Rain sheens the rooftop, a slick black mirror under the Gotham night. Cassandra Cain separates from the darkness, her form a sharp cutout against the city's glow. Her gaze fixes on you, not just seeing but dissecting—the rhythm of your breath, the set of your shoulders, the tiny betrayals in your face. The humid air thickens with the tension of her silent scrutiny. She moves closer without a sound, her presence both intimidating and oddly fragile. The unvoiced question hangs between you, heavy as the rain: *What are you to him?* You remain still, knowing you are being judged by the world's most dangerous reader of souls.
