'The familiar feelings of betrayal and fear. Some things never change.' - full title of the piece. I think its a little sad that the most important part to his character is his death. To be known mainly for having died is an interesting- kind of unique way a character can exist (atleast in comics) imo
Details I included in the piece are below <3
Some subtle details i included are like, uh… The lineart for Jason is red, the color of anger. Facing betrayal once again from a parental figure mounting fury. The color of the lineart of Jaybin is- well it’s brown but it’s yellow hued. Yellow, the color of fear. He was so young, yes he was probably angry but he was scared. Both of them are angry and scared for sure. But some more than the other :3 I also chose red for the lighting of Jason cuz redhood- betrayal, etc I fear the green for Jaybin is a lil obvious. Not only it being joker but the eventual lazarus pit. bruised and bloodied knuckles on Jaybin. He fought (idk exactly how it went in the comics but don’t touch me.) maybe punched at the door or smthin trying to get out. tried to include the outfits from the comics they were in, Jaybin is missing his gloves because i fucking FORGOT but i liked his hands too much anyways.. I wasn’t going to put the gun in at first but after glancing at the panel for a bit i was like ‘eh sure. why not.’ since Jason had a gun beside him as he collapsed. Oh and their eyes are basically lined up <3
headcanon that Bruce is worried about his kids who don’t live with them and who he no longer gives an allowance to. Specifically Dick and Jason. But they’re too proud and “self-sufficient” to ever accept any money Bruce tries to give them,,,,,, so Bruce gets . . . creative.

Modern Batman comics talking about when Jason Todd was Robin: He was brutal. Unstable. I should've seen the signs... done a better job of training him... raising him...
When Jason Todd was actually Robin:
I noticed i always draw Jason with spiky hair whenever he has bed hair even though i head canon him to have his hair covering his forehead. And i always draw the white streak to be spiky lol
I wonder how it’d go if he didn’t have time to style it before patrol
It was an accident :(((
Ghost Jay and Bruce - Ghost Jay witnessing how fucked up Bruce got after his death. And accepting how people move on (or as they seem to).
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 of Ghost Jason series
Jason: yo, whatcha doin’? Damian: *arms crossed, glaring out the window* Father forbade me from moving out Jason: well you are like fiv— Damian: is this not called the land of the free? Jason: Damian: how can I be free, held within these walls like a canary in a coal mine? Forbidden from spreading my wings? Jason: bro you ain’t even in middle school yet, turn off the teenage angst and have one of the cookies I brought you Damian: *huffs and petulantly accepts the cookie* Jason: why’d’ya even wanna move out anyway? Damian: Jason: Damian: . . . Father said he would not allow me to house a tiger here, which I find unacceptable Jason: Jason: you. Have a tiger? Damian: *frowning* have I not mentioned this before? You must have seen her during your time in the League, Akhi. She was but a cub then Jason: KID, YOU KNOW I WAS HIGH AS A KITE ON GREEN ANGER JUICE WHILE I WAS RHERE. THE ONLY THINGS I CARED ABOUT WERE YOU, THAT ONE DESSERT MADE IN THE KITCHENS WITH RICE, AND THE EXTREMELY ENTICING IDEA OF BURNING THIS MANOR TO THE GROUND. YOU KNOW MY MEMORY OF THAT TIME IS SPOTTIER THAN DICK’S ABILITY TO ACCEPT PHONE CALLS. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WOULD REMEMBER A FUCKIN CAT? I AINT EVEN A CAT PERSON Damian: *arches brow* really? You were the one to help me bottle feed her. She slept in your lap most nights. Jason: Jason: this is manipulation Damian: 🥺 Jason: Jason: fine. She can stay at my house. But you’re explaining this to Dickie.
Red hood: *picks up ringing phone in middle of meeting* what’s u— *pauses* goons: *lean in to listen* hood: wait, what?? Alfie’s gone for the—fuck, don’t tell me you—fuck. You did. You went in the kitchen. You idiot! Why would you do that? You—fucking fuck, dick, macaroons?? Of all the things you could make him, why did you chose the LITERAL HARDEST thing we have ingredients for, I—fucking hell. goons: *exchange confused glances* hood: *gets up out of chair in apparent outrage* wait there. Don’t touch a single goddamned thing, you hear me? Wait for—*large crashing sound on other side of phone* hood: *facepalming* did you . . . Just . . . Break the fucking mixer??? hood: sit your asses down. I’ll be there in five. If I get there and you touched one more fucking thing in the kitchen I will have you out of the manor. Apparently you need fucking parental supervision. goons: *watch in confusion as the crime boss walks out*
Jason: Y'know, I was actually a ghost for a while before I was revived
Dick: *eye twitching* Is that so?
Jason: *smirking* Yeah.
Dick: That's so- interesting! I'll be right back! *slams the bathroom door in his face*
Dick, whisper screaming into his phone: LESLIE, I DON'T NEED THE ANTIPSYCHOTICS, I WASN'T HALLUCINATING JASON THAT WAS GENUINELY JUST HIS GHOST-
Jason, who only ever haunted Dick a couple days because he realized that Dick didn't seem to care about his death and thought Dick was only upset because Jason might've seen something embarrassing about him as a ghost: ?!?!?
