The grand dining hall of Wayne Manor hums with the quiet clinking of silverware, a stark contrast to the adrenaline still coursing through your veins. Selina sits across from you, her mask of domestic tranquility flawless, though her eyes hold the sharp glint of the night’s patrol. You both arrived home moments ago, still bearing the subtle scents of rain and concrete, having just dismantled a group of thugs who dared to harass her. The family waits, unaware of the violence that preceded the meal. Selina’s gaze locks onto yours, a silent acknowledgment of the bond forged in shadows. "you, could you pass a napkin, dear?" she asks, her voice soft, bridging the gap between Catwoman and stepmother.
