Burritos and Sex

Jason Todd groggily awoke to the sound of relentless knocking at his front door. Too tired to bother with getting dressed, he opted to throw on the bare minimum before shuffling to the entrance.

When he swung the door open, he was met with a sight that jolted him further awake: Rose stood there in jeans and a T-shirt, a bag of breakfast burritos in hand. The unexpected sight of Jason barely dressed nearly made her drop the bag of food.

Rose (eager): Good morning!

Jason (yawning): Not really.

Rose (flirtatiously): You are rocking the Calvin Kleins.

Jason looked at his worn boxer-briefs.

Jason (shrugging): They're old, but thanks.

Rose (eyeing Jason's body): Man... I feel overdressed.

Jason (sincere): You look nice though.

Rose sighed, feeling warmth spread through her despite it being fall. Jason yawned, still exhausted from last night’s mission.

Jason (looking at the bag in her hand): You brought me breakfast?

Rose: Yeah, we can eat in 20 minutes.

Rose stepped into Jason's apartment, shutting the door firmly before he could say a word.

---------------------------------------

Twenty minutes later, Rose emerged from Jason's bedroom clad in one of his sweatshirts, with just her underwear underneath. She stretched, a satisfied grin on her face.

Rose: Whew, what a way to start a morning.

Jason stumbled out of his room, gripping the doorway with one hand, looking both flustered and content.

Jason: Yep, I’m awake.

Rose laughed softly, tossing him a breakfast burrito.

Rose: I swear, you doing that with your tongue twirling—damn.

Jason blushed, scratching the back of his head.

Jason: I had time to practice.

Rose: By the way, I literally just came over for breakfast, but then you opened the door in those boxer briefs, six-pack and all, looking tired.

Jason: Whatever reason you had for coming over is fine by me—I definitely needed that wake-up call.

Jason took a bite of his burrito as Rose leaned in and kissed him on the cheek.

Rose: I’m keeping this sweatshirt.

Jason: Oh come on, that was a gift!

Rose feigned innocence, a playful smile on her lips.

Rose: Aww, thanks for the gift.

Jason: You’re lucky you’re cute and really good at what you did in there.

Rose smirked, playfully teasing.

Rose: I had some help.

They shared a quick kiss, then made their way to the couch, ready to enjoy their morning burritos on a relaxing day off.

I really love Jason and Rose's dynamic (mostly delusion but their vibe is so clear to me) and so this is my fanfic's canon:

Rose is the kindest to Jason but she is nasty. I don't think there is anybody else she'd be this kind and thoughtful towards (there isn't.) She finds him to be good, like actually good inside. Not the bs good, but what he's made of is just good stuff. And she gets him. She loves how he thinks but she also thinks he's delusional. It makes her envious.

Jason is most lenient towards Rose. He will assume the best about her and let her 'get away' with anything as long as he believes her motives. Even for random stuff like when she is calling him smth nasty, i don't think he takes it to heart bc he gets her somehow. She gets so many passes. He thinks she's not as cynical as she thinks she is.

I don't know how else to explain it. To me, they are twin flames, they are those people that are always in their little world when together even in public, they are silently sitting next to eachother for hours, they stalk eachother all the time but it's relaxing for them (Rose absolutely needs Jason enrichment), they meet at weird conjunctions throughout their lives, provide exceptional honesty (they're stockpiling; they won't be this honest again for at least a few years but its ok when together bc they don't see eachother anyway and the other just *gets it*) and insight to eachother, leave a mark on one another and then stalk eachother at your lowest for a a year or two until you meet again.

Eventually I'll snap the taut rope. But I just love them! They get eachother like no one else could !!!

Jason: You okay?

Rose: I'm more than okay. You couldn't hear how "okay" I was? I thought you bats were detectives.

Jason: Hi, I'm Jason Todd, and I do everything twice.

Rose: Including die?

Jason: Especially that.

It's been months and I just realized I never posted this here.

Blame it on the beach (grown men don't cry) by me. A jayrose post Gotham War fic where Jason tries to deal with the consequences of his new health state, Rose is there to hold him together.

