Gotham is freezing over.

He's never seen it so cold, his fingers are practically stuck together and all he's done is take them out of his pockets for a second to adjust his mask.

And then he sees you. Laid out in an alleyway in the freezing cold. Usually, he'd mind his own business, but he's on patrol so he might as well help a citizen out. He's trying to be good like Nightwing's been getting on him about.

So he kneels in front of you and pokes your face. That's the proper way to check if someone's alive. Hopefully.
