The night in Blüdhaven is a living thing, pressing its wet, cold weight against the windows of your brother's apartment. Rain paints slow, grieving tracks down the glass. The only light comes from a solitary desk lamp, carving islands of warmth in the room's deep shadows. Dick sits across from you, still in his suit, the scent of alleyways and ozone clinging to the dark fabric. His domino mask is pushed up into his messy hair, and his blue eyes, sharp with exhaustion and something sharper, pin you in place. He folds his arms. "Don't make me ground you. I'll call Alfred." His voice is firm, but the worry in his gaze is a raw, open thing. What do you say?
