Dying Sparks as Reincarnations of Patroclus and Achilles

Danny was Patroclus and Billy was Achilles

The gods were not surprised when Achilles and Patroclus chose to be reincarnated together. Many souls did that, and when Hades mentioned it during a meeting, none of them thought too deeply about it.

Both Hades and Zeus were cursing that decision when, decades after the two finally reincarnated, they were faced with the boys.

Hades had to watch as a spirit that he was 75% sure was the singer version of his father coached the ghost king, formerly Patroclus, on how to be a being of power that even superceded Hades’s own.

Zeus meanwhile, had to deal with the headache of having to keep mercury from telling Billy that he was the reincarnation of Achilles, and hopefully try and keep the others from discovering that little fact, since they’re champion was already insanely powerful and did not need more drama.

Whenever Olympus met after these two things were discovered, Hades and Zeus took out a majority of the session, be moaning, their idiotic somewhat charges (Hades was introduced to Patroclus, who is now known as Danny, as a spirit rather than being a god, since clockwork didn’t want to overwhelm him yet.) soon, the stories of the boys became the highlight of the Olympian meetings.

So when Danny was almost ended by humans who decided to play God?

Well, Aphrodite and mercury didn’t mind incurring both Zeus and Hayes’s wrath to make sure that these two lovebirds could see each other again…

As long as they had Persephone‘s help.

Dead Serious as reincarnations of Perseus and Andromeda

Danny was Perseus and Damian was Andromeda



Damien remembered who he had been very young. He was about seven at a time, and it was just after Todd had come out of his pit rage and was deemed suitable for interaction. Todd was one of his guards, but was somewhat of a playmate and often told Damien stories.

The day that Todd told him the story of Perseus and Andromeda was the first and only time that Damien cried in front of Todd.

Damien did not let himself be distracted by it. While his past life was important, it did not define him. It did not change the fact that he was now Damien Wayne, son of Bruce Wayne and Talia Alghoul.

That was his thought process until he saw a boy who is definitely Perseus getting pushed around at Gotham Academy. He had known of the boy, Danny Fenton, who just moved to Gotham with his sister, but the minute he laid eyes on the boy he knew that was his Perseus.

Perseus, who had protected him from a monster that everyone else refused to fight, was being beaten up by these idiotic simpletons.

This would not stand.

Perseus protected him last time. He could protect Danny this time.

Dead Tired as reincarnations of Merlin and Arthur

Tim was Merlin and Danny was Arthur

Tim never understood why he and Danny clicked the way they did. They just met at a gala and everything just clicked. Figuring out Danny had been a vigilante, a vigilante who was willing to be on his team? That had just been icing on the cake.

Now, they were at some weird magicians layer. Apparently this guy had made a habit of collecting magical artifacts, several of which were extremely dangerous and they had to find whatever was causing chaos. As they walked around, Zatara pointed out a mirror and explained that it would show them who they were in a past life. If they hadn’t had a past life, they wouldn’t show up in the mirror at all.

Of course they all looked in it.

Zatara had said that reincarnation wasn���t too uncommon, and she wasn’t lying. While Bart pouted because he wasn’t in the mirror, Kon stared in shock at John Laurens’s reflection in the mirror.

Cassie didn’t have a reflection in the mirror either, but she didn’t care as much. Zatara did not have a reflection, and soon it was just him and Danny, who hadn’t looked in.

They looked in at the same time and saw two images looking back at them. Where Danny stood, there was now a boy with a crown on his head, a crown that rested upon light brown hair. The boy in the mirror on Danny side gave Tim a smirk, only to be hit over the head by tens reflection.

Tim’s reflection was a boy with black hair and green eyes. He wasn’t wearing fancy clothes, but Tim could just tell the boy was powerful. As he watched, the boy cuffed Danny’s reflection in the back of the head again before smiling at the two of them and causing a little fire to appear in his hand.

Zatara drops the book she was holding, and looks like she could pass out.

“That is King Arthur of Camelot and Merlin.” Zatara whispered.

Bart whistled. Cassie looked impressed and Kon just looked unsurprised. 

“it makes sense that you two have insanely powerful reincarnations, while I’m just a guy who died in the civil war, and is only known for being in a gay musical.”

