Damian had recently taken to feed the very strange green wispy animal.

The strangest thing of this? Damian was pretty sure, despite the changes in race, it was always the same one.

Dick, who had seen the exchange from his window after sleeping over, got his phone and called beast boy in a panic.

ho I can see several ways to write this:

recovery

Dani is injured and had to take a smaller form to preserve and hide herself

She decides to go steal unsupervised food from a rich man who probably won't realize it

She steals food from Wayne Manor

Damian finds her and captures her, but while Dani panics then calms down because he is only arguing with her for not respecting a diet adapted to her species while preparing her a suitable bowl

She eats it perplexed and then gets served again until she is full.

Finally Damian reluctantly releases her

The next day dani is back in damian's room to ask for another good meal because, my gods it was yesterday >v<, she didn't realize that her sense of taste changed so much depending on the appearance she took! She therefore decides to test this while recovering, changing their appearance for bigger and bigger animals

Damian is not fooled, but swells his chest with pride at the confidence displayed by his visitor! He intends to help her recover and hopes to see her true form when she is 100% again (and doesn't tell anyone, because why do he? He already has things in hand)

ho I can see several ways to write this:

angs

Dani destabilizes and loses ecto little by little, fortunately slowly thanks to her new shape-shifting trick. She sent a blob ghost to warn Danny.

Now she has to “no more than” hold on …. so she hides herself

From Damian's point of view he sees a strange green animal that seems weak and takes it back to the mansion, more precisely hidden in the barn

Dani fled when she woke up but couldn't go far either

Damian finds her and takes care of her again

It starts again several times, dani continuing to lose little by little ectoplasmic mass and changes animal appearance to remain consistent and adapt to its new size

We can add a danny who is panicking looking for dani in gotham even

fluff:

Dani is curious about Robin/Damian and decides to follow him inconito like a good self-respecting ghost.

Buuuuut invibility is exhaustiiiing :(, more so than her new ability to take on the appearance of animals she's already seen/met >:).

Damian spots her and ends up approaching, Dani is not sure how the animal she is imitating would react and freezes in panic, Damian takes her home and taking care of her carefully and

hooo~

Dani LOVES being pampered, she has never experienced that and she immediately becomes addicted ~ <3 unfortunately she can't stay in animal form forever otherwise that would affect her way of thinking so she has to leave :( ….

and the next day she is back to be pampered again :3

Damian ends up connecting Dani in animal form with this girl his age who looks at him from afar as if he had picked up the stars and blushes an interesting shade of green

Damian decides she's (obviously) his girlfriend now (and of course tell no one about it)

The Smell of Home

Damian had noticed the new student in his school.

Not because he was new or how he looked

no, not any of the usual reasons someone would grab peoples attention.

Weirdly enough it was his scent, which was really weird. He usually didn't take notice of how people smell besides the usual just like anyone else.

But something about the smell that seemed to emanate from this new student who he had learned his name was Danny Fenton, just would not leave his mind.

He knew the smell but couldn't remember from where and it was just at the tip of his tongue, it was driving him crazy.

His family seemed to notice him become more irritable from usual.

But not around Fenton, he seemed to unconsciously calm down in his presence, which just made him suspicious and more irritated.

It wasn't until he woke up from a dream of memories from when he was little and still living with his mom that he realized what he was smelling.

The Lazarus Pits.

He grew up with that smell, it used to hang around the entire area and buildings.

He hadn't realized how long it had been since he had smelled it

He unconsciously related it to the smell of his childhood home.

But why would this random boy give off that very same odor?

Some investigating needed to be done.

~

Danny had noticed one of his classmates a boy he learned was called Damian seemed to act ...odd?

But only around him it seemed

With everyone else he was normal if a bit cold.

He would seem to relax an then suddenly tense up and send him a suspicious glare.

Also he was pretty sure that the boy seemed to be sniffing him?

Did he smell bad or something?

Why was he the only one who he seemed to act weird with.

Oh God, maybe he thought the smell of ecto was weird?

But that's not something he could control and most people never even seemed to notice the smell of ecto he produced since he became a halfa.

~

Damian glaring at Danny every time he realizes he's relaxed

Danny: "What did I do!?"

~

Batfam notices Damian being extra grouchy :" Ah, he's going through his rebellious phase"

~

Danny: "Did you just sniff mE!"

Damian: *scoff* "Don't be absurd"

~

Damian stealing Danny's clothes to analyze

Danny: " Who keeps taking my stuff?!"

Batfam: "Damian we know you're growing and experiencing new things, but stealing the things especially clothes from your crush is crossing boundaries"

Damian: "This is a misunderstanding, I don't have a crush on anyone!"

Bruce: "Son I think it's time I give you 'The Talk TM', I have an entire slideshow and docume-"

Damian: "This family is a nightmare!"

~

Just an Idea

But what if Damian finds traces of Lazarus in Danny's sweat?

dpxdc

The adopting thing but it is Damien demanding it.

So thing is Danny is in gotham say he is in foster system or maybe Vlad just sent him away because can’t deal with Danny and his own shit. One of those ‘should have thought about this more’ like how someone wants a dog soooo bad but then doesnr realize what all comes with it. Plus adding on kid has trauma from his family and friends blowing up right in front of him

Anyway Danny and Damien of course wont hit it off right away and there will come some fights where Damien comes to respect Daniel because he can hold his own and has no reaction to being stabbed with a dull pencil.

Anyway my main thought was Bruce has Diana and Clark over just to bitch talk about whats going on when in comes Damien and in his very Damien way demands his father for a little brother

lets just say Damien is some months older than Danny

Bruce was not expecting that like at all. He thought Damien would shout and demand no more adoptees in the manor

Diana and Clark smiling and with holding giggles.

Damien tho is very srs. All business

“Father I have taken the liberty of contacting the family lawyer and have him processing the paper work as we speak. I know you must think this was just some frivolous demand but I assure you it is not. I will have my little brother. The meeting with the lawyer and the social worker will be scheduled for this week. Now excuse me father.”

“….what…what just happened?!” Clark watching Damien walk out.

Diana all amused smiled patting Bruce “Looks like our friend here is getting another kid.”

Consider, if you will:

Damian knows that he needs his siblings on board if this is going to work. Bruce may tell Damian "no," may even hold his ground. He'd done it before.

BUT--Bruce has never been able to hold his ground against all of the Batkids. So he prepares a presentation on why Danny Must Be Adopted Right Now Into the Family.

"He has a current lack of living family able to give him hugs, and is not prone to stabbing, so he will probably enjoy hugs, Richard."

"He has a love of chaos and mischief, and would have no problem helping with pranks, Brown."

"He can speak a multitude of languages, so he would always be able to communicate, Cain."

"He is also a meta, and I believe would have much in common with Thomas."

And, finally, "He has a bizarre idea that all life is sacred, and so is unlikely to attempt to murder Drake."

And then, having presented his findings and ideas, turns to his siblings for support in making sure that Danny gets adopted.

yes!! Need the others to back him up

Was gonna ask what about Jason but then thought he would be against Bruce adopting any kids till man learns to emote

That's pretty much why I didn't have a statement for Jason, lol.

