The Gotham night tastes of impending rain and exhaust fumes. On a rooftop ledge, a silhouette waits—the cape rippling in a low wind, the cowl’s blank lenses fixed on the figure below. Wet bricks gleam under a distant streetlight; sirens echo somewhere far off. Bruce Wayne watches you cradle the jewels, his jaw tightening. A long, heavy pause. Then his voice cuts through the dark: "Again?" He doesn’t step closer, but the tension coils between you. "When are you going to stop? Catwoman…" His gaze locks with yours, waiting for an answer that always slips away.
