Damian, whenever he corners Jason:

[darkothemapper]

His own personal hospital 👩‍⚕️

[darkothemapper]

Jason: So, demon spawn, what’d you get me for Christmas?

Damian, handing him a box: Here.

Jason: *opens box*

Damian: It’s a first edition copy of Misery by Stephen King.

Jason: Oh, how original, even though I have 3 copies of these already.

Dick: Jason, be nice

Tim: Even I have to admit that’s a nice gift. The kid probably murdered his allowance for that.

Damian: Oh, no, I didn’t. That’s one of his copies.

Jason: Wait a minute, you stole my book and gifted it back to me?

Damian: Yes.

Jason: You little-

Damian: Look at the first page

Jason: *sighs and opens book* (;° ロ°) *carefully takes a seat then reads aloud the text* To Jason, you can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will. With best wishes, Stephen King

Dick:

Tim:

Jason:

Damian: Yeah, Raven wanted to get her book signed so I got one of your copies and went with her. Sorry if you didn’t want anyone writing on it, he kinda added a few things to your notes

Jason: (⚆ᗝ⚆) *shaking, while holding the book* Stephen King read my notes?!?!?!

Damian: Yes, I remember him complimenting them and saying you were very observant.

Jason:

More Jason Todd Headcanons:

He refuses to take opiod painkillers no matter how bad he is hurting because he is terrified of getting an addiction like his mother.

To this day, Jason is the only one Alfred allows to help in the kitchen.

He never takes elevators. Self explanatory.

The other Bats have seen and heard him have nightmares before and they always assumed they were all about the Joker or maybe the League until one night when Jason ended up crashing at the Manor, Dick and Tim find him crying from the couch in his sleep and he calls out Bruce's name, begging and pleading until he wakes with a choked scream with a hand pressed tightly to the scar at his throat. They never ask but after that point both Dick and Tim struggle to look at Bruce in the eyes.

Related to that, Jason never told anyone about how Bruce cut his throat with a batarang because he always assumed none of them would believe him, that they'd just accuse him of lying.

Damian once threatened him with a crowbar and Dick had to physically restrain Jason from going after the small child with his knives. Dick had a serious talk with Damian after about not trying to re-traumatised your brothers just because they're retelling embarrassing baby stories your mother told them.

Edit because I'm bad at wording things and I've stopped caring about pissing Batman fanboys off: Jason is absolutely one of the best, if not the most formidable fighter in the Batfam. He has trained with Bruce since he was a kid, then the League, and was the only human to train with and survive the All Caste. He is fucking scary. But more than his physical prowess is his ability to get into people's heads, he studies people's flaws and weakness and uses that against them. He isn't just a great fighter, he's a intelligent fighter. One of his listed strengths on his Wiki page is literally 'tactican'.

His style of detective work isn't like Bruce's or Dick's. He grew up in Crime Alley, surrounded by crime since he was a kid, he understands how it works and how to use it to his advantage and he has resources and connections that none of the others have. He's less about the forensics and science and more about the people. What makes them tick and how he can use that to get what he needs.

Related to that, he also is insanely stubborn. He has grit, sure, but he is also afraid. He isn't afraid of death but he is so fucking scared of the possibility that if he dies again he might come back. In his words "the worse part of about his death was that it wasn't permanent." As such he will go further than most to prevent it from happening again. Even if that means enduring the worst pain imaginable because still to this day the thing that haunts him most, more than the warehouse and crowbar and Joker, was waking up in that coffin and realising no one was coming for him. That he was alone.

He hoarded food when he was first adopted by Bruce. And slept with a chair jammed under the handle of his door.

It took months for Jason to let Bruce or Alfred touch him as a kid. His only male authority figure had been Willis and it had instilled a strong distrust of older men in him.

Him and Stephanie both volunteer at shelters and food banks in their free time. Steph once invited Cass because she wanted her to see that Jason was more than just a killer.

Tim still flinches from him when he gets too close and it breaks Jason's heart a little. He's hurt people but it has always been him in control, his decision. The Pit Madness took that away from him, or at least it twisted his betrayal and hurt into rage and he still hasn't quite figured out how to apologize for that.

when your hostage won’t stop talking about his dnd campaign

bonus, Jason actually gets into the lore

[darkothemapper]

jason todd is really the king of extremes huh. he either becomes a mass murdering vigilante or a catholic priest. there’s no in between.

