its got like, everything!!! I love it so much! Its even got some movies that are parts of the animes/related to the animes and stuff

“Take that, Dad, I told you my ghost hobby wasn’t worthless! Secure government paycheck, here I come!”

“…Wow, that’s a lot of NDAs”

“Why am I being armed? I thought I was here to do, like, lab work? …For if one of the subjects escapes!? What the hell am I going to be working on?!”

“Why– why is there a child in that cell?”

Doors rushed past as the researcher sprinted down the hallway with his precious cargo, breathing heavily.

‘More of an ex-researcher now’ his mind commented unhelpfully.

He wasn’t the most athletic in the first place, never mind the weight of the teen in his arms. They unusually light, but that didn’t help much considering they were still inside the facility and it was rapidly entering full lockdown mode.

Already some automated systems were online, and quite frankly the only reasons they’d gotten this far despite them was that his uniform seemed to protect him from the blasts from the automated systems.

‘Of all the possible times to lose track of where I am. Why the hell do they make everything so same-y looking? They’re not even fitting the theme and making it all white!’

He glanced down to the figure in his arms. “Hey dude, do you have any sorta ghost-juju you can pull off to help us get out?”

The only response was a pained groan.

“…I’m gonna take that as a no. Fuck, we’re so dead.”

The ghost boy managed to slur something into his shoulder, words only partially discernible. “‘m –ly –lf dead.”

“Yeah okay, but I’m alive!” A beam of energy hit the wall only inches from his head and he yelped. Fuck, the security people were catching up. Guess the head start due to surprise could only last them so long.

Danny caught the attention of Batman while studying at Gotham University for his alternative energy projects. He’s hired right out of college to work on the Watchtower.

He shows absolutely no tell of his abilities till there’s a dire situation- Flash’s electric discharge messes with one of his projects in progress and the whole base would have lost air pressure if he hadn’t done a quick fix using telekinesis and ice.

Of course Batman notices.

Batman assumes the worst- he suspects Danny’s a rogue of some kind, someone who has infiltrated the Justice League with an ulterior motive. But he can’t just fire Danny now- he’s the only one who knows how the new Watchtower energy source works. Plus, he’s not letting Danny go anywhere until he’s figured out his true motives.

Cue Batman subtly testing Danny- tossing things at him to trigger inhuman fast reflexes, having him lift too-heavy machinery, setting up convenient opportunities to steal or snoop or otherwise be up to no good. Danny does take advantage but only once, to use a computer terminal with unlocked clearance. He didn’t plant any bugs that Barman could find, and he otherwise kept up his powerless civilian act perfectly.

Still, Batman’s not satisfied. He brings an infrasonic sound emitter to Danny’s lab one day, and that, of all things, is what gets Danny to break.

“I know what you’re doing,” Danny admits with a sigh, finally. “If you’re really that suspicious of me, I can leave, but I kinda like my job so I’d prefer not to. The benefits are insane compared to what’s standard.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Sure. yeah. How about you turn off the freaking noise generator and we can talk?”

He has given gifts to the other inmates for Christmas using the donations people sent his commissary account.

He appears to have attempted to communicate through flashing his cell lights to show his supporters outside that he could hear them cheering for him (this exact light flashing is what inmates at the previous prison did to communicate to the news that they were in support of Luigi, so he may have learned it from them and taken this form of light communication with him to MDC.)

It is rumored he is paying for the other inmates' healthcare using donations to his commissary account.

Inmates who shared time with him at the Penn prison say he 'gave them a voice' when they 'had never had one before' (in reference to the collective shouting 'Free Luigi' the inmates did.

WHO IS USING THIS

AN APP??? THEY HAVE A FUNCTIONING WEBSITE

U-Uh who wants to hear me talk about what kind of Ghost Cores the Fenton Family would have and the really fucked up reasoning behind it?

@kades-stuff @h0lderofhope @stormphantomnightingale

I'm literally holding all your hands and giggling rn.

