"Schrödinger's Ghost Boy" but make it literal
hey so you know how the phandom has this ongoing joke about how Danny, being both/neither dead and/or alive, is like Schrödinger's cat but ghostly? you know how the thing with the cat is considered a valid explanation of certain principles in quantum mechanics? you know how the cat maintains that state specifically by being unobservable? you know how the theme song calls the Infinite Realms "a world unseen"? you know how—
*government agents swarm the stage; the camera feed fizzes into static, then hard cuts back to me standing in the same place, slightly disheveled but uninjured. I push my glasses up my nose, leaving a suspiciously red fingerprint on one of the lenses. Because my glasses are already smudged to hell, I do not notice*
ahem. so. basically, imagine that the "halfa" thing doesn't just mean being caught between life and death, but also caught between the realms of life and death. This would also be a portal AU, in that because Danny is partially erased from reality, things around him are as well. Basically, he's like a black hole — he gets pulled into this in-between, but because of the "gravity" that generates, so do his belongings. His usual haunts (ha) experience the gravity too, but because they're so connected to things around them, they become warped rather than absorbed (his bedroom evolves into a sort of portal, eventually, but I'm getting ahead of myself).
And how would this affect the people around him? I'm so glad you asked! That is, in fact, the point:
They forget.
Danny's existence? A black hole. And until the event horizon, everything is warped — space, time, reality, and memories included. No one who would have remembered him can even see him.
(There are some metaphors in here. Something something his home is his haunt is his gravitational field is all going to be consumed by him in some way, is going to come out different, like he did, and eventually there won't be an event horizon — Amity becomes liminal not because of the hole in reality, but because of the life it swallowed — grief as gravity so strong it warps everything around it — forgetting as haunting and haunting as a call to remember — the queer analogy of being so different that you're so alone that you have to rewrite the universe just to be heard — etc.)
Some details:
Danny's at his "most real" when he's in an inherent phase state — ghost form in the human world or human form in the realms.
Danny can interact with humans in human form, but they have to have prior exposure to reality-warping/ghostly stuff and no prior knowledge of his existence. (I have some outlines and drafts for this story already, and the main characters in this category wind up being Wes Weston and Valerie Grey)
The above is a good thing except for the GIW. Because they meet both criteria to a degree and are. hm. not good.
Vlad is not the same kind of halfa as Danny. It's sort of like... Phantom was born at the center of a supernova; Plasmius was born in the radiation a black hole belched out after eating a neutron star. (I'm getting way too into this metaphor.) The influence of gravity is wildly different between those two things, so while Vlad does "warp," he doesn't have a warping effect on anything else.
Vlad does, in fact, remember Danny. Unfortunately, he's still an asshole in this universe, so he mostly uses Danny's name to short-circuit the other Fentons' brains whenever he wants them to stop talking.
The phanon idea of "ghost lairs" is complicated for Danny; his lair mirrors his nature, unable to fully exist in the human world or the realms. This is where the "his bedroom becomes a portal" thing comes into play; places that are reality-warped maintain a connection to Danny, sort of like an anchor, and they all act as potential portals to his lair. His room is the start of what his lair mirrors in the human world, and it has the strongest warping, so it's both part of his lair and the most active portal to it.
Warping-as-portals also happens in people's minds; people who really cared about him eventually find those "portals" and access their memories, but this... definitely has some side-effects. (they do not care about the side-effects)
...and I have, in fact, already written an outline of most of the series and a draft of pt 1. (y'all are totally welcome to use this as a prompt though; just send me a link so I can read it!)

Concept for a Danny Phantom x Psychonauts crossover that's partly for me and partly in case anyone else wants to use it:
The aftereffects of a ghost attack (especially if it's one that takes place outside Amity where "ghosts don't exist") getting mistaken for a psychic outburst on Danny's part ending up with Danny getting recommended for an older age bracket of Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp/one of the Psychonauts stepping in to assist with his "clearly potent but dangerously uncontrolled abilities"
Danny now has to struggle to keep his secret identity/true nature under wraps while dealing with the fact that he's surrounded by Actual Freaking Psychics (well, at least he can get away with floating/invisibility here?)
Bonus point potential elements include:
"Well, at least it's better than getting caught by the GIW- at least that Sasha guy is *asking* to do experiments on me..."
Danny having to deal with Jazz flipping out about the fact that the Psychonauts would probably be pretty big names in the psychological field even on a mundane standpoint
Potentially you could make the case for Danny actually being a little psychic genuinely if you wanna count his interactions with Samson/Delilah as Zoolepathy?

