jason todd x fem!reader

word count: 3.6k warnings: sexual humour, implied sexual content (non-explicit), mention of insecurities
Jason accidentally leaves a comm behind in your apartment - it would be rude not to have a listen, right?

Itâs safe to say your evening is currently painfully boring.
Make no mistake, scrolling through Netflix is a treasured pastime most days. Somehow, it just wasnât scratching the itch alone on a Friday night, disappointed and aching for the presence your boyfriend.
Jason had left for patrol roughly an hour ago. It was supposed to be your night together â both of you had made sure to make time in the calendar to go on a long overdue date. Between your work and Jasonâs late-night patrols (which often left him fast asleep until at least midday), it was difficult to orchestrate time specifically for the two of you. Yes, you ate dinner together most evenings, often casually basked in each otherâs company as you tinkered around your shared apartment, but it wasnât the same as date night.
Jason had been more than a little pissed when heâd gotten a phone call from Dick asking him to help with the patrol this evening, face falling as soon as the caller ID lit up his phone. Bruce had to rush out of town, heâd claimed, and they needed the extra manpower after a recent Arkham outbreak. Youâd known the moment Jasonâs shoulders sagged that he would go. It was in his nature as a vigilante. Presenting him with the opportunity to save some poor, unfortunate Gothamites was like dangling a bone in front of a dog and not expecting it to bite.
You tried not to let it sting. When Jason had confessed to you about his alter-ego, youâd known that there would be certain sacrifices in your relationship most would not have to contend with. You doubted there were many people who were jealous of the amount of time their boyfriend spent with the Penguin. It was an unconventional set-up by most standards, but the two of you made it work. It was only on the odd occasion that you truly felt the impact of Jasonâs âcareer pathâ.
The silence in the kitchen had been deafening when heâd hung up the phone. Itâs not that you were angry with Jason, or Dick, or anyone for that matter. You were just disappointed. Youâd kept your mouth clamped shut as best you could out of fear that if it opened, words would trickle out in the heat of the moment youâd come to regret later on. Clearly, your silence was statement enough, because Jason had only pressed a kiss into your hair with a quiet promise to make it up to you before retreating into the bedroom to get ready for the long night ahead of him. He knew better than to press the issue.
As a result, you were perched on the couch exactly where Jason had left you. The absence of any plans youâd had for the evening left you restless, unable to settle into any particular task. And fucking hell you were bored.
It's just as you go to retreat into the bedroom to try and sleep off your lingering frustrations that you hear the crackling from the bookshelf tucked away in the corner, a short static sound that cuts through the silence of the apartment. It takes a few seconds for you to spot it, the tiny earpiece shoved behind an old, tattered paperback. Jason had been working on his suit earlier in the week, and youâd overheard his curt conversation with Bruce on the phone about needing a new set after breaking his old ones.
Not so broken, clearly.
Your curiosity is piqued enough to venture over to the shelf, plucking the tiny object up carefully to avoid breaking it any further. Youâd seen Jason tinker with them before, most likely to scramble the tracking features that came with most of the tech Bruce had given him in recent years. You can hear the muted mumble of conversation, not clear enough to make out any distinct words but enough to know that there was a lengthy talk being had on the line.
Itâs not your proudest moment as you slot it into your ear, and definitely, most likely, a severe invasion of privacy. Guilt twangs in the pit of your stomach, but hey â if Jasonâs allowed to follow you home from the bodega to make sure you donât get mugged in the precious fifteen seconds it takes, you can listen to a few minutes of radio chatter, right? Youâre just looking out for him. Want to be close to him.
Yeah, right.
Itâs uncomfortable, designed to be completely moulded to Jason, and thereâs a persistent hum that wonât seem to fade (definitely a little broken) but the voices come to life almost instantly.
âIâm just saying, Empire Strikes Back is by far the superior film, and I wonât hear otherwise.â
âMust you fill our ears with such incessant chatter, Drake.â
âCodenames. And I donât know, Robin, heâs kind of cooking.â
You recognise the final voice as Dick â the only member of Jasonâs family youâd had the pleasure of meeting despite your nearing year-long relationship. It hadnât been on purpose, naturally, Dick had spotted the pair of you in the window of a coffee shop and rushed over to corner Jason before he could formulate an escape plan that didnât involve blowing up your favourite date spot. Jason had honest-to-god hissed when he saw his brother approach, and for a split second you were certain he was going to throw his tea over him.
In spite of Jasonâs grumbling, youâd taken an instant liking to the elder. He was charismatic, exuberant and kind, and quite frankly it was hard not to bask in the warmth of his presence. As soon as heâd left, however, Jason had sworn that you were never going to meet the rest of his family if he could help it â and thus far heâd kept his promise.
Still, you were aware of the players on the board from the pieces youâd gathered in time spent with your boyfriend. The second voice, you had correctly identified, was Damian â or the Demon Brat as Jason often took to calling him when he came up. You have to stifle a laugh at his bravado. Much like the picture your mind had painted, the kid definitely had an aura about him.
That just left Tim, the first voice. Jason mentioned him the least of all of his siblings, and you found that when his name came up Jason seemed to shrink into himself somewhat, sometimes fading away, seemingly lost in memories he couldnât quite escape. You knew that Jason had a troubled relationship with most of his family members at one point or another, having been spared the specifics, but your gut told you that there was something about his relationship with Tim that cut a tad deeper than the rest.
It was strange, to finally put voices to names. You canât help the small smile that curves on your lips.
âRight, fess up, who taught Nightwing about âlet him cookâ,â A female voice rings out.
You filter through your previous conversations with Jason as you try to figure out who it could belong to, rapidly considering the vague descriptions heâd given you of Steph, Cass and Babs. It doesnât take you long to decide itâs most likely Stephanie.
âHey â could I not have just, I donât know, learned about it myself?â
âNot likely, they probably didnât have the internet until you were, what? Forty?â
âTough talk coming from a girl who gave The Last Jedi five stars on Letterboxd.â
âYou did what?â
âI must admit, Spoiler, that is disappointing.â
âDo any of you ever shut the fuck up?â
Your body thrums at the last one, and a breath tears its way out of your throat. Jason. It throws you off balance to hear him so brusk, a fire in his words that he rarely brought to the conversations you had - in your experience, it was typically reserved for when he stubbed a toe or let the pasta boil over on the stove. His voice sounds somewhat thick, and your stomach churns at the idea that your demeanour from earlier had rattled him so deeply.
You were well acquainted with Jasonâs compulsion to work; he was completely and utterly addicted to it. So much so, that youâd failed to consider just how disappointed he might feel about missing your date too.