Jason creates a whole powerpoint presentation on why Bruce shouldn’t adopt this traumatized kid.

Gets some nods of agreement

Damien wont back down though! He will have his little brother. Someone to take under his wing

Damian totally took note of the people who were agreeing with Jason. He has blackmail to plan for and obtain.

promotions fight between damian and jason? Which ends up in a family meal where a unconscious danny is invited?

good soup

Danny goes to school in Gotham.

How and why did this come to be, you ask?

Well, his parents decided realized that perhaps he needed a different type of school if they wanted his grades to raise, and what better school than the one in Gotham which students all come out with high grades?

So Danny had his bags packed, and was sent on his way with his uncle Vlad who, contrary to Danny's expectations, wasn't actually pleased at all with this arrangement. It took Maddie having to convince Vlad for him to even agree to helping Danny settle in and watch over him when he's studying in Gotham.

Which is unusual because he should've been the first one to suggest it.

So, Danny ripped away from his life and friends has decided to do one thing when he gets to that school.

Become known as the sassy rich kid who throws money around like it's water.

And, well, you know.

Vlad's wealth gives him the means to do exactly that but with a condition, he can do whatever he wants and Vlad would back him up for it but whatever Danny does.

He must not interact with Damian Wayne.

Easy and kinda hard because one, he doesn't know who that is and two, when he does figure it out, he can just avoid the guy.

Danny fails to realize the guy he fist fights behind the school now is Damian Wayne.

Danny became Damian’s best friend, all the while still thinking he’s doing a great job.

They're sitting and Danny starts talking about Vlad. "Yeah. He's annoying and really weird. I do get to do anything I want with his money. Well, as long as I stay away from someone named Damian Wayne. No idea who that is tho."

Damian just squinting at Danny wondering if he has been living under a rock or is just stupid.

Ah yes, Danny and his scrappy friend "Tt," so named for his strange refusal to give his name (Damian thought he was trying to annoy him when he asked his name because who in Gotham wouldn't recognize a Wayne)

Danny: I'm gonna get a good grade in avoiding Damian Wayne, something that is normal to want and possible to achieve

"Tt": ...yes

Ngl? Damian probably LOVES his INCREDIBLY Stupid Yet Genius Fighting Partner? He's just? So, so stupid. So dumb. Like an orange cat or a golden retriever. Very loyal and SITUATIONALY brilliant, but socially? Apparently raised under a trash can in the middle of nowhere, probably fighting racoons for survival.

He bites.

Will eat basicly anything.

Pack bonded with Jon on sight and will take Damian's word that his enemies are not to be trusted.

He's PERFECT. No, you don't understand Father. Danny, (NOT Daniel, he has a preference) is not only a perfect part of Damians society mask, he is also? Genuinely pleasant to be around. If anything happens to him, Damian is going to burn the school down. Jon's agreed to help.

now I can only imagine damian handing a molotof cocktail to jon without looking at it or turning around who lights it with a little laser glance then throws it, all without even looking at his target and in one fluid movement.

You know a job parents everywhere are always in need of? Babysitters. You know who did pretty good (ish) job on his parenting assignment, can be anywhere in the country in a matter of minutes, and is desperately wanting the new Doomed game? Daniel Fenton. You know who starts using this most excellent service the most? Superhero parents.

Danny: of course Mister Batman Sir, I an stop him from sneaking out and patrolling for you.

Batman: hmmn. Robin: Father, I do not need a babysitter. I can join you on this mission. Batman: mmm. Danny: I don't know what that grunt means but my prices are 8 dollars an hour and an additional 10 dollars per escape attempt and if he attempts to harm me- Robin: Tt. I would not attempt, I would succeed. Danny: ahem. If he attempts to harm me then I'll add another 3 to 15 dollars based on the severity of the attack. Batman: What would constitute the 15 dollars?

Danny: Trying to skin me and mount me on a wall, trying to dissect me or trying to rip me apart molecule from molecule. Batman: It is worrying that you would only charge 15 dollars.

Danny doesn't hear the "only" : I mean, I can do 10?

Batman:....give me an itemized account detailing the acts and you'll be paid accordingly

Danny, mentally freaking out: ok

Batman thinking - I'm going to pay him well. $15? He should get at least $300. Thats fair right? :) : hnnn

Danny: $300 for only one stabbing attempt? this guy clearly gave me too much money. i need to return it to keep my reputation as an honorable babysitter.

Batman: Oh he must've felt like he didn't deserve the money. Eh I'll sneak it back into his bag next time.

thus begins the back and forth of them giving each other copious amounts of money without talking to each other about it.

You know who else hires Danny? Superman. He needs Jon to stay home sometimes, especially when there is a Big Threat on the loose or Lex is up to his usual tricks. He does not want his son to have to deal with Kryptonite Poisoning at such a young age.

Danny: Okay Mr Superman, we're all good. I usually charge $8 an Hour, with an additional $10 per escape attempt, and $15 for attempted attacks. But your son seems well mannered, so I'll lower it to 5 per escape attempt and 20 per attempted attack.

Clark: Oh no, I could never ask that of you. In fact I feel like this is a very low amount for the service you are providing me. I'll make it 13 an hour, with 15 and 20 for the other 2 stipulations.

Danny: Oh no I must insist sit. My Prices are set, and I cannot in good conscience ask you to change them.

Clark: But you aren't asking me, think of this as a courtesy.

Danny: I'm sorry Sir, but I simply must insist.

Basically you put 2 Well Mannered Country Boys up against eachother in a Humbleness Competition. Neither of them is willing to "inconvenience" the other, and will not back down in being more neighborly.

While Clark and Danny argue, Jon makes his first escape attempt under the telephone encouragement of Damian, still salty about having failed to escape last week.

DPXDC Prompt: Good Grade in Family

The Wayne's are being haunted by a ghost. They weren't sure at first but over time they became certain someone was following them both in costume and out. When nothing they do seems to work, they consult a magic user of the Justice League to assist them (dealer's choice). However, once the magic user investigates, they are able to tell that it is the ghost of a blood relative (how? magic~). Casting a spell forces the ghost to appear to a human's vision. It's a teenaged boy with white hair and green eyes, and he looks positively terrified to be caught.

AKA after a mishap with a reveal gone wrong, Danny discovers that his blood family is very much alive and has a big adopted family. Traumatized from the bad reveal and not wanting a repeat, he decides to essentially stalk his new family to get to know them first in hopes to become a brother they won't reject. He swears he's going to get a good grade in family this time. A thing both normal to want and possible to achieve.

Hmm, I feel like this would do well in a Twin Tim AU.

Just for the feels of both Drake boys trying desperately to be "worth keeping around".

Double down on neglect feels yasss

How did it start? Because Janet is a busy Lady and has no time to be pregnant. They want a kid tho because societal or family pressures, so getting a surrogate seems likely.

Was Maddie the surrogate? Might have needed the money to help get the ball rolling for the weapon patents/ tech patents. She can't work in the lab yet anyway because Jazz is too small to be left alone, and the extra income helps.

