#JLDark

[livannasalinger]

DP x DC prompt 2

I like the idea that JLD starts hearing rumors about the new King of Infinit Realms and then Batman decides to investigate. Usually stories are written with Batman having discovered Amity and then meeting Danny, but what if the focus of the story is a little earlier? The idea is:

Okay, according to wikipedia, the JLD members are: John Constantine, Detective Chimp, Doctor Fate , Ragman, Etrigan and Zatanna. Wonder Woman is also included in some fics and I think it's cool to include her here. Well then, it would be nice if the story started from the perspective of these members, each one (or at least some of them) having supernatural encounters that go in a different direction than expected (a mission, an artifact that starts to work differently, a realization that something in the universe has changed). Each member reports these changes in a conversation that started casually and then they decide to investigate more, it would be great to explore different encounters they have with creatures or beings more connected to the other side, and these beings talking, but not talking - maybe presenting riddles, maybe not talking on purpose, refusing to comment - I particularly like it when the character Lucifer, from the series, appears. He can clarify the facts, or he can refuse to give a straight answer (I imagine he and Danny can actually get along very well). Anyway, after many ghostly and surreal encounters, as well as finding several pieces of art and legends about the mysterious Phantom (maybe Diana will also get in the middle of this, discovering files in themyscira about Phantom being connected to Kronos aka grandfather clockwork), the group finally discovers that there has been a significant power shift, that Pariah Dark is no more etc. Not only that, they  discover the GIW and the Anti-Ecto Acts exist. And in the midst of it all they discover that there's still a whole universe of things they don't know (infinit realms and such).

Meanwhile, on the other hand, it would be awesome if, like stan lee in the avengers movies, Danny actually had multiple appearances (a boy asking for coffee in the background, someone they asked for directions in a certain city). Danny would already be moving towards being the king (crowned, but still learning and effectively being a prince, more than a ruler). Or the idea that he's basically the host of the realms is pretty cool too, less of a ruler, but more about being the one who maintains the balance between life and death. This would all be part 1, which would see JLD coming to the realization that there's a part of the world they didn't know about and now they have to bring it to JL.

In part two you could focus on other aspects, such as: - Division JLD and JL: not on purpose, but members like Superman and Batman, among others, have their problems when interacting with the supernatural. Batman for example: he's not stupid, but his tendency to investigate and have a contingency plan for everything and everyone can be especially problematic when dealing with the supernatural, as there are rules and boundaries you can't cross if you don't know how to deal with them and the consequences. So, difficult conversations trying to explain the situation in the right context and perhaps a greater understanding from JL members of how unprepared they are to properly deal with this type of problem maybe?. - Follows after the fact above the investigation itself, with a mixture of JL and JLD, each with their contacts and specialties, finally arriving at Amity park and the Fentons. - And finally we come to the classics DP fics: the Fentons as Mad scientists, neglectful parents and etc and the plot twist of the moment: Danny and Jazz Fenton are “missing”, with the city as part of a conspiracy that helped take the children out of the Fenton family and out of reach of the GIW, and citizens of Amity distrustful or aggressive towards the JL (Danny and Jazz ran away and they are now Nightingale , it would be great if they were in Gotham this whole time hauhau) . It could even expand the lore about the Nightingales, they could be a family relatively known within the right circles as the psychopomp. The idea here is that they don't find out who Danny is at first, that there are layers of mystery until they find the answer. That Danny, even though he's young, has enough time to learn and when he has to face it and talk to JL and JLD, he would do it as an equal.

possible part 3 - In parallel, the adventures of Danny, jazz and company running away to gotham, learning things outside the small world that is Amity Park, Danny talking with Lady Gotham and helping her to take care of the supernatural part of the city, since that is not the specialty of Batfam, even with Metas like Duke. The batfam feeling that the city is different someway. Maybe Danny meeting several of the waynes/ vigilants, bonding with some of them and etc. Not forgetting Jazz and her work in Arkham and Sam and Tucker and Ellie somehow included. (maybe even Dan).

