[Closed] Happy Deathday
Who: Jason Todd robintohood and whoever has CR with him
What: Jason dealing with his deathday anniversary
When: December 20th to 21st
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: PG-13 level violence and mentions of self-harm and suicide ideation
[The closer it gets to December 21st, the less present Jason Todd the civilian is. It's harder to catch him at the Descendant during this month because he hasn't been there as often as he usually is. He's not spotted as often at other places either his favorite libraries or any bookstores. Meanwhile, there's an increase in Red Hood appearances.
At first, the crime lord is seemingly burying himself with his work and trying to regain what his gang lost last month. Plenty of fights with other gangs, muscling in on territory, dodging bullets from mobsters. The beatings he dishes out on goons seem to have intensified. But as December 21st creeps closer, even most of that work gradually gets less attention from him.
The beatings continue though with a change in what information Jason wants out of his victims.
In place of most of his crime lord work are solo recon missions. Lots of decrepit properties are checked. Unused fairgrounds, warehouses, and even empty properties that used to be toy stores get searched. Jason's always on the lookout for reports of gruesome crimes involving things like deadly laughing gas, frozen smiles, and clowns too. Jason knows the Joker loves gimmicks.
For all of Jason's vigilance though, there's not even a chuckle or any other hint of the mass murderer. The quietness feeds into how unsettled Jason feels. He’s expecting something to happen. That's how the Joker works sometimes. He’s a sick freak who likes to put his own twist on special occasions.
So Jason keeps searching around Central City. That's what he tells himself what he's doing. He has so much rage, fear, and other negative feelings he doesn't want to contemplate. Once he finally kills the Joker he’ll finally feel at peace.
It’s either December 20th or it's December 21st when one might spot the Red Hood in Central City.
He could be zooming all over the streets on his motorcycle. He could be curbstomping and bludgeoning someone with a tire iron outside of a dive. He might be lurking on a dark rooftop overlooking the city, or staking out a waterfront warehouse.
Whatever the case is, he’s clearly in an extremely foul mood]

“You don’t speak to him,” he says angrily, ordering the man like he’s another shade. “You aren’t welcome here. Leave.”
no subject
“Nico, it’s me,” He says. “Jason.”
At this point, the teenager already knows more about Jason’s family than most people do. He’s friends with Tim and knows things about his family’s costumed life. He might as well know about the Red Hood too.

“I said no!” Another ghost is knocked away from the grave, its misty energy sucked down into one of the cracks in the floor. “I only want to talk to little one. And stop distracting me, Jason.”

“What are you trying to do?” He asks, gesturing at the pool. “What is that?”
no subject
Obviously. This can hardly be a surprise that it’s a summoning.
no subject
“The Joker. He was one of the Joker’s victims,” he says solemnly.
no subject
… oh but the ghost did say it was a clown. “He might not want to talk about it. I was going to help him cross over if he didn’t want to stay here.”
The ghost pipes up faintly. “Not supposed to go south of 17th. I want to go home.”

And he knows that this isn't a normal situation - if it does involve the Joker guy, well... that's Jason's only personal quest to solve. "How did you end up here, if you're not supposed to go south of 17th?"
CW: Death of a child
“Was taken,” he replies sadly. “He said he needed a guinea pig. See if it could put a smile on me.”
Jason’s blood goes cold at the response. It’s too painfully easy to imagine what happened.
“Was it a gas?” He asks seriously.
The ghost nods sadly.
“Tried to fight but…”
Andrew looks away from Jason, evidently not wanting to talk more of what happened.
Jason remains still as rage and sadness boil and mix in him. How many victims does there need to be before someone finally ends the Joker?
“Nico, can murder victims be put to rest?” He asks grimly.
