DPxDC PROMPT ---- Self-Defense

DPxDC PROMPT ---- Self-Defense

Danny gets a job in Gotham as a self-defense instructor.

It satisfies his protection obsession, because he's teaching people to protect themselves.

He is teaching at a local gym. Basically, the gym gives classes, and finally decided to institute a bit of self-defense in the curriculum, because it's Gotham, after all. (Don't ask me why they didn't have it before, idk)

And Danny came rolling in with fake credentials, beat the other applicants, and got the job.

Jason has been going to this gym since he returned to Gotham, so he decides, what the hell, might as well try this class. it'll probably be a light, relaxing thing.

Wrong.

The first time Danny and Jason spar to gage Jason's skill level, Jason holds back, so Danny wins, but Danny requests a rematch, because he can tell Jason's not giving it his all.

Five minutes later, Jason is on his back on the mat, gazing up into sky blue eyes, and he hasn't been thrown like this in years. He was too big once he came out of the Pit, and honestly, the fact that this guy can manhandle, flip, and pin all 6' 4'' of him is extremely hot.

Danny is happy because he's fulfilling his obsession. Meanwhile Jason is pining for this man, and Danny is oblivious. Jason is slowly dropping hints of his interest, and Danny is misconstruing them in a platonic context, and Jason is getting to know him and falling more and more in love.

You know what, what the hell, let's add de-aged Dani in too.

One day, Jason follows Danny home. (he's a bat, they don't do boundaries like normal people do.)

He sees him head to an elementary school, and panics because is this perfect soulmate of his, like, a kidnapper or something?

He sees him pick Dani up and resigns himself to following this guy because he might be involved in trafficking thing or something, and then he's duty bound to shoot Danny, which is really quite a pity.

Instead, he sees them go home, and Danny being a good Dad, and he's just like "aaaaahhhh he's a good parent how many boxes can he check that i didn't know i had."

Eventually they end up dating. Don't quite know how it happens, but it does.

Talia is holding Damian and she introduces him to Dick.

"That's your brother, Damian."

Damian does not really know what a brother is, but Dick does, and he's always wanted a little baby brother to dote on and hug and teach.

At first, Dick is a little apprehensive, because even though he's been introduced as Damian's brother, he feels like he might be replaced.

Then, one day, he's doing cartwheels across the huge lawn of Wayne Manor, and Damian comes outside. Dick doesn't notice him at first, but after he's done with a series of cartwheels and stands up, and he sees Damian, a tiny little four-year-old, trying to copy him and getting frustrated when he keeps failing and falling on his butt.

Dick helps him with the cartwheels and that is the day that he starts to really see Damian as his brother and that is the day that Dick becomes Damian's favorite person in the world.

Additionally, the Joker mysteriously dies two weeks after the Al Ghuls arrive in Gotham. Bruce looks over at Talia suspiciously over dinner that night, but he can't prove anything, so he goes back to his mashed potatoes without a word.

Tim and Damian hit it off at a gala and Talia notices the small signs of neglect that the kid is showing. She does a bit of digging and finds the horrible parent situation, remembering exactly what happened to Tim in her previous timeline.

Jason joins the family as usual, through the stealing of the Batmobile's tires, and Talia makes sure that he never ends up in the Lazarus Pits.

Bonus points if Selina, Talia, Harley, Babs, and Ivy meet up every few weeks to just chat about things.

Taila goes back in time 

She goes back in time to when Damian is about 4. He has just started lessons. Talia is back for about a week. She knows she should tell her father but something is holding her back. it's when she goes to see Damian and overhears him trying to muffle his cries in his bedroom that she thinks about doing something else. 

She remembers seeing her son thriving with his father. Comfortable seeking out comfort with his siblings and being a child. She thought of it as a weakness at that point but when she hears his cries she realizes that she does not want him to go back to the cold and angry child he was.

She's not being watched as there is nothing that could preemptive her to leave that her father knows of so she has an easy time being able to contact Bruce. She gets Damien ready and says it's very important training and not to tell anyone. She does not tell Bruce Why she contacted him, so he is expecting some sort of plot or her giving him information on one of her enemies, not a son. 

She shows up to the meeting rattled.  She tries to get a gauge of his feelings towards her at the moment and is very pleasantly surprised when he is defensive but not hostile. Bruce notices that she's rattled and gets very concerned. 

She then brings out Damien. He shocked and is expecting her to make an ultimatum when she blurts out she wants them to leave.  it catches him completely off guard because every time he mentioned her leaving she made it sound like it was a foolish idea.

He agrees to take her back with him and to protect her from her father. she does not tell him about the time travel but she does tell him about what made her want to leave. Using it to appeal to his empathetic side as to let her stay with him. She does not realize that he had no plans of separating her from her son.

Dick is about 14. He is very on edge and scared of his place at the Manor. his father figure just came back with a blood son and the mom. Dick is inspecting to be regaled to the background or kicked out. Talia is the one to reassure him accidentally when he comes to see Damien and she calls them siblings. She knew him as her son's favorite brother obviously she's going to refer to them as siblings.

Yay part four the Silence of the Robin's.

Pretty angsty NGL

DP X DC PROMT: ATLANTIS

Maddie and Jack did not react well to Danny being a ghost. They immediately attempted to catch him and experiment on him.

Jazz had enough time to throw a duffle bag of clothes and stuff at him and tell him to run. Danny rushed over to Sam's house, and she called Tucker, who came rushing over in a hurry. They added some money and tech to the duffle, before the Fenton parents came knocking at the door to Sam's house, inquiring as to their son's whereabouts.

Danny went ghost and jumped out the window.

He travels for days, aimlessly stopping in several cities, such as Gotham, Metropolis, and Star City. In all of them, though, the Fentons manage to track him down through ecto-location tech.

Danny has been in his ghost form for days now, and hasn't had access to enough ectoplasm to keep him fully solid, so he has essentially vaporized his legs into a tail to conserve energy.

He also has not slept in far longer than is advisable, so his sleep-deprived brain decides "fuck it, I look like a mermaid, why not try to live in the ocean? It's not like my parents can get to me there."

Aquaman is extremely concerned about the new, apparently super-powerful, mer that has appeared recently near the outskirts of his kingdom.

Brad Wayne Idea- He Must be The Red Hood

Ok. So I really think the idea of brad Wayne is hilarious, but what if....

At some Wayne charity gala or something, the joker decides to crash the party. Brad has been here for all of a week, and doesn't know shit about how Gotham works, especially not the rogues. So he sees this guy in a weird suit break into his new families gala acting like a lunatic, and the man just decks him. Just. Annihilates. The. Joker.

The joker goes down, and there's this instant of silence , before the entirety of the gala just erupts into cheers. The bat kids are standing there, dumbstruck, Bruce is halfway out the door, frozen, Damian has taken emotional damage because he, Robin, has never been able to punch the Jokers lights out, and Brad has become Jason's new favorite sibling.

The entire thing is televised, or recorded or something, and it goes viral almost instantaneously.

The Internet begins to circulate with rumors. After all, there is no way a non- vigilante could do this to the most feared, violent, and psychopathic rogue in Gotham.

Unless one is equally as feared, violent, and psychopathic. Such as the Red Hood, crime lord, murderer, the best and worst of Gotham, unstable on a good day.

The world comes to a conclusion.

Bradley Wayne is the Red Hood.

Meanwhile, Jason is sitting in one of his safehouses watching the clip of the joker getting his nose broken on repeat, laughing his ass off at the crazy theories.

The pit rage is quiet for the first time in ages.
