Character design ideas for Jason, just for fun:

-Empty-ish white eyes, milky eyes, inspired by Juni Ba's Boy Wonder #2 design. Personally I like them with a very discreet colourful undertone, of whatever colour you'd like them to have been before his death. OR: deep warm brown. (I don't have a stable Jason design. I think brown eyes fit him so well but the eerie white look is such a vibe.) In any case they're very pretty and eye-catching for sure!

-Freckles. Not too dense, over his cheekbones and over his nose, full blushing area.

-tapetum lucidum (the cat eye glow in the dark thing)

-Lower body temperature/slow heartbeat/no rising of the chest + breathing out sounds like a dying exhale. (None of those are from the lazarus pit, and none of those were fixed by the pit. He is just like that.)

-Jason never takes off his shirt in public. One might think it's because of his autopsy scar, and they wouldn't be entirely wrong. Sometimes, when he'll move too fast or has a bad day, points in the scar open where the suture needle slipped in, and the inside of the wound will peak into the world. Between the corners of his skin, translucent white roots tangle together, thin and smooth and glossy, shifting and moving like birting ants and worms. The real reason he wears reinforced steel and tazers on his chest: sometimes, the roots pierce through. They leak something red and thick that smells like iron and isn't blood.

-pierced ears, often only wears one earring, switches which ear from time to time to fuck with people.

-Jason is part of the black nail polish crew! I like to think that, like me, he doesn't care much to fit neatly in the lines. When it starts to wear off he scratches it off as a nervous stim!

-There is absolutely nothing wrong with Jason Todd's looks. He could even be called "handsome", or "pretty", depending on who you ask. Still, for some reason, it hurts to look at him for too long. The first time John Constantine meets him, he throws up.

-Jason is ethnically ambiguous, often white-passing in Gotham but whenever he's somewhere the sun actually exists he isn't anymore. I like to think he has east-asian and latinx roots.

-brown leather engraved bracelet.

-The very tip of Jason's fingers is black, like frostbite. No matter what he tries, he always feels cold.

-Jason never shivers.
