Molly Upton Watchtower (1975) Quilt

“J’onn hates being around Batman because of his mind” Wrong. J’onn craves the moments he has to spend in Batman’s presence because Bruce Wayne is somehow the only person on the Watchtower, save maybe Victor, who can consistently keep his thoughts at an “inside” level.

Dp x dc AU - If the Internation Space Station orbits the Earth 16 times a day, then so does the Watchtower.

Danny’s on track to move out of his parent’s house and move to Gotham for college (He swears that Sam bribed the board to let him in- and she wasn’t even going to that university!) but the dorms don’t open for another three days and he cannot wait to escape. Seeing his parents try to perfect yet another weapon to use against him while he changed out the ecto filters on the portal was too much. He’s completely over the idea of staying when he already has everything packed and ready to go.

The solution? Take all his boxes into his haunt in the Ghost Zone, leave them there and then spend some time in camping in space. He’s already explored the Infinite Realms enough to be bored of it for a minute (not to mention he wants to avoid getting more ‘favors’ to do from Clockwork) and hell, he just wants to see some stars.

He grabs his tent, a sleeping bag and all the food and things he could need and brings it into the atmosphere with him. Keeping it all tethered to him, Danny stays in a fixed position above Gotham (Cause that’s where he’s going next, duh) and treats himself to some quality Me-time.

Only problem is that several times a day he has to make himself intangible while he lets satellites and things pass through. Easy enough and honestly pretty interesting to observe as a wannabe engineering student.

He doesn’t know when exactly it happened the first time- but it turns out the Heroes of Earth all congregated in a satelite office building? It was bigger than the ISS! What the heck!?

Going intangible but not invisible, the JL spot Danny and are incredibly confused how an ‘Alien’ teen just happens to appear in their meeting rooms disappearing at the rate (slowly but surely) of the Watchtower moving through space. Was that camping gear? How was he roasting a marshmallow? Did propane camping stoves even work in space??

16 times a day they get the opportunity to ask Danny a few questions. He mostly ignores them or gives them joke answers. Eventually Martian Manhunter phases through the Watchtower to join him.

They talk about how hard transition periods in life can be and having strained relationships with family. J’ohn returns to the watchtower on its next cycle and reports that the kid is just fine, being an adult is just a hard thing to do.

Clockwork's job is to overseer time and has to watch over the timelines continuously but there would be times where he gets to go out of his tower for a few days to take a break and this time, he wants to hang out with Danny.... In Gotham... To scold a certain speedster while Danny accompanies him.

Danny doesn't know why he has to go with Clockwork cuz he could tell that there's nothing he'll be doing but still decides to go with Clockwork cuz he got bribed with a "3 free straight answers" if Danny ever wants to ask him about something.

So now, Danny was just happily following Clockwork like a duckling with his mother.

Danny doesn't know how and why they're suddenly in space but he doesn't question it. Not even when he encounters a flashy colorful costumed people in front of him.

And this whole time, he was just Danny Fenton so he can't escape without exposing his powers if the people in front of him attacks so he only has Clockwork to rely on as he clutches Clockwork's cloak.

I just realised something

In Batman the Animated Series, there's an episode where Bruce is knocked out and asleep for over half the episode and this nerdy kid Sherman and his friend are looking after him so the Penguin can't find him. The whole time Batman's supposed to be asleep and the eyes on his mask never close, which made me realise like a dumbass, he could be asleep in his Batman suit - or just his cowl and no one would know. It would be hilarious to me if one of the batfam or maybe even Justice League members (most likely Clark) were in the cave, had a full conversation with a sleeping Bruce, and did not even know it, cause they're used to him being eerily silent. So Clark could be full-on venting to him about his love life or idk the struggle of Superman, and when he's done go with a sigh: "Thanks for Listening B."

Maybe a day or two later he'll mention the conversation at the watchtower and Bruce will have no idea what he's talking about.

Here's something I might I add to the fic I'm working on.

Inspired by something I saw on Pinterest.

Danny *looking out into space on the Watchtower*: Space is beautifully tragic.

Randome JL member that happened to be walking by: Why's that?

Danny: Every time we look at the sky we see a graveyard of stars.

JL member *either disturbed or introspective*: Oh.

Danny: Trillions of stars have died, but we still get to see their light hundreds of lightyears later. The closest star most of us will see alive is our own. But even then, when it dies we won't won't know until eight minutes later.

JL member: That's.. that's cool.

Danny: I know right!

Batman slid over to Constantine after internally debating a singular issue over the last half hour.

“Constantine. I am unsure how to proceed with disciplining Danny. He needs sleep. How would you go about handling this?”

Constantine, on the verge of literally crying over the reminder that Batman is Danny’s father. Again.

“Bruce, he is a literal God-“

Bruce, outside Clark's room on the Watchtower: "Clark? What's happened, your message said it was an emergency--"

Clark: "Oh good I'm losing my mind." *yanks Bruce in*

Clark, exhausted, rocking a wailing Jon: "Lois had an emergency and I really need your help because no matter what I do he won't stop crying."

Bruce, rubbing his temples: "Uhh."

Clark: "Well?"

Bruce, glaring at him: "Well? Well what?"

Clark: "You've had so many kids!"

Bruce: "None of them were ever babies! Call me back in eight years!"

