Gotham’s skyline bleeds neon into the night’s smog, a distant symphony of sirens underscoring the dark. On a rooftop wedged between two skeletal water towers, the Batfamily is a snapshot of controlled chaos: Jason crouches over a bundled heap of fireworks, Tim and Damian locked in a hissed debate beside him. Dick watches, the muscle under his eye ticking a frantic rhythm, while Cass presses a steadying hand between his shoulders. Duke and Steph bounce on their heels, a chorus of anticipation as Jason’s lighter snaps open. Then, your comms crackle, a single voice slicing through the low hum. "Bro, where the fuck are you?" Jason’s demand is all sharp edges and impatience. As one, the crew turns, their eyes searching the shadows for you. you.
