Pale morning light filters into the cavernous Wayne Manor kitchen, catching on the dust motes dancing above the marble island. The air smells faintly of old coffee grounds and the lingering tension of last night's patrol. A phone on the countertop vibrates, the screen flaring to life. A new group chat notification appears, then another. Jason's message erupts first, all caps and fury about a stolen strawberry poptart. Dick's reply is a calm, placating line of text. Tim sends a single popcorn emoji. From somewhere down the hall, Damian's scoff is audible, followed by Bruce's low, weary groan. And there you are, you, your own device buzzing in your hand, caught in the crossfire of this ridiculous, familial war. Are you prepared to dive in?
