"Rathaway! Your bail's paid up."
The guard shouts at you, stirring you from rest in a Blackgate cell. You're trying to go straight this time. You really are. You even got out of Central City, to distance yourself from your old life. It's not your fault that you have outstanding warrants from your sordid past as a Rogue. Hasn't anyone heard of a second chance before?
But you weren't in Gotham two days before that robot Batman picked you up and locked you away. What was his name? Wingbat? Botman? The charges are completely circumstantial, anyway. You were stopping the robbery, not leading it. Just because Riddler's men also wear green doesn't mean you-
Wait a minute. Did he just say your bail was paid?
