Comes in Twos
........You know if we play around with the timeline we could have Danny and Jason die at the same age. Sure Danny half died at 14 and Jason at 15 (according to sources) BUT what if they died at the same age... on the same day...
And what if we make them twins.
Only instead of Danny being the one adopted it was Jason... only he wasn't adopted but stolen the night he and Danny were born (funnily enough they were both born in Gotham because Maddie refused to miss out on a Ghost convention happening, believed she had a few more months to go before their birth but twins are notorious to be born early). He was stolen by Sheila to pass off as Willis son (the one she had either never was real or the baby didn't live long) in order to get money from him and she ran off the moment the cash was in her hands. Willis, never thinking different due to a very convincing fake birth certificate or had the cash to do an DNA test, took Jason in believing he was his son.
The adult Fentons tried everything to find their missing son but due to Gotham corruption and dead ends had to leave the dark city and grieved over him. It's why Jazz took over taking care of Danny when he was a baby/toddler for a while, their parents sometimes felt to heartbroken when they would look at him and know they're was supposed to be an identical one with Danny. It got easier over the years though.
It would also explain how Jason would come back after dying, he was exposed to high levels of ectoplasm along with Danny when Maddie and Jack would experiment with the stuff, and unlike Danny who was immediately brought back by the portal zap its why Jason took longer to come back.
Basically a twins AU where Danny isn't adopted, it was Jason (he totally has Jack's strong build and height btw after he takes a dip in the pit, and Maddie's smarts has always been there) and I felt like wouldn’t it be something if they both were born and later died on the same day because they’re twins.

DPXDC AU: Common Ancestor..?
Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Tim Drake, do ancestry test to prevent further people from showing up claiming to be family,but are not.
To the surprise of everyone, all them seem to have a common ancestor, someone with variations of the name Daniel.
<Danny, Dan and Dani all had a time travel adventure and fell in love with their respected partners. Their offspring have long line of unregulated abilities that get passed down.
Dick Grayson --》 Could be Dani/ Danny or Dan as Dani is seen as a free spirit, with endless energy or Dan as he seems to hold a lot of anger within himself at major points in his life [Parent's death,Jason',etc...] and Danny as he loves to fly and be in the air. (he would be a Banshee)
Jason Todd --》 Could Dan or Danny as Dan also experience anger that withe pit would have amplified due to his injustice death. And Danny as Jason was revived through unusual circumstances and heavily associated with Death. (He is the classic revenant or a halfa)
Tim Drake --》 Could be Dani or Danny, as Dani is a very curious person and has a habit of trying to please people or Danny as he is prone to not dying. (He would be wandering spirit)>
They want to find out more and see that there is a modern relative that is still alive and they decide to meet them to find out their history. Their name is Jasime Fenton.
[The Danny's are not dead, they are in the GZ doing different things..]

Venom Jason DP X DC Crossover
We’ve seen variations if Danny cures Jason’s pit madness before, but what if doing so made things so much worse. Mild body horror ahead
Set up: Danny meets Jason, either off the clock or as Red hood. He senses something deeply messed up with him, aka the pit madness. Danny wants to help, but this is something he’s never seen before, maybe has heard vague whispers about, so when he can’t convince this man to go to another dimension with him(aka GZ Far frozen) he impulsively tries flushing whatever the hell this is out of Jason with ectoplasm and/or ecto dejecto.
Result: Jason starts to purge his body of the thing inside of him in the most horrifying way, out of his mouth nose and tear ducts. Gasping and surprisingly calm, he looks at the thing that came out of him. It’s red, amorphous, clearly living. and pissed,
So now the living embodiment of the pit rage is in search of a new host symbiote style. Now the struggle begins to get to the new host and free them from this thing before people get killed. Because, as they’re all about to find out, Jason was handling the rage surprisingly well.
in general, I like to think Tim becomes the unfortunate host because that just feels right and would make him much more understanding of the murder attempt. Bruce would be good because I think he could at least control himself a bit. Dick would jump straight to murder the boy has tried before multiple times and that’s without a pit. 
In the end, unable to get rid of Jason offers himself as a host to free his family. The rage is back but it was nice to have had the break all things considered. Plus the symbiote now acts as a new helmet and reinforces his armor and strikes.
So yeah Venom Jason. Feel free to steal this if you want to.

Ok but what if when Danny died he went to the GZ because of his desire to continue protecting Damien, at first he didn’t realize that he was a halfa. The reason he is a halfa is because of the Lazarus pits, he had been dropped into the Lazarus pits a couple of times before Damien was declared the heir so the ectoplasm is already in his system.
