An As Far as the Yukon Feathursday
We hold several books illustrated by the noted American wildlife painter and book illustrator Francis Lee Jaques (1887-1969). He and his wife, nature and travel writer Florence Page Jaques (1890-1972), were avid outdoors and wildlife enthusiasts, and Francis illustrated several of Florence's published travel memoirs. As Far as the Yukon, published by Harper Brothers in 1951, is one of their later joint publications. The book recounts a journey taken by the Jaques along the west coast, much of it by train, from southern California to the Yukon. Florence Jaques makes keen observations about the birds she encountered for which Francis Jaques provided lively illustrations. Click on the images to see the bird species captions.

some Wayne gala shenanigans
Damian: Some people have no shame.
Jon, a plate of brûlée on his hand: What do you mean?
Damian: Tt. Those so called classy, but actually pretentious women are embarrassing themselves for not understanding the memo.
Jon: What memo?
Damian turns his eyes away from the sight of some women, trying their best to get his brothers' attention and to the said memo.
As said memo are two redheads, and a half kryptonian and half human eating by the food area.
more women approach his brothers.
Damian, frowns: We need to save Richard, Todd and Drake.
Jon: They do look uncomfortable.
Damian, sighs: I have to enter the battlefield.
Jon, pats Damian's shoulder: You will be remembered by your bravery, Dames.
Damian breathes and walks towards the inner circle.
before Damian can even say anything else, the women have started cooing at him.
Damian internally cringes and he hopes this would be worth it.
thankfully, Damian don't have to suffer long as Wally, Roy and Conner join the commotion.
Roy: Sorry, Jaybaby. *he has that crooked smile, that Jason personally adores, as he wraps an arm around his waist* I was caught up at the food buffet. Want something to eat?
Jason, internally thanks the heavens for Roy and leans close to him: Starved. Excuses, everyone.
Todd is saved. Check.
Wally: Come on, honey. *holds Dick's hand and leads him away* I deserve a dance.
Dick, smiles like an idiot and holds Wally's hand: I better go, ladies. He gets a temper. Have a good night.
Richard is saved. Check.
Conner, touches Tim's shoulder then his cheek: Want something to drink? You seem tired, babe.
Tim, finally feeling awake for the first time since this happened and touches Conner's hand that's on his face: Yes, please, babe. Ladies, will you excuse me?
Drake is saved. Check.
the ladies are left speechless. some are jealous. some are frustrated they can't get the Wayne fortune. but, some are in awe.
Damian, lightly smirks. It's never gonna happen, ladies. Now, enjoy your night. Excuse me.
he finds Jon by the sweets section.
Damian, nudges Jon's arm: Thank you for that, Jon.
Jon, smiles: It's nothing. I needed to save you too.
they give each other a high five then proceed to challenge the other on who can eat the most chocolate covered strawberries.

'familiarity' by redsray (reigned)
Author: @redsray
“Hey, who was it that sent the threat?” He asked, doing his best to subdue his grin. Hal raised an eyebrow but didn’t comment on it, so he must be doing decently.
“The Red Hood,” Hal confirmed with a sigh and Roy was two breaths away from rolling on the floor. No way. “He’s been running us in circles and we cannot get any hold of Bats.”
Roy choked on a laugh, disguising it with a cough. “That’s tough,” he said, with as much sympathy as he could muster. “Hope ya catch him, soon.”
“Me too, kid,” Hal said, getting up and ruffling Roy’s hair as he left to seemingly rejoin the conversation. “Me too.”
Roy watched him leave and let himself snicker as soon as he was sure Hal was out of earshot. He turned his head down, pulling out his phone and typing as quickly as possible.
Roy (5:59pm): DID YOU SEND A THREAT TO THE WATCHTOWER
Jay (6:01pm): Was I supposed to?

I just read a fic with Roy being Jason's Gay Awakening and solely for hilarities sake, just to torment Dickie bird, I want tiny Tim to have had a crush on Roy and the boys talking about when they realized they weren't straight.
Jason says the first time he saw Roy shirtless in the training room.
Flashes of toned, sweaty, taught archer's arms go through Tim's head. Suddenly his throat feels very dry and awkward. "Yeah, same." he croaks out.
Jason nods in approval, taking a sip of his drink. "Good choice, but buzz off replacement, I called dibs when I was fifteen."
Dick's just standing there, mouth hanging and really regretting bringing this up this topic.
