Every Halloween the bats, minus Batman himself, would dress up.

If the rogues could go extra crazy and cause more trouble than usual, then so could they. There was no need to only let the bad guys have fun. At least that was the logic behind the chaos of tonight.

Once patrol was close to coming to an end, they had all decided to meet up on the roof of Wayne tower. Being one of the highest buildings around, they didn't have to fear too much if civilians saw them goofing off. They had a long night of a Scarecrow, Killer Croc and Grundy team up behind them. It's like all the spooky rogues decided today was the day to mess with them.

Too bad for them, the Batfam rolled up dressed to impress and ready to blow off steam.

Landing on the roof, Stephanie, dressed as Red Robin, collapsed in a fit of giggles. "Oh that was just amazing!"

Tim, dressed as Spoiler, landed right beside her. He half smirked at the giggly girl. "You think everything is amazing so long as you get to be a menace. I'm pretty sure you made some goons shit themselves when you popped up behind them." Much to his amusement, that only made Stephanie laugh harder.

"Tt, if anybody is worthy of such praise it would be me." Damian walked up to the pair, tugging off the Friday The 13th mask Dick had insisted on him wearing. While he hadn't wanted to do something so absurd at first, he had come to find amusement in the fear he instilled in some people. It brought back some fond memories of his assassin training days. Not like the others would call them fond per se but to him they were so that had to count as something.

"Come on, Dami. Don't be like that. I'm pretty sure I'm a good runner up too." Dick called out from the other side of the roof. Strutting over, he sassily flipped his extensions back and struck a few poses for his younger siblings to see.

"The only thing you did was give the poor fucks war flashbacks, Discowing." Jason finally arrived as well with Cassandra, dressed as Catwoman, on his heels. "PTSD from bad styling." The girl signed.

Dick dramatically fell to the ground in faux fainting. "Mocked by my own siblings, I don't know if I can take this." That got him a few hard eyerolls. "This was once fashion you know!

"Once, not now."

"Was it ever, though?"

"Tt. Are you sure that wasn't just a fever dream?"

"At least now it got immortalized as a Halloween costume for kids?"

Dick clutched his heart in a mock heart attack as he curled up on the floor. "None of you understand culture." He cried as the others openly laughed at his antics. All too soon he pouted and sat up. "At least I put in more effort than just shoving my head inside a pumpkin! What even are you, Jay?"

Jason laughed and struck a mighty pose for the crowd. "I," he declared, "am a Jack O' Hood! This took more work than you think! Do you have any idea how hard it was to carve this thing up so it would fit? Or to have the lens brightness of my helmet adjusted so it would light up the inside without blinding myself? This took days to make!" He proclaimed proudly as Cass and Steph started inspecting his handiwork.

"Is...Is this that old hoodie I stole?" Stephanie asked as she ran her hands over the tattered and ripped up hoodie Jason was wearing over his usual armor. The man shrugged as he twirled around with his arms open. "Yeah well I had to figure out something so this poor thing didn't go to waste after SOMEBODY wrecked it to hell and sucked the life out of it." Had it not been for the pumpkin on his head, Jason would have been glaring at his youngest sister.

Cass knocked on the pumpkin to take the attention off of Stephanie before a brawl could erupt. "Sturdy." She signed once she knew Jason was looking at her. He nodded and knocked on it himself for good measure. "Sturdy and stuffy as hell. Seriously, even the helmet fans can't keep up with the lack of ventilation." Jason tried to pull it off.
