Anyone else want more Damiraenette content?

Dick live streaming or something on Tiktok to keep up the appearance of not being the Batfam.

Tim drinking an unholy amount of coffee and gaining a lot of respect from college students. Shows them the library and makes small talk with Duke who was there.

Pretends Jason is not there in the corner to troll people into thinking that he is a ghost. Cass doing a short ballet show. You know the Wayne Family’s daily life.

He comments on how Damian is not awake yet which was unusual for him.

So being a big brother, he goes into Damian’s room without knocking to wake him up. Only to find topless Damian sleeping next to Raven in his bed. Damian woke up to Dick’s loud greeting.

#

“GRAYSON, GET THE FUCK OUT.”

“Sorry, lil’D, didn’t know that you had company over. So that’s what those noises from last night were.”

#

The chat is absolutely going crazy at this point.

Damian picked up a pillow to throw at Dick.

Then, Marinette sat up from the other side of Damian, half-asleep and wearing one of Damian’s signature black shirts. She yelled, “I am up. I am up.”

She then sees a shocked Dick.

“Go away, Dick,” she said and pulled Damian down to cuddle.

 Dick closed the door before the pillow Damian threw could hit him

Suffice to say, #likefatherlikeson and #PlayboyIcePrince was trending on Gotham twitter for a while.

Until Damian said in an ‘interview’ that he was in a polymorous relationship with both of them and would kill sue the hell out of anyone who dared to call his girlfriends harlots and other degrading names.

No one ever dares to bring up his relationship ever again.

—---

Raven gets taken to Hell by her father, Trigon.

Marinette is friends with a few demons who know about her relationship with Raven.

So those demons were all too willing to spill the beans about Trigon’s big plans when she came knocking on their doors in fury and a deadly former assassin by her side, asking about where their girlfriend was.

Trigon is talking to Raven about how she was going to be used in his latest plan to take over the world.

Meanwhile, his front door is knocked down/ blown open by one Marinette Dupain-Cheng in her signature red coat.

Trigon grinned as he felt the intruder in his domain, “Well, looks like that Constantine girl of yours came to rescue you. I am going to have so much fun, ripping her head off in front of you.”

“No. Don’t hurt her.” Raven cried as she struggled against her bonds.

“Be patient, dear daughter. You will meet her soon. Maybe with less of her than you remembered.” Trigon vanished with a laugh.

“NO! NO! NO! FATHER!!!” Raven screamed after him.

Marinette is thrashing Trigon’s minions, using every Miraculous she has and every trick she knows when Trigon shows up.

“You are rather good. For a mortal.”

“Why. Thank you.” Marinette cheerily replied while sticking a paper talisman to a demon’s face. Her tired body struggling to keep up against the horde of demons told a different story.

“Well, let me put you out of your misery, pest.” Trigon said as he threw a bolt of lightning at her.

She expertly dodged it and it hit another demon instead. She grinned at him, “I will also take that as a compliment.”

“You are just a foolish child. What makes you think you can defeat me?”

“And you are a piece of shit who just got awarded the worst father of the century.” Marinette retorted before grabbing the demon who was coming behind her, “Of course, I can defeat you. With the power of love. And a shit ton of firepower.”

She sat the demon she was holding on fire and threw it at Trigon

Trigon just batted it away.

Battle continued for a few minutes. Marinette was feeling the effect of using all the Miraculous in her possession. 

“Hah. Give up. It’s only a matter of time before you lose. You are already weakened by the overuse of the Miraculouses.”

Marinette just gave him a smile. She stood where she was and smiled. And it wasn’t just a smile. It was a familiar Constantine smirk that said ‘Shit is about to blow’.

Then, the room they were in started shaking.

“What did you do?”

“I am just the distraction, Trigon.” Her smirk widened into a grin as Raven in rage mode burst into the room. “And you forgot that me and Raven have a wonderful boyfriend.”

Damian showed up besides with a few Miraculous of his own.

Fade to black as Trigon gets his ass kicked by his daughter and her two partners.

-Little Cut scene-

John is just chilling at a bar when the bartender gets possessed by Gowther.

“What do you want?”

“Do you know that your spawn is in hell?”

“I am aware she takes unsupervised visits from time to time but it’s not like I can stop her. She’s too bloody stubborn to let something like being grounded stop her.”

“Yeah, about that. She just lost her shit and is basically going to war against Trigon to get her girlfriend back.”

“She’s WHAT?”

“Thought you might appreciate knowing.”

“You just love being a snitch to get her in trouble since she beat you in every video game.”

“That too.” Gowther cheerfully agreed.

“She’s in bloody trouble, alright. I am telling her mother.”

“Ooooh. Calling in the big guns, are you?”

“Now, shoo before I bring out the Latin and the holy water. I have a child to go save from her own stupidity.”

Bartender put his hands up in surrender. “Okay, John.” Black eyes disappear as the eyes roll to the back of the body’s head.

John leaves a few bills as he went to make a call to Chas.

