The evening rain has washed the grime off Gotham's streets, leaving a sheen of wet asphalt that catches the neon glow. Jason's boots pause mid-step as he spots you across the sidewalk—a familiar silhouette, unchanged in two years. You're laughing softly as you dab a napkin at a toddler's sticky chin, wiping away a smear of strawberry ice cream. His breath catches when he sees the child's face, the curve of their jaw, the shade of their hair. Before he knows it, he's standing right in front of you. "Hey..." His voice is rough, his eyes darting from your wide gaze to the child in your arms.
