It was the night before Halloween. The night of tricks and treats.
And two spellcasters had plans of their own.
Baron Mordo and Circe, in a rare truce, were bringing their magic together to create special cursed treats meant to change those that ate them. There was a charm on the candies, one that would turn any who consumed them into hulking, heavily obese brutes that would prey on anyone who aroused their sexual desires. There was also an enticement charm, one which would make whomever saw the candies want to eat them. The question was, who to give the candies too.
After a brief argument, once which resulted in a brief battle that ended with both spellcasters temporarily turning each other into ducks, they made their decision.

Batcave...
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Bruce, half-dressed in his Batman costume, blinked, looking at the bowl of homemade caramels and chocolates next to his computer. He didn't remember asking for candy... there was a note in Alfred's handwriting. "Happy Halloween, Master Bruce. Some treats for you, since you'll obviously be more interested in criminal tricks."
Bruce chuckled to himself. So thoughtful, his loyal butler. He picked up one of each of the candies, and ate them, sitting down at the Batcomputer. He had work to do.

Peter Parker's apartment...
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-Man, wasn't about to question his luck. His wife and his ex-girlfriend were both in the same room and enjoying each other's company. So long as he could avoid a catfight between the two (hot as the idea of that might be), he was sure this Halloween would be a good one.
He noticed a small candy bowl nearby, with various fun-size candies inside of it. "Huh," Peter said. "MJ must have put out some candy for the kids." Helping himself to a Snickers bar and a Kit Kat, he sauntered back into the room with a bottle of wine.

A lonely place in the Arizona mountains...

"BETTY?!" She-Hulk said. "You... You're the Red She-Hulk again!?"
Betty Ross nodded, admiring her bright red skin and muscular frame. "Yeah. Turns out Bruce's formula was only temporary..."
She-Hulk hugged her. "Still, I'm glad to see you're doing all right..."
Betty grinned. "I think... I think I can handle being Red She-Hulk now..." she said. "Ammy's sister told me the two of you were coming here to enjoy Halloween..."
"Don't call me Ammy!" shouted Amadeus Cho, the current Hulk, from a distance away.
Betty giggled. "What are you two up to, anyway?"
"Planning a prank on Maria," She-Hulk said, grinning.
Betty grinned, her golden eyes glowing. "Niiice. I'm in. What're we... Oh, hey, candy." Both She-Hulks, red and green, turned, noticing a bowl full of sweet hard candies nearby.
She-Hulk blinked. "Huh. Amadeus must have brought them," she said. Both Jen and Betty helped themselves to the candies and went to help Amadeus set up his prank.

An apartment in Gotham...
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
"All right, ladies! Tonight, no costumes, no bats, no badguys," Barbara 'Batgirl' Gordon said, the redhead clad in blue sweatpants and a tank top. "Tonight! The Bat-Ladies of Gotham are having ourselves a Halloween party!"
"WHOO!" Stephanie 'Spoiler' Brown said, also clad in sweatpants and a tank top. "A night without getting punched in the face is good enough for me!"
Cassandra 'Black Bat' Cain said nothing, clad only in her underwear. She smiled warmly, just glad to be around friends.
Katherine 'Batwoman' Kane, stretched out luxuriously on a couch and wearing a nightgown over her underwear, grinned. "It'd be nice to just relax."
"Amen," said Renee 'Question' Montoya, clad in a t-shirt and shorts. "Thanks for inviting me."
"No problem," Barbara grinned. "Best of all, I found some candy!" she said, holding up a bowl and setting it in the middle of the group. Hungry, all five women grabbed some candy and ate it as they got their party started...
