“Bet ‘cha can’t catch me!”

Danny laughed as he chased Dani through the town. She’d come to get her ecto-dejecto shot and decided to stay for a day or two before heading out to travel again. It makes him worry about her—she’s still so young—but he’s learned that she can take care of herself. He always makes sure to tell her she can stay at his place if she needs to, though.

“Oh yeah? You haven’t seen how fast I can really go, kid!” Danny cackled as he shot after her. They played around like this for the good portion of an hour before they switched to practicing their powers and showing each other what they learned.

He looked over at Dani and watched her talk about her improved accuracy with ecto-beams. He always liked seeing her happy. He never had something like this as a kid, so it was cathartic in a way to ensure it happens with someone else. Though he does feel a bit selfish for regarding her with such closeness when it’s most likely unwelcome.

He was startled out of his semi-trance when his phone gave off the sound of an alarm. He pulled it off from its slot on his belt and turned it off. “Crap, sorry Dani. Mom and Dad finished one of their harder projects and wanted to celebrate with a family dinner, or something. I’ve got to go.”

Dani looked at him, slightly less upbeat than before. “Oh, yeah- yeah, sure! See you tomorrow?”

Danny grinned at her, already turned and ready to fly away. “See you tomorrow, Dani!”

Did he say something to upset her? He hoped not, but he couldn’t be perfectly sure…

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dani was sitting on a hilltop, looking over the park and up at the stars.

She slipped into a calm headspace as she did so, letting thoughts leak in here and there, but for the most part just watching the world go by. She broke out of her trance when her core alerted her to the presence of a ghost approaching her.

Not a hostile one, though.

She turned and looked at Danny with a small smile. “What’re you doing out here?”

Danny looked at her with a smile, but slight confusion in his gaze. “Night patrol. What’re you doing out here?”

Dani turned back to her view, letting Danny walk over and sit next to her. “Stargazing.”

Danny hummed in acknowledgement next to her, looking up towards the sky. They sat in silence for a couple minutes before Danny broke it. “So, what’s wrong?”

Dani looked at him, brows furrowed. “Huh?”

“What’s wrong? You don’t seem to be at your best, and you’re acting a bit strange. I want to help if I can.”

Dani stared at him with wide eyes before forcing out a laugh. “I- hah, nothing’s wrong!”

“Dani, you don’t have to pretend to be ok-”

“Danny, I’m fine, really!”

“Are you sure?” Danny turned to look at her, staring straight into her eyes with his own—one somewhat human and one disfigured—to try and show his sincerity. “I won’t judge you for it, if that’s what you’re worried about. You don’t have to tell me either, but I want to help, and I want you to be able to confide in me. Please?”

That’s all it took for Dani’s feelings to come swirling to her head, and before she knew it, there were tears running down her face as she rambled. “I- I’m just- just so lonely, with no friends, barely any family- and I just- I want one so bad but who’s going to accept me?! Vlad already tossed me out and you have your and I don’t want to intrude, and I know I can be on my own—should be on my own—but I can’t help it! I can’t help wanting to have someone to call a family and- and I know I have you and I’m so, so thankful for it but it’s a selfish want to have more-”

Her words transitioned to sobs as Danny pulled her close, tucking her face into his chest. She brought her arms up and clung to his suit tight, not wanting to let go. It was selfish of her, trying to hold his attention more than she needed. She was already a stained reminder of the atrocities Vlad had done, he probably doesn’t want her around for more than needed, but she gets to be selfish sometimes, right?

“Dani, it’s never, ever too much for you to ask for a family.” Danny pulled her away to look at her face, wiping away tears. “You’re still a kid. It’s not selfish; it’s more than ok for you to want to be close to people. You don’t have to hold yourself back. Vlad’s been getting better if you want to give him another shot,” Danny gave a grimace at that, seeming recoiling at the idea himself. “But my family is always an option. Just say the word, and I’ll make sure you’re the favourite kid in my parents’ eyes. You’re my family Dani. You don’t ever need to bottle these things up, you can just tell me when you need help. Don’t you ever forget that.”

