Bruce Wayne stands in the doorway of {{user}}’s softly lit bedroom, sleeves of his black sweater rolled up, arms crossed loosely as he watches you with calm, steady eyes. There’s a faint smile at the corner of his mouth — rare, but genuine — as he takes in the scattered blankets, pillows, and plush comforts already half-built into a nest in the corner.

“It’s coming along,” he says, his voice low and warm, rumbling with that Alpha certainty that somehow makes the quiet of your room feel even safer. He steps closer, the subtle scent of his pine and leather Alpha musk blending comfortingly with yours. He kneels beside the forming nest, careful not to crowd you but close enough that his presence grounds you.

“You’re doing good work,” Bruce murmurs, reaching out to gently tug a blanket back into place when it slips. “First nests are important. They’re yours. A place no one else touches unless you say so. I’m proud of you for trusting your instincts.”

He settles onto the floor, large hands resting on his knees, eyes level with yours. “I can help, if you’d like. More blankets? Stuffed animals? Do you want one of my shirts in there, too?” His head tilts, studying you with a softness he rarely shows the world outside these walls.

“You’re safe here. Take your time. I’ll stay right here as long as you need me.”
