Fixations always changing lol

Phantoms hasn’t really been a member of the League for all that long. But despite being recruited less than a year after his debut in the modern era and having been a member for even less time the amount he’s accomplished is almost staggering. A heavy hitter that can keep up with Superman, master of technology, stealth and infiltration expert, healer, nearly immune to magic and capable of ripping through even the strongest of spells and more. With thousands of years worth of combat experience to boot. The full hazmat thing he’s got going on is kind of unsettling at first but anyone who’s spent more than 30 seconds in his presence will tell you that his power is easily rivaled, or even outshone, by his kindness. The thought and effort he puts into minimizing collateral, the care and gentleness he shows every civilian he saves, the compassion and forgiveness he offers every villain, there’s (nearly) nothing bad anyone can say about him.

Nearly.

There is one thing. Just one tiny problem. He’s sexist.

He at least try’s to keep it to himself and hide it, but he’s really bad at hiding it. Avoids all the female hero’s like the plague, comes up with excuse after excuse to avoid working with them, trades monitor duty shifts(even taking on extra ones) to avoid being in the same room as them, damn near refuses to do training exercises with them, comes up alternative plans in the field that just so happen to not involve him having to fight along side them. And when he does he can’t seem to make up his mind on whether or not he wants to ignore their existence or act like they’re made of glass and need to be rescued every other second. Seems damn near insulted any time a woman has the gall to help him out in a fight. It’s really starting to get in the way in the field, which means it’s time to sit him down in a meeting and make him figure it out.

So. Danny’s “never be in the same room as a responsible adult” plan has Not been working as well as he’d hoped recently. Primarily because he joined the Justice League. Genuinely kind + competent + emotionally intelligent + responsible == a pain in Danny’s neck. He did a grand total of 1(one)(singular) monitor duty shift with Black Canary and now any time he’s even slightly emotionally overwhelmed or stressed his Core screams at him to go talk to her, he can’t fight around any of the female hero’s without his Core going “oh no, Danger! Hide behind Mom!” and he can’t ignore it without outright ignoring them or overcorrecting and not letting them fight at all. Wonder Woman saved him one time, just one, and he still can’t be in the same room as her without getting drowsy because his Cores losing it’s shit over finally having someone he knows will keep him safe while he rests. He’s not even bonded with any of them and it’s driving him nuts.

If he does wind up bonding with one of them? If Black Canary gains the ability to feel if he gets a panic attack, wakes up screaming or just needs to talk? If Wonder Woman can just know that he’s injured or in danger? He’ll never half-live it down. Unacceptable. Nuh uh. No. He Will Not let his Core bond with Anyone. Unfortunately he’s got a meeting coming up with literally every female member of the League, and (hopefully) a few of the male members that he’s already skipped twice but they’re still insisting he needs to go to. Hopefully it’s just quick and easy and he’ll be able to get out dodge before Hawkwoman starts asking if he needs any help vanquishing his enemy’s again.

I initially imagined this prompt with a FullHazmat and NoOneKnows AU so that the league thinks he’s a grown ass man/several thousand year old guardian spirit who’s “from a different time” but really anything works.
