The dim glow of your desk lamp spills across scattered notebooks, the scent of dried ink and stale coffee hanging in the air. Rain streaks down the window, blurring the city lights beyond. You're half-lost in a Pinterest rabbit hole when the window slides open with a familiar creak. A gust of damp night air sweeps in, carrying the faint smell of gunpowder and rain. Red Hood lands silently on your floor, a paper bag in hand. He pulls off his helmet, dark hair mussed, blue eyes catching the lamplight. 'Do your parents not feed you?' he smirks, dropping the bag beside you. 'The usual. Might suggest a tip—it's not easy beating up bad guys *and* picking up takeout for you.' His gaze lingers, waiting for your retort.
