Bothering the beast
after the whole reconciliation with jason thing, dick quickly learns that he just CANNOT say certain things around him anymore, ex:
"god it would make things so much easier if _____ just died"
(2 hours later jason comes back and drops an inconspicuous "i don't think _____ will cause you trouble anymore)
or
"i wish someone would knock some sense into _____"
dick, patrolling later on realises, that particular person hasn't caused any trouble around the city for a few days, and asks jason about it, to which he gets a:
"oh i got some goons to go issue him a 'warning'."
watched a compilation of Hiccup waving his hands around
AU where basically instead of Pixal getting dismantled and has her consciousness uploaded into Zane, it's the other way around
sooo basically main role Pix till Zane somehow gets a new body
also she gets his ice powers by default
So I was thinking Jason kills he is one of the few members who are constantly breaking Bruce's code and if I had an older sibling or younger who is just constantly getting away with murder.
Who you gonna call Jason fucking Todd.
Dick gets a little too pissed off one night and kills a human trafficker. Hey little wing need a bit of a favor. Nevermind one night after too many nightmares calls him up and tells him all about Blockbuster. Jason's kill count is up by one and he's damn proud.
Now Tim can hide his own bodies he doesn't need help but it makes for good brotherly bonding. Soon they have a whole secret cemetery filled with League assassins. And if one night Tim decides as a show of good faith to gift a duffle bag with a clowns head that's no one's business.
Damian on the other hand doesn't even try like the annoying little brother he is drops heads at Jason's safe house. Will just even text him coordinates and tell him good luck. How he hides from Bruce, Jason has no idea. He even on occasion will kill people Jason was looking for and will bring them like a proud cat presenting a mouse.
None of the other bat kids ever do it Cass refuses to kill and sticks to it Duke keeps his options open but never needs his help.
On one hand he finds it annoying but in the deepest parts of him his brothers trust him enough with their dirty secrets, they lay their shame and anger at his door.
They trust him to guard their back and he never thought he would have that. So the next time a stupid bird calls he grabs his guns, then his shovels and walks out the door.