--- That following summer... ---

Marinette was face down on the couch as her dad stood in the middle of the living room, shirtless and painting some concoction on himself for a ritual.

Marinette groaned for the nth time that day.

John took that as his cue to finally ask what was wrong, “Sweetheart, what are you doing here?”

Marinette slightly turned her face towards him so her voice wasn't muffled.

“Hawkmoth is being a bitch again.”

“Why haven’t you stopped him then? You already know who he is. Get the cops. Knock down his door and arrest him then.”

“You know why. It’s just circumstantial evidence on my part.”

“You don’t have to find a cure for his wife, you know. Take the matter into your own hands if you don’t want cops involved.”

“I am trying to save Emilie for multiple reasons and top of the list is to make sure Adrien has at least one parent when this whole mess is over.”

“I know he is your nemesis’s son but why do you care so much about him?”

“Because he is also Chat Noir.”

John stopped what he was doing. “Say what now?”

Marinette realised that she had given her father more ammo to complain about Master Fu.

“Are you telling me that the old fool gave one of the most important Miraculous to the Butterfly Man’s own son?!”

“To be fair, before he got taken away by the Order, I didn’t know for sure that Hawkmoth was Chat Noir’s dad.”

“How come I didn't know about this until now?!”

“I thought you knew.”

“All you told me was that he was a boy in your class!” John sighed. “Fine. Anything else I need to know about?”

“Nothing I can think of.”

“Then, why are you still here? I have to finish painting over my body for the cleansing ritual and I can’t do that with you around.”

“I am bored. My friends are either out of town or busy with their own thing. Damian and Raven are on that Teen Titans mission in the next galaxy for 10 days. And I hit a dead end on the cure.”

“Then go to hell or something. I am sure you can find something to entertain yourself with down there. That’s what I would do.”

John went back to painting before he realised what he had done when it had gotten too quiet.

He looked up to see his daughter gone from the couch.

He hesitated before deciding that his daughter is a more responsible person than he was and probably won’t get into much trouble.

That was his mistake.

-----5 days later....-----

John was at a Justice League meeting when his phone rang.

The number was 666 which was worrisome because it was Lucifer’s number.

It wouldn’t shut even when he took the battery out.

“Constantine, turn off your phone.” Batman ordered.

“Look, mate, I am trying but the bloody Devil is calling me.” John showed his phone battery out of the phone and the screen that is still showing 666. “He will probably keep ringing until I answer.”

“Then, do it.”

“Hello, your Majesty. Can you hurry up on what you need? Because I am in the middle of something here.” John answered.

“Ah. Constantine Senior. You finally picked up.” Lucifer’s smooth baritone is heard by everyone in the conference room, “You already know who I am so I will keep this short.”

“What do you want?”

“I am calling on behalf of Hell to tell you to come pick your daughter up.”

“What?”

“Your daughter, Lady Rouge. She refuses to give me her name. She is currently in my castle dungeons although I am not sure how long that will be true. She has caused quite a bit of trouble in my realm and well, my subjects are not happy.”

“What did she do?” John sighed, already feeling a headache and dread at what his daughter had done. Damn, he was beginning to understand why Batman sighed so much when his kids are mentioned.

There was a bit of paper rustling from his end. “Oh my me. There is quite a list of complaints but from the paper I am reading from. The gist is that your hellspawn had made a deal with a lot of demons.” Lucifer seemed to be suppressing his laughter.

“She appeared to have found a way to abuse each of those deals and made a deal with another demon to take her place in the deal. There are quite a few loops. Unless the perfect conditions are fulfilled, every demon is stuck trying to hold up their end of the deal. There is an UNO game made up of at least 20 demons and counting that is never going to end because they all made a deal that the game wouldn’t end unless a red Zero is placed down and she appeared have given all of the red zero cards to Mammon who is tasked to guard it with his life unless someone manages to get all the golden bust of the Founding fathers of the United States and exchange them for the cards. Except Alexander Hamilton is being moved every hour and George Washington is part of a prize pool for a Super Smash Bro Tournament where Gowther has to win every game and when he wins the tournament restarts. You get the idea.”

“Can’t they just… stop?”

“They could stop but they would lose the souls they all had collected till now. You know how prideful demons are. At least one third of the demon population is stuck in what they are now calling the Ouroboros deal and the soul stock market crashed 3 times since she arrived. Once literally.”

(Ouroboros is that symbol of the snake eating its own tail. The above idea is from @writing-prompts and I will link that post when I find it.)

John was quiet for a minute and said, “Please tell me that’s it.”

Lucifer laughed. The bastard. “Sorry, Constantine. That would be a lie and you know I don’t lie.”

John groaned. It had been five days since he last saw Marinette. Since Hell ran on a different time, 5 days could be either 5 weeks or 50 years in Hell’s time. Fuck, even Batman was giving him a look of pity. A few other Leaguers had gotten popcorn to watch his hair turn grey in real time.

 “What else?”

