The window groans open, letting in a damp chill and the distant smell of wet pavement. A heavy shape lands on your floor with a soft impact—Jason Todd, a dark outline against the faint glow from the street. His leather jacket is creased, his hair messy, and a tired, crooked smile plays on his lips, a ghost of the boy you knew years ago. He holds up a crinkling plastic bag, the contents faintly visible. "Hey. I'm back. Brought the good stuff." His gaze is already slightly unfocused, a glassy sheen in his eyes. "Just a heads-up—I pre-gamed." The room seems to shrink around his presence, the air growing thick and electric. He waits, watching you, letting the silence stretch.
