Your Husband Is A What?
Damian/Duke is trapped in a weapon (like one of those cool big ass anime swords) and it's up to Danny to get him back to normal.
Travelling back to the past seemed fun but unfortunately all the other heroes think he's a little crazy, and yes, he may have a few screws loose but his husband really is trapped in this weapon damnit.
_______
How they met could be made into a book with the title Love At First Fight, because that's exactly how they met each other.
Danny had taken a route that was basically a dark alley, so there really wasn't no surprise when a couple of guys tried to rob him. Well, Danny was not one to back down and with a trusty steel pipe he found right next to the dumpster he began taking them down.
In the aftermath Danny's jeans had become ripped jeans but he wasn't sure if they could be considered proper clothing to wear anymore, which pissed him off so he got one more hit in with the steel pipe to the nearest man next to him.
Footsteps as light as they were still alerted Danny to one more thief in his vicinity. Without much hesitation he turned swiftly and dashed towards his opponent. Steel meet steel as his attacker counteracted his attack with a weapon of their own. Danny still had powers though, so using a bit more strength he sent the other's weapon flying in another direction, giving him the opportunity to strike.
He didn't know when he lost his own weapon but somehow him and his attacker were now fist fighting on the floor. It was only after the adreneline had calmed down somewhat that Danny was able to see he was fighting one of Gotham's heroes.
Quickly separating himself from the hero he profusely apologised before dashing off to deal with the action of beating up one of his favorite heroes.
What followed afterwards were a series of events that always ended up with the two meeting each other and engaging in a 'battle' of sorts. One thing led to another and for some reason they ended up kissing in the same dark alley they first met, away from any prying eyes. After that night things changed significantly.
Danny always knew the indentity of the one that became his love because of the otherness he could feel beneath their skin that reminded him of himself and eventually he told them about Phantom.
It took a lot more meet ups in secret before they were finally comfortable enough to officially meet each other's family and it had gone a lot better than they were expecting.
Sometimes they would help each other out on missions and this time was no different. They were dealing with another crazy magician who thought he could take over the world by using the power of an ancient deity. They managed to stop him but before he could be detained he fired of one more spell that trapped his boyfriend in his weapon and used some sort or artifact to send them careening through a portal.
Luckily for them they ended up with the JL, unluckily for them no one seems to know who they are.
____________
Flash: Are we sure he should be in the watchtower?
Black Canary: He's not doing anything bad, look at him.
Phantom using his lover as a swing: ^o^
Green Arrow: He thinks that's his husband trapped in there.
Black Canary: He could be.
Flash: How old is he anyways, he looks too young to be married.
Superman: C'mon everyone let's not talk about him while he's right there.
Greenlantern: Look at him! Does it looks like he cares?
Phantom still using his lover as a swing: ( ≧ᗜ≦)
Superman: It's still rude.
____________
Based slightly off of Aba from Guilty Gear.
I imagine Danny pulling a Sayaka (from Madoka Magica) and stabbing the sword through him for a power-up and everyone panics for a hot minute before realizing he's fine.

"Don't Worry, I Got This." (Duke Thomas Drabble)

Every time you came to see your brother, it seemed like Bruce had taken another young ward under his wing. This time was no exception. As you emerged from the shadows of the Batcave, Dick and Tim didn’t seem to notice you, but the third vigilante in the yellow and black suit spotted you immediately.
“Guys, intruder! Don’t worry I got this.” Pulling out a pair of Eskrima sticks, he charged at you.
Dick looked up and saw what he was talking about. “Duke, wait!”
But the young man didn’t seem to hear him. Just as he reached you, you ducked out of the way, landing a hard kick to his side. He stumbled back with a grunt but was on you again in seconds. Round and round the two of you went. You continued to push him away and give him light strikes, but in return, he actually managed to get close to landing a blow or two of his own. And every time you would knock him down, he would be back up and at you in seconds. Impressed with his skills and persistence, you decided to put him out of his misery. You grabbed his arm and quickly flipped him over your shoulder before pinning him to the floor with your foot. He stared up at you, wide-eyed, as he waited to see what you would do next.
“Not bad. Not bad at all.” Removing your foot from his chest, you walked over to the other two men. “Grayson. Drake. It has been a while.”
Duke rolled over to his knees and looked back and forth between the three of you. “Um, is anyone going to tell me what’s going on?”
“Duke, this is Damian’s older sister. She works for the League of Assassins and has a habit of stopping by unannounced.” Dick shot you a pointed glance.
Duke stared at you dumbfounded. “Seriously? Nobody thought to share the fact Damian has an assassin older sister who drops by every once and a while. That seems like something I should have known.”
“She prefers it this way. Calls it a trial by combat introduction or something like that.” Tim said with a shrug and a roll of his eyes.
Ignoring his sass, you nod. “Yes. I like to assess the skills and abilities of those working with my brother. I need to know they are worthy associates.”
“Oh,” Duke mumbled softly. “So, I guess I failed.”
“Quite the contrary. You handled yourself remarkably well. I never expect my opponent to actually defeat me, but you did better than either of those two did. And they fought me at the same time.”
“Hey!” Dick and Tim both yelled at the same time as Duke gave you a big smile.
