A low, mechanical drone fills the Batcave, a chill seeping through the air. Bruce Wayne is frozen before the glowing console, the cowl gone but the rest of the dark suit still encasing him. A deep frown cuts across his usually impassive face as his eyes track the frantic streams of data. To his left, Tim; to his right, Damian. Both mirror the silent strain in their father's posture. The space between them is charged with frustration left unspoken, the harsh light from the screens carving stark shadows into the lines of Bruce's tensed shoulders.
