’s decided that he can only abide murder if it’s performed by any other costumed freak besides Jason.”

Say Something by @skalidra

mute jason, jayroy || When Roy settles down onto a Gotham rooftop to wait for a target, just about the last thing he's expecting is for some random - not a Bat - vigilante to drop down and get comfortable next to him. The guy's maybe a little strangely avoidant of his questions, but he doesn't seem like he means any harm, and it certainly doesn't hurt that he's handsome too.

Things Left Unspoken by @hotdadslade - 10/10, 13k

mute jason, jason/joseph wilson || Six months after the events of Under The Hood, Joseph Wilson meets a stranger in a bar. Mute, with a massive scar across his neck, Joseph feels a pang of recognition. He's never met anyone with a story like his.

Did Garzonas fall? Was he pushed? Everyone who knows about Felipe Garzonas and Jason Todd has their own interpretation.

Regress by @scandalsavagefanfic

a few more words to use against me by @six-miscellaneous-nebulae

dick “#1 bruce apologist” grayson vs jason “actually no he's a grown ass man and he's responsible for his own actions” todd (references the events of rhato 25, victim-blaming)

Beat Me Down, Build Me Up by @hotdadslade

part of a series. Slade finds Red Hood bleeding out in one of his safehouses after the events on rhato25.

Eternal Motion by @dragonflyxparodies - 2/2, 8k

It comes in two parts; Gotham, rioting. Stained with her prodigal son's blood and fearing his absence. Something has to change, and Tim is willing to be the catalyst Jason will need. And the second; War, looming. A monarch presented with a betrayal of intergalactic consequence. If Batman is going to attempt to assassinate her consort, he'd best be prepared for the consequences.

A missing scene from Batman (2016) #148

into the ocean at night by @valkyriered - 2/2, 2k

alternate ending to gotham war. just hurt no comfort and the paralyzing agent of being trapped amongst people who doesn't care about your wishes and wants.

none of this will make them perfect, martha by @six-miscellaneous-nebulae

And here’s the thing—no one else is hyperventilating from fear. No other person, rogue, villain, crime lord, slightly unhinged anti-almost-hero, take your pick, has been fucked up the same seven ways to Sunday that Jason was. Is. Whatever.  He thought he got it, but apparently he doesn’t, because this wasn’t Batman using Jason as a test subject, as a prototype, because it hasn’t happened to anyone else.

Not Your Fault by @abizarreyodelingincident

It was not technically Bruce’s fault. “Where’s Jason?” “Dead,” Nightwing answers without inflection. “What’s the plan?”

respite by @creetchure

jay & rose, can be read as gen or shippy. rose have food and jason have super anxiety.

Things Worse Than Death by Kennedy1226

When part of the brain gets chopped off, the rest adapts to fill its old function. When the brain experiences trauma, sometimes it’ll block out the memory to save itself the pain. When the brain is constantly flooded with compounding terror at the slightest hint of an emotion, well, who needs emotions anyway? Not Jason. Not anymore.

Too Little, Too Late by @disniq

In which Dick actually has a reaction to Bruce and Jason's plan during Batman 148.

bomb under the batmobile

> FORTITUDE by @vfx-batman

Bruce is waylaid when he finds an adolescent beside the Batmobile clutching a detonator. [Red Hood: Lost Days #2 Canon Divergence.]

Make an Ass Out of You and Me by @skalidra

"The Pit doesn't do what you think it does," he says, shoving the words out of his mouth before he has a chance to reconsider it. "It didn't make me insane, Bruce. Maybe it emphasizes the worst parts of you, I don't know, but it made me… cold. Sociopathic, almost. I was angry, sure, but it barely influenced me. I was rational. Ruthless."

pyrrhic by chaosphere

When Bruce accuses Jason of trying to kill him, the reveal of a secret is in due course.

sheila haywood

casts and splints by @spiritsglade

There is a part of trying to save people that they've all long been intimately familiar with, though they never talk about it: sometimes you fail. Sometimes people die. Dick's never seen it affect Jason like this. (ft. victim-blaming and jason calling dick out on it)

compound fracture by @spiritsglade

When Batman arrived at the warehouse too late, after the bomb had already gone off, he chose to cover up the crime instead of solving it. Years later, Jason finds out. Funnily enough, it doesn't change anything.

grave site or grave sight by @nonagesimus

In the aftermath of Zur, Jason and Bruce both struggle with the anniversary of Jason's death.

Illusions of Motherhood by @abizarreyodelingincident

Bruce creates a charity after Jason's death. The Sheila Haywood Charity for Young Women. Jason has said nothing about it after he came back. (ft. victim blaming)

it's like I'm still here with you by @bonerot19

Jason finally tells Bruce what Sheila did.