“Let’s see. Trigon’s territory is a bit of a mess now but he can’t do anything because most of his minions are part of the Ouroboros deal. There is a pack of hellhounds and wild animals loose in Dis. Your daughter was caught five times and escaped each time. She was last caught because she was waiting in line for boba tea.”

John took a moment to use those calming breathing techniques he heard worked. “You sound too happy for a monarch whose realm got thrown into chaos.”

“This is the most entertained I have been in years. And I also scheduled a vacation in LA for the next year or so. Plenty of time for Beelzebub to get it right. I can always extend my vacation if Hell still isn’t fixed by then.”

“So why are you calling me?”

“Your daughter made a deal with me to get her out of Hell in one piece, mentally unscarred and soul intact in exchange for information on how to break the Ouroboros deal. She is quite the evil mastermind.”

“I suppose it’s not going to be easy and very beneficial for her.”

“The conditions are either to make Emilie Agreste wake up again or make sure Gabriel Agreste isn’t allowed to send out any akumas or amok for 5 years. The problem is that the demon she made this deal to had a third condition to fulfil and because they chose to do the third, the entire Ouroboros deal started.”

“Oh no. What was the third condition?”

“To disguise themselves as any inanimate object. Change location and appearance once every twelve hours and not be found for 10 years in Earth’s time. If they get found, they have to fufil one of the other conditions. If they succeed any of the conditions, they would get a soul from her. The best bit is that it’s not hers.”

“Whose soul did she put down for all this trouble?”

“A girl named Chloe Bourgeosis apparently. Apparently, the demon bought the lie that it was her real name. Essentailly she is inconveniencing nearly half of Hell unless they solve her pest problem or they are stuck in a loop for the next 10 years. And all we would get out of it is some bratty girl’s soul. You see, not everyone is happy with her right now.”

“I reckon. I am coming over as soon as my business up here is done.”

“Sure. But make it fast. Trigon is first in line for her head.”

John put the phone away and turned to Zatanna. “Bottle of the strongest whiskey you can summon.”

She gave him a sympathethic smile and handed him a glass of water. Traitor.

—

Marinette is at the Mystery House to do something and sipping coffee since she didn’t get much sleep last night due to an akuma. She wasn’t paying any attention to her surroundings, too tired to register and walking past the dark haired boy who was nervously sitting on the couch in the living room.

A moment later, she realised that there’s a kid in the house of Mystery.

She backtracked and the kid was now trying to avoid her gaze.

Marinette slapped herself, much to the boy’s confusion, and muttered, “It’s not a dream then.”

The boy nervously looked at her and said, “hey…?”

Marinette blinked and realised that she was supposed to say something.

“Bonjour. I mean, hi. I am Marinette. Sorry, it’s just that we don't get many visitors at the house. Who aren’t demons or other non-human entities. Especially kids cause Dad’s bad around them. And I am a little tired right now and I am babbling like a moron. So what’s your name?”

“Um…”,he hesitated but less apprehensive than before.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me. Fae rules are like that. Are you okay with me calling you kid instead? Or do you prefer something else?”

“No, it’s okay. I am Billy. Billy Batson. It’s just weird since I didn’t think that anyone else lives here besides Mr. Constantine.”

“I don’t. I just pop in from time to time.”

“Oh…But um…how do you know Mr. Constantine?”

“He’s my Dad.”

“He’s married?”

Marinette snorted, “Hell no. I am a product of a one-night stand. My mom and him had a friends-with-benefits kinda deal. My mom is married to someone else. They run a bakery together.”

“I didn’t think that he would be someone’s dad.” Billy said. “He looks so… irresponsible.”

Marinette snorted, “I know, right? He doesn’t strike people like a father figure. So, Billy, what brings you here to this House of Mystery.”

“He’s Captain Marvel.” John’s voice came from the side room and there were sounds of him moving stuff to find something.

“Who?”

“You know, the World’s Mightiest Mortal. Champion of Magic.” Billy explained, finding it weird introducing himself like that.

“Oh. Shazam’s successor. The asshole finally picked someone.” Marinette said.

“You knew the Wizard?”

“I met him once. Wu Kong made a wrong turn and we landed on the Rock of Eternity. Man, it was even more awkward when Tikki came out and basically threw hands with the guy.”

“Who’s Tikki?”

Said Kwami came out from her hiding place in Marinette’s pocket. “Hi, my name is Tikki and I am a kwami. I give Marinette her powers to become Lady Rouge.”

“Isn’t Lady Rouge that Parisian hero that made Green Lantern cry?”

“It wasn’t me. Well, it was partly my fault but having both Wonder Woman and Batman being angry at you would be terrifying for anyone.”  Marinette tapped Tikki’s head. “And Tikki, never seen you this excited to reveal my identity to someone?”

“Marinette, I have to make a good impression on the new Champion. It was a tragedy what happened to the old one.”

“You know about Black Adam?” Billy asked

“Yes. His story is quite a sad one. Teth-Adam was a great Champion and fought alongside one of my holders. Shazam locked him away over a misunderstanding.”

