How could I not? đ
Summoning has never been off the table. In fact Danny welcomes it.
At least after the first 50 he did.
Now itâs just getting repetitive. Destroy the world, end this specific race, person, sexuality. Heâs really heard it all and it honestly sucks. Heâs a protective spirit damn it!
Look at all the high and mighty people and cultists that would call on him for their mortal issues? It's even more annoying to listen to the whiney people who think they're entitled to his power or his time.
So he did what he should've done this whole time. If ghosts are strong enough emotional echoes, why shouldn't it be the same way? He establishes a connection between his summoning circle. If the caster's intent when casting the spell is for anything other than protecting life, its free game. Que the registration of numerous ghost to send an echo of themself to fuck with the people who thought they could fuck with the king. Of course, there are rules. You're only there for a short window. No killing is permitted unless a caster is hostile and a threat to ghosts. Ensure the safety and good health of human sacrifices. Blah,blah, blah. But most importantly, make them regret ever casting the spell in the first place. Upon numerous heroes failing to stop the summoning in time, there's a vast amount of random shit that happens further proves to not fuck with the realms. Batman can only hear the nostalgic music before witnessing the lead cultist that nabbed Jason get hit by an ice cream truck driven by a muscular man and little girl in uniforms. Tim and could agree that their soft serve was the best they ever had. Hal comes onto the cultists being forced into a tea party and learning their table manners from a blue dragon in a gorgeous dress and tiara. Flash comes up to Shazam and a lanky grey figure with glasses discussing Justice League fanfiction while the cultists have to cosplay the members and live out their found family dreams. Spectra is having the time of her life honestly. Talking things out with depressed kids to work through those feelings or being allowed to pay a certain clown a visit time and time again for her good work along with, spooking frats and sororities.
Superman has been quick to react to cultists after a little demon of a girl promised to return if he wasn't treating his clone better to not repeat the beatdown that was personally recorded and handed to Lex to make if he agreed to make merch from it. Most summon sites are Jumpscare Central or a straight up scrap. It's also a wonderful chance for Spectra to give the bats what they fear most. THERAPY!!! Under Jasmine's supervision, of course. JLD has heard the outcries of the JL and still keeps their good standing with the king to themselves. Especially that said king is over every Friday with treats and gifts from throughout the ages. He's fallen for the blonde warlock that has always been able to reliably call on him because he only does it when ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY! Danny found it odd that the only person who could call him now was a sad Brit in a trenchcoat but a conversation or two had them see that they were often than not on the same wavelength. Sick of their duty, in need of a drink, and helping the world to the best of their ability. John is just so human and reminds him of how he is too. That soon applies to Zatanna too, who's distraught from leading. Besides, what happens in the House of Mysteries stays in the House of Mysteries.
I need more of Danny and Sad Tench-coat man/Tired Dad Constantine
Danny gets summoned by the Justice League and itâs playing along as the terrifying Ghost King when Constantine bursts through the door to ask them âWhat the bloody hell they think theyâre doing?!â Before he spots Danny and just sighs
Danny however just does a 180 from >:( âBig bad Ghost Kingâ to :D âConstantine!â
Everybody is just watching as Danny opens a portal to his office and reaches in, pulling out Constantineâs ridiculous amount paperwork.
Danny: :D
Constantine: nO-
Danny Does like spending time with Constantine, and spends time and even stays over in the House of Mystery when he needs to take a break from King Stuff-
Constantine: What are you doing in my houseâŚwhat are you doing in my hOUSE
Danny: I want Waffle Fries đ˘wđ˘
Dp x dc prompt because I have nothing else on my mind.
Grayson twins au! But, Danny was given up for adoption as an infant. The Graysons couldn't take care of two kids in the circus. It was just too much. So they gave up one.
Years later, when they're both about 14, Dick and Danny finally meet. At first, they're actually quite similer. They're funny, puns galore, and just happy to know the other exists. They stayed in contact for a while, Bruce, Maddie, and Jack all kept in contact aswell. Making sure the boys had time to meet up. On all levels except for physical (fraternal twins) they were the same.
Then Danny's accident happened. No one but Danny and his friends knew. So when Dick noticed Danny's sudden change in behavior, he became worried. He started checking in more, constantly asking how Danny was.
But when Jason came into the picture, Dick also became distracted. Their contact dropped, their meet ups became scarce, and even when they did happen, Danny was quiet, and Dick was distracted.
