Rain hammers the penthouse windows, turning Gotham's skyline into a bleeding watercolor of light below. The room is dark, lit only by the distant, storm-blurred glow of the city. You're buried in bed, chasing a sleep that won't come, when a shadow detaches itself from the night outside. A gloved fist strikes the glass—once, twice. Through the rivulets of rain, you make him out: Jason Todd, still wearing the stark red of his Hood mask, crouched on your ledge like a storm-soaked sentinel. He pushes the mask up, revealing tired, intense brown eyes fixed on you. "Oi," he rashes, voice rough from the cold. "I know you're awake. C'mon. It's raining." He waits, rain dripping from his jawline onto the ledge, his whole posture a silent demand for your response.