“Ah yes. The classic old tale about foolish old men who dump all of their responsibility on children and can’t even give simple guidance and talk in the vaguest riddles like they know everything because they have lived for so long. I know that Shazam had died but I thought he would have the common sense to have his Champion be someone older.”

“I can take care of myself. I know what I am doing.”

“Billy. I am sure you can but you shouldn’t have too. Those old men were just cowards, afraid of the consequences of their actions, covering up their mistakes as best as they could and when it finally came back to bite them in the ass. They put the task of cleaning up their messes on us. We would have lived normal lives and never have to see the horrors we have seen or make the hard decisions at such a young age when we should have been having fun.”

“Oh. I never thought it was like that. Being Captain Marvel made me believe that someone like me who is just a nobody that I can save the world.”

“You aren’t wrong for thinking like that. Having powers is cool and I have taken that for granted before I got Tikki. You are a better person than me, Billy Batson. But still it was wrong of them to give us the tools that would be bad in the wrong hands and have us fight their war for them.”

“Who was your wizard?”

Marinette laughed before answering Billy, “Have you ever heard of the Miraculous before?”

“A little.”

“Well,...” Marinette told Billy about the situation in Paris and Master Fu.

The two talked about their respective hero work and bond while John searched for whatever he needed to help Billy.

Marinette gave Billy a card with her number and told him to call her if he ever needs help.

“I will come over wherever you are. Immediately. No questions asked.”

“But why?”

“Well, you are a kid and I just emotionally adopted you as my little brother now so you can’t get rid of me. Besides, I am easier to get hold of than my dad if you ever need a bit of expertise on a few magical matters.”

Then, John came in with a thick book in his hands and looked between the two of them, “Found it. Did you two have a nice playdate?”

“Billy is my new brother now.”

“I am not going to adopt him. He already has his own family and one hell spawn is enough for me to deal with.”

“I love you too, dad. Don’t be afraid to ask for a favor, Billy. I have to go. I have school in -like-” She looked at the grandfather clock that showed time in another dimension where time runs backwards, “-an hour.”

“Don’t run just on stamina potions for three days straight again and go to sleep once school is over. I will call your mother to check on you. I know you came here to get your hands on the ingredients for it.” John called after her.

“Okay. Bye. Love you. See ya” Marinette said as she stepped through the portal.

John turns back to Billy, “Kids, amirite? That’s why you have to use protection.”

“I’m twelve.”

“But she’s right, Billy.” John added, “You need someone who’s an expert when you find yourself in a pinch. As much as I hate to say it, she’s good at the family ‘business’. Besides, I might not be available all the time. She can teach you magic too when I can’t be bothered.”

—

First time, Billy called Marinette. She portaled to his location immediately and found Billy as Captain Marvel in the phone booth, awkwardly standing inside as the area they were in was in chaos.

“So what happened?” She asked in her Lady Rouge suit.

“Um, who are you?”

“Whoops. Sorry.” Marinette removed her mask. “It’s me, Marinette. This is my hero costume and the magic makes me unrecognisable by other people. I go by Lady Rouge.”

“Okay.”

“So what’s up? And why is everything on fire?” she asked as she put her mask back on.

Billy explained. There is a demon on the loose. Somebody in Fawcett had the bright idea to sumon one but didn’t do the ritual right. He tried everything but the demon bastard was slippery to catch.

Everytime he is close to catching the demon, there will be people nearby who will be in danger so Billy has to let the demon go in order to save the civillians.

“At this point, I need some help.” He sheepishly ended. “Hope I wasn’t a bother to you.”

Lady Rouge reached up and ruffled his hair, “I made a promise to you,kid. You call for whatever you need and I will come. Now, let’s go catch that bastard.”

They set a trap and Captain Marvel tries to lead the demon towards it. It gets trapped.

Lady Rouge being dramatic steps out the shadow, “Well done, Cap. Just as planned.”

When the demon caught sight of who was helping Captain Marvel, it shrieked, “IT'S YOU!!”

Lady Rouge tilted her head confused, “I’m sorry. I don’t think I have ever met you before.”

“You don’t need to know my name. I am leaving. I swear I will never come to the human side ever again. Please let me go. Please.” It begged.

Lady Rouge just rolled with it. “How can I trust you to keep your promise?”

“I swear on my name. I swear on everything I have. Please. Please let me go.”

Lady Rouge took the demon’s hand, used a sharpie to draw something that looked nearly phallic and chanted a spell that glowed bright. The demon cried louder.

“Don’t be a baby. That was a simple tracking spell. It doesn’t hurt.”

“You used angelic runes!”

“Oops. But now I will know if you come upside again. Oh, by the way, tell all your friends down there that my sentence was lifted.” She said before opening a portal to Hell under the demon.

Captain Marvel stared at her.

“What?”

“Why was that demon so scared of you?”

