Au where Danny, whose timeline is an alternate version of Dan's timeline. Instead of Vlad, he's taken in by...Bruce Wayne? What the fuck do you mean his uncle is fucking Bruce Wayne???)??????

While Danny is having the existential crisis of his life, Clockwork is giving very specific instructions to Danny's rogues to make sure the boy doesn't sway to the same person Dan was. Of course, he should've known better.

Unsurprisingly, threatening Batman was a bad idea; since now the Justice League is in high alert ever since they found out this entity named 'Phantom' is supposedly the difference between the end of the world and peace.

I hope more people can introduce phantom as this like— High and mighty ghost that quite literally bested God in their fics, but also emphasize the fact that he's still a child. And behind all the regalia of the title he has, he's still a very tired, scared, and spiteful teenager that hides the way his hands shake at the present of another person who he doesn't know will turn into a friend or foe.

Guys hear me out League scientist Danny please hear me out plea—

Okya so different direction: where Danny's this sort of cryptic person in the league where no one knows his origins but they think he's powerful enough since Ra's hasn't killed him for his misdemeanors. What kind of misdemeanors, you may ask? Well, the guy's supposedly there to 'purify' the pit for Ra's but he NEVER has any kind of documentation with him.

People would ask why or accuse him of not being loyal to the league and his response? He'll either stare at you like you said the stupidest shit he's ever heard or dismiss you with "Whatever I do with MY knowledge stays with ME."

You'd be lucky if Ra's doesn't order your death for your misdemeanors towards him.

Back to the main point; Damian is born, and upon meeting the innocence of man when they were first born Danny has a very short existential crisis because damn why is he even doing all of this. But he doesn't express his new found distress and instead insists on taking care of Damian because "He's the future of the League" And you know what? He's doing a pretty damn good job at it.

Cut through a few years and for SOME reason the old man revived a teen. What's that? He has the same father as Damian? Oh. That could work in his favor, actually. "I need a test subject. Hand over the boy." A brief argument, but Ra's handed him over nonetheless.

Aaaaand the boy is gone. It's fine— he was due to be handed back to Bruce Wayne, anyways. Now he just needs to convince Talia....

Trigger-happy!Danny, anyone?

Tw: offing ppl

Back to my indifferent to murder Danny agenda :D Imagine the GIW prying into Gotham when Danny's already happy there and now he's just there,,expressing his distaste :]

...so now batfam has an unsolved strings of murders involving people in white coats that presumably works for a government branch that goes AGAINST the Meta Protection acts that has no trace whatsoever.

(Fright knight has been cleaning up after his teenage king for a while now.)

Mb pokie here are the main ones 😔 (the rest are just short, untagged rambles)

Danny gone coocoo

(Implied ATTEMPTED $ui**de, open ending, viewers discretion advice)

Oblivious Inventor x Somewhat Obvious Vigilantees

No warnings! Just silly little drabble that had fun reblogs :D!!

Sorry for writing a lot of Mad Scientist!Danny stuff lately hon. I just think the concept of Batman literally having a mad scientist of a ward with no questions asked whatsoever was funny lmao

Letting this out of my system before I fall asleep;

Danny developing D.I.D. because yk what. Basically there's 3 (or 4 if it's a Danny/Damian siblings AU) with one being the host aka Danny, one being the protector aka Phantom, one being the Persecutor aka Daniel (and if it's a siblings au one is the gatekeeper aka Abidan/Danyal depends on which you prefer)

Adopted Wayne au again, yes, except: Danny doesn't know he has DID. He just thinks that after he died his memories are blotched, even after doing something he sometimes doesn't realize he's doing it. Cue Danny overthinking stuff one day while talking to his adopted siblings about how he's not sure if they could come to understand him even though he doesn't understand himself (very weird thing to say, huh?) But they reassure him that they're all doing their best and he needs to give himself a break.

BUT the catch; they don't know each other's double life. Danny doesn't want to be a vigilante— he doesn't want them to KNOW he was a vigilante. Batfamily isn't spilling their night endeavors with the normal child in the family that grimaces everytime they 'discuss' about heroes.

ANOTHER CATCH: Danny is the only one that doesn't know the Waynes are the bats and birds. His alters though, does. Daniel and Phantom isn't too pleased about ANOTHER rich man. Cue Phantom antagonizing Batfamily, saying that if something were to happen to Danny he would just take him away (considering they don't even know what Phantom is, safe to say they're paranoid)

Sorry, I listened to me and the devil for like an hour straight and this suddenly popped out. Also I just think it's funny how Danny and Waynes all civil and basically caring for each other and then night turns, Bats and Birds ready to bash fists with Phantom.

