- has the nicest back muscles known to mankind. he’s so built, it’s not even funny, but the worst part is that he KNOWS and he abuses it all the time. just randomly flexing all the time to get you worked up.
- he always yells “honeyy, i’m homee,” when he gets home from long shifts. it started off as a joke, a silly, ironic bit, but for some reason it stuck around. it almost felt wrong not saying it.
- honestly, jason doesn’t really like the uniform, so you have to tell him he looks good regardless of what he’s wearing. he doesn’t like being covered in a huge rag… (his words, not mine) and he’s totally not fishing for compliments most of the time!
- he doesn’t like pda, but behind closed doors… he’s so so so affectionate. he’s like a cuddly cat who won’t leave you alone. his head is always in your lap, he’s constantly playing with your fingers!! and the unprovoked kisses... don’t event get me started, he just does not stop.
- jason DOES NOT fuck with candles, especially if they’re left unattended. he will scold you and he’s really annoying about it too, “babe, are you serious?? you could’ve burnt the house down!!”
- the most punctual man you’ll ever meet. date night at a restaurant? he’s there 15 minutes before the reservation. movies? you’re going early and watching all the pre show ads. he also gets mad when you’re late (not really tho), he’s just so sulky after. “that’s 10 minutes less I get to spend with you :(”
- long ass “I miss you” texts when he’s got long shifts. makes it everyone’s problem. everyone at work knows you by name and if they’re close enough, they’ll sending you pictures of him being moody.
fuck it here’s some dating firefighter!jason headcanons… there’s one suggestive pick up line at the very end, link to pt. ii here
- He often leaves your shared home in a chaotic state— hair disheveled, shoe laces untied and a piece of toast hanging from his mouth
- However despite his hastiness, Jason never seems to forget to kiss you goodbye. His lips would connect with the plump skin of your cheeks first and then travel to your lips. He’d mutter small a “I’ll see you tonight,” and send you a quick wink before running out the door
- He laughs at your jokes and always continues the bit. If you make a fire joke/pun, you know he’s about to make a million more
- “I don't need a fire alarm to tell me that you're on fire.” “Jay come up with something better please”
- Jason works late at the station, so on days where you have some free time, you bring him a shawarma from his favourite restaurant. He’s always surprised, but so unbelievably happy at the same time. If he’s not too busy, you’ll stay and steal a couple bites of his wrap while he tells you about his day
- He brags about you to his coworkers. Like a lot. They all know you by name and they often tease Jason for not shutting the fuck up, they’re tired of hearing about you (actually they’re just jealous)
- Jason is really protective over you, especially in public spaces. He always has his hand on the small of your back or has your hands interlocked. He guides you through crowds and makes sure to keep close. On the off chance that you’re not near him, his eyes will still be on you. It’s never weird or overbearing though, he’s protective, but he’s not over the top
- he regularly watches crime and law enforcement shows with you and has a habit of pointing out inaccuracies (especially when the fire department’s involved). It’s annoying because he talks a lot, but also, it’s so cute when he gets worked up over the small details
- “The fire escape isn't the only thing I want to go down on.” “JASON WHAT THE FUCK WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT…!! ;)”
I’ m imagining Jason accidentally bumping into reader who so happens to be a school teacher and he can’t help but flirt just a little bit whilst the class of kids he’s educating on fire safety look at them both with wide eyes😃
I absolutely love this idea so much! I wrote something based off of this ask and low key went a little overboard with world building, but I hope you enjoy nonetheless!
Field trip mornings always created an exciting buzz amongst your students. Their gentle chatter filled the chilly parking lot of the old school and you giggled at their enthusiasm.
The moment brought a sense of nostalgia, it engulfed your heart in a warm embrace. It reminded you of your days in elementary school. The memories of bitter autumn mornings and your teacher’s frustrated attitudes played before your eyes. You smiled thinking about your past and how those small experiences inspired you to pursue a teaching career.
This field trip was a special one as it happened to fall on Halloween Day. The children complained about having to come to school on the holiday, but as soon as you mentioned that they could come costumed, the excitement was back. Your third grade class did not disappoint, they were all dressed in bright costumes for their first ever visit to the fire station.
The bus ride was fairly normal. The children were a mix of both calm and rowdy. You intervened every once in a while when their noise level got too loud, otherwise the students were well behaved.
Entering the fire station was like entering a dream. The foyer of the building was warm and inviting. The heat radiated off of the walls and it made you slip off your coat. There were Halloween decorations coating the pale walls and you watched your children ooh and ahh with excitement.