As if on cue, Timâs voice rings out, âAww, Hoodâs upset because he was going to wine and dine his girlfriend tonight.â
âRed RobinâŠâ
âI was being polite the first time, now Iâm telling you. Shut the fuck up.â
The statement throws you a little, hearing Jasonâs family discuss your relationship as though it were a common topic. The scraps of information Jason had given you about them were so few and far in between that you could only assume he had been the same on the other side of it. Quickly, you realise, that he probably had been â you could hazard a guess coming from a family of famed detectives didnât exactly make it easy to keep secrets.
âI refuse to believe that Red Hood has a partner,â Damianâs words are impossibly snide, âWho could possibly want to spend any more time with him than is absolutely necessary?â
You make out a few giggles after that, namely Tim and Steph, who seem to be basking in the concept of making Jason as miserable as possible. Itâs Dick that steps in to shh them, chiding Damian with a measured tone that youâre sure could only have developed from years of dealing with this exact situation. The babble continues back and forth for a few minutes, and you can almost feel yourself beginning to sink into sleep as you listen to them bicker, someone occasionally slipping in some useful intel about a warehouse or rogue sighting.
The line goes quiet when Jason lets out a harsh, âOh, fuck!â
A pulse of lightning seems to shoot its way down your spine, and it takes more than you thought yourself capable of to not scream down the comm line.
âHood?â
âRed Hood?â
âHood, you okay?â
âHood, status report, now.â
âIâm fine,â Jason bites out, a little bemused if nothing else, âMy hip and knee are just stiff. Getting colder outside, yaâ know.â
The silence is deafening for a few seconds, and you canât claim to know where everyoneâs thoughts sink to, but you could guess it was to do with Jasonâs sordid history.
That is, until Tim pipes up dryly, âSo, what is that, like, rigor mortis?â
âOh my god.â
âThatâs so not okay, dude.â
âHoly shit.â
You wait eagerly in anticipation to hear Jasonâs response. You couldnât claim to know every detail of Jasonâs past â it was something the two of you were slowly working on together. He was understandably cagey at the idea of talking about his experiences, so you never pressed, instead allowing him to offer up bits and pieces of information in his more vulnerable moments. In spite of that, you knew that Jason had died. There wasnât another plausible explanation for the giant Y-scar that stretched its way across his chest. Youâd worked for a long time on getting him to feel comfortable enough to be around you without a shirt on, comfortable enough to know you werenât going to turn tail and run just at the sight. He hadnât told you how or why â but the look in his eyes when he stared in the mirror for a second too long was enough to let you know it was certainly no fairytale.
Which is why itâs such a surprise when a deep, rumbling laugh filters through the earpiece, and youâre struck with the image of Jason perched on a rooftop somewhere chuckling to himself as he watches over the city. Within seconds thereâs an orchestra of maniacal cackles pouring through the comms, and youâre fairly certain that the only one who isnât laughing is Damian.
âHood, does your partner know of your death and resurrection?â
Jeez, Damian, way to soften the blow.
Dick quickly jumps in to chastise his brother, sounding increasingly more exasperated with every word, âRobin, you canât ââ
âYeah, she does,â Jasonâs voice is surprisingly earnest, âDonât think it bothers her, not really.â
Tim and Steph jump in almost immediately to make outrageous kissing noises, crooning Oh, Hood and I love you, Hood and other slightly more inappropriate comments. Youâre certain if you looked in the mirror the colour of your cheeks wouldnât be far off Jasonâs helmet.
âHonestly, you two need to stop behaving like I donât have your exact coordinates,â Jason huffs out, but you can hear the twinge of humour in his words. Heâs not angry, not at all, if anything youâd say he was finding it funny.
âSeriously though, Hood,â Stephâs voice is somewhat strained from laughing, âWhen are you going to introduce us?â
âNever.â
âCome on, man.â
âDick got to meet her!â
âI would be interested in assessing the capabilities of this civilian.â
âYeah, well, sheâs more than capable.â
Now that has a little more bite to it, and your chest swells with pride at Jasonâs defensiveness. Youâd always felt a tad insecure about how you compared to the rest of the people in Jasonâs life â surrounded by superheroes, metahumans, and some of the most proficient individuals in the world. You were just a civilian, and in your opinion, nothing all that special. But Jason had always made sure that you felt equal, that the differences in what you did outside the walls of your apartment had no bearing on the fact his world started and ended with you.
âSo⊠does the mask stay on when you get freaky or ââ
âSteph, donât make me come over there, you know I will.â
âCodenames.â Honestly, you canât help but respect Dick for his seemingly unwavering patience, although you could guess it might be due to the noticeable absence of Batman himself to rein in his children in his place. âSpoiler, we have a child with us.â
âI donât understand Spoiler. What is getting freakyââ
âPlease,â Dickâs begging now.
âOh, B is gonna have fun with that when he gets home.â
âPfft, you think B is going to know what getting freaky means?â
âYou know that means heâs going to ask us, right?â
âShit.â
Your brain starts to feel fried just listening to them. And the most obscene part of it all is that you can hear them fighting, subduing local criminals while simultaneously having one of the weirdest conversations youâve ever been a party to (well, secretly a party to). You have to place the earpiece on the other side of the room and retreat into the bathroom to let out what could be a laugh or a scream â you canât be sure.
Unsurprisingly, when you slot the earpiece back in again, the conversation has shifted.
You only catch the end of Timâs words, but itâs enough to send your entire body into a state of shock, ââ when the wedding happens.â
âWhen the wedding happens,â Jason bites out breathlessly, clearly in the middle of some kind of confrontation, âYour sorry ass isnât going to be fuckinâ invited.â
And the comm line erupts.
âWhen the wedding happens?â
âWHAT?â
âGuys, fuckinâ hell, I didnât mean it like ââ
âIâm presuming this means you have a ring, yes, Todd?â
If you werenât already sat, youâre certain your legs would have given way underneath you. The room is spinning, youâre overwhelmed by the feeling of the world shifting on its axis and you can feel your heart vibrating in your throat.
You and Jason had never made any point of talking about marriage. It had come up casually, as it did in the conversations of most couples â but you had never had any particularly serious discussions about the subject. You, for one, had avoided it out of fear of spooking Jason, whom youâd already spent enough time coaxing out of his shell without potentially scaring him back in again. You had no idea that it was something that he was thinking about.
Of course, you wanted to marry him. From the moment heâd asked you to be his girlfriend, youâd known that he was the only option.
âOne last time,â Dickâs voice tears you from your thoughts, grating like nails on a chalkboard. It sends a chill through your entire body and for a brief second you can envision what it would be like to be confronted by Nightwing on a bad day. âCodenames. I donât care if you donât think anyone is listening ââ
âFunny you say that. Someone is listening.â
Itâs a womanâs voice. That must be Babs.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Abort. Abort. Abort. Immediately.
