Dick was sure that he must be hallucinating.

"Fuck off, man! You've met me maybe twice, you don't get to hate me yet. I'm fucking tired. Now, make your choice, flee or get souped."

"I can hate you, Phantom, you-"

"I DIDN'T KILL YOUR CAT! YOUR CAT ATE A CANDLE AND DIED OF POISONING. Good god- get in the fucking thermos."

And with that, Phantom (if the name was correct) pulled a thermos out of nowhere and sucked the adversary into it. The cap was screwed on, and Phantom stood still for a few seconds.

"Don't you just hate when people blame everything on you?"

Dick couldn't tell if the question was to the air or to him.

"I mean, really, you try your best to protect the living realm from ghosts and people still think you're the root of all evil. That man was 80 when he died about a year ago. He died of heart issues after his fucking cat ate a grape-scented candle and died. He's tried to attack me twice, because he's convinced it's all my fault. I really can't tell why. Do they all really think I'd kill a cat? I've saved their lives more times than I can count."

Dick looks at Wally.

"I wonder why they hate me, sometimes. Is it the same reason my peers at school seem to hate me? Is there something I don't understand? I try to protect them, to be kind, but they still hate me."

Dick's not sure he understands what's going on. His bat paranoia is screaming at him, but something else is giving him a protective feeling.

Then, Phantom begins to stride towards the bed as he talks.

"I give up everything for them. I run on ectoplasm and fumes because they need my help. I've forgotten what it feels like to sleep. I don't understand. I do everything for them. My mom, my dad, I make sure their experiments don't go south, I make sure they don't meet any ghosts they can't handle, and they still... they still want me on a table, under a knife. I'm scared. I wonder if one day they'll catch me. I wonder if I should let them."

The kid, inexplicably, sits between Wally and Dick, then flops backwards onto their bed.

"Did you know there used to be a mammal so small it weighed only a gram? Some of them still stay in the Ghost Zone and I like to visit them and hold 50 of them in my hand just to parse the fact that they're that small. I cry sometimes when I think about the fact that they're extinct."

Phantom says this as bright green tears begin to leak down his face.

"They're so small... They're so small. you could fit three on your fingernail. No, seven. Ten."

Silence.

"You guys are boring hallucinations. Usually hallucinations say stuff about worthiness. Or they're just squirrels darting around the legs of lunch tables. You guys are weird. Do you think this means I need more ectoplasm? I wonder how long my human needs can be forgone before I start to feel it. What counts as feeling it, though?"

"Hallucinations," Wally says helpfully, breaking the silence.

"Damn, you're right."

"He usually is," Dick supplies carefully.

"I mean yeah, he is the Flash. Usually you superhero hallucinations just tell me I'll never be a real hero though. And usually you show up in costume."

And that is a resounding Oh Fuck. Identities have been compromised.

"God, I wish ghosts would be less loose-lipped about secret identities. It's so disrespectful. Sorry Mr. Wally Flash sir, your dead friend told me. She haunts you on the regular. She says you're kinda stupid, but that's stupid, because you're a real hero. Unlike me."

"I thought you just said I was a hallucination?"

"Don't confuse me, man, I haven't slept in a month. I can't follow anything right now."

"So sleep," Wally says, and Dick remembers why he married this man. "You're tired, get some rest. We're the good kind of hallucinations, we can protect you in your sleep."

Phantom's eyes widen. "Really?" he whispers, so reverentially Dick is reminded of a 5-year-old meeting a disney princess.

"Yeah, man. We'll keep a watch out. Anything happens, we'll wake you," Dick says.

"Thanks Nightwing," Phantom says like he's a kid in Candyland. The awe and relief in his voice drifts as he immediately falls asleep.

There's a sleeping hero on Dick and Wally's bed now.

...

"Wally, can we keep him?"

Short DP X DC Prompts #108

Wally West wakes up to a loud crash in his and Dick’s apartment. The cause of the noise is a dazed black haired teen who got thrown at the window next to their balcony. (Whichever ghost is the cause of Danny getting yot, who knows?)

Little Danny's Big Adventure

New idea.

Okay now hear me out.

-Pulls out AU idea cauldron and tosses stuff into it-

Let's put in some Ghost King/Prince Danny.... But also some deaged to toddlerhood Danny that gets yeeted into the DCverse!

Like imagine, tiny baby Danny with his tiny crown of ice floating above his head and his galaxy cape wrapped around him and uses it like a baby blanket. He didn't mean to fall into a different universe, a natural portal opened up and he was being a curious little thing! He didn't mean to trip and fall in during his nap time.

Nor was he expecting to fall into this realm during a rogue attack and knock out said rogue cause they were being a meanie and harming people and now Danny just wants his nap time cause he spent a lot of his tiny engery and he wants to find a nice spot.

Danny finds a place to crash, snuggling himself into his cape and the astronaut bear Danielle got him during her last visit that he takes everywhere since.

He's out like a light as the door to this safe house that belongs to one of the Bats opens up.

Meanwhile. In the Infinite Realms, Queen Regent Jazz is going into Mama Bear Jazz Mode trying to find her deaged brother, keeping the Realms in check, and is resisting the urge to put CW in time out Soup Time because he's being cyptided again about Danny whereabouts!!! UGH!

Out of curiosity, do you ever plan on finishing The Last Halloween? If not, did you have a plan for what the ending would have been? :)

I do plan on finishing it! Nice username and pfp, by the way :]

I've had the ending in mind since the start, and it's just been a question of finding the time and funding to finally get back to it full-time. The games have finally given me that time and funding, though the time part will have to wait until Scarlet Hollow is done!

So it's gonna be a little while, but I look forward to finally getting to show people what's been in my head since I was like, 20

[trix1erose]

no, to YOU it’s a bad game mechanic where the choices you make don’t actually effect the plot despite that being the whole point - to ME its interactive storytelling where youre stuck to play out whatever destiny was set for you no matter how desperately you may try to change it. doomed by the narrative, if you will
