#Tim and Danny body swap

[minty364]

DPXDC Prompt #101

Danny and his parents were invited to Gotham so they could show one of their latest inventions to Tim and Bruce at Wayne industries. Of course this is the Fentons we’re talking about and something goes wrong during the demonstration. Danny and Tim swap bodies and chaos ensues. Danny finds out about Bruce’s and Tim’s identities after Bruce doesn’t realize they swapped at first and drives right into the bat cave. Danny tells Bruce they need to kidnap Tim since he doesn’t know how to control Danny’s powers and doesn’t want to risk him getting caught by his parents. Tim right before getting kidnapped by his own family figures out Danny is part ghost and is horrified that he lives with ghost hunter parents.

Plot Bunny: Danny Is an Unwilling & Unwitting Organ Donor 

Danny (in human form) and one of the Bats is captured by Doctor Hugo Strange (I can’t think of another Gotham rogue likely to do body experimentation). His weird experiments this time around started out with swapping organs from one person (Danny) and with another person’s (the Bat of choice).

Doctor Hugo Strange had only just sown both of them back up but before he could go any further in his experiments, the rest of the Bats arrive at the rescue. By the time Doctor Hugo Strange is subdued Danny’s ectoplasm has healed both wounds on Danny and the Bat-of-choice.

Thinking they stopped Strange before he could do anything, they take their family member home to recuperate and send the civilian on his way.

All is thought to be well until a day or so later when the Bat-of-choice starts having weird experiences. It starts out subtle, but things only grow more apparent as Danny’s ectoplasm-infused organ begins to “infect” more and more of the organ recipient’s body with ectoplasm.

Basically, Doctor Strange accidentally starts one of the Bats on the path to slowly turning into a halfa (or just heavily liminal, if preferred).

Which Bat is effected could be just about anyone; however, if its Tim/Red Robin, Tim gaining a new spleen (and Danny’s body just regrowing a spleen in its place) would be an easy choice. Or maybe Jason/Red Hood and the early signs of rising ecto-contamination could be mistaken as something related to his past dip in the Lazarus pit.

Explaining away shit:

- Handwaving explanations for there being no organ rejection, etc.? Ectoplasm BS.

- Handwaving how nothing was noticed by the Bats during a ‘just to be sure’ check-up back at the cave? Fast healing/ectoplasm BS. (This story idea is ever so vaguely inspired by the fanfic, “A Gift of a Heart” by Alexa Piper on Fanfiction.net.)   

[im-totally-not-an-alien-2]

Tim gets deaged which usually wouldn't be too much of a problem considering he still has his adult mind in tact. No. The problem is that there was a child who was the same age as deaged Tim and who looks suspiciously just like him.

Oh. And they somehow got swapped.

Now Tim is stuck trying to figure out who and what Phantom is and what dimension his "lair" is in so he can escape. Tim briefly considered just talking to Phantom and explaining things (with some omissions obviously) but after seeing his eyes flash an eerily familiar green he had frozen. It didn't help that Phantom was doting and scarily overprotective of his children. Some robotic rogue with a flaming green mohawk had threatened to harm them while they were out in the stroller and Phantom took off his head with ruthless cruelty. Tim wasn't taking his chances with a bad reaction so he has more or less resigned himself to living life as a one year old along side his "twin" until he can escape.

Meanwhile Danny is getting more and more concerned that the personality of one of his kids has changed. He had been a happy and bubbly baby until he suddenly became quiet and withdrawn. Had his kid been traumatized somehow? He watches them sleep together in thier crib and wonders...

Meanwhile the bats are cooing over baby "Tim" and doing all sorts of baby activities appropriate for a one year old. The sheer amount of baby clothes everyone buys is ludicrous and I greater theres at least three Nightwing themed outfits in the pile. At least.

Damian becomes jealous of all the time people are spending with "Tim" (especially grayson) and bullys the baby for it all the while causing the baby to cry and Damian to be scolded, which only fuels his ire.

