Danny in Central City,,, hot single dad Danny (de-aged Ellie and Dante) and Wally bumping into him and being absolutely enamored. I am so normal and average and normal about them.

Wally: He's smart, cute, and funny, and he's good with his kids. I just- I can't do anything in front of him without tripping over my own two feet!

Dick: Have you considered - and this is gonna sound crazy - asking him out on a date.

Wally who's usually confident when it comes to flirting because he knows what he's got, but Danny just makes him Feel Things. Warm and tingly and a million butterflies all at once. After every interaction he's kicking himself cause he's can't seem to stop stumbling over his words and c'mon get a grip West!

Also Ellie is 100% trying to play matchmaker meanwhile Dante is the biggest hater out there. He's going to make Wally WORK for the right to date Danny.

"Magic Isn't Real"

Dpxdc Prompt #53

There was a new hero in Central City, one who wasn't a speedster, but instead rumored to be a ghost. Many on the Justice League breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this new hero would finally convince the speedsters that magic did in fact exist, a longstanding debate.

Little did they know, despite being a "magic" being himself, Phantom was even more insistent than the Flash that any supernatural abilities he had could be explained by science and science alone.

——————————————————————————————————

"Aren't you a ghost? Why don't you believe in magic?"

"I'm an ectoplasmic entity, actually. Ghost is just the nickname for my species because we're intangible, invisible, capable of flight, and form after death."

"You said one of your previous rogues could grant wishes, isn't that like textbook magic?"

"Obsessions are a powerful thing, and Desiree's (as well as any other ghost's) powers can fully be explained by science. There just hasn't been enough funding put into the research of ectobiology for us to have discovered everything about it. "Magic" is just science we don't understand yet."

"First the speedsters and now you? What is it about Central City that makes you all skeptics!"

"Well all of us got our powers as the result of experiments so..."

I absolutely love the "Danny and people from his late life reincarnated into DC universe", because it has SO MUCH POTENTIAL

Like, Danny could reincarnate as Darkside and some human son, and Sam and Tucker as children of high members of the Apokolips army

So, when the three of them become 14, they start to gain their memories from their past lives. It gets to a point where, as the three of them have fascinating memories of Earth, they go there with a "we are old enough to start to do missions out of apocalypse, dad", and then they three go to Earth.

The problem is: they, recognized in all the galaxy as the legendary royal trio of Apokolips, traveling in an infiltration ship to Earth, a planet that literally everyone knows that Darkside wants to conquer, gain too much attention (all the green lanterns are ready to stop the ship in any sign that they are going to attack) (the justice league is absolutely ready to stop the beginning of a total war between them and Darkside, with all backup plans possible in hand)

Imagine their faces when, Danny, Sam and Tucker just land on firm earth, dress human normal teenager clothes and just go like, and start to explore all the type of things in the first city they see

It could go anywhere from here, the first city could be Central City, and Bart would just go straight to them and immediately be their friend (he is from the future and knows these tree legends too damn well, he wouldn't waste the chance of becoming their first human friend)

Or they could end up in Gotham, and we all know what happens with teenagers that show up with the trauma level "I grew up in Apokolips"

If you could live in one DC city, which one would you choose? Star City? Central City? Metropolis? Gotham? Or a different one?

All of them have their pros and cons

Star City

- Pros: the Arrowfam

- Cons: Ollie's chili

Central City/Keystone

- Pros: more mentally stable Rogues gallery

- Cons: the Midwest

Metropolis

- Pros: not Gotham

- Cons: gotta buy a new car every week the way they get thrown through your office

Smallville

- Pros: Kon

- Cons: corn

Gotham

- Pros: grunge vibes

- Cons: Gotham

Every city is protective of their heroes/vigilantes

However may the gods, demons, devils and all mighty entities save your soul if you dare to insult Flash or Shazam cause Central and Fawcett City will make up for any extreme violence their heroes lack

Sports Team Logos for DC Comics Cities

Used Photopea and took some liberties with the names.

Fictional Etymology

The Knights⚾️: The Knights initially attributed their name to Gotham's history as an English colony though the double entendre was not lost on them, especially since the infamous "Gotham Nights" have become synonymous with the crime capital.

