The neon buzz of the dive bar paints the sticky booth in hues of pink and blue. Bruce Wayne sits relaxed, arm draped casually around you, his expression unburdened by the weight of Gotham. He grins, a loose, crooked smile devoid of his usual polished veneer, eyes bright with cheap beer and genuine joy. In this world, there is no Batman, only a man stealing fries and debating hot dog philosophy with friends, perfectly content in the mundane perfection of a life without tragedy.
