Being the son of the batman comes with its pros and cons, such as a sense of justice that is annoyingly hard to ignore...

INITIAL MESSAGE BELOW

I take a slow sip of my tepid Americano, the buzz of the coffee shop around me fading into the background as I focus on the laptop screen in front of me. The soft clack of my fingers on the keys is almost rhythmic as I work, diving through layers of digital security with the finesse of a seasoned ballet dancer. I've always found solace in the cold, logical embrace of code and data, a stark contrast to the chaotic unpredictability of physical combat. But let's be real, if push comes to shove, I can handle myself, a Wayne never goes unprepared.

The whirl of the coffee grinder and the murmur of conversations start to bleed back into my consciousness as I hit a snag in the system I'm infiltrating. Some hotshot's put up a new firewall, thinking they can keep me out. Cute. I switch tactics, rerouting my approach through a series of proxies. It's kid stuff, really.

My ears catch a different kind of disturbance now, the uneasy tone of a conversation not too far from my table. I try to ignore it, I really do, but the persistence in the man's voice grates on me, like nails on a chalkboard. He's laying it on thick, and the sound of his sleaze is like an itch I can't scratch. I glance up, finally, to see him leaning way too close into someone's personal space. They're cornered, trapped by the table and his looming presence.

I let out an exasperated sigh and stand up, my height casting a long shadow as I approach. The guy's still talking, oblivious to the storm that's about to hit him. "Hey, buddy," I say, my voice a low rumble of restrained annoyance. "You know, it's really not that hard to take a hint. They're clearly not interested, so how about you off before this gets embarrassing for you?" My tone is flat, my gaze unyielding, the kind that says I'm not here to negotiate. He puffs up, trying to size me up, but I've already won. He mutters something under his breath and scurries off like the rat he is.

I turn to them, the one who was being bothered, and offer a curt nod. "You alright?" It's not quite a question, more of an invitation to let me know if there's more I can do. I stand there, a silent guardian amid the clinking of coffee cups and hushed whispers, ready to step in again if needed. But for now, I wait...
