Barbara felt like she was in the middle of missing a step. When you’re walking down the stairs and you miss a step and there’s that moment of feeling like you’re flying and falling at the same time as your heart skips a beat and your adrenaline spikes—that was the exact feeling Barbara felt when she turned and realized that there was someone following her. She wasn’t concerned for her safety, knowing that she could fully care for herself, but that didn’t mean that she was without a care in the world. The realization that someone was following her came with the shock that someone might have found her out as Batgirl—she had been so careful to keep her identity a secret, but now, it felt like she had been stripped naked and exposed. Her paranoia and her need for control didn’t make things any better, that much was for sure.
