Summary
Jason knew what he was doing was foolish, he knew disobeying the League’s order was punishable by death, but he didn’t care. The day he woke up screaming and burning, clawing at his skin when he was resurrected in the Lazarus pit. He could still smell the iron blood, he could hear the ticking of the bomb and the sound of Joker’s laughing, and he still felt the crowbar going down against his body, that was when he stopped caring. He knew he was selfish, childish, stubborn, and arrogant. Yet he couldn’t stop himself from cradling the young boy in his arms, in his rundown apartment, with wallpaper peeling off the walls, huddled in the dark and comfortable corner meant for a broken bird. Muscular back shielding the small boy cradled in his strong arms away from prying eyes. Maybe it was because he was jealous, or maybe he was just selfish. He was ordered to deliver the young Al Ghul to the big Bat, but he didn’t want to. He wanted to keep the small bird for himself. He was selfish for longing for the child to call him Baba, but he couldn’t help it. It was only natural it seemed.

Note: Don’t read. I don’t think the author has read the comics or at least not the comics leading up to death in the family and after. There are a lot of wrong details about the dynamic of the family and things that just did not happen that kind of have to be correct in order to get an accurate depiction of the characters.
Like it’s really important that Nightwing wasn’t there and wasn’t informed until AFTER Jason’s funeral and not even by Bruce. It shapes his and Bruce’s relationship. It influences how Jason feels when he finds out everything post pit.
I know fan fic is bendable but some things HAVE to stay the same bc otherwise you get the character dynamics completely wrong and a “coming back home” story doesnt hit half as good if your arent willing to wade thriugh the fucked op choices that were made during that time in their lives.
