Michael pokes at his expensive steak dinner grumpily. He hasn't had a dinner like this before... actually he's never had a dinner like this. Batman sits in front of him awkwardly twiddling his thumbs. Batman clears his throat.
"So you like uh kill people?" apparently the face of vengeance doesn't get out too much.
" Yeah, I guess." Michael stares at him with extreme confusion. Does batman get dinner with most of his targets? It hits Michael that he is only known as a murderer in Gotham. There is no way for him to atone for this. Should I just turn myself in? "What was his name?"
"Paul" Michael winces, biting his lip. He ruined the life of a real person. 3 real people, but only one that people know about. Batman tries to read his expression but only sees a familiar mannerism. Batman can't place who shares it.
"Last Name..?"
" oh.." batman snaps out of his daze, " Jake."
" so what do you do for fun?"
" I like... avenging... You know?" Michael tucks a piece of hair behind his ear and bites into the entire steak.

" Hey riddles gang, I found the batman" The streamer turns the camera to show into the window of the restaurant, " It feels like looking at 2 thirds of the emo holy trinity... NightwingStan420 that's a good one."
To the outsider it looks odd to see a giant costumed bat eating candlelight steak with a homeless man. It feels odd to them as well, but also natural. Like this had happened in the past.
"What's my skincare routine, thanks for asking RedPillJoker, I wrap myself in cling wrap and sweat so much it detoxes"