On another note, I'd like to push the emphasis that Danny is constantly missing his memories in this concept. For reference, imagine Duke walking up to him in the Kitchen (Daniel was about to make coffee) and greeted him. Danny just spaced out for a while, blinked, look at what he's holding, and blurt "what am I doing again...?"

As you've might guessed, Alfred was the one who found out first.

Can someone write unhinged DeadSerious where Danny was a Lazarus pit scientist in the league that was courted to Damian before he got assassinated (oh the irony) and eventually brought himself back to life by accident via said Lazarus pit (surprise surprise) so he fled and years later Dami found him attending Gotham U (albeit without memories) and now is just dead set (aha) on kidnapping him and keeping him to himself I promise I'll make an art for it (I have a vision >:[)

[medusas-graveyard]

Guys imagine monarch Danny who has this Beelzebub (HB) Esque personality and one day the JL has something they need to do that deals with Lazarus water/ectoplasmic entities in general and JL dark is there like; "oh we should get the ghost king's blessings first" And. And they fucking summoned Danny and he's there like

"I beg your fucking pardon you want my w h a t ?"

[medusas-graveyard]

The concept of adoptee (retired) Danny is funny because imagine if the person who is infamous for paranoia adopted an eldritch abomination who he treats like a wet cat

[medusas-graveyard]

Adopted au except Danny's the new (pretty harmless) addition to the rouge gallery, ignoring the whole Lazarus water shebang he has goiing on.

+They do not know each other's identity.

[medusas-graveyard]

Can I have like,, an au where Danny & Damian knew each other while they were tiny kids (whether or not they're brothers or if Danny was like. A kid from one of Raa's servants) where, while Damian is now a better version of himself, Danny has fallen from grace.

Picture; Danny that isn't as op but concerningly smart????? Mad scientist Danny? Mad scientist Danny. Who've been betrayed for too long so now he just... Snaps.

(TW: IMPLIED SUICIDE. CONTINUE WITH CAUTION.)

Gone was the scared teenager that went through loss after loss, after loss. The teenager that was betrayed by the people he served and the 'parents' that took him in, the boy who lost everything. Now, as he stood beside his creation— the one who will end the world itself, Danny is eerily calm, as he looked at Damian that stood across him with a gentle, soft smile. There's acceptance in that smile of his; and he couldn't help but reel on how they both can still change.

But Danny—the sweet, sweet boy that he once knew, simply chuckled and shook his head.

"And this world is merely a dot in the vast universe. Then, our souls will wonder about the vast stars, isn't it beautiful?"

"Bshoufak, Dami." He smiles, "when Time will inevitably reconstruct this universe to a new one, and taking us with it—"

"—I hope, fate will be kinder to the both of us."

The latter!!!

Detached from humanity! Danny where he's been in the realms for so long his humanity is non-existent. Cue finding his new play thing (the JL) and him just observing them like a kid observing an ant colony. He's curious as to why they're so determined to save the world and why they're so... Kind. And without a hidden reason, too.

So logically he masquerades as a child in distress out of curiosity (he just wanna feel human again)

Retired hero & current (almost) mad scientist/engineer Daniel James Wayne where he's absolutely oblivious. And I mean that in a batfam knows everything about him but Danny? Has not pulled the dots together.

Danny "Oh yeah my family's a bit weird and I could smell lingering death on them but that's pretty much it what's wrong with it?" Wayne.

Danny who is allowed to do anything as he please and coming to Bruce just giving him new inventions, ghost related or not, and flatly asking weather or not it was possible to give it to Batman to test.

[medusas-graveyard]

Danny keeping blood blossoms in his place for ghost repellent even though it hurts himself in the process and everyone around him proceeds to call him an idiot

[medusas-graveyard]

Danny, very clearly distressed but overall fine: I'm okay! It's just an allergic reactio—

Harvey: your honor this child will NOT stay with these lunatics.

Saw a short from YouTube on that animated scene of Harvey getting splashed by acid and there will be no "hear me out" On this one. You will listen.

Court case: Fentons vs Bruce Wayne on who gets to keep Danny after Bruce finds out about the... Things they did to Danny. Fenton's Defense? a ghost is in their son's skin. Clearly bullshit, right?

Well unfortunately the Fenton's didn't think so.

In true Harvey Dent fashion, they splash the kid's face with blood blossoms concentrated water and Bruce gets PTSD 2.0

Bonus if Harvey was somehow the lawyer💀