If you thought the comm line had exploded before, this was an atomic bomb. Itâs a cacophony, instantly. Not the casual chattering over each other of minutes prior, instead itâs angered shouts, concerned whispers and vehement speculations about who it could possibly be.
The last thing you hear when you drop the earpiece into the garbage disposal with a sickening clang is Jasonâs concerningly enlightened âOh shitâ.

Youâve been lying in bed practicing pretending to be asleep for an hour when Jason finally peels through the bedroom window. It takes everything you can muster to regulate your breathing, steady your heartbeat and lay still enough to feign unconsciousness.
The telltale rustling of Jason pulling off his costume as quietly as possible is enough to make you let out a barely-there sigh of relief. Thereâs a fleeting sadistic pride that burns in your chest at the thought that youâve fooled the mighty Red Hood.
âSo, where is it?â
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
Maybe if you donât answer, heâll just lay off â
âI know youâre awake.â You nearly jump up to the ceiling because he says it directly into your ear and you didnât even hear him move from beside the window. Fucking vigilantes.
âI donât know what youâre talking about,â you borderline whimper, and abruptly realise if you were going to double-down you probably should have done it with a bit more authority.
âReally, sweetheart? Thatâs what weâre going with.â
You roll over ever so slightly, just enough to pull your face from the pillow. Jasonâs eyes are practically glowing in the dark of your bedroom and his face is not even an inch from yours. Heâs close enough that you can make out the ever so slight sweaty dampness of his hair, that you could trace the freckles and scars alike that are dotted across his face â you can also make out the unmistakable curve of his lips, upwards ever so slightly at the corner.
âGarbage disposal.â The words come out quicker than you thought was physically possible and could potentially be mistaken for the creaking of a door in a different context given the pitch of them. Youâre not sure if you feel like a weight has been lifted off your chest or tied to your foot and subsequently flung into a river.
The silence is painful. Agonising. Itâs too dark to completely make out Jasonâs expression, his body completely still. Youâre not even sure if heâs breathing.
And then he starts to shake, shoulders first, before the rest of his body follows. He collapses onto his side of the bed, jolting the mattress, and the vibrations are enough to confirm your suspicions. Heâs laughing his fucking head off.
âYou put it in the garbage disposal?â Thereâs disbelief lacing his words, and his own question only sets him off again. You throw a weak punch at his arm out of fear of him waking the neighbours.
âYouâre not mad?â Your disbelief matches his own as you finally flip over to face him, now draped in the moonlight pouring through your bedroom window.
His laughter subdues, and he pauses contemplatively before sighing, âI probably should be. But, no, Iâm not. Iâd be a liar if I said I wouldnât do the same fuckinâ thing.â
Thatâs the only signal you need to traverse the bed at break-neck speed, throwing yourself into Jasonâs arms and burying your face into the crook of his neck. Without missing a beat, his arms come around to draw soft patterns up and down your back, and he lets out a relaxed hum of approval.
âIâm sorry about tonight, baby,â he wonât quite look you in the eye as he says it, and you can practically feel the guilt emanating off of him, âI know how much you were looking forward to it. We were looking forward to it.â
âJay,â you sigh, raking a hand through his hair, âI love you. What you do makes you who you are, if I couldnât accept that your aggressive vigilantism was going to have to come first sometimes, we wouldnât be together.â
He presses a chaste kiss to your neck with a soft mumble, âI love you too. Too good fâme.â
âShut up and go shower,â you giggle, shoving him away, âYou stink, pretty boy.â
Jason feigns offense comically, drawing back with a scandalised grin and a shake of his head. You instantly feel the loss as he clambers out of bed, keeping your hands against him for as far as you can reach. Thereâs a quaint smile on his face as he begins to saunter over to the bathroom. God, you love this man.
âJay?â You call, just before the bathroom door clicks shut.
âYeah, princess?â
âI like your family. They seem nice.â You get little more than a grumble in response, and youâre not sure there were any discernible words in there to begin with as he pulls the door to again.
âOh, and Jason?â
âYeah?â
âYou know that thing Steph said â uh, you know â about the mask?â
You can hear the echo of Jasonâs forehead smacking against the doorframe through the wall.

King Baldwin IV - Courting Headcanons đ€
a/n: Here we are again! These are a couple headcanons of mine about a potential courtship with our beloved king. The pining is very real! As always, feel free to hit my inbox for any and all rambling. Hope you enjoy and thank you for reblogging!
wc: 1.3k
tags: king baldwin iv (kingdom of heaven version) x female!reader; fluff
Ah, congratulations! You have managed to capture the heart and attention of the great Baldwin IV of Jerusalem. Baldwin never much contemplated the thought of love, having to face war, his disease and the duty to defend his kingdom from great enemies from a very young age. The weight of the crown and of his responsibilities sits heavy on his head. Which is why you are a breath of fresh air in his chaotic life. No matter how he notices you - maybe you spoke up during a conflicting situation, offering valuable insight, or maybe the King randomly met you while you strolled in his gardens, or maybe he was impressed by your spirit and fighting abilities - having Baldwinâs attention is an honor. You should be proud!
After noticing you, the King would invite you to spend time with him to get to know you better, although without the intention of courting you, at first. As like-minded individuals who share the same principles, a genuine friendship would quickly bloom between you. Even if your interests wouldnât align at first, you would soon find yourselves eager to share your knowledge. For instance, Baldwin would listen to you talk about the plot of the book youâre reading and the lesson you are learning from it without ever taking those blue eyes off of you. He would not only listen, but remember your conversations, as they offer him invaluable insight on the person that you are.
Even Baldwin doesnât notice at first how much your presence is soothing to him. He keeps inviting you to mass on Sundays (giving you the honor of sitting next to him), to a walk in his gardens where he would ask you about your day, to chess games where you would have battles of wits. The hours would pass dreadfully quickly during these meetings.
Baldwin would have a random epiphany about how deeply he aches for you, and it would steal his breath. During a strategy or diplomatic meeting with his advisors, he would catch himself thinking about you. Maybe someone mentioned your homeland and suddenly his thoughts are spiraling about how your laugh warmed his heart that day, or how lovely you looked with your hair done just like that, or how he wished he could be with you. That is when it would dawn on him that you have taken much more space in his heart than he anticipated. Baldwin never gets distracted during state affairs meetings. And you managed to distract him.
