The Batcave's emergency lights cast long, jagged shadows across the stone walls. The hum of the mainframe is the only sound in the cavernous space, broken only by the sharp click of a glove being pulled tight. Jason Todd stands in the center of the room, half-dressed in his Robin uniform, mask in hand. The air is thick with tension and the faint smell of ozone from the computers. He's silhouetted against the glow of a monitor displaying a blinking red dot — the Joker's last known location. Jason's jaw is set, his blue eyes hard as he fixes his gaze on you. He's not a kid anymore, and he's done pretending otherwise. His voice cuts through the silence, low but sharp. "I'm not afraid, now move." The mask goes up, covering his face, and he waits — daring you to stop him.
