Dick and wally were sitting at the wayne family dinner table with their joint families announcing their engagement. Just before desert their was a knock on the front door. Alfred went to tend to it. Nobody thought anything of it till Alfred came back to dinning room with a large meta with him and two scruffed young kids hanging from his hands.
"I believe you have a guest master dick, master wally." Alfred said looking at the red head with a bit of judgment.
"You." The large meta with a goatee and flaming seemingly flaming hair. Motioned to wally with one of the kids who protested. "Well shit you are all here." He looked around the table. "Good I only need to do this once then hopefully. Quit fucking with the time stream." He ignored the throat clearing of the butler and the half raised from the seat posture of most of the dinners guests. "I'm tired of cleaning up all these timeline collapses you speedsters cause. So here is the deal." He sat the protesting kids down in to wally's lap. By phasing through the table. "I'm going to pull all your kids who would cease to exist from the now failed timelines and drop them all in your laps. And I don't care how many it ends up being. You want to cause me problems. You're getting all of yours 10 fold." As he backed out of the table. He pointed an accusing finger at the speedsters. "Do not try me! Oh and By the way. Congratulations on your engagement." He gave a rough pat to alfreds back. "Thanks old man." And then he vanished from sight.
The bats stared at the speedsters. "Care to explain that?"
"Who was that guy?"
"OH my god I'm a dad!" Wally said in shock looking down at his two kids. Ignoring Barry arguing with half the bat clan.
"What are your names?" Dick said all smiles at the two little kids sitting in wallys lap.
"Jai"
"Iris"

Ghosts in Gotham
Tumblr media
Danny Phantom / DC Comics
Dedicated To: @psychovigilantewrites​
Description: The Batfamily has been through their fair share of the supernatural. That’s why they originally weren’t worried whenever ghosts started showing up in Gotham City. Until one day, something happens; Batman is captured and taken into the Ghost Zone. With no way to go in there themselves, with no way to fight the ghosts inside, the bats decide to call the person who can; Danny Phantom. Together, Danny takes Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown and Damian Wayne into the Ghost Zone before the Batman is lost forever.
Word Count: 3523
Ch 1 Ch 2 Masterlist
Chapter 3:
_
Danny could deal with a lot.
He'd dealt with dying. He'd dealt with becoming a ghost. He'd dealt with ghosts trying to kill him. He'd dealt with finding out that his dad's best friend wasn't only a halfa like him, but that he wanted to get with his mom. He'd dealt with ghost prison. He'd dealt with finding out he'd been cloned. He'd dealt with finding a future in which everyone he loved was dead and he himself was evil. He'd even dealt with girls.
He thought he could deal with anything.
But being stuck a small space with Damian Wayne and Tim Drake?
He wasn't so sure he could deal with that.
"You incompetent creature, why on earth are you listening to a C-average oaf instead of me?"
"Because the 'oaf' has been here before. We haven't."
"I possessed more intelligence than you and Fenton combined whenever I was four years old, and I have memorized the Infi-map. I am completely capable of commanding this voyage."
Danny's eye twitched at the arguing. It was worse than he and Jasmine. "Does it ever end?" he asked Stephanie through gritted teeth. The blonde sighed.
"Damian feels like he has to prove that he's superior to Tim," she explained. "It's not my place to tell you exactly why, but it's true. And he knows exactly how to get under Tim's skin."
"So.. no?"
"No."
Danny groaned. "It's giving me a headache." He perked up as he saw the island in front of him. "Hey, guys," he said, "We're here."
They had reached the lair of Clockwork. Clockwork was the master of time and could see into any timeline and all of the possible outcomes. Danny had the idea of asking him if he could show them the moment in which Bruce Wayne had disappeared, in the hopes that they could see which ghost it was.
It was a long shot, but it was the only idea Danny could think of.
Tim and Damian had stopped their arguing, unbuckling their seat belts as Danny landed the Speeder on the grounds of the lair.
"So this guy can tell us who took Bruce?" Stephanie asked as she opened the door, stepping on to the ground. Danny nodded.
"Yeah. I can't promise he'll help, but it's our best bet."
The foursome walked towards the massive clocktower, Damian walking in step with Danny as he gripped his sword. Danny knocked on the door, and it opened with a creak.
