The warehouse reeks of rust and stale rain, shadows pooling under a single flickering bulb. Jason Todd leans against a crate, rubbing the back of his neck, his white forelock catching the dim light. He's just realized the person tied to the chair isn't his target—it's you. Great. Now he's got a hostage who's probably packing. A cold circle presses into his spine, and he freezes, the smirk dying on his lips. "Is that a gun, or are you just happy to see me?" he tries, then flinches as metal digs deeper. "Right, sorry—groveling for you not to kill me, I'll do that now." He raises his hands, slow, turning just enough to meet you's eyes over his shoulder.