He spends a couple of years in the GZ and the story continues how it usually does he defeats pariah meets clockwork.
He eventually meets Jason and Damien again when a cult decide to summon him. They could even target Jason and Damien’s specifically because they are his soulmate and his brother (not just bats).
DPXDC IDEA:
Ok so, angst. Dead on main, and demon SIBLINGS not twins. Soulmate AU where only you know the name of your soulmate and it is guarded jealously.
-----------------
Danyal is the 1st son of Bruce and Talia was deemed too much like his father, so they had Damian to replace him as the true heir, Danny became his guard.
Danny dies protecting Damian in an attack on the league, before he dies he tells Damian the name of his soul mate and asks him to give him his love if he ever finds him and tell him sorry he couldn't be there.
-----------
Danyal gasps through the hole in his lung, blood pours out of him. But he did it. He did his job. Damian was safe. He killed all the intruders after him.
He drags his feet toward Damian room, he has to be sure he's ok, then he can rest. Alarm bells ring in the back of his head, soft and incessant. Danyal ignores them.
Pain pulses from the many punctures and slices on his body but he makes it. He pushes the door open.
"Ahki!" A small voice cries out, Damian only seven looks terrified. He rushes over and Danyal looses the fight with his body to keep upright. He collapses in the middle of the room with Damian supporting his head.
"Ahki?! Please we need to get you to the medics or or the Pit! You've lost so much blood." Small hands press on his wounds trying to staunch the bleeding.
Danyal suddenly realizes he's dying. The blood loss and what he now realizes is poison are extensive. He's not going to make it. Mother won't waste the Pit on a failure, but at least he'll die with Dami.
A though strikes him, one last selfish request, then he'll rest.
"Dami-" His voice breaks and he coughs up a bunch of blood. Damian mutters at him to - shut up you're fine, stop talking you're making it worse.
"Damian, please, I have a request." Distantly Danyal registers this is the first time he's seen Damian openly cry.
"A-anything Ahki, but you'll be Fine!" He sobs pressing harder on his chest. Danyal feels the edges of his vision fading.
"My soulmate-" Damians eyes go wide- " is named Jason Todd, if you meet him pass on my love? And tell him... I'm sorry I couldn't....... meet him. "Danyals struggles to focus on Damians face, he can't hear his sobs anymore, all he can see is Damians bright green eyes,
"ahibuk....akhi."
And Danyal knew no more.
-‐---------------
Years pass, damian goes to Bruce's. Damian realizes Todd is Danny's SM. He also realizes hes not going to want to talk to damian, so he lures Todd to the manor. He uses his skills to restrain Todd in the dining room. While everyone freaks out, he kisses Jason on the cheek. Everyone freezes.
Damian whispers " Danyal is sorry he could not be here to meet you, he sends his love through me, he died an honourable death."
Jason is stunned and Damian walks away.
Jason had never told anyone his soulmates name.
---------
AN: I had ideas to keep it as he died or that he becomes Danny phantom but this is all I have energy for rn.

Danny learns bruce is his bio dad when wayne visits fentonworks. That night batman shows up to meet him and immediately shares his identity as bruce. Apparently b had danny pegged as a secret vigilante the moment he laid eyes on him, and identified him as phantom halfway through his introductions. Danny's smart enough to realize he just won the fucking superhero allegiance lottery. He's gonna milk this so hard, he's gonna THRIVE. Just point bats at all of his enemies and watch the world burn.
Oh man I’ve seen many variations of Danny’s reaction to being Bruce’s bio kid but it’s never been something like this.
Tumblr media
Danny not going “yeah this is my town” and instead going “thank gOD now I can get some REST! Hey Damian, can you fight this guy who wants to take my skin so I can study?”
Batman goes and instantly creates dozens of contingency plans for all of the ghosts. Is a ghost harming Danny? Cool they’re getting captured in a Even Better ghost thermos that allows the ghost to still communicate even when captured and Batman terrifies them into not returning to Amity.
Both Batman and Danny fully accepting the situation, (there’s still some holy fuck I have another dad/son crisis but that doesn’t linger for too long).
Batman so glad that he has a son that’ll accept his fucking help whenever he’s asked and he doesn’t have to bully his kid into needing assistance.
Danny is so happy because he has a mentor figure that he knows is fully capable as a vigilante and doesn’t have to worry about them dying in a fight with his rogues gallery.
