Danny* keeps up a balance of serious tone and humor that keeps a variety of people around. He reminds people at the beginning and end of every video that in an emergency most victims and non-medical will forget all of what he shows and that it’s okay. Medical personnel outside of the situation are the ones responsible for learning and remembering what he talks about.

*(does he use his actual name, his online username, or something else?)

What truly gets him attention, happens during a video a year into the channel’s first video. Just a few minutes in, a girl that looks like a slightly younger version of Danny comes running in excited and then panics. She clearly doesn’t know he’s just demonstrating which makes him have to stop and calm her. Most of the situation is cut out, but after Danny moves on a viewer notices the girl’s voice behind camera calling him “mom”

For Dani, also Ellie, it started as a joke. Soon enough after the reveal to Jazz though, she has the two sit down for a talk about their situation. She makes it clear, gently, how important it is for themselves and the rest of the family to have their feelings out in the open. In a(n at the time) rare moment of seriousness for them both, they actually talk. Danny has always wanted to be a mother, but was afraid of judgement for it as he’s transmasc. Ellie genuinely thinks of him as her mother and really wants to have a mom. She can’t help feeling like Vlad is her father, but she recognizes he’s a bad one. Danny’s been infinitely better so far even when he made mistakes. So, they stick with it. The only noticeable change is their level of affection.

Now, Danny has been blatant about being trans even in public, so it’s honestly unsurprising people start to question the mystery girl’s origins; after the rapid spreading of her address of him, specifically. Surprisingly, the only thing he addresses is that he, his family, and friends deserve privacy. No words to clarify anything beyond a boundary. The discussions of “MG” and Danny’s relationship don’t stop, though they become less prevalent on the platforms he’s active on.

DC crossover below

House Targaryen - Fourth Generation (Jaehaerys&Alysanne's children)

“Well, what if I fall asleep before I’m done?”  

Aurora smiled at him, sitting on the edge of his bed and smoothing down his car patterned bedspread.

“The angels will finish it for you, love.”

Ten years later he’s drinking himself blind, the Sacred Mysteries of Ronan Lynch’s shattered life, spilling out of him like blood. 

Duke shows up at a time when Damian Wayne is beginning his journey of accepting the culture and people he’s now surrounded by. He’s not a pushover, but he also understands this guy hasn’t been dealt a pleasant hand. The two bond over Shadow’s respect for Signal’s work thus far and Duke’s respect towards Damian as any other person with lots going on. They build up and push each other to fulfill their potential.

Cass is not encountered intentionally. Damian never stopped maintaining his skills from the League so he stumbles upon her hiding in the same shadows. She’s incredibly skilled, but also a child. There’s so much she still doesn’t know and that limits what she’s capable of. Just like with Duke, Shadow sees potential and plans to help her flourish. He knows she may not want to be a vigilante, but asking her to stop doing things she’s known since birth? He won’t allow Bruce to take that away. Cassandra is given the choice to continue training and later on is given the choice of continuing life as only a civilian or joining them at night. She’s a daddy’s girl with spite flowing through her veins and so Batgirl is born.

Spoiler jumps into their lives with a bang. She wants and she gets. She becomes Cass’ first friend and another more grounded sibling for Duke to relate to. Shadow finds her endlessly annoying, but does try not to let loose all of the vitriol he thinks of. She grows on him like a tumor and he’ll never let her forget how it’s only due to psychology he likes her the slightest bit. On top of holding his tongue, he does let it loose sometimes. Damian doesn’t truly want to hurt Steph, so he occasionally allows her to hear when her actions are well done. They don’t spend much time together outside of some family gatherings and vigilantism.

Tim only joins the fray because he slipped up. He’s good, a prodigy, but also young. One mistake and suddenly Umbra has his own Shadow. He still works with Batman often, as all the others have, but Damian sees him for who he is and can be. Tim refuses to be looked down on. The eldest understands and does his best to honor that whilst keeping the boy safe. They easily become the closest because Shadow is constantly calling Batman out on his bullshit- out of uniform, too -which Umbra has seen little results in previously. For whatever reason, Tim and Bruce are on a very similar wavelength and just click. He responds to the kid in a way he never has with the others. Alfred jokingly calls him the favorite child and the others quickly include him in their prank wars as retribution.

Jason was simultaneously an unpleasant surprise and a delight. The kid is rough around the edges but also incredibly sweet. Bruce is enamored. Being older, the man takes breaks more frequently for his health and that means more time spent with his new son. It takes longer to adopt him than the others, but only due to his own feelings about it. Alfred is grateful for a brief reprieve in crime-fighting for his grandchildren, but it doesn’t take long before he becomes fascinated. Jason’s siblings help train him, but he doesn’t go out on the streets for a long time. School is important to him and he isn’t very fixated on keeping Gotham safe with violence. Most his focus is on efforts to restore Crime Alley with charities and events. Training is just family bonding.

“And of my love do you know more?” Merida *give look of determination*

“Let the devil’s horn play. Your love is of no acquaintance to mine. Mother and daughter, be Mother and daughter. I can live without mine if so means I be with m’ future wife.” Merida *stands in front her fiancée protectively (for no reason tbh)*

“Oh, Merida. Might my love be still as a lake or raging as the sea when you first born. Now ye’ve grown to have yer own love and its as strong as those Fire Falls. I......cannot give my blessing. However, I will give you my love, for it is mine that sees no end when I am with my daughter’s happiness” Elenor *looks at her with strong emotions* *looks to the ground then raises head in decision* *has a small smile*

“Thank you mother.” Merida *hugs her mother with a sigh*
