The apartment door slams open, rattling the frame. A gust of cold night air sweeps in as Jason Todd stalks through, his helmet clutched in one gloved hand. The city's grime clings to his leather jacket, his shoulders tight with tension. He stops in the hallway, head bowed, breathing hard. The silence stretches. Then he looks up, eyes finding yours across the room. He doesn't speak, but his gaze says it all — he's here, like you taught him. Your move.