"Hello, Danny," a voice said. "And hello, Bats." Clockwork floated down. He was a small ghost, purple in color with a darker purple cloak.
"Whaddup, Clockwork," Danny greeted. "Long time no see." He heard Stephanie laugh at the pun behind him and then heard her grunt as Damian elbowed her.
"It has not been long to me, Danny," Clockwork replied. His eyes drifted over the group. "What do you want?"
"I assume that you know, Time Master," Damian answered before Danny could open his mouth, stepping forward until he was right beside a swirling vortex, although his eyes remained on the ghost. "We are looking for my Father, and Phantom says you can help."
"Damian Wayne," Clockwork said curtly. "Son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al’ Ghul. I understand that you are worried about your father, but I would suggest you step back before you see something you don't want to."
Danny was surprised to see that Damian obeyed. He narrowed his eyes. Clockwork almost seemed... nervous? "What aren't you telling us?"
"You are indeed a smart boy," Clockwork chuckled, "I hope you also can deduce that you were not brought here on accident. I was originally going to go and tell you myself, however, I have seen that it would be better for you to have Stephanie Brown, Tim Drake and Damian Wayne at your side."
"What's wrong?"
"Something has happened," Clockwork turned around, clasping his hands behind on his back as he floated further off. "The Observants have underestimated your power," he turned back around, locking his gaze with Danny's. "The power you have not yet gained."
Danny's face paled. "You don't mean-"
"That is all I can say," the ghost interrupted. "Leave now. I have work to do. I have to stop a little boy with a powerful watch from destroying his timeline."
Danny, however, couldn't move. He was frozen, his eyes wide. There was no way. He was locked in a thermos, with no possible way for a ghost to escape.
Although, that ghost wasn't just any ghost.
"What do you mean by that?" Damian demanded. "Tell us more. Now."
Clockwork looked at the boy with humor in his eyes. "Mr. Wayne, you should not threaten me." He waved his hand. "Now go. You do not have much... time."
Danny shook his head and turned around, walking towards the exit in a trance-like state. With a glance at Clockwork, the others followed, with Damian at the rear. Before he could leave, Clockwork called his name.
"Damian, listen closely," he said, shifting into an older ghost as he spoke. "You will one day get an offer. It will be a tempting offer, one that you will not want to refuse," his eyes darkened. "Do not accept it."
Damian blinked, before strutting outside to follow the others, not responding to Clockwork's warning.
Tim, Stephanie, and Danny were already on the ship as Damian walked out. As he opened the door to step in, he tuned into the conversation.
"So, you're telling us that an evil version of you exists outside of time, and it has Bruce," Tim said slowly. Danny nodded.
"We call him Dark Danny. In the alternate timeline, he- or, I, I guess -watched our family die. He couldn't handle the pain and guilt, so he had Vlad Masters- bad guy, by the way, deck him if you ever see him at a rich-person party -turn him into a full ghost, getting rid of the human side completely. It drove him mad, and without his human side, he was the most powerful ghost in the Ghost Zone. He destroyed the world."
"How did you defeat him?" Damian asked, pulling a capri-sun out of his cooler as he listened. Danny ran a hand through his hair.
"I don't know. Dumb luck, honestly. I guess I have a power that he didn't get until years later, and it knocked him off his game so I could take him down." He grimaced. "I probably wouldn't have beat him if I hadn't surprised him. He took down all of the other ghosts in the Ghost Zone by that point,"
"He must've taken out the Justice League, too," Stephanie mused, crossing her arms. "You said you didn't see them anywhere, right? The only reason they wouldn't have been fighting him is if..." she trailed off.
"We can defeat him," Damian said, crushing the capri-sun in his hand as he finished. "If Phantom can defeat him, then with our help, we can, too."
"Yeah, but like I said, it was only because I surprised him," Danny pointed out.
"Then let's surprise him again," Tim said. He took out the Infi-map. "Danny, who's your worst enemy here? If we can get them to help, and that might knock Dark Danny off his game."
"Pariah Dark," Danny answered instantly. "But that's a terrible idea, trust me," he paused, thinking. "We do need backup, and I know of at least two who could help." He turned his body intangible before Tim could respond, and flew out of the Speeder. He landed in front of it, and putting both of his fingers in his mouth, he whistled. "Come here, Cujo!"