Dani stared at him before wiping tears from her face and hiding her face in his shoulder again. She had the best big brother.

So Billy is 17, doesn’t matter if he’s homeless or adopted, but the League or his family still don’t know that he Captain Marvel.

One day, he gets caught in a summon.

The summoning turns out to be a marriage contract. Billy is now married to the eldritch ghost king. Who was also not happy.

After sending the cultist to hell, the ghost king transforms into a teenager. Danny Fenton

Huh, he could work with this. Billy transforms as well.

They start working together to find a way to break off the marriage. There isn’t one. They are stuck together. And because both of them have enemies, they can’t exactly tell people that they’re married

Eventually, they learn to like each more than friends. One day, Marvel is in a meeting and someone asks him what he’s doing after work,

Marvel: oh! I’m watching that new horror movie with my husband :))

Leaguers: ….

Marvel: he was so excited to see it I couldn’t say no!

Leaguers: you’re married???

Marvel: … it was supposed to be a secret… shit…

Shenanigans

DPxDC "Pick Me Up"

The stream goes live on the first day of the school year. It's the usual song and dance - mad laughing, threats, poor jokes, terror, and about thirty kids huddled together in a classroom behind Joker's back. Tim recognizes it as one of the Gotham Academy classrooms. Dick can't imagine the horror those kids' parents must be feeling right now. Jason jokes about middle school traumatic experiences. Damian is feeling very justified for skipping classes today.

Bruce, all suited up in his Batman garb, is making his way to the Academy as fast as he possibly can. Those are kids.

Gotham is once again anxiously kept on the edge of their seats, watching as Joker decides to interview the kids on their learning experience so far. Something about leaving a good first impression on the new generation or some other bullshit. Most kids stutter over their words - it's true that Gothamites are way more composed when facing life-threatening events, but those kids are only fourteen or fifteen for the most part. They are not old enough to keep their cool in the face of a murder clown.

That is, until Joker points his camera at one of the girls. Black hair in a high ponytail, blue eyes without a trace of fear, a slightly displeased, even bored expression on her face. She looks straight into the camera, not even waiting for the laughing madman to finish his question, and deadpans:

"I don't think I like school. Pick me up, please."

Joker sputters.

"Not so scared, I see," he sneers, and, in the next moment, a comically large gun painted in purples and greens is pointed to the girl's forehead, "How about now?"

The girl scrunches her nose and makes a so-so gesture.

"It's kinda meh," she admits, "Like, yeah, points for style, but you know, size doesn't matter. It's all in the technique."

Dick snorts over the comms. It's a bad time for laughing, sure, but the phrase caught him off-guard. This is not what you'd expect to hear from a teen, and definitely not something you'd expect anyone to say to the Joker. Jason's comms are muted, but Barbara knows he also laughed a little.

"Technique, you say?" Joker hisses, pressing the gun closer to the girl's head, and she winces, leaning away from it, almost as if she is disgusted by the touch.

"Yeah, I mean, guns are not that scary anyway. What are you gonna do with them, blast my brains all over the floor? Been there, done that," the girl shrugs, "Kinda nasty, but overall, it's just like slime, only sticky." She pauses and looks to the side, seemingly lost in thought, "Huh, maybe we should have added Borax to it. Or was it baking soda?.."

"Listen here, you little brat," Joker's fingers catch the girl's chin, and his voice becomes sickeningly menacing. Bruce is almost there, just two more minutes. Tim is already grappling onto the wall.

But none of them get to finish.

"Put your dirty fingers away from my sister," a low, cold, and even in a way that speaks of barely contained fury, voice comes from out of the screen.

The camera spins, like whoever is holding it turned really fast, and everyone watching the stream sees a fairly normal guy standing by the window - a turtleneck and ripped jeans, same black hair as the girl, same blue eyes... Wait, they are not blue.

And that's not a guy.