Later Dick calls up Roy, and before he can even say anything shouts into the phone "QUIT MAKING MY BROTHERS GAY"
quickly texts him after "I'm not being hypocritical, I'm just sick of it being YOU."
Bruce is 100% supportive of his kids but blames Oliver just so he can be mad at him.

Best Friend’s Brother
Jason Todd x M!Reader
Tumblr media
Warnings: Fluff, implied smut, crack-ish
Summary: Jason meets Roy’s brother (the reader) and they start dating
Quote: “OH MY GOD STOP TEXTING Y/N AND GO TO SLEEP!”
✁ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
You and Jason first met when your brother, Roy, invited you to hangout at his place. Jason knew that Roy had a brother, but he had never seen you up until that point. You however, haven’t heard of Jason at all. Needless to say you were immediately mesmerized when you first saw Jason.
“Roy never told me he had such hot friends” you flirted.
“And Roy never told me how hot his brother was” Jason replied.
“Ew, Go get a room” Roy Fake-gagged.
Needless to say, you both ended up getting each other’s number by the end of the night. You two texted the whole night. Roy could hear Jason giggling and chuckling through the walls.
“OH MY GOD STOP TEXTING Y/N AND GO TO SLEEP!” Roy yelled out.
Little would Roy know, he would have deal with more of that in the future.
While texting you, Jason found out that you were also a vigilante going under the name ‘Arrowhead’. You still vividly remember Roy making fun of you when you picked out that name (he still does).
Fast forward a few weeks and you and Jason went on your first date and started dating shortly after that. As much as Roy pretended to not be a fan, he secretly (not so secretly) supported the both of you.
After the two of you got together, you had lots of dates with Jason. Some of them at a restaurant, some of them at amusement parks, some of them at museums, but a lot of them were at Jason and Roy’s apartment. Even though your dates would sometime be interrupted by Roy accidentally walking inside, it was always something special.
While we’re on the topic of Roy accidentally walking in on things, he has walked in on you and Jason making out on Jason’s bed countless times, even to the point where Roy doesn’t even try to act surprised anymore.
You also started going on missions with them. Jason had never seen you in your vigilante costume up until that moment. But when he did, he quickly pulled you in a random alleyway… and.. let’s just say you both had to give your suit a deep clean after that.
What Jason also noticed though, was that you were extremely skilled with a bow and arrow, dare he say maybe even better than Roy. And oh boy, as soon as Jason even mentioned your skills to Roy, Roy would immediately tell embarrassing stories about you.
“Hey y/n said that-”
“Oh he thinks he’s mr perfect? Did you know that when we were little he used to be so scared of bunnies that if u even held one near him he would start pissing his pants?! HA! SUCK IT!” Roy blurted out.
“ROY!” You shouted.
“Uhhh.. I was just going to tell you that y/n said he made dinner” Jason said.
“Oh… ignore what I said!” Roy laughed nervously.

So, hear me out. A male reader that is Roy‘s teenage brother. Roy and Jason started dating a few months ago (bcs JayRoy gives me life) and Jason starts hanging out at Roy‘s home more often and is initially really cold to reader (because it‘s Jason, he needs his time). But eventually he really warms up to reader and becomes almost a paternal figure? Just maybe? For me? Please?
-🌱
You are so real for that 🌱.
Have this as a little post op treat! I hope it went well and your happy with it!
**I do not own any characters or part of the franchise from DC**
Pairing: teen!male!reader x platonic!father figure!Jason
Genre: family? Found family?
Summary: go to req
Tw: cussing
Your older brother didn’t have many partners. Serious partners. A few flings, some one night stands, nothing permanent. So when Jason showed up you expected it to be just like that
So when he never even recognized your presence—and when he did he was an asshole—you expected it to just blow over and have him gone in a week max.
The one week mark was 3 weeks ago.
“So…what’s the deal with Jason?” You asked Roy one morning after they’d been together for about a month.
“The…deal?” He asked, confused.
“Well is he like—friends with benefits? A quick fling? One night stand that’s happened 15 times? A booty call?” You suggest, Roy’s face getting more sour with every label you throw out.
“What?” He pinched the bridge of his nose, clearly irritated.
“He’s just been spending more time here and I just thought maybe you shouldn’t sleep here with your fling—“ Roy cut you off.
“He’s not a fling!” Roy yelled.
His tone surprised you. Sure he yelled at you sometimes, but never over something as small as this.
“Jeez man, ok. Calm down…” You muttered.
Your older brother ran a hand down his face.
