Nightwing (2016-): Fear State

[breathlesswit]

instead of jason being damian’s protector in the league can we just have them being feral best friends. partners in crime. co-workers.

i want damian to be in gotham telling funny stories and fond memories from his childhood and league days, and every single story contains his ‘partner, hood’, because apparently he and another one of the trainees got along so well and worked so well together that Talia made them an official assassination duo, so they would always train and go on missions together, and they would just absolutely fuck shit up constantly.

and in the batfams heads this hood guy is like, another kid. like damian’s age, maybe a year or two older because damian keeps mentioning how paternal hood can get. and then the fucking Red Hood shows up, over six ft and 200 pounds of pure murderous monster muscle, and damian’s like ‘there’s my partner there! hi hood!’ and they wave at each other across the rooftops and the entire family just fuckin. bluescreen.

dick: so was your friend younger than you?

damian: i mean it depends on how you count his age. he recently restarted, you see, so logistically we don’t quite know where that puts him.

dick: what

——

bruce: who are you talking to on the phone there, damian?

damian: hood, he’s in gotham for a few days and wants to meet up!

bruce, thinking a playdate would be good for damian: would your friend like to come here for dinner?

damian, putting the phone on speaker: i dunno, do you?

jason on the phone, voice deep as fuck and gravelly because he hasn’t drank in 2 days: absolutely the fuck not

bruce, terrified: what the f-

The Necromancer

DP x DC Prompt inspired by 'The Ghost Warlock' on A03 by Cas3_Blanca

The Justice League has been dealing with matters related to the Undead recently. And JLD could barely handle the undead. That is until Constantine had called in a favor from someone he knew. A young man in a black trench coat with a skeleton following him everywhere, that skeleton had a burned headband on it.

The young man is a necromancer, and he is very good at handling the matters of the undead. He just has a bit of disdain for the Justice League and keeps to himself whenever he is around any Justice League member. The only person he seems to trust is Constantine, as he doesn't even interact with the rest of the JLD members. The young man had told them that he's only helping because he owed Constantine quite a few favors, and once Constantine used up all those favors on helping the Justice League, he's done with them, which means he'll leave the Justice League and Justice League Dark to deal with the undead.

Danny's life was as good as it could get. His parents had accepted him as Phantom, Clockwork assured Danny that he doesn't have to be the Ghost King just yet, his grades are steadily rising, and he is scheduling fights with his Ghostly Rogues.

That is until the GIW had shown up again. They were in the process of isolating Amity when the entire city fought back against them.

There were a few casualties, which mostly consisted of people Danny is close to. His parents, Jazz, Sam, Tucker, Valerie, Dash, Mr. Lancer and Star had perished during the struggle, and only those close to Danny hadn't become Ghosts. There wasn't enough to recover from them. Danny only has a few things to remember them by. His mom's Goggles, his dad's fudge recipe, Sam's bracelet, Tucker's PDA, and Valerie's earrings. Jazz was the only one to be buried, as she still had a body that wasn't vaporized.

He tried looking for Dani and Vlad but learned from Technus that they were captured and ended by the GIW. Now, the only person he has to lean on is his "Uncle" Constantine.

Constantine has helped Danny many times during his first years as Phantom. That's why Danny owes Constantine so many favors. He had tried to call help from the Justice League whenever Constantine wasn't around, but he was just brushed off. Hence why he doesn't like helping the Justice League's undead problems. He had also asked Technus to put his information and anything else related to him under lock and key. He doesn't want the Justice League to access and have files of his information. He's got Jazz's skeleton with him because he's taken up the role of Ghost King, and it came with Pariah's ability to raise a skeleton army if need be, but he only uses it on Jazz and other nearby buried bodies to help him deal with undead that aren't Ghosts. He also doesn't want to show his Ghostly half to the Justice League.

He's gotten quite good at hiding his mental presence from the Martians on the Justice League, but some of his emotions and thoughts slipped through. Now, the Justice League is being annoying to him by trying to apologize to him for whatever it is they did to him so they could still rely on him for any undead related issues.

AU where when Bruce gets lost in time he ends up helping start the Stonewall Riots 🙏. Like it could be an accident or it could be on purpose but I need it to happen. And then whenever one of the batkids tries to jokingly accuse him of homophobia, he’s just like “actually, I threw the first brick at stonewall” and nobody knows if he’s telling the truth or not. But then like he’ll also be so adamantly against homophobia and sometimes he struggles not to bring it up in conversation.

Bruce: You’re grounded.

Tim: Wow, during Pride Month??? Way to let your biphobia show.

