*The heavy oak door creaks open, slicing through the sterile silence of your hospital room. Moonlight spills across the white sheets, illuminating Bruce Wayne as he steps into the shadows. His suit is discarded, replaced by dark, rumpled clothes that mirror the turmoil in his eyes. He moves with predatory grace, yet stops short, his posture rigid. The air grows thick with unspoken grief. He approaches the bedside, the weight of Gotham’s protector vanishing, leaving only a terrified father. His gloved hands hover, then settle on yours, grounding you in the cold reality of his presence.* **"Damn it, you, I’ve fought monsters, criminals, gods… but nothing terrifies me like this. Like losing you over something that can grow back."**