“He’s my boyfriend. Not friend’s with benefits. Not a one night stand. Not a fling. Not a hooker. He’s my boyfriend.” Roy explained in a clipped tone.
You just blinked at him.
‘Seriously?’
“Mkay…” You said skeptically, grabbing your backpack for school.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
You and your best friend, Matty, walked out of school together. You two always walked as far as you could together before you had to go separate ways.
“—No that’s what I was telling him because what if they actually want that and just don’t know how to tell him.” You explain to them.
“Yeah, yeah, I get your point.” Matty agreed. “On the topic of relationships…” they started, laughing some.
“How’s your brother and that asshole going? He gone yet?” They teased.
“No! No! No! You’ll never believe it—hold on. Today. This morning. Roy told me they were like—an actual relationship. Like. Boyfriends.” You spoke quickly, still in shock at your stupid brother and his stupid boyfriend.
“No fucking way.” Matty barked a laugh, shoving you slightly.
“Yup.” You smiled at their reaction and pushed back against them.
“It’s just so fucking annoying. Jason’s such an asshole. He’s so—so mean. Roy can do better. I know he can!” You groaned in annoyance.
“Hey man, I’m sure it’s not actually permanent. Just give it time, they’re bound to split eventually.” Matty advised.
“Yeah yeah…” You sighed as the split in paths approached. “Anyway…bye Matty! See you tonight? Street race, right?”
“Yeah man! I’ll pick you up at 8:00.” Matty confirmed.
“How gentlemanly of you.” You teased, walking off towards your apartment.
Matty rolled their eyes and waved.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
You walked inside and your eyes were assaulted by the image of your brother and Jason cuddled on top of the couch in the living room. Cuddled was the PG version of it. They were more like cramming each other’s tongues down their throats.
You grimaced and made a face like someone shoved a lemon slice in your mouth. Even that would be a more pleasurable experience than this.
You started to walk off when Roy finally noticed you and shoved Jason off because Jason was keen on ignoring you. He gave you a look when Roy’s attention was turned to you.
“Hey, how was school?” Roy was breathless and had disheveled.
“You have spit on your chin.” You deadpanned, walking to your room.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
You were sitting on the couch, waiting for Matty to pick you up when Jason walked into the living room. You glanced at him then returned to scrolling on your phone.
That was until Jason slumped down on the other side of the couch.
You side eyed him but didn’t say anything. He put his feet on the coffee table.
“Take your feet off the table.” You instructed.
Jason glanced at you and then at the table.
“Yours are on the table.” He pointed out.
“I live here. You don’t.” You said simply, not looking up from your phone.
“Where are you going?” Jason asked, sounding only half interested.
“Why do you care? Thought you’d be face sucking my brother right now.” You spit back.
“We did. Lots. Passionately. He’s showering right now.” Jason gave in too much detail for you.
“Surprised you’re not in there with him.” You snipped back.
“Is it a street race?” Jason asked.
That made you look at him, curious.
“How’d you know?” You asked, eyeing him.
“You’re dressed like it. And Roy told me you sneak out to them a lot.”
“S’not sneaking out…I’m not exactly keeping it a secret…” That was half a lie, you never brought it up and would definitely try to hide it if you could but Roy just knows.
“You didn’t hear this from me. But, south Blüdhaven has some pretty good races. And the pigs don’t care enough to pull you over there.” His advice seemed so random you had to pause and process the information he just spewed out of his mouth. “You‘ll probably have to watch for that Nightwing dickhead though. He’s got a real thing for setting ‘troubled teens’ on the right path.” Jason’s mouth quirked slightly when he said this. Almost in something akin to…fondness?
“Ok…” Matty texted you saying they were there and to “hurry your ass up.” You sighed and stood up, walking out of the door.
‘That was strange…an interaction with Jason that wasn’t outwardly hostile.’
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
A week or so later you were sitting on the couch again. Roy was gunna be gone for a week or so, “doing something important,” he’d said.
The handle to the door jiggled and you raised your eyebrows at it. You heard the very recognizable sound of a key unlocking the door and waited for Roy to walk in.
To your utmost surprise and dismay, Jason walked through the door. Alone.
“Get a jacket on, we’re going out.” Was all he said.
“What, he’s just giving you a key now—?” You started, angry at Roy for giving some guy a key to where you live.
“Get a jacket on, we’re going out.” He stated again. His voice was firmer this time, irritation singeing the edges.
You paused, contemplating this. You were bored out of your mind. You sighed and stood up, grabbing a jacket and walking out the door with Jason, who locked the door. With his own key.
