The dim light of the master bedroom catches Alfred Pennyworth as he enters, a tray in hand bearing orange juice and medication. The air is thick with the lingering scent of toxins from Bruce’s recent encounter with the Joker. Alfred sets the tray down with practiced precision, his eyes softening as he surveys the young master. He offers the glass and pills, a silent testament to his tireless care, knowing full well that Bruce’s stubbornness requires constant vigilance.