“Nearly every low-level demon thinks I am a demon. High-ranking ones won’t say shit because they know how much of a headache it would be if it got out that I was just a human or because they think what I do is entertaining.”

“That’s kinda messed up.”

“It’s hell, kiddo. Of course, it’s kinda messed up. I can give you a tour of the place one day.”

“It’s fine.” Billy didn’t want to go to where demons lived willingly. “What did you mean that your sentence was lifted? Are you banned from going to hell or something?”

Marinette looked away and muttered something quickly in French.

“What?” The infinite wisdom of Solomon meant he could understand what she said but he wasn’t sure he heard it right.

“I was grounded because I might have… caused a ruckus down there a while ago.”

“What did you do?” he questioned.

“It’s a long story. You don’t need to know.”

“I heard something about the crashing of the stock market and loopholes.”

“There were a lot of things one after another. First, my girlfriend was taken away by her demon father and he was a high-ranking one so it caused a lot of buzz. For the next few months, I was getting tired of fighting akumas so I caused a lot of... mischief for the denizens of hell as stress-relief and long story short, I fucked over Hell’s governing system and the Devil himself made a deal with my father that I won’t be able to go to Hell for my entire lifetime so they wouldn’t have to deal with me.”

“You… you got a lifetime ban from hell.”

“Yes, when I die, I might go to hell but as long as I am living and breathing, I can’t step foot in there.”

“But you told the demon that you were coming back.”

Lady Rouge’s mask widened and Captain Marvel knew that she was grinning under her mask. “That’s the fun part. They don’t know that. And they are going to send Hell into a frenzy because they are scared of me returning.”

“You are basically Hell’s bogeyman.”

Lady Rouge laughed. “Oh my kwami, that sounds awesome. I am putting that on my business cards.”

I had an idea I don't really know how to flesh it out but here it goes,

Jazz and Danny are not Jack's kids, not to say Maddie cheated just because they weren't together until after Danny's birth, I haven't thought thru who Jazz's father would be yet, but Danny's is John Constantine.

Danny knows who his bio dad is, John would visit a bit when he was younger and a couple other times to see if he had magic (he doesn't... Yet) and sometimes Danny even stayed over at his house for a weekend or two, they call occasionally but mostly birthdays and holidays.

So when Danny gets turned into a ghost well he kinda forgot to tell John and we'll John was a bit buiser that year so it was mostly calls and well time passes and the old king got defeated and Danny became the new one in his place, and then the world is gonna end soon and we'll the Justice League were kinda desperate so they summoned the Ghost King...

Well let's just say John will be having a conversation with his son after this whole world ending business is done with (also the Justice League too for just summoning something without knowing with it would even help them) also seeing if he can spend more time with Danny too cause apparently leaving him alone got him half-killed.

(Jazz's dad could be batman for the fun of it)

Ghosts of the Past

prompt idea @silverblueglitter

The world was on the brink of destruction. A cosmic anomaly had begun tearing through the fabric of reality, threatening to unravel time and space. Despite their best efforts, the Justice League had found themselves helpless. Superman and Wonder Woman tried to contain the damage, while Batman and Martian Manhunter scoured the globe for a solution. Yet, nothing seemed to be enough. The end was imminent.

Desperation grew, and with it, the League decided on an unconventional plan. They would summon the Ghost King. But they didn’t fully understand what they were invoking.

In the ghostly realm, Danny Fenton—now the new Ghost King—was consumed by duties. He didn’t have time for the mortal world anymore. He was no longer a teenager who had barely learned to balance his life between his ghostly identity and his human side. The Ghost King was an entity of immense power, a ruler of spirits, a force beyond mortal comprehension.

When the Justice League’s call pierced the veil of his domain, Danny was torn. Part of him wanted to ignore the summons; after all, it wasn’t like they were family. But another part, the part that still held traces of his human self, responded anyway.

And so, he appeared on the Watchtower, a swirl of ectoplasmic mist, an ethereal being more ancient than any of the heroes before him.

“Who are you?” Wonder Woman’s voice was sharp, her sword drawn, ready to strike. She had never seen anything like this before.

“I’m the Ghost King,” Danny’s voice reverberated through the room, cold and powerful, as his glowing eyes scanned the League. “And you are in more trouble than you realize.”

Superman stepped forward, concern in his eyes. “We don’t have time for games. We need your help. The world—everything—could end if we don’t act now.”

Danny raised an eyebrow. “You think summoning a ghost will fix a cosmic disaster? I’m not your standard superhero. But, I’ll bite. What’s the situation?”

As the League explained their predicament, Danny’s mind swirled with possibilities. He was no longer a kid, no longer the boy who struggled with his powers. But even he knew there were limits to what he could do. Still, he decided to help, and together, the League and the Ghost King devised a plan to stabilize the rift in reality.