You know they inject multiple fertilized eggs for the chance of one taking right? What if two took instead but Jack and Janet only wanted the one. New deal for the surrogate! She keeps the second twin. Maddie is like sure! New baby! A little brother for her little girl.

Are Tim and Danny identical or fraternal? Is Tim weirded out seeing a sort of photo negative of himself floating there? DID TIM KNOW ABOUT DANNY??? Like as a fact that he had a twin? Was the fact that he was a twin used a joke/disparaging remark by Janet or Jack? Like "Maybe the other one would have been better behaved" Maybe Janet and Jack just acted that Danny was a lost twin?? Like a still born to cover the adoption up???

IS Tim thinking "Thats my dead twin floating there.... Fuck"

Well, Danny obviously knows about Tim somehow, having sought him out as his last blood relative. Could be Fentons had always been open about Danny's origins. Or they had at least told them at some point. Possibly even talked about it while they had him strapped to an autopsy table (not told him in this version because they wouldn't have been talking to him, just about him).

Or maybe he had to learn from a ghost. A ghost that passed through Gotham (or even Ellie) and noticed Danny's doppelganger, or Clockwork giving Danny a tip on where to go when he got away from the Fentons. There are just a lot of little ways Danny might know about Tim. But the fact stands, he obviously does know, because he sought Tim out. So Danny already had his time to react to having a twin (I'm thinking identical for reasons that will become clear in the next bit); the exact nature of that reaction dependent on how exactly he was told. What Danny is reacting to at this moment is the getting caught before he was ready.

As for Tim. If he grew up tangentially aware that he had a "lost" twin - with Jack and Janet using said lost twin to disparage Tim any time he didn't meet expectations - and the loss was implied to have been the twin was stillborn or did not survive long after birth; Tim probably wouldn't jump to "that's my dead twin". Because he would expect his dead twin to be frozen in infancy. Even having been told this was a 'blood relative' it would be far more logical to look at the identical, color swapped, dead version of himself and think; "Fuck, is that a dead clone?" Especially with the obvious Lazarus Waters connection.

Given their prior experience with LoA Damian clones, it's only natural for the Batfam to immediately be on the defensive in this situation. It is to be expected that a clone made by Ra's, even one that clearly failed and died, would be programmed to be aggressive and probably kill his progenitor.

Danny does not have that context.

Danny can only perceive their sudden battle stances as rejection.

Danny can only mumble out an apology and flee.

Not that he goes very far. Just far enough to hide for a while. Maybe have himself a good silent panic attack and emotional breakdown. But he'll be back later. After the spell wears off. His core has latched on to his Tim's family. He needs to protect them. He needs to protect Tim. Even though they don't want him, he can't just leave. He needs to make sure they're safe.

Is Damian trying to send the ghost of Tim's clone to the island where he is seeing his own clones? taking advantage of most of the rest of his family being distracted by preventing another clone attack from his grandfather?

danny: a whole secret island of clone children younger than me? without any adults? I have to check that they are okay!

Danny finds himself surrounded by dozens of little brothers far from Gotham at the moment when Tim (and the rest of the Batfam) realizes that he is wrong. There is no sign of cloning (and no mass cloning) on the part of Ra's (although there are plans to do so. Batfam discovers and recovers the missing spleen)

Tim finds himself lost and then horrified, his dead twin brother had come to him, his last living family and ... he rejected him!

He tries to call the ghost

without success.

It ends with Alfred who again gives a coffee enriched with sleeping pills because Tim remains glued to the bat computer to discover as much as possible about his twins

Excuse me??? Clone island???

@lolottes is this Canon? How have I never heard about it before!

So I read it somewhere, but I can't find it :( so I'm not sure...

It's canon that Damian has an island where he does rehabilitation for "people like him" on the other hand…

so sorry if I was wrong and said stupid things and misled you :(

DPxDC Prompt where when Damian has grown comfortable with the Waynes, settling into the household more firmly, he finally tells them about his late brother, Danyal.

With his family's help, he makes a proper grave for his twin on the Wayne Manor grounds, on a little hill with the best view of the night sky.

Hundreds of miles away in Amity Park, Illinois, Danny's core resonates, recognizing something he's lacked.

One day, when Danny is grievously hurt or terrified beyond reason or exhausted to the edge of collapse or perhaps even all of the above

He follows that resonating feeling in his core. Instinct driven, to far beyond his limit to even notice his surroundings; he finds that peaceful place to rest, hide, retreat.

That is where Damian finds him one early morning, sleeping in the snow in jeans and a t-shirt, but somehow miraculously alive.

Damian, kicking open the door to the Manor, carrying his Supposed To Be Dead Brother bridal style like he's some fainting Victorian waif: "TODD! Is your freakishness contagious or is Gotham soil just prone to reanimating the dead??! We will have to investigate this! Also, Father, congratulations. It is a boy."

The rest of the Bats, just trying to eat their fuckin waffles: ( O.O) (O.O )

It's especially confusing because Danyal wasn't even buried there. They didn't have his body to bury him there. The grave was symbolic, a memorial, a cenotaph.

If Danyal did somehow catch Todd's or Gotham's weirdness, why did he resurrect there? As opposed to wherever Mother had left his body or even where he had actually died? Why at (not in, at, thankfully) a grave erected years after he died at a house he'd not lived to learn his connection to on a continent he'd never even been to?

There is much to investigate indeed. But for the moment, Danyal is alive. Injured, freezing to the touch, with dangerously low heart and respiration rates. But indubitably alive.

Danny will wake up in the infirmary, a very sterile room with lots of medical tools available but none to wear, devices connected to him and strangers talking about his abnormal readings

Suffice to say that he opens his eyes in panic and quickly scans the room while starting to get up then freezes when seeing Damian

From the batfam's point of view the new brother's heart rate briefly returned to normal then he opened his bright green eyes in a slightly different way than Todd when he had a seizure starting to try to get up and reaching out his hands towards the board has an emergency scalp (or other improvised weapon) but immediately freezes and calms down upon seeing Damian (Danny's eyes turning a non-shiny shade of blue)

So he supposes that he has a baby assassin like Damian who has arrived but who also has the madness of pits like Jason. They are already preparing for the test.

Suffice to say that they will not be ready for danny teen with attitude, sacastic and lover of puns but clearly traumatizing and hiding him as best as he can just like the signs that he is a meta in a way or another (bruce and talia don't have the latest meta gene)

You know what Damian deserves?

A Grand Chunibyo Epic Drama Romance of his very own. Something to REALLY make his parents wince and take a good, long look in the mirror. Because... YEP. Yep that's definitely Their Son all right.

They suddenly feel like they should apologize to several long suffering individuals.

Just?

Damian needs to meet a Fellow Dramatic, Too Serious, Feral Gremlin, "I AM The Heir Apparent! My Blood Is Mighty And My Heritage Noble!" Little NERD? Someone who matchs him, beat for beat, with all the flamboyant Stabby Drama and rooftop dramatic chase scenes of his parents but now?

With Ghost Powers!

