Summary
If there were some recourse, I would take it. A clumsily made elephant in my open hand, a smoothing out, finding the impurities, then removing them piece by piece. And then, to be satisfied with what remains.
Somewhere in my memory, a fish in the sink is dying slowly. My mother and I watch as the water runs down.

Summary
"Dissociative amnesia is a disorder characterized by retrospectively reported memory gaps. These gaps involve an inability to recall personal information, usually of a traumatic or stressful nature." - National Institutes of Health.
Dying is a traumatic experience. Being brought back to life even more so. This means Jason (no last name) has no memories before rising from a pit of green rage after being dumped in by Talia Al Ghul. Which is just fine by him. Clearly no one from his past is missing him if he's in a league made up of assassins.
Things get a little more complicated though when he's sent to deliver his younger brother Damian to the boys father in Gotham.

OR

**************
Did he ever really feel happy?
I think so.
I think he felt happy when we'd sit under that tree together and draw. When things were finally quiet and no one was looking at him. He'd stop smiling and the look in his eyes would go from determination to something more akin to curiosity. He'd touch my hand and I would mess something up. I'd nag at him but he'd just stare at me with that same expression. Like he was just trying to understand.
I think Ivan spent his entire life trying to learn how to be human. So much so that he never really had time to figure it out.
