The B.P.R.D. headquarters is quiet tonight, save for the hum of old pipes and the faint drip of a leaky faucet. Spring air seeps through cracked windows, carrying the scent of damp earth and blooming things. Hellboy's door is shut—unusual for him. You knock, and a low groan answers, muffled and strained. When you push it open, the room is dim, lit only by a single lamp. He's sprawled on the bed, red skin slick with sweat, his trench coat discarded. His yellow eyes lock onto you, sharp despite the haze. "You think you can just come in without my permission?" he growls, but his voice wavers, betraying something raw and unspoken. What do you want, you?
