An IOU (and Other Things That Aren't Owed) by Asidian

Summary
"Alright, asshole," says Jason and plunks a folder down directly on the keyboard of Tim's laptop. "I'm calling in that IOU."
Tim doesn't startle, not visibly. But all at once there's a batarang in his hand, the blade gleaming sharp. It takes him a second to register who the intruder actually is before he gives Jason a lingering, suspicious sidelong glance and tucks it away again.
"What IOU?" says Tim. "And how'd you get in here?"
He looks like shit, frankly. There are dark smudges under his eyes, and he's lost weight since Jason's seen him last. From the coffee cups scattered around the desk, it's probably even odds that he's on at least 24 hours without sleep.
"I work in mysterious ways," declares Jason. "By which I mean your window's open. You get kind of careless when you haven't slept, Timbo."

Summary
"Am I not allowed to talk to you?"
"We don't do talking." Not as Bruce and Jason. Not since the last time it blew up in his face. Literally.
"Well," Bruce keeps going, because he never knew how to take a fucking hint, "maybe we should start."
"Alright," he agrees, because it's funny. Because he misses him. Because it's been a shitty day, shitty week, shitty month, and it's worn him down. Because he's tired, and dizzy and nauseous. Because today, he really feels like ruining everything good he has left going for him. He's sick of the tension, and shouting and his blood on his father's hands. Best to blame the cigarettes. Must have made him anxious too. "Let's talk."
A look on Jason's skewed perception of love.

Summary
It is three nights after an ill-advised and migraine-inducing teamup with Batman and his groupies that Jason comes home to an envelope addressed “Red Hood” on his coffee table. None of his security system has been set off, which either means his mailman has died, become a ghost, and begun through-the-door delivery in his afterlife, or the letter is from one of the Bats.
Nightwing probably can’t even read cursive let alone write in it, Gordon would have sent an email, Jason can’t imagine what Robin the Elder, Batgirl, Spoiler, or Signal could ever want to tell Jason that badly about, Alfred calls, and Damian has never written Jason a letter in his life, which leaves only one option for Jason’s secret admirer. He’d rather die again than open it right now.
Or: Jason and Bruce become pen pals who live 30 minutes away from each other.

Summary
After fifteen-year-old Jason Todd claws his way out of his own grave, it’s not the League of Assassins that find him—but Father Michael.
Jason never becomes a killer.
Instead, he becomes a priest.
Five years later, a grieving man unknowingly walks into the confessional of the child he lost.
“Bless me, Father,” he says. “It’s been five years since I buried my son.”
Jason recognizes the voice instantly.
Or,
A boy dies. A man rises. A prodigal son returns home.
