Sorry if it doesnt make sense, i'm high off pain meds writing this bc i'm BORED.
The first time I saw Jason Todd, he was nothing to me Just another boy in my fatherās estate, covered in dirt, hands rough from labor, his bruised knuckles proof of a fight he hadnāt won. His blue eyes were sharp, full of something wild, something untamed, something that made you bristle, the kind of fire you knew to stay away from, even at 12 years old.
The first time I spoke to Jason Todd, two years after I saw him, I thought he was filth.
He was a boy covered in dirt, his hands stained with mud and the smell of horses, his knuckles raw from a fight he clearly hadnāt won. His face was sharp, bruised, skinny and too wild for someone who worked under my fatherās name. He was nothing, just another street rat lucky enough to be given work in my fatherās stables, another nameless stray that old Mr. Wilkes had dragged in from the gutters of Gotham. He smelled like sweat, hay, and something sharp, something angry.
I was fourteen years old and wore pearls around my throat, a silk dress with delicate lace at the sleeves. My fatherās estate stretched over rolling green fields, our mansion standing tall like something out of a dream. My motherās hands were soft, her perfume sweet, and I had never known hunger or want. My world was a world of glittering lights and expensive champagne, of high society and grand parties, of people who smiled with their teeth but whispered behind painted fans.
Jason Todd did not belong in my world.
Yet, somehow, he slipped in like a stain on silk.
We met on the back steps of the estate, where the stable boys cut through to the gardens. I was waiting for my automobile when he nearly ran into me, boots dragging dust over my polished shoes.
Jason Todd? He was filth beneath my shoes.
Or at least, thatās what I told myself.
Because the first time I met him, he nearly ran into me.
He didnāt bow like other servants did, he didnāt apologize profusely and beg for forgiveness.
He barely even looked at me before muttering, āWatch it,ā like I was in his way.
I had never been spoken to like that in my life.
I hated him immediately.
I took a startled step back, wrinkling my nose at the smell of sweat, hay, and horse.
The nerve.
I straightened my back like Daddy told me to when I wanted to look serious and I tilted my chin up as I stared down at him. "Excuse me?"
Jason smirked, slow and lazy, eyes glinting with amusement. "Did I stutter?"
I had never wanted to slap someone so badly.
Instead, I remember turning and walked away, forgetting my plans of going into town, heels clicking sharply against the stone, vowing to never look at him again and to hate him forever, no matter how handsome he was,.
That vow didnāt last long, especially when he took off his shirt.
Jason was everywhere.
I saw him at the stables, his shirtless back slick with sweat, muscles shifting under tanned skin as he worked. I saw him sneaking apples from the kitchen, disappearing into the trees, laughter on his lips. I saw him in the streets, fists flying, always coming back with fresh bruises, always alive in a way no one else was.
And then, you heard about him.
"That stable boy got into another fight," the maids whispered. "Damn near killed the other boy, apparently the other kid got smart about his lady."
At the time, I thought the strange burning feeling in my gut was disgust at even hearing Jason's name. Now I know, what I felt was pure jealousy, not knowing the 'lady' Jason nearly killed a boy over was me.
"Heās trouble," my mother warned when I asked about him at dinner. "Keep away from him, sweetheart."
"He wonāt last long here," my mother sighed. "That kind of boy never does, no matter how much of a soft spot your father has for him."
My father pitied Jason, told me I oughta be nicer to him like I am to the other workers (he would regret that statement soon.)
He had no one. No mother, no father, no family, nothing but the clothes on his back and determination. He had what my father called "the look of a man who'd rather die than fail" and my father respected that.
But Jason did last.
I hated him.
Hated the way he smirked at me from across the gardens, like he knew something I didnāt.
I hated the way he never bowed, never apologized, never treated me like the others did.
I hated that when I was alone, when my fatherās friends spoke about marrying me off to the sons of their business partners, I thought of Jason Todd instead.
The first conversation I had with Jason Todd was after I had fought with my father.
It was about marriage. About duty. About a boy I didnāt love.
I ran into the garden dramatically ignoring my father's desperate calls, pearls at my throat, tears in my eyes.