Because she is a PRINCESS. In search of someone Worthy(tm) of her Hand(tm). Not because her DAD told her too, obviously, no no. She overheard some of the Ancients talking about how that's how THEY got married. And knows that princesses usually get spouses chosen for them. So SHES gonna chose!

Perfect plan.

And who BETTER? Then the Blood Son of... THE BAT*dramatic musical sting*! Prove yourself, Robin! *lunges with a blade!*

Obviously, love at first dramaticly back-lit monologs followed by sword fight and dramatic escape. She's a formidable opponent.

But? Who IS she? This dramatic Chunibyo WEEB of a child? She! Is Danny's SECOND Clone Daughter. It was discovered? The only way to truely, PERMANENTLY, stabilize Dani? Was to get cells from a stable Clone.

Meaning one that WASNT rapidly aged.

Danny was... conflicted. He was against creating a kid JUST for giving medical aid to his other kid. But? He WASN'T so against the idea of having a kid? Like... a baby. Doing Dad Stuff. Cause... cause he wasn't 14 anymore. He's just graduated college. Has a stable job.

Dani suggested they go for it. But only if they were sure it wouldn't hurt the kiddo.

And it didnt!

She was and is PERFECT. The light of their lives. A delightfully ghost raised little Stabby Feral Honey Badger Gremlin of a young lady! But she's ALSO? Missing! And Danny, king of the Infinte Realms, is Losing His SHIT.

WHERE IS HIS BABY!?

Dramaticly martial arts fighting in the rain, DUH dad! She has to defeat the boy she likes, drop a symbolic gift at his feet, then leave with a cryptic but Cool And Meaningful Statement! You wouldn't GET IT, you're so OLD!

Dick blames Bruce for this. You see this? Do you Bruce? This is YOUR genetics at play! You added AL GHUL DRAMA to your nonsense and now he's discovered dating!! Look at him! He's pining! Dramaticly training in early hours! He's gotten JON involved!

Just? Let JLA Dark have FUN for once. Let them see THE princess of basicly EVERYTHING... harrasing Batman... by trying to date his obviously willing son... and just go "Read at 12:37" sorry Bruce! Looks like they're out of the office! Doing.... uuuuh.... MAGIC STUFF *sounds of popcorn being popped* YEP! Maaaagic! He he he >:D

@lolottes @ailithnight @nerdpoe @hdgnj @hypewinter @mutable-manifestation

What are we going to name this new clone child? I suggest that Dani remains Dani and that the new one decides to be called Elle, for the potential Chao :')

Jon encourages the young couple 100% and even borrowed Tim's camera under the advice of Kon (the camera on his phone doesn't work) to make a personalized photo album (grandma Kent helps him)

Elle and Damian are 100% into it and pose while denying posing dramatically for the half-kryptonient who is trying to be discreet

Dani is the one who listens to her little sister describe her dramatic encounters with her new suitor and helps her practice her dramatic speeches (she wants to be sure he's PERFECT~) Of course neither of them has told their father about it, who learns this after the fact accomplished

Dick is mad at Bruce. Jason rolls his eyes but is secretly jealous. Cass finds them adorable and coos next to Steph. Duke is just happy that the two don't do this during these patrol schedules. Barbara tries to convince Damian to move back his romantic dates so that the interference from the ghost side of his beauty does not have an impact on her ability to monitor the city.

But Tim? he is in confusion, he is afraid that the new cuple will try the trick of a single heir or something similar, Kon is the one who tries to reassure him with some "bad" photos taken by his brother. After all Tim always feels better with blackmail :} (Kon is such a good “friend”)

Bruce tries to ask the JLD for information on the origins of his possibly daughter by laws (no, Damian is still much too young) Damian "friend". JLD laughs at him because Danny is one of their good summoning customers and it is beyond question that they are alienating him for the beautiful eyes of the big bat.

Talia finds out late and immediately goes to argue with Bruce because: how dare he hide his son's course with a dimensional princess!!! She demands a full report of all their interactions and examine this princess's court gifts and info on the court gifts that bruce has already helped damian give! How did that not help Damian choose appropriate court gifts!! shame on you! She's going to have to kidnap her son to make up for it and you better not stop her this time!

Vlad Masters has died.

Or at the very least, that is what the upper class was lead to believe. Could you blame them? His death was wildly convincing, and the thing was.

No one knew who would inherit Vladco and his fortune.

As far as they knew, Masters never had any heirs to speak of at all. Not even an illegitimate child, or a foster care. He doesn't even have relatives that the fortune and company could go to.

So, safe to say, they were quite looking forwards to what would happen to the company. Would it sink, or stay afloat?

Now, normally, Damian wouldn't have cared a single bit about what would happen. But seeing as he is forced to go to an event held at the very dead Vlad Masters' mansion, he thinks he should have the right to see what'll happen.

The company's various stockholders were all gathered together, as well as Lex Luthor and other rich upper-class individuals. He knows that Vlad and Lex didn't like each other very well, so he thinks that Lex Luthor may or may not be backing the biggest current stockholder so that he'll have a say in the man's company when they take over.

Honestly, the event was pretty boring. He thought there would be... more, happening. Considering the context of this event.

So, he leaves. He's really just exploring to stave off his boredom, but if he found Vlad Masters' secrets before his death, well. Might as well, really.

He comes upon a room filled wall to wall with merchandise that screamed Masters was a packers fan before his death. Quite the large one at that as well. He picked up one item just to take a look at it, it wasn't something he was too interested in, but it was sort of impressive.

He turned when he heard the door open behind him, and saw a girl that was probably around his age staring at him with concern.

The thing is, she wasn't dressed like a guest. Or even a maid. She was dressed like a poor person.

So obviously he thought she was breaking in to find things to steal and sell off.

"I'm telling dad you tried stealing his packers merch." And with that, the girl was off, and Damian found himself running after her.

Why?

Boredom.

But also, father? He genuinely considers who she was talking about, clearly it couldn't have been anyone participating in the event, so was he also another thief that wanted to steal from Masters?

What sort of thief reveals they have another roaming around where they're stealing from? And their blood relation at that?

He realized that they were running towards where all the guests were gathered, and Damian thought that this girl was either lost, or genuinely didn't know what she was doing.

"Dad! Some kid is trying to steal your merchandise!" Said the girl, slamming open the doors and causing the attention of everyone present to fall directly on her as she paused.

Damian couldn't see it, but he thinks she's quite stupefied in that moment, paused on her pause. It was completely, and utterly quiet for a moment as the guests stared at her, and she stared back.

However, the next moment. The very detailed coffin laying in the center of the room suddenly swung itself open with a great pillar of green fire that reached the ceiling, causing his attention to switch over to it.

He saw lines on the floor around the coffin, lines that he previously ignored as some kind of design choice.

Lines that were filled with a liquid none to dissimilar to Lazarous Water.

A hand reached out of the coffin. "WHO DARES TO TOUCH MY PRECIOUS MERCHANDISE!?" And from beyond the grave the previously dead now arisen body of Vlad Masters pulled himself out of his own coffin, with inhumane red eyes.

So. Damian came to two conclusions that night.

