Nightwing sees a unattended child on a roof: That's Concerning! Imma go check that out!
3yo Danny: Oh hi, yeah I do this all the time, it's fine!
Nightwing:!?
Nightwing watches Danny scale down the side of a building into a window: I'm starting to sympathize with Bruce...I need a drink
Danny's accident happened at 3 not 14 is how I'm gonna play this. It could've happened at anytime honestly. Its a wonder he makes it to 14 in most universes.
So Danny is in Gotham with his parents as they investigate ghost signals from the Lazarus pits. The family has been living here for 6 months and none of the adults have noticed Danny is technically dead(Jazz has noticed and thinks she's an adult. But she is still a kindergarten. And she's not dumb enough to tell the ghost hunters that her little brother is a ghost)
The windows and doors get child locked and Jazz is left in charge when the parents leave for their nightly ghost hunting. Danny just walks through the wall and onto the fire escape before climbing to the roof to stargaze when Nightwing finds him.
Danny is immediately wary because he's dressed like a ghost hunter. He's got spandex and a logo! So Danny pretends to be human and immediately goes back inside to tell Jazz that there's a strange man on the roof.
Nightwing goes to enter the window Danny went into. To find its not only locked, its barred, shatter proof and electrified. And seems designed more around keeping something inside the apartment instead of things out of it(The ghosts they capture. Though they don't have much in the way of ghost proofing yet and are throwing things at the wall to see what sticks)
And under all that, not that Dock sees, is Jazz waiting with a weapon of some sort ready to bonk the strange man as soon as he enters through the window
She has a creep stick as first option. Its a full sized one and going straight for the strange man's shins! If that doesn't work she has one of the guns Jack never locks up properly. Though her aim is to hopefully avoid murder
Exactly,
Tho part of me feels now that she’s planning an interrogation
Which
Is hilarious considering she’s a kindergartner
Just imagine a serious little toy trying to question a grown adult vigilante , tho she might not know Dicks a vigilante, on why he was trying to sneak in after a child
Ignoring that she is also a child
I want this to be heard through coms cause it would be sooo funny
Also the bats will prob also be concerned that two tots were left along like this in Gotham
Especially when they hear about the drs Fenton
In one room Nightwing is tied up in a pink sparkly jump rope and shoved into a one of Danny's old playpens(The Fenton's just repurposed one of their discarded ghost cages for it) being interrogated by a 5yo in pig tails with a big stick on why Dick was going after 'Her baby'(The apartment defenses took Dick out after a single swing to the shins.)
In the other room Batman has already intercepted a 911 call by Danny calling about a bad man breaking into their apartment. With the 911 operator trying to get details from the 3yo or to give to phone to his babysitter Jazzy/Sissy. Danny keeps insisting Jazz was too busy handling the bad man to talk. Jason Todd is closest to the scene
I kinda want either Danny to panic and shoot a blast at Jason, he’s three give him a break they don’t tend to have the best reasoning skills, or Jazz to sense a disturbance and come swinging and take Jason out
The bats will need to learn that they need a different approach in order to be let in without violence
I vote Cass is the one that manages to enter safely
It just feels like she’d be the one to figure out that these are two scared tots and proceed to calm them down enough to allow her inside to see her brothers
Which is when the drs Fenton arrive
Shooting first and immediately hitting both jazz and Danny and not realizing
To which bats react cause danger hurt tots
Which immediately makes Danny panic cause mom and dad are in trouble and he is overwhelmed
Which has jazz on alert cause she needs to calm Danny both cause she’s a good big sis, she sees herself as Danny’s caretaker, and if Danny’s emotions get too big his powers will start misfiring which she does not need happening with her parents right there
Danny on the phone with 911: Ahhh!
Danny blasts Jason and a loud gunshot like sound can be heard on the call
Danny back on the phone to the 911 operator: There was another bad man breaking in. Don't worry I got him. He got banged
911 operator, getting close to a heart attack: Okay Danny... Please put down the gun carefully... Are you and your sister okay?
Jazz's voice can be heard as she comes over talking to Danny. She sounds the same age as Danny does
Danny: Sorry Ms 911. Gotta help Sissy tie knots and move bad man. Call you back *hangs up*
Oh my stars the poor operator!!!
They are going to be so stressed over these tots
Whelp drs Fenton are def going to get in trouble
I mean
Police think they left two tots alone with a loaded gun and they are technically not wrong since there are surely tons of ghost weapons lying within the tots reach
We know this cause that was Jazz’s backup plan
Speaking of jazz, she seems to be Offaly calm atm, prob cause she’s more focused on protecting Danny
Or she’s just that used to situations like this already
Neither of which are good
She’s probably going to need a big hug once this is all over
Not to mention once Cas gets there and assesses the situation she will find all the doors and windows are locked, barred and electrified in a way that would prevent the kids from escaping in an emergency, Multiple cages(meant for ghosts) the one Dick is tied up inside of is decorated like a toddler play pen. The weapons just scattered about that Jack didn't clean up, the experiment that caused Danny's accident(A smaller portal in this case) also within toddler touch zone with exposed wires. And possibly chemistry kits that aren't properly secured. Plus the fridge for food and the fridge for lab samples are the same fridge.
