Summary
Jason is a kid living alone on the streets when a dish-washing gig turns into getting adopted into the Maroni Crime Family. He has everything he could ever want: a home, a family, a sense of security. All he has to do is pick up a job for the mafia every once in a while. Jason wouldn't have anything without them and he knows it.
Which is why, when he finds Robin bleeding out in the dumpster behind his restaurant, Jason would be an idiot to throw it all away. Right?

Summary
Jason Todd is seriously injured during patrol one night, and is forced to stay at the manor to recuperate until his injuries are healed. To pass the time, he makes a list of things he never got to do before he died.
Except there's one small problem: most of them involve Bruce, and Jason doesn't really think Bruce cares all that much about him anymore.This is a story about how wrong he is, but I made it sad anyway.
