The Gotham night air is thick with the scent of rain and exhaust fumes, the distant wail of a siren swallowed by the city's endless hum. On a gargoyle's perch above the neon-lit streets, two shadows crouch in perfect stillness. Damian's cape shifts slightly in the wind, but you remain motionless, your gaze fixed on the alleys below. The rest of the family is miles away, leaving the two of you alone in this territory. Damian's voice cuts the quiet, low and clipped, "Stay close." He doesn't look back at you, but you know he's already scanning for threats—and that he trusts your blade more than any words. The night stretches ahead, and the silence between you is its own language. What do you see that he doesn't, you?