One, Vlad Masters may or may not have had ties with the League of Assassins in some way, leading to his now ressurection.

Two, Vlad Masters has a daughter that was extremely well hidden from basically everyone present at the gathering and, maybe even the world at large.

Oh gods. I love this. 😂

Let's add the fact that the funeral was a cover for some medical problem on the ghost side and that would cause him to be in a coma for too many years…

the best for Vlad, a funeral and make him pass for dead, then, when he wakes up, they would legally revive him…

What they didn't expect was Damian's "theft" and the fact that the fury of such theft would end up curing Vlad.

love for his favorite club healed him, or indignance at the idea of being robbed? :')

Dc x dp idea 130

De aged toddler Danny is sent to dc. Wants absolutely nothing to do with heros or the government.

Back home they killed his family and cut him open for experiments. It was his rouges who helped him. They rescued him. Sure in order to stabilize him he was deages. But he wasn’t still there.

Danny avoids all hero and government officials in this dimension. Instead toddler Danny just goes to villains. If they are too murdery he pranks them. Ivy and Catwomen are his favorites! He helps them!!!

Tiny toddler in a mini rogue suit? Too cute. Especially as it's definitely babies first villain outift. Catwoman and Ivy helped him pick it out! So it's basically a reinforced cat onesie, with a jacket over the top with flowers on it.

The Batfam are losing their minds. Why can they not catch a literal toddler! What the hell! What kind of toddler distrusts heroes this much! What happened to the baby! (Selina quietly tells Bruce some of his history. And wow. Ok. They get it. Who and where. There are some people who need to be behind bars now!)

Danny is having the best time robbing assholes. And uploading all the proof of politicians wrongdoing. Look, they left the proof lying around. And rather than blackmail them. He's gonna shame them. It's fun! He's also been helping Ivy destroy companies that cause pollution. She reminds him of Sam.

Hanging out with Harley reminds him of Jazz so it takes him a while. He misses her the most, it took him a while to really truly understand how much she did for him over the years and something about Harley has triggered something about it.

like, on the surface Harley and Jazz have nothing in common, but the way they are always open about their feelings and telling people about theirs (no matter that Jazz was clinical and soft about it, and Harley is loud and so jersey about it, its the same at its core)

So it takes him a while. but he loves the rogue women trio and hes having a great time. Theyre all really nice, and Harley gave him a big hammer like hers (toddler sized, but it's big to him) and his rogue costume keeps him warm and its surprisingly soft.

Even though Ivy makes him eat his veggies they keep him fed and give him a curfew--and his misses his parents too but they didn't know he'd just barely opened up before they killed them, and even though they loved him they never really watched him (Jazz picked up the pieces there).

He just wants to help and since the heroes never helped, and the law never helped, he can do it the Rogue way. and the Rogue way is rough and a little careless, but it helps and he's gonna help!

(plus its fun jumping around and playing hide and go seek/tag dodging the bats. he likes seeing how many blind spots he can find on the cameras, which roofs are the best to jump to and from, which gargoyles are good hiding spots!)

Danny couldn't help but giggle as he snuck through the museum. The director had been doing some..... Underhanded deals. And fucking over a lot of people. Danny was going to get the proof. And steal the main show piece. It was taken from a tomb anyway. And the ghost attached to it was so sad! They just wanted to go home! But they were stuck in this stuffy museum! So Danny was gonna help!

The fact that he knew no one would know how he managed this? Due to all the security? Just made it more fun! And! The Bats hadn't even realised what he was up to yet! Even Catwoman didn't know about his plans. This one was all him. He was going to enjoy this one! Especially with his plans! He was gonna take a selfie with it before he took it. And then post it tomorrow. So everyone knew it was him.

Look, Danny had to get his fun from something. And driving the heroes up the wall? Made him immensely happy. Batman was stumped by him. Batman! The man of many plans. Was being defeated by a toddler! And ok sure, he wasn't really a toddler. But semantics! This was gonna be great!

When Harley finds out she rushes over to tell Ivy, who had Danny for the weekend (Her and Selina switch off, mostly, or stay at a shared complex with Harley but Selina had a Job this weekend). She's excited and squealing about baby's first heist!

He'd done some general chaos and information diving/exposé' projects, but being a toddler new to a dimension he wasn't familiar with severely limited what he could do.

Ive and Selina throw him a little birthday party, and frame the selfie on the mantle.

Batman is severely confused, and Red Robin is desperately trying to figure out how. HOw did as toddler manage this????

Meanwhile, Robin is like. "Tt. they deserve it. The articles in the exhibit were unjustly acquired." etcetcetc.

Red Hood and Spoiler are laughing their asses off and Cass is silently approving.

Signal is just in Awe. Like. That baby is so flippin cute. Also, is it just him, or does he glow a little bit??

They all agree the photo set Selina sent them (like, almost like those school photos in wallet size) of the selfie and the pictures from the party were all freaking adorable though. They all have one in their wallets now.

Danny of course heard about this and is not pleased! He isn't meant to be cute! Not to the heroes! How dare! He is a menace! A rogue! A problem! Cleary he needs to be more of an issue. He will not be through of as cute! Nope! He refuses! The Sirens are allowed. No one else!

This is what starts the first crime spree. Everything from kneecapping assholes to arson. Baby is on a roll! Th batfam are scrambling to try and control the tiny menace. It does not help that Harley has equipped him with a tiny toy car. Sure it only works cause he uses his powers. But they look on Batman's face? Worth the cringe. At last she painted it black and red.

How funny would it be if his crime spree included stealing from the manor. Just something stupid cause he couldn’t find any dirt on the Wayne’s.

The only interesting thing was that dick used to be a cop and screw that. Cops suck. So clearly the family was a fruit-loop family.

So like he steals Alfred’s cookies or something silly like that. He deserves a treat after pranking lexs office and stealing his green candy.

Just chaos from this toddler getting past the manors security while completely undetected until after the crime was committed.

It would also be funny if the bats are assuming Danny knows they are the bats. Danny doesn’t. Cat mom did not tell him who the bats were. Plus he doesn’t care.

He has crimes to commit and a car to run through the heros should they make an appearance. He will be the best menace to society!

Danny was prepared! He packed his new camera as well! Catwoman got him a polaroid! So he could taunt his victims! This was going to be fun! His next target? Was all the rich in Gotham! Then he would go after Luthor. And the richest person in Gotham? Wayne! He HAD to have something wrong! And he was going to find it!

*2 hours later*

Ok... Finding out that Bruce Wayne really was just THAT nice.. And sadly born to rich parents? Well.. Suppose he can't help that. Still! He had a point to prove! No one is safe! Just cause he's a well intentioned himbo doesn't mean Danny won't use him to prove a point!

But also... He was generally doing as much as he could, with what little brains he had, the help Gotham. So he would take anything important. And those cookies smelled so good. So the cookies it was. He took the selfie with the cookies. And then write a little card.

Then he was off to his next target! He found out about this group with owl pins? And they were super gross! And they were hurting the owl revenants! So he was gonna steal so their money! And their undead! And the proof! And he was gonna send the Talon guys to Frostbite. They needed lots of help. So he was gonna!

