#i love this so much#but i have heavy thoughts#1. what happened to vlad. he poisoned a kid and is also half ghost what did they do with him. did he just kidnap danny and vlad just -#-forever wonders what happened to him?

!!! I kept that vague on purpose for interpretation! And frankly also because I haven't thought too deep on it yet-- but my idea was that, at least in the beginning, Vlad is actively still looking for Danny, and its too dangerous for Bruce to try and take him head on in custody battle because of the whole "halfa-overshadowing-he-can-just-mind-control-the-courts" thing! If nothing happens, Vlad goes back into billionaire isolation and Danny keeps his head down to avoid his attention. If something happens: prison. Probably.

do they never casually encounter each other? cause imagine this. listen. listen#older dick taking danny for lunch#just chilling#maybe in the middle of a pun match#>:)#introduce vlad#who has believed for some years that danny's core broke and he ceased to exist#and then sees him happy with a new family. laughing and (apparently) HEALTHY#and#hshshdhdhdhshsjhddjjs#DANIEL?!?!? little badger is that you?!?!? (while crying crocodile tears)#how does danny react to this

THIS! I am delighted to sink my teeth into this. Danny would freeze if he saw or heard Vlad, its a very different reaction than before Vlad poisoned him. And for, well, obvious reasons. Vlad's hurt him before, but that's to be expected from an archnemesis, and Danny would always beat him in the end.

This? This is different. Danny's suffered under Vlad's abusive hands, and suffered long after he escaped him, because of him. Danny's terrified of him, and Vlad poisoning him is one of the main reasons why. Hearing his voice, and seeing him approaching him, has Danny freezing in his seat.

(Of course his younger-big brother dick notices this, and gets immediately on guard. And then he sees who the guy is, and his body language rapidly turns tense and hostile.)

Dick starts standing up, ready to verbally assault Vlad Masters, and Danny grabs his hand and yanks him down. Tearing his eyes away for a moment to dig them into Dick; "No. No, no. Don't. Please don't." He whispers to him, and then immediately turns back to see Vlad.

Vlad tries to hug him, and Danny full body flinches away. Only to remember that Dick is right behind him, and like a good older-little brother, adjusts to try and shield him from Vlad. Vlad gets that hug, although Danny is as stiff as a statue, before he pulls away and starts "fretting" over him.

Grabbing his shoulders; touching his face; trying to hold his arms. Trying to drag him up and out of his seat to make it easier to pull him away. He's very Mother Gothel levels of manipulation and paternal concern. "Oh Daniel, you have no idea how worried sick I've been. You know you're far too fragile to run off like that, god it's been ages! I'm so relieved you're alright."

Danny is. trying not to hyperventilate. Dick is like, .5 seconds away from leaping over the table and socking Vlad Masters in the jaw right then and there. Vlad doesn't recognize Dick as famous Richard Grayson-Wayne because Dick threw on a simple anti-paparazzi disguise. (Hoodie, mask, hat). And when Vlad asks for his name, Dick lies out of his ass and gives him a fake name on the spot.

("You must be the gentleman taking care of my Daniel, I must have your name.") ("...I'm Alex.") ("Alex..?") ("Hart.") (Well, Alexander, I really must thank you again. I'll make sure you're properly compensated, I know my Daniel can be quite a handful.") (Vlad was fully intending on having "Alex" killed. Because he's a possessive, evil bastard of a man)

Danny does get away of course. But not without a little trouble at first. Dick tries to passively coax Vlad into giving Danny back with various excuses (going back to their "apartment" to get Danny's things, for one) but Vlad rebuffs each one. Until eventually Danny manages to get his bearings, and calm himself down long enough to shove Vlad off him and run away again.

Dick follows his lead, of course. But not before throwing his drink in Vlad's eyes, calling him a slew of insults, and then while Vlad is trying to get coffee out of his eyes, proceeds to toss him over the table.

They both get home safely, but the stress of it all leaves Danny sick the next day, and paranoid for the rest of the week.

#YYYYYYYYY#POR OTRO LADO#2. jason#jason who wants to find his mother#does he go to danny?#asks for advice but still dies?#never died and instead serves as a catalyst for finally having healthy communication on the family?#if he does die#can danny look for him on the realms?#is danny the reason jay revives?#is he there when he crawls his way out of the coffin#desperately digging from the other side?#does danny try to kill joker?

I really love the idea that Danny manages to save Jason. Canon divergence my beloved <3. Of course Jason still dying is very angsty -- and i've had thoughts about him getting angry on Danny's behalf too upon realizing Danny's predicament -- Bruce has two dead children and he hasn't even been able to help the first one. BUT

Danny managing to reach the warehouse with a few minutes to spare before the bomb goes off, and desperately trying to get the doors -- locked and chained -- off. For some reason or another, he doesn't have his lockpicks on him. He's yelling for Jason, trying to get a response.

