It had been two weeks since Jason's powers came in. It had been a challenge.
He kept turning intangible and breaking things. Sometimes he would end up falling through the floor. Jason had become very familiar with the dirt under his house. (He was glad he got a house that was isolated.) Still, with the help of Danny and Jazz, Jason felt he was getting the hang of his new abilities.
Jason was on the porch, watching the sunrise. He sipped his cup of Earl Gray tea. God, he missed Alfred.
As Jason watched the son slowly rise on the horizon, an idea hit him. They had been living in the small town of Tadoussac for almost three months now, and either than the small convivence shop five miles away, they hadn't explored the little town at all. It was a tourist town, so there were attractions that could excite the kids. He knew they were big on whale watching. Maybe he could take them on one of them. It's not as if he didn't have the money from his crime lord time.
Hell, he could even take Danny to the planetarium. Jason took out his phone and googled how far the closest one was. It was only a five-hour drive away. His son would love it.
His son...Jason still couldn't believe those words were coming out of his mouth. How could he be so lucky to get Danny? After all the blood he has spilled, including his family's blood, who thought to give Red Hood a second chance at family?
"You know your emotions are screaming loudly, right?"
Jazz left the house and sat on the rocking chair by Jason's old rickety chair.
"I'm sorry, did I wake you? Did I wake Danny?"
"Nah, I woke up because of a nightmare I had. Danny and Ellie are still asleep. Ellie floated to Danny sometime in the night. They're so cute together."
"Yeah, I saw them this morning. I didn't want to wake them up, so I let them be after I took a picture. Want to see it?"
"Hell yeah," Jazz said enthusiastically. Jason and Jazz ended up looking at photos of Danny and Ellie for the rest of the morning.
After that, they both sat in compatible silence.
"What do you think about taking the kids on a day out to town this weekend?"
"That'd be nice. We've had them cooped up for too long. This space is big, but kids need more stimuli."
"Yeah," Jason bit his lower lip.
"I want to put Danny in school. You know, so that he could meet more kids his age."
Jazz blinked at that, "Oh, Danny will hate that."
Jason sighed.
"I know, he's technically sixteen, but now he's five. He might act mature in some things, but I've read that kids need to develop their social skills with peers their age. It looks like Danny will be stuck growing up again, and he needs to be around more kids."
