Summary
Jason Todd goes to Titan's Tower to send a message. He won’t kill Robin there, no—that wouldn’t be poetic enough. Instead, he’ll torture the cuckoo to death and dump his body in the Nevada desert, never to be found—ensuring he has enough fingers and toes to mail Bruce for the next twenty years.
Only when the time comes, Jason…can’t do it.
Now he’s stranded 3,000 miles from Gotham with nothing but a smart-mouthed Robin, a beat-up pickup truck, and a dream.
You know what they say: take me home, country roads.
Or,
Jason goes to Titans Tower to attack Tim. Instead, the two road-trip across the country from San Francisco back to Gotham. Featuring greasy diner food, shitty motels, talks about trauma in the bed of a pickup truck, and as many metaphors about roads as I can possibly cram in here. And stars, for some reason.
OR OR,
Jason drives forever and ends up exactly where he started.

Summary
Dick Grayson hugs the way most people breathe: easy and natural, like it's a necessary part of living.
Tim's wrapped up in one now, his brother's arms all the way around his shoulders, tugging him in close.
He's never told Dick that the first hug he can remember is that day at the circus, from a stranger who would in time be family. He's never told Dick that the next hug he remembers after that is nine years later, caught up in those same strong arms. He thinks he'd rather die than admit it.
"You're not hurt?" Dick is saying. "Nothing cruel and unusual, right?"
"She only let me have one cup of coffee a day," says Tim, very dry, and Dick makes a strange sort of a sound, almost a laugh, and tightens his hold so much it sweeps Tim right off his feet.

Summary
In which Jack and Janet Drake accidentally give seven-year-old Tim a pair of grimoires.
--
Letting the knife go, Jason aimed a fist at the center of the Replacement’s chest. It bounced off like punching a yoga ball. The Replacement shuddered.
“What the fuck is the Scarecrow Braid?” Demanded Jason, heart full of visceral hate.

Summary
Harley knew she had a lot to make up for when she decided to go good guy and join the Batfam, but this dimension-jumping mishap shows how bad she really could have been.
Time to pick up her bat and start beating some sense into some people.
And coming from her, that's saying something.
Or, in which Harley from her own cartoon finds herself in the Arkham games, where she scars the Joker for life, has opinions about her other self, and saves a few Robins, not quite in that order.

Summary
“Sense?! This doesn’t make fucking sense!” Jason repeated, angry, “Gotham has no idea how humans really work and decided on a fucking whim to throw us all together because she didn’t want to lose her toy! We were all just conveniently there and fit into her schemes so she revived us. Well,” he took a deep breath, “I, for one, have no fucking intention of being part of Batman’s emotional support family because the man didn’t manage to take care of himself properly!” He glared at Wayne, who winced slightly but still didn’t say anything.
OR
After Batman dies due to an injury he received on patrol, Gotham is devastated. So, she decides to use some of her power to revive him. Not wanting to lose him a second time, she also analyzes what went wrong and comes to the conclusion that her Bat was lacking the support network most humans have, a so-called ‘family’. Luckily, this is solved easily: She’ll just revive some others in her domain as well, a caretaker and several young humans called ‘children’. They can be her Bat’s family and her Bat can happily continue to fight the rot that has spread through her borders. Perfect!OR OR
Jason would really like to know what the fuck is his life.Series
