He's sorry for that, but he's not sorry enough to walk away.
Guuuuh. Perfectly right, perfectly on and he's such a punch to the stomach when he's written like this and I LOVE you for doing it.
I also adore his thought process here, the way he ticks things through, measures them out and it's so Batman, but not. So hard and careful and guhincoherentgestures.
Crowbars hurt, Joker. So do bombs.
<3.
And if Batman wants to track Red Hood down, that's just fine, too. Red Hood will be waiting for him.God. This just . . . so good, bad incoherence, BAD. The shift from Bruce to Batman is like a blow and Jason is just so hard and NOT. Attention-whore mixed in with the recalcitrant, pissed-as-hell-and-armed child just breaks me ( ... )

:D :D :D I adore this lovely long feedback SO MUCH.
He *is*, Jason is a gutpunch with possibly brass knuckles. *hearts him*
As far as Jason is concerned, he's not Batman. He's just what Batman *should* be.
YES. Oh, yes, that -- Bruce to Batman *broke* me, and Attention-whore mixed in with the recalcitrant, pissed-as-hell-and-armed child eeeeee, I love your brain, because that's so totally Red Hood.
Jason's explosives are awesome. *pets the Jason + grenades story*
:D :D :D *rolls around in your lovely feedback of awesome*

Oh Jay, I swear, sometimes you're the only Bat with a lick of sense ♥

*ahahahahaha* And considering it's *Jason*, that's a tad terrifying!

Also, efficient and violent, just as Red Hood should do it. Just as Red Hood *is*.

Yes. Efficient, violent, and very pretty to watch.

She's putting the kids' lunchboxes together when Abigail switches on the television, and she braces herself to yell "no cartoons!" before she realizes there aren't any cartoons, and there won't be for a few days, and that Leroy won't ever go off his meds again and he isn't ever coming home.
She can tell herself it didn't hurt long, he isn't suffering any more, so the worst part isn't knowing Leroy's dead, isn't watching the video footage of Arkham twist on itself and burn as the news stations play it over and over, with visible glee at the ratings bonanza. The worst part comes when she goes to work: the ones who knew make stammered condolences, but after they leave her office she sees them with the others, all of them smiling and relieved.

Oh, man, yes. Because Jason would be sorry about killing the people who didn't have anything to do with it, but he'd do it *anyway*, and... and that hurts other people just as much as he'd been hurt.
The last sentence. Oh. Ow. Oh, *man*, I -- yes.
