Have a spirit halloween ship plot idea because my sisters made me read a hades & persephone retelling, and I just got back into hadestown after hearing about it coming to theaters.
Bruce was stuck in the past. He had been gradually getting his memories back, but the only thing they changed was his desperation to get back to his time. Back to his kids. He had tried to leave clues to help his team and family find him, but he had no way of knowing if they were being found.
Every time he shifted to a new time, he saw a blinding abyss of green for a moment. When he felt the shift come again, he expected the same. Instead, he found himself in a room full of gears and mirrors. Standing facing a mirror was a man. Bruce couldn't see his face.
"Bruce Wayne, Batman, The Dark Knight. You've been altering time." Bruce could feel in his bones that this being was more than he had ever met before. As the being turned to face him, he felt himself freeze in place. "That illegal. Especially if you don't have an ancient backing you like those Flashes of yours do."
Bruce couldn't open his mouth. He couldn’t move under that gaze. "But I do know you didn’t end up in the time stream voluntarily, so I am willing to be lenient. Maybe even help you, for a price."
"What would you need?" was what he finally forced out.
"Let me explain your first option first, Prince of Gotham." Bruce caught the use of another title. One spoken like it held weight. "If I don't interfere your current plan will work. You will make it home, but there will be a cost. Come look." The still unnamed being gestured him over to the mirror.
He saw his children. Fighting. Over the cowl. Over his death. He saw his family splinter. Tim on his own. Working with Ra's. Ra's orchestrating his son's death. Then blurred images. Some of Tim getting away and beating Ra's. Of him returning home to his family. Far more of his son dead. Alone. His brothers finding out and the fighting become more fearce. More deaths. Returning to nothing.
Bruce tore his eyes from the mirror with a cutoff sob at yet another son's corpse. He turned to the being in the room with him. "I cannot garentee how the time line will go. Only that you will return home."
"Or?" He forced himself to ask.
"You help me with a situation. There are concerns for the future stability of the realms. This place we are in. The place between places. Time between times. The place where all journies end and all souls rest." The being began. "As the Ancient of Time those concerns are my responsibility. The current King fully inherited his title fourteen years ago, though he earned it seven years before that. The denizens of infinity are concerned of him making the same mistakes as his predecessor and loosing his balance." The being, the Ancient of Time, paused.
Bruce narrowed his eyes. "Where do I come in."
"You would garentee his balance. Be his balance." The Ancient stated.
"What, like an advisor?" Bruce felt uneasy.
"In part. But there is more." He handed Bruce a scroll. Bruce unfurled it and felt as if the floor dropped from under him.
Betrothal and Marriage Contract for His Royal Magesty High King Phantom and His Highness Sir Bruce Wayne of Gotham.
Basically Bruce is Persephone splitting his time between the zone and his world to save his family. Danny is aware of the potential betrothal and trusts Clockwork to make the best decision for the future of the realm. I'm picturing Danny at about 35 and Bruce at 45ish. Gotham is a place in the realms and the Bats were adopted by the city spirit so he is an actual prince in the realms.
