🦇 Leave a comment with your muses in the areas you want!
🦇 Remember to tag out to others!

COZY, COMFY, AUTUMN LEAVES FALL

🍁 Rainy Changes.
The seasons are changing, and the fall rains are here. The leaves are falling. Where are you? Out in the city, or maybe walking through the rain thinking about the upcoming season?

🍁 Leaf Piles.
Guess what? The autumn leaves are in piles. Time to bomb in or push someone else in!

🍁 Coffee Read-Me Time.
What better to do than curl up and read with a favorite book, forum post, or social media feed? Enjoy the changing of the seasons from inside. Maybe you'll even have some company.

🍁 Make Your Own.

Why not make your own adventure as the nights turn longer and the temperature drops?

SPOOKY, SCARY HALLOWEEN

🦇 Trick-Or-Treat.
Are you taking others out on the festivities? Giving away the candy? Or maybe just watching as the madness unfolds? Either way, it's a perfect time for a fright.

🦇 Monster Mash AU.
What if you were a vampire, a werewolf, a witch/wizard, vampire hunter, mummy, ghost, or any other flavor of spook? Time to roll the dice and see what might happen if your fate was just a bit more frightful...

🦇 The Long Halloween.
How about a horrible scary night? Locked in a scary house? Maybe someone has driven everyone mad. Maybe vampires are on the loose, or there is even a zombie invasion! Whatever is happening, the dawn is far off, and you may not survive the night...

🦇 Spirit of Halloween
Is that the Headless Horseman? Are you suddenly in Sleepy Hollow? Yes, you are. Enjoy a town that makes you feel like you walked into a living incarnation of the Spirit of Halloween store... but they're not costumes.

🦇 Make Your Own.
Why not write your own Thriller?

[morghon]

1. Why are there coffee stains in the backseat? Is this pumpkin spice or do I not want to know?

2. Sorry I'm going to be late, I didn't want to go. I was kinda hoping they'd uninvite me if I didn't show up.

3. If I agree to be the designated sober person, do you promise there won't be any glitter involved in my costume or otherwise?

Leaf Piles!

[speedberry]

Barry's never been shy about using his power for his personal enjoyment, and today is no different. What is different is that he's inadvertently popped into another dimension of the multiverse. He just hasn't slowed down enough to realize it yet.

No, he's too busy zooming through piles of leaves, taking a few seconds to clear an entire park of its leaves and mound them into a massive pile. He zooms a couple of miles away, then zooms back in, blowing right past a certain CEO as he launches himself at the pile with a howl of delight. Leaves explode in every direction, some reduced to powder, others fluttering in the wind. "Come on in, the leaves're fine!" he yells, unaware that his antics aren't business as usual in this particular city.

Text to eventual action

[afarmersdream]

Are you busy next Saturday? There's a charity that could use some attention.

[Only it's not the kind of charity event that requires Bruce in a tux.

So it's not another ambush dinner, but it is another ambush intended to pull Bruce towards the light]

[ipushpeople]

What's this apple picking thing and why is everyone obsessed with it?

trick or treat

[7soundsright]

[The knocks come first, clear as day. When Bruce opens the door, no one's there. However, when he turns back around to his own home, the Devil stands there with a smirk on her lips]

Trick or treat.

//wherever I follow you//

[farcry]

Like it? [ Dick steps out and stretches his arms out at his sides as if putting himself on display. Bruce hasn't seen this suit up close and personal yet, not in person, anyway, and he'd be lying if he tried to say he wasn't nervous about Bruce's reaction.

They're standing in the Batcave underneath the glass house. It's been a few days since he arrived and in true Bat fashion, like Bruce had taught him to, Dick had brought the suit with him. A few frank discussions had made it easier to talk to Bruce, although Dick wouldn't go so far to say that they're on good terms. At least it seems like both of them are trying for that direction, though. Bringing out the suit feels like revealing a new part of himself to Bruce.