Despite the tension between them, Danny worked alongside the heroes, using his ghostly powers to seal the breach. But something nagged at him. His father—John Constantine—wasn’t here. Not that Danny had expected him to be. John was always... distant. Even when Danny was younger, John’s visits were few and far between. He'd show up for a weekend now and then, a brief phone call on his birthday, but nothing that could be called a real presence in his son’s life. But now, as Danny stood with the Justice League, saving the world, he couldn’t help but wonder why his father hadn’t been a part of it.

The crisis was over, but Danny couldn’t shake the feeling that something was missing. The League celebrated, but Danny felt out of place, like an outsider in a world that wasn’t his own. The realization hit him hard—he had no one to turn to.

And that was when Batman and Jazz appeared.

Danny stood on the balcony of the Watchtower, looking down at the Earth below. Jazz stepped up beside him, her gaze soft but full of understanding. She had always been the level-headed one, the one who could read him without him saying a word.

“You did it, Danny,” she said, smiling. “The world’s saved, and you’re still standing.”

Danny gave a half-hearted smile. “Yeah, but it didn’t feel like a win. I’m not just a ghost anymore. I’m the King of the Dead.”

Batman’s voice cut through the moment. “You’re not just the Ghost King. You’re family.”

Danny looked at Batman, surprised by the rare softness in his tone. “Family? I’m not sure I have one of those.”

“You have more than you think,” Batman said. “Jazz is your sister, and we’re not going anywhere.”

Danny met Jazz’s gaze, his expression softening. She was right. He wasn’t alone.

But before he could speak, Batman continued, his voice steady but serious. “You saved the world, Danny. But your father should’ve been here. He’s a part of this too.”

Danny’s chest tightened. “I don’t need him,” he muttered, more to himself than to Batman. “I’ve made it this far on my own.”

“Danny—” Batman’s voice was firm. “You’re not alone. I know your relationship with John hasn’t been perfect, but you’re still his son. And you need him.”

Danny clenched his fists, the weight of the truth sinking in. “I haven’t needed him for a long time.”

“You deserve more than his occasional check-ins. You deserve something real.”

Jazz placed a hand on Danny’s shoulder, her eyes soft. “You’ve got us, Danny. And maybe... maybe it’s time to let him in.”

Days passed, and Danny found himself standing on a rooftop in Gotham City, gazing at the sprawling city below. His thoughts were clouded, full of questions about his life, his powers, and his father.

That was when he heard the all-too-familiar voice.

“Did you really think I wouldn’t notice?”

Danny spun around to see John Constantine leaning casually against a chimney, cigarette in hand, his expression a mix of annoyance and concern.

“What are you doing here?” Danny asked, shocked but also relieved to see him.

John exhaled a puff of smoke. “Did you think I wouldn’t find out? I’m not stupid. And neither are you.” His eyes softened. “I’ve been a terrible father, Danny. But I’m here now.”

Danny swallowed, his emotions warring within him. “You weren’t here before. You weren’t here when I needed you.”

John sighed, his eyes flicking away briefly before he met Danny’s gaze again. “I know, and I’m sorry for that. But I’m not going anywhere now. You’re not alone, kid. You never were.”

Danny’s voice cracked slightly. “I don’t know if I can forgive you.”

“You don’t have to,” John said, stepping closer. “I’m not asking for that. I’m just asking for a chance to be part of your life.”

Danny didn’t know what to say. All these years, he had convinced himself that he didn’t need John, that he could handle everything himself. But now, standing here, facing his father, something shifted inside him.

“Maybe I could get used to that,” Danny said quietly.

John smirked, flicking the cigarette away. “Good. And about that ‘Ghost King’ business...” He raised an eyebrow. “We’re going to need to have a long chat about that.”

Danny couldn’t help but smirk back. “I think I’ve got it under control.”

In the weeks that followed, things began to change. Danny had his duties as the Ghost King, but he no longer felt like he was facing them alone. John Constantine, though still as unpredictable as ever, made an effort to be present in Danny’s life. Their relationship was complicated, but it was real.

And with Jazz by his side, and Batman’s quiet but steady presence, Danny felt something he hadn’t in a long time: hope.

The Ghost King might have been a ruler of the dead, but he was no longer a king in isolation.

I am to lazy to explain how Jazz and Danny found out that B man is Her bio dad.

[its-maemain]

Maribat Prompt:

Bio dad John Constantine AU where John sold his firstborn (or their soul) in a deal. (ya know under the belief he won't have a child)

At [Age] the entity he sold her too comes to collect, but the Kwami ain't letting that happen and Marinette is making sure she gets answers.

Bearbert reminds me of Annie's bear from League of Legends, Tibbers. This is how I will imagine Bearbert as from now on:

Just, tiny cuddly Bearbert til he's called to action and then, huge Grizzly sized teddy ready to ruin a bitches day.

I am positively feral of the idea that John Constantine is an ex of both Maddie and Jack Fenton. Imagine the possibilities. They’re endless.

[transparentgayprotector]

I remember this little prompt on here I have something to add to it but I can't find it.

So Bruce is Danny's bio Dad and Selina is his mom.

