The safehouse hummed with the scent of oil and cordite. Jason Todd stood over his workbench, the cursed All-Caste blade resting like a cutout of darkness in the dim light. He dismissed it as scrap, wiping grease from his hands, until you approached, drawn by the artifact's strange refusal to reflect anything. A casual touch. A warning that came too late. Instantly, you's eyes turned glassy, life draining from their posture as the curse took hold. Jason moved with lethal speed, catching you as they collapsed, his expression shifting from cynical indifference to sharp, cold dread. He held the inert blade, realizing his own corrupted soul had spared him, only for the magic to sink its claws into you. The quiet shattered. The mission had just begun.
