Who: Jason Todd and YOU!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Marsiva
When: A few hours before the shuffle.
[ The broadcast begins with a close-up of a man's face, brow furrowed, head tossing slightly in the throes of some flavor of bad dream. His mouth shapes words that could be no and Mom. When he starts to move more energetically, the camera zooms out and pans down, giving the audience a good view of the thrashing and -- yep, that's actual fighting, pure muscle memory and surprisingly good technique, given that he's unconscious. Probably a good thing this guy's sleeping alone, because anyone in bed with him would be being beaten pretty badly right about now. By the look on his face, though, the fight he's dreaming about is one he's losing, no matter how good he might be.
There's a sharp indrawn breath when he wakes up, but besides that, the biggest clue is that he goes perfectly still for a moment. Then he takes inventory, eyes still closed, flexing his ankle to test for the feel of the boot knife, stretching and moving in ways that would let him locate weapons by feel, rather than just reaching for what he should have on him and letting anyone watching know just where he hides the goodies.
...Nothing. He opens his eyes, reaches for the ones that would be less obvious -- nope, even the garrote wire's gone. Whoever searched him was thorough.
Though somehow his jacket's back, and in one piece. Huh.
He sits up, looks around for a minute, and then speaks to the empty air. ]
...Hey, Bats, if this was your idea, consider me incredibly unamused.
[ Or, wait, no, that's not right, there's something... he knows something... ]
Wait, I'm in space?

I'd believe that he thought good things about Robin. ...But that's not who I am anymore.
And I already know that he and I don't see eye to eye on exactly what that failure was. [ It's not the death that bothers him, it's that Bruce let the Joker live, afterwards. Took another Robin like what happened didn't even matter, just one more target for someone who'd learned that he could kill Batman's partner without any kind of reprisal. ]

[Even when Bruce made decisions she didn't like, ones that had caused her more pain than she'd thought she could ever experience, it had always been clear in his body language that he was trying to do what was best for her. He made the wrong choices more than once, with more than just her, but she had never seen it come from a place without love.
His version of it, at least. One of the things all of the people she'd worked with in Gotham had in common was their very shaky grasp on how to show they cared about each other.]
But he's not here. You are, and I am. Will we be friends?
video
That's not the subject at hand, though. ]
That depends. Does your friendship depend on being friends with Tim? Because thaaaat's kind of a dealbreaker.
video
Nope. Wouldn't ask for impossible things. Took him months, to like me.
video
[ He smiles a little. ]
video
Can we meet? After you're... off the Marsiva?
video
[ His smile widens a little: he wasn't expecting any of the Batclan to be happy to see him. The fact that he seems to be getting along with everyone but Tim is strangely gratifying. ]
What ship are you on? ...Or is there someplace else you'd rather meet up?
video
Three Twins. [That's the one where just about everyone walks around in various states of undress, you'd have the time of your life Jason.] Can meet anywhere, though.
