Summary
“I’m not suicidal,” Jason repeated and held his breath. Dick didn’t laugh this time. He supposed that was an improvement.
Instead, he watched as Dick placed his hands on the edge of the sink, tightening them to fists, then releasing the tension with a deep breath. He looked back at Jason for the first time since he’d entered the bathroom.
“Am I supposed to believe that?” Dick asked, a clear edge to his tone. Jason had half a mind to snap back, then he caught the tears building in Dick’s eyes that his brother frantically blinked away. Dick’s hands tightened on the sink again and Jason kept his mouth shut. “Last I checked, nonsuicidal people don’t slit their wrists.”
Jason swallowed heavily. He wanted so badly to say that Dick was being unfair. He couldn’t. He remembered carrying the same mix of anger and grief when he’d found his mother.
“I wasn’t trying to kill myself,” he corrected.
Or alternatively; Dick catches Jason trying to kill himself. He swears it's not like That. Dick doesn't believe him.

Summary
The city is still the same vicious son of a bitch that she is, Joker is still alive, Batman still roams the streets with a kid Robin, the poor are still poor, even poorer, and justice is just another word for easy forgiveness.
So, he becomes the Red Hood at the tender age of anger and full-potential, and he’s nineteen and he ditches all the birds and bats and all his childhood, and he’s all that the name stands for, and he becomes something that he is entirely but isn’t, not exactly, and he’s only as real as his anger makes him and he’s only as frightening as the frightened allow him to be.
or; a story in multiple parts of how Jason Todd deals with the aftermath of his own actions, featuring a Bat in each chapter and confusing deep familial relationships

Summary
When is an apology not an apology?
Bruce apologizes to Dick. The apology turns into an argument and the argument turns into another apology. Standing on the smoking dumpster-fire of the past, Dick tries to find a way on. Two steps forwards, one step back.

Summary
He blinks as his brain takes it’s sweet fucking time processing what his eyes are seeing.
“So you’re me, huh?” the kid says, rocking back and forth from his heels to his toes like he can’t sit still for three god damn seconds.
“That’s pretty cool. You’re huge.”
Jason hates him. He hates those stupid fucking curls. He hates that stupid bubbly energy. He hates that fucking earnestness, that eagerness to please. He hates that goddamn costume.
He hates the way the kid clings to Bruce’s shadow.
He despises that hand Bruce has on his shoulder.