[roseworth]

Wait, I’m confused do you or do you not ship Jayrose?

short answer: usually no but ill ship it when its funny

long answer:

most of the reason i dont personally like it is because i see rose as a lesbian and i dont enjoy any ships of her with men (its fine if other people do! its just not my thing), plus i hc jason as aroace so im also not very interested in jason ships unless im in a very specific mood (the "specific mood" being jaykyle lmao. every few months i get really obsessed with jaykyle for a few days then i forget about it for the next few months. then the cycle repeats)

another reason i dont like it is that i am constantly in fear of rose becoming Jason's Girlfriend in comics and online. like how babs and kory are both seen as Dick's Girlfriend (also steph and tim to a lesser degree atm) and people refuse to engage with their character not in reference to their boyfriend, so writers have them constantly mention their relationship with dick even in comics that hes not in (like batgirls having dick show up randomly/birds of prey (1999) having babs talk about dick alllll the time, or kory in the current blue beetle run constantly mentioning dick even though theyre not dating rn and jaime has never even met dick). and thats somewhat starting to happen with rose where shes only in comics that jason is in and if jasons not in it then jason gets mentioned (see: catwoman #62). and obv as a rose fan i really don’t want that to happen because she’s such a great character outside of jason and i don’t want her to be reduced to just who she is with him. this is mostly me overreacting, especially since she had a miniseries just last year that jason was not in or mentioned at all. but being a fan of a female comic character means that most people are not willing to talk about her without mentioning her relationship with a man, and its even worse when the man is a batboy so i’m constantly on alert

so basically thats why it puts a bad taste in my mouth, but i have no issue with the ship itself or anyone who ships it!

i think jason & rose are extremely compatible. i see them as bffs but i genuinely do think about them in a relationship a lot even though i dont necessarily ship it. im rotating both of them in my mind 24/7 so i think about how i think they would act in a relationship & how it would ideally be done in canon. but i just dont trust any comic writers to actually respect rose

the reason i said that jayrose is one of the only jason ships that matters is because most jason ships are soooo bad... i wont name names but some jay ships rely on one or both of them being extremely out of character for it to work at all. in terms of jason ships, jayrose is one of the best just because a) an in-character jason AND an in-character rose would genuinely get along really well and b) none of the stories that they've been in have really been THAT out of character (with the exception of gotham war imo, which i went into here so i wont beat a dead horse. dceased was pretty bad too but that’s tom taylor’s fault it has nothing to do with jayrose). also unlike many other jason ships, a good portion of the people that ship jayrose are the ones who actually read the comics so it tends to be an actual Nuanced and Accurate portrayal. ofc there are many exceptions to that but as of rn jayrose is not one of the Certified Batfam Ships (you know those ships that are the only ships that fanon fans know about so whenever they want to give their fav a boyfriend they shove em with another character they know nothing about. like dick/wally where people say "well they were friends in yja thats enough for me" and they havent read anything with wally in it besides dick/wally fanfic and they dont care about him outside of his relationship with dick), so theyre somewhat safe. but unfortunately because of titans tv its also shipped by The Worst Man You've Ever Met so. you win some you lose some ig

it bothers me when people claim that they dont like jayrose because they "dont like what it does to rose" ???? literally when has jayrose ever been bad for rose. her worst out of character moments have nothing to do with jason in any way. she doesnt get sidelined for him and she doesnt get reduced to a damsel in distress or something. its annoying to me that people feel the need to make up an excuse for why they dont like the ship so they use rose as a scapegoat and pretend that theyre doing it for her when they actually dont know anything about her. just say you dont like it and move on! you dont need to justify it you can just not like it

so for the most part i have no issue with it, which is why i tend to mention it when i think its funny. theres a lot of jayrose content that i enjoy bc theyre fun together and i like seeing them interact! i dont ship them but i think its a good ship <3

however. despite all that i still have more thoughts. im playing devil's advocate against myself and disagreeing with everything i just said

because also. its kind of not in character for them to date. i like where they're at right now because theyre kind of in a casual thing, like theyre hanging out and having sex in the bushes but theyre not Dating. theyre not in a serious relationship that we've seen (other than gotham war but im not acknowledging that), so i like where they're at right now. hanging out, rose flirting aggressively and jason giving her next to nothing in return because he cant flirt, and probably having sex off panel*. i think theyre in a good place at the moment and i dont want it to change from exactly where it is right now in canon. *inside my head theyre actually just pals that pretend to flirt because they think its funny. they do not have sex off panel and they dont want to but the insane flirting is an inside joke that no one else thinks is funny. but thats just me

because neither of them has really shown any interest in dating (when written in character! so we're not counting rhato). the most "interested" jason has ever been in someone is minor flirting with donna in countdown. but he did not make a move on her and repeatedly said throughout that book that he was only focused on the mission and did not care about anything else. he doesnt seem to actually be interested in a relationship with anyone, partially because hes extremely emotionally closed off (to a degree. he is VERY open with his emotions, but hes not the kind of person that lets people into his life easily) and also because he just has other shit to think about. no sex only vengeance.

