vampire! jason todd tries not to make it obvious when he’s around you, because that’s the only rule that really sticks anymore. don’t let it show how much you want to be close, don’t make it weird and don’t make it noticeable. like that’s ever actually worked for him.

so he prepares instead, he feeds a bit more beforehand. not anything dramatic, just enough to take the edge off what he is now, enough to make the cold in his skin less like something that doesn’t belong near warmth. enough that when he’s sitting next to you, he isn’t constantly aware of the difference like it’s a third person in the room. in his head it’s practical. considerate, even. like he’s doing you a favour by making himself easier to be around. because he does notice it. the way warmth becomes something he has to think about instead of something that just exists naturally between people. he hates that part the most, not because of what he is, but because it keeps reminding him there’s a gap he didn’t choose.

it’s a stark reminder for him, that gap between you and him, the living and whatever he’s become, and he hates how much he thinks about it when he’s around you, hates that it even matters when all he wants is just to be near you without second guessing it. so he tries to adjust for it in advance, like that will make it easier, like that will make him feel less wrong sitting beside you. and you notice he feels a little different. not in a way you can quite place, just subtle, like he’s less guarded in a way that doesn’t make sense, like he’s stopped bracing quite so hard when he’s near you. you probably don’t realise the real reason and you probably don’t make the connection he’s too scared you might make, but maybe some part of your subconscious does understand anyway, in the way you don’t pull away, in the way you stay close without hesitation, in the way you make it feel like he doesn’t actually need to fix anything at all.

and you’d spent the night subtly reminding him, without ever saying it outright, that he doesn’t need to change anything about himself to be there with you.

Thinking of Superboy Prime wondering where the fuck you were in the universe.

You were a character with a few comic issues. And a few cameos here and there when a big threat was calling for an appearance.

You were, essentially, a mecha pilot. A mecha pilot that the DC writers tend to neglect because you were too op for your own good. And when you were introduced in the story? Your skills, wit, and intelligence were usually thrown out the window in favor of the writers torturing you and putting you through hell and back because some people just didn't fucking like you.

Superboy Prime always argues that if you were a male character, then you wouldn't be getting any backlash at all. But of course no one listens. 🙄

He doesn't care though. You were still an amazing character in his eyes.

if youre ever confused about why preboot!jason does something or acts in a certain way i ask you to consider that hes like 18 and super duper suicidal

“jasons methods in uth werent sustainable” he didnt intend to sustain them

“jasons a hypocrite and his motives are contradictory” teenagers arent known for being particularly rational

“jason didnt plan for the long term effects and power vacuum left by his takeover” jason didnt plan for the long term, Full Stop

“why does jason do the whole uth confrontation instead of just killing the joker” hes 18 and he wants his dad to choose him

“if jason is trying to reach out to people why is he such an asshole” he is reaching out to get them to kill him

“its egotistical for jason to think his approach is the only right one” have you met a teenage boy. like ever

i could go on but you get the point. if one questions preboot!jason todd then one must consider the fact that hes supposed to be drinking buzzballz under a bridge (or lowkey just jumping off of it) and instead hes dismantling a criminal network and replacing its leader with himself

vampire!jason todd doesn’t notice at first how much he’s started trusting you, not in any conscious way anyway, it just builds up in the background like something he forgot to question. it only really hits him in quiet moments, when there’s no crisis, no mission, no reason to be distracted, and suddenly he realizes how easily he’s let you become part of his life without guarding it properly.

and that’s where the anxiety sits. because nothing about his history has taught him that this is safe. people don’t stay, they don’t see everything and choose to stay anyway. especially not when they see what he is, what he does, the parts of him that are still iffy around the edges even now. he keeps waiting for the shift, for the moment you look at him differently, for the moment something he’s done finally tips the balance and makes you step back. but it never happens. you’ve seen enough. maybe not everything, but enough, enough to understand that he isn’t gentle all the time, that he isn’t clean, that he isn’t the kind of safe people pretend exists in stories. and still, you don’t turn away. you don’t weaponize it and you don’t use it as leverage.

and that confuses him more than rejection ever could. because rejection fits and rejection makes sense. it matches what he expects from the world. but consistency, quiet acceptance, staying even when there are reasons not to, that doesn’t fit anything he knows how to prepare for. so he keeps waiting for the other shoe to drop, even while it doesn’t exist. even while you continue to treat him like he’s allowed to take up space without being punished for it.

and the worst part, for him, is that he knows he’s done things you probably shouldn’t be okay with. things he isn’t even fully okay with himself sometimes and still you don’t leave, still you don’t change the way you look at him. it doesn’t make the fear go away. but it starts to complicate it, because every time he expects distance, you give him proximity instead. every time he braces for withdrawal, you stay exactly where you are.

and he doesn’t know what to do with that kind of trust, not really, except keep holding onto it like it might disappear the second he stops paying attention.

