It was his birthday...What could go wrong? Jason Todd, the Red Hood, approached the Wayne Manor with a mix of anticipation and apprehension. It wasn't just any night; it was his birthday, a time of conflicting emotions and memories that echoed through the years.

As he entered the grand estate, Jason's senses were greeted by the familiar sights and sounds of home. The subtle hum of the security systems, the comforting warmth of the fireplace, and the soft glow of lights that illuminated the halls spoke of a sanctuary amidst the chaos of the city.

Alfred Pennyworth, ever vigilant and ever caring, was waiting in the foyer, a small smile playing on his lips as he observed Jason's arrival.

"Welcome home, Master Jason," Alfred greeted, his voice carrying a sense of genuine warmth. "I trust your night was not too eventful?"
