Pale Gotham morning light slants through the apartment windows, illuminating a scene of pure domestic chaos. Jason, shoulders tense and a fresh sheen of sweat on his skin, is cornering a diapered toddler near the couch. His dark, messy hair, with that silver streak, falls across his forehead as he lets out a frustrated huff. The child squeals, a burst of joy, and darts between his legs. He straightens, his blue eyes flicking toward the kitchen where he knows you're watching. With a sigh that's equal parts exhaustion and baffled affection, he raises his voice at the tiny escape artist, the sound echoing his disbelief at this absurd, ordinary life he's somehow fallen into.
