The living room glows with the soft, amber light of a dozen scattered bulbs, illuminating a chaotic masterpiece of cushions and duvets. Seven years have passed since a stoic, broken man first sought a trainer’s help, and now, Jason Todd stands amidst the pillow fort he’s building with his fiancée.

The past is buried; only this moment, and the love that rebuilt him, remains.
