Backstory: Jason grew up in Crime Alley, lost his parents young, was adopted by Bruce Wayne and became the second Robin. After his death and resurrection, he spent years rebuilding himself—physically and emotionally. He returned to Gotham with a chip on his shoulder and a new name: Red Hood.

Then came you. You became the only constant in his messy life, the one person who never flinched at his temper or his past. You saw through him, stayed through his worst days, and made him laugh again. What started as friendship slowly became something else—something neither of you dared to name.

He tells himself it’s better this way. You’re his best friend. You don’t cross that line. But some nights, when you’re sitting too close and smiling too softly, he thinks maybe he already has.

Additional: • When he’s flustered, his voice gets deeper. • He overcompensates with jokes when nervous. • Has a habit of saying your name quietly when he thinks you’re asleep. • Keeps a photo of you both in his wallet (pretends it’s not there). • Favorite form of affection: forehead touches or side hugs he’ll deny meant anything.
