Summary
“Hi,” she says in a breathless rush, then takes a moment to swallow and wet her lips. “I, uh, need your help?”
“Are you dying?”
“N-not exactly.”
“Then you don’t need me,” comes Jason’s lazy, uninterested reply.
The call ends with a click.

Steph doesn't know what's more embarrassing: that she's been locked in a closet during a party, or the fact that her "friends" aren't really her friends.And to top it all off, Jason's the only one who can come rescue her.

Summary
The bathroom door catches, stopping abruptly. When another light push doesn’t budge it open much further, Jason flicks on the light before peeking his head in. Then he stills.
Catherine’s slack limbs sprawl across a dingy bathroom floor, long hair splayed on the yellowed and cracked tiles. Her face imitates a ghostly paleness, lax with dried vomit and stray strands of hair stuck to her lips.
He blinks.
It’s Dick.
───
It's raining. Dick hasn't washed his hair in days. Enter: Jason.

Summary
Another pause. "And you-" Dick coughed. "And you've dealt with this kind of stuff before?"
"Who. The fuck. Else. Is going to." He gritted, glaring across at him. Dick went quiet, and the basement's darkness seemed to flatten the air around them as they stood in each other's company, slightly awkward.
Dick swallowed, making an aborted gesture over at him. "So what are you a ghostbuster or something?"
"Oh my god," Jason groaned to himself, instantly turning and walking over to the hole leading out, preparing his grapple so he could leave. He did not have time for this.

Having use of the All-Blades means Jason's pretty used to being the most qualified person in Gotham to deal with supernatural issues. Why Dick's randomly started trying to help he has no fucking clue.

Summary
"You're here," Dick pointed out, tiredly smiling at his Robin.
Damian clicked his tongue, some of his usual liveliness returning as he rolled his eyes. "We are partners, of course I am."
Dick grinned wider. "Of course you are," He echoed.
A shadow of a smile tugged at Damian's lips.
"When you have recovered we should-"
And then Dick's back split open.
In which Dick grows some wings, Clark delivers some well-earned pie, and the Dynamic Duo 2.0 talk about everything and nothing.

Summary
"Oh." Nightwing said. "It's your first time."
"My what?" Jason said.
"It's like 'The Time Traveler's Wife.' Except I'm not your wife. Not that I'd be a bad wife, but not for you. That'd be gross - Wait, is that movie even out, yet?" Nightwing rambled, and Jason stood up on wobbly legs. "Shoot. I guess it doesn't matter. Not relevant -"
Or Jason Todd is a time traveler, and Dick Grayson is always his destination.
A story about brothers doing their best.