After a week of this the bats confront the person who made the device that deaged RR and found out that Tims mind should not have reverted back to a child, only his body. Damian feels victorious and claims his brother must have been faking the entire time and confront "Tim" about it...but "Tim" doesn't change his behavior. He still acts like a normal baby.

After a while of this they decide to run a dna test just to be sure. The DNA test comes back positive...on half. This shocks everyone. They run the test several more times and have to come to terms with the fact that not only is Tim out there somewhere in the body of a defenseless 1 year old baby, but they somehow got his (future?) son with them instead.

Damian has to come to terms with the fact his been bullying a litteral infant this entire time and the shame that comes with that. (It wasn't any better when you thought it was a baby Tim and Jason points that out) Damian does some self reflection and tries to make amends.

[mutable-manifestation]

Imagining Danny just finding Batman lurking on a gargoyle or something and holding his finger juuuuuust barely not touching him.

Like. Gotham said to leave her knights alone? He is. He's not touching him. What? being nearby isn't "not leaving him alone" they can still choose not to interact with him. So what if he's in The Bat's personal space? He's THE Batman, her most preciousest number one Knight, surely he can find another way off of the gargoyle if he really wants to avoid him.

Batman turns around from his place on the gargoyle and nearly jumps out of his skin when he comes eye-to-finger with some skrungly kid who appeared out of nowhere??? (Danny has been floating slightly and holding his breath to avoid detection - because of course Gothi can only have completely human knights. GIW suck-up [he calls her this aloud once and three gargoyles crack off and fall nearly onto his head])

Lady Gotham and Phantom are friends- Lady Gotham and Phantom are coworkers/friendly to a degree with each other- Lady Gotham sees Phantom as her child adjacent blah blah blah

Consider the funnier option:

*Lady Gotham and Danny fucking hate each other.*

Danny takes two steps into the city and he can feel the city physically vibrating she wants him gone so badly. Unfortunately for her, Danny is a teenager that fought god (pariah dark) once and on a principle doesn’t listen to authority.

Just give me two city-spirits having the absolute worst beef with each other for no reason whatsoever.

Looking for a Fic:

It had bodyswap soulmates. Danny is pregnant, and when he swapped with tim, tim in Danny's body went into labor.

Found the fic it was deleted off of ao3, unfortunately.

[fox-guardian]

I am asking about the stoker swap au

In short, it's an AU in which Danny survives his encounter with The Stranger and goes to work at the institute instead of Tim! Tim is still alive, Danny has NO formal qualifications to be working at the institute, and Tim is So Stressed because he lied on his applications. Danny takes on Tim's role in the institute, while Tim gets increasingly worried for his safety <3 That part does not get easier when he actually moves down to the archives <3

and now because i was thinkin real hard about it and got bored of just typing roughly the same synopsis over and over again, HAVE SOME DOODLES TOO <3 three things i've already written and one i Really Want To Write So Badly But It's So Far Away <3

[ID: Four drawings on a soft lavender background featuring Magnus Archives characters. The first is a drawing of Danny Stoker after falling down a ladder leading up to an attic. He is dressed in academic clothing and is on his back, with his lower body still partially on the ladder. One foot is on a rung and the other is sticking out in the air. He looks to be in pain and he has swirls for eyes and little bees are flying around his head. Next to him are Jon, also dressed academically and holding Danny's coat, and an old woman wearing a black dress and a shawl. She looks at Danny with concern and Jon is startled by Danny's fall, visibly jolted.

The second drawing shows Danny and Sasha, both dressed academically, sitting at her desk looking at a computer screen. Danny is slouching with a horrified expression, while Sasha smiles, looking chipper. The computer is labelled "the horrors".

The third drawing shows Danny and Elias sitting across from each other at Elias' desk. They are both wearing black suits with ties and both have slicked back hair. Elias is smiling politely at Danny with his hands folded on the table, and Danny is smiling confidently back at him with his hands folded in his lap. Over the drawing is multiple faded drawings of Danny in different forms of panic. One has him sweating and screaming "I'm Doomed" with his hands in his hair, another has him looking oddly calm and posed like a corpse with a bouquet of flowers over his chest saying "This is the day I die", and the last one has him bent in half, laying face down in a puddle of tears, clawing at the floor, with his feet out in front on either side of him. "Crying noises" is written above him.

