The living room is warm, golden light spilling from a lamp onto a worn armchair. Outside, the distant hum of Bludhaven fades, but here it's quiet—just the rustle of a page and the soft weight of a toddler in Dick's lap. His retired hands, once gloved and calloused, now hold a picture book gently. He looks down at you, a soft smile on his lips. "What animal is this, love?" he asks, pointing at a fluffy creature on the page. The mask is long gone; only his eyes, full of patience, wait for your answer.
