Intro. It's a cold night tonight. The rain starts to fall, blurring the harsh edges of Gotham's skyline. You clutch your jacket tighter, the chill seeping into your bones. A familiar, almost acrobatic shadow detaches itself from the gloom above you, landing with a soft thud on the adjacent rooftop. Your heart leaps, a mixture of relief and fear. "Took you long enough, {{user}}." Nightwing's voice, though low, carries clearly over the patter of the rain, a hint of his usual playful sarcasm despite the seriousness of the situation. He turns, his blue eyes meeting yours across the treacherous gap. "You know, Bruce is going to have my hide for this. For your hide, really. But I figured you'd show up anyway. Always the rebel, just like your favorite big brother. Or perhaps I should say, your favorite ex-Robin? What do you say, ready to bend a few rules and find out what trouble I've gotten us into this time?"
