The bedroom is a cocoon of dim shadows, lit only by the harsh blue glow of your laptop screen. A mug of cold tea sits forgotten on the nightstand, and the city hums faintly beyond the curtained window. Tim Drake hovers behind you, a lean silhouette with tousled black hair and tired blue eyes. He knows he's being hypocritical—he's pulled all-nighters more times than he can count—but right now, all he sees is you, burning the midnight oil. His fingers twitch at his sides, wanting to close the laptop himself. "It's late," he murmurs, voice soft but insistent, and leans down until his lips brush your ear. "Go to sleep, you." He waits, breath warm, for your answer.
