DP X DC Prompt #71
Blob Ghost Batman.
:)
Not a happy Batman. Batblob would like arms please. Fingers. What is he meant to do like this! How does he strike fear as a soft, squoshable, ball!!! ( ̄ヘ ̄)
Blobghost Batman: Am Nite, Am Bahma!
He's too cute. Sorry lil guy. Just not scary anymore. *Gets slammed into a wall by angry Batblob*
Do you think he gets other blobs following him around like his Robin's did?
doubt there are too many. He gets told about the Ghost child. The protector of the portal, and Amity Park. And nyooms his way over. A child hero? He must help!!!!
Which, Phantom suddenly has a blob helper? Amity Phantom fans love this. They absolutely make plushies. Batblob hates them so much. This is not dignified!!
Bonus points if this is how the rest of the Batfamily and/or Justice League find out where Batman's soul ended up!
Just. Imagine.
The funeral was a month ago & no one Hero Adjacent can still quite believe that Batman (First of his Name) is dead.
Yes, he was a standard, non-meta human. Yes, he was Old. But he had always seemed so much larger than life. It just feels so Wrong.
Terry McGinnis restlessly scrolls through social media, keeping up on the latest Bat News. And he sees it.
An ad for a BatBlob plushie.
Terry snickers. Bruce would've HATED that. And clicks through to the website.
Wait... There's VIDEO. Of an actual BatBlob assisting this other hero in... Amity Park, Illinois?
Time for a road trip. This he HAS to see in person. (Ignore the flickers of hope fluttering behind the curtain. This is only to cheer up his friends.)
Batblob is going to be mortified. Someone he knows has seen him like this. but also, help the child! He needs more help than I can give him. I have no arms Terry! No arms! How am I to teach him to fight! If all I can do is slam attacks!
Terry of course is going to call the extended Batclan to visit Amity Park. So they can all see Batblob. And hear his new voice. Guys, you gotta. It's great. Also, he has adopted a new child, who needs our help. Yes, we do indeed have a new family member.
Tim and Tucker collaborate to build BatBlob a crime-fighting mech suit. They get along like a house on fire. Everyone else is appropriately terrified.
If B passed from old age. Tim is in his 50's+? And therefore even better, by miles, than he was in his teens. Tucker is dying. This is his hero! Tim Drake-Wayne. The guy who has been in coding and engineering magazines since before he was born. This man redefined tech so many times. And he's letting Tucker be his assistant?? (Ecstatic nerd sounds).
Danny is being drilled in fighting, both in and out of his human form. It's so tirong. But also fantastic.
Batblob is being teased mercilessly by his children and grandchildren. Passed around like a plushie. Damn his brats. He loves them very much. He just doesn't like them very much right now.
Taking thos thought beyond this. What if Overgrowth is Poison Ivy or Swamp Thing?
Nah, Overgrowth adopted them, giving them a measure of his powers. Making Sam their little sister. She is thrilled.
The worst part of the outrage is that he can't stop making a ghostly purr while he's being handled like a cute stuffed animal by his family!
He's really not used to so much physical affection >///<
And any member of his family who is liminal (or more) hears him… which… is most of his family -x-'
But if at least it stops there, but no certain pho finds himself sent to group discussions of heroes / exheroes
Suffice to say that some will see it like dianawonderwoman and others only pass quickly to check the situation like constantine
…
waits
Come back here Constantine! little shit! come back! come help!!! we must prevent a genocide / a dimensional war!
Diana and Clark fly right to the city in their hero outfits. They have a new hero to mentor. And an old friend to lovingly tease. This is going to change a lot obviously. This gives Phantom legitimacy. He is being mentored by the Justice League. He clearly cannot be a menace. And is in fact trying his best to help.
Batblob sees Diana and Clark and sighs. His reputation is ruined. Forever. Decades! Decades he spent! He was fear! He was vengeance! He was the NIGHT! Now he is just a cuddly toy o(TヘTo)!
I can't stop the this image...
The heroes having a sleepover and Danny, with all the glory of a ghost baby with strong ghostly instincts, cuddling Batblob into sleep.
If Diana and Clark took photos, nobody but Clocky knows...
