Summary
They sat on opposite sides of the old wooden desk, a tall stack of paperwork to their left and another to their right, each one hovering menacingly over them as if threatening to come crashing down at any given moment.

Summary
The trouble with Bruce Wayne is, well, he’s Bruce Wayne.
As in Bruce Wayne, billionaire industrialist and notorious playboy.
Bruce. Wayne.
As for Jim Gordon, well, he prides himself on being a simple kind of man, resourceful and intelligent and stubborn enough where it counts. He thinks he’s goddamn courageous to have ventured out into deep waters with Bruce to pursue what Gordon had long ago accepted was simply not possible for a man like him, so he’s not quite ready to admit that quite frankly, he’s woefully out of his depths where Bruce is concerned.
Not yet, anyway.

Summary
Rachel Dawes sits comfortably behind Jim Gordon’s desk, legs crossed, one foot dangling up and down as she waits patiently for her friend. It’s a pleasant, peaceful environment — a far cry from the chaotic mess it was when he’d first moved in. She surveys the space around her with an approving expression. The goldfish look content in their little habitat and the plant on the window sill practically preens itself on the sunlight it’s receiving.
As entertaining as it is to tease him, she’s happy for him. He’s finally figured it all out — and that makes her proud.

Summary
The trouble with Bruce Wayne is, once he trusts you completely, he thinks you’re at his beck and call.
Rachel Dawes is long used to it and tells him to knock it off.
“Seriously, Bruce. Stop it. I already said I’ll be there.”
Sunday brunch at Wayne Manor is not an invitation so much as it is declarative. Mandatory weekly attendance for the two people who mean all the world to Bruce Wayne, so of course, Rachel Dawes will be there. It’s a new tradition all their own.
As for Jim Gordon? For him, it’s a damn novelty that he doesn’t think will ever, ever wear off. When it comes to Sunday brunch, there’s probably a perfect attendance trophy somewhere with his name engraved on it.

Summary
She tosses and turns.
The adrenaline from earlier is long gone, but sleep still won’t come.
There’s a soft knock at the door.
For a second, she chooses to ignore it—but it’s persistent. Not demanding. Just the right amount of penitence.
“Come in, Jim.”
