Batkids early adoption au except it all happens in the same night (also Bruce Wayne is an idiot)

Picture this:

Bruce goes to the circus. A tragedy occurs. He starts walking back to his car with a freshly orphaned Dick Grayson clinging to his neck. He gets there only to find...

The tires are gone. All but one, which is in the process of being removed by a scrawny street kid named Jason Todd. The boy runs.

Bruce panics. He obviously can't let this poor, obviously homeless kid run off to get crimed in Crime Alley. Bruce does the only thing he can think of: he throws Dick like a pokeball. It works, sort of. Dick catches the kid, the kid catches a concussion.

Bruce panics harder.

He bundles the kids into the back of his car and hops in the drivers seat. "Hospital," he says to himself, "I can do this. I'm Batman."

"What?" Dick says.

"What?" Jason says.

"What?" Bruce says.

THUMP. They're interrupted by the sound of someone landing bodily on the roof.

Bruce stumbles out of the car to find Tim Drake doing the family guy death pose on top of his $400,000 Mercedes. Above them, a broken fire escape squeaks a threat of more violence. Bruce is distracted by it for only a second, but when he looks back down, Tim is already upright and setting off a camera in his face.

"Hi, Batman!" Tim grins. "I knew it was you."

Bruce blinks away the stars with a sigh and opens the back door again. Tim scrambles off the roof and wanders in.

Bruce now has three childr- wait when did that one get here? Cassandra Cain is wedged into the middle seat between Dick and Jason. She smiles at him sweetly.

"Who-" Bruce begins.

Someone wings a brick at them out of nowhere. Tim narrowly avoids further head trauma only because Bruce's dad reflexes activate in time to bat (ha!) it away. Bruce turns to see a little blonde girl sprinting off. He moves to catch her, but steps on Jason's discarded tire iron; it flips up and nails him in the balls. Stephanie Brown gets away.

Bruce realises, while he's writhing pitifully on the ground, that the car still has no tires.

He calls Alfred for help.

---

Four hours, a hospital visit, a whole lot of paperwork and one long phone call to CPS later, Bruce arrives home with four emergency foster kids in tow.

Talia Al Ghul is sitting in his living room with a baby carrier.

theres a thunderstorm going on right now and im thinking about how the entire todd family is seen as cautionary tales for things that were completely out of their control and to be forever immortalised for it after their deaths. father with bruised knuckles, mother forever in her bed, son of mine now son of his — dead. don't try to save your family and don't try to live because you're rude and violent (edit: and poor) and they said you had it coming. now is that true? well whatever! nothing major, nothing new, another crime alley tragedy, just too ugly for pearls.

why do ppl do drugs when you can just experience the absolute high of meeting someone who isn’t just unhinged about your fandom but is also feral about your otps

One of my favorite Jayroy tropes is Jason who believes no one really knows him under the Big and Strong persona he’s built up, and Roy who breaks down his every wall without him ever noticing. Roy has his own walls, but he busts them down to prove himself to Jason, then goes for his too.

Bruce and Dick watching Jason laugh and smile like he used to (before he died) and looking at Roy like he’s an actual wizard. Roy walks away and Jason’s face hardens into its usual self.

Dick: Marry him.

Roy: What?

Dick: MARRY MY BROTHER. PLEASE. He loves you. He loves you so much.

Roy: O…kay.

Bruce Wayne receives one moment of genuine parental joy and pride toward a child, and Jason, no less.

He’s watching him with Roy and Lian, stalking checking in on them, just a short scene of domestic bliss, just some mundane shopping trip and ice cream, a normal day.

Bruce thinks about how one of his children is finally happy and a bit extra glad that he finally has a grandchild

(he has so many kids and Lian is the only grandchild in sight. Hm.)

Jason lifts the girl onto his shoulders like second nature, grimacing only slightly when ice cream-sticky fingers hold onto him for support.

Roy reaches for a few of the shopping bags Jason holds and in stubbornness he transfers them all to one and laces their fingers instead.

Roy scoffs something, and there’s happiness. All Bruce really wants for his kids somehow.

He’s about to leave, satisfied in his mission, and Jason notices him at the last second.

An eyebrow raise, a smirk realizing there’s no urgency to the appearance of his father in the shadows. His grip squeezes Roy absentmindedly.

And then it hits him.

Jason’s final “fuck you”.

One he can’t even fight, or argue,

That will drive him to drink himself to death and Alfred to plan his final funeral.

Despite all his wishes, everything he has ever done, planned or hoped for, the worst has come, right beneath his nose.

Oliver Queen, is now his in-law.

Roy’s connection may have been just by coincidence to Jason’s feelings, but damn if they didn’t fuel the fire just a bit, have fun, old man.

missing them...

There is actually a fic sorta like this! A Father Knows by wishonthemoon

Hot Boy Willis Todd you will always be famous!!! (Pretty Jason i love you)

Also I will not let people forget that Willis had only non-violent offenses and was jailed ultimately to take the fall for Two-Face.

Loving father Willis Todd is canon. He loved that boy with all his heart, wrote him letters and wanted the best for him.

I just know that's who Jason considers his father, because for all this past offences, Willis would not stand for anyone hurting his little boy.

My personal lil AU is when jason comes back, and he's building his crew, Willis is alive and out, and hears good things about RH so he goes, hoping to work books or logistics and when RH sees him, he freezes. And then pulls him aside and reveals himself or sumn and Willis just takes him into his arms. I have no direction for this in my head besides Jason getting a supportive Willis back in the throws of his post-resurrection pain

-🪼

GOD DUDE I FUCKING WISH THATS HOW IT HAPPENED.

Bc in CANON? Jason had no clue Willis was alive. AND THEY DIRECTLY INTERACTED. prince of Gotham era aoughhhhhhh.

Jason doesn’t know Willis lived, but he also doesn’t know Willis DIED again. You know who does? FUCKING BRUCE. AND HE DIDNT TELL JASON

Star Sapphire Jason Todd | Found Family | Magical Jason Todd | JayKyle

Summary:

Well, this was not how plan ‘Zorro’ was supposed to play out but Jason Todd; former Street Rat™ was—if anything—resourceful and he prided himself on knowing how to roll with the punches. That being said, if someone had the guts to walk up to him a month ago and tell him he’d be spending his free time trotting around in thigh-high hot pink gogo boots and using the power of love to beat crooks into the ground like he was in some fucked up episode of Sailor Moon… he would’ve broken no-contact with Batsy to make sure whatever lunatic that was narrating their weird fetishes to the Red Hood would get a cell in Arkaham with their name permanently etched on it. - Or, the story of how Jason Todd; former crime lord turned Magical Girl learns how to accept love, help, and himself. Probably not in that order and definitely not without a fight.