This is when the doubts would creep in. He knows he canât have an heir born of his own flesh and blood (his heart would clench when he sees you play with Sibyllaâs son), thus making marriage an unnecessary option. And yet he desires it with you. It would not be a political marriage, but a union of two souls meant to be together. But would you accept to tie yourself to him in such a way, knowing that the Angel of death would come to take him from you so soon? That he would condemn you to an eternity of grieving and widowhood?
Yet, the more time he spends with you, the more fiercely you latch onto his heart. You are just so dear to him, first of all because he can feel that your interest in him is genuine, not tainted by the thirst for power. Your kindness and sensitivity have stolen his heart even before your looks did. I like to imagine that he would allow himself to be selfish and before he knows it, his mind is set, and he will start courting you.

Your kindness and sensitivity have stolen his heart even before your looks did. I like to imagine that he would allow himself to be selfish and before he knows it, his mind is set, and he will start courting you.
âYour Grace!â You quickly stand up from the bench, your book falling from your lap to lay forgotten near the rose bushes. For a moment, you wonder if youâve been visited by an Angel - all you see is the white and gold of his robe swirling with the wind, sunlight glinting off of the familiar silver mask. You bow as King Baldwin approaches you. What has him out in such a rush, as if a horde of Saracens were at his door? The King says your name with a trembling breath, his shoulders heaving from exertion. You look even more ethereal than ever - sunlight framing you like a halo and the rose bushes arching above you, bathing you in a rainbow of red, pink, orange and white blossoms. He closes the distance between you, coming as close as he dares without breaching the rules of propriety. Something latches fiercely onto his heart when he sees the way youâre looking at him, bright eyes shining with awe and hope, lips slightly parted. Emboldened by your reaction, the King stretches his arm out behind you, gloved hand closing around the stem of a white rose. He pulls at the flower, and you wonder if he can feel the prick of the thorns. The thought is quickly forgotten when he hands the rose to you. This is so unlike him, but at this moment Baldwin feels more like a boy in love, not a King courting his beloved. He repeats your name, relishing the way your face lights up when he pronounces each syllable. âPlease, allow me the honor of courting you.â
He would literally be the picture of honor and romance when courting. Itâs just what you deserve! Speaking of gifts, he wonât spend a fortune on generic luxury items such as large gems or fine clothes; heâd pick out quality pieces that would be unique and surprisingly perfectly suited to your aesthetic, showing you how thoughtful he really is. Elegant quills, delicate hair pins, rare books, extravagantly scented candles or exotic fragrances would be more his style. He likes to hand the gifts to you when you are out together because he loves seeing your pretty face light up, but I also like to imagine him letting you find the presents in your chambers, with a sweet note attached, for you to still think of him when your day is coming to a close (not that you wouldnât otherwise). Later on in the courting stage, heâd even have a chess board made just for you where the queen and king match your likeness, for you to enjoy matches together! (That chess board is now in a museum).
Another way of spending quality time would be horse riding. He would be very gallant even if you were a proficient rider, waving away the guards to offer you his hand himself to help you get on and off the horse and making sure that you are correctly mounted first. Heâd make your heart race while holding his hand, which is surprisingly strong and firm under his soft glove. When asked about your sudden flush, you would blame it on the hot Jerusalem winds and sun.
His sister would be one of the first people to notice that you found the Kingâs favor. She is very observant, yet it does not take an expert to see that you and Baldwin have grown quite close. All in all, Sibylla would approve of you and your union with Baldwin, especially after seeing how truly devoted you are to spending time together for the pleasure of each otherâs company, without seeking political advantage. She would invite you to spend time together, such as chatting while having your henna painted, because she wants to get to know the person who clearly stole her brotherâs heart.
All in all, I think a courtship with Baldwin would be sweet, hopeful and discreet at first. Soon enough, the court would see that Baldwin is quite taken with you. The most ambitious courtesans would use this knowledge in hopes of exploiting your connection with the King to their advantage. Luckily, I also think Baldwin would be quite protective, and as soon as he senses that youâre attracting unwanted attention, he would get Tiberias, Balian or a trusted advisor to help him keep an eye on you. However, on a positive note, you would instantly gain the respect of the most loyal members of the court. After all, if a King as wise as Baldwin has chosen you, that speaks volumes about your character. đ

đ "I am Jerusalem..." đ
Slightly more historical take on King Baldwin IV, based on my own concept of a more obviously Frankish-styled armor than what we see in the film. If anyone wants me to geek out on the choices I made, just let me know in the comments, lol.

recently got reminded of Jasonâs âhello bed, hello pillow,â line and how deeply I feel that reflects his character and his longing. so hereâs some yearning!jason because that boy loves deeply and profoundly down to his very soul. have I mentioned I love him? also once again the romanized arabic at the end translates to âmy lifeâ and itâs quickly becoming one of my favorite terms of endearment for Jay to use.
Thinking about Jason Todd and how deeply he yearns for you. Heâs waited so long to be loved in the way he craves, has been so hungry for it that the ache in his belly has never really gone away. Heâs been a wraith, a corpse, a man starving for affection and sweetness. And then you come along and change everything for him. How couldnât he yearn for you? How couldnât he long for you every moment that youâre not in his presence? Revere you and worship you every moment that you are?
Thinking about Jason Todd who treats you like something divine, something holy. He kisses the bruises you get from bumping into countertops or tripping along the crooked cobblestones in Gotham Heights. He ghosts his thumbs over your closed eyes when you lay down with him to sleep in the early hours of the morning. Jason Todd who holds you so, so close to him. He knows you run cold and he runs burning hot, so itâs only right that he wraps his entire body around you to keep you warm and safe. Itâs proof to him that the two of you may be something fated, something that life and death canât touch. How perfectly you suit each other. His fire to your coolness, his strength to your gentleness, his storm to your clear shining day.
Thinking about Jason Todd who clings to everything heâs ever loved and lost with bloodied fingers from how tightly he holds on. His fingers arenât bloodied with you though. He doesnât have to dig his nails in, bite down with his teeth, and force you to stay. You remain peacefully in his arms. You lie there content like you trust him, like you love him. Thatâs what makes his yearning all the more fierceâitâs returned by you. He used to doubt it, used to think he was unworthy and undeserving and that no one could possibly pick him out of all the people in the world. But youâve stuck around and proved him wrong. So when he yearns for you, it isnât with the pain of clawing into something bound to leave him. It isnât with the bone-deep terror of loss. He yearns for you with the peace of coming home.
Thinking of Jason Todd who comes back from patrol just before daybreak. The sky is the same blue-green as his eyes and exhaustion weighs down his body. Still, his soul lifts when he sees what heâs been longing for for the past three hours. A warm bed, a soft pillow, and his heart snuggled up under the blankets.
