I bet the JL has a “how fucked are we” metric that’s literally just how many of Bruce’s kids are there.

Like if he pulls up to the alien invasion or whatever with just Robin, then everything’s fine. More than fine, actually, because Bruce feels comfortable enough to bring his eight year old along for the ride. This battle will take approximately fifteen minutes and they’ll all get shawarma after. Not fucked in the slightest.

But if Red Robin shows up too… hmm, okay, this is getting somewhat serious. Tim is one of Bruce’s most trusted partners; he’s the smart Robin, the tactician, the loyal one, and so if Batman brought him along then it means he’s at least a little bit worried about shit hitting the fan and wants one his advisors around. But the combined brain power of Bruce and Tim is pretty much unmatched (DC plot armor for the win), so everything will be fine, basically. Superman might take a hit, but everything’s going to be fine. Just keep calm and you’ll all make it home in time to Door Dash some Panda Express before it closes. So not that fucked.

It starts to get serious after that. When Signal and Spoiler roll up the scene, shit has definitely hit the fan. Batman’s worried enough to call in reinforcements and he’s probably doubting the League’s ability to listen/obey his orders, so he needs a backup plan in case things go really south. But with Signal’s abilities and Steph’s superpower of turning anything into a joke, chances are you’ll be okay. Maybe impaled or something, but okay. But still, fucked.

When Nightwing shows, the JL knows it’s starting to get dicey out on the field. See, Nightwing’s got his own team, his own issues—the fact that he set that all aside to help out his dad is cause for concern. On a scale from 1-10, they are at a 7. Above moderately fucked.

And… oh God. Black Bat? Most of the time the JL doesn’t even see her, but once she makes herself known and starts fighting alongside her siblings, they all start to silently freak out. Black Bat is a fucking machine and if she’s breaking a sweat trying to fight the Big Bad, things are definitely not going to go well. They start praying that Batman figures something out. They freak out. They are intrinsically fucked.

But God Forbid you catch sight of the Red Hood. The prodigal son is a legitimate killer, and if Batman’s letting him blow out brains then the JL knows he’s desperate. And a desperate Batman is not good. At all. They are definitely fucked.

After defeating Pariah Dark, Phantom -High King of the Infinite Realms- joins the JL or YJL.

Danny is a great addition to the team, he’s surrounded by other people with powers (even if they didn’t have to die to get them), he doesn’t have to hide who he is. Nobody is hunting him anymore. The Anti-Ecto acts have been abolished and so has the GIW. He can still help people but the pressure isn’t just on him anymore. His parents accept him. Danny is happy.

But one day, one fateful day…

Pariah rises again.

The magic users are scrambling. The JL and YJ are frantic. Danny is…

Pretty calm, actually. A little annoyed, perhaps.

That kinda tracks. He’s the high king of the infinite realms and all the dead. He’s defeated Pariah before- and now he’s older, more experienced, with a team that he’s never had before. He’s explored his powers and authority to an extent his past self could only dream of.

So when Pariah Dark, former Tyrant of the Dead, storms the watchtower where the heroes have gathered, they’re a little off-put by it but ready to defend their home with all their might- a newfound confidence from Phantom’s nonchalance.

But who would’ve guessed that Pariah Dark, former Tyrant of the dead, would ask Phantom..

If he could adopt him?

Danny guessed, it seemed.

“No.” Danny glared at him.

“I can give you-“

“I don’t want anything from you, you frootloop. Piss off.” Danny said pointedly, tapping his foot impatiently.

“I can offer you wisdom to lead your kingdom that you won’t find anywhere else!” Pariah said exasperated, waving his arms around.

“I don’t want a tyrant’s advice.” Danny sneered. The rest of the heroes exchanged glances. This certainly wasn’t on anybody’s bingo card.

“Alright, that’s fair, but-“

“Ive been ruling my kingdom just fine. Piss off.” Danny jabbed a finger at him. “I will eat your core if you ask again.” Pariah paled, (as much as a ghost could), then grumbled about getting him eventually before finally, finally leaving in a swirling, neon green portal.

Danny left in one of his own, after bidding goodbye to the rest of them. Nobody wanted to ask what that was about. He seemed pissed.

.

A little while later, the heroes finally got around to processing what exactly happened that morning.

The.. former king of the dead, known tyrant, the one who Danny defeated.. came back to ask??? If he could adopt Danny???? Again???? As in he tried asking before????????

There was much pandemonium for the heroes that fateful day.

