#elves and santa

[ghostbsuter]

Danny 'always checks if the billionaire he's staying at got a basement/cave' fenton, peacefully eating at dinner.

Bruce speaks up, smiling light. "So, Danny. How are you liking your stay so far?"

Danny, meeting his eyes, answers easily. "Yeah, it's been alright."

The teen keeps staring at Bruce, leaning on his hand and not even trying to hide it.

"I'm sorry, but are we not gonna talk about the fact you're batman and have a massive cave underneath your home?"

Bruce chokes immediately, "Excuse me?" He looks rather baffled.

Danny isn't done yet, deciding that Damian is his next victim. "Or the fact that Ra's al ghul's grandson is next to me?'

Someone is coughing hard, another is hysterically laughing. He doesn't knows who.

"Or," he meets Jason's eye. "He apparently died and came back?"

Danny leans back into his chair, honestly confused.

"You all reek of death, even Mr. Alfred does!" The statement is followed by ridiculous gestures and Duke shrugs.

"You get used to it." He explains, chewing.

"Really? Kinda strange. If I hadn't researched batman before, I'd 100% think Bruce is a villain."

"Amen to that, Bruce being a secret villain seems more plausible than vigilante."

"Yeah!"

The rest of dinner and after was spent on all ridiculous points and theories towards the waynes, Duke and Danny got on like a house on fire.

To the dismay of both Dick and Bruce, for different reasons.

Dick for not being the favorite and Bruce for being found out so fucking fast, he still is recovering.

(He was only slightly glad Stephanie wasn't here during that reveal.)

Stealth game like Dishonored, but you play as workshop elves assisting Santa on Christmas:

Ensure everyone in the house is asleep

Drop off gifts Santa forgot to give out

Repair and replace faulty gifts

Eliminate hostiles

Help Santa enter a house if it has no chimney

Hc where Vlad genuinely loves Christmas.

Like, it's not even to drive Danny up the walls for his hatred of it, bro just genuinely loves Christmas. It's how that even someone like Vlad could stand by and not break the Christmas truce despite his personality.

The one day a year where Danny gets left alone before Vlad somehow, someway, got redeemed and became an ok-ish guy.

Danny, genuinely, thought it was because Vlad being the careful fruitloop he is, doesn't want to get dogpiled like Ghost Writer did when he, himself, broke the Christmas Truce.

But no, biggest reason is that he genuinely loves Christmas.

Unfortunately, Vlad has no one to celebrate with.

So, he celebrates with himself, using his many duplicates of course!

Danny finds out when he encounters one of his many duplicates trying to buy gifts for himself, Danny sees it as very sad honestly when he found out, but was he going to do anything about it?

No.

Vlad can go bugger off to his mansion for the holiday and leave Danny alone for one day a year. Fudge, the guy even seemed to be aware of it by saying that he wouldn't want to oppose when invited by the Fentons, even though he's literally obsessed with his mother.

When Vlad somehow became redeemed, and stopped being a creep towards his mom and trying to force him into being his son he... sorta grew a conscious. I.e, going over to Vlad's mansion and dragging the man out to join his family in celebration.

Apparently, he still never got the hint that he's invited, like, at all. So Danny has to drag him over, every. Single. Year.

At the very least, the man made great non-living treats.

This, has gone on for years, Danny still looks 14, Vlad for some reason stopped aging at 45 and everyone else in the Fenton family knows that they're half ghost and has no problem with it (Jack and Maddie don't anymore after realizing everything they knew and thought were wrong) and celebrated Christmas just as hard as before, if not more so.

Even Dani stopped travelling the world to come back and join in.

It eventually turned into a tradition at that point, and after their family lived and died at a rip age (they never became ghosts) it sorta put a damper on the mood.

Then Vlad left, suddenly thinking he isn't invited anymore since Danny hates Christmas.

Danny, come next year, proved him wrong by showing up out of nowhere, as Phantom, wearing a Santa hat and star cape in the shape of a tree that Vlad stitched himself, with Dani also in ghost form also wearing one with a Christmas themed gas mask on her face.

Danny then just floated down towards him, took him by the back of his Christmas themed cape (Yes, Vlad is also in ghost form), looked at both the heroes, and villains who decided to fight on Vlad's personal property since he was probably funding one of either, or even both sides.

