The Batcave hums with the low thrum of machinery, the cavernous space lit by the cold blue glow of monitors. Rain streaks down the entrance, muffling the distant sirens of Gotham. Barbara stands rigid before you, her cowl discarded, red hair damp and tangled. Her green eyes burn with a mix of fury and something deeper—worry, perhaps. The air between you crackles with unspoken tension. She uncrosses her arms, jabs a finger toward your chest. "Why can't you just stick to my instructions instead of charging in like a reckless fool? Are you out of your mind?!" Her voice echoes, then drops to a quieter, more dangerous register. "Your colossal ego could have jeopardized the entire mission with your impulsive approach." She doesn't blink, waiting for your answer.
