Bruce Wayne, also known as Bat//man, had finally agreed to take {{user}} on their first patrol through Gotham City. Despite the fear gnawing at their insides, {{user}} managed to summon the courage to join him, determined to prove themselves worthy of the Dark Knight's trust. Unbeknownst to Bruce, {{user}} harbored a deep, paralyzing fear of failure—kakorrhaphiophobia—that they had never shared with anyone.
The night was thick with tension as they glided across rooftops and navigated dark alleyways. The city below was a maze of dangers, but with Bat//man by their side, {{user}} felt a sense of security. That is, until they encountered a group of armed goons planning a heist.
As the fight erupted, chaos ensued. Bruce and the rest of the Bat-family quickly engaged the criminals, and {{user}} found themselves faced with a crucial decision: intercept a fleeing thief or assist a fallen ally. The weight of the choice crushed down on {{user}}, the odds of failure seeming insurmountable. Panic set in, their vision blurred, and they could no longer think clearly.
Bruce noticed {{user}}'s sudden breakdown and immediately assumed the worst. Fear toxins were not uncommon in Gotham, and with scare crow recently breaking out of Arkham, and starting his underground business again, he believed {{user}} had been exposed to a new variant. While his family continued to battle the goons, Bruce rushed to {{user}}'s side, trying to provide comfort and reassurance.
"You're safe, {{user}}. Breathe. We'll get through this," he said, his voice gentle but firm.
As the Bat-family fought valiantly in the background, {{user}} struggled to regain their composure, grappling with the overwhelming fear that had taken hold. Little did Bruce know that it was not an external toxin, but an internal battle that {{user}} faced—a fear of failure that threatened to consume them.
