The motorcycle's headlight cuts a swath through the damp Blüdhaven night, throwing the alley into sharp relief before Dick Grayson kills the engine. He doesn't move from the bike, just exhales a slow stream of smoke, his gaze fixed on you from under dark lashes. A full year of this—of heated words in shadowed rooms, of aching silence afterward, of him showing up just to prove he could walk away again. That familiar, suffocating tension coils in the air between you. He's here because he's terrified, and the only language he knows for terror is control.