It took a few seconds, but a small green dog zipped in front of Danny, jumping in his arms and knocking him over. Danny smiled widely as he scratched behind Cujo's ears.
"Hey, little guy!" he laughed as the dog licked his face. "I missed you too! You down for an adventure?" Cujo barked, wagging his tail. "I'll take that as a yes," Danny said, phasing back into the Speeder.
"Guys," he said, setting the dog down. "I'd like you to meet Cujo, the best boy in the entire Ghost Zone."
Damian's eyes lit up behind his mask, kneeling down and hugging Cujo as the dog barreled into him, not paying attention as Tim spoke.
"Don't get me wrong, he's adorable, but he doesn't look like he can pack a punch," he said, watching the dog fondly.
"Trust me, he's a fighter," Danny assured him. Tim nodded.
"If you say so, but man, I wish I had a dog," He walked over to where Damian was, scratching Cujo's back. Damian scowled, pulling the dog closer.
"Get back, Drake, Cujo clearly prefers me over you."
"Damian, come on, you have so many pets and I don't have any-"
"You have Bart."
"Bart is not my pet-"
"He is the human version of an Australian Shepherd minus the intelligence-"
As the two bickered, Danny looked at Stephanie. "Damian likes animals?" Stephanie laughed.
"Oh you have no idea, he has a dog, a cat, a cow-"
"A cow?"
"His name is Bat-Cow!" Damian snapped from where he had begrudgingly let Tim hold the dog.
"I love everything about that," Danny laughed. "That's the best name." Damian looked at Tim with a smug look on his face.
"See, Drake? Bat-Cow is a great name."
"I never said it wasn't!"
Danny started to ask Stephanie a question before he heard a crash and the Speeder lurched to the side.
"We've been hit!" Tim yelled, jumping off of the floor and grabbing the Speeder's controls, trying to steady the craft. Danny merged out of the Speeder and narrowed his eyes as he saw the culprit.
A gray ghost in black armor with flaming hair sneered, his arm smoking from where he had shot the Speeder. "Whelp," he growled.
"Nice to see you too, Shorty!" Danny said in a mock-cheerful tone. "Here to kill me? Because you didn't have to shoot the ship, you could've just yelled 'I am Skulker, and you are my prey! Prepare to die!'" he lowered his voice as he imitated the bounty hunter. "And then I would say something witty back, and I would pound you into the ground."
"You aren't the only prey this time, Ghost Child." Skulker answered with a menacing grin.
"You after the Bats?" Danny asked with a raised eyebrow. "If you were trying to kill them, you did a crappy job of it. That blast didn't kill anyone."
"That's the point. I think it'd be fun to beat the proteges of Batman, so they need to be alive and able to fight." he pointed downwards, and Danny followed his gaze, before swooping down to follow.
Somehow, he hadn't noticed that the Speeder was plummeting down to the island below. While the Specter Speeder was durable enough to keep from dying on impact, he didn't want them to crash.
He hurled himself in front of the Speeder, and crossing his arms, made a force  field that surrounding the Speeder. Danny grunted at the exertion, gritting his teeth as he tried to keep the force field surrounding the heavy ship.
The ship still crashed with a loud bang, leaving a large crater around it, but the ship itself was intact. Danny dropped his arms and fell to his knees, exhausted.
The door opened, and his three companions stepped out. "Nice one!" Stephanie praised, and Danny gave her a thumbs-up as he tried to catch his breath. He felt somebody nudge his shoulder, and he saw Damian standing above him with a capri-sun in his hand.
"Drink this," he said, handing Danny the drink. "Do not waste it. I can destroy you."
"Thanks," Danny panted as he poked the straw into the pouch. Damian nodded stiffly.
"Hate to interrupt," Tim said, helping Danny to his feet. "But that that Iron Man wannabe is headed this way."
Danny finished his drink and threw it over his shoulder as his fists lit up with a green aura, ignoring Damian's huff of protest at the littering.
Skulker chuckled as he cracked his knuckles. "Well, look at that," he sneered, "Not a scratch on you! I'm impressed."
"You? Impressed? Who would've thought," Danny said, narrowing his eyes.
Tim pulled out a bo-staff, twirling it around as Damian unsheathed his sword. Stephanie moved to stand beside Danny as she gripped her eskrima sticks.
