Summary
A few people have asked if I would make a series for my Fire Lord Zuko fics so they’re easier to read, so here we are! The fics aren’t linear, or necessarily connected (though I do recycle original characters, and occasionally reference an event mentioned in another fic) but you don’t need to read all of them in order to understand one of them, so you’re free to read whichever ones you want. Enjoy!!

Summary
Jason Todd returns to Gotham with a detailed plan for Batman, the Joker, and the new Robin he’s seen pictures of in the papers. There’s just one tiny problem with his plan: Batman is missing. Also the Joker is missing. And nobody has seen Robin in a while.
In unrelated news, there are two(?) teen vigilantes patrolling the streets of Gotham. Someone should probably do something about that.
--
Jason was going to find answers, and when he did, he was going to beat the shit out of someone. Who it was going to be depended on what the fuck, exactly, was going on.

Bookmarker's Notes
"So many people in Gotham are what they seem. You know a cat burglar who dresses like an actual cat. So if Gotham seems awful… maybe Gotham is just more honest about what it is than other cities. I’ve seen awful things in just about every country and more than a few territories and I can promise you that Gotham isn’t unique in that regard. Gotham isn’t terrible. Some people are, and some of those people live in Gotham. But some good people do too."