Then Jason died. Dick became desperate for brotherly connection, grief and hallucinations consumed him. His lack of contact with Danny suddenly became too much. Constant maddening calls, worried letters, immediet panic whenever Danny didn't respond. Eventually, Danny had to sit him down and give him a very rough talk. It basicly sums up to, "Look, man, I have my own life, and I need to live it. Please, get help, and don't talk to me until you do." It was the finale nail in the coffin. Dick felt betrayed, and they wouldn't speak to each other for years after that.
Whenever they do meet again (up to you), everyone is shocked by how different they are. Dick is so bubbly and fun, Danny is serious and stiff. Dick is cuddly and affectionate, Danny keeps his distance and saves his praises for when they are really needed. Dick stands tall and strong, Danny slouches, depending on a crutch to support him.
While the bat siblings seem uncomfortable with him and unerved by the stark difference between the two, Dick has made it his mission to rekindle the brotherly fire between the two. Slowly, but surely, the siblings realise how alike they actually are, both for the good and the bad.
The justice league was in disaray. They had failed to stop the summoning, and already the demon was stepping out of the portal. The last standing heros didn't have the manpower to stop a whole thrall army and the magic users certainly hadn't the power to deal with the demon himself. They needed a plan, or a miracle, or the earth was doomed.
Suddenly, Constantine braced himself, and strode right to the beast.
"Don't step further, or I'll have to call my dad."
The heros were baffled. The demon too.
"That's right," he was sweating bullets but he continued "I'm John Constantine and Phantom is my dad. He cares a lot about Earth. He will not take kindly your little invading stunt."
"Who is Phantom ?" wispered Flash to Zatana.
"I don't know."
The league didn't know if he was bluffing or not. Zatana had recently heard rumors about Constantine's father, but it was all vague, shrouded in secrecy.
The surprised past, the demon laught.
Constantine took a deep breath and reluctantly put out a piece of paper form his inner pocket. As he put it in fire with a spell, the cave they were in was breifly plunged in freezing cold and supernatural darkness. A thunderous ice crack resoned, that they could feel in their chest as much as they heard. The shadows sleethed into the form of a titanesque being, and suddenly big, bright, lazarus green eyes opened. And they didn't look happy.
He gulped.
"Hi dad."
"I know," the magician cringed, "I swear I have a good reason."
Now the being looked downright pissed.
"He wants to destroy the Earth !" defended Constantine almost petulantly, waving at the confused demon.
The green eyes looked at the demonic being, then the leaguers in various states of injuries, then the demon again. The demon didn't seem like he wanted to be here anymore. He was proved right when he received a monstruous fist in the face.
The entity grabbed him by an ankle, threw him back to hell, then slammed the portal shut as if it was a door. Constantine visibly relaxed.
"Thanks a lot."
"No. And I'm really sorry, I know it's late."
And just like that, he was gone. Wally had to sit down.
"What the fuck."

Hi everyone ! I was reminded of that post a while ago where Danny inherited of Connie's soul and decided it counts as adoption (can't find it now) and this is what came to my brain.
Roy and Lian go away for a week and Jason gets lonely so he goes to one of CatWomans safe houses.
Selina walking in seeing a six foot beefy ass Jason playing with one of her kittens: HeyâŚ
Jason: Sup
Selina: Is Roy out of town?
Jason petting the loudest orange kitten she has: Yeah howâd you know
It all started with a ghost. A very loud, very neon, very annoying ghost that thought it was a great idea to haunt Stark Tower. Danny Fentonâpart-time student, full-time accidental hero, and perpetually exhausted teenâwas just trying to track the damn thing through the Manhattan skyline when his portal malfunctioned (again), exploded in his face (again), and slingshotted him across the sky, straight through a window that turned out to be reinforced vibranium glass.
It shouldâve stopped him. It didnât.
Cue the alarms. Cue the dozens of defense drones locking onto his energy signature. Cue a 19-year-old Danny dangling upside down in the penthouse, surrounded by billion-dollar murder bots, trying to explain to a very confused AI that he was not, in fact, an alien invader.
But before FRIDAY could blast him into oblivion, a small voice piped up from behind a couch. âAre you a fairy?â
Danny blinked. Dangling upside down. Singed suit. Ectoplasm dripping from his hair. âUh. Sure.â
The voice belonged to a tiny, curly-haired gremlin wearing a tutu, light-up sneakers, and what looked like Tony Starkâs old Iron Man helmetâthree sizes too big and twice as chaotic. This was Morgan Stark. Age: five. Chaos level: eldritch god. She approached him like a cat approaches a new toy: equal parts curiosity and threat assessment.
