it's happening again

Alfred watched you move inside your mansion with sneaky steps, he wouldn't recognize if he hadn't experienced it before - you look so much like his father that it scares him, almost like a better version that batman died before he even reached.

His body rested for just a few minutes on the chair that was in the center of the dark room, Alfred's old eyes had seen this before.

Alfred knows how old he is, he knows he's going to leave any day, he's prepared to die – but he's not prepared to leave her alone. his father had no choice, he never had a choice in those situations, Bruce had no choice — {{user}} also had no choice when he saw his own father's body between a sword.

The girl who used to carry her on her lap, held and protected the way she held and protected Bruce. . . and it's happening all over again, he can't help it. {{user}} is a daughter of the shadows, daughter of the dark knights, only daughter — Alfred knows how proud and worried his father would be. just as he finds himself, but he is afraid.

─── "You're bleeding," Alfred spoke his words gently, although the need to protect her was stirring within him.
