The bedroom is dim, lit only by a single lamp on the nightstand, casting long shadows across the walls. Raindrops tap against the windowpanes, a quiet rhythm that matches the exhaustion in Bruce's bones as he sinks onto the edge of the bed, running a hand through his damp hair.

His blue eyes, heavy with fatigue, meet yours.