Dpxdc where dani/Elle is a teen travel vlogger. And she then exposes the world to one danny fenton/retired teen hero phantom via the teenage dirt bag tiktok trend.

It starts with photos of her lovable older brother who has made several appearances on her accounts over the years. Then flashes to really well taken shots of him in action as phantom from the ages of like 15 to 18. Elle captions it, "I'm not really old enough to do this trend, you know who is though–."

It blows up. Bitches are like who tf is this. Why don't we know him. That last shot omg I think i ruptured an artery. Where is he from.

People try to get information on him but can't find anything. Elle rarely visits the same place twice so they can't figure out where she's originally from. No one can find any public news articles on a similar hero. Elle doesn't hide her powers so they don't think she's lying. And a few of the photos did look like newspaper clippings so they have to exist somewhere.

I don't actually know how DC would tie into this, but that's what I was thinking about when I had the idea.

Also when danny finds out she did this his responce is more or less, "well they never actually had you sign anything so I guess it's fine," because he had to sign an nda but they kept Elle secret at the time so she didn't. The fact that he legally can't say anything is the only public statement he gives. And the only further information Elle gives is that she technically can.

Danny was on his way to movie night when felt the starting stages of the personal summoning he'd given his best friends.

He was just gonna let them pull him through because he was still like half an hour out (stupid Box Ghost making him track him half way across the country and drop his phone somewhere in Arkansas).

But then the summoning fizzled out. It never completed and after a few minutes without input the connection died.

Now Danny is absolutely racing back to see what could have possibly interrupted his friends from completing the very simple 2 minute summoning.

He is not expecting a handful of Justice League members to be standing around while the Soul Debt Evader attempts to lecture his entirely unrepentant friends about the dangers of summoning Eldritch entities.

A Justice League member finds two people attempting to summon some kind of an extradimensional horror to this earth and puts a stop to it. The suspicious couple, a miss Manson and a Mister Foley, try to explain something about a ‘movie night’ and an ‘idiot who lost his cellphone.’

I have had this post in my asks for months now and I am absolutely obsessed with it. Truly wonderful.

Some of the Teen heroes end up joining them in their movie night :)

Bruce Bashing

I’m here for Bruce Wayne bashing. Not like Bad parent/abusive Bruce Wayne, icky no. I mean like, lol, ha loser man TM bashing.

Like point at this stupid fricking man and being like, this dumbass ‘I am the night’ ‘I know death intimately’ as if he isn’t one of the only JLDark members to not have gone to hell at least once.

He’s so dramatic and it’s so funny.

This dumb little rich man is so self-important and drama queen and I think it’s hilarious to go ha lol, what a funny himbo dumbass.

Clark Pines AU random headcanons

-sometimes Stan and Ford pull the "switch clothes and talk differently to see if anyone can tell the difference" trick to mess with the twins, and they fall for it a solid 35% of the time, but Clark never falls for it because he can hear their hearts and Ford's heart is FUCKED UP due to the gazillion volts of electricity he got during weirdmageddon

-Clark almost didn't go to college to stay and work at the Shack and maybe convince his dad to finally let him help with the portal, but Stan recognized Clark was smart af and didn't want Clark to be held back for his sake. And then Stan had twenty crises in a row when it came time for Clark to actually Go To College

-Clark has to wear (reading) glasses but he doesn't like the feel of them so he usually just carries them around and wears them as infrequently as possible. And then his entire secret identity becomes "put on glasses" so he has to wear them all the time and he's REALLY MAD about it

-Clark was originally going to college for some sort of mechanics/engineering degree, but once he left Gravity Falls, he realized just how weird his hometown is. Like, he was theoretically aware, but the guy lived there his whole life. He left a few times to visit the twins and their parents or for miscellaneous other reasons but he never really lived outside of Gravity Falls for any amount of time. So it kinda hits him how different The Real World (for lack of a better term) is, and he decides to switch to communications/journalism major instead. Also, he was not very good at engineering.

