Summary
Humming.
Tim is humming.
I picked his head—
Jason shrinks in on himself. It’s alarming how instinctual he becomes in a matter of seconds.
—I picked his feet—
He can feel the cold warehouse concrete on his skin like he never left.
—I woulda picked his body but it wasn’t fit to eat.
He died. He kept on dying. He kept on getting killed, over and over again, and he could feel all of it. Every single time.
“Stop it,” Jason finally gets out through gritted teeth.
Tim doesn’t respond at first, doesn't even look at him. He used to do that a lot— look away because he wanted to cry, laugh because that was all he could do. The laughing hurt, and Tim was ashamed. So he looked away.
“Tim, stop it.” Jason gets louder, and Tim almost seems to snap out of it— like he’s fighting himself. But then—
“Junior, shut the fuck up!”
That does it.
OR;
Tim gets kidnapped by the Joker, and Jason can’t bear the thought of another Robin suffering at the hands of Gotham’s worst supervillain. So, in his lowest moment, he strikes a deal in attempts to keep Tim safe.