There’s so much angst with the debacle of “wait what the fuck I got another kid.” Sure, it’s a fun thing to write, but in doing this you can write about other conflicts:
Bruce or Danny patching the other up after a fight and chiding them for not blocking themselves more.
Bruce or Danny teaching the other how their tech works. One being the dozens of Bat gadgets, the other being Fenton gadgets. Could be a fun bonding moment talking about either technical stuff, Bruce being fucking baffled that Danny’s parents seem have their machines made out of mostly duct tape and prayer, discussions about how ectoplasm is used as a power source, or things of the sort! Don’t make Danny hide his tech! He goes “fuckin take these blueprints and help me make something that’s 100% effective” to the Batfam.
Bruce making Danny a new suit for better protection and Danny making Bruce a new suit so he can punch ghosts and be brought into the GZ.
Bringing the Batfam into the GZ to meet Frostbite, Fright Knight, or Clockwork! Have the strange father figure meet the other strange father figure and have them bond about worrying over this strange little halfa boy.
Worrying about if Jazz will accept being adopted too and Jazz going “it’s about time” and accepting far easier than they expected.
Jazz walking into the Batcave, sees Jason’s Robin suit on display, and goes “yeah that’s gonna have to be moved. Oh and Bruce, you’re meeting me in the third floor grand office closest to the stairs and we’re having a therapy session.”
Since Danny isn’t hiding from his family or anything, (well maybe but these guys are oblivious as hell. Let them just strangely accept that their kids have caught the attention of another billionaire and that they’re glad that Danny seems happier ever since he first met Mr. Wayne.) so he can have Tucker and Sam over to Wayne Manor. He can stay the night at Wayne Manor (Bruce tells them he uses a private helecopter, Danny just ghost zone portals himself over) and hang out with his new friends.
Anon you are fucking brilliant and I love this oh so much. This is a “Danny is Wayne’s Bio-kid” concept that NEEDS to be tapped into.

A Ghost King Danny AU but it’s just random ghosts going ‘door to door’ and asking people, “Would you like to hear about our Lord and savior Danny Phantom?” (Because he is a lord/king and by beating Pariah he’s the GZ/IR savior.)
Members of the Batfam keep getting stalked by multiple ghosts. Because a good portion of them have died and come back via/interacted with the green soup before making them a part of the Ghost and Liminal Malling List, run by the one and only: Box Ghost ;).
Meaning Jason constantly has to be moving safe houses because he keeps getting letters addressed to his real name at them.
Depending on which Bat-cannon is followed Cass could also get the letters, but Damien doesn’t get any because he’s a minor or Bruce gets them in his stead.
Ra’s and Thalia are also getting mail except theirs just keeps violently shooting out of the Lazarus pit.
The Bats 100% believe that this is some very strange attack/threat against their wellbeing. These strange letters and figures just throw around their real names like it's not a big deal and they won't. stop. pestering. them.
What's in the letters? If they respond no to the ghost's door-to-door preaching will the ghost just haul their ass into the GZ to meet Danny? Can they at all stop this other worldly spam mail or do they have to simply deal with it? Maybe they ask a magic user to help them with their situation and have no idea how truly screwed they truly are.
The possibilities for this one is just MMMMMMMMM so good

A what if meeting could be like: (I also imagine him being de-aged depending on his ghost age so like maybe 5 years had passed and many things happened for him to have so much malice but in a small scale cause he's a kid)
Danny: *burning something in GZ* Oh that looks damn fine.
The bats: *staring at the kid with hands on his hips being proud of his destruction*
Dick: He kinda looks like a mini-damian...
Tim: Acts like one too.
Damian: Shut it Drake.
Danny: *notices his audience* Oh hi! You're not from around here, obviously. *mutters* Does clockwork have anything to do with this? *out loud* What are you guys some kind of bat cult- hey why do you look like me but with green eyes? That's so weird. Are you a clone?
Damian: YOU are the clone. Did you not know?
Danny: No way! I've always been me! Where is your proof, without it you can't make me the clone! (Already thinking of his missing memories while panicking inside)
Damian: Stop being a fool. It'll only delay the inevitable.
Danny: But... but-
Dick: Doesn't seem like an evil clone to me (whispers)
Jason: Are you seriously ignoring the huge fire and property damage behind him?
Tim: Evil is a subjective word.
Jason: Wow replacement you're in on it too?
Dick: What? You're not? Isn't he adorable? Look at those chubby cheeks! We didn't get a chance to see that on Dami!