Both of them flinched as Jon wailed louder.

Clark, in despair: "I'm calling Diana."

-----------------------------

Diana, with lasso clenched in Jon's hand: "Why do you cry, little one?"

Jon: *still shrieking and sobbing*

Diana, looking up at them both: "This usually works."

---------------------------

Barry, hands on his knees as he examined Jon: "Maybe he's in pain?"

Bruce glared at Barry as Clark panicked, hands messing up hair.

-----------------------------

Oliver, cooing: "Uncle Ollie's got this lil' guy, you just need some white noise." *turns on his playlist*

Jon:*screaming now*

Bruce: "You're completely useless."

--------------------------------

Hal: "What's going on in here?" *elbowing his way into the crowded room*

Bruce: "Busy right now, Jordan." *frantically going through scientific articles*

Hal stared in horror at the child, who J'onn and Arthur are negotiating with while vigorously rocking the screaming toddler: "Jeez, what the hell are you two doing?" *conjures a giant green rattled and shakes it*

Jon, utterly transfixed abruptly stops crying. Clark raises his head off the table the second the sound stops, relieved.

Hal: "Want to see something even cooler?" *makes a plane and has it fly around*

Jon, reaching out to it, smiling a little despite the tears. Half the room isn't breathing.

Hal, grinning: "That's right little man, it is cool. So guys, seriously, why are we all in here?"

The League, as the small plane vanishes: "Don't stop!"

Hal, startled: "Whoa, relax! Uh, who wants to see a dinosaur?"

DPXDC Prompt #73

Danny was on the run from the GIW and he was damaged badly on the verge of retreating into his core. He was almost at Metropolis and was hopeful that he could leave his core with one of the supers. He spots Superman on top of the Daily Planet. Somehow he’s able to explain this to Superman and he actually agrees to take care of his core.

Superman realizes he may have bitten off more than he could chew. After Danny retreated into his core Superman felt weaker, this wasn’t as bad as actual Kriptonite but it did weaken him like it. He brings Danny to the Watchtower and the JL takes turns keeping an eye on the core.

Constantine walks into the room and in his shocked stated blurts, “How the hell did you get ahold of a baby ancients core!?! How did it get hurt!? I swear to god, do you want an inter dimensional war?! Because this is how you get an inter dimensional war!”

[frownyalfred]

Batman spaces that intimidate me as a writer because they can be so tricky to describe and the cost/operational capacity to maintain them is likely staggering for anyone other than Bruce:

The Cave (duh - I like to think there’s a ton of levels/rooms/etc that most people don’t even know about, even the Batkids. how far does it go down? only Bruce and maybe Alfred know)

The Watchtower (do you know how much it takes to maintain this?? TRILLIONS. the rooms, the staff, everything makes my head spin. describing it is basically just choosing what NOT to talk about in a given scene)

Wayne Manor (not necessarily costly to maintain outside of gas/electric and staffing but damn. it’s got so much history in its bones. secret passages, random connections to the Cave, tunnels back to downtown Gotham. and the rooms/suites/floors themselves can get very complicated and elaborate. you could get lost in there for days, easily)

[puppetwoman17]

Billy Batson is Gordon Ramsey in the kitchen. I don’t know why I think this, but I do.

Like I’m imagining there’s gonna be a party at the watchtower and Billy said he’d do the food. Everyone’s cool with it cause they know how good he is.

I think he spent some time at the Cafe of Eternity, looking through cookbooks and watching the cafe actually do the cooking process instead of the food just appearing.

And then someone makes the mistake of asking if they could help…

Billy’s all smiles, telling them that he can handle it, and he’s also a bit of a perfectionist in the kitchen. He doesn’t want to get mad at someone when he feels stressed. The other hero shakes their head. It’s fine! Billy’s chill! How hard can being his kitchen attendant be?

Oh my god it’s even worse than they thought.

If it’s a tiny mistake, like they got a measuring cup instead of one of the cans, Billy’s cool with it. But if you don’t stir that damn pot to perfection…

It doesn’t matter where in the Watchtower you are. You will hear this fourteen year old boy yell at this grown hero who looks like they went to be anywhere but here. They look completely traumatized.

Soon enough a small crowd is gathering, hiding behind a wall or even just watching in front of the kitchen. This does not deter Billy, especially after his assistant adds too less garlic for the pasta sauce. Do they want to numb their tongue or something??? Are they stupid? Billy grumbled as he takes the pot away and does the whole pasta dish himself.

Needless to say, no one volunteers to work with Billy in the kitchen. But everyone wants to eat his food. 🤩

Danny inner feeling is "save" (based on agit)

But as you could think of a 14 year old bulied teen with a unstable family life, who died. Didn't just want to save people, he also wanted to be saved.

Nobody knew this not even Danny.

But Constantin and Deadman both have the same problem. Sometimes when they are in the Watchtower they hear a child like voice, who is alway whispering:" somebody save me. I need help. Save me this is dagerous."

They never see something strange, a few other heroes, a few mechanics. All normal, they also don't hear it all the time. They just hear it when it's Danny's shift and he's working nearby, though a wall through the floor goes the konstant whisper.

It almost drives them insane.

Then Constantin realized that it might goes with the working shifts. Somebody must be haunted.