Black armored plates stretch out along his body, sculpted to protect, seamed in places suited to his acrobatic style. The cobalt blue stemming from the middle of his chest blooms across to his shoulders then stretches down his arms to the very tips of his fingers. It catches in the dim light of the cave. A black domino mask frames his eyes, warm browns watching, half weary, half guarded, for Bruce's reaction. ]

I wanted to show it to you. Nightwing. Not Robin anymore.

spooks time 🦇

[morghon]

[ So, Halloween. Jon used to like Halloween. He and Robb had pranked their siblings once, down in the crypts; Arya hadn't been fooled but Sansa had run off in tears, and it had felt good for five whole minutes despite being covered in flour. Until they got back in the house and Catelyn gave him an earful.

He drives carefully through the neighborhood, watching the kids already up and about, going from house to house. It's almost nostalgic, but even if the Wayne kids were actually into that sort of thing, they didn't have the time for that anymore. Not really. Not since that girl fell from the sky and set the future in motion, a future they apparently had to change or else they were all doomed.

He comes to a dead end, parking in front of an ominous-looking abandoned house; a most appropriate setting for a paranormal investigation, and the irony's not lost on him. Jesse is already waiting on the porch.

He opens the passenger seat window and calls out from the inside: ] You want your pumpkin spice now, or later?

[ hit him with anything. this is like normal days for him! ]

[thisblankpage]

The plague burned through the country and then the world in the short span of a summer. Superflu, Captain Trips, different regions called it different things but the end was always the same. 98% mortality, leaving the remaining population to wander shell shocked through the world.

Survival wasn't easy though.
There were the dreams. Nick had already been a vivid dreamer, even when he was a kid in the orphanage. Thrashing and moving but never screaming.

And when the world ended and it was only him stuck in Shoyo Arkansas, his dreams sharpened. The Dark Man marshalling his forces in the West. A kind old black woman, Mother Abigail in Nebraska. Hemmingford Home and fields of sweet smelling corn. The Dark Man was terrifying in his promise of riches and wealth and fists dark with blood.

They were all real, Nick was sure of it.

He just didn't know what to make of it. Where he had to go next.

[ HIS LIFE IS ALWAYS HALLOWEEN HAHAHA hit him with whatever. ]

🍁Books always wins out

[hosannas_of_anguish]

After weeks of talking to the anon friend, even if he knew who the man was not, Jonathan would still refer to him as anon friend. It was probably better anyway. He's heard enough stories about that man to know even speaking to him was likely a bad idea. Even worse, was inviting him to meet up at least once if he was ever in Gotham. A low key coffee shop was idea. Public place, plenty of exits if the Bat appeared.

Jonathan had taken the time to cover the scars on his face and popped in blue contacts. Every time he's arrested his face gets blasted on television so going out in the day, or early evening was just smarter in a disguise. Scarecrow disagreed, as he often does, but Jonathan didn't really care what Scarecrow thinks at the moment as long as he behaved. He had brought a small bag of books with him, sitting at his side, the books bought from that estate sale. He assumed it would be best to bring them with him. He didn't even realize they once belonged to one of Brother Blood's followers.

Jonathan himself, was sitting at a table, black coffee half drank before him, and a new psychology book half read before him, his long black nails tapping the table, he was dressed in all black, this was neither business nor pleasure so it was his normal work clothes, black jeans and a black button up shirt, which didn't favor his pale skin or wild ginger hair. He didn't expect a man like Constantine to be timely.

how about... batfam flavored, trick-or-treat?

[bringadream]

Morpheus is not one to visit the mortal realm often. Especially on a night such as All Hallows Eve. And yet, as the world shifts and shutters as the greater of humanity realizes that their world is much larger than their own? He is drawn to it. There was time spent in captivity -- watching as mortals aged and desperately begged him to save them from his sister. Things he did not do. Now with his items of power restored and he truly became the Lord of Dreams again... Morpheus waits. He watches. He protects the Dreaming.

And, sometimes, he visits those who seem troubled. Mortals who can change the course of humanity's subconscious and therefore affect the Dreaming. Or he truly is lonely.