Then said they were taking him, his treats (Dani picked them up because she missed them) and excused themselves.

Vlad won't lie, he's incredibly touched by this event. But he was also a bit sad because he spent so long carefully manipulating both sides for one final, climatic, giant crash that he could sit back and watch while enjoying his cup of hot cocoa and enjoying his goods on one of the best days of the year.

my bestie suggested more Christmas Crossover AU and i couldn’t say no to that 😂 the differing elf lore is funny to me so i had to address it somehow. i think that after dealing with North, the elves would flock to someone who takes them (semi) seriously. and Bernard just hits that balance of grumpy efficiency 👌

transcript:

Bernard: Why am I here

Jack: You need to get out more, I'm getting you out more.

Bernard: My job is management and keeping out intruders. I'm not supposed to become one.

Jack. It's fine, I'm allowed in here. North is just out for the day.

Bernard: You brought me to see a bunch of gnomes?

Jack: No no, not gnomes, elves. Go on, say something to them!

Bernard: Encouragement really isn't my strong suit-

Jack: Then do what you do best~

Bernard: ...Right.

Bernard: You! What're your jobs around here?

Elf 1: (~)

Bernard: Bakers? Cocoa brewers? Excellent. And you?

Elf 2: (~)

Bernard: Musician, fantastic. Traditional positions huh.

Elf 3: (~!)

Bernard: “Haughty”? Of course he's haughty, all Santas are. They don't appreciate the nuance of the background workforce. We elves are the vital backbone of Santa's workshop. You all have important tasks to keep, so I’m expecting good results from you.

Bernard: And I don't like to be disappointed. Capiche?

(elves cheery excitedly)

Jack: Oooh, looks like someone’s got some new fans! North is gonna love this.

Jack: You know the elves don't do the actual toy making, right?

Bernard: Whatdo'ya take me for, an amateur?

(Bonus 1)

Curtis: This is the fifth stack of personal letters you've received this week, Bernard. This is all highly suspicious..

Bernard: Curtis, you wouldn't know “suspicious” if it hit you in the face with a bowl of waxed fruit.

(Bonus 2)

North: There's something wrong with the elves, I'm sure of it!

Tooth: How so?

North: These are the BEST. Cookies. I have ever eaten!

(Jack laughs quietly)

“Turn me back, ya evil witch!” Logan screams in a high-pitched voice, throwing his fists toward the tall, mysterious black haired woman. His tiny bunny body hops up and down, moving closer to her until your hands swoop down and grab him, picking him up from the ground and holding him close to you. “Hey! Hey! Let me go! I can take her!” You scratch between his ears, causing his little legs to kick and his eyes to roll back. “S–stop, this is some witchcraft!” 

You giggle, shaking your head before looking up at the woman, giving her an innocent smile. “Hi! I’m Y/n or Mrs Claus! Who are you?” You ask with wonder, confused and slightly jealous of how beautiful this woman is. 

Morticia’s back straightens, and her eyes look you up and down before she gives you a slight smile. “Morticia, my dear. But many know me as Pitch Black.” You nod, subconsciously drooling at the slight of her red lips. “I see you know this… Pest?” 

“Hey! I’m no pest, you evil bitch!” Logan’s legs begin to kick again, fists waving in the air as he tries to punch. You cuddle him closer to you, placing a kiss on his head before looking back up at the woman and nodding to her question.

“Yes, this is Logan. He’s the Easter Bunny, but he, uh… He used to be bigger, I thought?” You look down at him, confused as to why he’s so tiny when not long ago he was large and splitting you open on his… Your legs squeeze together as you think back to that Easter, and you clear your throat, blinking the daze away from your eyes. “D–Did you do something?” 

Morticia nods, giving a soft smile. “Oh, yes. As I was saying, he’s a pest. I despise pests.” She waves his words off, no longer bothered to listen to his blabbering. “Why would someone as beautiful as you hang with this despicable creature?” Your cheeks heat up, choking on your saliva as the compliment slips from her lips so easily. 

Logan’s little eyes glared, his ears flopped, and his tiny fluffy white tail wiggled into your chest. You smile softly, continuing to scratch between his ears, unknowing of your husband and the elves entering the scene, standing to the sides. “Why, uh… Thank you, but he isn’t a despicable creature. He’s my friend, and I would really appreciate it if you turned him back.” You bat your eyelashes and pout, knowing that usually works on your men.

