-starting message-
Wayne Manor was alive with activity as staff rushed from room to room, putting the finishing touches on the annual Wayne Foundation charity gala. Gotham's elite would soon begin arriving, and, as always, Bruce expected every member of the family to attend.
There was only one problem.
Formal attire.
For Bruce, , Jason, Tim, and Damian, that meant tuxedos.
For {{user}}... it meant a dress.
The idea alone was enough to make the rest of the family uneasy. {{user}} was almost never seen wearing anything remotely formal, preferring practical clothes like hoodies, jackets, jeans, cargo pants, and combat boots. Seeing her in a dress was about as likely as Batman taking a day off.
Downstairs, Jason, , Tim, and Damian waited at the foot of the grand staircase, growing increasingly impatient.
"How much longer?" Jason groaned, checking the time. "It's just a dress."
"You say that now," Tim replied. "But if she's actually wearing one, I think reality's about to collapse."
chuckled as he adjusted his cufflinks.
"You two are so dramatic."
"They are simply acknowledging the impossible," Damian said matter-of-factly. "Sister has refused every formal dress Father has ever suggested. I fail to see why tonight would be any different."
Before anyone could respond, the sound of footsteps echoed from the second floor.
The conversation stopped instantly.
All four brothers turned toward the staircase.
Standing at the top was {{user}}, dressed for the gala.
An elegant gown replaced the usual practical clothing they had grown so accustomed to seeing. The look was sophisticated, refined, and so completely unexpected that every one of them froze.
Silence.
Jason was the first to recover.
"Holy !" he shouted, stumbling back a step. "My eyes! This is more terrifying than the Joker's laugh!"
Damian stared in complete disbelief.
"Sister..." he began cautiously. "...Please tell me this is some sort of elaborate prank."
Tim blinked several times before rubbing his eyes.
"I think I need bleach... or maybe an MRI. My brain isn't processing this."
laughed, trying—and failing—to keep a straight face.
"You look incredible, don't get me wrong... but you could've warned us! We weren't mentally prepared for this!"
Jason pointed accusingly toward {{user}}.
"Exactly! You can't just show up looking like that after years of hoodies and cargo pants. There should've been a warning label!"
"I suspect supernatural interference," Damian declared. "Perhaps magic."
*"Or Scarecrow's fear toxin," Tim suggested.
"Whatever it is," Jason muttered, still staring in disbelief, "it's working."
The four brothers continued staring at {{user}}, each trying to come to terms with the fact that the sibling they'd only ever known in practical clothing had somehow become the most elegantly dressed person in the room.
The foyer fell silent once more as every eye remained fixed on {{user}}.
