#damian is antagonistic with valerie after hearing her talk about cujo (and danny)

[lolottes]

let's not forget our national Superboy too!

Jonathan is reflexively jealous at the mention that Damian is going to take him to meet his "first apprentice". He knows Damian too well not to understand the subtext here! He's going to meet his best friend's first best friend! His place as my best friend is threatened!!!

then Danny and Jon know immediately that: the other one is not 100% human (insert spiderman meme here)

Jon tries to keep distance but Danny is aggressively friendly, keen to talk positively about space and so happy to meets another non-human and flying buddies…

Meanwhile Damian is a little upset to see that Danny has made not one but two friends! and super loyal AND competent friends!!! This Samantha (yes he calls her that more than once) has the distrust and organization that the other two lack and Tucker is a natural ecto hacker, a diamond in the rough and unconscious of his values.

Then Damian realizes that their loyalty to Danny transfers to him when they take risks to keep him away from spectral activity despite his roughness. It was then that he completely changed his attitude with them.

He recognizes that Sam (yes, he ends up respecting her enough to offer her the right to impose her nickname) is very capable as well socially (she is the only one who can behave well in high society, she just chooses not to do) has a high moral standard… and it feels good to no longer be the only vegetarian in the group

Sam does the same, realizing that Damian's ways are due to his "family's brainwashing" and makes it her personal challenge to introduce him not only to as many manifestations as possible, but also to other activities judged as " rebel" by good society

Tucker finds himself with Wayne tech and immediately forgives ALL of Damian's rough history and adopts him into the Phantom closer circle the second -the others- Sam seems less resistant to this

Danny has, in the meantime, of course, given Fenton tech gifts to his new friends! Damian has a new non-lethal/anti-ghost weapon and Jon has anti-possession bracelets (which also allows you to punch the ghost)

Damian also used a fine Fenton work comb to remove all the microphones/cameras that were hidden there and gave jazz training to know how to do the same. Jazz is THRILLED to be more useful § AND her brother's childhood friend (of a clearly shady sect) is doing well (and is breaking away from his maternal family)

… Then she notices that this Jon has similar tics to danny… well at least she's reassured that he's not too ordinary for amity park?

And Cujo has bat quality fake service meta animal papers now :3

Damian had never seen another person his age before.

“Wow, you're good at that.”

Damian froze in his practice and looked over at the boy. It was after his lesson, his instructor had other students to teach, and Damian had his own private training area. Well, it was supposed to be private. “Who are you?”

“Danny, what's your name?”

Damian glared at the boy. Who doesn't know who he is? “I am Damian Al-Ghoul, grandson of the Demon's Head, son of the Bat, heir to the League of Assassins.”

“Wow, that's a lot... Can I just call you Damian?”

“Servants call me Master. How did you get here?”

Danny shrugged, “I was just looking around.”

“Just looking around...”

“Yeah, my parents are in the science lab down in the bottom basement with the weird lake and I was helping them, but then I got board and Jazz said I wasn't allowed to leave the lab, but when I asked Dad, he said I could do what I want as long as I don't get in trouble.”

“Oh, the idiot scientists.” Damian remembered how his mother had described the new scientists hired to study the Lazarus Pools. A pair of geniuses when it came to the scientific study of magic but idiots in all other fields. Surely only idiots would bring their children to live with the League of Assassins.

“What do you mean? If you're a scientist you can't be an idiot?”

Damian huffed at the boy. “You can be smart at one thing and dumb at others. Like you could be good at reading but bad at numbers.”

“Oh, I guess that makes sense. But I'm pretty good at reading and numbers.” Danny then smiled brightly, “It looks like you're really good at swording though.”

“It's called swordplay. And yes, I am good at it. Better at it at my age than many who are older.”

“Can you show me how to do it?”

Damian contemplated for a moment, “As long as you don't get in the way of my practice, I don't see why not.”

Danny cheered as he ran up to where Damian was standing, but Damian pointed to the side of the training area, “There should be a spare sword over there you can use.”

Danny nodded and ran to get it then ran back.

Damian wasn't sure if he'd like showing Danny how to use a sword, but he liked how Danny followed all his instructions. It was different than how the servants followed his orders, but Damian couldn't place why. It became common place, for Danny to show up after Damian's lessons and Damian would show him what he'd learned. It actually made learning new things easier because Damian had to figure out how exactly something worked in order to show Danny how to do it. Not only that, but when they practiced the moves on each other, Danny would change them and make it harder to beat him. Damian did win every time, but Danny wasn't half bad.