------

After patrol ended and the bats got to the manor. They could hear Alfred puttering about in the kitchen. Baking by the sounds of it. Which was... Unusual. Alfred never needed more time. They shared a confused look and went to find out what was wrong. To find a plate covered in cookie crumbs. With a small picture and note on it.

Alfred: Welcome home. While you were out a most daring thief performed a heist. I'm sure you will find the evidence as intriguing as I did.

Tim:.... None of the alarms tripped?

Jason:.... You gotta read the note guys. This is hilarious!

Dick:: He left us a picture of the cookies! That's so cruel! Look how proud he look though!

Bruce: He snuck past even you?

Alfred: Indeed he did Master Bruce. I left for less than 5 minutes.

ALFRED IS A LAIR, danny did not sneak past him, alfred let him have the cookies becuase he was too cute!:)

Alfred would never! Had he be aware he would have made the dear boy eat something healthy as well. And given him a nice glass of juice! The audacity to say Alfred would not ensure a well balanced meal! The very idea!

Danny of course is now off to ruin Lex Luthor's day. The man is shady AF. He does not approve! Ohh! Is that Ecto candy! Bleh. Not the good stuff. Too much grief. It'll do as a boost. But not tasty. He's just gonna phase of into his stomach thanks. Bleh. Grief! Really people!

Ohh!!!! He made a clone! Let's make sure he got out! Ope! He's with heroes now. Fair enough. He can make sure they are treating him right. For now? He has shady business deals I uncover and important components to steal!

Ohh!!! Lex made a clone baby with Superman. Now isn’t that interesting 😈

…

Kon: Why are #Superboy, #Luthor <3 Superman and #MPreg? trending?

Danny at home with the sirens. Sits back and watched the media frenzy. He's feeling pretty smug right about now. He's gonna release the fact that Luthor isn't even paying child support later. That will REALLY stir the pot.

Selina, Harley and Pam? Are also laughing watching this. Their little chaos kitten has just given them endless entertainment.. Superman looks so conflicted. So annoyed. Truly, the gift that keeps on giving!

---

Kon? Not having the best day. Like, it's funny. But he also didn't want his origin story aired you know.... Apparently Tim knows who did this. But.... Won't tell him. Tim! Why not! He deserves to arrest the bastard himself! Right!

I feel even toddler Danny would feel a tad guilty. Not for outing Superman or Lex. No they get outed. That’s the good stuff.

But about kon.

Danny might feel just a tad bit bad as superboy is getting massive amount of media. Just cause Ellie enjoyed that type of chaos not all clones were the same.

So he apologizes specifically to superboy and hands him backpay child support. Danny really didn’t need to say superboy was the clone. Lex really shouldn’t of held off for so long. Danny still need to rob some more from him. He was awful!

Maybe steal some more of the candy. Lex seemed to really hate when he took it. So that was perfect!!!

He’d plan that heist later. For now he had to go fill his toy car with owl revenants. He had to be sure to let a bat see him!! He loves watching them squirm. He’d have plenty of chances as he brings them load by load to frostbite for treatment!!!

Kon wakes up the next day to a crate full of cash. And a card full of childish scrawl. 'I'm sorry for outing you Mr Superboy!! I stole lots of money from Luthor! Here's child support!'. And rings Tim immediately.

Kon: Tim. Tim. The thief who outed me. Please tell me they aren't a literal child.

Tim:... I can only do that if I lie. How'd you find out?

Kon: Well. I woke up to a literal crate of money at the end of my bed. With a sorry card.

Tim:... Yeah that track. He pulled off a heist at the manor and stole Alfred's cookies....

-----

None of the bats know what to do watching the child drive past with a load of Talons sitting on the roof of his toy car... Oh no.... What the fuck???

Danny was very pleased with his chaos!! The bats saw him with the owls!!! The look on their face was the best. He never realized how big eyes could get. Especially from nightwing.

They never managed to question him either!!! He drove right through a wall. He hears the thud!!! One of the bags slammed into the wall in chase of him.

Best “heist” yet.

Danny had one very big “heist” planned. His moms agreed red hood would be down to help. Apparently the bats liked to bug the poor crime lord.

And red hood was stinking up Gotham so bad that Danny needed to do something.

As far as the bats would know. He kidnapped the red hood like he dead the owl revenants!!!

Danny needed to go see frostbite himself. So he can bring red hood (with consent) to deal with his yucky ecto.

Then for a couple days stay in the realm. All while the bats freak out! Luthor will see all his candy gone!!!! Frostbite and the other yetis like the more grief candy then him. Plus!!! He had a whole expose on how Superman treated his clone at first.

Let the public revolt!!!

Jason stared at the tiny new rogue who was driving the bats up the wall. And processed what he had just been told.

Jason: So. You are also undead. I am a revenant or halfa like you. You want to 'kidnap' me to help me get checked out at the ghost docs. To break out the Bat and his colony?

Danny tilted his head to the side and nodded.

Danny: Yup! So, you down or am I gonna have to ACTUALLY drag your ass to the doctors?

Jason: Fuck it why not. Make sure to film their reactions though. I want to see the look on their faces.

-----

Kon and Tim are cuddled up on the sofa watching the news lose its shit over his origins. Tim already counted the money handed to Kon. And well, it would set his boyfriend up for life.

Kon: I know I should tell the news he's gotten better.

Tim: it this is objectively hilarious? And you want to let them go feral for just a little longer?

Kon: Yeah. So. Baby rogue huh?

Tim: Goddamn baby rogue. He's like... 6 at a push.

Kon: Damn. What the fuck happened to him?

Danny to ensure the bats new he meant business. Used his polaoraid camera to take a picture of red hood in his toy car (don’t ask how he fit)

Proof he kidnapped red hood. Red hood most certainly wasn’t holding back laughter in the photo. Not at all.

His demand for Jason return was simple. Too bad he tore that part of the photo ransom completely on accident. Definitely not to see the reaction from the video livestream cat mom promised to record for them.

—

While the bats are in a panic trying to find the missing part of the ransom photo. They still didn’t know what happened to the talons. They hadn’t been returned!?! Where was Jason!!!

Superboy did eventually say he wasn’t that bad anymore. But made sure to say lex was just as bad if not worse.

The toddler rouge already outed lex and his lack of child support. Conner might as well get something more out of it. More bad press on lex. He deserved the treat.

Jason and Danny spend a week in the Far Frozen. Just chilling out. Drinking Ecto smoothies. Checking in on the rescued Talons. Giving Jason a crash course on being undead. The good stuff. Jason finally gets the full story. And yeah, he completely gets it. He is 100% down to help Danny Fuck with any hero he wants. Even Aunt Diana.

When they get back to Gotham? Jason heads back to the manor with his health report. Alfie needs to know the truth at least. Plus, he has new and interesting nutritional requirements. And healing is gonna be different now he's a healthy revenant.

Alfred just kind of pins with a stare as Jason grins mischievously. Then reads through the report and nods. Well at least the 'kidnapping' was good for him. However...