âHello, bed,â Jason says as he pulls his helmet off and sets it on the dresser.
âHello, pillow,â he greets as he lays his gear on the balcony railings to be cleaned tomorrow.
âHello, hayati,â he whispers with a kiss to your hair as he climbs into bed and pulls you into his arms.
JustâŠthinking about Jason Todd who yearns for you.

Strong-looking vulnerable men......Strong-looking vulnerable men.
You know the type. Big hands, big shoulders, could probably bench-press a car, but the moment they sit down, they look like theyâre carrying the weight of the whole damn universe. Eyes that are just a little too soft for a face that sharp. Like, are you okay? Do you need a hug? Do you want to cry into my arms for three hours?
They look like they could destroy you, but deep down, you know they'd rather let themselves break first. What is it about them? Why do they look like they could hold you together when theyâre clearly held together with duct tape and desperation? Itâs unhinged. Itâs unfair. I want to fix them. Or maybe I want to fall apart with them. I donât even know anymore.
I love them so much they make me lose myself
AAAAAAHHHHHH

Word Count: ~3k
Authorâs Note: kinda expanding on this a bit and ngl I got a little lost in the sauce with this one⊠anyways enjoy!
It wasnât during the first day of their stakeout that Jason noticed anything was off. Nor during the second day.
But maybe he shouldâve known something was up when they charged in on the third day and knocked some heads around. Sure, heâd been a bit more aggressive than he shouldâve beenâa lot of the bad guys probably had life-altering concussions, heâd shattered a couple of jaws, and he was pretty sure heâd broken more than a few femurs. So, heâd be the first to admit, heâd been a bit⊠much. His frown deepened as he tied up the last goon and delivered one more kick for good measure.
âDude, you reek.â Tim gagged, shaking his head as he crouched down to ID the cronies at Jasonâs feet. âWeâve gotta get you to a shower, man.â The Beta didnât mean anything by it, and Jason knew that. But as he re-holstered his twin pistols on his back, he couldnât help but want to throttle the kid. He hated feeling this way.
Jason took a deep breath and held it, counting to ten, then thirty seconds before slowly releasing it. He needed to go back to the safehouse. He needed to go home. He stalked over to his motorbike, noticing the red and blue lights in the distance growing nearer.
âNo worries, Jaybird! We all smell bad after a decent workout!â Dick slapped a hand onto Jasonâs back. âHow about we head back? Clean up, eat, and play some Parcheesi, huh? â Heâd looped Tim into a headlock as they made their way to their bikes. âThe nightâs still young!â
âGod, youâre old.â Tim laughed, wriggling out of Dickâs arm.
âYeah, Iâll pass.â Jason grunted. His bike engine hummed as he situated himself in the seat, taking a moment to stretch the muscles in his neck. When had he gotten so tense?
âOh! That reminds me!â the other Alpha perked up from his bike. âI left my nice socks at your place. Mind if I grab them?â
âSure, man.â Jason rolled his eyes. âJust donât make a mess looking for âem like you did last time.â He grunted and sped off, his two brothers trailing behind.
The ride back was quicker than Jason had anticipated. His mind was preoccupied with the mystery of his growing irritation. But where was it coming from? He thought heâd worked past the whole âedge-lord-angstâ, so what was it? The questions churned, his fists clenched against the handlebars of his bike.
As he pulled into the hidden driveway of the building, his recent outbursts played on a loop in his mindâthis anger, this aggressionâit felt familiar. He let out a sharp sigh, dismounting and heading for the door. It had to be his rut approaching. It was a bit early, but not impossible, he reasoned. If he could just hold out until his brothers left, heâd be in the clear.
They climbed up to the safe house at the top of the apartment complex. Jason shoved the front door open, his brothers chatting behind him. He placed his helmet on the counter near the door, shucking off his jacket and gloves as he and his brothers shuffled into the foyer.
The front room of the apartment was dark and quiet, but something in the air smelled delicious. Had you cooked something? Or baked? It was a scent he couldnât quite place, but it carried the same allure as you. It made his mind swirl and his mouth water. It was almost as if-
Youâd gone into your heat.
Jasonâs hand stopped halfway to the light switch. Fuck, heâd knownâyouâd both been tracking it, and somehow, he still forgot. That would explain why his rut came so early. He heard Dick take a sharp breath.
No.
Jason rounded on his brothers, hackles raised, a low growl rumbling deep in his chest. The sound vibrated in the air, a warning that cut through the silence. With his rut bearing down on him, his Omega alone, lost to the throes of heat... He knew he was being irrational. And yet, the urge to tear them both to pieces clawed at him, raw and unrelenting.
The smell of danger thickened in the room, a warning that left no doubt: His brothers were no longer welcome. He needed them out. Now.
âHey, look, say no more.â Dick said, ever quick to pick up on cues, raised one hand in a placating gesture. With the other, he grabbed the collar of the Beta beside him, who had been attempting to squeeze further into the room. Now, Tim stood stock-still in his tracks.
âIn fact,â his younger brother piped up, âsay less.â The Beta and the blue-clad Alpha took a slow step back, cautiously making their way to the threshold. Dick knew if he or Tim made any sudden moves, Jason would attack and wouldnât let up until they submitted.
That wasnât something any of them wanted to deal with.
âIâll come back for the socks another time.â Dick huffed a laugh. Jason appreciated him for that, but his patience was wearing thin. For every step back his brothers took, Jason took one forward. He then grabbed the door and slammed it shut.
With Dick and Tim on the other side now and hopefully making their way out of his building, their presence lingering in the air like a threat, the urge to chase still clawed at him. You were in the next room and every instinct screamed at him to protect you, to secure his territory. A low growl rumbled in his chest as he fought the urge, forcing himself to focus. Kicking them out had been the right choice, but the Alpha still simmered beneath the surface.
After a moment, he hastily made his way over to the shared room where your scent was strongest.
Jason went to open the door, but the handle was locked. For weeks, he had been trying to convince you to take the necessary precautions to stay safe while you were alone. He was glad you had listened to him âexcept for now when he desperately wished you hadnât. His Alpha clawed furiously in his chest, urging him to get to you.
He lifted his hand, intending to knock on the offending piece of wood. Instead, he pressed his forehead against the door, digging his nails into the palm of his fist.
Deep breath in, and out.
His nerves settled, but just barely. Knowing you were right there on the other side did little to help. To him, everything that mattered lay beyond that door.
Your whine filtered through, and his adrenaline spiked again.
âBaby, are you okay? Do you need-â Do you need me? I can help you. Please let me in, he wanted to say.
He was shaking. He wanted to rip the door off its hinges, to tear it apart, but he would rather drown in the pits than make you afraid of him. So, he slid to the floor, trying once again to calm the growling in his chest.
