How Jason and Roy became friends at a Burger King
Jason Todd: You seem familiar, have I threatened you in the past?
Roy Harper: Did you sell me China cat when I was addicted to heroin?
Jason Todd sits down at the table.
Jason: I'm sorry, I need to know more because we might be friends now. Oh shoot I think I do know you.
Roy: Are you selling me drugs?
Jason: Nope. Hey... did you shoot arrows and dress like peter pan?
Roy: It... it was more robin hood inspired.
Jason: Red hair... arrows... robin hood... Oh you're that moron's, Arrow, sidekick! Oh my God, it's so good to see you again! How you been?
Roy: On... heroin, falling out with Arrow, got married, had a daughter, lost custody, was on heroin and recovering.
Jason: Awesome, you are comfortable to tell me all of this. I like that.
Roy: I ain't got nothing left to lose. How do you know who I am?
Jason: I'll go with my trauma, okay, I was the second robin, died by the joker, was revived from the lazarus pit, went insane, worked with the ghuls for a few years, found Batman, tried to kill him, failed, crazy times man.
Jason laughs and then sighs. Roy stares at him confused.
Jason: I am not making up a single thing I said... My name is Jason Todd, you met me before when I was a kid, oh and I fought my brother Nightwing and this annoying spoiled brat named Tim.
Roy: Oh my God, you're not lying. I was there when you made fun of his dead mom.
Jason: That's me!
Roy Harper: You're Jason Todd... Didn't you die?
Jason Todd: Yes, for 5 years actually, but then I wasn't... then I went insane... I'm kind of insane at the moment and I murder horrible people for money... And vengeance, but the money helps.
Jason pours salt in his glass of water and chugs it. Roy looks around confused.
Roy (worried): Are you selling me drugs? Is this a test? Where's Green Arrow? I promised I wouldn't do them again.
Jason (concerned): No. I'm not selling drugs... I have cigarettes but I don't want that for a former drug addict. I just want to be friends with you... I want to... help you. I never got to do that with other drug addicts, and you look cool. I remember you were... the only guy nice to me.
Roy: I don't... I mean it was common human decency. When you died I was sad, on china cat, but sad.
Jason: Can we hang out then? Can I be your friend? Please.
Roy: Um, sure... I'm kind of friends with Nightwing at times.
Jason: Not anymore, you're my friend! We are friends! Nobody will take that from us! I will buy us bracelets. I heard a lot about you after I died and you are the perfect guy friend I could EVER have.
Roy (sincere): That was the nicest thing anyone has said to me.
Jason: I mean it too! I have not had friends in a while.
Roy: I can tell, but we're in a burger king so... this isn't the oddest thing that has happened in here.
Jason: This is great. What do you want to do? Go to a movie, a mission, a mission and a movie?
Roy: Okay, um, a mission if I can get paid.
Jason: Bitchin' let's go!
Jason stands up and yanks Roy out of his chair and they run out of the burger king.