Danny and Jazz see no problem with all this and are instead trying to get Ms Bat to help with the bad men who broke in.
Yeah if no one else takes in the tots cass will
She’s imprinted on them, there hers now
She’s not letting them stay in this environment anymore and she’s probably doing everything in her power to not let these thoughts and emotions show through, lest she scare the tots
She just has to show them that the other two aren’t bad just dumb, then they can help her help the little ones
Also I kinda want to know what’s going through dicks head atm
He saw a tot on the roof, followed him inside to make sure he was ok, got attacked in the shins by another tot, tied up in a cage turned toddler pen and interrogated by said five year old, only to hear a scream then gunshot in the next room
He’s going to be more than a lil freaked out and worried until Cass gives the all clear
Also how’s Jason doing, did Danny’s blast knock him out, I kinda want him to wake up tied similarly to dick
Tho he wouldn’t be in one of the other cages since neither tot think he deserves to possibly get shocked (let’s be real all the cages prob have electric currents, Danny’s is prob the exception and I wouldn’t be surprised if part of…
Wait
I just had a horrible thought
What if Danny’s accident occurred in his playpen cause it was left electrified and right next to the portal or something
What if
What if the only reason why Danny’s pen doesn’t have an electric current running anymore is cause it got fried during Danny’s accident and neither parent noticed that it had a current to begin with
And by that I mean what if they were so careless when repurposing the cage that they forgot to turn of the current, left it by the portal, and placed Danny inside, giving him a mild shock, and left
After which Danny panics and tries to escape the pen, topples over onto the portal, portal ignites, and bam accident
All while jazz is panicking trying to help Danny but unable to get help due to the doors and windows being barred, and forced to watch the accident occur without being able to help
For all this to occur tho I’d imagine that the pen no longer has a roof or floor, so as to explain how he didn’t get shocked when the drs Fenton put him in and only started panicking when he bumped the wall while talking to jazz
Or what if they left the portal IN the pen where Danny gets hurt and jazz can’t help cause she gets shocked from the outside and unable to enter and help him
Either way I fear she witnessed the accident and most definitely blames herself for Danny’s ghostlyness
Which prob makes her go even harder in trying to take care of Danny and keep him safe
Jazz is also extremely used to protecting Danny from their parent's failed experiments. There are flashbacks scenes in the Christmas special where Danny had to be saved by Jazz on his second christmas from a necromanced turkey dinner. So she has unfortunately already decided that physical protection is her job by this point.
I'm thinking the playpen is banged up and the ceiling is gone. But its turned upside down which is why Jazz was able to use it as a cage for Dick.
Danny only got out of the portal and stopped being shocked/radiated when his powers manifested enough he was able to fly out. So it took a lot longer here than in canon for the accident to stop.
Jazz and Danny would drag Jason into the same room as the cage. They wouldn't have anyone cage to safely put him in so instead they try to barricade him in with furniture. Danny has super strength(relative for toddler) so Jason just wakes up tied to a pole by the jump rope and surrounded by chairs from the kitchen table. With Dick visible in the playpen/cage a few feet away.
Cas comes in the room shortly after Jason wakes up with a kid on each hip
She’d probably be chuckling if the situation wasnt so dire, she’s still gonna make fun of them later tho,
I wonder how she’ll convince the tots that her brothers mean no harm?
I also can’t shake the feeling that once this little drama is settled and both boys are released that the Drs Fenton will burst in with there usual shoot first method
Which would be perfect timing for Batman to arrive and sees these two mad scientists pointing weapons and his children and a couple of tots
Heh that won’t end well
Tho I feel that jazz will just be so done with this entire situation and I would not blame her if she proceeded to just scream her head off to get everyone to stop the chaos
Which might accidentally startle Danny enough that he briefly goes invisible
Which the bats would immediately clock tho Im unsure if the parent Fenton would
Let’s just say that this whole night will probably devolve into chaos
The 911 operator was working as hard as she could and so were her colleagues. They managed to track down the resident's cellphone numbers that the home phone was connected to. They called trying to get help getting to the kids. The cops tried to get in already but Fenton Security won.
Jack and Maddie just hear that someone broke into their apartment with their toddlers and hang up. Going running towards the apartment screaming about saving the kids from the 'blasted ghosts'.
Which is why they burst in when they do guns blazing.
Maddie "Put down my children you wretched ghost! I will dissect you molecule by molecule if you so much as hurt a single hair on their precious heads!
Jack: What she said!
Batman bursts through the window that Nightwing broke into and sees the Dr. Fentons holding up strange looking guns towards his children and their own.