Dead Quiet as reincarnations of Orpheus and Eurydice

Cassandra was Orpheus and Danny was Eurydice

Cassandra learned music before she learned speech. Music and dance came much easier to her than speech, the movements, familiar, and alien in the best ways.

She often hummed while doing things in the manner, one of the only things that would alert people to her being there. Everyone in the manner knew she loved music, especially musicals. One of those musicals, Hadestown, always seemed to make her straighten up in her seat, gripping the sides of her chair as if she could fall off the world. The entire Batfamily learned to only play the happy songs from Hadestown while in the car.

She didn’t sing often though.

This is why Stephanie was so surprised when Cassandra accepted her invitation to karaoke. She didn’t show it, happily accepting the offer and managing to bring Tim and Dick along with them. Barbara had already agreed beforehand

In the beginning, Cassandrajust sat there, listening to them laugh and sing. But then a boy got on the stage, and Cassandra sat straight up.

The boy sung a song from Hadestown, one she recognized halfway through as All I’ve Ever Known. He certainly wasn’t impressive enough for Cassandra to be acting the way she was.

As soon as the boys stopped singing, Cassandra stood up and crossed over to the stage. The boys eyes locked on her, and his face changed to mirror Cassandra’s.

She wordlessly pulled herself upon the stage, and typed a song title into the machine. Smiles lit up both of their faces as the music started.

“Come home with me.” Cassandra’s singing voice was rough but sweet.

Everyone in the karaoke bar went quiet as they listened. It wasn’t as if the two of them were the best singers in the world, but no one could tear their eyes away from the two strangers who were so clearly in love as they sung their duet.

Dead on Main as reincarnations of Achilles and Patroclus

Danny was Patroclus and Jason was Achilles

Danny remembered his past on the first day of second grade. He had been in class and the teacher had been discussing Greek mythology and phrases that came from Greek myths like Pandora’s box.

One moment he was in the classroom the next he was in his lovers’s arms as he whispered secret weakness that even the gods didn’t know.

When he came back to himself, he was informed that he had a seizure. It was the first time his parents ever picked him up from school early.

Jason remembered who he had been at a very different time. He remembered who he was when he saw pictures of a boy in the suit he had died in, and his mind flashed to a man who had dawned his armor and saved his life. Later, he would wake up and his quarters at the league, and a servant would inform him that he had had a seizure.

(When Jason became Red Hood, he made it clear to everyone that Robin was off-limits. They were free to go after the bat and the other birds, but no one in those colors was allowed to get hurt too badly. He knew it made things messy, but fuck if another person would die in his armor.)

Danny left Amity after graduation. He decided to move somewhere, anywhere he hadn’t been before. He threw a dart to decide, not that he told Jazz that. (he told Jazz that he had decided on Gotham due to their aerospace program.) (Later, he would wonder if clockwork had had a hand in where the dart landed.)

Danny got an apartment in the narrows, and quickly got a job as a mechanic working for red hood. He never met the big man in charge, but he heard good stories.

Then, one day, a bunch of the goons started panicking. A bunch of people were being attacked and the Big Boss wasn’t gonna be back until late. Danny, working on instinct and a strange sense of déjà vu, took the helmet that he had been preparing and went to grab his guns.

Jason arrived back just in time to see a man wearing his armor collapse after being shot. Everything went green after that.

Death Defying as Alexander Hamilton and John Laurens

Dick was Alexander and Danny was John

Dick had been in love several times in both lives. He hadn’t fully remembered until the day his parents died (and oh god he was an orphan again), and he struggled through it. (He saw pieces of the others in everyone. He saw Washington and Bruce screaming at him to go home. She saw Barbara and her wit and strength and was so reminded of Angelica. Jason reminded him so much of Philip it physically hurt at times)

(He could never save them. He tried so hard, but he never could.)

So when he met Danny, the father of twins who attended his classes, he thought he was just imagining the similarities again. He thought he was just searching for someone who wasn’t there in Danny’s smile and his voice and his strong belief injustice for all.

As they started dating, Dick was so scared that he was going to rewrite his dear John or erase his Danny. He was so afraid that he would forget that they weren’t both the same. He didn’t want to forget his love for John, but Danny couldn’t replace him. He didn’t want to make Danny replacement yet he loved them both so similarly it ached.