Bruce has no idea Danny is a halfa and John Constantine says he's possessed so he tries to exorcist Danny with Bruce allowing it.

So Danny is pretty much getting tortured since they're literally trying to tear him apart.

Danny has been going through this for like hours before Jazz and Selina show up, flip their shit and leave with Danny.

Bruce of course says the wrong things about how they're siding with the being possessing his song and stuff.

But yeah. Please help me find this post so I can add to the thread.

Edit: Someone found it!

Here's the link

Worst/Best au idea.

John Constantine is Chloe's bio parent. This changes nothing because Andre thinks he's Chloe's father and Audrey isn't about to lose control like this. This unfortunately results in Constantine going to Paris on Bat's orders about the miraculous and instantly running into Chloe. And somehow, they actually like each other. Oh he for sure recognizes her and she has feeling something is screwy with her true parentage. But they are emotionally repressed so... if the other doesn't bring it up why should they? Also for no reason in particular Chloe starts wearing trench coat.

I love how we can just make literally any character into Chloé's bio dad.

Like Audrey is canonically a cheater so it's plausible.

[virgil-is-a-cutie]

In correspondence with bio dad Bruce Wayne for Raven au and bio dad John Constantine for Apple White.

Bio mom au Selena Kyle is Daring Charming’s biological mother, she was a surrogate who got paid after giving birth to Daring. He originally had curly black hair and green eyes, but Mr and Mrs. Charming force him to use a glamour that changes his black hair and green eyes, to blonde hair and blue eyes. Dexter and Darling are rainbow babies who Mr and Mrs. Charming don’t treat right.

On legacy day Daring becomes the next Catwoman. He finally gets to drop the glamour around his hair and eyes, as he finally breathes to no longer be something that he’s not.

I like this, I imagine Selina kept tabs on him, or Bruce finds out and keeps tabs on him for Selina.

This makes Dexter the heir to the Charming fam since even though Darling is older, she's a female and the Charmings, every kingdom run by a Charming, do not allow Queen Regnants, or female heirs

Father and son bonding time! I agree with Barry, it is cute!

Read a few Silver age Flash comics, out of curiosity and to get a bit of info on Captain Boomerang (Digger Harkness). Reading Barry strapped to a giant boomerang (happens twice I think) was very funny. While Harkness isn't sure if he wants his son to grow up to be a villain, he doesn't mind if Owen tags a long for some his more goofier schemes. Look how much fun everyone is having! (except for Wally lol)

Owen and Jason have some fun joking around with Koryak, tho Kory seems more annoyed than anything else.

Bottom drawings focusing on Tefe, I gave her a little flower buddy for some company. Got the idea from Swamp Thing (2000 version) where she had a little plant she carried around early on. I like to imagine the flower likes to express the emotions she doesn't feel like showing to others.

Drew Abby Holland, Tefe's mother, and John Constantine her bio-dad. Wanted to show what physical traits she inherited form each, hopefully she looks like a mix of both.

Anyways, hope you like it!

Magic mayhem can create a God

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/sSrvhk4 by Potatothing125 Danny Fenton never knew his bio parents but after the bat burger explosion he needed to find his bio dad, who, with the help of clockwork, was none other then Bruce Wayne. The most shocking thing about meeting his dad was finding out he had two dads not one, and not in the way that he was a clone but that magic was involved. And who else but a drunk magicion to be his other dad, who else but John Constantine could become pregnant with magic -- Or Bruce Wayne and John Constantine are danny Fenton's bio dad's and danny had no where else to go.

Would you ever write a fandom crossover au?

OH MY GOD -- I have SO MANY crossovers. I love a crossover. I do HP crossovers with legit anything. I have a "Harry is abandoned in Gotham and promptly fostered by Bruce Wayne" au, a "Tony Stark is Harry's bio-dad" au, a "Harry and Hermione end up in the Supernatural TV show world" au, and like so many more.

As I start branching into Marvel more, I have other crossovers that involve Peter Parker more now. So like, a few DC/MCU fics. I love the idea of a smushed world where all the heroes sort of coexist. Usually post-Blip. I have a GREAT one that is heavily Peter interacting with Superman and his family. I have a Peter Parker/Chuck TV show crossover that is so random but also SO 🔥.

I've been one a binge lately of DC crossovers. I started a Natasha Romanov in DC world au that I love but lacks plot so it hasn't gone anywhere. And I just started a story where Hermione and John Constantine are related. That has two versions, one is a Harmony and the other is Jason Todd/Hermione -- which, I'm OBSESSED with that ship idea. I also have a smutty Jason/Hermione I'm working on.

Maybe one day I'll actually finish one of them and post them. But I'm going to be honest, I write crossovers way more than probably anything else and I've only ever posted one 😅

➵ main ➵ bio ➵ face ➵ muse ➵ wishlist ➵

about:

This is a sideblog, and I follow back from my main @grimmusings. Please direct IMs there, since it's easier for me to keep all my messages on one blog. It's also easier to start interactions with me there, where I regularly post open starters and meme prompts. For a full list of rules, see my main. Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.