Which is promptly when the police enter, some having been bowled over by the drs Fenton in their rush to eliminate the ghosts,
How much you wanna bet that the police see the drs Fenton shoot strange weapons at the bats and kids
Something tells me that no matter how corrupt said officers are, they wouldn’t tolerate this
Which would probably have the doctors Fenton going on a rant about how the bats were clearly evil ghosts there to kidnap their children and that if the police got in their way it was because they were being possessed by the sinister specters
The 911 operator gets a check from The Wayne Foundation to help with the emotional distress. Its enough she could retire if she wants to.
The Dr. Fentons are found to be too delusional to be held responsible because of their ghost rants. So end up doing a stint in Arkham(They quickly escape and flee back to Amity to plan their next move on how to get their kids back from the ghosts who stole them).
Now the only things the Bats have to figure out is who is taking in the tots and put the pieces together on how tf this was even able to happen and why no police officers interfered with what seems to be child experiments happening in just a normal apartment building.
So drs Fenton are now Batman rogues lol, and maybe Vlad too depending on if he figures out Danny’s a halfa like him
Poor life’s now have to deal with their parents being rogues oof
I wonder how long it will take the bats to realize Danny has powers, if they hadn’t already . I say Cass and/or Alfred are the ones who find oh first since it seems right
The tots are going to be so doted on and be so confused about it lol especially jazz since she’s used to being the one to look after Danny she’s going to probably get frustrated at times now that she’s suddenly being “babied”, treated how a kindergartner should
Is Damian around? If so I want him to take to being a big brother/uncle super well, tho I feel like he may try to teach the tots how to use weapons cause that was both normal for him and they desire to learn lol
I mean the tots are used to being around weapons, jazz wants to be able to better protect Danny, and swords and knives are cool lol
Maybe Damian is the first to find out and keeps the secret seriously and helps Danny control his powers
I just imagine part of the reason Damian becomes attached super quickly is cause the tots remind him of small animals so he isn’t as annoyed with them as he is the usual tot
I also wonder what other ghostly shenanigans occur since Danny does not have the luck for anything else lol
Do the tots figure out the bats identities or are they told, and how long does either take to occur I wonder
Can Danny already have picked up the habit of taking apart tech to see how it works, I know he’s three but I find it kinda hilarious and want him to do it anyway. Especially since if would give the bats heart attacks
Danny instantly figures out the bats identities when he's brought into Wayne Manor. And I feel like Jason was the first to find out about the powers, followed shortly by Batman and everyone else. Since Danny shot him with an ectoblast and his helmet would've recorded everything. Though they wouldn't know the full extent of his powers by a longshot for a while. Especially because he's even more powerful in this au. Since he spent longer being infused with power inside the portal.
Danny apologizes to Dick and Jason shortly after arriving in the manor. They don't know for what and Danny's explanation of "Because Bang" doesn't clear anything up for them until later when they're going over the 911 call for the case.
Damian loves his new siblings. They're basically feral little kittens in his eyes. The batfam finally have to compromise of letting Damian teach them with practice wooden swords under strict supervision and some foam swords to play with outside of lessons.
And ghostly shenanigans do occur. Imagine if Pirah invaded Gotham instead of Amity when Danny is 6-7. And the batfam don't realize how it ended until Constantine shows up for a case one day and sees Danny for the first time since he won the right to be the ghost king. The crown and ring only visible to those who can see ghosts and the supernatural(Jazz knew)
Danny does start stealing bat tech from the batcave for him and Jazz to work on together. Jazz isn't as much a fan of this type of work but she knows caretakers are supposed to take interest in what their kids like so she participates.
Yes yes yes yes yes
Oh the heart attacks the bats will have upon learning that Danny took out Pariah oh my stars that’s perfect
I want Danny to be sneaky with the tech he steals and modifies, to the point that the bats start finding new tech in the cave without knowing where it comes from but it’s suspiciously convenient lol
Poor Jazz, someone needs to help her learn that she can just be a kid and doesn’t have to be Danny’s caretaker anymore
But also, Im here for the chaos of when she gets into psychology . No one will be safe from her then lol
Have the tots befriended any of the former rogues, I can see them both loving Harley and maybe even beg to hang out with her on occasion
Oh if drs Fenton try anything when the tots are with Harley or another rogue thru are going to lose lol
Speaking of, Im curious how the situation with the drs Fenton devolves, what levels are they willing to stoop too and I wonder if they ever figure out Danny’s abilities. If they do they’ll just assume it’s those evil ghosts fault or something
Do any of Danny’s other rogues appear, also does joker venom and fear toxin affect Danny differently or does he suffer like normal
Is Jazz liminal too, I mean while she wasn’t directly in the portal when it opened she was still in the room and she had been around ectoplasm for even longer so she’s probably at least a lil liminal now
What happened to the portal that Danny had his accident in, is it still active/open or is it like the portal from vlads accident and no longer functioning
What types of pranks does Danny pull on the bats once he’s a bit more comfortable around them cause he will pull pranks
Not on Alfred tho cause he may be small but he isn’t dumb
Does Alfred utilize Danny in order to Rick the others into taking better care of themselves, or maybe even sicks jazz on them
They wouldn’t want to disappoint her would they