Breathe in.
His head swam, dulled to everything around him yet acutely aware of your presence just a few feet away. He heard a scuffle and a soft tumble on the other side of the door.
Breathe out.
A few clicks sounded, and the handle turned in his grip.
Breathe in.
The door wrenched open, and he was struck with the most delectable scent.
In. And in. And innn.
Jason filled his lungs with it, tasting the air on his tongue and savoring the flavor on his palate. It was heady and warm, with the unmistakable and sweet lilt of an Omega in full heat. He opened his eyesâhe didnât even remember closing themâand there you stood. You were clad in the oversized tee he had worn before he left, the fabric hanging down to the tops of your thighs.
You were panting, dazed, your hair a mess from pulling at it as you spiraled into heat. Your eyes threatened to spill with frustrated tears.
You looked beautiful. And if he hadnât already been on his knees, he would have dropped to them at the sight of you alone.
He noticed the haphazard pile of cloth on the bed. Your nest. He was devastated. He wanted to be there for you, but he left you alone to bear this.
âJason, I-â You hiccuped, leaning forward with shaky hands. He straightened on his haunches, his hands gently trailing up the hot skin of your legs. You pressed your face against his temple, your breath warm and ragged.
âI need you, please..!â you sobbed into his jaw.
Andâshitâheâll help you. Heâd give you everything you needed, anything you asked for.
Jason scrambled up from the floor, his grip firm as he wrapped your legs around his waist. Holding you securely, he made his way toward the bed, every step deliberate, every movement careful.
âI got you, I got you,â he murmured, his voice low and steady, grounding you as he held you close. It only took two strides until he reached the bed where he placed you down into the warmth of the nest and made his way in himself, careful not to disturb the hard work you put into making it.
Before he could let you go, you pulled him into a steamy kiss, desperate and needy. He bit your lip tenderly then released it with another kiss of his own and trailed a large hand up your front to your breast, pinching and teasing one sensitive nipple and taking the other into his mouth, the large shirt bunched up at your neck. You moaned and your back bowed under his ministrations. His touch left a path of electricity tingling across your skin, it sent tingles down your spine to the tips of your toes.
He pulled the large shirt off you and threw it away from the bed. He tossed his own just as quickly. Jason then worked to take off his belt, eyeing your bare form hungrily.
You sat up, assisting him even though he didn't need it. You were frantic. As he threw his belt to the ground, you were already going after his fly.
"Shit.." Jason murmured, taken by how direct you were being.
You unbuttoned and unzipped his pants.
He pushed the jeans and underwear off his body, and he felt your hands reach for him. He quickly grabbed your wrists, firmly pinning them down to the mattress. You whined, and he responded with a low, rumbling growl. The sound wasnât just deep, it resonated through you like a live current, igniting every nerve it touched. It set your pulse racing, every thrum of his growl fanning a fire that refused to be contained. It was an Alphaâs call, raw and commanding, demanding a response your body couldnât ignore.
Your legs snapped open to beckon him closer, hips raising desperately, and you felt it. His cock lay on your front just reaching your belly button, it was thick and heavy, red and rippled with veins, his head so leaking with his arousal that it dripped onto your stomach. A wave of helplessness surged through you, leaving you trembling and mind reeling with each moment he spent not in you. Pleas and half-formed sentences tumbled out of your mouth like the tears from your eyes.
His thumb glided tenderly across your cheek, warm and deliberate, as if tracing the path of your tears. He pressed a lingering kiss to the corner of your lips, savoring the faint taste of saltâ he hated making you cry, but he loved the way you looked when you were needy like this. A guilty pleasure he would never admit.
He sat back up and hooked one of your legs over his shoulder. It was then as he went to line himself to your entrance that his breath stopped, he swallowed hard. Any other time he would work you open slowly, and he figured with your heat, he wouldnât need to, but goddamn.
Your pussy was drooling.
He wanted to have his fill of you, to taste you and spell his name on your clit with his tongue over and over again. Marking you in one more way for himself. And fuck, he just might... He was salivating at the thought of getting his mouth on you.
Breath ragged, Jason traced a thumb up the seam of your opening, gathering your slick and almost dipping his finger into you before he pressed teasingly to the bundle of nerves at the top. You hissed a whine and arched your hips up for more. He instead pulled back his hand, where a sticky, thick trail of your own slick followed behind, it reminded him of honey. He popped it into his mouthâ And tasted just as sweet, he groaned.
âJason, please- I swear to god if you donât do something,â Your voice snapped him out of his reverie. His eyes flicked to your own and down where you gripped desperately at his thighs and raised your hips once again, willing him to fuck you like he ought to, like he promised.
He then finally, finally started to push into you. Youâre tight and warm. He rocked into you slowly, you can feel his cockhead slip in, parting you, and all your thoughts dissolved on your tongue, swept away by the sudden rush of pleasure that rendered your mind blank. At Jasonâs final thrust, his hips are pressed flush against your own.
You felt deliciously full, and he watched your eyes flutter closed as you savored the momentâs perfection. A warmth spreading through you that almost made a purr rumble in your throat. You felt all of Jason inside you, filling you, pressing you. Amazing. So much better than your fingers.
His eyes locked with your hazy ones, your gaze glazed over with a debauched satisfaction.
âHow you doinâ, babe?â He huffs out.
You lick your lips and nod to him. He pressed his forehead to yours and laughed, low and breathy.
He was shaking holding himself there, steady for you to get used to his stretch until you carded your fingers through his hair in a silent plea.
To which He slowly pulled his hips away and promptly snapped his hips back to you. The sound that fell from your lips was wanton and so, so perfect. That had his Alpha howling. He needed another.
Jasonâs restraint shattered, and he gave himself over completely to blind, ravenous, ruthless carnality.
Your voice went higher, shameless in its desire as he fucked you like his life depended on it. Pistoning himself into you, the headboard slammed repeatedly against the wall.
Although he fortified the apartment with soundproof doors and walls, Jason was sure even the neighbors two floors down would know his name.
Let them hear.
And he told you as much, your moans tumbled out of you non-stop, falling right into his ear and it sent shivers down his spine. He ran his tongue over his teeth before lapping at your neck and nipping at the tender and swollen scent glands there.
âShit, please, Jason.â
Your voice high and full with need as you clutched at his shoulders and slammed your hips up to meet his own. You wanted him closer.
You felt the bite break skin, your body seized up and tightened around him as you keened with abandon. The Alpha tightened his jaw, tongue lapping up the blood as it seeped from the wound, beastly sounds pouring from somewhere deep in his chest. You had never felt anything so right in your entire life as this Alpha's teeth buried in you.
