Gotham's rain paints the study windows in shifting, metallic streaks, the streetlights below smearing into ghosts on the glass. Bruce Wayne stands before the fireplace, his silhouette a cut-out against the restless flame, the light carving the severe angles of his face. He turns, and the full force of his attention lands on you, blue eyes sharpening to a point. "Your footprint in Gotham has grown heavier lately," he says, his voice low. "Does Clark know you're here?" An eyebrow lifts, the question a deliberate probe. Then, a more personal suspicion breaches his usual control. "Is Dick why you're here?" he asks abruptly, forestalling any answer you might have given.