I sometimes just imagine the first time Phantom is introduced to the league as like, a fellow big league hero. As someone who works with Justice League Dark and took down the Ecto Acts with his own team and allies to be included under the meta acts like aliens. He knows Constantine and Zatanna and is a pretty common name in the magical community now even if usually as his human form "just Danny".
And suddenly he is surrounded by these "big time heroes" and aliens and champions and most would assume he'd be overwhelmed or in awe. Maybe nervous, or weirdly fixated on being in space.
But here's the kicker- Danny is dead. Technically part of the category ecto-entity, ghost, and thus belonging to the Infinite Realms. He has met a vast variety of characters who are far more chaotic and legendary than these people who have so much interpersonal drama it looks like one of the soap operas Tucker refuses to admit he watches. Wonder Woman? Danny has lunch with Pandora and visits the Greek sections of the realms when he needs to research old prophecies. Superman? Kryptonite is like rock candy and the dead of Krypton are either very sweet or very condescending and Danny has seen both in the Boy Scout. The less said about the Green Lanterns the better. The Flash family are entertaining but also headache inducing because Danny has heard the complaints about the timeline. Half a dozen other heroes and vigilantes have their own dramas that Danny could pick apart at the source for the many issues that started said drama, and that's not even beginning on the issues with Batman and the weird galley of children he has who are sometimes even worse than the dark knight himself.
Meanwhile the League find themselves growing more concerned and horrified the more Phantom manages to reference his adventures and rather stressful start as a vigilante. Constantine hasn't been more entertained in years.

If Lois Lane had a nickle for every time she had to help an overpowered boy from the midwest with the power of journalism, she'd have two nickles. Which isn't a lot but its weird that its happened twice.
Danny watched as Lois pulled out her phone and pulled up a recording app.
“What are you doing?”
“You came to a journalist and are surprised to get an interview?” She asked him, her tone clearly joking. “What you’ve given me here is great kid, but newspaper clippings and copies of federal laws don’t get the public’s attention. I need a story, Phantom’s the story.”
“I’m not Phantom.”
Lois looked at him, less than impressed. Slowly, she turned the screen of her computer until it was visible to both of them. There, in full clarity, was a front-page story from his hometown newspaper. ‘Danny Phantom saves Bus Full of Children!’ and there was a picture of him in his ghost form, his face crystal clear on her screen.
"Phantom’s a ghost. I’m just a dumb kid.” Danny tried again.
Lois pinched the bridge of her nose with her right hand and muttered to herself.
“Why do all you midwestern boys have the same schtick?”
“I’m sorry?” Danny said, unsure if he should be apologizing or not.
“Changing your last name from Fenton to Phantom does not a secret identity make kid. It might work for most civilians, but anyone familiar with the hero game will clock you from a mile away.”
“I’m not Phantom.”
“Sure, kid. But I’m sure you have a way for me to interview him, right? Because I want to talk to him before I do anything else about your town.”
Danny hugged himself and looked down at his knees.
“Is it really that bad?”
“Not the worst I’ve seen. Wonder Woman’s is paper thin. I'm pretty sure most people in DC know who she is outside of the cape and just don’t say anything because she scares them.”
Danny snorted involuntarily at that, looking back up at the woman.
“What’s going on in your town, Phantom? Why come to a journalist and not the Justice League?”
“The Anti-Ecto Acts got passed like a year ago. They state that only being that produces or contains ectoplasm above a certain amount is considered non-sapient and is to be turned over to the government for disposal.” Danny said. “I put the whole thing in there for you to read, but it's long. Amity Park has a lot of ectoplasm in it. It's seeped into the air and water. Normal human people have it in them now. At first, those agents were just firing at me whenever I finished a ghost fight. I could deal with that. Their aim is terrible anyway. But then they figured out that humans can become contaminated with ectoplasm. They decided that meant the entire town was under their jurisdiction. They've decided that means that no one in town counts as human anymore, that we don’t have rights, that they’re doing us a favor by not just exterminating the entire town like the law says.”
Danny leaned forward, putting his hands on the desk in front of Lois Lane. He looked right into her bright eyes and spoke seriously.
“When it was just ghosts under attack, I didn’t think anyone would care. I’ve tried calling the Justice League for help, but they’ve brushed me off. People need to know what’s happening. Anyone can become ecto-contaminated. You just have to be in the right place at the wrong time. It’s not right what’s happening to Amity, Miss Lane. I came to you because if anyone could get the world to listen, to believe, then it's got to be you.”
And Lois Lane smiled. It was a proud, eager smile. The kind of smile Danny had seen on Sam right after she convinced the school to serve a vegan lunch. He barely held back from shivering.
“Well then, Mr. Phantom.” Lois said, before tapping onto the recording app on her phone and starting a recording. “Let’s begin.”

