Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
we wear tights
Unless we go with the freshly-waxed look; viz. Robin costumes 1 and 2.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So the Robin 1 and 2 costumes were worn while the wearer was old enough to need to wax? Very wrong.
Suddenly I want to see the older kid from Summerland as Robin. I don't know if it's because I'm sick and it has something to do with his depilation. Hope not.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
So the Robin 1 and 2 costumes were worn while the wearer was old enough to need to wax? Very wrong.
We're pretty certain Dick STILL waxes.

When he isn't living on a fire escape and can get to the salon, anyway.

As Dick said, rule number one, we don't kill.
Altough, back in the earliest days of Batman, he wasn't averse to dropping villians off of fatal heights, into vats of acid, or forcing them to fall on their own blades.
While I'm trying very hard not to get sucked back in as a regular reader (time, $$$, and an-obsessive-tendency-towards-completism issues), I wallowing in the Bat-love around here. I became a fan because I liked re-runs of the silly show as a kid (yes, I'll admit it), but Bats became my favorite because his original debut story was the darkest comic I'd ever read up to that point, followed closely by the first appearence of the Joker. For years it was the darkest, outside of horror comics.

I'm back -- the phone call I was expecting at 1 didn't come.
What would Bats think about the Slayer/Killer thing?
I mean -- supposing vampires were to infest Gotham? (I had this thought this morning -- of Bats coming upon a Slayer dusting a vamp -- what would he think about that?)

There's a few elseworlds on that topic. They're incredibly sturm and drang and over the top, though. The Batman in them is suffering from toxic nobility, and that's not the Bats I enjoy.