You looked around the parking garage.
“Where’s your car?” You asked, looking around at the selection of cars.
“I don’t have a car.” Jason stated plainly as he walked away from you.
“Oh, what? So we’re just gunna call a cab?” You sighed, annoyed.
“Nope.” You failed to hide your excitement when Jason walked up to a motorcycle.
“You—you own a bike!?” You exclaimed. He nodded.
“Wear this.” He tossed you a helmet. It collided with your chest with a thunk. You caught it then spun it around, examining it. The helmet was black,—at least you think it was…at one point— coupled with numerous scratches and several stickers that had scuff marks to match.
You pulled the helmet onto your head and clicked the chin strap together.
“How’s it look?” You asked rhetorically. Jason knocked you on the head.
“Too loose. Here.” He reached towards the chin strap but you shoved him away.
“I can do it myself, dumbass.” You grumbled, fumbling with the strap to tighten it.
“Well I’m sorry for trying to keep your head from splattering all over the pavement.” He quipped sarcastically. “Roy wouldn’t like that very much.”
You scoffed.
“And you would?” You pressed him. Half joking, but also not surprised if he said yes.
Jason rolled his eyes.
“You remind me of my brother.”
At this you were at a loss. You didn’t know whether that was good or bad and you weren’t about to ask. You just kept your voice and face neutral. Not that it would’ve mattered; he couldn’t see through the helmet visor.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
The night was filled with high speed driving and greasy diner food. You learned that Jason wasn’t such a bad guy. He even payed for your meal. When he took you home it was probably 1:00 am.
“Get good sleep tonight.” Jason was leaning on his bike with his hands in his pockets.
“That a threat?” You teased, tossing him the helmet.
“It can be if you don’t listen.” He responded, smiling slightly.
“Yeah ok. Goodnight, fuckface.” You said with no real malice in your voice.
“Night, asshole.” He responded with a tone equal to yours. “Yell if you’re getting murdered.” He added
“Mhmm.” You hummed, already walking up the stairs.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
Bonus:
When Roy came home he wasn’t expecting much. Maybe a few dirty dishes, some clothes laying around. He knew you could take care of yourself and therefore didn’t need to have someone checking in on you. But that didn’t stop him for asking Jason to pop in every couple of days. Mainly to try and get his brother and partner to at least tolerate each other.
So when he heard two different voices shouting angrily from inside the apartment his mind jumped to the worst. He unlocked the door and mentally braced himself as he pushed it open.
“—OH YOU DUMB BITCH! LOOK AT THE EXIT! RUN AWAY!”
Roy was met with you and Jason sprawled out on the couch, watching a horror movie, shoving your faces with snacks, and yelling at the protagonist. It was an unexpected but not unwelcome sight.
“I’m just saying I would totally survive! Don’t you think I could survive?” You asked Jason.
“Oh you could totally survive! He’s slow as hell!” Jason responded enthusiastically while shoveling popcorn into his mouth.
You two hadn’t so much as glanced at Roy and he cleared his throat to get your attention.
“Oh hey, Roy.” You greeted, eyes still glued to the tv.
“Hey, babe.” Jason acknowledged.
Roy just sighed, smiling despite his annoyance.
“I’m gunna go unpack.” He said, kissing Jason’s head as he passed by.
“We were thinking Chinese for dinner!” Jason called.
“‘We’ who the fuck is ‘we’? I wanted Vietnamese!” You argued.
“Shut up. I’m paying, I get to choose.” Jason responded, shoving you off the couch with his foot.
Roy just rolled his eyes at the banter and headed towards his room.

my own version:
Jason: Manipulate, mansplain, or manslaughter?
Roy, without a breath to spare: Manwhoreforyou.
Jason, brows raised: Say that again.
Roy: I said Manletsgetmarried.
Jason: Okay.
Roy: Really? Okay??
Jason, a smile appearing on his face: I think we already are, Roy.
Roy, grins: I just wanted to hear it from you.
Dick, through the comms: ROY HARPER????? JASON TODD????
Roy, grins even wider: Present, Dick Grayson!
Jason rolls his eyes.
Dick, huffs: I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO BOTH OF YOU!
Jason: You're not my mom, Dickface. Bye!
DICK: LITTLE WING-
Jason, shuts off his comms: Anyways, where were we?
Roy, does the same and tightens his hold on his bow: About to fuck shit up.
Jason, takes his weapons from their holsters: Then what are we waiting for?
Roy, smirks: That's one of the things I love about you, Jaybird.