It wasn’t until late one night, when Danny had pulled him to the couch and told him they need to talk that he learned that they were one and the same.

Spirit Halloween as reincarnations of Perseus and Andromeda

Bruce was Perseus and Danny was Andromeda

Bruce only ever told three people he was reincarnated. One was Alfred, late one night before his travels. He’d barely been 12 and had told Alfred , fearing rejection. Instead, he got understanding.

The other people he told were Diana and Clark, and it was in a moment of pure weakness. They had been describing their feelings after being trapped for a while and Bruce was so tired. So he told him and hush whispers about how he understood not fitting because he wasn’t supposed to live again. How the memories clash was mind at times and how sometimes he thought about Medusa late at night.

He expected rejection. Instead, he got a hug from Clark and squeezed arm from Diana. After that, Diana always would make Christian food with him. It was one of the only times he was allowed in the kitchen.

(those three were the only ones who knew that he wondered about Medusa sometimes. Alfred was the only one who knew that when he had heard the version of the myth, Medusa became a monster because she was raped, he threw up. Alfred probably knew that another facet of his refusal to kill stems from the guilt of realizing that he had killed an innocent woman who had been cursed by the gods.)

Danny didn’t really talk about his reincarnation. Jazz had known, even when he was little. He didn’t remember exactly when he told her, but he knew he had told her young, and it always been a quiet understanding about it. She helped him avoid mentions of his story.

He had told Sam Tucker. After the whole debacle about Tucker being possessed by the guy, he was a reincarnation of, Danny felt like he had to explain. They both looked shocked, but not that shocked.

Pandora knew from the moment they met. Clockwork did too. He didn’t know how they did, but they just knew.

(jazz was the only one who knew he still woke up some nights sobbing about his first parents. His parents had given him up as a sacrifice. sure, it was to appease a God, but Danny never got over the fact that his family did it so easily. It was part of why he could never bring himself to hate his new parents. Well, they may have been neglectful at times, Danny knew they would rather burn the world than see him die.)

Danny had only been in Gotham for a few hours when he stumbled across the Batman. He had not planned to move to Gotham, but his offer from the Wayne aerospace department and Jazz moving there to work at Arkham had won him over.

He saw Batman fighting some sort of rogue in Jerry make up. He knew he was supposed to give up the vigilante thing. That’s been part of his agreement with jazz. However, he didn’t wanna let this guy hurt Batman. So he joined the fight.

Batman and Robin seemed confused by him, joining the fight, but accepted it. (Robyn was a vicious little guy) however, Danny would never forget the moment that he punched the stupid man with the awful clown makeup and made eye contact with Batman.

Danny had only ever told three people he was a reincarnation, but the fourth didn’t need him to say a word.

Bruce had only ever told three people he was a reincarnation, but the fourth time, he only had to say one word.

“Andromeda?”

Dying Sparks as reincarnations of Thomas and Martha Wayne

Billy was Thomas and Danny was Martha

Billy had always been good at medical things.  It saved his life on the streets, and a lot of the time he didn’t even need proper materials. Some of the homeless folk used to comment that he should become a doctor. For some reason, that always made Billy feel a bit nostalgic.

Danny had always been surprisingly persuasive. It didn’t say him for being a social outcast, but it did make him very hard to argue with. Most people refuse to argue with him on principal, since he could make almost anyone agree with him. Before the portal, he had even planned to join the debate team.

After Billy became Captain Marvel, he often felt a strange sense of déjà vu. Sometimes it was things from other champions, as Solomon would inform him. A few times, even the god seemed confused though. More than once he heard Zeus mention that he needed to talk to Hades.

After the portal incident, Danny often felt a strange sense of déjà vu. His family’s guns became a lot more terrifying for some reason, and while some of it, he could just brush off as weirdness, other times he was tempted to drag clockwork over for an explanation.

Danny was not planning to go to Gotham, but he was there for a two week space program sponsored by the Wayne foundation. Something about Gotham felt familiar, but he chalked it up to how much ectoplasm was there.