-The Mystery Twins are approximately the same age as Robin!Dick so they become pretty good friends over the years. Mabel has a gigantic insane crush on Dick and Dick has a tiny baby crush on Dipper and everybody is oblivious about everything except for Bruce and Clark, who have to silently suffer together about the situation until everyone gets over it.

-Dipper gets really into magic and spells and stuff as he gets older so he becomes Clark's go-to "there's weird shit happening and it's not the genre I usually deal with" person. It isn't his life's work like with Constantine or Zatanna, so he isn't a JLDark member or anything, but he definitely Knows Some Shit.

-I'm cooking something along the lines of "Mabel becomes the youngest congresswoman ever at age 18" simply because I think it would be funny and because nobody ever acknowledges how that one frozen president technically made Mabel a congresswoman in that one episode.

-You know how Jon Kent is named that after Clark's Canon Dad Jonathan Kent? Clark tries to name his kid "Stan" after his dad and uncle and both Stanley and Stanford are like don't you FUCKING dare, we have enough Stans in this family, please give your son a better name dear god

-When the Young Justice team (yj98, NOT yjtv) forms, there's a running bit where they keep fucking running into either Mabel or Dipper on every other mission, except none of them know they're Superman's cousins so they think these two weirdos are trying to do Evil Stuff when in fact they're just living their lives, and these lives happen to be absolutely insane enough to keep crossing over with teenage superhero shenanigans.

Absolutely. That is obviously a haunted child and haunted children are the absolute worst to deal with. The fact that he doesn’t trigger any instinctual uncanny valley feelings makes it even worse.

I have a simple fascination and joy in the thought that, for the Ghost King AU, most of the time Danny is literally so normal compared to other ghosts.

Like, he’s a kid. He looks like a kid. Going by canon appearances, he is the most human looking ghost we see (aside from Ellie). Even Plasmius is more inhuman, which is where all the vampire jokes come from. Every single one of this enemies is off even in a human disguise. They’re not human, and people don’t expect them to be.

So aside from the implications of Danny looking like a child ghost, I wonder what other characters would think if they summon the Ghost King, expecting this huge monstrosity worse than anything they’ve ever seen, and getting a totally normal human-looking kid.

I’d be terrified. Because if horror movies have taught us anything, it’s that the most innocent and normal looking people are the worst monsters you’ve ever seen.

Like, what is he hiding??

[new-revenant]

Vlad inherits a random gravel patch in Gotham from a friend he spoke to a handful of times. He can't set foot in Gotham due to a business deal gone bad so he passes the gravel patch off on Danny. Danny checks it out and finds out its a couple acres. He does some searching and finds out that there is a lock box buried in the property with a couple million dollars in cash. Danny decides to start a farm on a whim

Turns out the ground’s haunted and everything he grows comes to life. Batman shows up to see a sobbing Danny about to be sacrificed by his own plants. Poison Ivy also helps them out because the plants Do Not want to do this either, but they’re very possessed. Danny thinks it’s all his fault but once he figures out it’s not he is so relieved.

It turns out that this was all a ploy against Vlad but it became this whole problem the Justice League-and JLDark-had to solve.

// quiet reminder that JLDark: Apokolips War was bullshit, and Kon shouldn't have died like he did.

#Comicbook Update 2. I jumped into two new series last month. #JusticeLeagueDark and #BlackPanther Intergalactic Empire of #Wakanda. Both have really drawn me in. #JLDark deals with more of the fallout from #DarkNightsMetal and the #SourceWall but from a magical angle. Lots of complex character development. Meanwhile #BPIEoW is life!!!! I’m loving everything about this series. From the characters to the story to the action to the historical references to the dialogue to the artwork. #DCComics #MarvelComics #comicbooks #comics #doyouevencomicbook #readmorecomics https://www.instagram.com/p/Bou1Nn0H7hy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hwhll41yizgx