"Oh, you will soon be impressed yourself," Skulker said as his arms morphed into guns. "You see, I-" he was cut off with a grunt as Danny rushed forward and sent a strong right-hook into his face.
Skulker flew back a few yards before finding his feet again. He glared at Danny. "That was low even for you Ghost Boy. Interrupting me I monologue."
Danny shrugged. "What can I say? It’s the same reason why I’m failing Chemistry; I have a short attention span.” He grinned. "But he doesn't!"
While they had been talking, Damian had managed to get behind Skulker. He jumped into the air, drop-kicking the ghost, sending him to the ground with a thud. Danny picked Skulker up and gave him an uppercut, launching him into the sky.
Skulker shook his head, steadying himself, and shot a barrage of ectoblasts at the four heroes below. Danny made his body intangible while the others, used to being shot at, dodged the blasts with ease. Tim shot his grappling hook at Skulker, wrapping the cord around his leg and pulling him back to the ground.
Tim swung the cord, launching Skulker to the side where his body was met by two hits of Stephanie's eskrima sticks. Skulker merged through the cord and landed on the ground, his teeth grinding together in fury.
"Enough!" he shouted, and sent a shock wave from his arms that blew them back. "I am sick of your pathetic attempts at besting me, whelp! When will you learn that you cannot best the Ghost Hunter!"
"Uh, kind of hard to learn that after I've beaten you, like, every single time we've fought," Danny retorted, putting his hands on his hips with a smirk.
Skulker's eye twitched. "My employer said to bring you in alive, but I don't think he'd mind you all missing a few limbs." His arms morphed into missile launchers, and he held them out at the four.
"Phantom, you possess electrokinesis, correct?" Damian asked quietly, tensing his muscles. Danny nodded.
"Yeah." He met Damian's eyes and smirked as he realized what the younger boy had in mind.
Damian grabbed on to Danny's arm, and, turning them both intangible and invisible, Danny carried Damian into the air, right above Skulker. One of Danny's hands crackled with electricity, and the tip of his fingers brushed against Damian's sword. The blade lit up like a taser. Damian and Danny exchanged a glance and, using Danny's shoulder for leverage, Damian jumped, free-falling towards Skulker.
By the time Skulker saw Damian, it was too late. Damian jabbed his electrified sword into Skulker's armor.
"Oh, crud," Skulker muttered as his armor crackled with electricity, before short-circuiting and launching him into the sky and out of sight.
"Nice one, Damian!" Danny floated to the ground, a wide smile on his face. He raised his hand for a high five. "Up top!"
"Tt. The act of high-fiving is such a ridiculous notion," Damian muttered, but he smacked his hand against the other's anyways. "You did quite well yourself."
"That guy-" Tim popped his shoulder back into place, wincing. "-does not pass the vibe check."
Stephanie snorted. "That guy is the vibe check, Timbers."
Damian sheathed his sword. "I assume that we all have gathered that his employer was Dark Danny?" It was more a statement than a question.
"Oh, for sure," Danny said, before stumbling as Cujo barreled into him. Danny huffed as he lifted the dog to his face. "Where were you, big guy?"
"Are you sure this dog can help us take Future-You down?" Stephanie asked with a raised eyebrow. "A fat lot of help he just was."
"I think he was just sleeping," Danny said as he sat the dog down. "I promise he'll be useful."
"Ship looks pretty good, considering," Tim said from where he was looking at the Specter Speeder. "I think whatever he hit us with just killed the engine. It should start back up."
Danny frowned, a finger on his chin as he pondered aloud. "So if Future-Me has employed Skulker, then he's gotta be somewhere that Skulker has access to. His lair, maybe? But I doubt it. They'd need to be somewhere with some pretty high-tech stuff if they're keeping Batman hostage."
"Are there any technology-related ghosts?" Stephanie asked. Danny didn't answer at first as he watched Tim switch the Speeder on.
"Yes," Danny finally answered. "There is, but I doubt he knows who he's working for. Skulker probably doesn't know either." Danny paused, and the smallest hint of a smile ghosted across his face as another thought struck him. "And I bet Skulker's girlfriend knows even less than that."