Fic prompt #5
Dpxdc
Danny decided that he can’t no longer continue to being a superhero, because it’s influencing negatively his grade and there is no way he could find a job in the future if the situation continues as now.
But he can’t just stop and let the ghost go wild in the human realm, so he just splits his human and ghost form.
He decided that every night the would reemerge themselves into one, for share their memories of the day and split right after, for the rest of his human life.
The thing is that Danny, human or ghost is never been the most attentive one.
To prove this point, there is the fact that the two half, had called the other, their other half in public in numerous occasions.
So the hero community is now convinced that they are in love, but because of their differences (being alive and not), Phantom is waiting for Fenton to die, to be truly together.
In the main time they also think that they gave each other permission to having other relationships, but just for life.
Tim Drake, aka Red Robin, is actually trying to convince is civilian boyfriend that they should be together even after dead
Danny Fenton is slightly getting more and more concerned for the mental status of his boyfriend, that is continually mentioning death and the afterlife.

Actually writing something based off of this post. Y'all really seemed to like it and I got scared LOLOL
(How it will probably go (written poorly written cause it's almost 7AM and I haven't slept yet) . Also I have no idea what I'm doing. This will be rewritten better in a fic maybe.)
Jason sighed as he made his way into Gotham University's gym. It was the middle of the day and Jason was there at a Startup Event posing as a guy who was interested in what people had to offer. He had only had maybe a total of four hours of sleep since he had patrol the night before. Granted, this wouldn't have affected him as much if he was more mentally prepared to be awake. The only reason why he's out here was because Bruce had woken him up an hour ago to tell him a little last minute about what he needed to do today. Originally, the plan was to do absolutely nothing. But now he has to investigate a guy that Bruce had his eye on as of lately.
The person he's looking for is a man named Danny Nightingale. Apparently he's been in Gotham for a couple years and only recently started making a mess of things. How it went under Bruce's nose is beyond him considering how freaked out Bruce was once he did find out.
Apparently, the guy has been making life changing machines. Little mechanical bees have been flying around Gotham really just sucking up all the pollution in the air and just depositing it somewhere. According to the media, they go back to some headquarters and into a bee hive looking structure to deposit all the pollution and sludge. From the photos shown, it's actually pretty impressive. Some guy actually making a change around here.
For Bruce- no. For Batman, this is just highly suspicious. Why would some guy make these positive life changing machines? For the better? No. No genius with the power to change the world would do it for the better. There's got to be some ulterior motive behind it.
At least, that's what Batman thinks.
Jason thinks it's all interesting. Maybe there is an ulterior motive but even then, at a scale so large that it's literally affecting the city in a positive way? You've got to be literally more insane than the Joker if you wanted to plaster your face everywhere at an event like this. Everyone else at this event seemed to show promise but compared to Danny Nightingale's company? They're literally all small fry.
Surprisingly enough, however, no one else seems to be at Danny's booth. Not even Danny. Jason frowned as he approached the booth and just looked at the machines on them. The Bees are kind of just flying in place and the moment that Jason even looked at them, the Bees immediately got to work. They flew around him like a puppy with wings, nuzzling against him and bumping into him so dumbly. And honestly?
It was actually kind of cute. You would think that being on such little hours of sleep and being grumpy the whole morning would really affect the pits inside him but no. He's surprisingly calm.
"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry! They don't usually act like this," a voice stuttered out. A man hastily walked towards Jason as he gently plucked the Bees out of the air and brought it close to him.
"Uh, don't worry about it. I thought it was kind of..." Jason trailed out before locking eyes with the man who spoke.
This was Danny Nightingale. He was much shorter than Jason, only standing tall at 5' 5". His hair was fully black with only a white money piece right on his bangs. And his eyes? An alluring blue with only a hint of green at the center of his eyes. Honestly, the sight of Danny just about took Jason's breath away.
There was a subtle glow to him, almost making Jason think of there being some sort of meta activity going on but looking around the people in the area, no one but him seems to notice. Danny was concerned about Jason, that much is obvious. The way his eyes burrowed in concern then into confusion. It's strange why just looking at him made Jason's heart skip a beat, even though in hindsight, Danny looks much worse off than Jason.
That man looks like he hasn't slept in 3 weeks. But even then he was...
"Cute..." Jason finally finished his sentence a little too late.
Danny blinked in confusion, tilting his head to the side. His bangs fall freely over his eyes. Just the sight of that almost made Jason blush. "My bees were cute?" Danny spoke, the tone of his voice (very tired) sounded like a sweet harmony in Jason's ears. "Oh! You're interested in Nightech? No one else seems to be interested in my stuff yet. I can tell you all about this company and how it works? I put in a lot of work and love into these little guys and I'm sure you would love them too!"
Blah blah blah. Proper name. Place name. Backstory stuff.
Nothing of what Danny is saying is registering in Jason's brain right now. Maybe some. ("I... Love... You...")
"I love you too!!" Jason blurted out.
Danny blinked before widening his eyes. "Wh-What...?" There was that look of concern again but now there's another look. Recognition...
Whatever. None of that right now. This is embarrassing!
"I-I said I love your company. Uh. Do you have a business card? I can let Bruce Wayne know about this."
Wordlessly, Danny gave an information card to Jason before that poor brick of a man just ran out of there, not once even looking back. Honestly, from the way it's playing out in Jason's head right now, he feels like a princess running away from her prince at the stroke of midnight. The earpiece crackled before a voice started to speak.
"Jason? What the hell was that?" Bruce's voice questioned.
It was only when Jason left the gymnasium that he answered, "Me digging my own grave for the second time, old man. Let me go die in peace."
"No, no," Dick's voice chimed in, "Only after we replay that very short conversation about 50,000 times. Thank you very much."
Jason only groaned in response.
Danny, back in the gymnasium, only stared at the door that Jason left from in horror. The only way for people to react that way to him like that is for them to be dead or liminal. Now he has to figure out a way to tell Bruce Wayne that this person that he seems to know is a little bit dead!
This actually is a part of whatever the fuck I'm writing. I'm still thinking of a fic name. But all of the random posts go together in some way.