Your eyes were still scanning the room when a tall man walked over towards you. He wore his uniform around his waist with a black compression shirt that hugged his body. You could see a sleeve of tattoos on display and a thin silver chain peaking through from under his shirt. Despite not wearing your coat anymore, you still felt your body heat up.
You stared at his name tag—Jason, it read. You recalled the name from the numerous emails and phone calls you had exchanged in order to make this tour happen. You always thought his voice was sweet, but you had never imagined him looking like this.
He was attractive—breathtakingly so. His eyes radiated a bright shade of emerald and were full of life. He had heavy bags under his eyes, which, you assumed, were from working long hours at the station. His facial features were sharp. His cheekbones stood high and his hooked nose sat perfectly poised on his face. He looked like a Roman sculpture. Your eyes trailed down to his lips and you noticed a small scar on the right side of his mouth. You felt your fingers twitch, almost as if they were itching to trace the mark.
Jason cleared his throat, pulling you out of your deep trance and you felt goosebumps trailing your skin. You quickly spoke up, trying to ease the tension.
“Hello, my apologies, I completely zoned out, it’s been a long morning,” you said, desperately hoping that he believed the poor excuse you made to justify openly checking out the man.
You suddenly felt even more uncomfortable, you looked to your side only to notice all of your students staring right at you. You felt yourself getting flustered again, but quickly moved past the feeling. You extended your hand to shake Jason’s calloused ones. His eyes raked your figure and he gave you a sly smile.
“It’s okay,” he responded gently. “Shall we get started with the visit,” he changed the subject quickly and you couldn’t be happier.
Jason turned his attention towards the children and greeted them with an enthusiastic expression, his passion for his job clearly reflected in his way of speaking.
He led your tiny class towards the breakout rooms of the fire station. On the way to the rooms, Jason pointed out one of the girl’s Wonder Woman costumes and he shrieked in an endearing sort of way. He kneeled to the girl’s height and handed her a small sticker. She smiled, thanking him. Jason then locked his eyes with yours and called the girl pretty, and you knew at that moment that the comment was not only for her, but for you too. You felt a rush of heat run through your cheeks and up to your ears.
The breakout rooms were similar to the foyer of the fire station. There were little skeletons propped up against the whiteboards and small jack-o-lanterns on each desk.
Once the children had settled, Jason handed the rest of them with fun stickers and pamphlets about fire safety for them to take home. He joked with the kids, and managed to sneak in a fire pun every now and then. He was a good listener, he paid attention to everything the children had to share. You turned your head to the side and silently admired his ability to work with the kids; not everyone could handle a group of eight-year-olds first thing in the morning.
Jason quickly gave the class a presentation about the dangers of fires and the importance of protecting yourselves when dealing with hot objects. It was odd, he wasn’t even trying to hide his flirtatious comments, he’d stare right at you upon the very mention of the word “hot.”
You noticed Jason had a habit of walking around the room, maybe it was to keep the students engaged or maybe he did it for his own reasons. But it had got to the point where he’d brush past you, almost purposefully. The parts of your skin that made contact with his body were on fire.
After the presentation, Jason decided it would be best if the kids got a quick break before continuing the tour of the fire station. You happily agreed, needing a break yourself.
You sat on a chair close to the exit, when one of your students came to you on the verge of tears—the culprit being a paper cut. You cooed at the child, gently cupping their much smaller hand and guiding them to your first aid kit. Unknown to you, Jason was watching the interaction play out.
He hadn’t known you long, but he thought you were stunning. The way your eyes crinkled when you smiled, the way your features sat against your skin, and the way you spoke with such eloquence. It was everything he found attractive, but seeing you showcase such patience with the “wounded” child, made his heart race. Not only were you beautiful, but you were kind—to Jason, in the very little time he had known you, you felt like an angel.
“Do you like them,” a small voice suddenly spoke. It was the Wonder Woman from earlier and Jason smiled.
“Ah the lovely Wonder Woman is back,” he replied, ignoring the child’s question. The little girl giggled.
“I think you have a crush on my teacher,” Jason raised his eyebrow. What did this little girl know about crushes? The child laughed again and said, “I think she might like you back.”
“What makes you say that,” Jason inquired, now suddenly interested. The little girl shrugged and made a face.
“I dunno,” and with that, she ran off, leaving Jason confused.
After the break, Jason guided the students to the main hall to show them the fire trucks. The energy was high in the room, the kids were beaming with excitement. The tension between you and Jason only seemed to rise though. With every passing flirtatious comment and every lingering look, you felt yourself getting more anxious. How inappropriate would it be if you asked for his number at the end of the field trip… you caught yourself thinking.
