Third Time's a Charm
A (Sort of) Jason Todd Story
-x-
The first time he died, it was a metaphorical death: the end of one existence and the start of another.
The second time he died, it was with a crowbar to the gut and an explosion that rang in the man he had come to see as a father's ears for countless months afterwards.
And the third time he died, it was because of Damian Wayne.

This fanfiction is a combination of multiple stories set in the fictional city of Gotham, but especially Jason Todd's - the second Robin that becomes the anti-hero/occasional villain Red Hood following his death. But this version of Red Hood's story has a little twist: Jason Todd was replaced with an original character moments before appearing in the Batman canon. As with other fanfictions following the "original character replaces a canon character" trope, OC!Jason's goal isn't to find a way back home. It's to fulfill his role in the story.
But things don't always go according to plan, especially when there's so many different "canons" to choose from when shaping his story.
This specific version of Jason Todd is mainly based on the Batman: Under the Red Hood movie, but with a few tweaks - namely, Dick Grayson and Jason Todd aren't the only two Robins who run around in Gotham. I'm currently just focusing on Tim Drake and Damian Wayne, but I definitely plan on adding more of the Batfam in the future. I'm also taking some inspiration from Young Justice, various DC wikis and, of course, Tumblr.