Tumblr media
Hey, man, we all can't be like you -- I wish we were all rose-colored too
{Rose-Colored Boy - Paramore}
- - - - - - - - - -
Smashing this song and my headcanon that Dash's dad is in the GIW together to make a fic Idea where the GIW finds out Danny's identity and tells on him to his parents in their hunt for phantom --
Dash's dad leads the operation, him and his team (along with the Fenton parents) cornering Danny after school while he's hiding/running away from Dash, forcing transform in order to get away; unbeknownst to either party, Dash witnesses everything and runs after Phantom to try and help.
Que the two stumbling into and getting trapped in the ghost zone in a confused scuffle while Danny's trying to escape, now on the run from three (3) parents and one (1) secret government organization.
- - - - - - - - - -
I kinda wanna use this premise to explore how Dash would progress through learning Phantom is Danny, and then (separately!) becoming a better person--
-- I think he'd be super annoying about it at first; idolizing Danny, pestering him a bunch about how cool it is to have ghost powers, generally acting way too close with him, and completely pushing aside how he treated Danny before the revelation.
Most of the situations we see Dash become friendly towards/respectful of Danny in-show are usually after Danny has shown himself to be physically strong/confident (see: Pirate Radio), and even then, Dash doesn't proceed to do any introspection at all and continues to bully him.
Conclusion: Learning Phantom = Danny would not be enough to trigger a redemption arc for Dash. This boy needs to learn some empathy.
Dash actively witnessing Danny having issues despite being powerful as Phantom (i.e. fearing and having to run from his parents, the toll fighting ghosts takes on his school/life/mental health, etc.), as well as being confronted with how privileged he is himself (having a loving, attentive family, being much better off financially, etc.) would force him into being more introspective.
Throw in him realizing the parallel between how the GIW treats Phantom with how he treats Danny (i.e. indiscriminate & unreasonable anger & violence), and -boom!- it clicks for him

