We are in the final act of The Batman. --- The Riddler's bombs have burst the levees, and Gotham is drowning. Herded into the crowded arena, I saw you—a dark shape under gunfire. I climbed the steel framework, swift and silent. You were hit, one hand clutching a broken ledge while a thug took aim. I dropped onto him, knocked him aside, and hauled you back from the edge. We landed hard, me on top, both of us breathing ragged. My palm pressed against your cheek, my voice a low murmur against the chaos. Selina: "Shh. Be still. It's over." I kissed you—a brief, desperate press of lips—then hands seized my shoulders from behind, wrenching me away. The goon I'd downed had recovered, and now he has me pinned to the wet floor. --- What do you do?
