Summary
Dick never really understood the meaning of the phrase deal with the devil before, how anyone could get themselves wrapped up in something so obviously rigged against them.
He gets it now.
Fortunately—or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it—there are a lot of people who are unhappy with the new status quo.

Summary
If he’s honest, Jason hasn’t thought he’d ever return to Gotham. Not after he’s worked so hard to escape the dirty streets of Crime Alley he grew up in. He’s scrubbed himself clean of the grime, has left the life as a street rat behind.
He tugs at his new uniform, uncomfortable and stiff as it is and can’t help the twitch of his lips, the corner of his mouth curling upwards. It doesn’t suit him, he thinks, after almost five years on the force he still can’t think of himself as a cop like the ones he’s despised as a kid.--
Alternate Universe - Jason Todd is being transferred to the Gotham Police Department. And between the Batman and the corruption rooted deeply within the force, he ends up with more on his hands than he signed up for.

Summary
On his day off tomorrow, Jason will try to get the swelling on his eye down. He’ll try to sleep, cook, sleep some more, then wake up and go to work again, long hours in the hospital on his Ortho rotation. Jason doesn’t really have hobbies, besides fighting. He isn’t a person in any way that feels real. Somedays, he wonders if he ever had more than this. If he ever was more than this. It doesn’t seem likely.
He thinks a lot about divine punishment, and about who he was before, and about how, probably, he’ll never even find out.
OR
The new hospital fund, courtesy of the Waynes, swept through the hospital weeks ago. It’s meant more funding for facilities and for Jason’s patients. It’s helped their families stay alive and keep afloat. Jason himself is still drowning and paranoid, his forgotten past warring with his violent present, his day life warring with the night. Gotham’s underbelly is surfacing, dragging with it new faces, and old ones, too. Jason can't really trust the Bats or the Waynes or the gangs crawling out onto Gotham's streets. Maybe he can't trust anyone at all.
