Halloween is coming!!!!

[joey-dragon]

✨️CUTE✨️

went a little out of my comfort zone for this assignment cause I wanted to practice lighting/rendering/environments

[joey-dragon]

Here's the thing though like you said Arkham is a revolving door to most villains and the Joker isn't usually there for too long and this time he's contained in the thermos which I feel like all the bat kids are going to be in team "keep him in that fucking thermos for all that is Holy" so that hole that usually would just have him missing for a bit would be unable to be plugged back in with him because he would just generally be gone if Danny exercises him or keeps him in the thermos

It honestly kind of inspires me to want to write a fanfiction about this

The Joker is Dead (and always has been)

Danny is attending Gotham U and gets caught up in a Joker escapade and realizes the clown is, in fact, a ghost.

Suddenly everything makes an insane amount of sense: the fact that no one has killed a psycho with seemingly human-normal abilities yet, that Arkham can’t keep him for more than a week, the obsessive behavior, the appearance.

Honestly, Danny should have clocked this before he even met the spook.

And Danny doesn’t want to step on any toes, really. The Bat and the Joker have A Thing going on. But, the Batman just isn’t equipped to really put a ghost away. No wonder there’s a breakout from Arkham every couple of months. How many other Gotham rogues are obsessive ghosts haunting the city?

Joker doesn’t display any of the usual ghost powers he associates with his own “rogues”—who’ve really become more like unwanted relatives over the years what with their dropping in uninvited, making a mess, and then ditching before they had to help clean.

It strikes Danny, as he’s being tied up by the clown-costumed goons, that maybe the Joker doesn’t know.

Huh.

How does he broach the topic in a sensitive way?

“Hey, uh. Not to be rude but… You know you’re dead, right?”

Danny winces. Not like that, probably.

The Clown Prince of Crime stops in front of him, the crazed light in his eyes dimmed slightly by confusion. He glances back and forth between Danny and the students around him who are shying away from their insane classmate. (Which is. Fair.)

A menacing giggle warbles from the specter’s throat. He leans into Danny’s bubble, that eerie grin stretching somehow wider.

“Ohhhh really?” The clown draws it out and Danny can hear the crackle of static in the high notes. Honestly. How did no one figure this out before? “And are you gonna kill me, hmm? Have I got a widdle hero in my bait tank?”

“No, no, I mean, it’s not… you’re not… like? You’re not alive,” Danny rambles, trying to clarify and failing utterly. “You’re already dead.”

The Joker tilts his head, eyes dilating and glowing toxic green. He considers what Danny said, then throws his head back and cackles like a hyena.

The ghost doubles over, even, laughing so hard it sounds like he’s gonna bust something. He puts a white-gloved hand on Danny’s shoulder for support and squeezes, just shy of hurting.

After an uncomfortably long moment, the ghost wipes imaginary tears out of his eyes and pats Danny on the back so hard he stumbles and falls to his knee.

“You’re a riot, kid! If I didn’t have a date already planned…”

He trails off and ambles away, still chuckling and muttering to himself. “And they say I’m crazy! Wait til Bats hears about this!”

Danny watches him go, despondent.

It’s always harder when they don’t know.

This is gonna be a mess.

Every time i’ve had to replant anything with serious roots and shake the dirt out i just can’t unsee the parallel

[joey-dragon]

No here's the thing I mean all Criminal societies have almost an ecosystem they have levels to the bad guys so when one falls down that leaves an open spot and and it causes the crime ecosystem to start to collapse because there's a key component right there that's missing and so everyone underneath is going to be clamoring and fighting to take over that position and when the Joker is one of the more dangerous crazy homicidal maniacs in the ecosystem

the interfining and the reshuffling of everything would cause lots of fighting which would instigate gang wars and those gang wars happen because somebody in the upper ranks is gone and now everyone else is fighting to take over that spot

Why do I feel like this would work? the whole magic trick thing on the Joker I think that would work honestly?

