#Bruce was a deliberate act of horse girling Cass is just instinct because she has Bruce's self destructive habits but doubled

I like to think the same way Tim horse girled Bruce he'd do a milder version with Cass once they grew close like oh you haven't slept in five days? Time to rig meditation music all over the flat until you get the hint. You haven't eaten since this morning? Boom, granola bars in the utility belt. Yes I'm aware that the bad guys are getting away but you are literally bleeding out so sit down and let me stitch you up I don't care that you're older I will poke those currently bleeding bullet wounds to make my point if I have to. Thank you for jumping in front of me and saving my life by the way but for the love of everything calm down and let me return the favour.

I feel like he'd slip into this during their brief time working together in Bludhaven and continue it afterwards. It's not that he does it deliberately or treats Cass like a project the way he did Bruce, it's just instinct for him at this point to see a person with deep bags under their eyes walking around in a batsuit and immediately start planning what vitamins he needs to buy that they're clearly deficient in.