It was as if Jason had read your mind because at the end of the tour, he pulled you aside to thank you for bringing in the children and letting him have the opportunity to teach them. You grinned and also expressed your gratitude. You began to walk towards the students, when Jason grabbed your wrist and held onto you gently. He slipped a piece of paper into your palm and sent you a quick wink before heading out.
You stared at the small paper and slowly opened it.
Inside, the words read in messy lines, “call me,” with a string of numbers. You looked into the direction that Jason left, and smiled to yourself.
missing firefighter!jason hours so here’s some more dating headcanons, link to pt. i here
- starting off strong, dating jason means an endless supply of biceps pictures, shirtless back pictures… you name it and it’s yours (his exact words btw)
- whenever jason’s on his 24 hour shifts, he tries his best to keep you updated. he sends you little voice notes in a his tired voice (which is extremely attractive), his voice gets all low and husky and you have to fight the urge to call him.
- speaking of 24 hour shifts, jason is an exhausted man. he is constantly drained and walking around with dark bags adorning his emerald eyes. when he’s extra worn out, he becomes very clingy.
- jason likes to hold you close. he often falls asleep with his head resting on your chest. he occasionally makes you rake your fingers though his hair (he does this subconsciously and half asleep, it’s super sweet).
- oh and unfortunately, jason knows he’s hot (hehe) and he uses it to his advantage, that sly dog (lol it’s just him thirst trapping you into bringing him food)
- sometimes you pack lunches for him and leave cutesy post it notes on his meals and HE BRAGS!! his lunch is getting shown to everyone and their moms at the fire station, “guys, look what my partner made me today!”
- jason has that rotating photo slide show as his phone wallpaper and it’s literally just a million pictures of you. he smiles every time he opens his phone to check the time.
- he never stops with the shitty pick up lines, “hey babe, did you know that even my fire blanket can't put out the flames between us…” it’s usually followed by you rolling your eyes and smacking his chest playfully, “you’re so lame jay..”
Ok so I was thinking about this the other day. You know how Dick is usually a detective or a cop? Imagine Jason as a firefighter.
Mans will lift you like you’re nothing and I bet he’s in one of those firemen calendars.
I honestly think he would be amazing as a firefighter.
IM SCREAMING!! Here are some firefighter!Jason headcanons, I hope you like them!
- firefighter!Jason has a sleeve, his tattoos are all over the place, but they’re cohesive and very aesthetically pleasing
- he has a small calcifer (the little fire demon from howls moving castle) tattoo hidden somewhere on his arm
- he adores his job because he loves helping and protecting people
- he’s kinda cringey and he makes fire/heat puns and jokes when he’s on duty
- children LOVE him because he’s so kind
- he always volunteers to do tours of the fire station with kindergarten and middle school kids
- he hands out lollipops and stickers at the end of each tour
- he’s really strong and can lift anyone (regardless of their weight or height), he spends a lot of time training his body and is very proud of it
- he is low key a SLUT!!! let me elaborate: yk when firefighters wear their uniform only around their waist and legs, and the top half is like a normal shirt…? yeah so imagine that with Jason.
- he walks around the fire station wearing a black compression shirt and it’s hugging his body so deliciously. you can see bits of his silver chain sticking out and his tattoos are on display… he looks so HOT (noo im turning into cringey fire pun Jason…)
- when he first joined the force, he thought that saving cats and animals from trees wouldn’t be a common occurrence
- it was. and he took home two strays.
- he named them arson and sparks (shout out to the two cats i saw at the pet store)
- as much as Jason is a silly little guy, he also takes his job very seriously
- he spends time comforting victims and trying his best to make sure that they’re safe
- if there’s a house fire, he tries to save everything but definitely does prioritize items that could be sentimental or of value
- he never leaves candles burning for too long, same with irons and stoves
- he is very careful and constantly warning people about potential fires and the consequences of not being careful around hot objects
- okay let’s go back to silly
- this one time the guys at the station made a bet and the loser had to take pictures for a “hot firefighter” calendar… yeah… Jason lost…
- his shirtless pictures were plastered all over the station the next day and he wasn’t even embarrassed
yeah so what if i gave mr. firefighter jason some funky glasses and a scruffy beard... then what...
On the days that Jason came back from his 24 hour shifts at the fire station, he always thought he looked like a mess—almost as if a chaotic storm had struck his way.
However, what he didn’t know was that he looked quite the opposite. To you, it felt as if a radiant countenance had decided to visit your home.
His dark curls were disheveled from the constant raking of his fingers and his eyes were permanently stained red as they burned with exhaustion. They were tired, but they held a million stars. There was a small pout on his face and you always had to resist the urge to kiss it away.
