Had these sitting in the back of my procreate files. I just think he’s neat!

(Killing him with rocks, killing him with rocks)

"Seriously, what do you even see in that mortal!?" Screamed an observant and Danny stopped and leveled them with a glare cold enough to freeze over an active volcano and sharp enough to cut through obsidian.

"He makes me laugh."

Unlike those dead suitors went unsaid, but everyone at the ball (read: search for a bride/groom for the royal ghostling) practically heard it anyways.

Meanwhile over in the land of the living

Okay so Jason may have messed up. Now you see, he hasn't seen his platonic husband for tax benefits in a while, and he's been very careful to not let his identity as the Red Hood slip up before . Not even once in their relationship.

(He's not counting the time his in-laws sniffed him out as a Crime Lord, because Danny never believed them.)

Now, it wasn't exactly his fault he slipped up. You try to fight off an entire group after being pulled up on out of nowhere on the phone while trying to hide said noises of fighting.

Who was he calling? Danny of course since he said he was away for business. What business? Never specified and Jason wasn't going to pry.

So now here he was, bound 'helplessly' as Jason Todd along with a few other random civilians. Which, like, rude.

Wasn't he already good enough for this ancient ritual or whatever?

You know, he really should have walked with that "Anti-kidnapping device" he got that one time. Which honestly he feels like he should be surprised that such a thing exists but considering it was from Bruce. Well.

He's not surprised.

Oh, there's the Justice League now. Shame, he wanted to knock out a few guys himself- Oh, now he's being used to summon a ghost from the Infinite Realms of Royal Lineage.

Yea he probably should have walked with that "Anti-kidnapping device."

Wait a goddamn-

Is that-

"My darling husband!" Danny shouted, scooping him off the circle and away from the head cultist and swinging him around. "You had me worried sick!"

Now, he should ask the question anyone would in this situation when finding out your best friend and platonic husband for tax benefits was apparently a ghost of royal lineage.

"Why're you in a dress?"

"Okay, first of all I rock this thing." Danny huffed.

"That you do." Jason agreed rather easily.

"Second of all, blame those guys over there." He jerked his head in the direction of two very green floating eyeball people.

Not the weirdest he's seen, honestly.

The Observants were whispering to each other and leveling them-Jason in particular-a look.

"Now as you can see, I already have a spouse and I don't need another!" Danny hugged Jason closer for emphasis and he took the time to whisper in Danny's ear. "Did you really marry me to play the husband card?"

"Well, yes." Danny agreed. "But also because of taxes, because I love you and you're my best friend."

"So, we're still done for watching that movie right."

"Obviously."

A pained grunt came from below them and they both looked down to see Batman standing over a very unconscious cultist and looking up at them.

Hm.

He forgot they were there.

"So," Jason began, staring Bruce straight in the eyes. Batman's eyes narrowed. "Don't suppose we can push that forward to right now?"

tysm anon.......waow this is a great ask....... of course you can be 🦠 anon........waow....

platonic yandere vampire but its a lonely old vampire that wants so badly to have a child in his home again because all of his human children have passed on.

and unfortunately for you, it seems like you're the perfect candidate.

you've never really questioned how many times you bumped into the man. you just assumed that the both of you just walked around the same route. and it's not like you hated seeing the man, sometimes he even brought you free lunch! he was just really sweet.

and yes, there was some part of you that questioned his intentions. and how sometimes he would treat you way younger than you were. commenting on how young someone like you were and how you shouldn't be doing such grown up things, like having a job. you've told him that you were an adult but he just laughs it off.

but, you could brush that off. it wasn't that off putting, at least not enough for you to completely avoid him.

"i miss my children. you remind me of my youngest." he suddenly brings up one day. you tilt your head. "oh? are they extremely funny like me too?" you joke and he laughs.

"yes, very very funny. they were.... everything to me."

you turn to look at him. his expression is solemn and you realize. his children have passed away. moving to place a sympathetic hand on his arm. "i'm so sorry."

his smile is sad. taking your hand in his (considerably colder) hands as he utters a small thank you. you don't know that you've just sealed your fate.

you were a gem in his eyes, a blessing sent for him to finally have a child again after so many years. after having his children fade away in front of his eyes. he wasn't going to let it slip away. he wasn't going to let you slip away.
