Oh this one has been stuck in WIP hell since… very late August I’d say. Honestly fuck it I’ll post the entire thing because It’s not gonna be posted otherwise:

Why do we keep making Danny Phantom meet Batman? You know what I think would be far superior?

Dick Grayson.

I’ve said before in previous dp x dc stuff that Danny Fenton would absolutely become a cop because of the mentality that “these people have greatly wronged and mistreated me in the past so I’m gonna be the best goddamn version of them so what happened to me won’t happen to others ever again.” Also his obsession to protect would work amazingly with working as some form of law enforcement.

Dick Grayson is a cop in Blüdhaven. Blüdhaven is Gothams sister city and repeatedly described as “Gotham but worse.” Corrupt police, gang violence, crime in general in this city is rampant.

Dick Grayson meets this new kid, Danny, who is under his supervision for a while since Dick is a senior officer and is assigned to show him the ropes. During this time he learns that Danny is one of the few uncorrupt officers on the force. He repeatedly chats with the kid and admires his want to do good and to help people in any way that he can.

A few weeks after first meeting Danny, Nightwing is swinging around Blüdhaven and heading towards a robbery that was reported a few blocks away. A glowing blur of white and green streaks past him. Nightwing arrives at the location where the robbery took place and already sees the criminals cuffed to each other on the sidewalk with strange glowing ice binding their hands together.

This happens dozens of more times. An entire drug cartel, countless robberies, a full underground trafficking ring. All dismantled by whoever this strange blur is. Their signature ice holding the criminals captive so they could be taken away by law enforcement.

… and that’s where the WIP ends. The goal was to make Danny eventually meet Nightwing and to elaborate on a potential “partners in crime” dynamic in both civilian and superhero identities and the similarities and differences it would have.

Also how Nightwing finds out Danny from getting super injured in a simple illegal gun trade bust gone horribly wrong and Danny depowers and Nightwing just stares at his partner he’s worked with at the station and become very close friends with bleeding out in his arms.

It’s all Very sad and angsty but when Danny wakes up in Dick’s apartment, they have a very deep discussion about what lead them to become superhero’s and how they’ll now have each others backs till the very end.

rjdjd HHAA okay so-

ive always thought that people going to gotham for field trip fics was just??? so dumb and silly. love how certain ppl can execute that in fics but the thought of ppl going to Crime Town USA for enrichment is hilarious to me.

then i started thinking 'huh, i bet amity parkers would be that crazy' and did some more thinking. i started cobbling together different aus that have been floating around the phandom until i got this monstrosity: the guardian spirit field trip au (those posts are just some stepping points for those who don't know. its one of my fave aus)

the casper high field trips had steadily been to more and more dangerous places (or at least activities that most people would be too scared to do bc of the high chance of death). the final straw was when students asked if they could go to gotham and the staff didn't see anything wrong with it. after all, why worry when phantom was just a prayer away?

the effects of phantoms protection has left a lot of amity citizens a bit more blasé abt these things but they care. they leave letters from their travels and gifts for phantom. they're still new to having someone be able to save them if they needed it

danny on the other hand has slowly been getting a bit more unstable. he's a bit too keyed into his obsession right now and needs help managing it. when he hears about the trip to gotham, he's actually relieved.

'batman is a guardian spirit too,' he thinks to himself with a relieved sigh, 'batman will know how to handle this, the paranoia'

TOO BAD BATMAN IS JUST SOME GUY HAHAHA (that's mean of me sorry)

anyways, danny is one of the people who is out here advocating to staff how educational and safe the trip to gotham will be. he's fighting tooth and nail to get the trip approved. it's true that he could fly to gotham and just ask, but getting an alibi and a place to rest while there would take a huge load off of his shoulders.

when the trip is finally approved, danny (and a lot of other people) are ecstatic. that is, until the conditions.

no reanimating your lunch with street ectoplasm ("we're serious about this, the next person to do so gets suspended")

no going anywhere without your phantom necklaces

no students with grades less than a C average for the past grading period

danny is devastated. his grades had been on the rise but with the added sensory hell that is being able to tell when the people you protect get hurt, he hasn't been studying as well as he could.

as the rest of casper high's students heads out to gotham, arms loaded high with phantom merchandise and promises to send back gifts for their resident hero. danny can only watch as he realizes he sent his people into gotham alone.

gotham on the other hand, are not ready for the almost cult like mentality of amity parkers teen population. gothamites think phantom is just some hero who got a really big head. and an entire school group heading to *gotham* of a places for a fun weekend getaway? they don't know what's in the water up in amity but it sounds like it's going to get someone killed.

also answering this other ask here @ignotussomnium

From this Wip Challenge!

This was actually one of those BatPham server chaotic riffing moments that I said "okay ill make something short and quick" and then it didn't stay simple, as usual.

Basically is a VERY self indulgent Dead Serious fic where Danny is touch starved (hence the name) and Damian makes it his mission to cure this ailment, and maybe they fall in love in the process.

Absolutely treat! 🥰🥰

So glad you're liking it so far! Thank you so much for all the nice compliments!

As for your questions, I'm sorry you're having trouble with the text! Unfortunately, it looks like RPG Maker VX Ace doesn't have any functionality to enable fullscreen by default. However, since someone else also mentioned having trouble reading the text, I will probably up the contrast of the text boxes in a future patch and/or look into a plugin that allows fullscreen mode.

In Ectober I wrote a fic where Johnny and Kitty had to explain ghost stuff to Danny. This is basically an expansion and rewrite of that idea. The plan (lol) is that eventually I'll write a bunch of connected one-shots in this universe where they teach Danny all the different ghost customs and instincts he should know.

For me, so long as at least a couple of things are reblogged here and there, I’m fine with it.
