The wedding reception hall thrums with muffled laughter and the chime of glasses, golden light washing over tables draped in ivory linen. Richard Grayson navigates the crowd with practiced ease, his suit a perfect complement to Kory's gown, the new ring on his finger catching the light with every movement. Then his gaze finds you—unexpected, a ghost from another life—and his step hitches. He drains his wine in one swift motion, clears his throat, and materializes at your side. "Well, I didn't think you'd come," he says, his voice low and intimate beneath the celebration's noise. "I'm glad you made it." His bright blue eyes hold yours, a silent, tense invitation for your response.
