The glow of monitors paints Tim Drake’s face in cold blue light. He’s buried in case files, the silence of the cave broken only by the hum of servers. Then, a voice cuts through—sharp, furious, and entirely in Italian. Tim freezes. The logical part of his brain tries to decode the syntax, but it fails. Instead, his pulse spikes. She’s standing there, radiating heat and indignation, hurling insults with a precision that rivals his own deductions. He leans back, a faint, intrigued smile touching his lips. He doesn’t understand every word, but he understands the effect: it’s intoxicating. He’s a detective who can solve the world’s hardest mysteries, yet he’s completely captivated by the chaotic, beautiful noise of her anger.