Takeout for two

bsf! jason todd x fem!reader, You like making him do your work and he has no objections. No he is NOT being held on gunpoint.

With summer starting, the one thing you look forward to is finally here. Summer vacation.

You were sitting soon scrolling on Pinterest at random stuff to cure yourself out of boredom, while your holiday homework drafted notes were all layered out, with scribbled notes and markers of the important parts, and random doodles you, Jason and your friends made mid class—speaking of Jason, you were just about to text him to bring you your favorite takeout from that one restaurant which could hopefully never go out of business (by how much you both ate from there, I’m sure they’re covered..) since it was right on the way to your house.

Before you could even open his messages, you hear your window opening revealing red hood himself. You, not even paying attention to the person who came in swoon over the bag of take-out in his hands.

“Do your parents not feed you?” he said with a smirk as he took his helmet placing it on your side table and sitting on the edge of your bed facing you and handing the bag to you. “The usual, may I suggest a tip? It’s not easy beating up bad guys and picking up take out for you.”

You slightly shift out of bed sitting up moving your notes out your way, the food is your priority right now. You hum ever so lightly, "depends on what types of payments you accept." You slightly pause somehow taken aback by something that left your own mouth willingly.

Jason lets out a slightly choked up laugh, "yeah? i'll take what i can get."

"gosh atleast let me finish my chowmein first!" you say making a face having to look up at him, "can you sit down? we can share, the least i can do for you getting me this."

"i think ill take you up on the other form of payment instead." he said sitting down in front of you taking off his jacket resting it on its usual position on your desk chair.

Flustered is the word that would describe your face best, but jason cant even see it. You put all your attention on your food trying your best not to make eye contact after all the comments you cant handle it, so you do what your best at, deflect deflect deflect.

After finishing up,

Jason paused the video you guys were watching on your computer while he sighed picking up the takeout boxes and your coke bottles, "you dont have to you know?" and as he always did, he cut you off before you could even finish. "I know, jus' let me?" he said shooting you a warm smile that only very few people got to see from him. Gosh, this man has the eyes of a sad puppy and they get you every single time.

He doesn't wait for you to say anything already sensing the defeat in your eyes as he got up to go to the kitchen pushing your door open from the edge with his shoe, both hands busy.

After a quick minute he gets back and enters your room closing it behind himself gently.

"So uhm,"

"Yeah, Jay?"

"I'm staying over, right?"

"i mean yeah, thats what--we planned?"

"yeah jus'---checking, i guess." he said, hands wandering to the back of his neck scratching almost nervously. "i didnt--"

"you left, your clothes in the bathroom so i kept them in my closet. I'll go get them for you? you can go wash up till then."

"yeah i, i'll go do that." he says with a small smile getting used to your little sequence before every sleepover. He gets back from patrol, you guys eat talking about stupid stuff that happened and then you guys almost pillow talk in bed, you always fall asleep saying you wont, to his rants. Not that his rants are boring, his voice is just too soothing.

He heads to your washroom, the toothbrush you gave him last time he came, his toothbrush still in the cup leaning into yours. He sighed getting ready to wash his face with the cleanser you forced him to listen about how you need to always cleanse and wear sunscreen and blah blah, he infact did start wearing it from that day. And how your strawberry vanilla shampoo softened his hair, surprising that it worked after how much grim and sweat he gets.

His bubble of thought then gets popped by a knock on the door, "jay? your clothes-" you said waiting for him to open the door as you stick your hand handing him his sweats and the shirt he wears almost all the time you see him.

As you both settle into bed,

you pull up the covers and scoot a little closer to him hugging your pillow as you prepare mentally to calm down and stop being so nervous, its not your first time with jason being so close. I mean, friends get this close right?

He turns his head down to look at you smiling with a small exhale of a laugh, "hi bug."

"hi jay" you murmur already tired hugging your pillow like it'll keep you awake.

He glances at your position, in the way you were laying down. "you wanna come here? you said you have the best sleep on my shoulder, orrr should i remind you? again?"

"noo i think i've been reminded more than enough by my friends." you say, still you pull your pillow to the other side discarding it for jason's arms. "scoot closer dummy."

"jeez no need to get your panties in a twist-"

"my panties are infact, not in a twist. Although i appreciate the concern."

Even in your sleep you need to quip back at him.

".. jay? im confused."

"about?"

"how come you didnt get yourself a batburger for takeout?"

with an exhale, "...goodnight."

"waaait, what about your payment?"

"...what about it?"

You slightly scoot up to reach his face, leaving a small peck on his cheek. Well, that must cover the 20 dollars he spent on your takeout.

"worth it." he whispered, quiet but not quiet enough for you not to hear.

a/n- can you tell how easily i gave up at the end i think i might work better with requests cause it gives me a base idea. THIS was supposed to be like a whole different idea which got broken down into what it is now.

SHOOULD I CONTINUEEE THISS..
