(Because I don’t like using ‘reader’ or ‘Y/N’ she shall be called Irene, you can use your name if you want, just find it easier to use a character name.)
—————-
It was a snowy day, you were in a cloak with a very pointy hat, a broom at your side, you were out in your forest practicing fire magic by a river.
“Boom boom!!” You yelled out as explosions after explosions went off, you had an evil look in your eyes, one that makes any sane person run for the hills, you were just about to head back when something floating down the river caught your attention.
“is that a log?” You cover your eyes with your hand and squint, as it got closer your eyes widen in shock and horror.
“Nope that’s that body?!” You screech getting on your broom and flying closer, it looked like a boy around your age, your grab the collar of his shirt and pull him to the rivers edge, and lay him down on his back, you click your fingers and he was dry.
“Please don’t be dead, please don’t be dead…I can’t have another body on my property, people are still asking questions about the first” you check his pulse on his neck, and there it was a faint heartbeat.
“Phew safe” now you knew he was alive, you take a look at him, he looked to be around 15-16, with black hair with a tuft of white in it, and it looked like he was in a suit with a white button up shirt with black pants, and missing a shoe, he looked handsome.
Something else caught your attention, it was marks and bruises that were peeking out from under his shirt, they looked incredibly nasty from what you could see of them.
“Mmh..” he grumbled turning his head a little, he didn’t wake but that was a good sign.
“Alright handsome boy, we’ll get you back to my cottage” you click your fingers and summoned a portal, you grab his collar and drag him like a mother cat with a kitten.
“Aaahhg! Heavy!” You pant and take a moment to breathe, and stretch your back.
“I really wish I knew how to levitate things more heavier than a cup, Alright this isn’t gonna work so” you click your fingers and summon a portal under both of you, you fall into it, and when you emerge, you’re in your cottage.
It was a small cottage with a water wheel attached to it, inside it had a small kitchen with a small stove and a single cupboard, if you walk a couple steps that leads into a lounge with a couple chairs a fire place and a huge book shelf and Candles everywhere, and behind a door was a small bedroom with a double bed. 
“Well now…..how do I get you to the bed?….which sounds really wrong out of context” you blink and drag him through the kitchen and lounge then take a breather as you get to the door, his back was filthy and the white shirt was now many shades of mud and dirt, you opened the door to the bedroom but before lifting him on the bed, you lean him against it.
*click*
You click your fingers and his shirt was now clean, well appears to be, it will need a wash, you look at the bed, and wondering how to get him on it, if you could barely drag him.
“Lift with your knees, mmmhg n-not with your back” you say hooking your arms under his, and grabbing his torso and lifting him up, you managed to get half his body onto the bed but his legs were hanging off, you take of his one shoe and you grab both of his ankles and lift them on with ease, you fall to the floor panting.
“That’s the most amount of movement, I’ve done in a long time” your hat flew off your head onto a coat hanger, as well as your cloak, your broom flew up and started poking your side
“Alright! I’ll get up” you grumbled as you lift your body from the floor and move to check on the boy, his breathing was more even now, but he was cold to the touch, you place your hand over the top of his head and green light shone from it, you healed some of the less serious injuries and numbed some of the pain but it wasn’t perfect.
“I think some warmth and rest will have to do for now, besides the already existing marks. I’ll have to wait till he’s more conscious to ask him about anything else” you place your thick blanket over him tucking him in, you go out the room to your kitchen and fill a metal pot with water and bring it to the fire you place it over the flames on a hook in the fire place, and let it boil, while that was boiling, you go to a cupboard and find your metal bed warmer.
“Okay now, I’ve got to wait for the pot, anything else?” You think about medicine to help but giving him herbs you aren’t sure if he’s allergic to anything, so best to wait till he’s awake, you finally hear the awful high pitched sound from the pot, you grab a think cloth and lift the pot from the hook and pour it into the bed warmer, you grab the long stick and bring it to the bedroom and lift up the mattress placing it under.
“That should warm you up in no time” you take another look at him and place a hand on his forehead, he’s warmed up quite a bit and gotten some of his complexion back.
The sun was setting and now it was nighttime, the boy was still asleep, the fire was still roaring and when the bed warmer got cold you change it, any extra blankets you had, you brought and placed on him, and now you were next to the bed, on the floor with a make shift bed, which had a spare pillow and your summer blanket which didn’t provide much warm but you could sleep, you lay back and close your eyes falling to sleep.
————
It was late at night when the boy sat up in a bed.
“Where am I?” He looked around at the unfamiliar room, he didn’t feel much pain, but maybe he was used to it and just couldn’t feel it anymore, he was surrounded by many blankets with a burnt out candle on a bed side table, his eyes land on a girl on the floor, she was sleeping soundly.
“Who?” He try’s to lifts himself up and out the bed, to analysing her, he sits up but stops, when he hears what sounds like a click, he felt a pressure on his body, forcing him to lay down, the blanket moved on its own to drape over him, and a small candle was lit, it floated over to him, the boy froze and went on his guard, the girl popped her head up and looked at him.
“Finally awake pretty boy” the boy looked at you confused, he looked to the side then back at you
“I’m pretty boy!?” He spat out glaring at you, now awake you could see his green eyes narrow with distrust.
“Yes who else would I be talking about?” You said, He cocked his eyebrow
“Pretty?!” He yelled at you almost insulted, You sigh and place a hand on his forehead, he froze.
“Looks like you’re finally back to normal temperature” you pull away, the boy looked at you watching your every move, you click your fingers and he was free to move again.