You frantically clawed at his back and writhed against him as you came, trying to push him away or bring him closerâ you didnât know. Jason held you tight all the same.
Jason was everywhere, he squeezed your waist, fondled your breast, mouthed under your neck then kissed you so deeply it was dizzying. Your Heat made him delirious, it wrapped around him and held him tight. He wanted to drown in you, to lose himself in every breath he took, as if you were the only thing keeping him alive.
Now Jasonâs pace was growing erratic, he took your legs and folded you in half, bringing your knees to your shoulders and holding them there in his bruising grip. His voice fanned hotly against where he was pressed to your jaw.
âFuck, fuck, fuck-â
You're practically suffocating up against him, chords of the muscles in his neck strained against your face as you tried to meet him thrust for thrust. You wanted more of him and to feel him deeper. In that moment you didnât think, acting only on instinct as you sank your teeth into Jason's neck.
His eyes rolled back and you moaned into the flesh in your mouth as you both came. He thrusted himself in deep, filling you with his hot seed as he milked out the last shivers of your climax. He felt himself swelling, throbbing, his knot plugging you up and keeping him inside you. When you both stilled, panting and spent, he felt you release your bite and he gently lowered your legs to the sheets.
It took a solid minute or two before you came back around, limbs splayed, body jelly. Jason petted the shine of sweat from your brow, both of your breathing still heavy.
âGood?â Jason managed.
You nodded, and nodded, and nodded, mouth open. He smiled.
Jasonâs gaze landed on a half-empty water bottle sitting on the nightstand. Snatching it up, he uncapped it in one swift motion and gently lifted you, pressing the bottle to your lips. He didnât move, watching intently, until he was sure youâd had your fill. Only then did he take a long swig for himself before setting the bottle back on the table.
Itâll be about a half hour before the swell of his knot went down, he reasons. He tucks his hips in close and rolls you both over so you lay on top of him, careful not to tug on where you were tied together. He pressed a lingering kiss to the top of your head, feeling the soft rise and fall of your sigh against him. You kiss him back, fluttery and soft and tired just under his jaw.
ââ
Quite a few hours had passed, and it was daybreak now.
There was a clock on the nightstand by the bed, but he hadnât bothered to read it and he didnât care to. You consumed his every thought as you lay beside him, fast asleep.
After that first wave, positions began to change. He held you up and against him, jackhammering into you as he spread you open in front of the full length mirror across from the bed. He was below you and you rapidly bounced on his cock wailing and moaning as he fingered your clit. You were on your knees on the bed, his old shirt pressed to your mouth, fingers gripping the bed sheets as he kneaded your ass in delirious appreciation and left bites up your spine.
Now, you were sprawled on your back, one arm stretched wide while the other rested lightly on his, as if even in sleep, you needed to feel him close. The sight tugged at something deep within him, and he couldnât help but smile. The moment filled him, rich and sweet, like honey spreading across his soul.
He laid on his side with his head in his hand as he lazily traced every mark on your warm skin. You were beautiful, a work of art.
His gaze lingered on the angry red bites scattered across your neck, a vivid reminder of his claim. A low purr rumbled through him, his Alpha stirring with satisfaction at the thought of bearing identical marks, a matching testament to the bond that tied you both together.
His eyes moved over the rest of your body to see trails of hickeys and bite marks, disappearing into the place between your legs where he had resided earlier.
He kissed your forehead and slowly, carefully left the bed. He stepped over the articles of clothing and bedding strewn across the room and made his way to the bathroom.
He returned to your side with a wet washcloth, and he gingerly shifted your leg to clean away the mess in between. He saw how swollen your entrance was, still leaking with his spend and your slick, and the second set of bite marks on your inner thigh. Mating marks.
The bruises on your body and scratches on his would fade over time, but these and the ones on your neck would stay.
After tossing the washcloth into the basket of soiled clothes, he retired back to the bed with you, lifted the blanket over you both and pulled you back into his embrace.
And as the morning light streamed through the curtains, casting a soft glow over you, he continued to take you in. Although he wasnât there for the beginning, he vowed to be there for you everytime after.

Lmk what you think!

How the Boys from Yu-Gi-Oh Would Kiss Their Partners
No one asked for this, but I couldnât resist writing about how the boys from Yu-Gi-Oh! would share sweet, heartfelt kisses with their partners. These were my very first fictional crushes back in the day, and I think they deserve a little spotlight for their romantic side!
Yugiâs kisses would be gentle, sweet, and full of affection. Yugiâs shy and thoughtful nature means that his kisses with his partner would be deliberate and meaningful, often starting with hesitance but growing in confidence as their relationship deepens.
First Kiss:
His first kiss would be tentative and a little clumsy, his nerves evident. Heâd pause to gauge their reaction, his violet eyes wide and searching for reassurance. Once he feels their response, heâd relax, the kiss becoming soft and heartfelt. "Iâve⊠never done this before," he might admit afterward, his cheeks burning as he glances at them nervously.
Everyday Kisses:
Yugiâs kisses would often be quick, like a brush of his lips against their cheek or forehead, especially in public. In private, heâd take more time, savoring the closeness and letting his love for them shine through. "I just wanted to remind you how much you mean to me," heâd say, his voice soft and full of sincerity.
Passionate Kisses:
When the moment calls for it, Yugiâs kisses would be surprisingly deep and intense, fueled by his growing confidence in their relationship. His hands would gently cradle their face, his thumb brushing their cheek as he pours his emotions into the kiss.
Joeyâs kisses would be passionate, spontaneous, and filled with warmth. Joey is bold and expressive, and his kisses with his partner would reflect his fiery personality and his deep affection for them. Heâd kiss them like he has something to proveâbecause to him, they are everything.
First Kiss:
Joeyâs first kiss would likely be impulsive, happening in the heat of an emotional moment. Heâd pull them close suddenly, his lips capturing theirs in a kiss thatâs slightly messy but brimming with emotion. "Sorry if that was too much," heâd mutter afterward, scratching the back of his neck and grinning sheepishly.
Everyday Kisses:
Joeyâs kisses would often be playful and teasing. He might sneak a kiss on their cheek or forehead when they are not expecting it, laughing at their reaction. "Couldnât help myself," heâd say with a wink.
Passionate Kisses:
When Joeyâs emotions run high, his kisses would be all-consuming. His hands would grip their waist firmly as he leans into them, the kiss full of fiery passion and unspoken promises. Heâd pull away slightly, his forehead resting against theirs as he murmurs, "You drive me crazy, you know that?"