The last drawing is of Tim and Elias. Tim is gripping Elias by the lapels, yelling in his face with a furious and challenging expression, while Elias is sweating nervously and holding his hands up defensively, looking confused and afraid. His glasses are broken and bent and one of his eyes is swollen half-shut. end ID]

~~~~

the first two drawings are from danny's first field work outings with jon and sasha respectively, the third is from his first interview with elias, and the last is a scene i haven't written yet that takes place directly after the prentiss incident, in which tim confronts elias for putting his employees (read: danny) in danger and then punching him in the face <3

i really wanted to draw tim super mad because i never draw those kinds of expressions and i think he deserves to punch elias in the face <3 i don't think he'd be Quite like that in the written scene itself but it was v fun to draw

I have no specific question lol but im handing in this ask as a "talk about whatever you want" about the stoker swap bc!!! im v curious!!!

Tim loves Danny so much. His desire to protect his brother does not change in this au, if anything it gets more apparent since Danny is still there to be protected. He doesn't want Danny to have this job from the beginning, but he's an adult who did it behind Tim's back so he couldn't exactly stop him. From day one he's so hesitant and worried that Danny is gonna get in trouble, and once he starts doing field work in houses with potential gas leaks with no protocol in place to bring masks or anything, Tim gets worried for his safety.

By the time the institute gets starts to get worms, he's done. Parasites with a confirmed body count attacking his coworkers and showing up at the institute itself? And the big boss doesn't see any reason to worry that much? That's not safe, that's not a place that cares about his brother, Tim won't stand for it. He tells Danny to quit. He can't force him to, but he tries to get him to hand in a resignation. Danny won't, of course, even as afraid as he is. Though he doesn't yet know why he won't do it.

And once the prentiss incident actually happens and Tim shows up at the institute -- since he is Danny's emergency contact for when he gets hurt after all -- he finally meets Big Boss Bouchard who let this go on for so long, who let his brother get hurt, and let me tell you. I cannot WAIT to write that scene.

[sonrium]

The Batfam have known about Dick's 'Danny' persona for basically as long as they've known Dick. They act different, so they even have different relationships with them depending on who Dick is for the day. If 'Danny' shows up, after a fight with Dick, they think, 'dang. Just like Dick to swap personalities like a coward when he knows I'm right. Hey Danny, want to play some Mario Cart?'

From Danny and Dick's point of view, this seemed completely normal and have no idea that the Batfam haven't realized that they are two separate people, not personalities. Heck, they've even swapped places in the Nightwing suit at the watchtower a couple times.

At some point in their mid twenties, Tim came back from patrol early because he had some samples for an investigation to analyze and came face to face with Dick dragging the unconscious body of himself across the Batcave floor. "Hey Tim!"

Dick clearly misunderstands Tim's extended silence as he continues to drag the body in an exaggerated meandering path to the elevator.

"I know, I know. I should be using a fireman's carry, but he deserves a little rug burn after what he tried to pull, so that's what he gets. You should be grateful I brought his sorry butt all the way back here to put him to bed."

"Who is that?"

"Who do you think? Dolly Parton?" Dick rolls his eyes and continues dragging the body, then stops. "Actually, I've got a better idea." He starts dragging the body in a straight line to the giant T-rex.

"Did Ra's clone you?"

"I hope not? Once was more than enough." Dick, very confused, drops the legs of the body. It proves itself unconscious and not dead by groaning. Dick looked between the body, the T-rex's open maw, then Tim. "So you going to help me or what?"

Tim's mind was running a mile a minute, so his body was left on autopilot until it could catch up. He picked up the body's arms and chest, noting that it is indeed breathing and alive as he started to help Dick haul unconscious-Dick up the body of the T-rex.

When he spoke, all his mouth could come up with was "Who cloned you?" Because yes, that was the most important thing to be focused on at the moment.

"Billionaire fruit loop obsessed with turning me into his perfect son. Like Kon."

