Summary
“Shit.”
The soldier didn't startle — it had long been beaten out of him — but he did turn his head curiously.
The small boy wasn't Stevie. Whoever Stevie was. He was as small, and as angry — the soldier could see it twitching under his skin like muscle spasms — but his hair was black and his skin tan. Nothing like Stevie's pale Irish complexion and blonde hair.
“Shit,” the boy said again. “You just took them out. With three punches. Fuck.”
The last person the soldier spoke to had been Captain America. Steve.
And he might have been a brain damaged, amnesiac assassin but even he could figure out that Steve and Stevie were probably the same person.
And that this child was neither.

Summary
Jason wasn't suprised Batman picked the Joker over him. He did it once before, what's one more time? He just wanted to be seen as more important than the monster that took him away, and he was, wasn't he? After all he was Bruce's son once upon a time, or so he thought. Maybe not, it's probably why he wasn't worth saving either time. But if that's true, why is it that Jason is being rescued by someone else?
A story about Jason's journey of healing, and possibly coming to find a place to call home, while wrangling his feelings for his old one.

Summary
Jason Todd dies with a batarang in his throat.
And in the Nothingness of where he wakes up, Death tells a story and offers a choice.
Of course he says yes. The weight of half a universe is nothing to scoff at, and now it lies on him.
No pressure.

Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.