âCan you do sparkles?â she asked.
Danny shot a tiny beam of ecto-energy at the ceiling light, which exploded into fireworks.
Morgan gasped. âOH MY GOD, YOU ARE A FAIRY.â
And that was how Danny Fenton became Morgan Starkâs official babysitter.
It wasnât like he volunteered. Or got paid. Or even agreed. Tony Stark had been out of the countryâsomething about a diplomatic mess in Wakanda and a golf game with TâChalla. Pepper had begged Steve Rogers to watch Morgan, but Steveâs idea of babysitting was forcing a child to recite the Constitution. So Pepper, desperate and very, very sleep-deprived, walked into her penthouse to find a teenage boy hovering in midair while her daughter screamed âFAIRY GODBROâ at him and decided, âYeah. Sure. Thisâll do.â
âCan you keep her alive?â Pepper asked, not even blinking at the glowing green eyes.
Danny shrugged. âUh. I guess?â
âYou get dental.â
Danny had no idea what that meant but was too scared to argue.
By Day Three, he was in hell. Not the Ghost Zone. Not some apocalyptic alternate timeline. Actual hell. Or what felt like it. Morgan had no concept of mortality. She once duct-taped kitchen knives to her arms and yelled âIâM WOLVERINE NOW.â Another time, she tried to feed their Roomba peanut butter and sobbed when it wouldnât eat.
Danny tried to keep up. He really did.
Unfortunately, he was also being hunted by an interdimensional ghost warlord named Balthazar the Undying who decided Stark Tower was a great place to stage his declaration of conquest. So in between coloring pages and singing âLet It Goâ for the 57th time (because Morgan said if he didnât, sheâd tell everyone he âpees ectoplasmâ), Danny was banishing ancient horrors to the Shadow Realm.
âWhy does the air taste like sadness?â Morgan asked one morning, sipping chocolate milk while a spectral hand clawed its way out of the floor behind her.
Danny shot it with a laser without looking. âThatâs just the trauma, kid.â
She nodded like that made sense.
By Day Five, things got weirder.
Bruce Banner came over to âassess the babysitter.â What he found was a 19-year-old ghost hybrid making chicken nuggets with one hand while performing an exorcism on a sentient blender with the other. Bruce blinked. âYouâre multitasking.â
Danny, dead-eyed and covered in slime: âYouâre not my real dad.â
Bruce left after Morgan bit him.
Then Peter Parker dropped by. He took one look at Dannyâhaggard, twitching, wearing a tiaraâand whispered, âOh my god, he is a hot mess.â
âShut up,â Danny snapped, using his foot to hold down a haunted Roomba. âHelp me tie up the possessed dolls.â
Peter did not help. He just filmed everything for TikTok. The video went viral under the title âMe when I leave a random ghost fairy babysitter with Tony Starkâs child and come back to find him summoning the underworld during snack time.â
Nick Fury saw the video and sent a S.W.O.R.D. strike team to investigate.
Morgan beat them with a plastic lightsaber.
On Day Seven, Danny woke up to find Morgan riding a flying toaster around the living room like it was a dragon.
âWHERE DID YOU GET THAT?â
âI summoned it,â she said proudly.
âHOW.â
âI made a deal with your ghost friends.â
Dannyâs left eye twitched so hard he saw the Ghost Zone.
Pepper walked in on him mid-breakdown. âYouâve been great with her,â she said, sipping her coffee. âWe havenât seen her this happy since⌠well, ever.â
Danny, clinging to the ceiling like a feral raccoon, wheezed, âI think she opened a portal to the Necroplane. Thereâs a demon named Craig living in the fridge.â
Pepper patted his arm. âAll babysitters say that.â
Craig opened the fridge and waved. âSup.â
By Week Two, Danny had stopped pretending to be normal. He phased through walls, levitated toys, vaporized anything that smelled like danger, and occasionally screamed âIâM TOO YOUNG TO BE HAVING A MID-LIFE CRISISâ into the void.
Tony finally came home. He blinked at the scene: Danny napping upside down like a bat while Morgan built a nuclear reactor out of old toaster parts and a Roomba named Kevin.
âWho the hell is that?â Tony asked.
Morgan didnât even look up. âMy fairy godbrother. He banished an evil frog ghost and helped me build an orbital laser.â
Tony stared. âHuh. Alright.â
And just like that, Danny Fenton became part of the Avengers.
