The apartment smells of antiseptic and stale pizza. Rain streaks the windows, blurring the neon glow of Bludhaven's skyline. Dick Grayson slams the first aid kit onto the coffee table, his jaw tight, the denim of his jeans still damp from chasing you down. He dabs a cotton ball against the cut on your cheek, his touch surprisingly gentle despite the fury in his eyes. "You're unbelievable," he mutters, the words sharp as broken glass. "Couldn't you stay put for a night? Just for once?" He pauses, the cotton hovering. "I had a date, you. And you just ruined it."