"I didn't know Danny was a clone." Tim looked down at the unconscious-Dick. No. Danny. And his mind finally started to piece a few things together. Danny and Dick were separate people. "For how long?"

"Didn't know you knew Dani. Did Kon tell you? And like 12 years, I think?" They reached the head and began shoving Danny into the mouth of the T-rex. They made sure none of the teeth would cause any damage, but Danny would definitely wake up with a heck of a backache.

Tim stared at the unconscious body. "No, but I'm surprised I didn't realize there were two of you unyil now. It seems so obvious."

They finished adjusting Danny so his arms were trapped using his own weight and the teeth like a straight jacket. "So what did Danny do to get this? I need to know so I don't do it."

Dick furrowed his eyebrows. "Nothing. I'M Danny. That's Dick. As for what he did, we were at our monthly hang out to chat and catch up, then he lived up to his name. Need I say more?"

Tim looked back at the unconscious Dick trying to recalibrate the whole conversation he just had and the last twelve years he's known the man, it was still wild to think about. "So you've been two people the entire time I've known you?"

"Wait wait wait. Back up." Danny waved his hands as if he could stop the very idea. "What are you talking about?"

"We thought Dick developed a split personality disorder as a coping mechanism, so we just rolled with it." Tim shrugged.

Danny choked then started laughing nearly falling off as they clambered down the T-rex. He clutched his stomach when he reached solid ground, not caring if the noise woke up Dick.

"You thought Dick and I were the same person? How? We stopped pretending to be each other when swapping places back when we turned 16. We weren't very good at it anyway. You call me Danny."

"Hey, that's what I was told, and it's not the weirdest thing about this family. Plus, I don't think we've ever seen both of you in the same place before now."

"Touché."

"So how did Dick transfer his separate personality into a clone?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You're his clone and separate personality. Wait. Unless the whole separate personality never happened."

"I'm not his clone. I'm his twin."

"Then who's the clone?!"

"Dani."

"But you're Danny."

"No. I'm Danny. My clone is 'Dani.' With an 'i'."

"That's confusing."

"Only if you're an idiot."

"Dani knows Kon?"

Danny suddenly let out the loudest gasp Tim had ever heard. A loud thunk and a groan sounded up above. "Danny... where am I?"

"Wait. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. That's not important." A truly wicked gleam entered Danny's eyes. Yup, there was no question who was who. Even though Danny was generally a lot more chill, Dick was always too straight forward to pull off that level of mischievous glee. "You said 'we'. Who else thinks I am Dick's second personality that he made because he is always one step away from having a psychotic break and turning into a homicidal maniac bent on destruction and chaos?"

"Everyone, as far as I know. Maybe Alfred knows because: Alfred. But that's it."

"They think what?" Danny and Tim ignore Dick as the shuffling from above grows more frantic.

"We have to use this. My next question is very important," Danny held Tim by his shoulders and stared deeply into his eyes like he was about to consume his soul. "How long can you keep quiet?"

Tim grinned back, "For entertainment like this, you couldn't pay me to talk."

"Excellent."

Dick crashed down next to them. "Danny, what did you do?!"

DCxDP idea: The old switcheroo

Based on this ask that got me thinking.

It's not well-known that Mary and John Grayson had identical twins. The reason is that Haly Circus had a strict rule about babies traveling with them. There could only be one at a time.

Jack Haly tried his best, but it had been a long-standing rule of the circus back when his grandfather first started the business, and since he enforced it onto everyone else, he couldn't make exceptions for the Flying Graysons even if the second boy wasn't planned.

There were a lot of reasons for this rule. The first was traveling, which was dangerous for the little ones: illness and unsafe equipment. The second reason they encountered more delays whenever they crossed borders was because people were suspicious of multiple children being moved about.

The last was that Fedrick Haly thought children were a distraction and would not stand for his performers to not be entirely focused on their acts. So the rule went up, and anyone displeased with it was welcome to leave. He later allowed for more than one child if the second board had to be at least ten years old before the other board was on its way.

