Re: bruce/steph.
You, along with the majority of Gotham's citizens, are under the influence of a drug. I was as well until recently. I tested my blood and it's a combination of substances, I'm still identifying all of them. [...] Your view of the world isn't real. You are not just another wealthy teenager. You're smart, resourceful, and strong. Eddie was a criminal who turned his life around, and your relationship is much more than what it appears to be. You fought extremely hard for the title of Batgirl and there is no one else more deserving of it. That is who you are.
As for Gotham, it's full of crime. It's nowhere near being perfect. The man Eddie attacked? He isn't the police commissioner. He's a criminal, and a very dangerous one at that.
