#I just really love semi retired Danny and I like him being a tech for the JL okay let me have this

[swiggity-swexual-i-am-asexual]

Imagine the watchtower gets attacked. Some alien or something or other. Giving EVERYONE a real hard time. And Danny, whose like 5 minutes into overtime cause he can’t clock out on this particular Friday with a weekend off to look forward to, goes.

Huh.

This guy showed up in a spaceship.

Can they not space breathe?

And so he somehow manages to grab alien guy, who has put communications and travel to and from the watchtower on a lockdown and has thus been able to deal with the limited Justice League members without them getting backup and ALSO preventing Danny from leaving. He drags them into the airlock.

He looks at his hero coworkers, eternally tired, goes “I’ve got this one guys, I’ll see ya on Monday,” and gets them both yeeted out to space.

Naturally, the Justice League is like, devastated. Meanwhile Danny ‘I WILL have work life balance so help me’ Fenton-and-or-Nightingale-and-or-once-was-Phantom just has all of his work contacts entirely muted.

“I’ll know if the world is ending, I’ll help then. Otherwise they can call one of the other like, fifteen techs.”

So you can just IMAGINE how that goes over when he does in fact clock in on Monday.

Bonus for League meaning The League.

Danny sneaks in cause he’s like, at least one quarter idiot on his dad’s side, and is trying to flee from Talia the Fucking Terrifying, ends up in Damian’s classroom. Damian’s waiting for his next tutor, unaware that part of Talia’s mood is cause she had to kill the last one for…. Reasons.

“Are you my tutor?” The disdain is clear.

“Uh-“ Danny evaluates his chances of dying to Knife Lady. “Sure, whatcha learning?”

“Languages.”

“… like, a specific one, or-“

“Languages.”

“… Wanna learn Greek?”

And so when Talia does end up there, Damian’s like “I approve mildly of this tutor.”

“Oh, so you’re the replacement, not an intruder.” Talia is clearly not approving of him, but he’s shockingly good with Damian, so he lives. For now.

Bonus points if this is BEFORE Danny works for the Justice League and it’s ALSO on his resume.

Short DPXDC Prompts #648

The League gets incredibly concerned that their main tech mechanic, Danny Fenton, has instances of his heart or breathing randomly stopping. His skin is cold as ice and his skin is deathly pale.

Danny didn’t realize that the League doesn’t look at hiring applications. If they did they would have seen that he put being a half ghost on his resume.

Various Members of the Batfamily as the Oceans Eleven Crew

b/c me and my sibling dearest had this conversation the car the other day & i feel like it & it was very fun to do

1. Danny Ocean (the mastermind): Bruce Wayne, I mean obviously.

2. Reuben Tishkoff (business kingpin): Lucius Fox. After a lengthy discussion it was decided that Reuben would also be Bruce because he would not need outside funding and would (in this universe) own the casino that gets torpedoed by Terry Benidict, but after further consideration Rueben being Lucius makes a shit ton of sense - the person who would keep Bruce’s businesses afloat while arrested, the person who knows Bruce’s ex and his co-conspirators, and the badass who will call you out to your face.

3. Robert “Rusty” Ryan (right-hand man): Selina Kyle. I originally thought Clark Kent because he is Bruce’s best friend. But, Selina is the kind of ride or die bff to show up in front of the prison you’re being released from (for which you were arrested for theft and grifting) just to ask who you are conning and stealing from next. (I don’t actually know enough about Ghostmaker to say this, but I feel like this could be him too.)

4. Tess Ocean (the ex-wife): Clark Kent. Once again, I originally had Selina as my pick here before my wonderful sibling said: “But wouldn’t Clark be the one to be super upset learning Bruce was a thief and con-artist this whole time?” And she’s not wrong. (I can also see this as either the ship or just friendship. Either winning back the love of his life or his best friend.)

5. Saul Bloom (the old pro): Alfred Pennyworth. I mean come on, brought out of retirement by Bruce and co bullying him into it (but really because he never wanted to retire). The line (from memory so could be wrong): “If you ask me that again, you will not wake the following morning.”

6. Linus Caldwell (the thief): Damian Wayne. Very talented, but still new to the trade. Trying to step out of his parents shadows and prove himself. Doesn’t know how to talk to people while grifting.

7. Basher Tarr (munitions expert): Jason Todd. More in it for the thrills than anything, having a really good time, the crew would be dead if not for his thorough knowledge of his craft.

8. Frank Catton (inside man): Dick Grayson. Perfect amount of sunshine to con his way into working in a casino after having been banned from them in other states and the perfect amount of pure chaos to be the one to make a semi-public dramatic scene and get fake arrested.

9. Livingston Dell (tech-guy): Barbara Gordon. Although she doesn’t have Livingston’s anxiety problems, there is no one better suited to handle the tech portion of a heist. (She wouldn’t have to call for help in the third movie.)

10. The Malloy Brothers - Virgil and Turk (wheelmen/con-men/strike instigaters/jack-of-many-trades): Stephanie Brown and Tim Drake. I just see these two pulling off the bickering relationship the best, being able to get perfectly on each others nerves while always 100% having each other’s backs.

11. The Amazing Yen (the grease man): Cassandra Cain. The communicating in a different language (I love a Cass that uses ASL or has selective mutism, etc.). The only person who really does her part of the plan with zero fuck ups (except for the injury to her hand which was caused by someone else fucking up!) I also just imagine her like five feet tall.

12. Terry Benedict (slick business man/the target): Lex Luther. It fits so well. And Clark gets to sass the hell out of Lex and maybe slap him - although I could be remembering that wrong.

I wrote this up very late at night and need sleep, oh well. I couldn’t figure Duke Thomas into this :( Feel free to add more or add who you would have as each character, I love to see it <3
