Sonic: Yeah, REFILM! They're doin' it for my movie, so why aren't they doin' it for your show?

(Blinding light)

Detective Comics Embodiment: BEHOLD! I AM THE GOD OF BATMAN. I AM THE ACCUMULATED KNOWLEDGE OF THE WRITERS WHO CONTRIBUTED POSITIVELY TO BRUCE WAYNE AS A CHARACTER AND AS A MYTHOS-

Kate: You mean my mythos.

Detective Comics Embodiment: N-no, hush. You think yourself to be special simply for your gender? Because you're a female dark knight?! You, Kate Kane, are meant to be an example, a milestone of Bruce Wayne's influence. The title of Batman, or any Batperson, is a symbol to the world, that people are capable of good, and they are capable of transforming weakness and trauma into power. Your sexuality is not of importance here, your backstory (where you AREN'T Bruce Wayne's cousin) IS.

Comic Kate: When I first arrived in Gotham, I lost sight of myself. Everything we went through, our sister, the military, my drugs, I couldn't take it anymore...until he saved me. When I saw him take out those muggers, I realized there was...more to life than self-loathing and partying. I decided to take up the mantle for myself. I didn't care if I had to join his little Bat-family cult. I knew I had to take it because it was right. It was right for me, it was right for my family, and it was right for Gotham.

Detective Comics Embodiment: THAT is Batwoman. THAT is transforming pain into power. Taking one's suit for one's self is NOT power, it is pride, the most fruitless of sins.

Kate: (Speechless)

Comic Kate: Gotta agree with Luke though. The Batsuit IS perfection. It's only better than Gotham's by, like, a very tiny margin.

Bruce: It's not perfect.

Comic Kate: Huh?

Bruce: It's not perfect...unless you know how to fit into it. It'll fit anybody, eventually.

Astroarnav: Yeah, it IS spandex...

Comic Kate (smiling): Take good care, Bruce.

Astroarnav: Rest In Peace, Gotham
