[ He decides not to bother with anonymous, but it's almost the same - he has no cuddlr, he has no available interaction on the network; this ID is effective a ghost. ]
I understand a person calling himself the Arkham Knight talked you into giving him a DNA sample.
[It puts her on guard immediately that she can't look back for information on the person. She skips the usual charm and playfulness to just get straight to the point.] You understand correctly.
[So what do you want? goes unasked. She intentionally left a paper trail for people to follow with her. She dislikes not being given the same courtesy.]
The condition he's looking for is dead, and no one in Eudio or anywhere else has it. He turned the samples and data over to me and I've destroyed them to prevent further violations of privacy; about a half-dozen scientists were involved in his desperation to justify himself. I'll be making it clear to them that it's a non-issue and any records should be disposed of.
[ Attached image: Bruce and Selina, obviously a fair few years before whatever counts as 'recent' for the one here in Eudio. It's a goofy-ass selfie obviously engineered by Selina, who's grinning (catlike, hah) and holding Bruce's chin, trying to get him to smile. If one squints, or just happens to know Bruce Wayne's stoic body language well, he could maybe be doing so. ]
I know it isn't the same, and that I may well be overstepping by sending it to you. But I thought she must look like your mother, if you mistook me for your father.
[ And that maybe she'd like it. He doesn't know what she has of her world, or when she'll be able to see it again, if that is indeed her Eudio incentive. ]
[It takes some time for a reply because it is so close to what she remembers. This could easily be her mother and father before she was born save for the length of this Selina's hair. Her mother always prided herself on getting her father to pose with her for personal photos. Her favorite, a wedding photo taken in a studio, hung up in the cave until the very end. Helena always thought it was obnoxious until the day she realized she'd never see one of them again; physical proof of a loving, happy relationship was gone forever.
(One of the many reasons she cried so often the first year.)]
You're not overstepping. I don't have any pictures of my family which I'm sure comes as no surprise to you.
[ Selina had long hair when I met her, he considers typing. She said she cut it so she could wear safer headgear, but I think she figured out it was one of the things that let me uncover her civilian identity and she was annoyed at herself. She didn't know who Batman was, then.
All too soon, I will be exiting this place and it felt wrong not to contact you and to see if you should like to see one another one last time. If you have the time to do lunch today or tomorrow, I would be happy to host.
Thanks for contacting me. We can go out for lunch this afternoon. I'd never dream of letting you leave without some goodbye.
Just let me know the place and time and I'll be there.
P.S. This has got to be the cutest text I've ever gotten. ♥ I hope you don't mind me embarrassing you one last time by telling everyone my grandpa texts letters to people.
[It takes a minute for her to push past the stabbing pain in her chest to text back. She remembers he's supposed to die. She really, really doesn't want that. He's a great guy. He's-]

She looked beautiful either way.