and ROSE. she is the most closed off person you will ever see. she will have casual sex in an effort to suppress all emotions (which i could talk about extensively. but thats not what this post is about), but she doesnt date people. the only people that she was close to being in a relationship with were eddie and hosun. with eddie, it was all flirting, emotional moments, and her pushing him away. she genuinely liked him (arguably. i could go into how its comphet but that is once again not what this is about), but she was closed off and didnt want to date him because she has so many issues. she tried to make him jealous and did her aggressive flirting thing like she does with jason, but she did not want to have an actual relationship with him. and with hosun, she once again (arguably) genuinely liked him, but she did not tell him that. she MARRIED HIM and still didnt talk to him about her feelings. he liked her and was interested in a relationship with her, but she did not want to embrace that and didnt make any effort to have a real relationship with him outside of agreeing to stay married to him after slade was arrested. she doesnt have any interest in actually dating the guys she likes, and shes so emotionally repressed that she will not make any effort to even be close with them

i hate phantom-one and i hate the idea of rose dating phantom-one but. i genuinely think their "relationship" is pretty in character for her (brisson understands her so well), because at most they have some nice conversations. shes somewhat interested in him so she'll come onto him a bit (no aggressive flirting but still), and she opens up to him when shes at her absolute lowest, then she leaves. shes more focused on what stormwatch is doing and she shows little interest in phantom-one during missions, but she likes him and oscillates between ignoring him and hitting on him. so.. out of the relationships rose has in recent canon..... i could make the argument that rose/phantom-one is more in character for her than jayrose even though i like jayrose a LOT more than i like rose/phantom-one

so yeah. its in character for them to get along. but i DONT think its in character for them to be in a serious relationship. which is another part of the reason im kinda skeptical about their relationship in canon, just because i dont want it to be an actual Relationship since it doesnt really make sense for them to actually date given... everything about them.

but again thats all just my opinion! ship whatever you want we're all just playing with dolls

[necrotic-nephilim]

i’m feeling messy. for the new ask game, 5 :)

for the choose violence ask game!

5. worst discord server and why

of COURSE you would choose to be this messy, you lil rat. <3 i will be kind enough to not name the server, it's a general Batfamily server i found on Disboard. most Bafam discord servers tend to be... anti leaning so it's something i sort of expect, but this one has a "ship advisory list", including ships you're not allowed to share media of (like fanfic or fanart) and if you discuss the ship you can be told to stop talking about it. and there were the typical ships you'd expect like Joker/Harley, BatJokes, and ofc a "no proships" umbrella ban. but some of the ships fucking baffled me. like canon ships were on this list. ships i to this day can't figure out why they'd be banned. the top ships of the list that just *got me* in terms of "... what is bad about this ship???" were

DickBabs

DonnaDick

Barry/Diana

Barry/Dinah

JayRose

Catwoman/Penguin

Talia/Bane

some of these i didn't know were shipped in the *first place* but even if they are, i can't fathom what's wrong with them. some of them are canon, normal ships? like what did JayRose do wrong. it's one of Jason's healthier relationships. and DonnaDick somehow gets me the most. my only guess is that antis heard them referred to as the Wonder Twins and thus decided the ship was incestual. bc otherwise how. why. i laugh everytime i think about DonnaDick being problematic.

on one hand i do think it's fucking hilarious of a list and it always makes me laugh bc i cannot fathom the mentality. but on the other hand it is sort of depressing that so many public social platforms for discussing the Batfam are becoming *so* anti-leaning that ships can be banned simply bc the mods of the server decided they were problematic for some unforeseen reason. it was the biggest depiction of "i don't like this ship so it's problematic" i've ever seen. like where does the goalpost stop moving? when does it somehow become problematic to ship things in general? it was wild even for anti stuff. truly the most baffling server i've been in.

Are you gonna make any more fanfics about jayrose? The ones you posted on AO3 were really good

HI Anon! Working on half a dozen of them as we speak. :D It's just going slow cause my work/sleep schedule is kinda fucked right now. Should improve over the next few weeks.

I think the latest chapter of Outlaws is 75% done? (Which yeah, not strictly a Jayrose fic, but there IS some Jayrose throughout.) Bury A Friend's update is....coming. I have tons written. It's just transitions and figuring out where to put the chapter breaks.

