"So what are you wearing under there Alf?" Selina asked as she strolled up to the old man.
"None of your business Miss Kyle."
"Lets go," Bruce gestured for Dick and Barbara to follow him.
"Where are they going?" Selina asked.
"None of your business Miss Kyle," Alfred kept his face flat.
----------------------------------------------------------
Barbara was surprised how fast Dick and Bruce changed once they took the hidden elevator to their rooms. She followed them towards the drawing room where her father waited, but didn't go in. Lord only knew what the sight of his daughter in latex would
do to the poor old man.
"Alright, we have all pretended to not know what has been going on for far too long!" her father shouted, "I got a call from Barbara's room mate asking where she is, now she is not here with me, and she is not at school, last time people saw her or anyone
that seemed like her was last night when a latex Batgirl broke up a robbery at Gothcorp headquarters!"
"You know what we are doing," Bruce was ominous.
"What you are doing is one thing! What my daughter is doing is something completely different!" Jim barked, "And who she is doing is also very much an issue at hand."
"The rumors of my womanizing are very exsagerated Jim," Bruce said, "You know I don't have time for half the women the tabloids run headlines about."
"Maybe not you! But what the hell have you gotten my little girl into BOY BLUNDER!" Jim shouted.
Barbara closed her eyes, in her mind she saw her father reaching under his trench coat for the revolver in the armpit holster. If this kept up, some one was going to die.
"Mr. Gordon, the only time I have taken your daughter out, You already knew about!" Dick tried to protest.
"Then what the hell is going on in this city? Why are my officers acting all sorts of weird and superheroes running around in BDSM gear?" Jim bellowed.
"Because I did this to them," Barbara announced walking into the drawing room, "Dad, something weird happened, and now I started spreading this to everyone."
Jim was flabbergasted when he saw his daughter.
"In another world another me started a chain reaction of events," Barbara started, "I got switched with that other me, and now after she broke up the Gothcorp robbery I switched back with her. And now I have been trying to help clean up the mess, but..."
Jim rushed Barbara and hugged her.
"Barbara, thank god you are alright," Jim cried, "We'll find a cure for this."
"Dad, there was never a cure in the otherworld," Barbara cried, "It's magic..."
"All the people who might be able to break the curse seem to be influnaced by it by now," Bruce intoned, "We were trying to contain it. It seems to have failed."
"I get the feeling we are still forgetting something," Dick said, "Wait what about Darkseid?"
"The invasion has been called off," Alfred announced, "so has the live TV coverage. No one wants to trade an Emmy for the fines from the FFC for broadcasting hardcore pornography."
"What?" Selina shouted from the hallway.
"It would seem that Wonder Woman is in the middle of coutis with the invader. Superman seems helpless to stop it."
"Who else is here?" Jim asked.
"Ah Miss Kyle," Bruce sheepishly said.
Jim staggered back to the love seat.
"Dad?" Barbara was concerned.
"What the hell happens now?" Jim gasped, "What about this?"
Barbara's face blushed as her father gestured towards her latex outfit.
"Jim, we don't know."
"Dad, as long as I don't have to hide this from you, I can get other clothes from my room, I have been stuck in latex since I had nothing else since my switch-a-roo," Barbara smiled weakly.
"That's not what I meant..."
"Well the curse? Yeah, it's spreading," Barbara admitted, "Hugging me means that you are now infected too. What's more Poison Ivy made a super rubber tree to expand the capacity of the rubber industry. From what I saw on the other Earth, it is going to
get really kinky and then the new normal will settle in and it will settle down. Dad, I know this is hard, but seeing you and Sarah in latex about gave me a heart attack too."
"You aren't the only one," Jim rubbed his head, "She jumped in my office, that outfit was absolutely not department approved!"
"Sarah too?" Bruce ear's perked.
"Yeah," Jim breathed, "She went to check on the clean up after a break in at a sex shop."
"Gotham's Fetish?" Bruce asked.
"Yeah," Jim sighed, "Something like that."
"What?" Dick asked.
"Pam visited there last night before meeting up with Rhino, and after her run in with the latex Batgirl," Bruce brought them up to speed, "They are the clowns that make the sex suits of us."
"Soooo," Barbara filled in the gaps, "Sarah goes to oversee the investigation, the infected latex is everywhere, she gets an outfit and goes back to see dad? Now all the cops from the investigation and anyone the encounter is also affected, including you
dad?"
"I had hoped that you were spared," Jim looked down, "But when I heard about the latex Batgirl in the morning briefing I didn't know what to make of it."
