Summary
Sleep deprived™ Jason hangs out with Dick then they surprise Bruce at work with early lunch and some love. This fic is inspired by farmers’ markets on those summery days and the belief that if I run fast enough the sad can never catch me.
(I mean you are telling me that Bruce Thomas/Alan Wayne wouldn’t be absolutely BASKING in joy if his kids just decided to randomly show up at Wayne Enterprise and pay him a little midday visit? )

Summary
Jason doesn’t talk to his dad anymore.
He doesn’t know why it only just hits him. He’s in the horror section of his favorite book store downtown. It’s his lunch break, and the shift lead likes him, so he gets a few extra minutes to window shop. He’d seen the new Stephen Graham Jones in the display case, an ominous orange red, a record needle stretching across a bleak expanse, and he’d gone in, listening to the far off chime of the door bell.
He’s just got it in his hands, the feel of the velvet dust jacket on his fingertips, the smell of warm pastry from the instore cafe, when it hits him.
Jason doesn’t talk to his dad anymore, and he hasn’t really talked to him in years.

A college!Jason, no capes/celebrity AU. Featuring: complicated telecommunications, all of the familial issues, and so many cigarettes.

Summary
“I said do it, Archer.”
And then the world slowed down. He saw Dick’s eyes widen, heard the twang of Oliver’s bow, felt Diana’s hands tighten around his neck. A wave of relief coursed through him. It was all going to be okay. Jason hadn’t feared death in a long time, if anything, it felt like going home.
He didn’t have to deal with Dick, or Bruce’s death, or Tim’s, or any of it. The darkness was coming and Jason was all too ready to be sucked into it.
Which was what should have happened. But instead . . .
Dick’s hands moved at inhuman speed. He grabbed the front of Jason’s shirt and yanked. Jason felt the arrow nick his arm before it flew past and shattered itself against the Amazon warrior’s chest.

Jason has Hanahaki Disease. But it's alright. It's okay. His family didn't need to know. He never should have come back in the first place. (Or, how Jason successfully hides his illness from the people he love the most.)
Platonic hanahaki

Summary
The third time Jason wakes up in his own coffin, he thinks the universe is probably trying to tell him something. He thinks maybe the universe should be clearer, though, maybe enunciate some more, because obviously there's been some miscommunication. He keeps dying. And then he keeps waking up.
Or
Jason Todd is immortal. He's not the only one.

Summary
There were few historical accounts within the League of Shadows that detailed the rare phenomena of what was translated to being the “reincarnation” of a soul.
They called these souls, the souls of those who had experienced a traumatic end far before their fated time, the “Born Again.” It was a rare occurrence that a Born Again soul would re enter the cycle of reincarnation to begin life anew. The act of transmigration, as documented over the centuries, showed that a Born Again soul was not specific to existing within a single timeline. The soul could have belonged to another galaxy in their previous life, and could be born into an entirely different universe than they had lived within prior to their death.
Talia al Ghul, Daughter of the Demon, had grown up hearing these stories. It was unexpected when she then found herself bearing a son with a special destiny and a future that held the potential to be larger than life. A son who would be revealed as becoming the very first Born Again soul selected to reincarnate into the bloodline of the al Ghuls…. despite the increased danger the status presented to her child.
This is his story.

Summary
Jason Todd grew up believing himself a poor kid of the worst parts of Gotham, unaware of his true origin as the son of one of the richest men in Gotham.
His entire life changes as he is presented with the fact of his true parentage right after Willis is sent to prison for life, and Catherine gets sicker as the days go by.
He loved his mom Catherine, and would never forget her even when she asked him to after leaving him behind at the giant doors of Wayne Manor on the afternoon of his 9th birthday.
Unexpected experiences wait for him from then on...

Summary
In a world of soulmates, Bruce Wayne is born without any marks on his body. He gets used to the idea of being alone.
Until his soul marks start showing up.
How the hell does he have so many kids?!
---
Bruce curses, running a hand back through his hair. This isn’t… No. He isn’t supposed to have a soulmate. He is the Dark Knight, for crying out loud.
“Don’t tell him,” Bruce orders.
Alfred blinks. “Why not? You’ve found one of your soulmates. This is cause for celebration-”
“The Wayne family is a family of choice. He shouldn’t feel like he has to stay just because we’re…" Bruce stumbles. "And besides. He’s going to expect me to be some…some overly-doting-parent type and I can’t do that. There’s so much…so much about being someone’s soulmate. You’re supposed to be this…this…perfect person. You’re supposed to complete someone else. How the hell am I supposed to do that?”

Summary
"He should do something—stop this. Only Jason, half a villain, half insane, locked in a fucking asylum, to fix Tim and save Bruce and make everything okay again. And he can’t. He can’t."
Jason's new roommate bears a striking resemblance to the Joker. And the new Robin. And somewhere along the line, things have gone very, very wrong.

Summary
Jason Todd is a simple man. He likes to assault people who deserve to be assaulted. He hates Batman, and Nightwing, and is generally annoyed by the random teenager that has been stalking him for the past hour. He has what some would call a drinking problem, and what others (Jason, mainly) would call a 'totally understandable way to cope with the last few years.'
He has a shitty apartment with shitty neighbors. He has, against all odds, a life.
He's fine. He's fine.Bookmarked by IOA
