Re: DC: Talia & Ra's
[Inside the penthouse, he heard the ding of her arrival and closed his eyes. Last time, his daughter had not been here and it felt too long since he had last seen her. Oh, they'd had their fights, her moments of waffling back and forth between what she knew in her heart to be true and those moments when her willfulness got in the way, but she always came back.
The briefest of smiles had his lips twitching upward when he heard her again. His youngest daughter, the most impetuous, but also the one he was most proud of. He straightened his tie, a lighter shade of gray than his suit, and rose from the chair turned outward to view Gotham. This body still felt different, the lines longer than his had been, the muscles not as bulky as his had been when he was younger, but they would seem natural eventually, he trusted.]
Talia. Daughter. [And all traces of the smile were gone as he turned towards her.]