Morpheus stands at the end of the street and watches as the children run by house to house. It is a quiet neighborhood in Gotham. One that is not bombarded by drugs, sex, gangs or the mob. A peaceful reprieve in a city that teeters on madness. There he waits for the lone Kryptonian left on Earth.

[7soundsright]

The club is all right but the Devil snorts, finishing her apple martini quickly when Lucifer takes to the stage. She lives to be the showstopper, but this is a different level that even she wouldn't go near.

She makes her way back to the bar and places the empty glass down, making eye contact with one of the bartenders. Well, hello, demon.

"Apple martini, babe," she says.

Setting this in the weird future they show us a sneak peak of.

[agathaheterodyne]

"Are you sure about this?" the bearded man asked.

"Oh stop whining. You'll be fine. Probably," Agatha said, a mad gleam in her eyes.

"It's the probably that worries me," he muttered, heading for the machine. "This is just going to take me to another room in the Castle?"

"Yes, and the boys are there, ready to let me know when you arrive," Agatha said, impatiently.

"I could let you know..." the disembodied voice of the Castle offered.

"Yes, but as I want him to SURVIVE, that's not my best choice," Agatha pointed out.

"If you want me to survive then maybe it's best I don..." he saw the look in her eye and deflated. "You don't want the Castle to kill me because that doesn't tell you if the experiment killed me. I'll just get into the machine now?"

"Don't worry," Agatha soothed. "I have the revivification rig all set up. I even modified it."

"Joy," he said, dryly. He stepped into the large ring like frame and vanished. But instead of him appearing elsewhere in the Castle, someone from Elsewhere came through the ring. She hadn't meant to accidentally kidnap batman, but apparently that was what she had achieved. Whoopsie.


Agatha would be more or less as he recalled her, perhaps a year or two older, maybe. She was dressed in a long lab coat over a more basic dress than she'd been wearing, and was perhaps more disheveled, but still Agatha. Goggles shoved up into her hair, glasses smudged, oil all over her, and a small carpet of her little robots running around the floor carrying tools and machine parts.

The lab they were in was like something out of a mad science comic book. There was a table of brightly coloured chemicals, odd tools all over the place, the acrid tang of burning... something. There were even some dark rust flakes on the floors and walls that could be.. old blood.

"Hmmmm...." she said, seeing him. "That wasn't what that was supposed to do..."

"Permission to kill the intruder?" the Castle asked, the voice seeming to come from somewhere...up.

"Denied. No maiming, poisoning, or otherwise harming."

"How boring," the Castle said. It sounded like it was sulking.

sorry, I was expecting a tag to Bruce's thread so I lost this PHFT

[menarebrave]

Batman stood tall, a dark shadow against the rest of the room. His eyes scanned along his new prison. It was hard to tell what might of been new or older, or something he could break, since most the materials seemed foreign. Though he wasn't unfamiliar to the concept of the multiverse now. There had been too many versions of people he had met to be even phased by something like this now.

A voice from the building he was in. Artifice intelligence maybe?

And also for the bat....

[mamezo]

One of the problems with super villains is that their plans don't just effect their targets. In this case, it opened a portal or some other such that sucked in... a small child.

He had been jumping down from somewhere tall in his own world, so he had momentum as he landed on Batman's back. He slid down the cape unless stopped, staring around, terrified. "Usagi? Usagi?!" Where was he? Where was Usagi?

The kid was a tiny little thing, with what looked like bandages wrapped around his wrists and ankles. He wore wrapped sleeveless robe belted at the waist. On the back of his belt was a pouch made from a small anima's tail, and in that pouch rode a small puppy dog. His reddish hair was all a mess, and he was dirty as kids that age playing out doors tend to be.

[menarebrave]

The Batman stepped in the room too late. The portal opened and out popped a small child. He... stared. Not at the state of the child, or at the bandages or robes that he wore. It was the sheer frustration that yet again the fabric of the multiverse seemed to be buckling.

He took another step into the light for the child. Though, something of his size and his shape was probably off putting.