Bruce: My brick gave you pride month so I’m immune to that accusation.

Tim: What the fuck??? What does that even mean???

Damian, at dinner, talking about transphobes in his classes: I understand violence is discouraged at the academy, but surely this can be the exception.

Alfred: Unfortunately not Master Dam-

Bruce: Back in my day, we used to hit them with bricks and beer bottles.

Everyone: 👁️👄👁️

Alfred, trying to remember any incidents where this happened: ????

Damian: Thank you for the advice, Father.

Dick and Jason, getting picked up from the police station for getting involved in a riot against transphobes and homophobes: Listen, we can explain -

Bruce, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye: I’m so happy you decided to continue the family tradition. I couldn’t be more proud.

Batfam bodyswap but all of them have insane chronic pain in different places.

Jason, in Tim’s body: Yeah, your hands and waist should not feel like this.

Tim, in Dick’s body: Shut up, it's normal. But Dick all of your joints are fucked. What is wrong with you?

Dick, in Damian's body: Nothing. Jesus, Dami, I want to peel my ribs out of my chest.

Damian, in Jason’s body: Todd, I don't think the pit healed you at all...

Duke, in Bruce’s body: ow

Bruce, in Cass' body: I, for one, feel amazing.

Cass, in Duke’s body: I'm going to go OD on Advil. That probably won't be enough for how much my head hurts.

Titans Tower AU where Jason met Tim during his first ever high-end event as a Wayne adoptee, and it ended with Jason hyperventilating alone on a balcony because a nine year old appeared behind him, tapped him on the shoulder, and politely and robotically inquired ‘do the hors d’oeuvres suit your taste, Mr Todd?’ and Jason was so stressed from the environment already that when he heard that kind of speech coming from a nine year old he freaked out and immediately assumed Tim was either possessed or in some other way a threat, and he instinctively karate chopped the kid in a nerve on his shoulders before bolting, and now looking back it was probably just some weird rich kid who didn’t know how to make friends and Jason totally physically assaulted him in a public place with witnesses and Bruce was probably going to hear about it and decide that he wasn’t cut out to be a Wayne and get rid of him and now he can hear Dick crying with laughter in the hall as he tries to locate Jason because as funny as it was to watch that happen he probably should help with whatever panic attack Jason just ran off to have after Tim collapsed, temporarily paralysed, and also he hit the champagne glass display on the way down so really there was no way they could avoid Bruce hearing about the incident-

years later, the Red Hood breaks into Titans Tower to beat up Timothy Drake, and upon revealing his identity and pinning him against the wall, Tim nervously whispers ‘oh god you aren’t going to paralyse me again, right?’

memories flooding back, Jason’s face goes red so quickly he doesn’t know what to do with himself, and instantly forgetting why he went to the tower in the first place he ends up letting Tim go on the promise that they never talk about that incident ever again. Slightly terrified, Tim agrees. Jason nods, stiltedly, and they awkwardly stand next to each other in the wrecked tower for 30 silent seconds before Tim eventually asks for help with his English essay, and, baffled, Jason says yes.

when Bruce shows up and wants to know what changed Hood’s mind, both of them refuse to say a word about it. it honestly scares Bruce how serious they are about their silence.

Reblog if you're not homophobic

Every url that reblog’s will be written in a book and shown to my homophobic dad.

Jason is one of the most distant in the family. No one really knows what happened after he got resurrected in the pit, and it's not like they'd ask. Jason was a pretty private man, after all.

In this AU, they don't know about anything that went down with the outlaws. Nothing with the LOA, either. So sometimes, a conversation will go down like:

--

Tim: Don't you think it's a bit weird that Penguin hasn't done anything as of late? What if he's planning something big? There hasn't even been a single appearance-

Jason *eating a sandwich*: He's in my walls.

Tim: Sorry- what?

Jason:

Tim: What the fuck did you mean by that?

Jason:

--

Dick *on the phone*: Hey, wanna go out for lunch this week? There's this case I have to speak to you about-

Jason: Sorry, I'm in Nepal right now.

Dick: Oh? You on some big solo case, or-

Jason: Nah, I was gonna visit my favorite magic cult, but then I ran into Talia and I haven't seen her in a bit so I doubt I'll be able to see you this week haha

Dick: What.

Jason: *hangs up*

--

I dunno, I just really like these kinds of AUs. The comedy is limitless.

