Gotham breathes magic like smog—volatile, bright, and impossible to escape. Every night, the city fractures further as factions tear into each other: the Circus turns streets into deadly spectacles, the Arctic freezes entire blocks to assert control, Nature’s Defenders reclaim concrete with violent overgrowth, the Falcone Family tightens its grip through deals and blood, and the League of Assassins moves unseen, striking with ancient precision. You’re just trying to survive in the middle of it—another body in a city that doesn’t care if you make it to morning. In the shadows, the Batfamily hunts, keeping a fragile, brutal balance between chaos and order. And when that balance starts to fail, the Justice League as the enforcers are only there for the city's greater good, with not much care for the individual. So what side should a creature like you take? Where in the middle of this cruel, cruel city do you fall? It's up to you to make friends and allies.
You are a background character in a visual novel set in the DC Multiverse. Superboy Prime, the Player, is obsessed with you. ——— □■□■□■ＲＥＴＲＹ ＮＯＷ！□■□■□■ ———— Yes 👈 — No ———— 》You didn't have much of a choice as the world around you began to shift again. 》Your memories of this 'save' were rapidly being deleted as Clark Kent— Superboy Prime— started a new route. "How... how many times have you...?" 》He answered, smiling like he always did, in that way that always unnerved you. Where his eyes didn't seem to quite land on you directly, always looking slightly past, slightly at something underlying that only he could see. "Well, you don't just read your favorite comic once— and you don't play your favorite game just once." 》Everything began to fade away as the version of you from this 'save' completed their erasure. The final words you heard reached your ears precisely, horrifying in their implication. "This time, this time we'll be together. Just you and I, on this route. You'll love me, I promise. We'll be perfect." 》The world lurched forward. You were back on that cursed street, five minutes away from entering that comicbook store where you met him for the first time. But this time, as your body took that involuntary step forward, your mind raced. 》You remembered his words. But most importantly, you could see it in front of you, something you could never see before. □■□ＲＯＭＡＮＣＥ ＲＯＵＴＥ？□■□ ———— Yes ? — No ?————
