Summary
"Ma'am," says Nick, her doorman, sounding hesitant. "I know it's not my place, but he looks—erratic. He's been shivering and talking to himself for the last five minutes. Are you sure I should let him in?"
Talia leans closer to the speaker. "Is he armed?"
"Not as far as I can tell."
Talia considers that for a moment. It is a very short moment.
"Send him up," she decides.
After struggling with the effects of his failsafe, Jason decides to seek refuge with Talia in Metropolis.

Summary
Very little surprises Batman. He has helmed the defence of Gotham for fourteen full years and counting, and over that time he has faced all manner of threat. City takeovers, plagues, earthquakes, transportation hijackings, brainwashing—nights that canvass the entire spectrum of the human experience. Over time he has come to expect the horrors. Has learnt to brace in advance and prepare his stomach for the novel reveal of another sick trick.
But tonight it is not some new depravity that startles him. It is instead the ingenuity of a figure cloaked in fabric imperceptible to his cowl’s thermal scanning. An invisible man creeping away from his car.
Batman laughs and the stranger whips his head in his direction.
Bruce is waylaid when he finds an adolescent beside the Batmobile clutching a detonator. [Red Hood: Lost Days #2 Canon Divergence.]

Summary
Flying back to Cherry Street, weaving reckless in the dark, it comes down to this: Dick is the only one of his siblings that Jason has any real claim on. Dick is the only one of that whole mess of victims to Batman's cult of self-immolation who belongs to Jason. Even more than that - Dick is the only person in the world who he shares a parent with, who knows what it meant to be the Robin to Batman of nearly ten years ago.
It's just not the same anymore.
So if Dick fucking kicks it, Jason's the only one left. Jason becomes an only child. Jason becomes the last of his kind. Jason becomes the sole keeper of that memory, of a brotherhood shared under a man who no longer exists. There is no way to replace Dick, because the world that they lived in together is gone, and can never give Jason a surrogate.
The Red Hood pulls the thread on a mystery big enough to bridge the distance between two cities, two brothers: The plot they unravel is far deeper and darker than a garden-variety drug trafficking scheme. A story about siblingship, hauntings, and rivers.
1. Ostium, osti(i): Latin noun, II Declension: Door, opening; (river) mouth; entrance (to the underworld).

This was incredible. Ruined my sleep to binge read this and it was absolutely worth it. One of if not the best Dick & Jason fics I’ve ever read

Summary
The first thing that Willis Todd does out of prison is an experience far more humiliating than all the years he’s just spent in Blackgate.
A small mercy is, he supposes, that it is not Bruce Wayne who actually picks up the phone.
willis todd does not know how it felt to hold his son’s body as it got cold. bruce wayne did not ever hold jason as an infant, nor at five.
whatever they say about april and the worth of money.

Summary
“Batman is down.”
Jason’s heart stopped for a moment.
“The only chance he has is if we send someone in to bring him out,” Raven explained, already kneeling down next to the prone body and setting up—something magical, Jason couldn’t really process anything other than the fact that Bruce was down.
“In where?”
“His mind,” Raven explained. “And we need to do it now. This witch is an incredibly powerful sorceress. If we delay much longer, he may sink too deep to be woken.”
He wasn’t prepared for Raven to turn piercing eyes towards him. “It has to be you.”
------------------------------------
AKA
Although Jason fears what he may find, he is forced to step into Bruce's magically-induced dream world and see where he fits in Bruce's ideal vision of his life.Series