Alfred: No cookies for two weeks. Next time send me a message before hand Master Jason.

Jason:.... That's fair. Sorry Alfie. Kids.... Got good reason to distrust heroes and people in power. He's trusted me with a lot. So. I'm probably gonna end up kidnapped a lot.

Alfred: And he has chosen a good man to trust. I'm glad he is at least safe enough.

Jason:.... He doesn't care about his own safety Alf. He lost everything. I think he chose me. Cause well. Hard to kill the undead you know?

Alfred: I understand. This shall be kept from Master Bruce I told the young one reveals it himself. Now! Where was the other half of the random demand?

Jason:.... He ate it.

Alfred: Oh dear. Well. At least they have had a good distraction. You will be staying for dinner.

Alfred quickly took a photo of Jason stops in the kitchen and sent it to the group chat. Which of course became very lively all of a sudden. It was the best way to ensure they returned home in a timely fashion.

-----

The press eat up the fact that Superboy is finally speaking about it. And his complaints about Luthor constantly trying to control him? Oh, Lex is facing a PR nightmare.

Exactly, especially since doesn’t have the knowledge we do on any of the characters aside from what’s public knowledge and what he’s been told. He has no reason to trust any of the heroes since at best they are naive idealists who don’t know what the world is actually like, and at worst they could be as corrupt as the villains they fight.

And even if the sirens and a few others have vouched for the bats he knows that people can be really good at hiding who they actually are (read all the GIW anti ecto acts and Vlad etc).

I’m not sure he’ll ever fully trust the bats due to their hero status, and that could be part of the reason he prefers the sirens. Sure they’ve done shady shit but they aren’t hiding behind masks of innocence. This openness makes it easier for him to let his walls down and connect with them.

I think it’s similar for Red Hood, Hood is a crime lord and while his identity is unknown he doesn’t hide his more shady dealings and also would feel more realistic to Danny.

I think Danny would be neutral to Hood at first, after all he still works with the bats, but over time (assuming they’ve had moments to bond and aren’t practically strangers when Danny proposes the “kidnapping”) he started to trust Hood. Maybe not as much as he trusts the sirens but he still trusts Hood.

Yup! It will be a slow process. But, Jason will earn his trust. Cause, he understands in a way not a lot of other could. He died, and then came back, different. And had to claw his way back to not drowning in madness. He still struggles to connect with his family. He's lost a lot. So to see someone who was so good, and bright? Who has lost everything? Even their ability to live in their home dimension? Jason is not going to break that trust.

Given his hatred of child heroes. Which, even with the pit madness gone? He's still gonna hate it. He would not advocate for Danny joining the batfam. Just, absolutely not. Kids got three moms. He's doing just fine. Leave him the Fuck alone B! Yes I do know some stuff about him. No I'm not going to tell you. Kid deserves people in his corner.

Danny also dislikes the whole teen hero thing. He had no choice. Why the FUCK are there so many teen heroes in This dimension? Why aren't there more adult heroes? He might not like them, but why is it the kids picking up the slack?!?!? Jason and Danny absolutely end up bonding over that view point.

Also, Waylon is another adult he would like. Someone who was hurt and abused and called a monster? I wonder if he might be able to relate to that? Also, Tiny rogue getting shoulder rides off the temperamental crocodilian mobster?

Danny NEEDS to have beans on his new costume, partially for aesthetics yes. but they are actually a built in stim for his anxiety. perhaps a few more hidden elsewhere as well?

My brain shut down at like 9 mental words: Rogue Baby Danny let loose at the British Museum.

I can think of a WHOLE LOTTA FOLKS getting important parts of their heritage back. Folks gonna scream “THAT BELONGS TO THE BRITISH MUSEUM!” And to that I say “horse hockey!”

They’ve been stealing from everyone so long, and if they want those pieces back? They’re gonna have to resteal them, and people knows about their bullshit now.

Try it, Bitch. Try one more time to play “got your conk” with the Sphinx and see how it plays out.

Steal that pillar back.

(Danny is especially fond of the Egyptian pieces tho. He sees those as being stolen from Tucker and No Sir. That Is My Emotional Support Nose.)

Now that I’m more awake, I’ll touch on Danny in Gotham.

Danny cusses in front of Jason (or vice versa)? Nope.

“Kid, you must be at least this tall to use those words.”

“So Red Robin is still not allowed to cuss?” Danny lisped a little bit, like a kid wearing the plastic vampire teeth you get at Hallowe’en.

Hood fell over cackling, holding his chest and gasping for air.

“Kid, if you ever need a cool uncle, ask for me.”

“Hood, is that the perp who infiltrated Wayne Manor?”

“Nah B, it’s a trick or treater trying to beat the rush.” Hood gave Danny a thumbs up, then muted during the inevitable lecture so he could talk and still know if anything important happened.

“Word to the wise, kid? Never boost the tires off the Batmobile. That’s how he caught me and he adopts anyone who can’t outrun him.” Danny cocked his head like a puppy as he listened before nodding. “Don’t steal the Bat’s wheels. Got it.”

Two nights later, Hood’s bike was all set on a street corner, except for one thing. Well, two really.

“That twerp stole my tires!” He grumbled, his voice full of pride.

“Oh shit. Everyone hide the papers. Jason’s gonna pull a Bruce,” Steph teased.

Jasn: Nah. Kids already chosen his adults. I'm definitely claiming sibling or uncle rights though. I told him not to steal the batmobile tires.

Steph:!!!!!! And he took that and stole yours! Urgh! I wanna meet him! I wanna squish his little face!

Jason: His suit has toe beans.

Cass: Cruel!

Tim: Yeah Jay! You can't just throw that out there and expect us to not be jealous! You got to spend ages with him! He kidnapped you and everything!

Jason:.... So I should tell him you want to be kidnapped?

Danny: Why is Red Robin, a teenager, working all these nights, with no sleep??? His mask isn't hiding all those bags under his eyes! 😠

Danny: .......... hmpf 👿

Danny: Time to kidnap me a Red Robin - I have the drugged coffee ready and set to be deployed! 😇

Elsewhere, on a rooftop of a random building

Tim: *shivers* why do I feel an ominous chill in the air? 🤔

Ok but now I'm just imaging Danny rolling a dead to the world Tim up into a weighted blanket and dragging him away.

It looks like a toddler dragging a dead body in a rug.

Jason gets a text message from Selina. It's just a picture of Red Robin passed out on her sofa. With Danny sat cuddled up to him, drawing on his suit. With what could very well be permanent markers. Oh Timmers is gonna hate that!

Jason quickly sends a message to Alfred that Tim was 'kidnapped'. And is currently having an enforced nap. And sends the picture along

Tim wakes up 16 hours later very confused. Still in hi mask. Very comfy and well rested. What the hell? Whoever kidnapped him didn't even tie him up?

Danny: Morning! CatMom! He's awake!

Selina: Yes kitten. I can see that. Are you planning to keep the little bird longer? Or can I call Batman over to collect him?

Danny:...... Red Hood said his family would be sad. So I guess I gotta let him go home.

Tim:.... Did you actually kidnap me just to make me sleep?

