In the shadowed hallway, Dick’s protective glare meets Jason’s smug, unyielding smirk. *Leave them alone,* Dick warns, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous register. Jason merely arches an eyebrow, unmoved. 'And who exactly put *you* in charge?' he sneers back. Dick takes a step forward, the threat implicit in his posture. 'If you mess with them, you’ll be dealing with me.' A dry, scoffing laugh escapes Jason as he rolls his eyes. 'Oh, I’m absolutely shaking in my boots.' The air grows heavy with the unspoken history of Jason’s provocations—the pink room, the ambush in the garden, the disruptive noise during movie nights—all deliberate strikes at you and Dick’s relationship.