I'M SO HAPPY YOU ASKED!

(Please understand that this is my headcanon for a fic I'm in the process of writing. This is a DP x DC crossover!! Currently, what is written in this post hasn't even been officially written but that's okay! I'll eventually get to it and I'm so happy people are interested cause it makes me WANT to continue! So if it gets confusing with the lack of context, I'm sorry! Additional disclaimer, I know nothing about the DCU! I've just been using google and my boyfriend's knowledge since he's a fan of the DCU.)

Jazz will have an electric core. Maddie, a Light core and Jack a Shadow Core. (Jack's core is still a maybe, but it'll most likely end up being this!)

Now the explanation and maybe a little bit of context.

The Fentons except for Danny has been kidnapped by Darkseid and is on his ship or some place with him and his army. Due to the eradication of Amity Park, the government, in order to hide the GIW's mistake, has hired LexCorp to be at the site to basically do some cleanup. Because the GIW was only passed due to the short presidency that Lex Luthor had, he took the task with open arms.

The GIW had presented the Fentons to Lex and because he needed them off planet (idk how to actually write this part yet!), he got into contact with Darkseid and now here they are. They are the leading researchers of Ecto-Biology and because of their appearance and their research, Darkseid believes that he might have found the missing piece for the Anti Life Equation.

Blah blah blah. Fast forward a year.

During the year they were being held hostage by Darkseid, they were inevitably mind controlled. But Jack and Maddie are built different. They've been around ectoplasm for much longer than their daughter, so they're much more liminal than Jazz. So, because of that, they were able to get out of their mind control machines.

Jack and Maddie broke out of Darkseid's mind control power, ripping the mind control machines off their heads and breaking it. They claim that they will never do his bidding and they will escape with their daughter.

But... Jazz is still mind control. She's just a kid. (She's 20-21 at this time.) Darkseid literally just goes, "Um actually, you will do my bidding."

"Or what?"

"Or this." And Darkseid just overload's Jazz's mind control machine, literally frying her brains out. Unfortunately for the parents, they never got to see their daughter be her normal self before she dies.

Maddie is devastated, going blind with rage as she tries to fight Darkseid. Jack included. Surprisingly for Darkseid, they actually pick up a good fight before more soldiers come in, prying Jack and Maddie off of Darkseid before throwing them into a jail.

Batman has been there the whole time! (haha game changer reference.)

Batman had the unfortunate pleasure of watching parents watch their children die in front of them. He wanted to do something, but something kept him back. (Idk what it is yet. A door that he literally couldn't get through or something of the sort.) But where the parents get thrown into jail, Batman is able to get to.

Batman meets up with Jack and Maddie outside of the jail doors and promises escape. (Unrelated, but Bruce vaguely recognizes Maddie but he doesn't know from where!) They try to refuse, basically giving up after the loss of their daughter. But instead, they try to ask him to find their son Danny Fenton. He's the only survivor of this kidnapping and is most likely somewhere on earth. They don't know where, but just somewhere in the USA.

"Just leave us! Tell our son that we love him."

"You can tell him that yourself." And Batman manages to break them out of jail.

And off they go.

As they go through the corridors of whatever hall they're in, Jack actually notices something before Batman could even realize what's going on. A Parademon (Or Darkseid himself) are behind the trio with a killing blow on Maddie. Jack decides in a split second to intercept the attack, thus taking the killing blow instead.

Maddie screams bloody murder and stops just to turn around to her dying husband. Darkseid just grinning over the fallen family.

Batman is screaming at Maddie to run and Maddie just shakes her head. He tries to approach her only for him to literally be hoisted up by the woman (who I headcanon to just be 5 foot nothing! It's cute!) and literally throw across the hall and through the doorway. That doorway closing on Batman. The last thing that Batman sees is Darkseid lifting up his weapon (I'm gonna say a sword idk anything) and just swing it down on Maddie. But he doesn't see what happens next.