Billy had never planned to go to Gotham, but he needed to grab a cursed item and he refused to ask the family to do it for him. Gotham felt oddly familiar, but Billy brushed it off as the curses.

When a mugger cornered Danny, he didn’t expect a strange sense of déjà vu and fear. He knew intellectually that he would be fine. He could make the bullet phase straight through him, and his healing would fix him up in no time, but there was a strange sense of fear and terror. Danny’s hand went to his neck, searching for something that wasn’t there.

Billy wasn’t planning to do any vigilante work, but when he passed by an alley, he saw a mugger and stopped. The mugger had a boy only a little older than him back against the wall, and the boy was reaching for his neck. Billy had never felt the sense of terror and déjà vu and protectiveness, so without thinking about it he fired lightning from his fingertips straight into the mugger.

The mother fell, and Danny stared at the boy in front of him. The boy stared back at him, and Danny felt this strange feeling of déjà vu and devotion and pure love. A tear slipped down his cheek.

Billy stepped closer to the boy over the body of the unconscious mugger (he hopes the man was unconscious, he had never done that before, and he wasn’t sure the man was even still breathing) and wiped the tear from his cheek.

“Thank you for saving me.” The boy told him. “I don’t know why I’m crying.”

Billy smiled. “I got you.”

They stood in comfortable silence for a moment, neither of them noticing Batman staring at them with pure shock.

Dead Serious as reincarnations of Odysseus and Penelope

Damian was Odysseus and Danny was Penelope

Damien had always remembered his past. It wasn’t something he told others, and never something he was particularly willing to speak of. The training served him well, yes, but telling grandfather or mother about it always felt wrong. (he ignored the fact that grandfather reminded him so much of Poseidon but almost worse.)

Even after he went to live with his father, he ignored the remnants of his past life. He ignored how Grayson‘s attitude reminded him far too much apologies for comfort, and how Drake reminded him of a scary mixture of Athena and Eurylocus. He ignored how Brown reminded him of Hermes and how much of Odysseus he saw in Todd.

He ignored at all until he met Daniel Fenton, and everything fell into place.

Danny had always known he was a reincarnation. While inventing and video games has always been fun, weaving was still one of his passions. Jazz had noticed it when he was younger and always made sure to buy him books on weaving.

Apparently, ghosts were able to tell when people were reincarnations, but not what they were. Clockwork recognized him, though. Pandora did too after a few visits to her kingdom.

(he tried to ignore how often he saw his past and others. He tried to forget about how he once asked clockwork, if any of his family had been reincarnated and how clockwork had told him that Odysseus endemic has been reincarnated, but it was unlikely either of them would remember unless they came into contact with ectoplasm.)

(the minute he met Dani, something in him, screamed mine. He could tell that a big part of why Dani chose him was because of the memories. (He tried to ignore how similar Vlad and Antinous were. At this point, he was almost in his son(now daughter)’s shoes.))

Jazz had ended up taking him with her when they went to Gotham. Their parents had to declared it would be a good fresh start, hoping that the space would do him good.

(Danny had asked clockwork if his parents knew he was a reincarnation. He was told that they didn’t know what consciously, but it was part of the reason why they have been so willing to let him and jazz be so independent.)

(jazz didn’t talk about her past life. Danny Respected that.)

It was his first day at Gotham Academy, and the receptionist told him that one of his classmates would be showing him around. Ellie was off at Gotham Middle School, so he was by himself, waiting in the office until the receptionist called him over.

Green eyes made eye contact with blue ones, and everything fell into place.

Dead Tired as reincarnations of Odysseus and Penelope

Tim was Odysseus and Danny was Penelope

Tim and Danny had been together almost 2 months the first time Tim had to go on a “business trip” (code for a week long mission).

It was only supposed to be a week, but things went sour. Tim was separated and stranded for another two weeks. During that time, his dreams were… different. (he dreamed of his arguments with Bruce, but instead of Bruce, there was a woman in Greek battle armor. he dreamed of being on a ship, desperate to go home. He dreamed of a man, someone he saw as a friend guilty confessing to something that made his mouth run dry and made him feel all the rage and pain and grief inside of him, sharpen into a knife.)