Half of the reason Bruce has as much information as he does on everyone and everything is because people talk at him. He’s a good listener, the best kind of listener because he does just that—sits there in relative silence and listens. Batman doesn’t tell anyone anything, meaning secrets are safer with him than anyone else. Which also means so is all of the gossip. Batman knows all the dating drama in the League and the Titans and he is more than content to let everyone think it’s because he’s just that observant. He knows intimate details of people’s lives not because he had to dig for it but because they’re constantly spilling their guts to him. There’s only one person Bruce ever breathes a word of this to: Alfred Pennyworth. The only man more tight lipped than him. So do Alfred and Batman know about your heart breaking childhood? Yes. But they also know about the blood feud you have with your neighbor because they’re blocking your driveway with their car.

Okay but Justice League Unlimited out of its way to showcase many different nuanced relationships and I love it so much so here’s my top 5 of JLU duets (romantic relationships excluded even though both wonderbat and greenhawk both started at the base of a friendship)

5. Wonder Woman and J’on Jonzz - they both have a sort of gravitas and treat the mission with seriousness. My heart melted when I saw Diana hug in the series finale and was so happy to see him, they definitely understood one another perfectly.

4. J’on J’onzz and Superman - alien outcast club aka two superpowerful dudes who treat their mission seriously too. I loved the Christmas episode with J’on spending the holidays at Kents, it was wonderful at many different levels. I also loved how J’on morphed his body to resemble Superman more right after Supes and Bats rescued him in the first episode.

3. Green Lantern and Flash - opposites who learn from one another, jokester and solider? I love all of their scenes, especially in the JL episodes they spent a lot of time together and it was always a treat

2. Shayera and Flash - two redheads with absolutely different temperaments. Wally being the only one to hug Shayera after the voting at the end of Satrcrossed, Shayera helping Wally to flirt with Fire? Very iconic, thank you

1. Batman and Green Lantern - this bromance lives my rent free, their best episode? The Once and Future Thing of course, the banter while sliding through time tunnel in GL’s bubble is just incredible. You can’t tell me they don’t think of one another as BFFs, the stoic Batman went ahead and

[reggiebkack]

I need a fic where someone in the justice league calls out mom and Batman responds because he’s used too his childeren sometimes calling him that (preferably superbat fic)

[thief-of-eggs]

The JLA hosts a Halloween party to boost moral, and everyone is encouraged to bring their families. Costumes are expected.

Dick goes dressed up as Discowing. He unanimously wins the “scariest costume” award, even after protesting that his costume was not meant to be frightening.

No one ever lets him live that one down.

Somebody said this, and I can't stop thinking about it... (From this post: The Crush of The Justice League)

Cw: Everybody gets a lil silly with their thoughts, nothing is really descriptive

Btw, in this, only Oliver knows that Bruce is Batman! (And Clark and Barry are unmarried, Lois is just FWB.)

Omega!Bruce thinking his team just looks up to him for the normal reasons: as a mentor, the voice of reason, and the one who seemingly knows everything about everything.

What he didn't expect was for all the attention one meeting to be caused by the entire League placing bets on his secondary gender.

Clark and J'onn are aliens, so their secondary genders don't fit into human standards. If anything, J'onn's switched at will and Clark was whatever the hell the highest tier was, because there was no way in hell that the man who could knock down entire buildings with his bare hands was anywhere NEAR being an omega.

Alpha!Barry and Alpha!Hal has bets on him being a regular old alpha, especially because of how broody and authoritative all the time.

Beta!Diana and Beta!Dinah are torn between Bruce being beta or omega. Sure, he's all big and strong, but they once had a night out with Lois where she said that Clark, of all people, enjoyed the other end of things every now and then.

The only omega on the team, Oliver, is the only one who knows the truth. He's been in that man's bed one too many times to keep up Bruce's playboy persona. This was before he mated Dinah, of course. He'd never betray his beloved wife like that.

It's when Bruce hears the chatter get a little too loud does he realize what they're talking about, and his stoic face dips into a disapproving frown. "We have an interstellar threat, yet you are all placing bets on what I am?"

He raises a brow under the cowl, and while no one can see it, they all know they're in deep shit if they continue to talk.

The Justice League decide then and there that if Batman can get Superman to back down, he must be whatever an Alpha God is.

They just don't see the way he comes home to dote on his pups, grabbing Damian and Duke and dragging them away to the Manor Nest so he can scent them. He would like his others, but they have their own lives to live, so he won't bring them back home just because his instincts urge him to.

When identity reveals come along, everyone is dumbfounded. There's no way that Bruce Wayne, billionaire omega playboy, is the Dark Knight.

An image hits Clark in the head, the memory of him and Bruce in a back room together after an interview surfacing yet again. He'd only dared to remember that on lonely nights where patrol had been too much and he had adrenaline to blow off.