:) I’m backkkk you all thought you could get rid of me
🛕Pharaoh Tucker with his “Wifes” Sam and Danny🛕
Yes I’m bringing attention to this like why is nobody talking about this????
Now let’s get into the main plot so Danny, Sam and Tucker have to GO and fast ( GIW or bad Fenton au either or. !!!Bonus points!!! If Danny got hurt and than it would make this so much funnier y’all get what I mean in a sec) and they all go to the ghost zone where they meet up with clockwork and he tells them that one of Tuckers earlier reincarnation made a place so in the future he’s good even if he doesn’t remember it so clockwork brings them to what looks like an ancient Egyptian empire with the civilians and the people who live there as the people who died in the past {sorry if this is a bit hard to read I am very tired} and they are brought to the place where clockwork just casually reveals that Tucker is the pharaoh ie: The King and Sam, Tucker and Danny take this very well for them this is a safe place for them to heal and live with the added bonus of helping with Danny’s obsessions (Protection and Space) and after a bit they gain the affection of the people and the…Protection of the people??? Because for the people they see that one of their queen (Danny) was hurt before the royals came here so they get a bit protective and for a bit of information here’s the main jobs of the trio
Tucker taking care of the rules and doing the main running of the empire
Sam takes care of the army and gardens of the empire ( making sure they have enough food and such )
Danny takes care of the people (who grown the most fond of ) and such
So you can see what I’m going for with this now here’s where the JL comes in so the empire was NOT in the ghost zone it is in its own little world but somehow the JL gets tipped off about a triving empire that NOBODY has made contact with so a group ( Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the flash, green lantern you know the works) goes to make contact and hopefully make allies with them so they go and are taken aback a bit by how much this place is triving and what to meet the people who made this happen so what the JL was expecting was a lest a adult but instead they got what looked like a 16-17 with what looked like two people the same aged sitting next to him on either side (!!!EXRA BONUS POINTS!!! If one of the supers helped Danny before the meeting) and someone makes the dumb decision to ask them where are the REAL rulers and the guards in the room ( who I forgot to mention ) get mad at them and become hostile to them and Sam has to clam them down and that’s all for the plot at the moment
Now on to the details let’s start with tucker I’m thinking about this
Tumblr media
( just instead of blue it’s red) and for a head piece I’m thinking the good old classic 
Tumblr media
It just fits
Now for Sam I’m thinking is for her outfit
Tumblr media
But in darker colors because she’s SAM and for a head piece I’m thinking something like this
Tumblr media
Nothing to big because she has to train the army and she’s outside a lot so if it’s anything to big I think it will just be annoying
For Danny this
Tumblr media
Mixed with this
Tumblr media
Because ye and for his hair piece I’m braining
Tumblr media
This I think it looks neat
Now that’s all from me byeee

Following an accident, Danny wakes up in Gotham City in a DC universe. Lacking any forms of ID or possessions beyond the clothes on his back, he’s forced to commit some crimes to survive. Minor crimes, but still.
And then he gets caught.
During the court proceedings, they come to the mistaken conclusion that he’s a Meta suffering from some psychiatric issues such as Cotard’s Syndrome (a real rare condition where a person holds the delusional belief that they’re dead/don’t exist/etc).
Thus, between his “need for mental treatment” and the concerns about housing someone with his unique physical traits, he is sentenced to spend time in Arkham Asylum. He’s under pretty low security aside from the anti-Meta stuff and has more freedoms than some other inmates, but it’s still not a great experience. Even at the best of times, Arkham is hardly a nice place.
Some of his fellow residents are decently chill all things considered, but lots very much aren’t.

Picturing sleep-deprived college student Danny Fenton wandering into an active crime scene without realizing it, pushing detectives aside to get at a device they hadn't even REALIZED was a bomb yet and disarming it (have you SEEN the things his parents build?!?), and then he just. Walks away.

Hmmmmmmmm
Again I am in a deaged Dani and Dan kick but lets mix in the idea of Danny being forced to attended a gala Vlad is hosting.
He deaged Dani and Dan and is making sure Danny can't do anything that will embarrass him during the gala via threatening them and putting an anti-ecto shock collar/watch/something on Danny to make him behave.
He just wasn't expecting the Bats, coughWaynescough, to start snooping around or for them to find the two hidden toddlers who are more than ready to make their 'daddy' pay for being a meanie to them and their 'mommy'
(Psst lets make the misunderstanding so much worse when someone, most likely Babs, looks up how long Vlad has been in Danny's life and how old the 'twins' are.)

When young ghosting are extremely tired or have exhausted their core too much, whether it be from fighting or just using up too much ectoplasm, they can merge with their parent in the ghost zone. The core of their parent and the welcoming warmth it gave often allowed for fast recoveries. Dani was too weak even with her eco-shots and Danny allowed her to rest inside him until she was one hundred percent again.
One minor thing was that even with the core, there's still a bit of a change that's physically noriceable. And while ghosts and those of the Infinite Realms understood, humans often didn't.
Which was why Danny was met with mortified and angry gazes when he appeared to the next Justice League meeting with Dani resting inside of him. It didn't help with how bad he explained the situation either.