_
"So you're tellin' me Skulker's working for Future You? Who took away my voice and my beauty?" A ghost with pink, flaming hair in a high ponytail asked. "Now why the heck would you do that for? I thought we were cool."
"We are. This guy is me from another timeline. He isn't me." Danny explained to Skulker's girlfriend. Ember McLain, the Ghost of Song, crossed her arms, her lips turning into a frown.
"No way he would work with someone who wronged me like that. He would never."
"He doesn't know," Tim spoke up. "He probably just offered him money, or whatever currency you use, in exchange for taking Danny and us."
The Infi-map had taken the four to Ember's lair. If anybody could convince Skulker to stop, Danny had reasoned, it would be her.
"With you, Skulker, Cujo and Wulf on our side, we can beat him," Danny said. "Seeing Skulker and I work together might trip him up," he paused. "You do want to beat this guy, right? I mean, he will end up destroying your voice." Even though Ember might not care about the human world being obliterated, she would definitely care about the same thing happening to her voice.
Stephanie and Damian had stayed in the Speeder with Damian. Stephanie's eyes were wide behind her cowl. "Damian, that's Ember McLain," she whispered. "Remember that song Remember from a couple of years ago? The one Jason wouldn't stop singing on patrol? She sang it! And she's a ghost!"
"Of course she is a supernatural being, Brown, I told you she had the voice of a siren," Damian whispered back.
"I'll talk to him," Ember agreed. "He'll listen to me. You guys go find Wulf, and we'll meet you at Technus' place."
"Great." Danny smiled. "Thanks, Ember. I owe you one."
"Well, I might just take you up on that sometime, Ghost Kid."
"So, Wulf," Tim began as the two walked back towards the ship. "He's like a werewolf? You said?"
"He isn't a werewolf, but he looks like what you'd expect a werewolf to look like," Danny explained. "He's a beast, literally and figuratively. And his claws can tear open a portal to our world, so once we get Batman, we can get out of the Ghost Zone fast."
"Great. Where is he?"
"That's the fun part," Danny replied as he got into the Specter Speeder. "We have to break him out of prison. And the people who own it do not like me.”

Ok so I have been having WAY too many thoughts about this and the whole idea that this family is so super competitive with everything makes the idea of them having this unofficial "who gives the best gift" way too much fun. Combine that with Danny having access to time and space shenanigans and an ego to prove himself and you get a lot of crazy stuff and a lot of the family get him some crazy and great stuff too.
For example:
Frome Danny he tends to either give gifts to special places through space and time (Clockwork doesn't mind so long as they abide by the rules of time) or bring things that wouldn't be missed and affect the timeline or just things that were lost to the ages/Zone.
In order of age we have
Alfred: takes him back to be a star performer in a Shakespeare play, the man is impressed saying Alfred does it so well its like he'd been doing it for years! (Bonus points if the play was a very recent publish)
Bruce: he goes back in time and on a date night close to the deaths of his parents (to avoid messing things up) he has a booth set up offering "new found technology that will change the world!" And its just a disguised camera that records "a message for their future son" and they find the idea charming and do it and so record a message saying "we hope Bruce grows up strong, handsome, has kids who love him, honors the family legacy, helps Gotham, and makes the world better". Danny records it and says he will send them the film when it's done (it's digital of course but they die in a few days as is their fate). He gifts the recording to Bruce and the man just tries to remain stoic but just bawls and sobs at it in joy and just hugs Danny before everyone else hugs him too. Danny doesn't ever try to top that gift for him and later gifts are much less emotional.
Barbara: this one is hard. I don't know much about her but working with Tucker, his parents' stuff, and a lot of fiddling he creates a super wheelchair for her that runs on ectoplasm, can generate weapons from seemingly nowhere, can become a minor mech suit, and if she is ever knocked out of it it can put up an electrified barrier of 10 million volts to any who touch it (looking at the clown there) until someone verbally speaks a password so if she does get knocked unconscious someone can still get to her. The thing is top tier Fenton Tech and he also gifts her the blueprints and coding for anything she might want to tinker with. If there's something else better I'm not sure, I don't know her too well sadly.
Dick: he takes him back to his parents' first performance together as a newlyweds. He also cries and Danny is sure to take video and pictures for him.
Jason I already did so I'll go for Tim: now he is hard because I'm not too sure about him but I think a "photo safari" through various worlds would be hard to top and a good one.