The problem was that while a few people did leave, most had been born and raised in Haly's circus and couldn't imagine a world where they weren't part of it. Mary and John were in the second category, so they made a hard choice.

They gave up one of the twins to a lovely couple, Madeline and Jack Fenton, and tried not to think about him. They went as far as to leave themselves off of the boy's birth certification. This was a viewpoint the son they did keep,Dick, did not share.

The minute the circus Strong Man let it slip that he had a brother, Dick had tried tracking him down. He found an ally in Jack Haly himself, who had always hated his grandfather's rule and took him on an "educational" trip to America.

The Graysons didn't suspect anything, and the Fentons were also left in the dark because Jack H. was worried they would try to cause trouble among his people if they found out about Dick.

Danny Fenton, Dick's twin, swore to never tell anyone a thing. In his eyes, he saw it as tearing Dick's life apart when it was their parents who made the choice to get rid of him. He didn't even tell his sister or his best friend. He liked to think that one day, when they were older, the brothers would be able to be seen in public.

In the meantime, they shared secret letters as pen pals and would call each other once a month with the help of Haly. It wasn't much, but they built an unbreakable bond.

Then, the Graysons were killed when they were nine. Dick vanished from the face of the earth for a few months. They lost communication until Dick appeared in Danny's life again one year. It couldn't have come at a better time because Danny, who was used to Dick not responding without months-long gaps in between, was getting angsty that he hadn't heard from his brother.

Apparently, he was taken in by a billionaire who felt a kinship with him, as someone who also watched their parents die. Dick begs Danny to keep their connection a secret for a bit longer because if Bruce knew he had family, he would ship him off to the Fentons, and Dick would never bring their parent's killer to justice.

Danny didn't have the heart to tell him that he couldn't care less about Mary and John Grayson. He didn't even care that they were dead past the pain it caused his brother. After all, to Danny, they chose a career over him.

But he kept their connection a secret anyway. Despite what Dick believed, Danny knew that Bruce Wayne actually saw him as a son and that Dick slowly, over the years, thought of him as a father. Dick would later tell him that Bruce was Batman and he was Robin.

Both knew that Gotham needed the dynamic duo, so they kept their mouths shut. Danny later realized how important that was when he was turned into Phantom. He too had a city that needed protection.

One day Dick came to him with a proposal.

"We look exactly alike. Down to the mole on our left butt cheeks! No one would know if we switch places." Dick told him excitablely.

"I don't know Dick. I'm not exactly the best actor in the world." Danny started a little hesitant, but he eventually agreed because Dick worded it as a favor he needed desperately.

Danny would do anything for his twin. So he jumps on a plane and flies to Gotham, slipping into Dick's life quickly. He was trained to know people's names, faces, and even his school schedule, which were a part of Dick's life. There were only two things he wasn't prepared for.

Robin's training and the fact that the twins had very different personalities.

On Danny's first night out as Robin, he fell back on his powers to fight crime. He was lucky that Bruce had left Dick on his own for a month now, after years of arguing, and wasn't present to see Robin blast criminals with green rays. He was smart enough to stick to the shadows when people clearly out of his league were up to something- plus, fighting the bigger threats would expose his identity.

When they met up on a roof, Bruce turned to him with a commanding aura that had Danny standing up straighter.

"Robin, report," Bruce, in his Batman outfit, bit out.

After years of giving his parents oral lab reports, he quickly rattled off, "There were four mugging by the east docks, two break-ins at Old Gotham, and a suspected sighting of Joker at-"

Batman slaps him across the face, cutting Danny off. He gasps, clutching his face. "Ow! What the hell!?"

"You were being hysterical. Not once did you crack a joke or insult me. I think the Joker slipped you something." Bruce tells him seriously, tapping his communicator to let Agent A know they needed medical aid as soon as they arrived at the cave.

"What?" Danny demands

"Oh no. You didn't throw a flying kick at my crutch for that. It's worse than I thought. I'm going to have to sedate you." Danny doesn't have time to dodge or go intangible before Bruce leaps at him with a needle.

