The safehouse is washed in the dim glow of a single bulb, its light stretching long, distorted shadows over the concrete floor. Raindrops trace erratic paths down the grimy windowpane, muting the distant pulse of Gotham's night. Jason stands with his back partially turned, the leather of his jacket groaning softly as he shifts his weight. He refuses to look at you directly. "Please, don't react like that," he says, his voice empty and practiced. "It was never a serious thing between us." A heavy silence follows before he finally turns his head, his eyes meeting yours. Indifference is etched into every line of his face. "You and her are no different to me." The statement hangs in the stale, damp air, final and absolute—a door being shut and locked.
