night four; hunter kill

[gamehead]

[Around half an hour after the hunters have chosen their kill, a box will appear on the ground filled with an array of butcher's instruments. Kanaya Maryam also appears, unconscious, with her wrists bound behind her back. Critter giggles to itself.]

Remember, the cause of death is blood loss. No cheating, everybody!

[...]

I'm Bruce Wayne. [It was the truth. As much as he didn't like it...that was who he was. Who he turned back into.] I'm not the person you knew. Not anymore. Things change and so do we. Don't ever forget that.

[He waits until Kanaya's body is with life no more before stepping away from her and walking to the rest. But, he stops by Edward's side and speaks again, softer.]

Have you changed, Edward? I wonder that as well...

[brainteaser]

Would you believe me if I said I had? [Probably not.

But that doesn't change the fact that Edward has a family now. Surely the old man's noticed that. And yet...

And yet that family of his wasn't enough to break him of his compulsions, just this once, as the game continued on. He's lied to them. Deceived them. Manipulating Ema now just as he had back when he was still a criminal. In that case, can he really say he's changed...? ] ...I doubt I would, either.

If you can't even believe in yourself, then you don't have a right to judge me.

[He never asked to be put on a pedestal. He was just a man fighting a war all his life. Now, he's fighting a new war. One he will have to pay for at the end, but for the time being he'll fight it.

With that, he walks away from Edward.]