Diana, Dinah, Flash, and Hal are all collectively blinking slowly, staring at the uncowled man.

Bruce is now considered a free-for-all. Every unmated member of the League is actively trying to mate the Bat, offering stupid little trinkets and complimenting his work. The alphas get a little carried away, often peeling off scent blockers in the Watchtower to try and get a rouse out of Bruce.

Clark and Diana will randomly pick him up, as if to show off their strength, Hal will construct whatever Bruce needs at the moment, and Barry has become his personal errand boy.

While Bruce would say this is a little over-the-top, he's never seen his team so cooperative before.

Sure, though, now he can't pick a mate from the League (they'd probably kill one another in jealousy), but he can at least reap the benefits.

[weepingfishturtledragon]

Flash: Hey Cap, why don't you drink?

Cap: What come on, I'm a little guy! I can't drink alcohol.

Flash: What are you talking about? You're enormous!

Cap: You know what I mean, I'm like little.

Flash: You're like 8 feet tall, you're a monster!

Cap: But inside I'm small. I can't do all the things all the bigger guys do.

Flash: ???

I will never stop making long ass incoherent textposts. fuck you. Justice league headcanons

John Stewart needs glasses but doesn't wear them. He insists he doesn't need them. He thinks they make him look old but he'll deny it.

Clark, J'onn, and and John play World of Warcraft. Bruce will play if they need another player for something, Wally will to annoy them by doing everything wrong.

Diana calls the others at ungodly times of day and night with random 'Mans World' questions. Her lack of knowledge about the world is a lot more extensive than some would expect. She has called Clark at 3 am to ask what a parking ticket is.

Shayera barely has a civilian identity. She lives in a cave somewhere. She has tried to rent apartments before but she's such a notoriously horrible tenet she's blacklisted everywhere. You cannot bring a tree in here Shay. Nor can you throw bottles at people from the roof. Evicted.

J'onn also gives bare minimum effort to maintaining a civilian identity. He gives up on the "John Jones" make within like a month, fuck it all he's just J'onn J'onzz. He walks around full green at the supermarket. The neighbors are used to it they don't care. "ALIEN SPOTTED AT CAT CAFE ?" - that's just J'onn. He's kinda weird but he's cool

Bruce tries to get out of holidays by fleeing to the watchtower a lot, but Alfred stopped taking it as an excuse. He's one of the only civilians allowed up there, mostly because everyone else likes watching him rip Batman a new one. He's also instituted a reward for getting Bruce back to the manor at reasonable hours, baked goods of the captors choice. Bruce doesn't stand a chance.

Wally is a bad driver. He speeds, go figure. Because of this he's lost his license once or twice, and had to redo driver's ed course, included the monitored driving portion. Of course the league gets roped into this. Mostly John, because he's defacto dadcore. It's the worst week of both of their lives.

Clark has many, many shirts with the Superman logo that he wears a lot. Lois gets them for him because she thinks its funny. Every time he wears them, without fail, a child recognizes him as superman and gets starstruck, to which their parents apologize profusely. He doesn't mind, he gets it a lot.

Billionaire brothers au

Imagine Bruce and Oliver having terrible insomnia because they had been kidnapped alot as kids, and had been in alot of danger. So, neither of them can sleep unless they feel safe, either surrounded by the kids or eachother.

Imagine after a long mission, neither of them have been sleeping during it as they hadn't felt safe, both of them just curling up next to eachother in civies on the long flight home without thinking.

It would shock the JL, as Bruce is always serious around them, and also because of how young they are (22-23). Also I imagine that Bruce has long curly hair which he normally has up, but is just scattered around him. So Bruce and Ollie just sleep properly for the first time in days while the team just try their best to stay away from them because they don't know what's going on.

Imagine after weeks of solving problems, and after an invasion from mind controlling aliens (where the whole JL but Bruce and Ollie got mind controlled) they just end up falling asleep instantly.

Or after one of them had a tough week they'd just comfort eachother like they've always done, one just walking over to the front of the other and wrapping their arms around the other and hiding from the world against them, both of them holding eachother automatically. I think it would just shock the JL, especially if it was Bruce who just walked up to Ollie and tucked himself against him, Ollie automatically wrapping his arms around B without thinking.

