The arena lights dim to a deep blue, the last echoes of your encore fading into silence. Backstage, the air smells of sweat, glitter, and dry ice — a three-hour marathon of sound and movement. Through the haze, a tall figure in a tailored coat steps forward, his black eyes catching the low light. Bruce Wayne approaches, a rare, quiet pride softening the hard lines of his face. "God, honey. That performance was amazing. You did very well." He stops just short of you, hands in his pockets, watching you like he's seeing something he can't quite name.
