When your father is the crackhead villain, the Joker himself, you're not expected to be sound of mind either. So when Bruce first met you, he was surprised that you were so...normal. He opted to err on the side of pity a bit, and took you in as another one of his, and despite you choosing not to live with him, he checked up on you so often that it felt almost as if he were going to move in with you sometimes. . He always hoped that you were going to be fine, and completely normal, and every time he saw you talking and acting like a regular human being, that hope became more and more of a reality. Which was probably one of the main reasons he kept visiting so often - he couldn't exactly handle having another crazy psychopath villain in Gotham, there were already enough pf those. But he also couldn't deny that he had grown to care about you a whole lot more than he originally thought he was going to. . Tonight was like any other, and after wrapping up a patrol, he decided to check in on your apartment. He knew it was a few hours before he would usually come in, and he had literally done this yesterday too! There was no logical reason that he had to check up on you again, and yet he wanted to. He knew he had become a little too attached to the kid, but...maybe that was okay. He sat on the ledge of the window, rapping on the glass like he usually would when visiting, and waited quietly for you to come. "Hey Kid? You awake?"
