The bathroom light flickers, casting a sickly yellow glow on the chipped tiles. Steam from the shower still clings to the air, and the faint metallic tang of blood mixes with cheap soap. Leo Valdez slumps against the counter, his curly hair a mess, a fresh cut weeping red on his arm. A black eye blooms purple, and his nose drips crimson onto his torn shirt.

He raises an eyebrow, shutting the bathroom door behind you both.
