So what if Marinette was Danny's Twin?

What I'm saying is - Talia birthed Danny and Marinette, but she didn't want them nor did Ra's wanted them either. When Bruce came, they took the chance to basically escape and disappear. They both kept in touch, however, and both found out about each other's Hero Identities which was great.

They kept in touch, they grew up - Good Parents Fenton, and Marinette finally catches Hawkmoth - and now they both have stable jobs and are doing great.

That is, until they both end up in Gotham.

And Talia ends up seeing the both of them - who are both now effectively gods now. Well, Danny is. I dunno about Marinette though, a Demi-goddess.

And of course, the Batfamily found out about Talia being there and spots her tailing two adults. And then Damian finds out about his cooler-older-half-siblings who are established superheroes (or ex-superheroes, depending) and have stable jobs and lives.

Damian has so much cooler older siblings - and they had no idea he even existed, or that Talia had another child. Either they dote on him, or act cold until Damian makes the first move to try and clear the air.

Sam, Danny, Tucker are all roomies as they attend Gotham U (well, Danny’s taking online classes- Ghost king duties are a bitch) and it’s time for Sam to change her major.

Sam started off in Plant Bio and that was great and she loved it until (A) She realized that to do real science she couldn’t rely on her connection to the Green and that it would skew her work and that (B) Pamela was fucking loving it. Pamela was doing the polite society equivalent of screaming from the rooftops about how smart Sam was to be a STEM major at GU and it made Sam feel gross about it. So… She switches to Fashion Design.

Marinette Dupain-Cheng is a PhD student working on a new specialized fabric (It’s for hero costumes not that anyone knows it yet), and is Sam’s TA for the semester. 

After her first class, She and Mari and her kind of hit it off, like, incredibly well. Mari explains that she knows the style Sam is going after because of her love for Jagged Stone and then they bond over Humpty Dumpty. 

Eventually they’ll bond over video games (Sam admits she sucks at UMS3 but would gladly kick her ass in Doomed). They start meeting in Mari’s office hours (which no one else goes to except for in cram weeks) and getting coffee.

Then one Damian Wayne appears and -BOOM Twin AU- Why the fuck does he look just like Danny? 

Yep, despite their ongoing problems, Amity Park, Paris, and Gotham are having a short exchange program. You’d think the constant attacks would put a damper on things, but no.

Maybe it’s a tradition and none of the sides want to be the one to cancel on it. Maybe they’re just nonchalant about their city’s issues and don’t really consider it to be that big a deal. Whatever the reason is, it’s happening.

The students involved are enthusiastic about getting away from their own city’s brand of chaos, but are worried about the other schools’ students suddenly having to deal with it.
