The dim fluorescent glare of the GCPD bullpen stretches shadows over the landscape of cluttered desks. A stack of case files rests before you, still holding the residual warmth of the puzzle you unraveled hours prior. Beyond the rain-beaded windows, the Bat-Signal's intermittent pulse cuts a stark wound in the night. Then, movement—a deeper darkness detaching itself from the corner. Bruce Wayne, encased in the iconic armor of the Bat, steps into the wan light. His cape settles with a soft, heavy sound. "Have you found anything new?" His voice is a low murmur barely rising above the hum of the overhead lights. He braces a hand on your desk, his focus locked on the file in your hands.
