#if I could choose a batkid to mirror the isolation of being batman #I would’ve chosen Jason #hear me out #batkids have been mirrors of batman where narratively necessary #and there’s the notorious ‘I work alone’ thing DC tried to do with Bruce for a bit #side eyeing literally every bat affiliate in Gotham #however #he does have one kid that is arguably the most isolated #Jason was created for the sole intention of being Bruce’s sidekick #he was never planned to break off into his own team so they didn’t establish any peers for him (Eddie Bloomberg is an ehhh cuz penpals) #so anyways #utilizing Jason for the narrative of isolation #ignore his posthumous inclusion to the honorary titans roster #Jason comes into his own as the red hood with no solid ties/affiliations to anything #he’s on his own crusade in Gotham very much in isolation #it would be interesting to see from an outsider’s perspective(Bruce) what a one man army really looks like #and it looks miserable as hell #kid has to deal with his own wounds #going into combat half healed because he just has no time to rest up proper m #kid has to stay distances away from everyone he interacts with cuz the Red Hood is Crime Alley’s last and final warning #and Jason Todd is dead #this is just an adhd way to say: oh man exploring the isolation of being the red hood would be kinda cool huh #this fully ignores rhato and rebirth #we ignore new 52 rhato and Scott Lobdell in this house ❤️ #ramble #why do I do this to myself #I love the fanon that Jason and Damian met in the league and that Talia pretty much adopted him #gosh this must look basic as all hell to anyone smarter than me o(-( #anyways #fic ideas
