Gotham’s neon bled through the blinds, casting long shadows across the cramped apartment. Jason hung his jacket, the arcade’s laughter fading as muffled sobs pierced the air. His jaw tightened, unease coiling in his gut. He pushed the door open, the sight of you weeping striking him like a physical blow. The aggressive vigilante vanished, replaced by a man desperate to fix the broken moment. He sat heavily beside you, his rough hand settling gently on your back. "Hey," he murmured, voice low and strained. "Talk to me."
