Danny is a Fucking Menace.
DPXDC Prompt
Just had a funny idea about Danny finding out about some of the complicated stuff between the Joker and The Bat Children (Jason dying to the Joker/Tim being Joker Jr./Dick and Barbara getting shot, Which ever one you want to choose etc.) due to being friend with all of the children, being on a mission with them Danny just decides to ask Batman how long him and the joker being lovers in a very pissed off way (maybe b-man decided to “save” the joker again and Danny fucking snaps off) and even giving “evidence” but he’s so far from right but everyone’s that isn’t Batman is just like “omg???” “Why does this sound so right but wrong??” Jason in the background like “I couldn’t kill the bastard but you can fuck him????”
I just imagine Bruce just walking away and going home mid crime scene. Just done with everything.
If anyone wants to write it as a story or anything tag me I need a laugh.
"I get it, really I do, B-Man." Phantom said, floating circles around the cloaked hero. The stake-out was lasting forever, and while Danny had planned to hold off on revealing that he knew, a bit of drama made patrols go so much faster. "I've dated one of my own rogues before. But that is not healthy in the long run. I have no clue how you think you and Mr. Smiley are going to work out." "What." The rest of the bats froze at Phantom's comment, the mics going silent, save for the faint click of one of them switching channels to listen in. "Yeah, like, sure she and I brawled, but like. This guy? Eesh." Phantom grimaced, "Theres sparring with your partner's fraid, and then theres just... well... Anyway, Joker isn't even skirting that line, he jumped into the 'red flag' territory years ago." Oh if a man could buffer, Batman would have crashed. "Straight up - just hearing about the stuff he did is setting off my 'protector' alarm." Phantom said with a sigh, lazily floating on his back, "Especially if he actually did take out the second Robin - I'm honestly surprised the entire fraid didn't just hunt him down." "THANK YOU!" Came a practically ecstatic reply from the coms, loud enough that Phantom could hear it through Batman's earpiece, let alone through his own. Which one was that - Hood. He could hear the voice filter trying to keep up with the sheer volume of the statement. "You are very welcome!" Phantom replied chipperly. "If you need me to do it, I will! Consider it a repayment of protection, given Hood has been so nice as to let me crash in his haunt the last few months. I entirely understand if being the one to handle it is off the table for you - given your relationship." "Is THAT why you wouldn't let me kill him, B?!" - Nightwing. Danny was still working on identifying some of the less regular players. "I- what." "I think you broke him, Phantom." - Red Robin. "The offer is on the table!" Phantom said with a shrug, "And like, given how many times he has skirted death- probably will come back as a ghost. But like - then he would be a me issue, and not a Gotham issue." Danny had put serious thought into it. If he took out Joker, then 1) makes Lady Gotham extremely happy, which is a major bonus for the bats, let alone Phantom himself, 2) gets Hood's soul some feeling of satisfaction, could help with his anger problems, and 3) would help to settle all the wayward souls in the city that he killed.
Of course, when Joker ended up in the realms, then he would have to go Ghost King on him, but Fright Knight has been wanting someone new to practice on, and eh- what's one more ghost that hates his guts?
Given the blank stare that Batman had right now, it only solidified Danny's conviction. "I know a good therapist that knows ghost law if it helps you process it."
