Summary
He starts digging through the tightly-packed dirt, nails bending, fingers trembling.
He digs and digs and digs, until his hands are more wound than flesh, his fingernails mostly-gone, until he sticks a hand through the dirt and feels water on his open wounds and cries out in pain, in relief, in hope and hope and God.
He kicks his feet. He clamps his hand hard and steady against soaked dirt-grass.
He claws.
He claws, and he gets the fuck up and out of his own damn grave.
or; Jason wakes up after dying and his life only gets more complicated—Gotham is still in the shit, Joker is still alive, there's a new Robin, and the world is changed and he needs to change with it, train to meet up with its new expectations.
