Summary
Bad Things Happen Bingo | Punctured Lung |
--
Jason jerks back as a metal pipe spears through the bottom of the vent a foot in front of his face, the end of it sharpened into a savage, jagged point. He stares at it for a long moment, dumbfounded, before it disappears back through the hole it made with a horrible shriek of metal on metal. The hole is about three inches wide, the edges bent up into sharp, uneven scraps.
Jason lost his helmet back when their earlier fight had gotten out of hand, and he’s suddenly vividly aware of how vulnerable his face is, how vulnerable his eyes are, and he can barely lift his head more than a couple of inches in this position – definitely not enough to be out of range. There’s a vague murmur coming from the goons down below, but Jason can’t make out the words through the buzz of panic in his ears. He’s a sitting duck if they realize someone’s up here.
He glances at Tim, who’s frozen, staring at Jason with mirrored shock.
Oh, fuck.

OR: What would happen if a henchman with a pointy metal stick heard Bats crawling around in the vents above them?

Summary
Jason clamps down on the panic bubbling at the base of his sternum with a practiced hand and exhales all of his air, intending to settle into a meditative breathing pattern that should help him focus more on his other senses, except-
His breath comes out hot and humid, clouding the space around his mouth and nose and reflecting back on his cheeks, causing his skin to prickle uncomfortably. And when he inhales, it doesn’t quite fill his lungs, the air stale and wet.
It’s recycled air.
Jason involuntarily jerks in place, wobbling back a step.
He counts down five minutes in his head before he starts trying to break himself out – clings to the meager hope of rescue for those 300 agonizing, too-still seconds as he does his best to breathe shallowly and calmly to preserve his air supply. In the end, all it does is make him weaker, make the digging take longer.
Jason’s heart thunders in his chest. Dirt dribbles down onto his face.
OR: When an EMP goes off and Jason's powered-down helmet gets stuck on his head, he realizes a fatal flaw in his design - there's no way for him to breathe inside the helmet without power. Dick and Tim have to resort to desperate measures to save his life.

Summary
The Pit sizzles under Jason's skin, and everything burns. "Tell me: He’s still alive, isn’t he?” Toxic green forms a hazy peripheral around his vision, seeming to throb in time with his erratic heart rate, and he knows how he must look. “Isn’t he, Bruce?!” he repeats, feeling his mouth fill with venom as bitter as the waters of Lazarus.
He’s going to choke on it.
Or
When the bomb detonates after Batman prevents Red Hood from killing the Joker, Bruce takes his battered but breathing son back home. Jason wants to be anywhere but there.

Summary
“Gotham Harbour’s numerous toxins and pollution and whatever else might be in there would not leave a swimmer with just a little bug, especially not when all those chemicals were mixed together. Jason would be lucky if he didn’t start having hallucinations any time soon. Or a fit of giggles. God, he really hoped not.”
—
Jason falls into the harbour and gets shot. Dick uses Jason’s dazed state to make up for missed years as a big brother.

Summary
The bathroom door catches, stopping abruptly. When another light push doesn’t budge it open much further, Jason flicks on the light before peeking his head in. Then he stills.
Catherine’s slack limbs sprawl across a dingy bathroom floor, long hair splayed on the yellowed and cracked tiles. Her face imitates a ghostly paleness, lax with dried vomit and stray strands of hair stuck to her lips.
He blinks.
It’s Dick.
───
It's raining. Dick hasn't washed his hair in days. Enter: Jason.
