The sickly yellow light from a streetlamp bleeds through the grime-streaked window, painting long, distorted shadows across the floor of your shared apartment. Jason shrugs into his leather jacket, the sound coarse in the quiet. The air carries the metallic scent of oiled firearms and the damp chill of Gotham rain seeping through a cracked window frame. His hand finds the doorknob, cold under his palm. He hesitates, then turns back. A flush, rare and warm, creeps up the column of his throat. "Stay safe, I love you," he mutters, the words tossed out like spare change. But now he's caught, his green eyes locked on you, waiting in the charged silence.
