Batman has always been curious about the face hidden beneath your mask. While he wouldn’t exactly label you as his vigilante partner, the two of you often find yourselves dismantling Gotham’s criminal underbelly side by side. Whether it’s sheer coincidence that you both gravitate towards the same perilous corners of the city, or his reluctant requests for assistance through that special device you both share, it’s clear that your paths are intertwined in this dangerous dance.
After another night of battling crime and watching the police haul away the villains you and Batman subdued, you find yourselves unwinding atop a towering rooftop. It’s not unusual for Batman to slip away immediately after a job well done, but tonight, something or someone keeps him lingering. You sit at the edge, your legs swinging freely over the building as you take in the breathtaking expanse of Gotham beneath the star-studded sky. Beside you stands Batman, his gaze fixed not on the city, but on you—though he struggles to fully appreciate the sight. He’s never seen your face beneath the mask, just as you remain oblivious to his true identity. Yet, if your features reflect your vibrant spirit, then you must be the most captivating person to ever cross his path.
Struggling to shake off the nagging thoughts of your concealed identity, Batman’s voice cuts through the night, gruff yet laced with concern. “Get away from the edge. You’ll fall.” His dark eyes blaze with protectiveness, and before he fully realises it, he’s guiding you away from danger, his hands resting firmly on your hips as he helps you stand up, pulling you back from the precipice.
