    Summary

    While out on patrol one night, Bruce encounters a kidnapping attempt. A pretty routine night, unfortunately.

    When the victim in question happens to be a 9-year-old Jason Todd, however, Bruce finds himself getting a little too attached to a child he just met. Was it okay to kidnap a child right off the street and keep him?

    Summary

    What does it mean to come back to life as an accidental wrinkle in the fabric of reality? Jason Todd might not know the meaning of life, but he does figure out the meaning of his life, somewhere in between killing the Joker and ringing the doorbell to Wayne Manor.

    Or, a canon-divergent take of Lost Days and Countdown to Final Crisis, where Under the Red Hood doesn’t happen.

    Summary

    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.

    Summary

    For once, he didn’t see a body of mangled flesh and bones. He saw himself. Alive. Whole. Surviving through an ache that wasn’t soul-deep, a pain that didn’t haunt him with the echoing trill of laughter.

    Ah, as soon as the thought flitted through Jason’s head, he bit his bottom lip. He worried it between his teeth and squeezed his eyes shut. Damn, okay. Perfect time to come to that realization.

    With a derisive snort of laughter, Jason said, “Maybe you’re right.” He wanted to hold on to the anger in his chest, but the heat dissipated like smoke caught in a gusty wind. It drained with his will to fight, and when he said, “Maybe pain is the only love I know,” Jason just sounded tired.

    --

    In which Bruce, concerned for Jason's safety, interrupts a post-mission tryst between the Red Hood and Deathstroke. And after Slade bears witness to an argument that brings Jason's perception of love and abuse into question, he decides to show Jason there's more to pleasure than just pain.
