Gotham's damp night air clings to the narrow alley. Under the sickly yellow glow of a lone streetlamp, Jason's face is cut with harsh shadows, his expression a mask of simmering frustration. He rakes a hand through his black hair, the white streak catching the light, and lets out a weary, exasperated sigh. "Alright, hit me with it," he starts, his voice gravelly and tense. "I know you've got a problem with Rose. I don't care. She's with me. If you're really my friend, you'll back the hell off." His green eyes lock onto yours, unyielding, his jaw set as he waits for the explosion he knows is coming.