Cass: similar to Alfred he takes her to a very special ballet. I unfortunately know nothing about that so someone will have to fill in the blanks there for her.
Steph and Duke I really don't know enough about sadly so I can't offer them anything. If someone can give me a few of their hobbies, dreams, likes though I'm sure I could come up with something.
Now Damian? He's a fun one. I imagine the Zone being infinite there is a place where a zoo exists similar to the one in Superman's fortress. It houses the last few species of every creature that has gone extinct. They are all alive though and preserved by Clockwork's time powers and so live the rest of infinity in this zoo run by Zookeeper (because everyone has a lame name and I'm too deep here already to think up something better). Besides taking him there Danny also offers a "special ticket" that allows Damian to come and visit any time he likes as he's shown to be very fond and good with all the animals and Zookeeper adores him.
Now after it is shown no one can really top Danny in gift giving (Damian also once got a 13th century sword for crying out loud!) Everyone tries to get him the best gifts each time there's a round of it.
For them the best gifts he got are:
Alfred: a free meal and dessert of his choice whenever he wants, only stipulation is a 12 hour period before so he can get it all together.
Bruce: access to a tailor for his needs all on his money. Listen: I truly believe Danny will grow up to be a giant of a man even taller than Bruce and maybe even close to 7 feet tall (you will have to pry #Tall_Danny out of my cold lifeless hands) and thats not going to be an easy thing to shop for so having clothes made to fit his frame is going to be a blessing.
Barbara: "oh you know that highly anticipated video game you are looking forward to next year?" Hand delivers it, all the DLC with it, fixed numerous bugs they missed, added a few things as Easter eggs, and made a custom skin that looks like him.
Dick: best gift Danny gets from him is his own motorcycle when he turns 20. Sure he can fly but there's nothing like the feel of an engine under you sometimes. That or he helps him get and pays for his pilot license so he can legally fly a plane, jet, helicopter, or whatever I don't know how it works so this is hand wavy here.
Jason: now his gifts are amazing because they're adventures and experiences and not always for a special occasion but are "just because" type things. He takes Danny on a mission to help him get experience in the hero world. Learning drug busts, taking down human traffickers, and he even calls in favors to take Danny on some Green Lantern missions to other worlds. Sometimes it's just camping or having a bonding day at a space museum or observatory and pretending to be normal. The point is these two have good times together when Jason gives his gift. Now do they sometimes end up with torn clothes, fire, swollen eyes, blood, and on one occasion a monkey picking fruit out of Jason's hair while Danny's was still smoking from being on fire? Yes, but it's still a good time.
Now Tim he gets him tickets to shows, premiers, and even got him access to a NASA rocket launch and to meet the astronauts and everything. He won that round.
Cass is an interesting one to think of because she is so aware of people that I think her gifts would be all about things Danny needs at the time. Needs help with homework? "Kidnaps" someone she knows is good in that area and drops them off on his doorstep. Is being a bit overrun with ghosts? She's there. Point is I think she wouldn't really give gifts at a given time but give IOUs that are cashed in when she sees you need them. Otherwise she gives things like neat trinkets and things she sees while she's out doing stuff around the world. One such occasion was a hat made from alpaca fur that is the warmest thing he has ever owned.
Now gifts from Steph are all funny and tailored to Danny's sense of humor. Mugs, shirts, socks, ironic posters, I'll let imaginations run wild on this one but every time he gets a gift from her he laughs. There's also a coupon for "one free prank on a jerk of your choice" in each which is why Vlad once woke up to the horrible smell of rotting cheese in his house he could never locate and how the football team found themselves in wedding dresses in the middle of the national square dancing competition in Texas (they were being real jerks that week).
Duke: ok as self appointed "sane one" he gets Danny simple stuff. A neat lava lamp, geek merch, hero merch, and one time got him a picture frame that had stars and space themes on it with a picture of the two of them and a second one inside of them suited up and using their powers with a note on it saying "Powered Bats gotta stick together". I honestly would like these two to have a good relationship being the only ones with powers but that's something for another post.