Morticia smirks. “Hmm, as cute as you are, my dear. I don’t think so. Goodbye.” She waves before disappearing in a cloud of black smoke, and Logan grumbles, hopping out of your arms and onto the ground.

“Great, fantastic. Now, I’m stuck like this.” Logan stands with his arms crossed, a grumpy look on his cute little face. You smile, cooing as you reach down and scratch his head, causing Logan’s eyes to roll back before he fights you off, swatting your hand away from him. “Okay! That’s enough!” 

Ari chuckles, looking down at his eldest friend. “Don’t worry, my friend. We will get you back to normal soon enough.” He walks over and wraps his arm around your waist, pressing a kiss onto the side of your head, watching with you as the elves stalk toward the tiny bunny. 

“Pfft. Why are you so fat?” Lee grumbles, challenging the bunny. The elves eyes widen, and Logan looks at Lee with a glare. “What? Just asking a valid question.” 

Logan hops toward him, puffing out his chest to the smaller man. “Why are you so fat?” Gasps can be heard from the other elves, watching with wide eyes as they wait for a fight to break out.

Steve pouts. “Well… I think he’s adorable.” He gives a little smile to Logan. “Now that you are little, w–would you want to play with us? We got these cool mopeds…” Steve bats his eyelashes, pouting until Logan grunts and gives in.

“Okay, fine! I’ll play with you guys!” Logan turns to Ari and glares. “You better find a way to reverse this!” He stalks off with the little elves following him with excitement.

You look up at your husband with a smile. “You aren’t going to do that immediately, are you?” 

Ari squeezes your side, looking down at you with a soft smile. “Of course not. I’m going to wait it out for a bit. The elves deserve someone new to play with.”

NIGHT'S HEIR REFUSES TO KNEEL TO HIGH LORD

SPECIAL EDITION!

Rhysand, Heir to the High Lord of the Night Court, recently had a heated exchange with the High Lord at the Court of Nightmares. The pair appeared to have an intense conversation mind-to-mind at what was supposed to be a routine visit to the Hewn City. “Insubordinate,” is--

List of documented diversity in elves:

Tolkien-esque Elves: human sized, maybe taller. slender and ethereal. usually have a connection to nature, but do not so directly live in it as other elves do. length and size of ears can vary but tend towards shorter with very long ears being outliers.

Wild Elves: vary in size, but usually about human size, maybe shorter. live in nature, usually forests, and have a strong connection to it. more likely to be stigmatized in fantasy settings. very little connection to the world of humans and other races.

Dark Elves: sometimes mysterious, sometimes nefarious. these elves are usually human sized but tend to differ most significantly from the appearance of humans compared to other groups above. common features are: skin in dark shades of blue, purple, & grey, white or very light hair, glowing/pupilless eyes, and longer ears. tend to have connections to magics that are taboo and mysterious.

Fae Elves: folkloric version of elves. can vary wildly in size and appearance but tend towards being small. usually have very large pointed ears and large eyes, and sometimes large noses as well. nature spirits, often with a playful trickster disposition. usually hanging out with other fae entities like faeries, trolls, goblins, sprites, nymphs, satyrs, brownies, gnomes, and dryads. sometimes, there is a distinction between these types of elves and faeries, but other times, they are simply a type of faery or an alternate term for faeries.

X-Mas Elves: short little guys who work for Santa Claus making toys and performing various jobs within his gift-giving operation. sometimes, Santa and/or his wife are also elves who are inexplicably taller (perhaps denoting a hierarchical culture based on height or a hive structure wherein the dominant mating pair becomes morphologically different from other individuals)

Tinkering Elves: funny little guys somewhat adjacent to X-Mas Elves. not necessarily nature spirits, but small mystical creatures that love to repair, experiment, and invent things. tend to live in the hidden nooks and crannies of human structures.

Keebler Elves: very similar to Tinkering Elves, but seem to be preoccupied with baking the sweet goods sold by the Keebler Company (subsidiary of Ferrero SpA). it is unclear if the elves are compensated for their labor or if they are used as slave labor at the whims of their corporate overlords. if only we could locate the secret Keebler production facilities where the elves work and could assess their treatment. when will we learn the truth, Keebler? when will we learn the truth!?
