Video- Closed to Batfam/Wally/Jon + Roy

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ Jason didn't often do network posts, but a video filtered by @givesyouhell was sent to those he needed to see it. The video opens first off to the home in the background.

Only then does Jason turn so he can hold his phone up basically selfie mode with the manor behind him.]

Lil D, it looks like your dad sent a gift. I dont think it works that way but, I filled out the paperwork with the agent and we have the place to ourselves. And I mean that to everyone who can see this.

Jon, I have an idea by the way so I want to talk to you when I pick you up after school.

Cass and Blondie, your both in to. If you want. Wally and Roy, if you want there is room.

So, whose coming over?

[ Jon immediately tenses up. Had something happened to Bucky? He had said the house was safe. ]

What about it?

[hititwithacrowbar]

Well, the manor's showed up, and it's in my name now.You know how we were running out of room here, so I was thinking, instead of putting money we are short on, into renovating this house, we all move into that one, and rent this one out, and put all the money made from renting into an account for just you to use. Since this, first and foremost, is your house.

I want to know your thoughts.

[supersweet]

[ Despite it all, Jon feels a pang in his heart. This was his house. Where he and his parents moved in. It meant a lot to him and while they're not getting rid of it . . . But he had to be practical about it too. ]

I mean . . . it makes sense.

[hititwithacrowbar]

I thought it did, but I also know how it feels to have adults make choices without asking. Which is why I ask how you feel about it. Anything made off renting this house out will be yours, and yours alone. I promise that. With Wally and the others moving into the manor with us, money wont be as tight and we wont trip all over each other.

[ He puts a hand on Jon's head then and smiles the rare old Robin smile down at him.]

But, you and Little D are the two whose opinions matter to me. I didn't do all that work to get custody just to upset you guys.

[supersweet]

[ Jon smiles back with a faint quaver. ]

It's okay. The house isn't where family is. It's not the important part.

[hititwithacrowbar]

That's right.

[ he ruffles Jon's hair again before shrugging.]

So, want to come look over your new home?

[supersweet]

[ Jon beams. ]

Absolutely. Is my room big?

[hititwithacrowbar]

Of course it is, and actually you get a choice, because there are a lot of empty rooms, but there is a room full of red if you want it.

[ He starts towards the door for the car.]

[supersweet]

[ Jon sticks his tongue out playfully. ]

Just because my uniform's red and blue doesn't mean it's my favourite.

[hititwithacrowbar]

Well, it's mine and I wont even deny it. What is your favorite color?

[ He replied playfully. Thankfully once in the car its a short drive to the manor.]

[supersweet]

[ A beat. ]

Red.

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ Jason just rolled his eyes and chuckled. Time for that quick car ride. At least Jon knew the manor. ]

[supersweet]

[ Jon's eyes widen. ]

Woah. But — how?

[hititwithacrowbar]

I don't know, but it's ours. Me and Roy found it a few days ago.

[ Those were the best reactions. stopping the mustang he got out and pocketed the keys. Motioning Jon to go on in.]

[supersweet]

Does that mean Batman's missing a lair?

[hititwithacrowbar]

I don't think it works that way... but everything is mostly right. We just have our own lair.

[supersweet]

With all your stuff?

[ Because Batman had a lot of Stuff. ]

[hititwithacrowbar]

With all of B's stuff, I didn't live there. Not since I was a little older than Damian. Unless you mean that stuff. I haven't had to heart to look yet.

[supersweet]

I guess it's a little weird to see it pop up like this.

[ A whole manor. And it's not small in the least. ]

[hititwithacrowbar]

Yeah, and I know it wasn't here a few months ago. I used to come hang out in this area when I didn't want Dick to find me.

[ It was a classier area, and Jason was known for hiding in the slums.

He moved to unlock the door and push it open. ]

You, me, Little D, Timbers and Wally have first say, I invited Cass, Steph and Roy Harper, if you know them. And don't you worry about Timbers, I'll keep him on the opposite side of the house from you.

[supersweet]

[ Tim. Jon still feels a little bad about that. ]

Who are the others?

[hititwithacrowbar]

[ Jason does to, but he has a lot of mixed up feelings knowing Tim's not really dead back home either.]

Cass is Cassandra Cain, and Steph is Stephanie Brown, Orphan and Spoiler repsectively, though their timeline's not the same as mine so in their worlds their Batgirl and Steph was a female Robin and now Spoiler there. I dont know these timelines are hard. Cass is our sister, Steph is her best friend and Tim's ex.

Harper was my old partner, and a member of the Titans, he's Green Arrow's kid. [ Just a taste of venom when he speaks Ollie's name there.]

[supersweet]

[ Timelines are definitely hard. ]

I don't think I've met Green Arrow.

[hititwithacrowbar]

He's kind of a dick, so your not missing much.

[ Not that Jason's opinion matters on Oliver. But he flips through his phone until he finds a picture and holds it out to Jon. ]

Roy's the dork in the hat.

[ So sayth the dork in the helmet.]

[supersweet]

[ Jon isn't sure he's sold on the Green Arrow being a dick, but he nods, accepting that. ]

He looks like he's having fun.
