I actually love this oh my god

My Headcanon Riddled Jason Todd Timeline

Some disclaimers: this is loosely based on canon at best, this is my interpretation of various versions of the same plotline over various forms of media, and I haven't read every single Red Hood appearance so if I miss anything my bad!! Anyways, here's my timeline:

Age 8: Willis Todd is arrested and convicted

Age 10: Catherine Todd od's and passes away. Jason is sent to a boy's home then ends up on the street.

Age 12: Jason tries to steal the wheels of the Batmobile, tries to hit Batman with a tire iron, and is adopted thereafter.

Age 15: The events of the killing joke transpire. Robin tracks a lead to the outskirts of Gotham where Jason is abducted and subsequently dies at the hand of the Joker. Talia finds out and tries to correct the situation via Lazarus Pit dues ex machina. I like what Justice League Dark: Apokolips War added to the Lazarus Pit lore in that if the body is too degraded/too far gone resurrection can cause unexpected side effects. So that being said, Jason is catatonic after being fished out. Talia isn't sure if it was the brain damage sustained pre-mortem or the time elapsed between his death and his resurrection, but she doesn't want to give up on him. Ra's, dissapointed, decides to just have Jason killed in his sleep, only for Jason to absolutely wreck the poor guy tasked with killing him. Similar to the YJ and Lost Days depiction, he's not fully there but still capable of fighting based off of muscle memory alone. Ra's, now slightly less dissapointed, agrees to keep him and have him trained by the League of Assassin's (5 yo Damian and 4 yo Mara enter the chat)

Age 16: Jason slowly regains his consciousness within the year and some change he's in the League. Decides to cut loose and take off once he feels ready to do so. Talia chases him to Gotham. Jason, realizing that nothing has really changed and that he's been replaced, decides that he needs a plan. Talia (trting to stall him from going off the fucking rails) offers to continue his training.

Age 18: Jason goes through two years of his assassin training turned murder world tour like in Lost Days. He feels ready to return to Gotham for real, but Talia has one more teacher for him. Ever since he came out of the pit he has lapses where he kinda... gets punted out of his body. Like his soul occasionally untethered. Talia drops him off with Durca and the All Caste who will teach mortals some basic level soul arts just to make sure nothing evil ever gets the chance to highjack a body and wreak havoc. (I need the All Caste lore to actually be expounded upon at some point istg)

Age 20: Jason spends little over two years with the All Caste and unlocks the All Blades. Still heads to Gotham to try and murder the Joker. The events of UtRH transpire.

After age 20 is just his Outlaw adventures and everything else recent runs have thrown at us. I personally hc him as 23, maybe 24-25 at the oldest (And Dick as 32, Tim 21, and Damian 13 just fyi)

i cannot take jason being a part of whatever's going on in dc k.o. seriously because jason's tactics when he's outmatched are to (1) cheat or (2) run away. he feels zero shame about this. if he had to fight wonder woman he'd just turn around and leave

[queerbatboy]

... and that's why I stick to fanfics and fanarts these days.

Jason gets shot once with a gun with enough punch that it completely pierces his armor on the side, and there is a moment of panic because oh that was definitely his kidney right there, but Jason just keeps going like nothing happened and takes the guy down and then turns around like what are you guys staring at.

And he still doesn't look like he even noticed it.

"Jesus Christ Jason lay down!"

"What? Why?"

"What do you mean what, why? You just got shot!"

"What? Ah, damnit, I hate fixing up these, bullet holes in armor suck"

"Be less worried about bullet holes in your armor and more about bullet holes in you!"

"Relax, it didn't even hit me."

"What?"

And Jason proceeds to strip off his body armor and show that a lot of it is just, you know, armor and padding. His actual bodyline is a lot further in than where his armor makes it look like it is. And he is very confused over why everybody is confused about this because this is the whole fucking point of armor? You know, to shield his actual body? So he doesn't take the brunt of the hits? Oh, what is he even talking about, of course you would be confused, you spandex-wearing weirdoes.

Later they ask him what else is a lie, because apparently Jason is not actually a hulking mass of muscle, and Jason proceeds to take his boots off, and immediately shifts from being 6'2+ to just 6 feet tall.

"Why are you wearing platform combat boots?!"

"I stepped on glass and other shit too many times while wearing those pixie boots! Not anymore! Nothing can get through these soles! Oh and also I like the height."