The following day, he was informed he would not be out on the field until whatever was in his system was cleaned out. The tests picked up his ectoplasm- but Bruce wasn't aware of what it was. Danny is ecstatic about it, getting comfortable in the house of old money and enjoying the world's finest had to offer.

Bruce was unsure why "Dick" was okay with not going out in the field when his angry determination to fight was the whole reason he became Robin. He also took him to a gala, and when he was telling him that the Robinsons had an enormous chandelier and "Dick" was not allowed to swing on it.

"Why would I want to do that?" Danny scoffs, missing the way Bruce's face paled. He was more worried about how obviously popular Dick was and all the people that were tripping over themselves to speak to him.

It was a nightmare.

In school, Dick was in all the advanced classes. Danny was a little worried until he realized without ghosts to fight and people not bullying him every second of the day (Dick was one of the popular kids!), he actually did really well. He enjoyed learning.

Gotham Academy was challenging and engaging in a way Casper High never was. He would go straight home after class, check in with Alfred or Bruce, and then just relax in one of the Wayne pools or in the video game rooms- they had the latest games and systems!

Bruce looked like he was having an aneurysm whenever Danny politely asked him about his day and thanked him for everything he did.

Thankfully, the two switched back after a week-long stay at Wayne Manor. Danny didn't think he could keep tricking Bruce or Alfred without getting caught.

"Did you enjoy your time with Bruce?" Dick asks him after they switch clothes.

"It was.....something. Your foster dad is weird." He tells him.

"Yeah? Well your dad is way too sentetive. He told me he loves me before bed and every morning at breakfast." Dick scoffs. "I still think he was on drugs."

Danny sighs "Well, at least it's over. I miss Sam and Tucker, though I am not looking forward to seeing Dash again."

"Oh, about that. You're suspended from school." Dick tells him casually. "You hit Dash Baxter with a chair after he and his little group surrounded you to shove you in a locker. Thankfully, the ugly one, Paulina, was recording everything because they liked to laugh at the videos, and you broke her hand when you stole her phone. After getting proof of self-defense, plus several other victims coming forward with the videos, the suspension is all you have. Dash is expelled."

Danny gapes at him as Dick winks. "Thanks for doing me a favor of providing the perfect window to protect my twin. Love you! Bye!"

Dick hops onto the plane before Danny can find any words. When he shows up to school, everyone jumps out of his way, eyeing him like he is one second away from telling Sam and Tucker not to come to school tomorrow.

He forgot that Dick has some.....unresolved anger issues. Every day, he is thankful the Graysons gave him away to a family that may be ghost-obsessed, but at least they knew how to process emotions.

Miles away, Bruce watches Robin launch himself with a scream of rage at a mugger and wonders if his son has developed split-personality disorder.

Years later, he tells everyone that Dick has a second personality called Danny, who occasionally slips in once and while. Everyone treats Danny as his own person, including Justice Leauge and his siblings.

Both twins forgot to come clean about each other even after they turned eighteen. They thought the Waynes figured it out because the Fentons did when Dick switched again a few months after Dash got expelled.

It was the fact Dick laughed when his meal came to life, thinking it hilarious. Jack and Maddie were more than happy to have a second son, incredibly one open to ghost research. He did argue a lot about ghost rights, but it was better than Jazz and Danny, who wanted nothing to do with it.

Welcome to the FelineBlog

Meowdy-Hey! Name's Morgan. She/Her. 20s.

I am both an artist and a writer - art tag is #feline-art. writing tag is #feline-writes

My main interest is Sonic the Hedgehog, though I'm currently going through a major Danny Phantom(&Batman) kick.

On the Sonic side of things, I got me this whack-ass AU I call the 4 Hiveminds of the Apocalypse AU – or just #4HMotA – focused on the Black Arms(Renamed to Braex Aurdit. Lots of weird alien-sounding names & words going on here.), expanding their lore, getting some gods involved, etc. even got a whole [WorldAnvil] dedicated to it.

Meanwhile, in DPxDC land, I've submitted a bunch of writing prompts to user StealingYourBones and elaborated on a handful of them, as well as made continuations to various other prompts.
