Danny: Excuse me, I'm a student photographer at Gotham U, and one of our assignments is to take shots of Gotham Street Glam. Would it be alright if I took your pictures and used them in my project?
Steph: Yes, of course! Do you want us to pose?
Danny: Yes, if that is okay with you and you have some time that would be wonderful.
Steph: Yeah no problem. I'm Stephanie by the way, but call me Steph. This is Cassandra- call her Cass. Next to her is Jason- call him Jay. And lastly that's Richard. Call him Ric.
Dick: No, do not call me that. Call me Dick please.
Steph: I mean sure if you want to break the pattern and be SpEaCiAl.
Danny: Its nice to meet you all, I'm Danny. Would you mind if we move down the street to the historical Cafe area?
Jason: No problem. But is my outfit glam enough?
Danny: Leather jackets can be punk glam not to worry.
Cass: May I do a arabesque as a pose? I'm a ballerina.
Danny: Of course! We can have you do that one some stairs or a railing.
Dick: Oh! Can I do a Flip?
Danny: Of course!
A week later:
Classmate 1: Fenton!? Are those....Did you do a photo op with the WAYNES!?
Classmate 2: Holy shit. Those are the Waynes. How in the world did you book them as your models?!
Classmate 3: CASSANDRA WAYNE!? OMG IS THIS PRINT FOR SALE?!
Classmate 4: I have money too! Fenton, sell me the Dick Grayson one!
Danny: I have no idea who those people are. I just found them having a bobba tea in the street. Are they famous?
TA: *wondering how the absolute Arkham Jason f-ing Todd is alive*
TA: *trying desperately to explain* no no. You don’t understand. His death was a formative experience of my childhood. We’re the same age. Vicky goddamn Vale covered this!
Danny: *frogblink*
Danny: oh. I don’t watch the news. Not after they blamed me for Christmas getting haunted that one time
I 100% would believe Danny is a "don't trust the news" type person. They report things wrong all the time? They make things up? It's controlled by the local Billionaire that may or may not want to adopt him. The news is a consistent problem. The haunted Christmas was just the final nail in the last coffin he long since buried.
His peers think he might be onto something if Jason Todd is actually alive.
Can we keep her, please? Pull a Wes and make her an acquaintance/friend of Sam's with a really normal name like Lucy or Heather but who goes by something like, "Midnight" or "Agony" or some other edgy goth name because it's as dark as her soul or whatever?
Quick question when people do the Damien is twins with Danny AU I automatically darken Danny because why would I whitewash Damien?
I noticed there’s a lot of white washing with that AU and I’m kind of confused cause yes there are lighter skin people of literally any origin but when Damien first appeared, he had tan skin. The only reason he ever goes lighter is because that current artist/writer is pretty racist.
Also, Damien would have to be born tan because a large portion of the Ra’s base is underground. Like yeah he lives in the hot area. If we were ignoring Talia and Ra skin tone, you still can’t ignore that in order to stay tan while still being inside majority of your life, you have to be born tan.
So I guess my question is when you guys write these AU or are reading them do you see Damien in a pale light or are you tanning Danny?
#Super Danny to me holds such an 'adult' responsibility for someone his age#Danny is only 14 years old and yet he feels like he isn't doing enough to be successful#which would better explain the test anxiety that was inflicted onto him in TUE#Rather than having the teachers literally threaten Mcdonalds on the whole student body#A lot of kids are pressured to achieve things during this stage of life so even if they don't always state it outwardly-#the fear of disappointment still lingers#This is also why I find super danny and fun danny interesting as concepts and not their own characters#Theyre meant to symbolize how Danny's brain works and all the complexities he has to navigate#both as a normal teenage boy AND as Phantom. All at once.#NOT TO MENTION HOW HE CONSIDERED HIS PHANTOM PERSONA 'NOT IN THE FAMILY'#Treating Phantom like hes separate from who he is bc he fears rejection from his parents#you could dig into this short scene all day istg
Constantine and Zatanna accidentally ripped a brief hole into...something. It wasn't the Realm of the Dead, not really.
But they'd done it long enough to see a teen hero in a mech suit go on a suicide mission to fight Pariah Dark.
Their portal flickered out before they could see the kid's death, or try to help.
They were left, instead, to wonder who that hero was. They'd only seen a brief flash of him, but it was only right to pay their respects.
They were a teenager. They were using advanced technology. The emblem was kinda pointy.
Like.
Like a sideways batarang.
Oh shit.
Had Batman lost another bird?
It wasn't much to go on, but it was all they had.
However, Batman didn't act any different. There were no reports of a Gotham hero disappearing (permanently). When they branched out, there were no reports of any other hero going missing that matched that criteria.
When Zatanna used a spell to recreate an exact drawing of the emblem, there was no hero that used it.
So they were left with an uncomfortable reality; they'd witnessed the death of a future hero.
But.
They hadn't seen the whole fight. Maybe the teen had won, against all odds?
They had to find them and prepare them. Give them as much of an edge as they could.
So they waited. And waited. And waited.
And no one using that emblem came.
Zatanna, frustrated, found herself doodling the emblem...right as Superman came up behind her.
"Oh, are you trying to find the Kryptonian House that belongs to?"
Zatanna froze.
No.
No way.
The teenager was a Kryptonian? There was another Kryptonian running around?
How the hell was she supposed to tell Superman that he wasn't the only one left, and that on top of that, she'd seen the future death of the other one?
there ARE instances instances of him doing that, just not nearly as much as we would like.
also rip me i can't fucking find the best instance of this from season 1 where he launches himself of a truck and transforms mid air in a firework of sparks!
Keep in mind it would be much easier for the animation team to animate his transformation from a static pose vs in motion. Time and budget constraints probably also contribute to why there are less in-action transformations.
Danny ♧/♡ tucker ♧/♡ sam is the only way I could ever put danny and sam in the same ship I'm sorry shes so bad for him without tucker also being there she literally kills him she wants him to be a hero so bad. Tucker needs to be there to keep them both from going off the deep end
I mostly agree but I'm putting my fuckin foot down about Danny ◇ Jazz. All of the quadrants are romantic including the aconscupient ones and so many people misunderstand that so I'm crusading about it and correcting it every time I see it