Tim: On second thought. He does look too evil now to me. (One demon brat is enough)
Back to Damian and Danny:
Danny: *already in tears cuz he's 5 rn* I didn't know (Thinking about his adoptive family, his past, Jazz, Dani, everyone, why nobody told him)
Damian: *sighs while pinching in between his eyebrows* You do not appear to have malice towards your original so it does not really matter. Would you like to come with us? (Already proceeding to think about how to locate the people who did this, know more about his mini-me's past, and decide whether he'd have to make someone pay for their transgressions)
Danny: What?
Damian: You do not need to decide now.
Dick: Yes! I'd be glad to know more about you mini-dami- oh I mean what is your name? Could you tell us?
Danny: Danny...
Dick: Danny! Nice to finally meet you! You can definitely come with us and maybe you'd get to eat Alfred's cookies- wait- does ghost eat human food?
Danny: No they don't... but I'm half dead half alive that came back just like that guy- (points at Jason)
Jason: Half what me?! *points at himself*
Tim: *rolls his eyes* This is going to take awhile... (wishing he brought coffee with him)
---------------
Danny will be a part of batfam while the bats get to know more about Danny's life. I see Damian becoming softer as time passed by teaching his mini-me (his blood kid) the ways of being the best Robin there is (he's already thinking of taking Danny as his Robin when he becomes batman XD)
And then Tim would be there taking the L because Damian will use him as targets for their practices just cause he's still a petty teenager hahahaha
Bruce would be there thinking ways how to teach his son how to properly take care of a child but really he has no idea so he had to always ask Alfred for these sessions - they all know- but he's doing his best so they don't call him out that much - they still do (specially Jason, he loved visiting the house for these sessions just to spite his dad)
Barbara, Steph, and Cass, will coo over this new child and spoil their nephew with gifts. Tim thinks it's too much but the girls doesn't care, they love their little nephew being a menace hahahaha Actually they already started to plan for his future date scenarios and promised to teach the boy how to properly woo a girl XD Dick approves! He specially started a collection of photos in an album when Danny became more comfortable in their home. He bribed Tim to help with either more time away from Damian and the brat cause Dick would distract them for some personal time or more love advises with Bernard.
All in all, Danny perfectly fits as the youngest child in the family. Danny found a new family with the bats ^^
"Come get your child." Robin stared incredulously at this...entity? Being? He was a child himself, how could he possibly have a kid of his own.
The creature huffed, seeming very put out by the young vigilantes confusion. "What is there to not understand? Your child has been running wild in the Infinite Realms for a while now. Ever since that portal exploded hes been taking his emotions out on everyone!" The thing said, throwing her hands into the air, "And you!" Robin stepped back a pace or two when he suddenly found a very sharp claw in his face, "I had to do a lot of searching to even find you! What kind of parent are you?!"
"I'm not."
The entity opened and closed its mouth a few times like a fish before suddenly becoming furious, "Its no wonder hes like this when his gardian has so little interest in him! Did you know the other day he plugged a liquor bottle with a cloth and lit it on fire? I don't even know where he got it, but he lit the cloth and yelled something like, "mazzle toff" and threw it at my own adult son!"
"..."
"When my little boy burst into flames do you know what he said to me?"
"...no, but I feel like you're going to tell me anyways."
"I'm sorry ma'am I wasn't expecting there to be that much fire."
"That much? So he fully intended to set someone ablaze but the amount of fire is what troubled him?"
"Yes!" She growled, exasperated, "Please come get your child as soon as possible! Hes terrorizing the whole dimension!"
Damian found himself staring at open space the woman had occupied previously before contacting Oracle through the coms, "Did you get all of that?"
It was Grayson that spoke, "Every word."
---
Aka Danny has a lot of misplaced aggression and kinda terrorizes parts of the GZ. Unfortunately for him hes a clone of one of the bats (weather or not you want it to be Damian, Project R or someone else that hes cloned from is up to you) and they're coming to him to assess if he's an evil clone or mindless or whatever.
Too bad Danny sucks at first impressions.

More accidental marriage AU!
Tim and Danny are both 19ish in this story. After they explain the situation to the Batfam, Batman contacts every occult expert he can think of to try and figure out a way to break the contract, while Danny does the same thing on the ghost front (with no luck). Zatanna does cast a glamour to hide the amulet from view so no one figures out that Tim and Red Robin are wearing the same gaudy, ancient and valuable-looking bling that was reported stolen from Gotham Museum.
