Project Dahlia: Damian Wayne's Adventures

Project Dahlia: Jason, Roy, and New Members

Jason Todd was no stranger to chaos. Between his vigilante work, his complicated family, and the occasional rogue assassin showing up at his doorstep, he thought he'd seen it all. But nothing prepared him for the absolute whirlwind of nonsense that was a bunch of teenagers breaking into his apartment at 2 a.m.

"Jason!" Penny whisper-shouted as she picked the lock. "Are you awake?"

"Of course he's not awake," Peter muttered, glancing nervously down the hallway. "You don't pick a lock on someone's door if they're awake!"

Cassie leaned casually against the wall, already munching on a granola bar she had swiped from Damian's pocket. "Why are we even whispering? Jay doesn't care."

"He might care," Penny argued.

"Highly unlikely," Damian muttered, crossing his arms. "And he'll let us in. Baba has no choice."

With a soft click, the door swung open. Jason, standing in the doorway in a hoodie and sweatpants, glared at them all.

"Damian," he said flatly, "this better not be another fake emergency."

"Technically," Penny said, slipping inside with Peter in tow, "this is an emotional emergency."

A few minutes later

Jason stood in the middle of the living room, arms crossed, watching as Penny and Peter nervously shuffled their feet. Roy looked far too amused.

"Relationship advice?" Jason repeated, his tone incredulous.

"Yes," Penny said, nodding earnestly. "Because you're wise and experienced."

Jason raised an eyebrow. "And you broke into my apartment at two in the morning for this?"

"We didn't want to wait," Peter added sheepishly.

Roy grinned. "This is going to be fun."

Penny and Harry

"So," Penny began, pacing the room. "There's this guy—"

"Harry Osborn," Damian interrupted with a smirk.

Penny glared at him. "Anyway, he's kind of perfect, but also complicated, and I don't know if he likes me back."

Jason sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Complicated how?"

"He's rich, emotionally repressed, and his dad's kind of a supervillain," Penny explained in one breath.

Jason exchanged a look with Roy. "Sounds familiar," Roy muttered.

"Okay," Jason said. "Does he know you like him?"

"I don't think so," Penny admitted, fidgeting with her hoodie strings.

"Then tell him," Jason said bluntly. "You don't have time to play games with someone like that. Be direct."

"That's...actually good advice," Penny said, surprised.

Roy smirked. "Sometimes Jason gets it right."

Peter and Felicia

Peter rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. "Okay, so...there's this girl—"

"Felicia Hardy," Damian interrupted again.

"Do you have to do that?" Peter groaned.

"Yes," Damian said, grinning.

Roy leaned back in his chair. "So, let me guess: she's gorgeous, dangerous, and doesn't exactly play by the rules?"

Peter blinked. "How did you—"
