nightblackowlbat: "Watchtower technician Danny had his portal accident when he went to visit his parents for the holidays. [...] Now if he could only keep his new powers under control so the heroes he works with don’t investigate and arrest his parents, that would be great."
32 year old Doctor Daniel Fenton is a mechanic repair man for the Justice League. It may not be the astronaut job he dreamed of in his childhood, but he gets to work amongst the stars and do his part in helping save the world (even if it's just by supporting the heroes who do all the heavy lifting). After his parents kill him in their boarderline supervillain evil scientist lab, Danny has to keep various ghostly changes under wraps and maybe even kind of sorta save the world? But he's just a mechanic and his only job is to help the heroes who do all the world saving and he is not one of those heroes.