Danny gets invited to the Manor for family dinner so the Bats can meet him and try to get a read on him. Most of them are super concerned about who Tim has found himself magically shackled to! After meeting Danny, Steph immediately gets a betting pool going on how long it will take the two of them to actually get together (Cass wins, obviously). Jason thinks the whole situation is hilarious until he meets his new brother-in-law who immediately clocks him as being infected with corrupted ectoplasm (more on that later).
Damian is miffed because while Danny has commoner roots he is a King by Conquest, which means he probably outranks Damian. Hell, as consort Drake might now outrank Damian which is unacceptable. Dick is worried at first but after making sure that Danny is being a perfect gentleman towards Tim he turns towards gentle ribbing. Who would have thought Tim would be the first of the Batkids to get hitched! Probably because there was no wedding ceremony for villains to blow up! Duke is mostly excited to not be the only meta in the family anymore and wants to swap teenage superhero stories with Danny.
Bruce and Alfred quiz Danny on ghosts and what being Consort will mean for Tim. Danny tries to reassure them (hah, as if anyone could) that Tim is under Danny's protection and basically has a magical giant neon sign on him saying Do Not Touch, Or Else! They worry even more.
The existence of the Lazarus Pits and what they do are a bombshell to Danny. Glowing green waters with strange properties? Reviving the dead? Driving people crazy? Aw nuts, this is gonna end up being Danny's problem, isn't it? It is. He does some research and discovers that the Pits are basically Ghost Zone sewage runoff that has been leaking into the mortal realm through cracks in reality. Since, you know, there hasn't been a reigning monarch to organize things there have been a lot of GZ problems that no one has been dealing with. Danny bangs his head on a wall for a bit and resigns himself to having to work out a GZ Infrastructure Reform Plan.
Jason gets to spend a nice week in the Far Frozen, getting all the Pit Rage cleaned out him in what amounts to a relaxing spa treatment.
Over the following months, as Danny gets to know the Batfam better he gradually figures out just how much shit Ra's and his brood have put his new family and especially Tim through. Including that time Ra's daughter (or sister?) tried to force Tim into being her baby daddy before killing him (hurk!). Danny goes to the GZ to scream for a while, then amends his plan to include thoroughly screwing Ra's.
To get back to the comedy, imagine Danny rolling up to each Lazarus pit in turn with a group of ghostly workmen in hard hats in tow. Nocturne puts the assassin guards to sleep, then the workman lower a giant hose into the pit and drain that sucker through a ghost portal in full view of the cameras. As a final touch, they put up sign in the empty pit.
Under New Management
On the Authority of HRH King Phantom
This site has been deemed a Ghost Ecological Hazard and underwent Maintenance in accordance with the Ghost-Material Plane Infrastructure Law on xx.xx.20xx
For any complaints, please contact the Office of Material Plane Affairs at Royal Phantom Court, Ghost Zone
Long May He Reign!
Ra's is of course furious and terrified at having his immortality threatened. Danny leaves him alone for juuuuust enough to let him really stew in it, but has to make sure he doesn't try any alternatives he has lined up (like trying to body-snatch Damian). King Phantom shows up in Nanda Parbat in maximum Eldritch Horror mode: "Greetings Ra's Al-Ghul. I am the King of the Dead, and you have evaded me for long enough!". Then he unleashes Spectra on Ra's to drain him down to a husk, incinerates the remains until there's nothing left and makes sure any ghost he might have left behind is sealed in a can for all eternity. And then he goes home.
Tim: Hey Danny! What have you been up to
Danny: Eh, I had to make sure some GZ sewage work got fixed. Man, I hate bureaucracy!
DC x DP prompt/ficlet
Throwing my hat in the ring with this idea that has been doing the zoomies in my brain for days. The Tim/Danny Accidental Ghost Marriage to Fake Dating to Friends to Lovers AU:
Pariah Dark was a piece of shit. Before his imprisonment, mortals would sometimes manage to bargain with the Ghost King for scraps of power. One of the "standard" deals was to send PD a "Bride" to play with and feed on (because I HC he feeds on fear and pain) and what better way than a little mortal battery that couldn't get away from him? The deal was sealed with a cursed amulet. Now in one instance, the contract was never fulfilled (maybe the petitioner died before he could complete his half) and the amulet was lost. After Pariah was imprisoned and couldn't make deals anymore the knowledge of the rituals needed was gradually forgotten since they didn't work anymore...
