Batman: ....

Green Lantern: What? Why? No offense, Batman, but he's not the social type, especially for something this delicate.

Wonder Woman: We figured it be best if two supernatural beings discuss. To find common ground.

Flash: Ohhhh, that makes sense.

Aquaman: It is a wise tactic.

Green Arrow: *nodding* Two scary otherworldly beings would be best. At the very least Bats wont be intimidated by the Ghost King.

Martian Manhunter: Does this mean we send in Batman alone?

Superman: Thats the plan.

Batman mentally: What the fuck. What the fuck. What the fuck. I'm so fucked. Why are they doing this to me? I don't even have powers!

Batman out loud: I will complete this mission.

Jazz: I-

Danny: Don't do it, Jazz! He's a liar. A pretty lair, but a lair nonetheless!

Jazz: You can tell his pretty? With everything covering his face?

Danny: He gives the vibe of a man who has gone through life flying on pretty privilege.

Jazz studying Batman: Yeah, I see what you mean.

Batman: ....Do you want to be rescued or not?

Danny: Not!

Batman: I apologize, I made that sound like you had a choice. I'm saving your lives.

Danny: The the HELL you are!

Jazz: Actually, I would like to get out of the cage the weird clown threw us in.

Danny through clentch teeth: Fine. Save us. But only because Jazz vouched for you.

Batman: Why are you so angry child?

Jazz: He doesn't trust pretty people. They bullied him through middle school and high school.

Red Robin: Wow, he must not trust himself then. After all, he's the prettiest boy I've ever seen~♡

Danny: *Barks and growls at him*

Jazz: Danny!

Danny: That one reeks of pretty privilege. He can not be trusted.

Red Robin: Jokes on you, I'm into this.

Tim: Yes?

Danny: Is this the location for the casting audition of My Brother's Wedding?

Tim, who was left alone in a newly purchased Wayne Studio and bored: Yes. Yes, it is. Why don't you take a seat in the lobby, and I'll call you in when I'm ready.

Danny: Oh okay.

Tim: It will just be a minute.

Danny: Alright.

Tim is speed-reading the script: Trash. Horrible. The main character is in love with his brother's bride and tries to steal her the entire wedding planning up to the actual wedding. Blah. At least the Best Man knows what he's planning and stops his plans every time- Oh! Plot twist: He ends up with the best man!?? Nice.

Tim opening the door: You can come in.

Danny: Is there a reason why the building is dark like this?

Tim: We forgot to pay the electricity bill. Now, can I have your name and the role you're auditioning for?

Danny: I'm Danny Fenton. I'm interested in Eric. I'll be doing scene seven.

Tim: The Best Man. Good choice. You may begin.

Danny: "You think I didn't notice?! The way you look at her.... She's going to marry your brother!"

Tim: Stop. I've seen enough.

Danny: Oh- I-

Tim: You got the part.

Danny: Really!? Oh my gosh thank you!

Tim: You're welcome. I'll send you details for the script reading and filming. The email on your resume good?

Danny: Yes! Yes, it's good. I'll be waiting. Thank you!

Tim: of course. Okay take care. Bye-bye now. *watches Danny leave then yanks out his phone* Hey Bruce can you buy me a moive? I lied about being someone on staff of My Brother's Wedding and I sort of promised the second lead to some random guy.

Bruce: Why? There was literally no reason for you to do that.

Tim: I have severe mental problems.

Bruce sighs: Alright. I'll pull some strings and get you that moive.

Tim: I knew you loved me the most.

Danny: The one with the glasses?

Bruce: Yes. His name is Clark Kent. He can be trusted.

Danny: Okay. *Writes note down* What about the woman next to him?

Bruce: That's Cat Grant, and no, she can't be trusted. Everything you say to her will turn into a gossip-lifting, life-ruining article.

Danny: Got it. *writes more notes*

Jason, watching the two from a few feet away: Say, who's that kid Bruce is media training? Is he a new ward he took in?

Tim: No, that's Danny Fenton, the face of Fenton Works. They signed up as a sub-company of Wayne Enterprise. Originally, they were a paranormal investigation and capture company- yes, I mean ghost hunters- but it was discovered that almost all thier tech can be used on metas. Bruce wants to make medical equipment that can be used by our enhanced citizens.

Jason: I see. But why a kid so young? He's your age, right?

Tim: Hmm, apparently his parents, the owners of Fenton Works, made him CEO so they could focus on ghost hunting and the occasional meta medical machines for Bruce. He got here a week ago to shadow me for CEO training, and Bruce stole him after they met outside my office. Danny hangs onto his every word, and I think Bruce forgot what it was like to have a kid actually listen to him.

Jason: Ah thats makes sense. What do you think of him?