(one night, he dreamed of stabbing someone and feeling power and anger and pain rushed through his veins. He woke up, the word monster ringing in his ears)

Danny waited patiently for his boyfriend to come home. He knew that Tim was red Robin, and that this definitely wasn’t a normal business trip, but he was content to wait, even as the days past and his nerves frayed at the edges.

Five days after Tim left, Danny picked up materials from the craft store and began to weave. At night, he dreamed of a giant empty house and men with blood on their teeth and arrogance dripping from their mouth, waiting for him at every corner. He dreamed of a boy trying desperately to protect him, and of all the grief and rage and pain he felt as he watched the boy being bruised and battered by men who he could not make leave.

(one night, he must have sleep, walked, because he woke up, sitting at his loom, unweaving the tapestry he’d been making. It was of an olive tree.)

Tim was usually one of the few people who always did his reports, which is probably why his friends were so shocked when he immediately left the tower and drove home to his apartment. Anxiety and anticipation buzzed in his veins as he made his way up the stairs.

He unlocked the door, was shaking hands and opened it to find Danny sitting at a loom, weaving. For a moment, the room flickered, and Danny changed from wearing his normal jeans and T-shirt to wearing a Grecian dress, his short hair suddenly longer and piled up. They blinked, and it was standing again, Danny, who seen him and stood up from his loom.

“Is it you? Have my prayers been answered?” Danny’s voice shook, and Tim felt a strange sense of déjà vu, almost falling to his knees as he walked over to cup Danny’s cheek.

“I know you’ve been waiting.” Tim had never heard his voice shake before, but it didn’t matter. It didn’t matter because Danny’s smile was radiant and refilled and perfect, and it was right there. “would you fall in love with me again, my love?” The question slipped out without him, even thinking about it.

“I will fall in love with you over and over again.” Danny whispered their lips met and a kiss that was both weeks late and centuries late. 

[dclovesdanny]

Dead Quiet as reincarnations of Odysseus and Penelope

Cassandra was Odysseus and Danny was Penelope

Cassandra had always felt like she was different. In many ways, she was different. Many people were not assassin children who didn’t know how to speak until she was a teenager. Not many people fought crime. She was different but….. She knew her memories were different too.

The flashes she could see of people who she had never met, often came to her randomly. Once, it happened in the middle of a battle, and when she came back to herself, she had almost slaughtered the entire group. Luckily, this was before she went to stay with Bruce. Another time it was a flash of a man with kind eyes and the loving open smile before she flashed back to Dick, looking at her with a bit of confusion.

Sometimes, it was just certain words that made her feel wrong. Words like monster, ruthlessness, open arms. Each of those words provoked different reactions of grief and rage and self loathing.

Danny had always felt like he was different. In many ways, he had grown up differently too. Not many people were the kids of ghost hunters, or became half ghost. He was different, but… He knew his reactions to things were different

His instant revulsion to Vlad, even before he knew how much of a creep the guy was, wasn’t something he could explain. He couldn’t explain the home sickness he felt when he entered Pandora’s kingdom. 

(he never told anyone about the dreams of waiting for someone at a beach. About the dreams of longing and patience and pain. You never told anyone about how he would wake up, sometimes reaching for someone who wasn’t there.)

Danny was 17 when a new girl was introduced in school, a girl who use the name Cassandra Todd. Mr. Lancer introduced her to the class as the new student, and while everyone around him felt suspicious because new students didn’t come to Amity, all he could feel was the sense of longing and home and wanting.

Cassandra was 19 when she agreed to go undercover in Amity Park. It has been a media blackout zone within the past three years, and the justice league dark had informed everyone that it was a supernatural hotspot with some very dangerous things happening.

She had planned to infiltrate the school and look around. She hadn’t planned to see a boy sitting with two friends and to see longing and hope and love and home reflected in his body, or did she expect to feel the same thing in hers.

He stood up and approached her. She could see the suspicion and confusion and nervousness clear on the rest of the classes faces and bodies. However, all she could focus on was him.

He stood inches from her. His eyes met hers, and Cassandra felt a strange sense of peace and longing, but she kept quiet. She had to hear something first

The boy opened his mouth, his voice, barely a whisper.

“Is it you? Have my prayers been answered? Is it really you standing there or am I dreaming once more? his hand reached for her face, and she let herself fall into him.

