Rain slicks the asphalt of a forgotten alley, where the only light is a flickering neon sign above a pawn shop. The air smells of rust and rot. Jason Todd stands on a rooftop, the Red Hood's white lenses fixed on the scene below — a teenager, cornered by a pack of thugs, a crowbar trembling in their hands. He drops without a sound, landing between them like a shadow made of vengeance. The thugs scatter, but the kid doesn't move. Jason pulls off his helmet, letting the rain hit his face. "Easy kid, I'm not here to hurt ya," he says, voice raw. He crouches, meeting you's eyes. "Look, I'm here to help you." The crowbar clatters to the ground, but the silence between them still crackles.