With a failure weighing heavily in his heart, Batman goes back to his ship and escapes back to earth. He's now on a mission to fulfill the parent's promise to find and protect Danny Fenton. Only... Danny Fenton doesn't exist anymore. (Can't find a Fenton if he's a Nightingale now!)

Now, Bruce has watched the fall of the Fenton Family...

(Or so he thinks!! Bruce is currently being so distraught about the end of a family line while he's at a Startup Event and standing in front of a Danny Nightingale as the boy's explaining his Bee Creations!)

LOL! Now to the reasoning behind the cores!!

Jazz gets an Electric Core because at first, I thought it would have been funny to give her an Electric Core because Danny got electrocuted when he died. He has a weakness to electricity due to his death but due to his Ice Core, it's also a power boost. Get it? Cause you are more prone to get shocked more in the winter! Idk why but it at least happens a lot to me!

But then I got to thinking about angst and using Ember as an example, Jazz gets an Electric Core because she died due to electrocution via mind control machine.

Now Jack has a Shadow Core. Based off of this post. Jack had to be the one to throw Danny through the portal to keep him safe knowing that he will most likely never see his son again. He regretted not being able to see his son for who he truly was and even hated himself for technically being the cause of his death in the first place. Then he had to watch his daughter die a horrible death in front of him. And he couldn't do anything about it! Now, when Darkseid was about to kill Maddie too, he knew what he had to do. All those regrets and silent self hatred were easily going to be resolved if he sacrificed himself. And so he does. He dies with only sadness and regrets. Regrets that even with his sacrifice, Maddie still dies. Regrets that he never understood his son. Regrets that he chose to not understand his son. Regrets that he wasn't able to protect everyone he loved. He embraced the darkness and shadows that soon filled him, thus resulting in a Shadow Core.

Now for Maddie. It would make more sense for her to have a shadow core. She's super badass and cool and mysterious. It makes sense! But we're going to put in a bit of a backstory for her. Maddie is a true Gothamite. Born and raised in Gotham. She eventually grew old enough to join the Court of Owls as a Talon!!

...wait aren't Talons undead assassins?

Why, yes! They were!

Maddie was eight when she died and became a Talon. But, that short era was short lived when someone came by and managed to resuscitate her back to the living! But this was a while later after she had received all her training. She wanted to thank her savior but she realizes that he eventually died alongside his wife behind a theatre.

Maddie, before she died, was a bright child. Although ending up in her first death, she lived life to the fullest. Took everything in stride and made the most of everything. People once said that her smile was blinding.

As she grew up, she practically fell down a rabbit hole that is ecto-biology. You could say that was her obsession... (Eyy?? Get it?? Do you get it?? Hehehe) She grew so accustomed to the ambient ectoplasm that it actually changed her! Did you know that her hair was a darker red! And her eyes were never purple to begin with! Over the years, she sees herself with a much brighter red and her eyes turned an alluring purple! She didn't question it! Must've been the ectoplasm! Turns out, due to her having been died and resurrected, Maddie had been a halfa the whole time! You'll probably ask "Well, OP, if she's a halfa, she obviously would've known about her powers long before the events of Danny Phantom!" And I'd say you're right! But shut up! I'm working on the logistics of it so hush it! (/j/j/j/j)

Now, in the current moment, after seeing her husband die in front of her, Maddie finally snaps. Although a brilliant scientist, she is still a mother and a wife. And a scary one at that. The last thing that Batman sees is Maddie about to be swung down. But if he had a few seconds longer, her would have seen Maddie literally stop that sword with her bare hands and tossing them aside, showing her near-super strength. Up until her inevitable defeat, she fought with her whole chest, using dirty tricks and her training as being a Ex-Talon.

The last thing that she remembers is fighting to protect. She is heartbroken that she lost everyone that mattered to her and wishes that she can still protect them even in death. Even when she's dying, she's still pure of heart, still trying to show that there can still be some good even after all this sadness. Even if the good isn't for her, she hopes that this good would help her son in the future.