“What’s going on? Where am I? Who are you?” He sat up yelling questions after question at you
“Wait, wait hold on!” You hold your hand up
“One at a time, first I found you floating down a river, second your at my cottage and third I’m Irene, I’m a witch” you do a little wave of the hand and sparkles shine around you, the boy just gives you a deadpan look
“A witch?” He asked removing the cover from him and trying to get up, you move to help him and he slaps your hand away.
“Stay away from me!?” He reeled back his face was pale and his eyes were wide, his breathing was uneven, you stop and take a step back
“Sorry…you take your time” you look at him and slowly show your empty hands, and sit down on the floor a bit away from him.
He moves up on the bed, his back hits the headboard, he curled up his body, knees to his chest and arms around them with his face resting on them, he watched you like a hawk, it was silent.
“…..so I’ve told you my name, what’s yours?” He looked at you glaring
“…..Jason” he croaked out
“Jason, that’s a weird name” you chuckle, he looked at you puzzled
“It’s quite a common name actually, Irene’s an old lady name” he gave you a cheeky smirk while saying this
“O-Old lady name?!” You yelled a bit, Jason was still by the headboard, with his knees to his chest, but seemed more calmer than before.
“Yeah old lady name, what are you a meta human and are actually like really old?” Jason moved his head up to ask, you had your back against the wall, giving him a confused look.
“Meta human? Whats that?” You tilt your head confused
“A person with powers” he answered
“Well I’m a witch, born to a witch and warlock, at least I think I am….” You mumble the last bit but shake your head and continue.
“And can do a lot of things with a snap of a finger” you explain snapping your fingers, Jason looked at you intrigued
“Prove it” he move his body so now he’s sitting cross legged.
“Alright what you want to see, explosions? Fireworks?” As you were saying this your hands glowed a deep red, small visions of fireworks appeared, Jason leaned in watching, his mouth was hanging open and he looked like a fish.
“Woah?!!” He blinked as you stopped
“Was that enough to prove I am a witch?” You chuckle and stand up, “can I walk over and sit on the bed?” You stand there and he nods, you move over and sit.
“Are you alright? You where floating down a river when I found you” the moment the words left your mouth he froze blinking confused, he moved a hand to his face as if feeling for something, he then looked down at his clothes
“Did you change me?” He asked suspiciously
“No, you were wearing that when I found you” he nods and looks down at himself confused
“But I’m sure…the suit…Robin..” he started mumbling to himself and you couldn’t quite hear what he was saying
“Jason” he didn’t answer still staring at his hands, so you try again “Jason..” again nothing, so you take a deep breath “Jason!” And yelled, that finally caught his attention and he looked up at you his eyes meeting yours, he looked confused, lost, afraid, angry and strangely lonely
“I gotta get back..” he stood up stumbling a bit
“Where?” You follow after him as he walked to the bedroom door, it was still night time, he walked out into the lounge
“Home, my home at…wait where are we?” He asked looking around your cottage
“My cottage, in the woods” you answer and just followed him, after his panic attack when you tried to touch him, you now keep your hands at your side and just followed, you both reached the fire place which was still burning.
“Where is your cottage located in Gotham?” He stopped turning around looking down at you, eyes blazing with a purpose, the fire illuminated his face but also casting shadows.
“Gotham? I’m afraid I don’t follow?” You had never heard of this place in your life
“Are you stupid or something, Gotham the crime city” he looked at you like you’d grown a second head
“Nope, never heard of it” Jason rubbed his eyes breathing in.
“Have you ever heard of Batman?” He asked almost desperately
“A what man?” It was now your turn to look at him confused, his eyes widen in disbelief, he grabbed your shoulders his face inches away from yours.
“Batman crime fighter of Gotham? Caped Crusader, the dark knight?” He was almost yelling at this point
“I’m sorry no, I don’t know who that is” you said panicked, Jason lets go of you, to take a step away turning around rubbing his forehead blinking, he had his back to you, then he stopped and turned his head looking at you again this time with a fear as he said this
“Robin? Have you ever heard of that?” You nod, and he turned to face you again, he almost looked relieved
“As in the bird right? With the red chest and brown feathers” his shoulders slumped and he looked ready to fall over, you take his hand gently incase he slapped it away again, but when he didn’t you lead him to the chair by the fire and sat him down.
“I’m sorry if I can’t be much help, if it’s information you want I can send a bird?” You ask him and he finally looks up, but not at you, at your cottage he looked around confused
“This is a very old place…” he mumbled out then looked at you again, you gulp not sure of what to do
“Do you have a phone I could borrow?” He asked looking around at the walls and tables.
“A phone? What’s that some kind of item?” You looked at whatever he was looking at in the room trying to understand what he means, he yelled out almost irritated
“Yeah! Phone! To communicate to people around the world, which have one” you blink genuinely trying your best to understand
“I have a messenger bird…” you squeak out, Jason looked at you puzzled
“Your joking right?” He asked with a desperate tone in his voice as he looked at you
“No, I send a bird with a piece of parchment and they bring one back with an answer” you explain as if it was the most normal thing in the world, Jason didn’t know wether to laugh or cry
“Your playing with me right?” He gave a nervous laugh and stood up walking past you to the front door, he was heading outside into the cold snowy night
“What does that mean Jason? What are you talking about?” You yell after him wrapping your arms around yourself running.
“I want to get home! Back to my…father! And your jokes are not funny!” He yelled back
“Jason I don’t understand! Where are you going? there’s nothing but forest all around us?!?!” You ran trying to catch up, he eventually stopped at the river where you found him, he wasn’t wearing any shoes, he looked like a madman running around, he had his back to you
“…..what year is it?” He asked a random question not turning around
“Year what?” You yelled confused as you finally caught up to him
“What year is it now?” He asked again this time with more urgency in his voice
“It’s 1619” he turned his head looking at you with wide eyes and his mouth a gape
“What?…”
