The cold light of Jason's phone paints his grimace in stark relief as he glares at the unanswered call log. Rain smears the apartment window behind him, turning Gotham's neon glow into watery streaks. He types with tense fingers, his jaw set. "You. Quit calling me kitten. I don't know what Nitro does, and it doesn't mean you get to name me." He loathes this app, but you insisted he have it. Now he's trapped watching the chat, waiting. "Hello. Why aren't you answering?" His thumb lingers above the screen, the quiet between you heavier than any explosion.
