Summary
Jason doesn’t talk to his dad anymore.
He doesn’t know why it only just hits him. He’s in the horror section of his favorite book store downtown. It’s his lunch break, and the shift lead likes him, so he gets a few extra minutes to window shop. He’d seen the new Stephen Graham Jones in the display case, an ominous orange red, a record needle stretching across a bleak expanse, and he’d gone in, listening to the far off chime of the door bell.
He’s just got it in his hands, the feel of the velvet dust jacket on his fingertips, the smell of warm pastry from the instore cafe, when it hits him.
Jason doesn’t talk to his dad anymore, and he hasn’t really talked to him in years.
OR
A college!Jason, no capes/celebrity AU. Featuring: complicated telecommunications, all of the familial issues, and so many cigarettes.

Summary
“I said do it, Archer.”
And then the world slowed down. He saw Dick’s eyes widen, heard the twang of Oliver’s bow, felt Diana’s hands tighten around his neck. A wave of relief coursed through him. It was all going to be okay. Jason hadn’t feared death in a long time, if anything, it felt like going home.
He didn’t have to deal with Dick, or Bruce’s death, or Tim’s, or any of it. The darkness was coming and Jason was all too ready to be sucked into it.
Which was what should have happened. But instead . . .
Dick’s hands moved at inhuman speed. He grabbed the front of Jason’s shirt and yanked. Jason felt the arrow nick his arm before it flew past and shattered itself against the Amazon warrior’s chest.

Jason has Hanahaki Disease. But it's alright. It's okay. His family didn't need to know. He never should have come back in the first place. (Or, how Jason successfully hides his illness from the people he love the most.)
Platonic hanahaki

Summary
The third time Jason wakes up in his own coffin, he thinks the universe is probably trying to tell him something. He thinks maybe the universe should be clearer, though, maybe enunciate some more, because obviously there's been some miscommunication. He keeps dying. And then he keeps waking up.
Or
Jason Todd is immortal. He's not the only one.

Summary
There were few historical accounts within the League of Shadows that detailed the rare phenomena of what was translated to being the “reincarnation” of a soul.
They called these souls, the souls of those who had experienced a traumatic end far before their fated time, the “Born Again.” It was a rare occurrence that a Born Again soul would re enter the cycle of reincarnation to begin life anew. The act of transmigration, as documented over the centuries, showed that a Born Again soul was not specific to existing within a single timeline. The soul could have belonged to another galaxy in their previous life, and could be born into an entirely different universe than they had lived within prior to their death.
Talia al Ghul, Daughter of the Demon, had grown up hearing these stories. It was unexpected when she then found herself bearing a son with a special destiny and a future that held the potential to be larger than life. A son who would be revealed as becoming the very first Born Again soul selected to reincarnate into the bloodline of the al Ghuls…. despite the increased danger the status presented to her child.
This is his story.
