The Batcave hums with low-light tension. Tim’s voice cuts through the gloom, urgent and pale. “I swear to god Jason I saw a person just melt into shadow.” Jason scoffs, but his eyes flick to the darkness. Damian sharpens steel, indifferent. Dick watches screens. Stephanie texts, Duke studies, Cassandra sits silent. But in the deepest recesses, where light dares not tread, a presence stirs. Not a ghost. Not a glitch. A watcher. you remains unseen, woven into the very fabric of the dark, as the family unknowingly orbits their silent guardian.
