Summary
Bruce was on his way back to the Manor when he got into an accident. He thought he had meant his end, because surely him hallucinating due to his injuries is more possible than Jason truly coming back from the dead.
And for Jason's part--this wasn't supposed how his 'resurrection' is supposed to be.
Yet, here they both are - father and son, finally united at least.
--
A/N: Set before the second act of Under the Red Hood so Bruce and Jason hadn't confronted each other yet, and Bruce didn't know that Jason was still alive.

Jason says Bruce never avenged him. Tim remembers otherwise — vividly. Like the time Bruce skinned a guy with a Batarang for insulting his dead son, or when Superman had to body-block Batman from turning Joker into roadkill.
Or. At a JL meeting Jason starts to complain again, Tim had enough. At least he's not the only one that remembers grieving Bruce.

Summary
Bruce frowned, his anger temporarily tempered by the allure of the mystery. “But she's reeking havoc on the city. She's killed hundreds at this point. And why is so focused on getting us to help Red Hood?”
“Because… it's Jason Todd.” Tim muttered.
Bruce's lip twisted. “That's enough. Get out of your uniform, and get out of the cave. I can't listen to any more of this.”
“Bruce. Seriously.”
“Jason would never attack me like this. Jason knew…” his voice cracked. “He knew I loved him.”
....

Summary
Red Hood has three rules:
1. No team-ups.
2. No feelings.
3. Absolutely no calling Batman.
But when a new drug leaves him hallucinating his own death, Jason breaks all three—and the Justice League’s collective sanity—with one accidental “Dad.” Now Bruce is speed-running Gotham’s traffic laws, Dick is taking bets on the League’s reactions, and Jason? He’s just praying the Pit takes him now.Series

Summary
title from “All I Need” by Radiohead
Bruce parked the car, hesitating for a moment before opening the door and stepping out. His gloves were covered in blood, his suit stained crimson.
The ash from the explosion littered his body, burns penetrating his armor.
He walked slowly down the narrow path to the computer, in his hands, a tattered and folded costume.
The red and yellow fabric was torn, ripped apart by shrapnel and burned by raging flames. The red “R” was still visible, though ashen, as blood seeped through each seam.
or
Bruce returns to the Batcave directly after Jason Todd’s death, taking a moment to grieve.

Summary
Bruce Wayne hallucinates Jason sometimes. It happens in his worst moments — when fear toxin rushes through his veins, when battle overwhelms his senses, when the weight of the world feels too heavy on his shoulders. But he never expected to hallucinate Jason in his office, not when he thought his mind had stopped playing those cruel tricks. Yet, there Jason was, or at least the version Bruce's broken mind conjured. And Bruce couldn’t help but feel that familiar ache in his chest — a pain etched deep into his very soul. "Do you want to play with me, B?" his son asked. Bruce simply nodded, watching his little boy stand beside him, if only for a minute.

Summary
As Jason plots his revenge on Bruce, he puts together a detailed schedule of his day-to-day activities, which is always consistent, until one day he deviates. Following him, Jason discovers him standing in the cemetery, speaking to his grave.
---“I...haven't visited recently,” he remarked softly. “I’m sorry.” Jason’s eyes narrowed in confusion, hearing not only his apology, but the gentle tone of it. Bruce’s thumb swiped in circles around the leather cover of the book he held firmly in his hands. “I was going to, like usual,” he confessed. “But I- I called Tim by your name, again."
Again? Jason could feel his heart thudding a little harder as he leaned closer, trying to hear his father’s words, which were quiet, clearly meant and thought to be private between him and the dead.
“Alfred rebuked me for it and said I needed to try to move on,” he added, pausing to swallow the lump in his throat. “I don’t think Alfred’s ever lost his son, though, because if he had, he would know I can’t.”

Summary
Jason Todd doesn't just see the dead—he fights for them. Since his resurrection, he’s realized the Bat’s mission is flawed. Bruce’s rigid morality left Jason to rot, and Gotham’s endless cycle of violence proves Batman’s methods don’t work. Jason embraces his role as the Red Hood, carving out his own justice in Crime Alley.
But when the spirits of Gotham’s victims begin crying out for vengeance, Jason discovers the truth: Gotham itself is haunted. A supernatural force tied to the city’s bloody history is feeding on its suffering, and Batman—unwilling to address Gotham's darkness at its core—has only made things worse. Jason must step up, not to save Gotham, but to destroy the very foundation of Batman’s legacy.