Damian being the edgelord that he is offers lessons as his gifts and each time with a different weapon. Danny has no idea why he gave him a bow one time when they seem to dislike the Arrow fam but he said it was practical to know how to do anyway and Danny wasn't one to refuse. One year he got his own escrima sticks and the only one more proud of Danny when he beat Dick in a spar (he was going easier on him than he normally would because he was still learning but he was still taken down and impressed) than Damian was Jason, followed close by Bruce and then Dick.
These are typical and top level gifts for birthdays and holidays from the family and Danny honestly loves every single thing he gets because these people don't really owe him anything but they still care. And regardless or not if he is ever officially made into the Batfam he is a brother to the kids and a nephew/son to Bruce and Alfred.
There's just seriously a whole bunch of ideas from this one concept alone and I just love it so much.
Hey, Just_Will from AO3.
First: wanted to say I hope you're doing good for the reasons you told me about, and second I hoped to cheer you up with this idea I had about your Whispers AU with Danny and that when it comes to giving Jason gifts he can't be beat.
I imagine the kids are all competitive about getting each other the best gift for everything because they're just like that and when Danny learns of this and because he and Jason have "a connection" he goes Extra(tm) for him. Jason's first birthday with the family? Danny uses the Infini-map, some help from Clockwork, and a lot of help from Alfred to take Jason and the family to merry old England for a ready of Pride and Prejudice... by Jane Austin herself. He fan boys and makes noises that a grown man shouldn't be able to make and he just has a great time with it. Simple but he just loves it. Danny wins the gift giving for that year and when they're leaving Dick mentions that it will be hard to top next year. Danny smirks though and next year? Jane Austin's ghost has written a personalized novel specifically for Jason whom just about dies all the way. Needless to say Danny is his favorite now and no one can ever top his crazy gifts not that the rest of the kids don't try their damndest to do so.
It was all just a fun idea I had and I hope you liked it. I may have to try to actually write this one day when I get the time but for now I just hope life is going well for you and this made you smile at least.
Thanks for checking on me. Things still aren't great on that front - have received less than 1/3 of what work owes me regarding my missed wages. Boss' response was "Give it time. We're working on it." The reason they gave me regarding what was going on was supposedly resolved on Wednesday which is when I got the partial payment... so they don't have an excuse anymore. I'm hoping to speak with a lawyer this week about my options.
That did really make me smile. Jason would be dumbstruck that someone spent so much time and effort on something for him. He'd so try to arrange a trip to the Watchtower for Danny as a thank you because the men in the Wayne family can't figure out how to communicate. Seeing if Superman would give Danny a tour of the Fortress of Solitude would be a tempting alternative too since he basically has a zoo of alien creatures.
If you do end up writing that, I'd love to read it.

Dan gets tired of Bruce trying to question him all the time and drops Helena Wayne, as well as Terry and Matt McGinnis on his lap and bounces.
Dick and wally were sitting at the wayne family dinner table with their joint families announcing their engagement. Just before desert their was a knock on the front door. Alfred went to tend to it. Nobody thought anything of it till Alfred came back to dinning room with a large meta with him and two scruffed young kids hanging from his hands.
"I believe you have a guest master dick, master wally." Alfred said looking at the red head with a bit of judgment.
"You." The large meta with a goatee and flaming seemingly flaming hair. Motioned to wally with one of the kids who protested. "Well shit you are all here." He looked around the table. "Good I only need to do this once then hopefully. Quit fucking with the time stream." He ignored the throat clearing of the butler and the half raised from the seat posture of most of the dinners guests. "I'm tired of cleaning up all these timeline collapses you speedsters cause. So here is the deal." He sat the protesting kids down in to wally's lap. By phasing through the table. "I'm going to pull all your kids who would cease to exist from the now failed timelines and drop them all in your laps. And I don't care how many it ends up being. You want to cause me problems. You're getting all of yours 10 fold." As he backed out of the table. He pointed an accusing finger at the speedsters. "Do not try me! Oh and By the way. Congratulations on your engagement." He gave a rough pat to alfreds back. "Thanks old man." And then he vanished from sight.
The bats stared at the speedsters. "Care to explain that?"
"Who was that guy?"
"OH my god I'm a dad!" Wally said in shock looking down at his two kids. Ignoring Barry arguing with half the bat clan.
"What are your names?" Dick said all smiles at the two little kids sitting in wallys lap.
"Jai"
"Iris"