Tim froze. "Huh?"
"I mean, you're definitely cute. But I don't feel comfortable with strangers? And I don't want there to be any misunderstandings."
Danny Nightingale looked flustered, nervous, and far too pretty with his cheeks flushing red under the glow of the nearby lamp fixtures. Tim wondered when his brain would finally come back online. Right now it was far too interested in putting everything else on the backburner.
On one hand, he had been trying to get information out of Danny on his connection to Vlad Masters- a connection that had seemed more tenuous with each passing minute of the evening. On the other, Tim could admit it had sounded a bit like he was inviting Danny for something more.
And if he was honest with himself, it was only mostly unintentional.
"It's not even you, I just get attached really easily and don't want something casual. Sorry."
Tim hadn't even realized boundary setting could be so attractive.
"No. Yeah, that's- fine." Smooth. The Drake-Wayne charm at its finest. Tim could hear Jason snickering on the comms.

DPxDC Idea
I've been stewing on this one for a bit but haven't done anything with it so I'll just say it here:
So Tim and Danny are dating, it's just a thing that's happened and the whole fic gets kicked off when Tim invites Danny to come and actually meet his family. There are no secrets, everyone knows all the relevant vigilante/ghost hero nonsense, that's not the issue.
The issue is that as soon as Danny sees Jason and Damian- the two brothers that Tim has admitted to Danny in hushed guilty tones that he hasn't been able to get close with since every time he tries to build that bridge and make up and move on from their initial violent introductions to each others lives he's met with a near miss fist to the face and jabbing comments or a brawl in the guise of a 'friendly' spar- are liminal if not ghost-adjacent.
And Danny just has an 'oh, oh no' moment.
Because these two are the ones that, even after getting over that initial bump of attempted murders, still pick physical fights the most with Tim. It was the whole reason why Tim thought his two brothers hated him.
But again, they were both ghost-adjacent, and ghosts have this funny little habit where they make friends by beating the shit out of each other.
Basically what I'm saying here is: Tim was Jason and Damian's favorite brother this whole time and thought everything was chill between them meanwhile Tim thought he was the most hated person in the family.
The misscomunication. The angst of Tim's imposter syndrome. The angst of Jason and Damian realizing their brother thought they hated him. The angst and guilt from the two realized they were hurting Tim instead of just having fun because Danny had to pull them away and lecture them that 'humans are squishier than ghosts, you have to be careful' and them realizing they weren't.
Then all the attempts at apologizing, the attempted fluff that would be Jason and Damian trying to bond through something softer. Jason inviting Tim to work in the library while Jason reads so that they can still be close and together but Tim being on edge the whole time because what if Jason was lying and just waiting for Tim to lower his guard? Damian asking Tim to go to the park where Damian can work on drawing landscapes while Tim photographs but Tim can't help but worry that Damian was going to lure him away from the mansion just so he can attack Tim without any of the family getting in his way.
Danny mediates by helping Tim to trust his brothers again while also making sure Jason and Damian don't push too hard seeing how Tim is still very on edge around them despite how much Tim wishes they were being truthful. Tim wants to be close to his brothers, he really does, but he can't help how he goes tense any time he sees one of them out of the corner of his eye. And now that they know, any time Jason or Damian see Tim tense like that, they know it's because of fear and not anticipation for a fun little spar like they had thought all this time.
Idk man just had this idea going around in my brain for a bit. Might make a fic of it and might not but still wanted to get the idea out there.

Fic prompt #8
Dpxdc
Phantom and Red Robin hook up after a mission and are now friends with benefits
Phantom is happy with this arrangement, he had been in a few relationships before and well it was still friends with all of his ex, he couldn’t help but feel a little awkward when they were alone together. So while he wasn’t contrary to a serious relationship with Red Robin, he made sure to keep a safe distance between them so not to complicate things
Red Robin instead was getting more and more frustrated. He had begun this relationship, as some sort of honey trap. He should have seduced Phantom so to make him spill all the information about the Infinite Realms, the Lazarus pit and the new High King, and instead he was the one being seduced.
He couldn’t help it!! Phantom was beautiful with white glow hair that seemed to not be influenced by the gravity, green eyes that seemed to watch his very soul and the fang! …
He was doomed from the beginning and worst of all he could tell the feeling wasn’t reciprocated…
Danny was very happy with his new friend ( ◠‿◠ )
