    Summary

    At first glance Thomas was sure the victim was already long gone, just a burned, mangled husk attached to tubes and wires. But he was shocked to see that the heart monitor was slowly beeping. “What happened?” Thomas immediately questioned. “There was an explosion in an abandoned building around Park Row. He was found in the rubble. He was resuscitated on the scene and coded once in the ambulance. Aside from severe burns, broken bones and trauma the worst injury seems to be a wound at his throat caused by a sharp object.” They rattled off more information as Thomas quickly prepped for surgery. Every second was going to have to count to save this one.

    or

    Jason dies in the explosion after his throat is cut by Batman's batarang. But somehow he wakes up he in an alternate universe where Thomas and Martha Wayne didn't die, and Bruce never became Batman. Lost and alone Jason struggles with his injuries and his own existence, but the Waynes are determined to help him every step of the way. Jason finds himself the pseudo older brother to a teenage Dick and a baby Damian. Little do the Wayne's know that Jason has a knack for "adopting" kids. He starts with his own tiny counterpart.

    Jason's Big Strong Boyfriend (He's Got Arms of Steal) by

    Summary

    Jason was a pretty heavy guy. As a kid, he was small and malnourished, and it was easy to let himself be swept up into Bruce's arms whenever he got injured on patrol or when he needed the comfort of his father. After the pit, he felt so wrong in his body. He had grown bigger than he had ever expected, bulky muscles that took up too much room in his skin.

    He could no longer be swept up into somebody's arms whenever he needed the help, instead needing to be supported by two shoulders as he hobbled over to wherever they needed him to go. A broken ankle had him hopping on one leg back to the Batmobile, and crippling exhaustion had him lying on the floor, passed out until he was finally able to find the energy to push himself back up.

    or

    Jason is simply too big to be carried. But wait, what's that in the distance? It's a bird! It's a plane! It's.. Roy Harper?

    Summary

    Jason Todd grew up with a fundamental fear of being seen. Not in the sense of shyness, but in the sense of shame. He supposed, if he wished to contemplate the fear’s origins, he might start where most tragedies do:
    The house he grew up in.
    Where the act of wanting was as good as a death sentence to that desire.
    He supposed he might even make an argument for the statement “people become what they are called”. He thinks that might have some merit, looking back.
    What he fears most, (like most other people), is how obvious it is to others. The fear itself.
    He wonders if they can see it.

    or

    Thanks to a rogue meta, the batfam gets to watch Jason's memories like a movie; and Jason just really wants a family again. But you cannot be loved if you aren't known, and well... if circumstances provide? might as well take the chance, right?

    Summary

    And Dick can hear the rest of his family coming closer. He gulps as Jason, Tim, Damian, Stephanie, Duke, and Bruce make their way towards them. Fuck, fuck, fuck, this isn’t going to plan.

    “Cass, I don’t know what—“

    “Lie.”

    “Cass—“

    “Lie!” She stomps her foot, and Dick stops trying to speak.

    “What is she talking about, Dick?” Bruce asks.

    Dick can’t find it in himself to look at any of them.

    -

    All he wanted was a hug.