The Meteors🏈⚾️: Alliteration 🤷‍♀️.

The Spartans🏐: Gateway City possesses the largest collection of Greek artefacts outside of Greece and have a reputation for producing gold-medal-winning Olympians, inspiring the name of Gateway's Pro Volleyball team; the "Spartans".

The Sab-Cats⚽️: The Sab-Cats are a NWSL team born out of a social initiative by community centres in Star City using sport to keep youths away from crime. Recently turned professional, the team honours its mutual aid roots by adopting the Anarchist symbol of the "Sab-Cat".

The Velocity🏈: Keystone City has long been a hub of transport manufacturing, from automobiles to aircraft. The Velocity began as an amateur factory workers' football team in the 1940s, with its name referring to the cars these workers assembled.

The Cheetahs🏈: Initially named the "Central City Cougars", after the wildcat historically present in Missouri, the NFL team more recently renamed itself after the speedy African Cheetah in honour of its then residential speedster, the second Flash, following the first Crisis.

The Cosmos🏀: Before its destruction, Coast City was known along the West Coast as a melting pot of diversity, and its former NBA team derived its name, "Cosmos", from the word "Cosmopolitans".

The Bloodhounds⚾️: Before harmful radiation, Blüdhaven was plagued with corruption, often enabled by its police force. Some suspect strings were pulled for this former MLB team to adopt a blue kit and a common police dog as a mascot. Maybe it's a coincidence?

notes: female reader. Villain reader. Villain name never mentioned. Race or appearance of reader never mentioned.

a/n: dude I was minding my business when this scenario popped into my head and now I just have to share it with the world. Enjoy!

———

Being chained up to a chair with his feet being bound together isn’t how Bart thought he’d spend his Friday night.

He wasn’t even supposed to be in Gotham. He protects Central City with Wally. Kinda. Wally doesn’t really like Bart as a sidekick. He was more of Max Mercury’s sidekick.

Max was probably worried out of his mind. He just really hoped Max wouldn’t show up or try to look for him, or else he’d find something he doesn’t need to know.

Bart has a secret. A secret crush on a certain Batman villain. Ever since he had to fight her with the young justice team, he was smitten.

His favorite pass time is running to Gotham city and foiling her plan before heading off to go hang out with Tim.

She would always catch him, she always did. And he would always let her. He loved it. A game of cat and mouse.

He loved watching her smile in victory as she caught him. He loved watching her integrate him. And he especially loved annoying her.

Like right now. He could vibrate his molecules and get out of the ropes, but what’s the fun in that?

She had caught him by freezing the ground and him falling into a trap she had made. She than knocked him out and tied him to a chair.

She stood in front of him with a scowl. She didn’t enjoy this game as much as he did. Her mask had been removed, giving Bart a few look at her face. She stared him down before smiling.

“Butch you can leave.�� You said to your guard standing by the door. He left and closed the door, leaving the room in a dark cast.

The lights from outside the windows cast shadows across your features. The only other light was a small one back behind Bart, giving him the tiniest bit light to see your face.

“Impulse.” You stated “why do you always pop up and ruin everything?” You asked, no malice in your tone, Bart noted. Only curiosity.

“Well when you’re about to do something bad it’s kinda my job to come stop you.” Bart said as he smiled at you.

“Hmm” you hummed as you moved to a table full of weapons.

You grabbed a knife and turned to face him. Bart watched as you walked up to him slowly before leaning down to be at his eye level.

“You know,” you started with a sly smile “usually, I’d let you off with a warning. Maybe a slap on the wrist.” You whispered to him as you raised the knife to his face.

“but today you didn’t just mess up my plan. No.” You whispered with fake sorrow. You dragged the knife against his jaw, causing Bart to let out a breath. “You messed up the Bane’s plan too.”

Bart sucked in a breath. He didn’t know that. Obviously, he could put run Bane, but that didn’t change the fact that he was scared of him.

“Yea so, now I have to teach you a real lesson Impulse. Either with me or Bane. Take your pick.”

“Oh I’d much rather be punished by you.” Bart said as he wiggled his eyebrows up and down.