Mia is a canon character from Arrow. All details vary based on verse, but in general I pull her from after the point where Felicity goes to meet Oliver in the afterlife, but before the universe resets to make Mia a socialite. She has all the memories of being raised by Felicity and training with Nyssa and Oliver. Given that her dad died being a hero, she has a lot of doubts about the hero lifestyle and refuses to pick up the bow in his place. Instead, she makes a living as the undefeated cage fighter, Blackstar, in Star City and also dabbles in cyber crime, where she picked up her ganddad's old codename the Calculator.

wanted connections:

This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I can roll with most muses as far as basic interactions. I’m happy to ship Mia with other comics characters and OCs/fandom crossovers based on chemistry, but unless they’re on my OTP list, they need plotting and interaction first. There is never any pressure to ship with me, even if they’re on my list.

OTPs: Zoe Ramirez, Connor Hawke Family: William Clayton, Felicity Smoak, Oliver Queen, Thea Queen, John Diggle, Laurel Lance Other: John Constantine (she feels she owes him a debt for helping to locate Oliver's soul), Bucky Barnes (he understands her misgivings about heroes), Clint Barton, Kate Bishop, Artemis Crock, Daryl Dixon (all the archer team-ups, please!)

default verses:

arrowverse: Ignores the multiverse reset and picks up following Oliver and Felicity's deaths. Mia lives in Star City, working as Blackstar the cage fighter and the Calculator in cyber crime.

multiverse!madness: Various comics universes collide, whether Marvel/DC/etc. have always existed on the same Earth, or other-dimension shenanigans are at work. Duplicate friendly!

college!verse: All the heroes of comics live happily ever after and raise their kids. Mia and William are raised together by Oliver and Felicity. Mia is typically attending college and training to be a hero simultaneously, per her parents' request that she experience some "normal" life.

Each night was only a new nightmare. A new story for her to live through. Only problem is that it only ended when she died violently in the dream realm the next morning. Unfortunately, she needed the help of a few detectives and magic users to catch Hawkmoth and remove the residue he left on the city.

Afterall, she didn't want Paris to end up like Gotham City did many centuries ago.

Lexi rolled her eyes as she was finally able to come to the summoning spot. "John, you stupid drunk. If you wanted to talk to the king of the infinite realms you should have asked me. We have coffee at least once or twice a month depending on our schedule. You deserve to have a shoe thrown at you." She said sticking her tongue out at Constantine before tossing the shoe back to Danny.

Danny smiles as he looked over spotting Lexi. "Hey fellow ruler! Was this what you meant when you said you switched teams for a little bit. I know Stark can be annoying, but I think the furry is worse." Lexi giggles as she turned to face Danny. "Yeah, but the birds mellow this one out a little bit along with the boy scout. Star Spangled spandex was only making Stark worse. Besides, I love the girls nights with Kitty, Bloom, and Harls." They both looked over as they heard Batman clear his throat to gain their attention. "Are we interrupting something?" Bruce asked as he crossed his arms.

"Where are my manners? Batsy, this is the nice yet slightly silly king of the infinite realms and fellow space nerd, Danny Phantom. Your highness, these are a couple of the founding members of the Justice League Batman and Superman with Constantine representing JL Dark." Lexi said as she introduced everyone. "The king and I go way back. I helped him and the other ghosts save his town once. How is Ember by the way? We are trying to plan a karaoke night with a few of the other ghosts, and I might have shared some of her new songs with Jinx and Raven too. We really need to find ways for her to perform without mind control." She said as she went back to talking to Danny.

Superman looked between the two of them confused. "Wait, you two are actually royals. I thought you said you were just a magic user Mischief." Lexi blushed as she looked over to Clark. "I am a magic user, but I am technically crown princess of both Asgard and Jotunheim because of my birth father. We visit them on holidays, and my bio dad is trying to reconnect with the Jotun side of the family. Danny just had to beat Pariah Dark, and saved both his home and the infinite realms from an ecto asteroid."

Danny laughed as he looked over to Lexi. "You say that like it was an average Tuesday for me. I still am grateful for the help Princess Chaos. Now, what does the JL need me for besides confirming I'm not going to mess with this world."

(feel free to add on. I may write more or this will be a lonesome little ficlit)

“It’s safe to approach?” Bruce asked, gesturing to the pentagram and its teenage ghost resident.

“Yep” Constantine turned his back on the pentagram he’d drawn and cleared his throat, “Uh yes, sorry. It’s triple layered, so he couldn’t do anything even if he wanted-“

Bruce could only watch as Clark shot forward, only he was too late to stop the projectile that pegged the occult detective in the back of the head.

“Ow! The fuck was that!”

The object rolled to a stop, revealing itself to be a single black and white converse. Bruce’s gaze snapped to the spiritual prison, only to find its resident sprawled out lazily on the floor with a wide grin and a mysteriously missing a left shoe.
