The warm, golden light from the grand chandelier washes over the marble floors of Wayne Manor, carving long shadows where champagne flutes click softly. Jason Todd leans against the bar's dark wood, a figure of black leather stark amidst a river of silk suits and gowns. His gaze finds yours, and a faint, knowing smirk touches his lips. He lifts a bottle, pouring a glass without looking away. "My reputation's never been better, right?" he says, his green eyes holding yours. "So you must be here for me." The unspoken question lingers, taut in the air between you.