He wore a pair bold glasses to help ease the burning sensation in his eyes. The late hours and lack of sleep blurred his vision. They were ridiculously oversized and a deep shade of emerald green. They were odd and unconventional, but for some reason, he made them look good. The frame perfectly complemented his strong features. He looked poetic, like a carefully put togther sonnet.
The glasses were a part of the problem, but the main culprit for his alluring appearance was the beard he refused to shave.
It was dark and scruffy, much like his hair, but there were hints of nickel. Despite only being in his 20’s, the greys had started making an appearance. Too much stress from the job and his countless packs of cigarettes weren’t really helping the case either.
The beard covered his sculpted jaw, but added another layer of beauty. It scratched and itched your skin when he’d nuzzle his face against you, but the feeling was oddly pleasant.
Jason was captivating. He was kissed by Aphrodite, a sunset after a long day. He was gorgeous, you just wished he knew it too…
firefighter jason makes sure he's always the one to save you. yeah he'll be a little bitch and gently oush his coworker away so he can be the one to help you
OH THIS IS SO GOOD!! You just gave me such a good idea for a “first meeting” scenario, let me know what you think and please feel free to elaborate!!
You’re stuck in a building that is about to collapse due to a massive fire. You can see firefighters approaching and trying to diffuse the situation, but your vision is blurred.
You’re a coughing mess and your eyes are getting teary.
That’s when Jason sees you. It’s from a far, but the minute his eyes land on you, he’s mesmerized, absolutely captivated.
He sees that one of his coworkers is about to approach you, but before the man can walk towards your direction, Jason steps in.
“No,” he says. “You go look after the other people.” His coworker stares at him, confused.
“What the hell, she clearly needs help. Let me go,” the man says.
“I said go take care of the others, I got it okay,” Jason says sternly and his coworker walks away after hearing his tone. Jason then quickly makes his way towards you.
It’s getting hard for you to hold on. There’s too much smoke and you’re getting lightheaded. You feel as if you’re about to collapse. You prepare yourself for a fall and that’s when something catches you.
Two big arms are placed securely around your waist, preventing the fall.
Your eyes are met with a man’s face. It’s hard to make out the details, but you can see a small scar on his lip and a pair of dark emerald eyes, which seemed to glow under the orange hue of the fire. You hold onto his uniform with the last of your strength and he clutches on to you tighter.
“Hey, easy, I’m gonna get you out of here, okay,” his gentle voice coats your ears. You nod your head in response.
He begins lifting you in his arms and making his way towards the exit….
you have officially got me hooked on firefighter jason. the headcanon about him being so good with kids is what has me in shambles. this big tattooed guy covered in soot who ends up kneeling in front of a little girl he saved, wrapped her in an emergency blanket, and found a big bandage/piece of gauze and wrapped it around her doll’s shoulders so she could be warm, too. distracting her while the rest of the firefighting team works to help her family.
jason carrying the heavy burden of watching children experience trauma like that, losing family members and everything they’ve ever known. coming home from work and letting you wash his hair in the bath, humming softly as he speaks softly about the child he pulled from an apartment fire, or the cat he rescued from a tree. just small stories that humanize each and every case from the day.
i love it because watching him go from something so brutal and violent to something just as physical but helpful and community based is so important. jason todd is jaded toward a LOT of things but he loves his community. he loves the families and the children absolutely those trying their best in such difficult situations. anyway i love him
It was really not necessary to make me ball my eyes out, this is genuinely so so so adorable. Your mind is amazing!! I would like to add on to this as well!!
I always say that Jason is very soft and domestic, despite his past and this would translate into his firefighter job too. Especially when he takes care of children, the elderly or animals.
Jason may be this huge, scary looking dude with a rough past, but he has a heart of gold.
He takes care of the children, cradling their small hands in his large ones, while his coworkers focus on helping the children’s families. Jason always has a smile on his face and uses the most gentle tone when speaking to them.
He knows how hard life can get in Gotham, especially for the kids, so he always tries his best to make their life just a little bit easier, a little bit safer.
I think he would also go to schools and do presentations on fire hazards and the potential dangers. He would also show up for fire drills and would teach in a way that’s both fun and entertaining.
The children absolutely adore him.
He also often takes home stray cats that have found themselves in trees or other bad situations. He feeds them and makes sure they’re warm, before taking them to the vet or a shelter. If he could, he would try to keep them all at home with him.
Jason loves sharing stories with you, the good and the bad. You understand him and make him feel loved, comforted and safe. Some days, he’ll share stories over dinner, other days, the harder days, he’ll have his head gently placed on your lap.
He tears up sometimes, thinking about the things that some children have witnessed or the homes that families have lost due to fires and other disasters. It’s not the same, but it reminds him of his past.
Those nights, he just needs someone to listen and to take care of him. And you do just that.