Then when you consider the bats and the birds appeared not long after Danny had that conversation with the joker

I'm kind of curious on how they would react to seeing the jokeer be proved to be dead already

And it's already been stated that Batman has like this weird yin yang kind of thing going on with the joker in a lot of the comics

So I'm very curious on how a missing villain of Gotham crime ecosystem affects the rest of it

And to think that it takes very little to make a child happy....

[joey-dragon]

This is now my favorite🤣😂

Alfred: Who is this?

Seven year old Bruce: His name is Danny. He's my older brother

Alfred: You're an only child. You don't have a brother.

Bruce: Mom? Dad? Do I have a brother?

Thomas: I only ever loved your mother, and I find baby-making repulsive—no offense, Brucie—so biologically, no, you don't have a brother. Emotionally, on the other hand, if you feel like he is your brother, I don't mind calling him my son. It's not like I can't afford it, nor can this lad outrun me.

Alfred: That's... kidnaping, sir.

Martha: Oh don't be so uptight Alfred. You Brits worrry about the sillist of things.

Alfred: Silly thing? You mean the law!?

Martha: Yes, that's a pesky thing. Besides, he has my eyes and Thomas' nose! That's obviously our son.

Bruce considering Danny: He does have your nose, dad.

Thomas proud: A chip off the old block that one. Good job catching your brother Brucie.

Bruce: Thank you! I used my innocent face like you said, Mom!

Martha beaming: A pretty face is a valuable weapon, darling!

Alfred whispering to Danny: Blink four times if you want me to get you out of here. The Waynes are not entirely sane.

Danny:..... The kid just said he needed someone to walk him home cause he was lost.

Alfred: That's how they get you. I once offered Master Thomas my coat during a suprise downpour. That was four years ago, and now I'm a butler. He gave me an embroidered apron with the words, "You're mine now, Brit"

Hands~

It’s an excerpt from a story I’m doing that holds a fair amount of importance due to foreshadowing and reminders of ‘past’ experiences. :D

Small about is that the predator is in a strong glass (think like bullet proof but predator proof.) while the child is outside but just as captured/trapped.

[joey-dragon]

Hmmmm suspicious 🤨

This shall be reblogged for science!!

(Reblog)

WAIT! HUH! HOW! 🫢

#I didn't know what the name of the job was as a kid

#so instead of saying something you know normal

#I said I want to be the one that plays with the deads

# coroner / forensic anthropologist

#that's that's what I was thinking of I just didn't know the words as a kid

[joey-dragon]

All I need is for someone to gently cup my face and tell me I'm not as doomed as I feel.

Pre-GIW disbandment

Dick: Where's Danny?

Alfred: Young master Danny has requested more time to rest and will be joining us quite later.

Damian: (stabbing food) Tt. He acts like the most fatigued person here.

Danny: (Walking in half asleep) Because convincing gods to not scorch this planet down to the fucking sun is, Dames. Let me off.

All i wanna do is be sweet to someone life is already hard

DP x DC prompt [4]

It is known in the Justice league that Phantom’s mentor in the Infinite Realms is a very powerful time deity.

What that means for them is that sometimes that mentor sends Phantom on time related missions.

More often than not these turn out to be simple fetch quests, but sometimes they can get a little more complicated. 

And to mostly Batman’s frustration, they don’t really know that’s the case until after the fact.

The other thing is that Phantom knows the Flashes quite well, and not always in a positive way. but that’s not the point right now.

Right now the problem is that Phantom apparently said something Green Lantern was about to say before he said it. Their hearts drop as his moves look rather rehearsed, questions are answered before they get properly asked, he knows who comes into the room and when, and who is going to go where and overall he just looks… tired.

It’s then that most of them have figured out they are about to start a day Phantom has been redoing far too many times.

Danny also walked up to Superman and slapped his sandwich out of his hand and said “don’t eat that” and Superman is thinking, “what did that sandwich do to me?” but this was actually not time related. Danny just wanted to mess with the guy.