Your smile turned to an annoyed look. “Suit yourself.” You dug the knife at his neck, not hard enough to break skin but hard enough to hurt.

Bart winced in pain, but another idea popped into his head. Acting like his name, he impulsively took action.

“So what do you do when you’re not trying to kill me?” He asked teasingly. The smirk on his face prevalent.

Your face slipped for a minute before the walls were back up again. “Is that really what you’re asking right now?” You asked dumbfounded.

“Well,” he started staring you right in the eyes, you could finally see the color of them. A nice golden brown. “I figured since your bodyguard wasn’t in here anymore, we could get to know each other a little more.” He smiled seductively.

Your blush was very noticeable, especially since your mask was off. “But- stop trying to distract me from your punishment.” You said sternly, though Bart was not convinced.

“Well I normally wouldn’t let someone tie me up the first official date, but you’re a special exception.” Bart winked. “So, at least tell me about yourself, since I’m being so nice.” He looked at you with faux innocence. You won’t lie, the look on his face was turning you on. You had to figure out a way to have him keep the look on his face.

You quickly remember that Bane would have your head if you didn’t take care of Impulse. Your need for survival trumped the need between your legs.

“That’s a vague question.” You say as you resume moving your knife against his neck, watching the goosebumps that it leaves in its wake.

“Huh?” Bart asked.

“Thats a vague question. Be specific. What did you want to know?” You ask as your knife slowly pierces the skin of his neck.

He hisses at the pain, before almost chocking on air. You moved your head towards his neck and licked the blood off of his neck. Bart stares at you, completely turned on and kinda scared.

You watched as the cut immediately healed itself, leaving no scar. You notice his shocked staring and laugh.

“How about a deal? Every question I answer, you have to answer one of mine. Deal?” You asked as you made the same innocent look he had given you earlier.

He nodded dumbly and you smiled.

“So too fast too furious, what’s your question?” You asked him.

“What’s your name?” He asked, his smile returning.

Your knife continued on its path across his neck going up to his jaw line.

“Y/N” you said as your knife gently touched his jaw line. He breathed out, liking the sensation of it gently touching him. “Your turn.” He tells you.

“Why do you heal so fast?” You asked as he breathed deeply. You were genuinely curious.

“Super fast metabolism.” he breathed as your knife made its way to the end of his suit by his neck.

Your knife gently teared the spandex, revealing more skin to slice at. His skin was incredibly soft. Slightly tan with freckles all over the part of his now exposed shoulder.

“Why are you working for Bane?” He asked. You weren’t really a villain in his eyes. More of an anti hero. You didn’t really harm people. You helped bad guys though, but you didn’t seemed fond of that.

“Cause I have to.” You said, still mesmerized by the goosebumps you were creating on his supple skin.

He figured he can ask you about it another day. Right now he didn’t want anything to stop you from dragging the knife all over him.

“Why do you always come to Gotham? I thought you and the flash protect Central City. That’s like two states away.” You say you start to cut the skin of his shoulder gently.

He breathes out a whine as it hurts. You try not to focus on the way that noise made you feel.

“What do you think sweetheart? Why am I here?” You might have been intimidated by his words if you weren’t meant to be torturing him.

You grabbed him by the hair and pushed his head back fast. He whined again and stared at you in shock.

“I asked you a question, speedy!” You say, giving him a dangerous look.

He stares at you in shock and overwhelmed lust. You smirk and decide to sit on his lap instead of kneeling on the floor.

You let go of his hair and go back you his shoulder. Watching the blood drip down a little. You saw the cut had healed and just to turn him on more, you lean down and lick the blood up his shoulder. You lick a little higher than where the blood stopped just to mess with him.

“Because I wanted to see you.” He states. Blushing madly.

You look up at him, and look through his goggles into his eyes. You saw shame and embarrassment. He’s telling the truth.

You won’t lie, that statement might have made your day, hell, your week. You try to hide the smile on your face but miserably fail. You had a lot of body image issues growing up and were bullied heavily, it was nice to find out someone actually wanted to see you, not just for a business deal.

“Your turn.” You tell him, still a little giddy.

“Why do you always kidnap me?” He asked with a handsome smile.