He didnât sign anything. He didnât train. He didnât even get a uniform. But every time something exploded or a portal opened or some ancient deity said âBEHOLD MY TRUE FORM,â Danny just floated into the air, cracked his back like an old man, and said, âNot in front of the child, you drama bitch.â
Morgan, from her juice box throne: âYEET HIM INTO THE VOID, DANNY.â
And he did.
It only got worse when the other Avengers got involved.
Natasha tried to teach Morgan how to do spy stuff. Morgan used the techniques to sneak into Tonyâs wine cellar and replace the labels with glitter glue and threats.
Thor visited once. Morgan asked if she could ride his hammer. He said no. She cried. The hammer floated toward her on its own. Danny had to wrestle it away.
Clint brought over a bow and arrow set. Morgan hit Peter in the ass with a suction cup dart. Danny laughed so hard he choked on ectoplasm.
Wanda stared at Danny for a full ten minutes before whispering, âYouâre not from this plane.â
Danny, deadpan: âNeither is your eyeliner.â
They became friends.
One night, Danny woke up to find Morgan drawing summoning circles on the walls in glitter glue.
âWhatcha doing, champ?â
âTrying to summon a unicorn for Auntie Yelena.â
Danny blinked. âGo back to bed.â
She glared. âYou donât support women in STEM.â
By Month One, SHIELD had officially labeled Danny as a âClass 7 Unexplainable Being with Babysitting Potential.â He had a badge. He had clearance. He had no idea what was happening anymore.
All he knew was that if Morgan Stark said âDanny, I wanna adopt a ghost puppy,â then by God, he was going to march into the Ghost Zone and wrestle a spectral hellhound into a leash.
And he did.
Its name is Toast.
Danny Fentonâghost boy, half-dead teenager, babysitter of the yearâaccidentally became the most powerful figure in the universe. Not because of his powers. Not because of his knowledge. Not even because of his tragic backstory.
But because Morgan Stark liked him. And if you hurt Morgan Stark, you would be introduced to Craig, the fridge demon, and Kevin, the haunted Roomba, and Toast, the ghost puppy, and then, finally, the very angry, very tired, very over-it Danny Phantom who couldâand wouldâyeet you into another dimension for interrupting nap time.
The Avengers knew better than to interfere.
Even Thanos came back to life once, took one look at Danny and Morgan, and said, âNo thanks.â
He snapped himself back out of existence.
Danny didnât even flinch.
Morgan dabbed.
And somewhere, in the vast multiverse of chaos and consequence, Tony Stark looked at his daughter, his haunted apartment, his glowing ghost babysitter eating fruit snacks while levitating a possessed microwave, and muttered to himselfâ
âYeah. That tracks.â

Constantineâs Kids
Floating in the night sky
Everyone wants to be Tim Drakes favorite, but not for the reasons you might think.
Itâs not about Timâs intelligence or his quick wit, though those things are undeniably impressive. Itâs not about the way he somehow manages to hold the entire Bat-family together, even as they fray at the seams. Itâs not even about the quiet warmth he offers, the small moments where he lets his guard down just enough to remind everyone that heâs human, too.
No.
They want to be his favorite because Tim gives and gives and givesâuntil thereâs nothing left of him to take.
âââ
Bruce wants to be Timâs favorite because itâs easier than admitting how badly heâs failed him.
Tim is a reminder of every mistake Bruce has made as a father, every time he turned his back or let Tim fall through the cracks. He wasnât there when Tim needed him most, when Joker turned him into something unrecognizable, when Tim clawed his way back to himself alone. Bruce thinks if he could just be Timâs favorite, maybe it would make up for all the times he wasnât enough.
But it doesnât.
It wonât.
And Bruce knows it.
âââ
Dick wants to be Timâs favorite because he doesnât know how to fix the distance between them.
It wasnât always like this. Once upon a time, Dick was Timâs hero, the person he looked up to more than anyone else. But things changed, and the closeness they shared shattered under the weight of misunderstandings and unspoken words. Dick misses the boy who idolized him, who trusted him without question.
He wants to be Timâs favorite because he doesnât know how to be his brother anymore.
âââ
Jason wants to be Timâs favorite because he sees too much of himself in him.
He knows what itâs like to be the one everyone forgets, the one who carries the familyâs burdens without complaint, even as the cracks start to show. Jason doesnât want Tim to end up like himâbitter, angry, consumed by the feeling of being unwanted.
But Jason doesnât know how to show that. So instead, he fights for Timâs attention, picking at him, challenging him, pushing him away even as he tries to pull him closer.
He wants to be Timâs favorite because it would mean Tim still has room in his heart for someone like him.
