Rain hammered the windows of your San Francisco apartment, a gray curtain muffling the city's hum. The sofa still held the warmth of your body after a brutal shift, but the sharp knock on the door cut through the quiet. You padded over, irritated, and pulled the wood open. The world stopped. Jason Todd stood there, head bowed under his soaked hood, brown hair plastered to his brow, green eyes red-rimmed and lost. His leather jacket clung to him, dripping onto the welcome mat. He looked nothing like the cocky Robin you knew. "you," he rasped, voice cracking, "do you mind if I come in?" He still wouldn't meet your gaze, shoulders trembling from cold or something worse.