[breathlesswit]

AU where after Jason comes back to Gotham he accidentally reveals he’s alive because he gets bored and logs into his old discord account and finds Dick working through his grief by still using their old server and pretending that Jason’s responding to him and Jason gets so mad he accidentally responds for real and fucks up his whole plan

[breathlesswit]

Batfam incorrect quotes but things that I've said

Tim: If I had a nickel for every time a coworker told me that I reminded them of their autistic 11 year old kid as an adult, I'd have at least two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

--

Damian: I may just tackle you over this table.

Jason: Yeah, if you can reach.

Damian: *Climbs on top of the table to actually do it*

Jason: WAIT WAIT THAT WAS A JOKE, GREMLIN!

--

Hal: Hey, Spooky, do you think that one gorilla or one hundred men would win in a battle to the death?

Bruce: Are the men trained? What's the terrain? Are any of the men metas? Are we assuming that there is no psychology involved? How much time do they have to prepare and strategize?

Hal: Woah, it's just one or the other, dude.

Bruce: If you want a proper answer, I need to have all of the details.

--

Steph: You know, I've always wanted to be a cult leader!

--

Dick: I don't like to be a hater. I really don't.

Dick: But they make it so easy.

--

Jason: What the hell?! That's evil and fucked up!

Cass, nodding sagely: Evil and fucked up...

[breathlesswit]

Damian: Todd, the whole family has been summoned, you must-

Jason: I don't have to do shit. Go to hell.

Damian: -tt- I, for one, am not surprised, I will inform the others of your cowardice.

Jason: yeah, yeah. The family disappointment per usual. I'll go back "home" when Alfred calls me himself. Now fuck off, I have a criminal empire to run.

Damian: If you care, it is Drake who called the meeting, not father.

Jason, hesitating: Yeah, well, he knows how I feel. Whatever. We can fight it out later if he's pissed.

Damian: I will waste no more precious air on a buffoon such as you *disappears*

Later

Damian: Drake, as duty I must inform you that Todd will not be here tonight. He is far too home-phobic presently.

Tim, freezes in place, because he called the family meeting so he could come out as bisexual and actively dating a man: You mean homophobic?

Damian, rolling his eyes: if that is the proper terminology, yes

Tim: what, uh, what else- I mean, did he say anything else?

Damian: the typical drivel. "Go to hell" "Family disappointment per usual" He said if you don't approve of his decision, to challenge him in battle.

Tim: he... wow. I didn't think he'd...

Tim: Holy shit. Wait. Does that mean, do you- you know why I called the meeting? You know? Who else knows? Does everyone know?

Damian: imbecile. If everyone knew, then what would be the point of the meeting?

Tim: right. Stupid question. How do you feel about it?

Damian, thinking Tim asked his opinion on Jason's decision to avoid the family: -tt- Father and Grayson will be disappointed but not surprised. Gordon will be silently annoyed. Pennyworth might share sympathy but no doubt conceals his true opinions on the matter. Cain and Brown will shrug it off. Thomas might not care, but he is rather unpredictable. It is of little consequence.

Tim: okay. And... and you?

Damian: why should I care? We make our choices and must live with the consequences. I do not pretend to understand as I would never choose to estrange myself from father, or otherwise actively ruin the bonds I spent so many years forging simply to preserve my own comfort.

Tim: estranged??

Damian: I presume that is the goal. That or torture father with guilt and grief for eternity.

Tim: d- don't you think that's a little dramatic?

Damian: indeed. Grayson would claim it would 'tear the family apart' or such nonsense. I am the only sensible one in this useless household.

Tim: well, thank you for... debriefing me on the situation, Damian.

Damian: -tt- try not to waste our time more than necessary in the meeting tonight, Drake. *leaves*

Tim:

Tim: this is red robin on coms line 12, repeat, this is red robin on coms line 12

Tim: The meeting scheduled for tonight is cancelled. False alarm. I'll send updates if anything changes. And I'm

Tim:

Tim: i have some business to address these next few weeks. Going low contact. Red Robin out.

Tim:

Tim: *starts crying*

Boostle we win

[breathlesswit]

I believe in the Core four platonic supremacy, but this was more for the haha's than anything

And I wanted to make Tim as Caroline Hills with high heels SO BAD.

Mostly because I HC he looks just like his mom when she was younger, so, he is a heartbreaker to EVERYONE

(And if you don't like this, that's okay, BUT IGNORE ME, SCROLL-SCROLL)

AND THEN THERE’S DANNY

I saw THIS photo-set and immediately knew just what I had to do. 

[breathlesswit]

Clockwork: Danny do you want a stable timeline or a funny little little man?

Ascended!Danny:*holding Impulse* A funny little man.

Clockwork: No. Leave the Speedsters alone.

Ascended!Danny: But I want a funny little man!