[gothamite-rambler]

Dimensional Crossroads: A fanfic where portals open around the world and Gotham, leading the main Batfamily to encounter alternate versions of themselves, their friends, and those they’ve lost.

Harley Quinn's Redemption Arc: Harley Quinn, while admittedly insane from the effects of jumping into the Joker toxin, is making amends and bettering herself as best as she can. She's not a hero or a licensed therapist anymore, but being an anti-hero street therapist works for her. Now, she's attempting to repair her relationships with former foes, especially Jason. Her girlfriend Ivy doesn't fully support her working with the Bat Family, but she will still be there for her.

Tim struggles to keep his superhero life separate from his love life, but Bernard isn’t one to shy away from a chance to fight bad guys. Together, they make the perfect couple—who knew romance could be so action-packed?

Tim Drake Fics: This series delves into Tim's journey as he copes with the tragic deaths of his parents. It captures his internal conflicts with villains who complement his persona, his occasional hair-trigger temper, and the way his intelligence and tendency to overthink often come in handy—at the most unexpected moments.

Duke Thomas Fics: Follow Duke as he adjusts to life within the Batfamily, carving out his own niche while embracing the unconventional nature of his new home. He’s not your average hero, and some of his moves—and perhaps even his strategies—are inspired by his favorite animes. Just remember, he doesn’t mess with the spirits!

Cass Fics: In these stories, Cass shows off her badass side while embracing her role as Bruce's favorite (and only) daughter. The series explores her deep bond with her "baby brother," Jason, as she navigates her own anxieties and issues. And who says dating life can’t be enjoyable?

Spoiler vs. Kite-Man Fics: Inspired by a headcanon I had after watching Kite-Man, Hell Yeah, this series humorously explores the unlikely dynamic of Stephanie Brown and Kite-Man. Though Stephanie initially dislikes Kite-Man, their odd relationship shifts as she lets him escape and he proposes a rivalry. She even gets to meet his fiancée! FML, indeed.

Jason Todd's Pre-Return to the Batfamily Fics: This series dives into Jason's tumultuous journey before rejoining the Batfamily. During this time, he battles Tim in a brutal second fight, keeps Damian’s identity a secret from Bruce, reconciles with Dick, rescues Bruce, and ultimately decides to stop killing—all while forming his own team.

Talia al Ghul: A Good Mom Fics: This series portrays Talia as a mother first, villain second, in her relationship with Damian. After making mistakes with both him and Bruce, and following her brush with death, she is determined to be a better mother, even if it annoys her son in the process.

Commissioner Gordon Fics: Follow Jim Gordon as he navigates the complexities of dealing with the Batfamily, particularly Batman, all while pretending he isn’t fully aware of Bruce Wayne's secret identity to the general public.

That's what I have so far off the top of my head! You can check out many of these stories on my pinned masterlist. Thanks for reading, and if I muster the courage to post them on AO3, I’ll share the links soon.

Love you all, peace!

Snippet from the 2nd chapter of my Jason Todd x Rose Wilson fanfiction ANTINOMY

....

They sat in silence for a while. When Rose (17) attempted to put out her cigarette on the gargoyle, Jason (15) swatted her hand away.

“Absolutely not.”

“What?”

“You’re not putting that out on Francis.”

“Excuse me?”

Jason rolled his eyes again. “Not happening, Rose.”

With a breathy chuckle, she put it out on the side of the building and put the bud in her box of cigarettes.

“Francis? Really? You named a gargoyle?”

Jason didn’t reply.

“Why are we in a library, Birdboy?”

“Because… I like it here,” he confessed.

“Oh?”

“We didn’t know where to go. I come here often. I just… Drove here.”

“You like to read, huh?” she said looking wistful. Jason could feel her watching him. He made a “what?” gesture. She smiled.

“You’ve grown,” she said.

It was true. He had had a growth spurt recently. He was as tall as her now. He felt like he was finally growing up, which had seemed like an impossible task when he was…

“So have you,” he replied. And she had. When they had met 2 years ago, she was very skinny and kind of scrawny, like him. Now, she looked like… Well, she looked 17. Jason felt his cheeks burn.

Rose threw her head back and laughed. “Isn’t that cute?” she mocked. Jason looked elsewhere. He had to.

“Look at you. Birdboy is almost a Birdman.”

“Again, you’re only 2 years older than me, Rosie,” he mocked back.

“Oh!” she pretended to be shot in the heart. “Devastating. That’s no way to talk to an old lady, you know. Gotta respect your elders and shit.”

“Eat dirt.”