Danny: Your eye bags have eye bags! Clearly they aren't looking after you right!

Tim:... How is this my life?

Danny begrudgingly let Tim go. He couldn’t keep him hostage. He wasn’t that evil.

He had more hero’s to kidnap.

If that means using cujo and other green glowing animals to lure the youngest bay away. So be it. Robin was by far too young to do this.

Danny could at least get him away for a night. Maybe flying horses and stuff would keep him away even longer!

Then with stabby robin gone he could go mess with the big bat without so much concern. Give the guy a hard time. Maybe steal a batarang or two.

Maybe hood would be down to be “kidnapped” again and okay hostage. That always got the bay on edge he could just put a corrupt cop again. So many choices.

But first. Stabby robin.

Jason's message to Alfred: "There's been a kidnapping. It's Tim. Tim is the kid napping."

To distract the Stabby Robin, Danny just sends out ghost animals. They play keep away, and draw him back to the manor. Then Danny goes and collects the proof on the corrupt cops. Drops it off for the Gotham Gazette. They sure do like when he does that!

How happy would this little child be that journalists apparently do nothing with his information? (either for fear of retaliation, or he prefers to blackmail the rich, etc.)

damian tries to give treats to the glowing animals to make them stay… without much success… until cujo noses into robin's belt to pull out his kryptonite. The emotional flavor doesn't please cujo but other animals like it and it makes a good reward for an improvised wrestling tournament between ghost animals who have gained a certain intelligence in death. Damian looks at them doubtfully…maybe he can make them stay with more krytonite?

Every year, Sam, Danny, and Tucker go on a vacation courtesy of Sam's very reluctant parents. This year, it was Tuckers turn to choose the location and activities, and he chose Gotham.

Not only did it have Wayne Tech, one of the most technologically advanced companies, but Gotham was also hosting a massive furry convention this year and the three of them were complying as Succubats from the Dragon Quest series. They had gone all out, full purple body and face paint, contacts that made the whites of their eyes black, hand died leggings, leotards, and fuzzy leg warmers as well as everything else. Let's just say there was a lot of sowing involved.

Danny even made a mad scientist invention that toyed with gravity so that they could fly while flapping their wings. His parents were so proud and made them stop for pictures before they left.

The convention was fun and they got saved by Robin once and ended up teasing him a bit. Sam was cackling the next day when she found out Robin had gone through the rest of his patrol not knowing that Danny's purple galaxy lipstick was still on his cheek the entire time.

The only part they didn't like was this weird trenchant guy kept following them around in the shadows but Batman was with him so it was probably okay. The justice league had found out about the anti ecto acts and publicly tore the government a new one. Danny had barely managed to hide his parents involvement and work with Tuckers and Vlads help. While he hand Vlad were still bitter enemies, Vlad didn't want to see Maddie in jail and Danny could work with that.

On the flip side of things, the Justice League still had no idea about the portals in Amity Park or that anything was going on there. So when John Constantine found out about a insanely powerful entity that radiated death energy like the sun radiated light heading straight to Gotham, he panicked and immediately went to Batman to tell him the bad news.

Jahn had no idea what this creature was and was determined to find out, but between the make up and body paint and everything else, it was impossible to discover the identity of the three teens. It didn't help that Danny could just turn them invisible/fly them everywhere so John and Bruce are suffering

They try to take readings (DNA, dimensional ect) on the lipstick left on Damian's cheek. But the latter refuses and seems on the defensive… oh no Damian has a "slight" crush on these visibly non-human creatures

DPXDC Prompt #129

Danny was having fun hoping through different dimensions. He needed a vacation and was looking for a place to stay to rest. It’s been 5 or so years since he was crowned king and he had finally caught up some of the paperwork. The world he was touring right now had superheroes and it felt like the right place to relax without worrying.

Unfortunately he already existed in this world so he couldn’t stay in Amity park since he didn’t want to complicate things. Currently in a city that wasn’t in his own universe, Gotham, he spent some time checking out the city and exploring. Danny however feels something was off about himself in this universe, he felt like he shouldn’t know things he does. He slowly remembers the things that happened to him in this universe, he always did as part of his growing power. Although some of the things were things only an assassin would know which kind of started to worry him just a bit.

Everything went great in his vacation, well it was until Danny runs into someone his age, someone this universe’s version of him knew very well. His brother Damian who accuses him of being an imposter and chases Danny through his apartment with a sword.

Danny: "I'm not a clone! I'm visiting from another dimension!"

Damian: "I don't believe you"

Danny: "It's true! I overthrew the previous monarch of all afterlives, and now I can just travel between dimensions whenever I want to. Well, so long as im up to date on my paperwork. There are so many people who try to escape death!"

Damian: *thinking* overthrowing the king of ever afterlife is definitely an AlGhul thing to do. Making sure the things like paperwork are up to date before having fun sounds exactly like Danyal

Damian: "That makes sense."

Damian: thinks so much that his brother is dead

Danny DP: instinctively knows where his other self is and therefore that he is not dead

Danny DC: feels something is happening but doesn't know what

and if Damian learns that this Danny doesn't have a Damian ^^'

It can go a lot of different ways, but I have a taste for it:

Damian: My Danyal is dead so I guess it won't hurt anyone… now you're MY brother. Come I'll make you meet our father, M.Pennyworth , our animals and the strays that father picked up

DeadSerious Soulmate Prompt:

The DC Universes soulmates are ones that feel each other's pain. Damian's soulmate is clumsy, as he sometimes gets the occasional bruises and scratches out of nowhere. He strives to be the best at combat as to not hurt his soulmate, but being raised by assassin's proves to be difficult.

The DP Universes soulmates can write words on their skin that'll appear on their soulmate. Danny has written and written to his soulmate many times, and has only gotten a little over a handful of responses back. He knows his soulmate is a boy, his name is Damian and that he likes art and animals.

Neither are aware that their soulmate is from another universe.

Ohhhhhhhhh the misunderstandings! Danny thinking his soulmate doesn’t want him while Damian is panicking after Danny’s lab accident because what the fuck? Why is he suddenly being electrocuted, stabbed and burned every single day? Damian assumes that his soulmate is being tortured.

Damian can directly assume that his soul mate was captured by his grandfather who tortures him so that Damian breaks his bond with him and "loses his weak point".

Ra's could have already pushed Talia to break her own soul bond in the past

hooo Don't forget either that Damian died several times! Danny must be so confused too

Au in which Danny is a biologist teacher at Gotham academy. He is the best at his unit on the human body as he will just turn his skin translucent and just start pointing at the different organs.

What do you mean his heart that we can clearly see isn’t beating?

Only in Gotham do teachers remove their skin to teach about the human body and have none of the students blink an eye.

Bonus point if all the batkids have Danny as their teacher and haven't flinched or thought about reporting it to Bruce because it's not important.

It was when Jon was answering Damians about the difference between his x-ray vision and vision through transparent skin while eating Alfred's cookies in the presence of Bruce (who stole a cookie in the process) that Bruce finally learned about the biology teacher with skin that can make it become as transparent as glass
