A Collision of Fates [Superhero Crossover]

That day, as usual, he sat on the roof looking into the distance while I wolfed down the food he'd brought me behind him.

He suddenly asked, "Would you like to have a name?"

I thought, What's the point of a name? But for the sake of the food he'd brought, I answered obediently, "Sure."

Then he flew into the air. No wires, no wind lifting him up. He looked like some cheap Photoshop job. And damn it, he'd even got a halo around the back of his head!

And then I became him.

He said that he was entrusting the fate of the mortal world to me through a name, and that I would bear every fate that came with it.

He said a lot of other things I couldn't understand.

But one thing was perfectly clear:

I can go to school, eat my fill, and wear proper clothes now!

All that just for adding a name? No big deal.

And his name is pretty nice, too.

Yeah, "Jason Peter Todd," with all four limbs intact and both parents alive.

Wonderful!

CP: Arkham Jason. Two Jasons means twice the happiness, squared, hehehe.
