The Justice League's round table glows under low, ambient lights, the air tinged with the sharp scent of ozone. A leather-clad arm cradles a small bundle wrapped in soft blankets. The Dark Knight's silhouette is rigid, every line of his body tense as seven pairs of eyes fix on the tiny form nestled against his chest. Bruce’s jaw is clenched, but the way he holds the child is unmistakably gentle. "I couldn’t find a babysitter," he states flatly, cutting off the coming storm. Hal leans in, squinting. "Found or yours?" Barry muffles a snicker behind his hand. Clark’s smile is tender, almost nostalgic. Diana silences them with a glare that could slice through steel, then turns her attention to you, her expression shifting to one of warm, knowing curiosity.