Eventually the amulet gets dug up by archeologists (maybe in Egypt or Mesopotamia?) and ends up in a traveling exhibit in Gotham. A Rogue robs the place (Riddler? Two-Face? doesn't really matter). When the Bats show up to foil the robbery, during the fight with the goons a drop of Red Robin's blood gets on the amulet, there's a blinding flash of green light and the amulet is suddenly glued to him.
While everyone is dazed by the ghostly magic flashbang, Fright Knight pops out of a portal, yoinks Red Robin across his saddle and jumps back through the portal before anyone can stop him. Cue the Bats trying to frantically figure out what in the multi-dimensional occult hell happened and where RR went?!
Meanwhile, Danny is disturbed to receive a ghostly missive in his college dorm to tell him that his Mail Order Bride has been delivered to his Ghost Zone Palace and is awaiting him so they can consummate their Unholy Matrimony.
----------------
Danny: Wtf I have to study I don't have time to get MARRIED
Fright Knight: I'm sorry my liege, but according to the laws of ghosts, gods and magic you already ARE
Danny: Wtf. How did this happen?
RR: I would like to know that too
Danny: Oh shit, you're a superhero. Frighty, you can't just kidnap people! Especially not SUPERHEROES!
RR: While that's good to hear, I would really like to know about this supposed marriage..?
FK: I am not aware of the exact details, I was merely summoned to retrieve the Bride of the Ghost King. There used to be standard magical contracts for this, which went into effect when the Bride bled on the King's Token...
RR: Shit
Danny: Hold on, PARIAH got married? Multiple times??
FK: ...but we can always consult the Royal Archivist, if we can dig him out from under the several thousand years worth of paperwork that piled up while there was no King actively ruling...
Danny: Oh ancients, am I gonna have to deal with that?? I have exams to prepare for, dude!
RR: ...the dead still have to do exams? And paperwork?? *horror*
-------------
Some time and explanations later...
Royal Archivist: It took some digging, but I believe I have found the contract in question. You are one Timothy Drake-Wayne, correct?
Tim: Fml
RA: Ahem. The contract was sealed with your mortal blood, as is standard procedure. Congratulations, you are officially King-Consort of the Infinite Realms! Until death do you part, and all that
Danny: Can I see that contract? ...This isn't in English
RA: Oh dear, looks like we will have to schedule your Royal Highness classes in reading cuneiform/hieroglyphics
Tim: Okay, does it say anywhere in that contract how to dissolve it? What's the procedure for a ghost divorce? Fright Knight mentioned the previous king being married multiple times
RA: Well usually, when Pariah tired of a consort he would simply devour their soul...
Danny: Ewwwww I am so not doing that
Tim: I concur. I can't imagine my soul would taste good anyway
Danny: That's what you took from that??
RA: ...but when you die and your soul passes into the Afterlife proper, the contract will be fulfilled. As long as you're not resurrected again.
Tim: Nuts, there goes that loophole
RA: Until then you are the Consort and duty-bound to fulfill his Royal Highness' every whim; ghostly, spiritual, carnal...
Danny: *sinks through the floor in embarrassment*
Tim: Can't he just... release me from the contract? Take the amulet off me or something?
RA: Not without obliterating your soul, no
Danny and Tim: Fuck
--------------
Some time later, while Danny is away consulting other ghosts on possible ways of dissolving the contract, they discover the nasty little clause that if Tim isn't in regular physical contact with Danny the amulet starts draining his life force. To prevent victims from escaping you see... Danny really really hates Pariah right now.
They eventually return to the mortal plane to explain to the Batfam what the hell is going on and that they're still trying to fix it. In the meantime, Danny can't miss any more classes (studying areospace engineering at MIT or sth) and Tim has to stick close to him because of the curse...
Alfred: Oh dear, looks like Master Timothy will have to go to college after all *unflappable British Smugness*
Bruce pulls a lot of strings to fast track Tim getting his high school diploma and let him attend classes with Danny (he's not officially enrolled yet, but Money, Dear Boy). They never know when Danny has to respond to a ghost emergency or Red Robin to a Bat emergency, so they stay pretty much joined at the hip in their civilian lives. Of course there's gonna be rumors. Why did the Wayne CEO suddenly drop everything to go to college? So they make up a story about Danny and Tim having been secret boyfriends for a while and Tim becoming so smitten that he moves with him to Boston...
Cue the fake dates, interviews with magazines, couple photoshoots to really sell the bit... and the two young men gradually becoming friends... and then "Feelings?? But what do I do?? He was forced into this?" etc.
