DP x DC: The Rivalry

It's a little-known fact among the Watchtower residents that there is a fierce rivalry going on amongst its members. On one side, the Flash, a core member of the Justice League. On the other, Daniel "Danny" Fenton, Head of Engineering for the Watchtower.

Nobody knows when the rivalry started. Some rumors say that it began when, after hearing the Flash rant about how stupid it is to believe in ghosts, Danny took the effort to reroute all of his outgoing calls to the advice line of the JLD. Others say that after Danny doubled the max speed of one of the jets, Flash took it upon himself to have a joyride in it and then submit a complaint about it being too slow... twelve separate times, each one no more than 24 hours after Danny had finished the last speed improvements.

Ever since, the two have been taking potshots at each other with pranks large and small. Danny arranged a standard maintenance check to change room authorizations... resulting in the Flash being unable to access the kitchens for a week. In return, the Flash spent an entire week replacing every single cup of coffee Danny had with the cheapest, most watered-down decaf he could find - and he swapped out the mugs for Flash-branded ones as well. Danny's modification of the Flash's suit to change colors to randomized sets of the most eye-searingly-bright, clashing colors possible for exactly one second after being exposed to the Speed Force were met with "Kick Me!" signs taped to Danny's back.

But... surely this has gone too far, right? Flash... really can't think of what he can do to top this.

He stares as every single Watchtower engineer zips between tasks using the Speed Force as if it's nothing. It's not a permanent change, thank god, he can see the packs on them that apparently give them the Speed Force, but it's still ridiculous.

You know what, no. He's just... not gonna engage with that. He turns around and leaves the engineering department.

It becomes a lot harder to avoid engagement when, over the course of the day, he has to witness each and every member of the Justice League speed around with a Speed Force pack of their own. Shouldn't Batman and Wonder Woman be above this sort of thing? Why does Superman need to be faster?!

Y’all, if these two don’t propose to one another in Season 3 I’m gonna crash out—

Hidden Frames: Lacey's Makeup Parlour likely takes place in a morgue.

Text from top image:

Vanity doesn't die! Vanity doesn't die! You are not excused from vanity yet! You are not excused from vanity yet! You still can't be looking bad now! You still can't be looking bad now! I can fix you. I can fix you. I can fix you...

Bottom image is from the second to last customer.

The idea makes sense with Jay being there, too. The illusion of a makeup parlour breaks when one of Lacey's clients is Jay, who is already dead. It's the explanation for the weird occurrences with the customers needing fixing, and the white gloves accompanying it.

I love the trope of the justice league all thinking that batman is a metahuman, but he just doesn't talk about it because he's secretive about literally everything. Every league member has their own theory on what his powers are which they love to debate and cite examples for whenever batman can't hear them

Barry thinks it's an intelligence thing, like his IQ was boosted or something, that's why he's the world's greatest detective

Hal claims he was bitten by a radioactive bat and has bat powers like echolocation (yes, he knows it sounds stupid, and yes, he will die on this hill, and one day when he gets definitive proof everybody will have to get on their knees and apologize for laughing at him)

Superman thinks he was involved in an experiment by one of Gotham's rogues when he was younger and has standard physical powers (strength, speed, endurance, etc) but just at very low levels so they don't stand out but still put him ahead of normal humans in physical capability

Arthur thinks he has a regenerative factor bc no way an ordinary human gets hit like that so much and keeps going

Victor thinks he's some sort of empath and that's how he's able to do detective work so well and come up with such good plans on the fly

J'onn knows Batman is human (for obvious reasons) and declines to contribute to these conversations because "it would spoil all the fun"

Diana also knows (because she's not stupid) but contributes to these conversations not with her own theories but by egging on everybody else's because she loves chaos

Bruce is aware of the situation and hasn't said anything because he's not sure yet if it's more or less beneficial that they think he's a metahuman (though he does wish Diana would stop encouraging Hal's radioactive bat theory)

Superman, sitting down at the Watchtower Cafe table: I'm worried about Batman.

Green Lantern: we're all a little worried about Batman.

Superman: No I mean, since Nightwing moved out for college.

Aquaman: Oh, I thought you were just making a generalization.

Flash: yeah like, I'm worried about Batman someday setting off a low yield nuclear device because the cafeteria ran out of lime jello.

Superman: I think Batman really misses Nightwing.

Green Lantern, leaning over to Aquaman: lend him Garth for the weekend.

Superman: he got a cat to keep him company.

Flash: you're kidding.

Superman: he takes it everywhere. To bed, to the bathroom-

Flash: he takes the kitty to the potty?

Aquaman, to Flash: Dude, we talked about this.

Batman, walks by the cafeteria table holding a cat.

Batman: gentlemen.

All, awkwardly: hey.

Green Lantern: Batsy, you gonna introduce us to your little friend?

Batman: apologies. Gentlemen I'd like you to meet Dr. Robert Oppenheimer.

Flash, Green Lantern, and Aquaman: hi, hello.

Batman: now if you'll excuse me, the father of the atomic bomb wants a saucer of milk.

Exit Batman and Dr. Robert Oppenheimer.

Green Lantern: Okay, I get it we're worried about Batman

Rewatching the first few episodes of Young Justice, and this is kinda birdflash kinda not (you can absolutely take it as them just being besties), but Wally grabbing Robin’s utility belt when Dick uses it in CADMUS, so Wally doesn’t get left behind is SO cute to me. Dick is just minding his business, being one half of the dynamic duo who doesn’t play well on teams, but then there’s Wally who is so clearly repeatedly saying “if you’re going, I’m going” by sticking close to Robin. Dick isn’t thinking about the others, but Wally is SO prepared for Robin’s next movements, and it speaks to such an amazing friendship and partnership in the field😭I miss them so much - they were never the same again after the 5 year time skip what HAPPENED to THIS version of them goddammit