Tim: Well, he's a little naive, easy to trick, and has way too much empathy for the cold world of business. I'm gonna have him in my bed.

Jason: Ah....well that took a turn. One I do not like so I'm gonna....*walks away*

Tim: He will be ✨️mine✨️

Third time the charm?

You guys know those AUs where Damian and Danny are twins, know about each other, and prank the Batfamily by switching places?

Or maybe they pretend that Danny was always there, and "how could you forget about your other son/brother?! Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" deal?

Well

What if Danny couldn't stay in Amity anymore? What if he was forced to leave everything behind, leaving a family that he knew he loved, but couldn't say for sure they loved him back?

His twin was his last option, the first family that left him behind.

It was with delight that he found out that he had changed. The whole family was cautious at first, but quickly warmed up to him, and so did Danny.

He gave up the hero life, hoping to finally finish school and try to achieve his dream of becoming an astronaut!

And then, one morning, he woke up with everybody staring at him in the living room.

He looked around, confused.

"Morning?"

"...morning?" Tim answered him cautiouslly. Bruce stepped forward.

"Excuse me, could I ask you as to why you are in our house?"

Danny looked around in confusion.

"Shouldn't I be here? You've all been gone for a mission the past week, if you needed me somewhere, you've could've texted me dad"

Bruce's mouth thinned in a line and the silence stretches enough for Danny to understand.

"Oh... You don't..."

It's an awful sensation to suddenly feel your throat tighten up.

"You told me it was a timeline issue, you don't... "

And just like that, Danny found his third family leaving him behind.

Or

Two words that sounded like a sentence, for who? Nobody knows.

But nobody follows.

Which is worse.

Danny goes up the stairs, going back to hi- the guest room he was using. Walking to closer to the bed he got his backpack from under the bed and started packing everything he would need.

Nothing sentimental, he doesn't have those anymore after he learned his lesson about keeping sentimental trash around.

His core cracks a little more, reopening old wounds.

Just like he doesn't cry anymore, even if he wants to.

"Upset." Cass materialize besides him. "Leaving?"

"Yes, i can't do this again anymore." Danny responds, tired of the cosmic joke that is his life. "I was cast aside and forgotten by the Al Ghuls, later i was forgotten by the Fentons befor- and then I'm am forgotten by you guys... just after i was finally accepted by the family."

"Stay, please."

Oh, how he wishes he could literally cry. "I'm sorry, but i can't keep doing this again and again." He sighs.

It cracks a little more.

Cass frowns, clearly not liking the depressive resignation that settled on Danny's shoulders.

"I should stayed alone and saved myself from the pain." Danny mourns. "But i wanted a family who wouldn't forget me, i wanted to go to school and have a civilian life."

"Oh well, it's like they say: third time's the charm." Danny fake cheers. "I had to learn that having a family was never on the cards for me."

Danny finishes packing all his things, Cass distressing notices how little he has.

Garth: We already ruled out most of land languages. I could try Atlantean? Or four of the Seven Sea Comman?

Dick: Go for it it.

Garth: *Turns to flouting figure and speaking in clacking tounge sounds*

Dick: Well?

Garth: No reaction. I don't think he understands.

Dick: Drat. Anyone else?

Kori: I have tried using the few languages I know, and I also failed. However, if I can get close enough I could use my people's lip to lip contact to learn his language instantly.

Dick: I doubt that he will let you get that close but we can try- what are you two doing?

Roy: Setting up the ultimate form of communication

Wally: Interpretive dance! Hit it!

Dick: No-

Wally/Roy:

Danny floating down, teary eye: No one has ever said such poetry about my mother.

Dick: you spoke English this whole time!?

Danny: No, I learned it just so I could thank these two for the touching way they spoke of my mother.

Wally: And you said we couldn't dance.

Roy: Showed you, didn't we? High five Kid!

Danny, shrugging: Sure okay.

Dick, pausing: "Okay"?! This is Gotham! Don't just listen to weirdos who randomly grab you off the street.

Danny: But whatever you were doing seemed way more interesting than meeting my weird godfather for dinner.

Dick: Regardless- have more respect for your life!

Danny: *snorts*

Kon: What's wrong little bud?

Jon: I wanted to hang out with Damian, but we always do it here in Metropolis so I told him we could do something in Gotham.

Kon: Okay?

Jon crying louder: Gotham is scary! They have ghosts! REAL ones!

Kon: ....You know ghosts are real. I have one my team. Greta is one-

Jon: WHAT!? I THOUGHT THAT WAS GRETA's GIMMICK! LIKE WRESTLING! I DIDN'T SHE WAS FOR REAL A GHOST

Kon: oh. No. She's a ghost.

