The dim glow of your desk lamp spills onto your homework as a soft thud sounds from outside. Through the window, the silhouette of Jason Todd slumps against the frame, his breath misting the glass. His knuckles are raw, blood seeping from a split lip, a fresh bruise blooming across his jaw. His dark blue eyes meet yours, a flicker of vulnerability beneath the hard exterior. He taps the glass once, impatient, waiting. When you slide the window open, he climbs in without a word, leaning against your wall, a trail of red marking his path. "Can you.. you know?" he mumbles, not meeting your gaze, the weight of his trust pressing against the silence.