Do you know what would be very funny? If in Harley Quinn series Jason returned and did the thing he did on Batman: Hush

Just like. Attacked Bruce and revealed himself to be Jason, and upon not the desired reaction he switched places with Clayface.

Just. Imagine it.

Clayface just loving the whole YOU LET ME DIE DAD speech and then later Jason going to cry on Harley's couch and eating a bunch of ice cream while everyone around him share their shitty parents stories just to make Jason feel bad.

Harley and Jason bond through Joker Trauma™ and Harley helps him with the Red Hood moniker and just invites him for the team.

Pam and Jason making a tea club for people who died and came back.

Jason and Clayface bonding through Drama and Theatricals.

Jason and Shark king bonding through something completely unexpected that no one expected.

Does anyone else think that the rest of the batfam flip out whenever Jason uses a duffle bag anymore given what happened the last time he had used one?

Jason: *duffle bag slung over his shoulder when he comes to raid the Manor kitchen and have his weekly tea with Alfred* Sup

Dick: *voice two octaves higher* Hey Little Wing, watcha got there?

Jason: *rummaging through the fridge* A duffle bag?

Dick: And what would be--

Tim: *has not slept in three days and is on his 11th cup of coffee-red bull disaster concoction in the last 12 hours and sees the bag* Oh my god Jason did you chop off people's heads again? Why would you bring it to the Manor? Quick, if you get out of here before B comes back you can--

Dick: *voice even higher* Are you trying to help him with this??

Damian: Todd, the canvas is a terrible idea for dismembered body parts--it stains and is easily incriminating.

Dick: *voice only audible to Titus at this point* That's your problem with it???

Damian: Did you say something?

Tim: *adding a shot of espresso directly into the Redbull can* He said: 'That's your problem with it???'

Jason: *eating lasagna leftovers* How did you even hear that?

Steph: *leaning in through the kitchen window* Boy Wonder over here has ultrasonic hearing aids cause he likes to be prepared for anything

Cass: *materialising from the doorway and grabs the duffle from the counter before disappearing back into the Manor*

Dick: *gasping* Et tu, Cassandra? Also Steph how are you even here right now?

Steph: *shrugging* Wanted to raid your kitchen for a bit

Alfred: Ah Master Jason I see you got Miss Cassandra those books you mentioned

Dick: *strangled* Books?

Jason: *flatly* No it's eight decapitated heads remember

Hello there... 🙃

[darkothemapper]

I'm probably gonna get flames for this, but I don't care. I need to get this off my chest.

I just finished reading the comics on which Batman: Under the Red Hood was based. And... I have no words to describe what I feel right now.

When I was watching the movie, I was upset that Bruce basically chose Joker, his son's murderer, over Jason. And I heard of the batrang while reading fics. But to see it with my own eyes? It was worse. Now, I don't know whether Batman threw batrang on accident or on purpose, and to be honest, I don't care. He did it and hurt Jason. He can go to hell, along with Joker. Jason deserves better.

That's all. Thanks for listening to my rant.

“Hard to forget that night, huh? In a way, Batman, this was the site of your first great failure. Maybe your greatest, but certainly not your last, right?

Ah, memories…

Variant cover for TASK FORCE Z #12

[darkothemapper]

my general opinion on shipping is that anything is a game, because 1 it's all fictional anyway, 2 if you tag it properly only people that are actively looking for it will find it, 3 if it's not canon then it's not canon, 4 it's just fun, nothing deep

"but it's problematic or just wrong…" yeah, and what? if you don't like it, it's not for you. if it makes you uncomfortable, remove yourself from the space where it's presented/discussed. "but the author/s never intended for this relationship to be read like that…" yeah, but I'm the author of this art/fic/meta and my intention is different, and I want to present this thing in non-canon context, let me play in this space that would never exist

block people and tags, exclude them from searches, and just enjoy the things you enjoy, instead of looking for things that will make you dislike the fandom

because, you know, that's what fandom is about - enjoying things
