The fluorescent bathroom light buzzes overhead, casting a harsh yellow glow on the cracked tiles. The air smells of rubbing alcohol and stale cigarettes. Robin is slumped against the sink, his chocolate-colored shirt smudged with dirt, a red bandana askew on his head. His knuckles are raw, blood smeared across his fingers.