She reached out and ruffled his hair. Jason moved away, but he was only pretending.

“You’ll make my hair smell like cigarettes. My suit must already smell, ew.”

“Send me the dry-cleaning bill, Babybird,” she mocked as she ruffled his hair some more. “So I can ignore it.”

....

They were yelling on top of this library by the gargoyles. It was kind of funny.

She got closer to his face and pushed him back. He didn’t fall. She didn’t push that hard.

“You know what your problem is, Robin?” The way she spat that name lit a flame in Jason’s stomach, but he held his breath. “I know what the fuck I am. I know I’m a lost cause. But you—all high and mighty justice warrior—You have no idea what the fuck you are.”

[bluboothalassophile]

I know you probably won't want to for reasons, but, how crazy would it be to write a one shot of Jason from HFAB universe to run into Jason from Calm in the Storm? Just a little woops, not supposed to be here, mind screw!

Hello,

I’m always up for mind screws, so where shall we begin…?

Right Woman, Wrong Universe…

The light filtered through the window curtains into his eyeswhich had him groaning as he pulled a pillow over his head and rolled away fromit. It was too early in the morning for light! He nuzzled his face into thesecond pillow and squeezed his eyes shut tighter to attempt to fall back fromthat in between point of sleep and awake to go back to blissfulunconsciousness. There was a shift of weight on the bed, which he ignored invain hopes of going back to sleep. The soft moan of a soft, husky voice he knewhad his eyes snapping open as he bolted upright, the sheet being yanked fromhis companion.

Jason blinked rapidly, sleep gone from his mind as he stareddown at her.

Her long black hair was fanned over the pillow beside him,her naked body was prone as her delicate breast rose and fell in even breaths.Her hand curled on the pillow by her head, her other hand rested on her smooth,bare stomach, which had his eyes trailing further down.

Difference between that drunken Christmas and right now wasshe was fully naked, there was no delicated lacy panties shielding her from hisview. The runes on her were different but he knew those could change. Jasonlooked around the room; where the hell were they!?

Slowly and cautiously he slipped out of the bed, startled byhis equally naked state.

Shit!

Did they…? He looked at the torn, discarded clothes that litteredthe floor. There were a discarded condoms, which had him panicking as he lookedaround. Grabbing a pair of pants he darted silently of the room, having no ideawhere they were, and hoping to find clues as to what the hell had happened lastnight.

Last night, he had been out, drinking in a dive bar hefavored; he remembered that because he was bitching with a fellow regular aboutthe Knights game as they were slaughtered by the Mets. He had had a couplebeers, and with the Pit he didn’t get the buzz or get drunk easily.

She had sauntered in, he remembered that, but it wasn’tRaven…

No, he had been making out with Rose last night. Heremembered because they had made it to the alley, and he had her pinned to abrick wall while they struggled for dominance. She had bite his abused lip, hehad cursed her as he twisted her arm behind her back, she had shoved her assagainst…

Well, that was the last thing he remembered.

He had definitely not been with or near Rae, so what thehell had happened.

“Mmm, morning handsome,” a seductive smoky voice purred asshe sauntered in, there was an open Alonso jersey on her, that did nothing tohide her.

His eyes raked over her before he determinedly looked outthe window.

“Uh… morning,” he muttered.

“Jason? Is something wrong?” she asked, he tensed when herhand touched his upper shoulder.

“Uh… did we… last night…” he stammered out, stepping out ofher reach to assess the permanent damage he had inflicted on his best friend.There were hickeys, bruises, there were marks of passion; but he didn’tremember putting them there. Immediately he reached out and did up the buttonson her jersey.

Raven gave him a startled look then.

“Yes… we did… did that explosion make you lose your memory?I know I said I wouldn’t, but Jason,” she started reaching for him. He saw themagic on her fingers and ducked out of her range. Nope. No. The last thing heneeded was for her to know about his private fantasies she had been starring inlately. Though looking at her now he guessed that it was a moot point.

“Um… Rae… I… Look, I’m sorry, but I didn’t, I… I’m sorry,please don’t… um… this doesn’t change anything,” he said.

Raven chuckled softly. “Jason, I enjoyed last night,” shepromised.

Well that makes one of us, he thought internally. “I just… Idon’t want this to ruin us,” he said.

Now she took a step away from him, her dark eyes raking overhim critically. “Jason?”

“Uh… I’ll just, I’ll get my shit and go…” he started.

“Stay right there Jason Peter Todd,” she snapped. He frozeseeing the dark look on her face, but there was nothing but concern on herfeatures as well. “What are you talking about?”

