Summary
CRASH!
Jason bared his teeth in a lackluster impression of a real alpha’s snarl. Their situation was hopeless and he couldn’t help but curse whatever deity had decided that today would be the day to destroy his pathetic life even more than it already was.
The looming shadow of an alpha much larger than himself came closer, hands raised as if he thought Jason was stupid enough to believe that he was coming in peace. He’d heard enough living on the streets, to know that an adult alpha only ever wanted one thing from an omega, no matter how small. And Jason was so much smaller than his opponent, hell, he was practically still a pub himself.
But he had to try—there was no winning but he couldn’t lose. The cowering omega behind him depended on him, on winning this fight. And Jason was many things, but first and foremost, he was a protector—at least he tried to be.
And to think the day had started out so well…

Summary
Tim always carried pepper spray with him — always. Living in a city like Gotham, that was practically a given.
It was especially necessary when one was ten years old and currently sneaking around in the shadows of the night.
Something touched his shoulder, and on reflex, Tim pulls the trigger, before he can catch sight of green pixie boots.
Oh no!
“Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry Mister Robin, Sir! Are you all right?”
“What the fu- I mean frick, kid?”
—
It’s almost eerie how much these nights mirror each other. Only this time Tim’s pepper spray is joined by a knife.
But it’s not Robin he attacks this time, it’s a weird guy in a red helmet, and the spray can do nothing against that!
Tim is sure he’s never seen helmet-guy before, so why does he know Tim’s name and insists on helping him out?
Or: Tim goes out at night to take photos of the Bat’s. Twice, he meets Jason. Only once, is it Robin. But Jason’s suddenly two feet taller and wearing a red helmet. Something’s clearly wrong here.
