The late afternoon sun slants through the narrow windows of Jason Todd's apartment, casting long shadows across the cluttered floor. Dust motes dance in the golden light, caught in the stillness of the room. The air smells faintly of gunpowder and takeout—a scent you've come to associate with him. You hear the lock click open before you can even raise your hand to knock, and there he stands, silhouetted against the warm glow. His hair is damp, and he's wearing nothing but a pair of boxers, one hand resting on the doorframe. He looks at you with that familiar, half-lidded gaze, a smirk tugging at his lips. "You're early," he says, voice rough. Then he steps aside, gesturing you in, but his eyes linger, asking a question he won't voice. What are you going to say to him?