âââ-
Steph wants to be Timâs favorite because heâs the one she always chooses.
She loves him. God, she loves him so much it hurts sometimes. But Steph also knows Tim has walls he doesnât let anyone pastânot even her. He hides himself behind his work, behind his role as Red Robin, behind the pieces of himself heâs convinced no one else will ever understand.
She wants to be Timâs favorite because she doesnât know if heâs capable of letting her be anything more.
âââ
Cass wants to be Timâs favorite because she sees what the others donât.
Tim is tired. So tired heâs cracking beneath the surface, even if heâs too stubborn to show it. Cass sees the way he pushes himself, the way he gives and gives and gives until thereâs nothing left. She wants to shield him from it, from the weight he insists on carrying alone.
But Tim doesnât let her.
He doesnât let anyone.
Cass wants to be his favorite because maybe then heâd let her take some of the weight.
âââ
Duke wants to be Timâs favorite because Tim makes him feel like he belongs.
Duke is still finding his place in the Bat-family, still figuring out where he fits in this patchwork of broken people trying to make something whole. But Tim? Tim treats him like heâs always been part of it, like heâs not someone on the outside trying to find his way in.
He wants to be Timâs favorite because Tim makes him feel seen in a way no one else does. And maybe, just maybe, being his favorite would mean Duke could give that feeling back to him.
âââ
Damian wants to be Timâs favorite because he doesnât know how else to be a brother.
Itâs not like heâll ever admit it. Not out loud. But thereâs a part of Damian that craves Timâs approval, that wants to hear Tim say heâs proud of him, that he trusts him.
But Tim is cautious around Damian, careful in a way that feels like distance. And Damian hates itâhates that no matter how much heâs changed, no matter how hard he tries, thereâs still something fractured between them.
He wants to be Timâs favorite because he doesnât know how else to prove that he cares.
âââ
The truth is, everyone wants to be Tim Drakeâs favorite because they know they arenât.
Tim doesnât play favorites.
Heâs too careful for that, too afraid of what it might mean, what it might cost. He keeps himself at armâs length, even from the people who love him most.
They want to be Timâs favorite because maybe then heâd stop being so afraid to let them in.
But Tim doesnât know how to do that.
And maybe he never will.
Dpxdc Prompt #22
There's a new weatherman in Gotham, only he seems to report on everything except for the weather.
âââââââââââââââââ
"And for today's forecast we've got an Arkham breakout on our hands. Not to worry though! It's only Harley and Two-Face this time. Harley's currently dating Ivy so there may be some cuddle pollen spread around, but no psycho killer episodes!"
"If you live in Two-Face territory you may, as always, want to carry a rigged coin with you, but his escape seemed rather low-key. It's unlikely he's going to be trying anything soon."
"Bats to look out for tonight are the Dynamic Duo, Red Hood, and Batgirl. Nightwing's currently hanging out in our sister city of Bludhaven, Black Bat is still who knows where, Red Robin is not allowed to be patrolling for too many sleepless nights, and there's not enough crime tonight to pull Signal onto the nightshift."
"Make sure to watch the roads, because it seems Batgirl is still trying to drive the Batmobile whenever Batman is distracted. Other that the weather will be full of smog, dust, and clouds as always. Stay sharp Gotham, signing offâDanny Fenton, your weatherman."
Tim is going to tear out his hair.
Wait no, Tim isn't going to do that because that means smiley-enigmatic-weatherman Danny Fenton will win.
The new addition to the Gotham news team has been both a blessing and a curse for the Bats.
He almost never reports about the weather, not that there is much to report with it staying practically the same, or being affected by villain attacks rather than natural causes.
Fenton has decided that means he should report on villain attacks of the day. Which on it's own wouldn't be a problem, awareness of attacks saves lives.
No, the problem is he somehow has access to information not even the Bats have and reports on attacks before they happen. He also seems to have an acute knowledge of what's going on with the Bats everyday as well and it's driving Tim crazy.
Is he prophetic? Does he have an informant? Is he just somehow a better detective than the World's Greatest?
Fenton always keeps up the most goofy grin as he spouts information that he should not have access to and Tim is going to crack this case if it's the last thing he does. Its almost as if the weatherman is taunting Tim on purpose.
âââââââââââââââââ
When Danny got a job offer for the news station in Gotham he decided to bring a little bit of home with him. He's also trying to see how quickly he can make one of the Bats go grayâor bald he's not picky.
He bets its gonna be Red Robin, the guy can't stand not knowing everything.
