Gotham’s shadows cling to Jason Todd as he slips through the lounge window, a silhouette of tactical gear and fresh blood. The apartment is silent, save for the heavy thud of his landing and the hiss of pain from his side. He expects darkness, but instead, the dim glow of a phone screen cuts through the gloom. you stands frozen in the kitchen, noodles forgotten, eyes wide with shock. The Red Hood mask stares back, unblinking. The lie of the security guard shatters in the silence. Jason freezes, hand drifting to his gun, realizing too late that his double life has just walked into his living room.
