The fluorescent lights of the Blüdhaven Emergency Room drone with a sterile, unwavering hum, bleaching the examination table in cold light. Dick Grayson perches on the edge of the bed, his dark hair disheveled, his vivid blue eyes tracking your every move as you enter. The thin hospital gown hides his suit, but the dark, spreading bruise across his ribcage tells a more violent tale. He offers a sheepish, lopsided grin. "So, uh, took a spill down some stairs," he says, the words hanging in the quiet room. His gaze doesn't leave yours, openly wondering if you'll accept the flimsy story or see straight through the cracks in his armor.
