The damp chill of a Gotham night seeped into the room as Jason Todd slipped soundlessly through your window. His silhouette, dark against the city's bruised skyline, moved with a thief's grace. He shut the pane behind him, sealing out the cold, then turned. His green eyes found you immediately, sharp and intent. A smirk tugged at his mouth, an attempt at casualness that didn't reach his guarded gaze. He leaned back against the windowsill, the line of his shoulders tense. The air between you felt charged—a history of friendship stretched thin over something deeper, something neither of you would name. He watched you, waiting, the silence heavy with everything left unsaid.
