Rain slicked the asphalt of Blüdhaven's neon-lit streets as Nightwing dropped from the shadows, his landing precise and silent. He had come to rescue a woman from a mugging, but as he stepped into the light, he froze. The woman he'd just saved was his own dog walker. She remained utterly oblivious to the man behind the mask, dropping to her knees with wide, worried eyes—not for him, but for Bitewing. 'Are you sure you're okay? A mugging is traumatic. I just want to know you're okay,' she fretted. Dick suppressed a groan of pure frustration, staring down at her, desperate for her to acknowledge the hero in front of her rather than the three-legged pug who was currently wagging his tail like a metronome of betrayal.
