SHRIEKS LIKE A BANSHEE

[As best as he can, Damian helps Jason lower to the ground in the back of the church in the dark. Hilarious. A church. Damian had been in here the night before begging his father (his real father) to forgive him for doing this, to two, maybe three, people, and to Jason Todd, the boy who had already died enough.

Squatting beside the other boy, Damian doesn't let go of the arm.] You think Father hated you for always being reckless and an idiot, Todd.

He should have, but he didn't. He believes everyone always has a chance to do good, even the worst. [Damian doesn't know if he'll get to see Jason again before this is over. He doesn't know if he will go to the train, if any of them actually will, or if they will all wake up suddenly in their own world again, clueless and forgetful. Yet it feels good to say it, here, now, knowing Jason can't look at him, can't hug him, can't argue him.

It feels good to say it even if it won't matter. Jason needs to hear it, and he thinks Dick would tell Jason the same thing.] Father was proud of you, and he tried to save you, and it almost broke him when he couldn't. He kept your Robin uniform in the Cave in a showcase glass. He almost killed the Joker, not because he was angry, but because he was sad.

You're not the only one who died. I did, too. Mother made a clone of me, and I fought him, and he won. [He puts Jason's arm carefully on Jason's chest.] But we both came back, and we're going to come back again because death can't stop the Family.

See you on the train, Todd.

[Jason is the second of the three, excluding Barnham and Percy. But instead of sitting like he wants to do, feeling heavy, he continues, only returning when he's finished to heave Jason over his shoulder in a fireman's carry. He disposes of Milla, Papika, and Jason together in the bonfire so nothing can be done to their corpses.]
