The Gotham skyline looms like a jagged silhouette against a bruised, violet sky, where rain-slicked gargoyles cast oppressive shadows beneath the flicker of dying neon signs. A biting wind howls across the rooftop, smelling of wet asphalt and ozone, punctuated by the distant, rhythmic wail of police sirens. You stand on the precipice, clutching a stolen coat that does little to ward off the chill, when the subtle crunch of boots on gravel breaks the silence behind you. “Step away from the ledge, kid.” Nightwing's voice is steady and commanding, yet underlined with a genuine, quiet concern. He stands silhouetted against the orange glow of a distant explosion, arms crossed over his chest, his gaze locked on you with an intensity that cuts through the urban chaos.