Setoâs kisses would be intense, deliberate, and deeply intimate. Setoâs reserved nature means his kisses would be rare but meaningful. He wouldnât kiss his partner lightly; when he does, itâs with purpose and a level of vulnerability that he only shows to them.
First Kiss:
Setoâs first kiss with them would be slow and measured, as if heâs testing the waters. His hand would cup their cheek or the back of their neck, his touch firm but tender. Despite his usual confidence, there would be a moment of hesitation before he leans in, his lips brushing theirs in a kiss thatâs surprisingly soft. "I donât⊠do this kind of thing often," heâd admit afterward, his voice low and slightly vulnerable.
Everyday Kisses:
Setoâs kisses would often be subtle, like a light press of his lips against their temple or a kiss on the top of their head when they are not looking. These moments would reveal his quieter, softer side. "Donât overthink it," heâd mutter when they teases him about his affection, though the faint smile on his lips would give him away.
Passionate Kisses:
When Seto allows himself to let go, his kisses would be intense and consuming. His hands would frame their face as he leans in, his lips moving against theirs with hunger and devotion. Heâd pull them closer, leaving no space between them, his actions silently saying what words cannot.
Yamiâs kisses would be deep, reverent, and filled with emotion. Yamiâs commanding presence and strong emotions mean that his kisses with his partner would feel almost sacred. Each kiss would be a blend of his intense love and his unwavering devotion to them.
First Kiss:
Yamiâs first kiss would be deliberate, his amethyst eyes locking onto theirs with a smoldering intensity before he leans in. The kiss would start slow, almost hesitant, before deepening into something that speaks of his soulâs connection to theirs. "Iâve wanted to do that for a long time," heâd whisper afterward, his voice low and filled with emotion.
Everyday Kisses:
Yamiâs everyday kisses would be thoughtful and meaningful. He might kiss their hand in a gesture of chivalry or press his lips to their forehead as a quiet reminder of his affection. "You are my greatest treasure," heâd say, his tone reverent.
Passionate Kisses:
When Yamiâs emotions run high, his kisses would be powerful and all-encompassing. Heâd pull them into his arms, his hands moving to their waist or cupping their face as he kisses them with fervor. His kisses would leave them breathless, his devotion evident in every touch. "You are everything to me," heâd murmur against their lips, his voice raw with emotion.

jason todd with a partner whoâs afraid of guns
ft. gn!reader, mentions of guns (obviously), other weapons, potential home break ins, just jason being a little paranoid but we love him for that anyways



i imagine he would already have his vigilante and personal life very separate (he's just a guy :( who wants some normalcy and domesticity)
so i don't really imagine him letting his partner see much of his red hood persona
like he's not exactly bringing you to fights or anything even remotely dangerous
so, knock on wood, youâll never have to see him actually shoot anybody, but he will still try to find ways to keep you safe when heâs not there
probably soooo very very protective of you, like even if he was practically in love with you, would hesitate to start a relationship until he's sure that his enemies won't have a way to use you against him
he's going to like one safe house to store his stuff and then probably another one just to throw people off of his tracks before he heads to your place
i think if his partner wasn't afraid of him guns at home, like is just scared of handling them, he would probably have one on him when he's going home
to protect himself because he could be attacked anywhere and also in case something happens at home (his worst nightmare is walking home to an empty apartment when he knows you should be home and in bed)
and he normally would have a stash of weapons in the house, including guns, in case either of you have to defend yourselves
like preferablyyyyyyy he teaches you the basics like how to load a gun, turn the safety on and off, and shoot, but if not there are plenty of other weapons to choose from
and heâll let you know where they all are (itâs not hard, like youâll probably run into a few on accident throughout the day anyways) and will tell you where the guns are so you can avoid them if you so wish (heâll probably have them in case heâs home and needs them though)
super paranoid guy but considering everything he's been through and how many people he's antagonized in gotham, makes sense
however, if his partner is afraid of even having them lying around, he's definitely willing to make some changes. he still uses them while he's fighting, but subconsciously, he might be less likely to reach for them
he's not bringing any guns home (probably just settle for some knives, idk why but he seems like he would steal batarangs for funsies so he might have some on hand)
like heâll drop off his guns when he gets to one of his safe houses and then arm himself to the moon with other stuff (sorry again i fear he is a little paranoid but like itâs understandable)
as far as weapons in the house...i think he'll still have a few guns, just in case, but he'll make sure it's not somewhere you could easily find them, like if you guys both have your own offices then heâll leave them in his
honestly, for your peace of mind, he probably won't tell you the exact location, just lets you know that there are a few for life or death situations (unless you ask for the location, in which case he's more than happy to tell you)
so many other weapons though. i genuinely don't think he'd compromise too much on that one. again, if you don't like sharp objects or anything like that, at the very least, he is putting pepper spray in every room and a metal baseball bat
and probably some flares, smoke bombs, nonlethal stuff so you can run to safety if you don't want to deal with the assailant head-on, but best believe youâll know how to use all of them very well
and thereâs always self defence moves, although i think he prays that you never have to get to that point
why am i imagining jason practicing escape routes with you from different places in your apartment like it's some sort of fire drill
âokay pretend iâm the attacker and i come in through the window with a knife while youâre washing the dishes. what are you going to do?â
âcry?â
âno, sweetheart, remember, if youâre in the kitchen and they donât have any long distance weapons then you go with escape plan C.â
âbitch how tf am i supposed to remember all of the plans.â
HE DOES IT OUT OF LOVE
will actually stress tf out if you donât do it so uhhhhhhhhh yeah iâd start studying
will make you practice it every once in a while just to keep it fresh
and itâll be random too because âcrime doesnât give you a heads up in gothamâ
on the plus side if you have any weird requests heâll probably feel bad and do them
like if you want fresh flowers in the house at all times? babe, he was going to do that anyways. onlt the best for you
you want to decorate the house in whatever style you like? hereâs his card (being a crime lord does make good money)
doesnât matter if he likes it or not, itâs only fair. you get to decorate your place with cute throw pillows, he gets to hide a few daggers under the sofa, same difference
or like if you want his location at all times? and hourly check ups?
honestly, heâs touched that you care about his safety as much as he cares about yours. heâll make sure itâs encrypted so nobody can hack into your phone and see that, but heâs more than willing to whip out his phone in chasing down some villain to tell you heâs gonna be late for dinner or whatever
guys, at the end of the day, he just really loves and cares for his partner, and he'll do whatever makes you the safest and most comfortable
he has someâŠinteresting habits but itâs all to make sure you stay safe
and he makes up for it by bringing home little trinkets that remind him of you and planning elaborate date nights and all of that cute stuff to show how much he cares
and who knows, if you still remember escape plan p maybe heâll have a little treat planned!