And Jason was already there.
Sprawled under an oak tree, cigarette between his lips, watching me like heād been waiting for this moment all his life.
"You rich girls cry over the dumbest shit," he muttered.
I whipped around. "What did you just say to me?" How dare he speak to me like I was any other girl, like this wasn't my home, like he didn't work for my father.
Jason pushed himself up, boots kicking up dirt as he smirked. "You ever go to bed hungry?"
My breath caught. He had a point, you were privileged.
"Ever steal to survive?" His voice was low, teasing, sharp. "Ever wake up in the morning and wonder if youāll still have a roof over your head by sundown?"
I didnāt answer, for the first time in years I felt something close to shame.
Jason tilted his head, his eyes gleaming with resentment. "Didnāt think so, princess."
I hated him. He made me feel childish. He humbled me. He burst my perfect bubble.
And I loved him for it.
I loved him for making you feel something real.
And that was the beginning of everything.
I loved Jason Todd.
I loved him when he me you out of the house at midnight and made me ride my horse bareback through the fields.
I loved him when he knocked the rich boy who called me a tease's teeth out.
I loved him when he threw pebbles at my window on the third floor and scaled the walls to my balcony.
I loved him when he kissed me for the first time at 14 under the summer stars, hands gripping my waist, mouth desperate against mine.
"Youāre my Jason, my Jaybird," I whispered against his lips. Corny, but nothing felt better to say, especially when I saw his face.
Jason smiled like I had given him the whole damn world.
And he? He was my whole world.
When Jason was seventeen and I was fifteen, he walked into my fatherās grand house, dressed in his best suit, nervous but determined and proud, his hands clean for once, his boots polished.
He asked my father for my hand in marriage. He asked my father for my hand and I thought he would say yes. Daddy always thought he was a hard worker, called him a real good sport.
He stood before my father and said, āI love her, sir. Iāll make her happy. Give me a chance. I ain't got much now, but one day I will. I'll give her what she's got and more.ā
My father just laughed.
āBoy,ā he said, shaking his head, āsheās not meant for men like you.ā
Jason left that night, whispering a promise against my skin.
"Iāll come back for you, I'll be great. Be a man like how your daddy wants, rich and proper, he'll have to say yes."
I waited, god knows I did.
I wrote letters to the last address he gave me every single day.
For five years. Till I turned twenty. I never looked at another man, I had my Jason.
I waited for him to reply, fought off suitors and pressure from my mother. I waited for a reply, that he was coming soon, that he missed me.
I waited.
And my Jaybird never came back.
My father loved me.
He regretted turning Jason away five years later, when I still refused to marry. He never forced me to marry, not even when the years passed and my suitors grew frustrated with my refusals.
He saw my misery, my longing and admitted, āI shouldāve said yes. I shouldāve let you have him.ā
He thought my Jason was a passing infatuation, he wondered what people would say about his daughter marrying the stable boy.
He wished he saw my love for Jason sooner.
But love wasnāt enough to keep the debt collectors away.
I knew something was wrong when my father began to look stressed, when my parents began to argue, and when I heard my mother cry herself to sleep after selling her favorite pearls.
My father was going to loose everything all at once.
The steel business wasn't what it used to be.
And then suddenly, Bruce Wayne arrived like a knight in shining armor.
He was older than me, 18 years my senior. Refined, powerful, and dangerously charming.
And most importantly, rich. He was exactly what I needed to stop my family's fall from grace.
Bruce courted me like a gentleman.
He sent roses every morning, took me to the finest restaurants, whispered in my ear about a future where I would never want for anything again.
He was patient.
He never forced me to love him.
He only asked for one thing.
"Let me take care of you."
I kept Bruce waiting for three months. All I could do was think of Jason. I knew he was not returning, that he either was dead or found some other pretty girl to make promises to.
I told myself love was not enough to fill an empty stomach and keep my parents happy like they did for me.
I told myself that Jason Todd was not coming back to save me, yet each morning I woke up waiting for a letter or pebbles thrown at my window.
After four months of courting, I decided.
And at twenty, I became Mrs. Bruce Wayne.
