If you're not knitting, the terrorists win

A Letter From AW

My Dearest Patwoman,

February already, my darling. The Month d’Amor. And though you are never far from my thoughts, as Valentine’s Day approaches, my (other) thoughts, of course, turn to you. Oh Patwoman! How can I resist the desire I have for you? Everywhere I turn, I am reminded of our tempestuous and titillating history together.

Do you remember Helsinki? All those moonlit nights—you, me, and the Bat-a-rang? Say that excitement is not merely in the past, but that it burns in your heart the way it burns in mine!

Oh Patwoman, you voluptuous vixen! How I yearn for you to knit for me, the way you once did. Just a few stitches, you crafty minx—a turn or two around the circular needle, if you will—to demonstrate that your affection for me is not mere fiction, but that it is epic. (Much in the way the Batster, himself, is more than fiction.) A cape, a cowl, a mohair whip to enslave my heart forever.

Or, if you will, stitch a naughty costume—some alluring attire designed to stimulate decadent dreams. We can renew our passion for one another. We can animate our animal natures. Drive our desires. Pursue our passions. Wear out our welcome. Patwoman, do we dare relive Helsinki?

I await your response. As always, I am a bat to your flame.

AW

Sweet Adam,

Forget Helsinki? Never! It was Helsinki, after all, when you first introduced me to the Bat Utility Belt. (And how it holds up the Bat-tights… remember?) It was Helsinki where you first gave your, uh, heart to me. And Helsinki where I first gave you a, uh, heart too.

Ah, such memories! Those rooftop chases, those will-she/won’t-she moments. (Of course, she would! I think we’ve established she definitely would. And more.) How could I ever forget your efforts to turn me to the side of good?

That’s what the whipped cream was for, right? To turn me to the side of good?

And so, in memory of those nights, I have crafted for you, Adam. I’ve crocheted something that reminds me of you. And of Helsinki.

Oh, er, um. Hm. Now that I look at this and I remember Helsinki…

Adam—Call me.

Patwoman