Jon: *Wailing*

Kon: Hey. She's a friendly ghost. You know that. She always been nice to you, hasn't she?

Jon: I-I Guess

Kon: And I'm sure Damian would never bring you somewhere that has unfriendly ghosts.

Jon: I mean *sniff* Phantom wanted to play Mario Kart with us.

Kon: Yeah, thats sounds fun. I play with Greta all the time.

Jon: He also whispers the way we're all going to die. Dad needs to stay away from someone called "Doomsday."

Kon: ....okay, so maybe Damian would take you somewhere dangerous. I should have known. That's on me. But I'll text Tim and verify that Phantom is good to be around.

Jon: Really?

Kon: Yeah.

Jon: Do you think it was rude that I screamed in his face and flew away to cry at home?

Danny: Sure, depending on what it is.

Tim: You know how in every "fake dating" story, and movie the fake daters fall in love? I want to run an experiment to see if I fake date someone, if we'll catch feelings.

Danny: That sounds super interesting, but I can't. Considering my massive crush on you, you wouldn't get accurate data. Sorry.

Tim: Nah its fine thanks anyway. *walks away*

Danny: *goes back to scrounging around in his backpack*

Tim: *runs back over almost tackling Danny to the ground* You Have A Massive Crush On Me?!

Danny: Yeah. You didn't know? Because I have not been subtle.

A bodyswap soulmate AU with corpse AU.

Just imagine Danny trying to bury his own body, the shovel is his hands throwing mud and dirt over the hole with a clear view of his corpse; when suddenly he gets bodyswap with his soulmate.

That would be pretty hard to explain, especially to a vigilante who now is probably in panic that their soulmate just murdered a teenager. Should they help hide the body? That is their soulmate so it should be for a good reason their soulmate just killed someone, right? RIGHT?

Adding to this~~

Jason pauses, looking at the corpse of a much younger person. He glances around the partially wooded area and very quickly realizes this must be his soulmate swap...

He shrugs, continuing to bury the body. He cant say shit when he was doing the same thing. Little worried they killed a kid tho.

------

Danny pauses. Blinks.

The corpse is much older and has a bullet hole in the forehead.

"You are not who I was trying to bury."

He looks at his hands, which are wearing gloves... and hes wearing a leather jacket?

And a, motorcycle helmet?

The sudden realization that his soulmate is now in his body, SEEING his corpse, sends panic surging through him... for about 10 seconds. Then he remembers the very different corpse in front of him.

Well. Hopefully this will be a funny story to tell at their wedding. He grips the shovel and continues to bury the body. Hopefully his soulmate covers his too. After all if they rat him out, he can always return the favor.

--------

Jason finishes hiding the corpse leaving three rocks with a piece of bark on top of it to help blend it in with the forest but also to remember where it was.

He dusts his hands and pats his pockets Hopefully he can get a look at his soulmate and find out their name.. and age.. and where the hell he is.

--

Danny is his soulmate, Danny Fenton. Lives in Amity Park, Illinois. About four states away. Best friends, Sam Manson and Tucker Foley. Sister Jazz and parents Jack and Madeline Fenton... mad scientists. He's a local weirdo nobody with a pretty face... and a corpse that looks suspiciously like himself.

Jason wonders what he thinks of him, what story he came up with to explain the body.

Well. Hopefully he doesn't get his body killed, in Gotham, at night, dressed as Red Hood.

Fuck.

A bodyswap soulmate AU with corpse AU.

Just imagine Danny trying to bury his own body, the shovel is his hands throwing mud and dirt over the hole with a clear view of his corpse; when suddenly he gets bodyswap with his soulmate.

Gosip

“Im surprised no one clocked us as twins yet”

“Not surprised, I look amazing while you look like a drowned cat”

“Excuse me?! We literally have the same face!”

“Sadly not the same taste for fashion,”

“…we are in our uniforms, what non-sense are you spouting now”

“See! That’s why you are the inferior twin”

“I hate you…”

“Sure thing Lil’ bro,”

Edit: Ill probably redo it when I have time, I kinda hate how empty it is—

A midnight prompt that came to mind before going to bed (Not that I have a lot of time left to sleep).

Dick learned a lot whole living with Bruce, one of those things was how much of an advantage being underestimated gave you. Bruce might like to use his dumb mask to separate Batman from Bruce, but Dick preferred to play up the dumb and naive thing as Nightwing. Bruce was good at seeing the logistics of a case, the mechanics, but Dick like to resolve things by figuring out the social aspects, intend, desire.

—

Dick hadn't realised just how strained his act had gotten since Phantom just. would. not. open. up! They were trying to help goddammit! He was going to tear his hair out in frustration at this point.
