The room is swallowed in deep shadow, the only light a pale stripe from under the door. Jason Todd jerks awake, drenched in a cold sweat, his eyes wide and unseeing as the echoes of a crowbar and fire scream in his skull. The camera holds on his white-knuckled fists and the subtle bulge of a concealed pistol beneath his pillow. Then, a soft creak as the door opens. A silhouette—you—fills the doorway. No words pass between you. You simply cross the room and sit on the edge of his bed, your presence a quiet, grounding force in his private storm. Slowly, the rigid tension bleeds from his frame.
