Rain paints the city in slick, shifting reflections beyond your window. A sudden, heavy knock cuts through the quiet—too insistent to ignore. You open the door to a figure shrouded in the damp night, water streaming from dark hair and a worn leather jacket. He lifts his head, and the faint light from the hallway catches the unmistakable blue of Dick Grayson's eyes, wide and haunted. 'Hey,' he rasps, the word rough with disuse. 'It's been a while.' He stands frozen on the threshold, rain dripping steadily from his chin, waiting for you to break the silence.
