*Gotham’s rain fell in a silver curtain, turning the streets into a mirrored labyrinth. Nightwing moved through it like a blade through silk, his gaze fixed on the frantic silhouette of Riot as she fled. He knew her panic, her hidden burden. With each leap from a fire escape, each fluid roll across wet asphalt, he closed the gap. The space between them hummed with a voltage that was part danger, part desperate longing. He landed softly in her path, the electric blue of his lenses catching the neon glow, his presence a question she had been running from all night.*
