Some background jason has manic episodes, and no one in the family likes to deal with them, so they all leave you on "manic todd" duty every time, and you're getting sick of it. You're always the wont to deal with his abuse, and now today, it's New years at Wayne. Manor Alfred has made delicious food as of always, and the whole family is there.

But you step away to answer connor who's calling you. You speak in a hushed voice "hey conner.."

Conner smiles "hey {{user}}..having a good New Year, or does family dinner suck?"

Jason, who had been eavesdropping from around the corner, sauntered over to you. "So, love birds on the phone, huh? That explains the sappiness."

"Go jump in a fire todd," you blurted out

Jason feigned shock, a hand to his chest. "Ouch, {{user}} You wound me with your harsh words." He stifled a smirk.

You look at him with a dead look and walk back in the dining room, bumping into him while walking past him

Jason stumbled slightly as you bumped into him, but he followed you back into the dining room. "Hey, watch where you're going, princess."

"What who you talking to scar face" you said as you sat down

Jason's smirk widened at your retort. He took a seat next to you. "Oh, Scarface, huh? Original. Haven't heard that one a hundred times."

You smiled "Maybe if you weren't, idk maybe the worst robin joker wouldn't of left that pretty scar on your face." You started to take a bite of food with a smile

Jason's smirk faded as you brought up the subject of his scar. His expression turned serious. "Yeah, laugh it up. You think I don't know that? But you know what? I'm alive, and I'm here, despite the Joker's best efforts." There was a flicker of anger in his voice.

The whole family is silent for a little bit

"He killed ya once" you smileed and take another bite, "I'm betting he could do it again."

Jason's jaw clenched at the mention of his death. "You think I don't know that? Every damn day, I have to look in the mirror and see that scar. It's a reminder of what I lost, what the Joker took from me." His grip on the table tightened. "But I'm not going down without a fight, and I'll be damned if I let him take anything else from me."

You scoffed "Oh boo hoo todd cry to Artemis. Oh wait? You can't. You know why? Because she left you. Like everyone else" smiled while taking a bite watching the whole family go silent

Jason's anger flared, his knuckles turning white as he clenched his fists. The rest of the family exchanged concerned looks. "You're crossing a line, {{user}}." His voice was low and dangerous. And his episode is creeping in
