    Summary

    So, it didn’t start out like this.

     

    Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-

     

    So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.

     

    It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:

    “ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”

    --

    A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

    Summary

    Cold dread fills his gut as the pieces come together. He suddenly feels violently ill.

    The letter R, shiny where it's emblazoned on a chest. Brown, drying blood matted into black hair. Pulling at your binds, straining against a locked door before understanding: There is no getting out of here. No point trying. Hopeless acceptance that this is where and how you die. Trapped.

    “What's your name?” he asks the boy in the chair.

    “Jason,” says the battered mirror of himself.

    He forces himself not to puke.

    Summary

    This universe is completely different from his own; yet, in many respects, it's the same in the ways that matter. The Red Hood finds a broken bird in an abandoned wing of Arkham Asylum and rescues him. He doesn't expect for the bird to grow attached; or for him to do the same.

     

    Basically, post-UtRH Jason gets punted into the Arkham-verse and, upon seeing Arkham Jason, goes "Is anyone gonna save him or am I gonna have to do it myself?" while completely disregarding the fact that he's a complete disaster himself.

    Summary

    Jason sighs as he lowers his binoculars, chewing gum on one lonely Gotham rooftop. He leans against a gargoyle, thinking.

    So Batman has been… exchanged. Kidnapped, swapped, captured, mind controlled maybe.

    This changes his plans somewhat.

    Fuck.

    Sleep deprivation induced paranoia fixes everything, somehow. Hilarious.
