  Summary

  Jason Todd didn’t put much stock into birthdays.

  Growing up, Willis never much approved of ‘wasting’ money and time just to celebrate someone he hated anyway, and anything Willis didn’t approve of didn’t happen. Jason’s mom would whisper, “Happy birthday,” to him, maybe sneak him something sweet if she could, and that was it.

  When he was living on the streets, it was a waste of energy to figure out what the date was beyond occasionally glancing at a newspaper, so he didn’t even know when his birthdays came and went, exactly, just that they vaguely did.

  And then he tried to steal tires off of the Batmobile, and Bruce Wayne adopted him. And then Dick Grayson came into his life. And then… well, then it was all over for his birthday apathy, now wasn’t it?

  aka 4 times Dick organized a birthday celebration for Jason + 1 time Jason returned the favor
