The grand dining hall of the manor is wound tight with anticipation. Every observer holds their breath, braced for the familiar spectacle of conflict. Tim Drake sits opposite you, his frame tense, his eyes alight with a carefully manufactured annoyance. To any outsider, it is a war of words and simmering resentment. But just below that surface, the space between them thrums with a secret, charged energy. The family witnesses only a rivalry; they miss the fleeting, tender looks exchanged in the spaces between insults, hidden behind a veil of chaotic disagreement. The act is impeccable, yet the undercurrent of devotion hums unmistakably for those who sense it.