I just love the thought of Bruce and Ollie shocking the JL by acting like themselves due to knowing eachother for so long, and the justice league is absolutely confused half the time as they act like they hate eachother in meetings when it's just that they know eachother so well and both hate it when they act infront of others.

kerfuffle

summary: barry is late for work, again. he accidently bumps into you on the way and asks you out for coffee as an apology, could this lead to something more? (fluff) (385 wrds) (m.list here !!)

notes: kinda wrote this in one sitting, so my bad for any grammar mistakes 😭 reader's pronouns aren't mentioned, tried to make this as inclusive as possible <3

barry like the dumbo he is slept through his alarm yet again! for someone who can run around the world in like 30 seconds, he’s still surprised that he’s late for work all the time! with only 20 minutes to spare he washes up quickly, gets dressed and heads out the door in a kerfuffle. getting off the train and exiting the station onto the street, he starts ruffling through his bag making sure he didn’t forget anything while rushing to make it out the door on time. while he’s looking for his phone charger, BAM, he bumps into someone. embarrassed and concerned he starts apologizing immediately.

“I am so, so sorry, i wasn’t looking where i was going and-” 

looking up from his bag to see who he actually bumped into, barry’s mouth goes dry immediately. the person standing in front of him was everything he could want, standing in front of him in the flesh. from your eye colour to your height, EVERYTHING was his ideal, something that would only show up in his dreams (talk about luck am i right 😏). 

“oh no it’s alright, don’t worry about it!”

not only were you a walking supermodel, but your voice and light laughter was delightful, a sound that made barry’s heart sing with longing and warmth, a feeling that made his hands clammy and voice get stuck in his throat. was he always this awkward when he met someone?? no that can’t be true, this is different.

“yeah i am so sorry, do you think you would uh, like to grab a coffee with me as an apology? my treat for bumping into you!”

“oh no you don’t have to, you really don’t!”

“no please, i insist!”

“alright…” you say with humor in your voice, “i’ll meet you around…?”

“does 3pm tomorrow work for you?”

“oh yeah for sure!” 

feeling a wave of relief wash over him, barry quickly asks you for your name, feeling dumb for not asking you sooner.

“it’s y/n, and yours is-”

“-barry. barry allen.”

both of you stand in silence for a few beats, taking in each other and thinking about the next day. with soft blushes and trembling fingers the both of you exchange contact info and head your separate ways, excited for what’s to come.

hope y'all enjoyed, this was so fun to write but my writing skills are kinda mid so any constructive criticism is appreciated !!

[arkangelo-7]

Love the idea of the Batfamily showing a serious, united front whenever they’re working with the Justice League (i.e., obeying Bruce’s orders without question or defaulting to Dick’s authority, following Bruce’s comm protocol, upholding expected field etiquette, coordinating with one another with terrifying efficiency, and generally just not fucking around), but then the minute they get back to the Cave they immediately start to throw hands over who gets to use the PS5.

[crimsonboomerang]

I RP as Crimson Boomerang a more evil version of Captain Boomerang or I do the original from the PS5 game version and Suicide Squad 2016 movie mixed in sometimes I also RP as Phoebe Sterling my OC Character so that's who I roleplay as.

I know my friend kinda ships Captain Boomerang with another Captain Boomerang I ship him with Phoebe Sterling speaking of her I came up with the ship name Phoeberang also am the one who came up with Evil Boomerang he's like a more dark version of him but still has heart he's a demon half angel anyways am open to roleplay also asks are open if you want to talk and so on just don't be too much for me that makes me uncomfortable and so on where I have to block certain things other then that have fun Boomnation rise.

[2003donniefan]

When you think about it do humans in the DC verse lack/or posses more of the instincts we have?

I say this because when you think about it, when you are born into a world were super intelligent, meta-humans, gods, demons, aliens and etc exist, with superheros who protect the world you know, your bound to evolve to either lack or posses more of some survival instincts right? Like I get it they do in some verses but a lot of the time the TV shows or movies and even comics are rather independent and face similar but different things so?.

We don't have that (that we know of), an have a rather corrupt world so we evolve to combat the things around us that don't protect us or have things in the body to do that. In certain verses it seems those humans bodies lack the ability to sustain themselves from some unknown germ or the like, like how we can for awhile.

(I get their cartoons and fiction but I like thinking in realistic terms so does my theory have merit? Do you agree? Please be polite about any opposing opinions if you comment.)

Justice League Unlimited headcannons part III

***

Green Lantern came up with the idea of patrols with Atom as a form of disciplinary punishment for being late. Absolutely no one is late for their shifts anymore.

***

Shooting contests were banned after Huntress and Green Arrow were showing off their skills and tried to ask people to stand in front of them with an apple on their heads.

***

Aztec loves to watch cooking shows, especially those ones that include preparing large portions of meat.

***

Question checks Watchtower's water supply at least once a week. Batman secretly double checks his results.

***

Superman's birthday wish was to have a food fight in the canteen. Even Batman participated.

***

Aquamen and Shayera once held a contest to outdrink one another. Aquamen won, but needed three days to cure his hangover.