“would you fall in love with me again?” Was all she managed to whisper before their lips met. Tears ran down her cheeks as she embraced the feeling of home. 

[dclovesdanny]

Dead on Main as reincarnations in of Odysseus and Penelope

Jason was Odysseus and Danny was Penelope

After Jason came back, he always felt like he was different. Not just in the way of pit, madness and rage, but his mind felt different. He would feel strong rage, sure, but he had never expected to feel nostalgia and protective grief when he saw a dick smile. He didn’t expect to feel a strange sense of both kinship and resentment towards Bruce.

(their last argument hit different in his mind after we came back. It came like an echo, and Jason tried to ignore how it didn’t just feel familiar in the way of memory, but it felt familiar in the way of déjà vu.)

After Danny died, a lot changed. His friends and jazz noticed the changes and were kind about them, always accommodating them. But some of the changes weren’t normal. Danny didn’t used to be so patient. The way he fond over Paulina faded. Jazz recommended that he take up a hobby to calm himself down, and instead of gardening or building things, he started weaving.

His weaving actually got pretty popular, and was one of the only things in school that no one teased him about. Dash Had made some comments in the beginning, but after he saw Danny make a tapestry depicting ember, the teasing stopped.

(The ghosts didn’t act very differently with him, but Amber teared up when he gave her the tapestry. Pandora had an odd reaction when they first met, a strange sense of trust in her eyes that he knew wasn’t just because he was kind.)

Danny didn’t know why his hatred of Vlad was so visceral. He didn’t know why looking at Danielle was so heartbreaking and beautiful. He didn’t know why he felt so intrinsically parental to her, or why he was so vehemently against Vlad getting near her. He didn’t know.

(He may not have known, but everyone noticed it. Everyone at school noticed the uncomfortableness whenever Vlad was close to him, they discussed and revision on his face and the way that once, after Vlad made a comment about winning his mother‘s hand, he flinched violently. They all noticed. And if Casper high became a no fly zone for Vlad, if all of the teachers made sure to be as unwelcoming as possible towards their mayor and all of the students knew to hide Danny Vlad was in the building? well, assumptions were made, and none of them were good. Even after Vlad was no longer mayor and they had all grown up, everyone knew to keep Vlad as far away from Danny as possible.)

Jason had gone to help infiltrate the Amity park situation, along with Constantine Tim, and one of the flashes. He hadn’t expected anything much, knowing he was only there to help make sure that the magic people, but that…. That changed after he saw phantom fighting Plasimius. After he heard the older ghost voice that was like nails on chalk telling phantom that they could be a family.

(Jason ignored how uncomfortably familiar that sounded. He ignored the flash of a memory of standing behind a pillar while the man threatened to TAKE HIS WIFE)

Jason wasn’t supposed to intervene but like hell he was leaving Phantom with this guy. So what if he had to steal some of Constantine’s stuff for it? The bastard needed to learn to have less pickable locks.

Death Defying as reincarnations of Orpheus and Eurydice

Dick was Orpheus and Danny was Eurydice

Dick had always had a sense of déjà vu in his life. It didn’t come up often, not often enough for him to be concerned, but… sometimes it hit him randomly.

A lot of it was reasonable. Watching Tim as Robin, seeing Bruce’s fights with Jason, all that made sense for the déjà vu. Sometimes though it didn’t make sense. He’d feel a strange sense of déjà vu when he heard wonder girl speak Greek. He’d feel a mixture of déjà vu and red whenever he needed to walk in front of someone and he was leading them there. He always was so scared to turn back around, as if they’d be gone if he looked.

The sense of déjà vu had never been this strong before, though. He was simply standing at a gala, trying to not lose his mind on any of these social lights when he spotted someone across the room. A boy who would’ve been adoption bait for Bruce if he was a few years younger. A breathtakingly, beautiful boy with dark hair and blue eyes, standing across the room. A boy he had been staring at for the past five minutes without realizing it.

Roy, who was standing next to him, elbowed him. “Dude, you need to stop staring and go over.” Tim moved over to him, clearly confused about what was going on to cause Dick to freeze.