The camera falls down to the floor, and there are a lot of panicked screams coming from the broadcast now, but none of them sound like children's voices. It's the screams of adults, of grown-ass men, and later, someone even claimed they heard Joker's scream among them, too. The picture on camera glitches a few times, and the angle is awkward, but everyone still gets to see how shadows in the room morph into eyes, wide open and green, and how the darkness grows sharp teeth, countless grinning mouths that don't belong to any faces.

Screams turn into gargling and then to quiet whispers, filling the ears of all those listening with countless words in languages they don't know.

Red Robin turns off the recording and looks to that same guy from the levestream, sitting across him on the couch. The guy - Daniel, or Danny, as he introduced himself - looks him in the eyes and raises an eyebrow.

"Okay, and?"

"How did you do it?" Tim asks for the third time this evening. Danny blinks.

"Did what?" He asks, completely incomprehending. Tim groans. He's been trying to get his answers, any answers at this point, from the guy for thirty fucking minutes already. So far, he's got nothing. Danny, whoever the fuck he is, proves to be the most annoying human being on Earth.

"Seven people in a coma, including Joker himself, with no physical injuries and none of the children remember a thing! How?!" He demands, and a girl's face peeks from around the corner:

"I remember!"

Tim snaps his head at her, "What do you remember?"

The girl pauses, blinks, and looks to Danny. Then shrugs, "My brother picked me up from school."

Tim drops his head down and breathes out in frustration. He can't force the information out of civilians, he is a vigilante, not a mafia.

"Would it make you feel better if I promise not to do it again?" Danny asks, and his voice is way too innocent for Tim to believe him. He raises his head to look the guy in his shameless, amused eyes.

"I hate you."

"Thanks," Danny grins.

"Mom, Dad's Evil Again!"

Dan and Elle end up in the DC universe. They do not realize they are stranded for a while. When they do realize they go looking for ecto rich areas. 

They first go to the LOA but when they realize its corrupted and covered in assassins they leave.

They then try Gotham but they see the Territorial limanals and leave. 

They eventually find Lex's Kryptonite vault and try to steal it. They are caught but Lex is Vlad's counterpart so they do not immediately flee.

Dan is living with a redeemed Vlad so they don't really see him as a threat. 

Lex first believes they are clones that are hidden from him until he realizes where exactly he caught them.  Ellie pulls the dad card on Vlad all the time to get out of trouble so that's exactly what she does to Lex. He's very confused about that until Dan and Ellie start yelling at each other about whose fault it is they're stuck in this dimension.

---------------------------------

Misunderstandings that can occur:

- people thinking that clark is female in there dimension because they call danny mom

-jl believing that lex and a fem clark sleep together enough to have 2 kids due to Dan and Ellie

- Dan making a joke about lex and Clark That they must have gone through a very messy divorce and them thinking that's what happened on their end.

Ever feel like you belong in another time?

[krossan]

Something you didn't know you needed.

I'm proud of this one. The two drawings were the base inspiration for this clip. Came from here

And sorry but there is no audio. My intentions where never to add sound. It was merely a test.

Ok so Amity gets lots of its funding by hosting a summer camp every year. They host it by the lake in the woods and the local high schools are counselors and head of cabins.

The camp is like a 150 year tradition and it got very popular especially among the rich from around the country.

They kept it going, closing down for 3 summers because of the ghost attacks (the town could have the attacks and the camp running. It would be too dangerous)

They opened it the next year, but with a lot more liability paperwork and that stuff.

This is also the year where Damian Wayne gets sent to the camp.

Bruce went, Dick went, Jason went, Tim went and even Cass went for a year and now it was his turn.

Damian did not want to go. There are no phones allowed, so he won’t be able to communicate with his family. He went anyway. Danny is his head of cabin.

All the senior class members are liminal. With the weird traits and all that shit. They know Danny is phantom but they don’t really talk about it

Shenanigans:

- Danny noticing the faint liminal scent on Damian and kind takes him under his wing to hopefully have Damian feed off of his ecto and get healthier. Damian thinks his head of cabin just gets really attached really easily.

