I do want to see Jason ranting to Ember and Kitty. I’m curious 🧐
Let's see what I can do!
This would be once Jason is a bit more comfortable giving details about his previous life.
Jason, Ember and Kitty are relaxing in Ember's haunt. There's ban posters, both for living and dead bands, splashed across her walls. Instruments of all types fill the space, and the three are spread out on various pillows. Jason is painstakingly painting Ember's nails while Kitty paints his toenails bright red. There's several cartons of open ice cream in between them and a TV is playing a reality show in the background that none of them are watching.
"And then! The dirtbag just fucking trips and falls off the balcony!" Jason told the girls, pulling his hands carefully back so he doesn't mess up Ember's nails while he gesticulates wildly to punctuate his point.
"Good riddance, scum like that deserves it." Kitty said decisively, pulling back to access her work.
"I woulda pushed him, had it been me." Ember said with a shrug.
Jason pointed at her, "right?! I wish I had! But I didn't and B-" Jason's face twisted in pain, and he swallowed harshly. "Batman thought I actually did. He benched me for it." Jason finished with a mutter, all righteous anger gone and replaced with pain.
Ember and Kitty shared a singular look. Ember's hair flared, the flames igniting and blooming in a pillar of ferocity. Kitty's features twisted, fangs lengthening and eyes glowing.
"He benched you? Because some jackass piece of shit offed himself?" Kitty demanded, voice rising in pitch.
Jason looked up and blinked, skin flushing at the anger so obvious on the two women's faces. Anger for him, not at him. "Uh. Yeah, he thought I did it."
Ember huffed, standing up, her half finished nails wrapping around her forearms as if to hold herself back as she stomped across her floor, kicking spare clothes and pillows out of her way.
"That asshole! What a dick move, honestly." Ember growled out, flames snapping behind her.
"We should beat the snot out of him!" Kitty raged.
"We should burst his eardrums!"
"We could haunt his house and hide all his left shoes!"
"We could– his shoes? Seriously Kitty?"
"What? How would you feel if someone stole all your left shoes?"
"Alright, fine. Fair. We could burn his house down too,"
Kitty and Ember fed off of one another, coming up with new creative ways to get revenge on Bruce on Jason's behalf. It all ended when Jason fell over, laughing so hard at the thought of Bruce being vengefully haunted by the two ghosts.
He might have been crying too, but that's what the (slightly melted now) ice cream was for.
Kitty and Ember shared a smile once Jason finally fell asleep. Kitty gently rubbing away tear tracks and Ember pulling a blanket over him. They had been mad, yes, but they had been more angered over the pure hurt they'd felt pouring from Jason like a river. They were just glad they could alleviate it, even a little.
Anyways, the girls are very protective of Jason. And they weren't entirely kidding about haunting the shit out of Batman. Not because of what he did exactly, but because of the fact he hurt Jason. Also, they don't really see what the big deal is with some random schmuck dying. So what? So they understand Bruce's POV even less.
