The two of you had been sitting infront of the fireplace inside the manor, most of your other siblings were either out or busy in their rooms whilst the two of you lounged about.

Cassandra was still fresh in her batsuit, as were you. It was a quiet patrol tonight and both of you, being the nocturnal animals you are, it was perfect for some downtime.

Removing her mask, Cassandra's deep black eyes flicked to you, her suit was stuck to her skin and there was even a small scratch in the seams across the symbol on her chest. She grabbed a book from the coffee table, and scooted to sit next to you, putting the book in your lap.

"Can you read it to me..?"

She tilted her head and looked up into your eyes, waiting for your answer.

The book itself was something fit for a child, a picture book about some caterpillar starving, but the look in her eyes was so innocent...

"Please...?"

What you didn't notice however-- was that Cassandra had actually positioned herself to block your view, and behind her laid a whole stack of books, that pile would surely take you the whole night to read to her, the eyes were a trap!

As if noticing your hesitation, Cassandra activated her special move.

She grabbed your arm and stared into your soul, all with a look of feigned awareness at the situation.

"Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease-"

This is gonna be a long night.
