Summary
“‘M not in college.” He confessed, regretfully, still a little stunned.
“You. You’re not??”
Jason frowned.
“Yeah? Didn’t finish high school either, actually. T’s not a big deal, just..” It was somewhat of a big deal, though he didn’t want to admit it. More to himself than to Steph. “..life, I guess.”
That was a strange conversation to have in the middle of the canned fruit and vegetable section.
“Life and stuff.” She quickly collected herself.
“Exactly. Stuff does tend t’a happen a lot out here.” The corners of Jason's lips perked up.—
In the end, what helps Jason get his life back is literature. Book by book, he forms connections, makes a home for himself, and most importantly, re-discovers who he is not as Robin, not as Red Hood, but as Jason.

Summary
"You just turned fourteen a few weeks ago, right?” Jason whistled. “And I thought I died young.”
Tim shook his head. Took a step back.
No. Nope. No way.
This was not happening.
Or: After Tim dies, his soul remains stuck as a ghost at the Manor. Forced to watch Dick and Bruce grieve him and unable to do anything, the only thing making the afterlife bearable is Jason. Until the day his ghost departs.
Tim assumes that Jason has passed on. But then the Red Hood breaks into the Cave. And for the first time, someone can see Tim.
Note: This fic is an emotional rollercoaster, and if you would like to see if you are tall enough to ride this ride, you can check the a/n at the beginning of ch 1!!
Also, this is technically a sequel to the first fic in this series, but you only need to read the one-shot if you want to experience the night Tim dies. You can 100% start here!!

Summary
Jason clicked the pen, and started to write on the envelope.
Dear Mr., “Gotham’s foster care is safe.”,
Thank you so much for dropping me off at Ma’s personal soldier camp.
I had a great time, truly a ten out of ten experience.
I loved the part where I got shot in the arm. A real highlight of my week.Thank you for your genius-level, billionaire insight. You really nailed it. Incredible stuff. You could teach a class on how out of touch you rich twats are.
Since you were so kind to drop me off somewhere so safe and warm. I thought you might enjoy these documents.
-Jason Todd
AKA: Jason Todd gets permanently trapped in his twelve-year-old body after Bruce dropped him at Ma Gunns's School for Boys. This time, he isn't going to Batman for help; he will take on Crime Alley by himself.
It's not like Bruce actually cares about him.

Summary
Bruce isn’t foolish enough to mistake this man for his son, for Jason, but everything about him tugs at his mind.
Jason was four foot ten, barely scraping a hundred pounds on a good day. Despite his twiggy form, he had round cheeks, clinging to the baby fat from his adolescence. His curls were unruly and his eyes were the brightest blue, always scrunched with delight or mischief.
This man is everything Jason was not. He’s tall, broad. Every feature is sharp and defined with a strong jaw and muscles that nearly rival Bruce’s own. His eyes are dark, almost dangerous, his mouth set into a frown. He is in a worn pair of dark jeans and a blood stained leather jacket.
There is nothing about this man that should make Bruce think of Jason, and yet there is.

Summary
Jason’s 15. Not old enough to drink but still knows enough to break a man 10 different ways before they could blink. If that doesn’t make people question Bruce’s psychological state as a person, let alone a parent, then he doesn’t know what will.
He runs because he's not needed anymore. Because Bruce took away everything that ever meant anything to him, leaving him as just plain old Jason Todd.
He runs because at least he can keep his head held high.
