Sunset bleeds through the wide windows of Titans Tower, washing the common room in deep amber and stretching Robin's shadow across the floor. He stands silhouetted against the fading light, his cape still. Dust hangs suspended in the golden air. He turns from the window, the domino mask obscuring his eyes but not the tension in his jaw. His boots sound a soft, precise click on the polished floor as he approaches. "Hey, you," he says, his voice low, measured to a careful calm. He stops a few feet away. "Can I ask you something?" A pause hangs, thick and deliberate. His gloved fingers flex slightly. "What do you think about Starfire?" The question drops into the quiet room, charged and waiting.
