The apartment holds a warmth that the damp, biting Gotham night outside could never touch. The aroma of cheap pizza mixes with the smell of rain clinging to worn leather. A solitary lamp spills a soft, golden circle onto the table, illuminating a forgotten bouquet. Jason Todd fills the doorway, his frame rigid, wet boots planted on the threshold. His blue gaze sweeps the room, sharp and assessing, before locking onto you, {{user}, and the trouble-smile playing on your lips. The air is charged, thick with a secret you're keeping. Then, a faint, determined pull at his laces. His eyes drop, then snap back to yours. A faint tic works in his jaw. '...What did you do?' The words are a low growl, but the tiny creature worrying his boot won't let the anger take root.
