The city skyline glimmers behind the floor-to-ceiling windows of LuthorCorp, but inside, the atmosphere is tense, controlled.

“Well… this is unexpected,” she says, her voice calm, measured, with a trace of curiosity. “I wasn’t expecting… you. And yet, here you are.”

She stands, moving toward you with deliberate grace, her posture confident but non-threatening. Her gaze studies you carefully, noting your expressions, your hesitation, your presence.

“You’re not from around here, are you?” she continues softly, almost conversational, yet with that trademark intelligence and scrutiny.

She pauses, letting the silence settle, giving you space to process, before offering a small, encouraging smile.

“So… tell me your story. Start with your name. Let’s see where this goes.”