Jason Todd never sent me a single letter, but I still dreamed of my Jaybird even as I looked at the massive ring on my finger.
OKKKKK SO WHAT YA'LL THINK??? CONTINUE OR DELETE??? FLOP OR BOP? SEND IN ASKS!!!! I MISS YALL! THIS IS MY FIRST TIME WRITING ROMANCE W JASON AND BRUCE. I REALLY LIKE THIS AU!!!! WHAT DO YALL THINK IS GONNA HAPPEN? SORRU IF IT SUCKS OR DOESNT MAKE SENSE, I'M SO HIGH BRO.
BE NICE PLEASE, I'M IN PAIN! THIS IS NOT EDITED OR PROOF READ.
Hello again, Iām the anon that suggested a potential mash up of your older reader au and I forgot to mention I loved how you wrote slade here!
I grew up with teen titans so o got to see first hand how scary he can get when he wants to manipulate someone!
yay thank youuuuu! iām still a new writer so itās ny first time writing a character like slade and a story like that. IBLD is my 1st ever attempt at ff š
Being mostly unloved your whole life with out much attention from people around you š¤ loving obsessive yandere characters
Pls take precautions like saving it to gg docs first ;-; I miss reading a good ff :c
awww thank you!!
In the new chapter I see a little bit of parallels between reader and Bruce's persona. Also got reminded of Tyler the creator Like him.
DO I LOOK LIKE HIM!
Anyway amazing chapter like always and always catch me in a choke holdššššššš
YUPPP BRUCE AND READER ARE SO ālike himāCODED ITS INSANE!!! and iām glad you can see it! thank you šš«¶
Hi! I love your work and i'm very invested in seeing how it all plays out.
I was wondering if there may be a second part of Older?
Yes!! there will be! i made a prologue, itās called āmillion dollar manā itās probably one of my 1st posts rn!!!
Daemon is Aemond's crush or a person who he's inspired by, and you can't convince me otherwise! If they weren't enemies, they would be an unstoppable duo. I believe Aemond would be Daemon's favorite nephew.
All the pics are from Pinterest.
When I complain about the tv show characters and people say : ā well there book characters did this and this and thatā
let me tell you I donāt give a fuck. Okay. I donāt care that they were cruel, that Alicent was beefing with a child and was plotting, I donāt care that Rhaenyra was a spoil brat that didnāt know the first thing about ruling or that Aemond was more cruel in the book. I donāt care! I liked them because they were good characters with intrigue not because they were good people with integrity and honor and morals. I just want some interesting characters.
I cannot stand little finger but I liked him as a character because he is well written. Like why would I expect Ned Starks in different fonts all over Westeros.
Like Iām not reading characters from this world expecting moral people that carry the same beliefs as modern world. I donāt expect characters that act like theyāre from our time. And thatās why I donāt like or just donāt care for the characters of Hotd because theyāre poorly written flimsy self insert.
Woke up from a dead sleep thinking about this lmao so sorry if it's wonky lmao
What of Tiffany had some freaky shit going on to explain how the batfam almost immediately trusted her and stuff?
Like some pheromones or whatnot that didn't brain wash them per say but acted on the feeling they already had for reader (disinterest, annoyance, hatred, etc) or just plays on their negative feelings for us and when Tiffany reveals that no she didn't make them treat reader the way they did they did that out of their own feelings for them, it totally messes them up w guilt or self hatred or whatever so they cant do the typical oh we always cared or something idk .
Like nah batfam that bitch didn't make you treat us that way, but showed us exactly how you felt about us clearly and that helps us dip out lol.
Sorry if it don't make sense and that it's so long lmao love your writing btw
BROOOO ISTG I HATE TUMBLRRRRR!!! I THOUGHT I REPLIED TO UR ASK I'M SO SORRY! I LITERALLY REMEMBER REPLYING OMG.
and yes!!! ur so on track for the tiffany thing! i think i mightve already gone into it in a chapter bc this is a kinda old ask! anyway, sorry again! ya'll if u sent in an ask and I havent replied, it's probably bc I didn't get it or I thought I sent in thr reply! if u want, just send in the ask again!!!