“I… We slept together last night.”

“I’m aware. We do that frequently.”

“We had sex Rae and I’m sorry for fucking this up! I’mtrying not to fuck it up more!” he snapped. She looked a bit confused, butthere was a critical way she was looking at him which made him think he shouldback track. He was wrecking everything, but he didn’t… he couldn’t… he didn’tknow what to do! She was his best friend! Shit! Raven was everything! And hedidn’t remember sleeping with her! He remembered Rose; he did not know how hehad landed here though, and it was freaking him out.

“Fuck it up how?” Raven asked.

“Uh… look, you’re my best friend, and I…”

“Jason, what’s the last thing you remember? You can tell me,I won’t get upset,” she promised.

“Uh… I was at my regular dive, bitching about the Knightsgetting slaughtered by the Mets, and then Rose and I were making out, I thinkshe might’ve drugged me, but I don’t know how the hell you and I got into bedand I am so sorry Rae! Let me fix this!”

“Jason,” Raven said walking to grab his arms, he felt thecalm radiating off of her as she forced him to look into her eyes. “I don’tthink I’m your Raven.”

“Huh?”

“I have been in a relationship with my Jason for nearly fouryears now, we have fabulous sex frequently, and are best friends. You didn’t ruinanything, I don’t think you’re my Jason and I’m not your Raven, and I don’tthink you and I slept together.”

“Oh thank God,” he breathed, his knees going weak as hecaught himself on the countered. “No offense, I mean you’re smoking hot and mytype,” he started awkwardly. Raven merely smiled softly.

“No offense taken,” she promised. “Let me get properlydressed and we’ll sort this thing out.” She walked off, and he watched her ass;sue him, he was a guy and Raven was smoking hot! She reappeared dressed inleggings and her jersey, she pulled her long hair up in a tail and assessedhim.

“I met my Jason when he pointed a gun at my head and theLazarus Pit was drowning him. I hid him in my room and even under my bed for abouta month before I moved and got an apartment with him, he moved out two weekslater, and remained my dearest friend, and semi-roommate for years. He’s RedHood and Red X, he and I started dating when he kissed me when the Cubs won theWorld Series,” she said. “I love him very much, and you are not him, but if youlet me I would like to help you and get him back.”

Jason blinked several times at not-his-Rae staring at himwith the exact same determined expression his Rae wore when she was going upagainst his skittish nature, traumas and defenses.

“I met my Rae officially when I stole her mind and she cameto kick my ass, then dragged me off to go get it back. She’s my best friend,and no we are not a couple, I would never do that to her, you, she, you knowwhat I mean, you’re too good for me.” He admitted.

“Nice to meet you Jason,” she offered her hand to him.

“You too Raven. Where the hell am I?” he asked.

“You’re in my Jason’s and I’s apartment, we’ve lived herefor a couple of years now, he just finished the bathroom renovations,” shechuckled.

“Oh!?” he lifted a brow. Jason had, since living with Royand renovating that massive warehouse, found he liked flipping properties, itwas hard work, but rewarding and he liked to work with his hands. It wassatisfying; almost as satisfying as being Red Hood.

“Yeah, I take it as you like that too?”

“Yeah, you don’t?”

“No, I like it, I just don’t like having you leave me in amess of renovations!” she defended.

“I would never!” he sputtered.

“I see, your Rae has you better trained then.”

“Not really,” he said.

“It’s okay Jason. I’m just teasing.”

“I…” he sputtered.

“We’ll figure this out.”

“Well… you’re definitely Raven,” he said.

“And you’re definitely Jason. So tell me why you aren’t withme in your universe.”

“Do I look suicidal to you?”

“Depends on the light.”

“Hardy-har-har Rae, how the hell am I getting home!?”

“With ruby shoes?” she offered.

“I see I’ve rubbed off on you in this universe.”

“We always bring out the best in each other.”

“More like the snark.”

“That too,” she chuckled. “Come on, we’ll start with MadamXandu to find out where you’re from and Constantine to find out how you got here.”

“Well, if I’m here then your Jason is with my Rae…” Jasonstarted then paled. “If he kisses her I’m knocking his face in!” he warned.

“Well, if you’re like my Jason then I’ll let you know nowthat he’s done a hell of a lot more than kissing,” she chuckled.

“Don’t… for the love of anything sacred do not go there,please!” he pleaded.

“But I’m your type,” she mused.

“That’s the problem,” he grumbled.