“Who is that?” Dick couldn’t stop staring. The feeling of déjà vu was there, mixed with nostalgia and a strange breathtaking version of love. It was like a pole towards this man.

“That is Danny Fenton, the heir to Vlad Masters. Masters runs a security and technology business, but it’s moved more towards tech recently and it’s credited to Danny Fenton.” Tim rattled off the information, but Dick couldn’t focus.

Roy started to drag him over. “Come on, let’s go talk to him.” Tim grabbed his arm. “Just don’t come on too strong.” The words hit something in Dick’s brain, making them nostalgia and anticipation stronger.

They approached Danny. The boy turned to them, and Roy was talking, but Dick couldn’t pay attention. All he could do is look at that boys face. Those eyes drew him in, making something in him, feel weak. After a moment, he realized he was probably supposed to say something.

“Come home with me.” Dick’s mouth moved before his brain could catch up. He could vaguely hear Roy face palm, but all he was focused on was the boy in front of him, Danny. Danny smiled, amusement in his eyes and dick forgot how to breathe.

“Who are you?” Danny’s voice was sweet, and all of the déjà vu in the world wouldn’t have been able to make a dick feel anything but pure love at the sound of that voice.

“The man who’s gonna marry you.” Dick breathed. He was vaguely aware of how people were starting to stare at him, but all that mattered was Danny’s laugh as he spoke and the sparkle of amusement and love and recognition in those eyes. “l’m…. Dick Grayson.”

Danny laughed again, and somehow Dick just knew he would follow that laugh and that smile to the end of the earth.

Spirit Halloween as reincarnations of Orpheus and Eurydice

Danny was Orpheus and Bruce was Eurydice

The first time Danny died, he remembered something. As the electricity struck him, it felt almost like hands were ripping him apart. There was a strange sense of mournfulness and peace in his body, despite the fact that he was dying. There was also longing he didn’t understand.

The feeling faded when he fell out of the portal. He tried to ignore it.

(he tried to ignore how melodies that he had never heard before played in his head. He tried to ignore how terrified he was of snakes and the fear of venom.)

It was long after he had become ghosting when one of them mentioned that he was a second born. Question, clockwork, clockwork simply smiled, and sent him to Pandora

Bear, he learned that sometimes ghost chose to reincarnate after a while. They could be reborn, and it was rare for those souls to become ghosts. Only a few ever did. Danny was one of those few.

(you never told anyone about the nights that he woke up with a song on his lips. He didn’t sing it. He felt like he was waiting for something.)

Bruce had always had a strange fondness for music. Any music that he could hear someone sing, even if the singing was awful, made him smile. His kids picked up on the habit and always made sure to play music after rough patrols.

Press refused to let any of his children walk behind him. He always walked behind them, making sure they got to where they needed to be. Sometimes, when someone looked back at him, he would feel the sense of dread that he didn’t understand.

(he never mentioned how easily he could play old instruments, or how nostalgic Diana made him feel. Even though he had never met Diana before, sometimes when she spoke an ancient Greek, he felt a strange sense of nostalgia. He never told anyone how easy it was to learn ancient Greek.)

He figured out he was reincarnation after he came back from being lost in time. Constantine had to be grudgingly, looked him over for a magical residue, doing a full body scan that had never been done before. Constantine had pulled him aside and explained that he was something called a second born, which meant he was a reincarnation, and a very old one if the way Constantine reacted with any indication.

He didn’t think about that much after that until three years later. He had been kidnapped as Brucie Wayne by a cult and was being sacrificed to being called the ghost King. He had already broken free of most of his bonds, but it was too late.

A portal appeared and a man stepped out. He had strange, soft features, and a sense of reality. But that wasn’t what made Bruce freeze. No, what made him freeze was the sense of longing that hit him the moment he saw the man.

One of the ghost King turned to him it felt like time stopped. The ghost King, of being that took the form of a young man in his 30s, looked shocked and pleased. The ghost King approached and Bruce didn’t try to run away.

“ who are you?” Bruce whispered. The the ghost King’s response, made him leap from the table and throw himself into his love‘s arms. The words rang in the wide space as the cultist looked on in fear and Nightwing and Robin looked on in both confusion and rage.

“The man who’s gonna marry you again.”
