Dalia walked down the steps of City Hall and over to a bench on the corner where she and James were supposed to meet.

"Hey," he said, giving Dalia a smile.

"I'm good." He wouldn't tell her about lunch just yet. "How're you?"

"Sounds great," he replied, starting down the sidewalk. "How's work going?"

"It's...going."

City Hall was a mess.

The streets of Gotham...were getting cleaned up.

She didn't mention either, both for different reasons.

"How's your day been?"

"Long." He smiled faintly. Then, though, he pulled out his wallet and offered her a plain business card. "She's getting some style."

Gotham Pier #4, 11 PM. He turned it over to show her the back, where the old-fashioned Bat Symbol had been drawn.

"Well, lah-dee-dah," Dalia rolled her eyes. And then, "Of course it was long...it's Gotham and you're a cop. Did you at least get in a lunch?" She said it affectionately, looking over at him with a concerned smile.

"Hey, I like arranged meetings rather than her usual coming up behind me act," James muttered, shaking his head. He put an arm around Dalia's waist lightly. "Yeah... managed a lunch at a cafe. Coffee always helps with long days."

Dalia smiled, putting her arm around him in return. "Coffee's good for that. Glad you got in lunch, though."

"Thankfully," he replied. Then, after a moment, he said, "I ended up, er, meeting your cousin."

Dalia frowned, confused. "My cousin?"

James shrugged slightly. "Joshua."

"Joshua? He's not my--you met him?? He--why?!"

"He was in the cafe too. I think he came in specifically to talk to me."

"Why?" Dalia exclaimed. "Why would he--what did he say to you?"
