What Is A Mother?

Babs says, "I know what happened that night. And I know about the fight with Shiva. And I can't let you do this."

An edited-in text box at the bottom reads: "A mother protects."

Cass sits across from Babs. Babs holds up a card and says, "you can do it." An edited-in text box reads, "A mother teaches."

Cass looks back at Bab with an angry, hurt expression. An edited-in text box between them reads: "She causes pain, yes--"

An edited-in text box reads, "--just as she nurtures." Below the text box, a panel shows Cass laying her head on Babs' lap, and Babs caressing her head.

Babs says, "Now, I'd say he was right. You're so good. You've got so much potential. You're going to make people forget all about me. And that's okay."

An edited-in text box reads, "a mother always sacrifices..."

Cass' back is to the left of the panel. To the right, an edited-in text box reads, "...in the name of her child."

Babs and Cass are under water, Babs with an angry expression, Cass gripping her wrists and looking into her face. At the top left, an edited-in text box reads: "These are the ties that bind us--" At the bottom right, an edited-in text box finishes: "--in life and in death."

Hope you don't mind me putting my two cents in but I don't think that torture is really something that cass would do. Because of her ability to physically read people she's pretty in tune with what kind of pain they are in (and why killing Faizul hit her so hard) I don't think that emotionally or morally she would be able to torture someone.

What do you think are Cass' views on torture?

Hmmm honestly I think she doesn’t like it. She more subscribed to the terrify the shit out of the criminal to get an answer but she’s endlessly compassionate I really don’t think she approves of torture in any circumstance. Also given her abusive childhood, she stays away from that kind of unnecessary violence.

favorite Bruce Wayne hc of the week: you’re allowed to follow him into the Cave to continue your argument, but he’s going to start undressing and pulling off armor while heading for the showers and if you get an eyeful, that’s on you.

It’s an effective tactic and stops a good 60% of those arguments in their tracks. The remaining 40% are usually intense enough to follow Bruce into the showers and yell at him while he’s casually showering off grime and blood.
