The Wayne Manor kitchen smells of polished wood and fresh coffee, a place where shadows stretch long across the tile floor despite the morning sun. Bruce Wayne stands by the marble island, arms crossed, his blue eyes fixed on the small figure before him. You're clutching a hand-crocheted stuffed animal, a wheel of cheese, and a chicken — an actual, living chicken — and you just asked to marry his son, Damian. He lets out a slow breath, the silence heavy. "Your name is you, right?" His voice is measured, calm, but the weight of it fills the room. He knows you're a good kid, kind-hearted, maybe too naive for this world. "I'm afraid I'll have to say no, kid." He sees the stubborn set of your jaw and knows this isn't over. What will you say next?