- Sam running the gardens and using her undergrowth powers. Damian think she’s related to Posion Ivy, but evidently does not care when he find out she a vegan and just as passionate about the environment and animals as he is

- Tucker teaches the campers a coding class. 30 fourteen year olds hacking into places they should not hack into. Surprisingly, under Tuckers guidance, they all manage to successfully hack into the Pentagon without detection. Damian glanced at Tucker’s screen and saw that he was not hacking along with them but hacking an organization called the GIW

-Val and Danny teach hand to hand combat and weapons. After the camper learn to use all the weapons, Val and Danny assign one o them (crossbow, knife, bow and arrow, laser gun). Damian is great at all of them, and they let him pick whichever weapon he wants.

- Damian offhandedly mentions that a katana is his preferably weapon. The next week, Danny’s younger sister comes back from her travels with a katana for him.

- dash and kwan run the camp wide games. They have capture the flag and dodgeball (but they changed it to bow and arrow dodgeball to secretly help with the kids aim), but now they added a little tournament.

- each camper uses their weapon and are pitted against each other until there is one winner. Unsurprisingly, it’s Damian.

- the GIW crashes the camp in the middle of the night after getting a really strong ecto signal (Damian, plus Danny, plus the other liminal counselors). The counselors were at a separate location having a meeting or some other shit that doesn’t involve the campers.

-with Damian leading, the campers manage to fend them off. He and the other campers notice that they seemed to be targeting Damian.

-the counselors get back in time to help them.

-Damian doesn’t mention any of this to his family, and neither do the other campers. They all want to come back next year.

BONUS

Damian send weekly letters about what he’s doing at camp but in simple terms so that the Wayne’s think that camp just expanded their activities and Damian’s having fun

BONUS BONUS

Damian, after feeding off of Danny’s ecto for 2 months becomes visibly liminal. He grows a foot and a half taller, gets fangs, can hold his breath for longer, is quieter, eyes start glowing.

The Waynes are slightly suspicious, but they’ve all went to the camp and came back fine, so maybe he just had a growth spurt.

Maybe months later Constantine comes to the Watchtower and ask Damian how long he’s been dead. Damian answers.

“4 months, magician.”

The Waynes are now freaking out because they had no idea Damian died during summer camp.

Cue the rabbit hole into Amity Park, Phantom, Danny, and the GIW

Hiya! First post on tumblr! I may not be new to Danny Phantom, but I am new to the fandom or interacting with fandom and social media in general so go easy on me. Here’s some old art as a peace offering

[kriphantom]

Silly little thing :D

[demonic0angel]

Phantom member of JLA hears about the other sidekicks making a team.

Asks if it is okay for his to join them.

Que them meeting Dani/Ellie.

Superman I didn't know you had another sister after seeing them interacting.

Only to be told nope she's my clone

Superman burst into a coughing fit.

Wonder Woman paused and then said, "Oh, that's wonderful! How do you consider her? A sister? A daughter? Perhaps a cousin?"

Phantom and Spirit beamed at her. Phantom answered, "She's a little bit of everything? But mostly a little sister to me."

Then Superman blurted out, "But she's a clone! Shouldn't— I mean— isn't it strange?"

Both ghosts turned to him with green, glowing eyes.

"Pardon?"

"Say that again?"

Superman coughed. "Well— it's just— doesn't it make you uncomfortable that someone with your DNA, who was created by someone that's not you with unknown purposes, is just walking around? Don't you feel like it's an invasion of privacy and ethics to have clones of yourself walking around?"

Phantom and Spirit stared at him.

Then they looked at each other.

Then they both reached inside of themselves and pulled out a notepad and pen, respectively.

Spirit handed Phantom her pulled out item and he wrote something on it before ripping out a page and then giving it to Superman.

Superman stared at the set of numbers in front of him with confusion.

Spirit reached over and patted his elbow.

"It's the number to a trusted psychiatrist. You need it."