“You always try to stop me. So why not just stop you before you can?” You say as you pick your knife back up and continue your assault of his skin.

your hand pulls down the fabric a bit that had been cut on his shoulder, revealing part of his chest.

Bart sucks in a breath. Waiting for your next move.

“Why aren’t you actually hurting me?” Bart asked. You looked up at Impulse.

“Do you want me to actually hurt you?” You whisper as your kinda gently trails down from his shoulder.

“No.” He said as the cool knife hits his chest.

“I’m not gonna hurt cause I don’t want to.” You say turning back to work.

“But won’t the henchmen outside notice I’m not hurt?” Bart asked.

“What do you mean?” You asks as you slice a tiny shallow part of his right pec.

Bart makes a small whimper at the sensation, as another better idea pops into his head.

“Like don’t people who are tortured usually scream and make noise?” He asks in a seductive voice.

Your knife stopped moving again and you look at him and see his eyes blown out with lust. Your mind made a decision before you could stop yourself. You leaned down and licked up the blood before dragging your tongue up his shoulder to his neck, before sucking on the skin of his neck.

Bart moaned as he leaned more into your touch. The noise he made went straight to your core.

You pulled back, a tiny bit of blood on the corner of your mouth. Your hands went into Impulses hair and you gently tugged, causing him to leg out another whine. You moved your sitting position so that your legs were straddling his.

“Yea. I suppose they do. You wanna help me make this sound real?” You ask as your hand move onto his face, pushing his goggles up so you can see his eyes.

“Yes.” Bart says as he felt his dick harden against your thigh.

“Good boy.” You say before leaning in to kiss Bart.

This is what I've been saying this whole time. Central City and Keystone are on a whole different level.

The Rogues survive Central City and Keystone because they are a team. They have each other's backs and they have rules and they know the game.

Trying to pull off a solo crime in the Flash's territory? Good fucking luck. I'll make you a reservation in Iron Heights 0.003 seconds from now.

I’ll be the first to admit that DC has a lot of downfalls that Marvel doesn’t. There’s a reason Nightwing ain’t a household name but your grandma has a crush on Harry Osborn.

But holy shit, our geography? So much better than theirs.

What do you mean every single hero, villain, and morally gray weirdo is located in NYC?? Huh?? You’re telling me none of the gazillion heroes noticed (one of) the freaky ninja assassin cults fully operating in their own city?

At least in DC, we get variety. Sure, most of our fictional cities are based on like three real ones (one of them is also NYC), but they exist as separate, distinct places in-universe. AND they all have different vibes!!

Teen Lantern's First Superbowl

Superbowl Sundays are always a riot with the Lanternfam because Guy insists on making it a whole event and gets enough pizza and wings and beer to feed the entire Justice League. He and Simon have a thing where, no matter who's playing, they'll aggressively root for opposite teams. They are adamant that the competitive spirit is essential.

None of the other Earth Lanterns understand what the hell they're on about. It's not even a former football player thing because John isn't like this. They pray that there won't be a Ravens vs. Lions Superbowl within their lifetimes because if hometown loyalty was also factored in, Guy and Simon's combined energy might well kill someone.

Guy used to host the event at his Warrior Bar in New York before it got trashed, after which the location rotated between John's apartment and Alan's house. This year however, the Lanterns had all moved into the expanded Sector House after adopting Keli, so there was no question about whose living room was getting taken over.

It also meant however, that someone was going to have to explain to the kid why Guy and Simon were going to be screaming at the television and each other.

While the rest of the Lanterns ranged from normal sports enjoyers (Alan and John) to mildly interested in the outcome (Hal, Jo, Jessica) to "I'm just here for the food" (Kyle and Carol), they'd all grown up in the United States and thus had a level of cultural familiarity with football that Keli didn't.

John tried to explain the rules of the game but was quickly drowned out by Guy cheering on the Central City Cougars while Simon shouted the team cheer for the Metropolis Meteors. Keli was more entertained by their antics than the actual game itself.

(The Meteors won in overtime. Simon did a victory dance on the couch while Guy laid facedown on the floor. Keli laughed so hard she nearly threw up all the pizza she ate.)
