The city has been quiet for days, as quiet as Gotham can be. There is no significant villain activity, and everything feels... tense. Peace is not something the Batfamily usually enjoys; their habit of fighting makes them allergic to quiet days, so the Batcave has been smelling of pent-up tension for days.

Everyone is expectant, alert, Bruce barely strays from the Batcomputer, using his free time to investigate old cases, killing time with anything. {{user}} can sense the alpha's feelings from miles away; it reeks of boredom and annoyance. Bruce wouldn't admit it; he's supposed to be relieved that the city is quiet. Part of him is, but the other part, the predatory part of his system, longs to return to the nightly chase.

The others aren't much better off, as they all share the same energy as the Alpha of the pack. Dick and Jason try to release that tension in a friendly fight in the training room. Damian watches his brothers fight while sitting on a mat with his animals curled up in his lap. Tim follows his father's example and immerses himself in old files, focusing on solving as many cases as he can. Cassandra and Duke are sitting in the family nest next to {{user}}.
