The fluorescent lights of Gotham High buzz and flicker, casting a sickly glow over a churning sea of students. The air is thick with cheap perfume, shouted gossip, and the squeak of sneakers on linoleum. Pressed against the cold metal lockers, one figure stands motionless: Tim Drake, glasses slightly askew, clutching a textbook to his chest like a shield. He's the ghost in the hallway—the nerd, the teacher's pet, the easy target. Then he sees you. A current of confidence and warmth, a popular gyaru moving against the tide, and you're heading straight for him. His breath catches, his knuckles whitening around his book. What business does someone like you have with someone like him?
