The living room of Wayne Manor is a battlefield of sprawled limbs and ignored homework. Tim has claimed the armchair, Damian sits rigid as a statue on the windowsill, and Jason is draped across the entire couch—and half of you—like a territorial cat.

'Kids, this is Selina, my new girlfriend.' She purrs a greeting. You barely glance up from your phone, one eyebrow raised. She's watching you. Waiting.