(Danny calls all his little brothers various bird nicknames too. "Chickling", "chick", and "birdy" are his favorites. Fledgling and baby bird are a little more uncommon. If he's feeling playful or if his brothers are grumpy, he calls them "broodling".)

In the end, Danny decides to go "fuck it" and uses his intangibility to bypass the wall. He nearly goes into a rage when he sees Sheila standing there smoking a cigarette, and doing nothing to help his baby brother bleeding out on the floor.

He ignores her and gathers his brother instead, which seems to kick Sheila into gear and as Danny's beelining for the door she asks him "what about me?"

He tells her to fuck off, then mutters an apology to Jason because he knows that's his mom. Jason doesn't have much of a response. Jason is concussed.

Danny gets them out of the building just as it explodes, and since he's already using his intangibility, he goes one step "fuck IT" further, and shields them both. He regrets nothing. The both of them live, just heavily injured.

If jason dies, then Danny is not the reason Jason revives, but he is there when Jay drags himself out of the grave. He's there to sink his fingers into the gravedirt and dig him out in return. He's holding Jason for nearly an hour, the both of them crying, when he decides to call Bruce and let him know. Then while he's at it, lets Dick know.

Dick and Bruce are both there in ten.

(Danny can't look for Jason in the realms because imo, he has no access to it. And he couldn't even if he would, his body would automatically absorb the high concentration of ectoplasm in the realms, and that would be like giving a feast to a stray dog for the blood blossom in his veins.)

(Doesn't mean he hasn't considered it if it meant having a chance to see Jason again.)

Danny would try and kill the Joker, and just like Batman, would have to be stopped. Danny nearly kills himself in the process because of his intense grief state making his powers fritz out and his ecto-levels rocket off the charts + he'd willingly using his powers if it meant killing the fucker that murdered his baby brother. Danny very, very fucking nearly goes ghost.

I am loudly pushing the batdad agenda i am loudly pushing the— DPxDC Prompt

“Woah. You look like shit."

Granted, that’s probably not the first thing Danny should be saying to the guy that just bit the curb, but in his defense; he’s not running on 100% right now either.

The man -- tall, towering, and broader than Danny is tall -- whips around on his heel, black frayed cape flaring out impressively. Danny would've whistled in appreciation, but he takes the time instead to wipe the back of his hand across his mouth, smearing the blood running from his nose across his cheek.

"Sorry." He blinks widely, not even flinching as the man with the horns zeroes in on him. "That was rude of me. I have a really bad brain-to-mouth filter; Sam says its what always gets me into trouble."

And she's not wrong either, per say. His smart mouth is what landed him in this situation -- with blood blossom extract running through his veins and cannibalizing the ectoplasm in his bloodstream. Thanks Vlad.

The man grunts at him; a short, curt "hm" that shouldn't make Danny smile, but he does because he's somewhat delirious and probably concussed. The man keeps some kind of distance, sinking towards the shadows of Gotham's alleyway like he dares to melt right into it.

If it's supposed to scare Danny, it doesn't work. Danny's never been afraid of the dark; he's always been able to hide himself in it. He blinks slowly at the mass of shadows.

"You look hurt." The shadows says, blurring together around the edges. Danny squints, and licks his lips to get the blood dripping down his chin off. Ugh, he hates the taste of blood.

"I am." He says, "My godfather poisoned me. M'dying." The agony of the blood blossom eating him from the inside out looped back around to numbing a while ago, so all he feels is half-awake and dazed.

"Hey," Danny stumbles forward towards the man, a bloodied hand reaching out to him. "You-- you're a hero, right? You're not attacking me; which is more than I can say for most costumed people I've met." Maybe it's a poor bar to judge someone at, but he's already established that Danny's not in his right mind.

The man makes no change in expression, but Danny realizes blearily that it's hard to tell with the shadows on his face. He stays still long enough for Danny to latch onto the cape -- stretchy, but almost soft under his fingers.

He looks up blearily into the whites of the man's eyes. "Can you help me? I don't-- I don't wanna die." Again. He doesn't wanna die again. He blinks slow and lizard-like. "I mean- I'll probably get to see mom and dad again, but I told them I'd at least try and make it to adulthood."

There's a clatter down the street, and Danny's ghost sense chills up his spine and leaves a bitter, ashy taste in his mouth. He immediately knows who it belongs to even before the deceptively gentle; "Daniel?" echoes down the way.

"Daniel? Quit your games, badger, Gotham is dangerous for children."

Danny's mouth pulls back, and blood spills against his tongue. "Please." He rasps, and grabs onto the shadow's cape with both hands. "Please. He's going to kill me. Please--"

"Daniel? Is that you?"

His lips part, dragging in air to plead with the darkness again. He doesn't need to, the whites of his eyes narrow, and the cape whirls around him before Danny can blink. Soon swaddled in shadows, the Night lifts him up, and steals him away.
