When Danny left the vigilante life to become a paramedic in Gotham he didn't think he'd ever step back into that scene. Much less in this way, because now Danny has Robin riding along with him in the ambulance every shift he's on.
He didn't think Robin would even remember him after he had helped the kid take care of a hurt and sick kitten at the end of his shift. How wrong he was though because the next night Robin was suddenly in the ambulance saying that he would be shadowing Danny from this point forward. Danny's coworkers were also no help in getting the kid to not do this.
Robin called this an intern opportunity to learn more about medicine and how to treat people. Danny called it a HIPPA violation. What he thought doesn't seem to matter though as everyone is always just excited to talk to the kid. He ultimately decides to just let it go and be the unwilling mentor to the young vigilante.
It really isn't until Danny is being cornered after one of his shifts by Batman demanding to know what he's doing to Robin that he wished he had fought harder to convince Robin to not ride along.
Damian, raising his eyebrow, unimpressed: What about them?
Jon: Well, you know a lot about them so...
Damian: Spit it out, dancing around the subject, as you are, is unbecoming!
Jon: Th-Theres a guy I really really like and he loves dogs, and is even looking into adopting one or getting one from a good breeder, and I offered to help him because I just wanted an excuse to talk to him! But I don't know anything about dogs! I mean, there's Krypto but does he even really count as a dog? I guess also Titus and Ace but I'm only around them when I'm with you, and all I ever do I pet them!
Damian: You can not be serious.
Jon: This dog thing is really important Damian! Apprentantly he couldn't have any pets when he lived with his parents, but there was this wild dog that he would play with sometimes. He, like, really loves dogs, he gets so excited when he so much as catches a glimpse of them! His eyes get all soft and his smile is so-so bright! And he is, like, obsessed with Krypto whenever Krypto is around, its so cute!
Damian, less judgemental: You are serious.
Jon: I just want his experience with his first dog to be perfect, yaknow? Sorry, I know I'm being unreasonable.
Damian: What is he looking for?
Jon: Huh?
Damian: This guy, what is he looking for with a dog? Does he have a specific breed in mind? Any allergies? What is his house like? Does he have a yard or live in an appartment? Does he live near a park or forest if he doesn't have a yard? Does he have any physical limitations? How much time can he alot to grooming? If we're going to help him, we need to know this information so we can help him properly.
Jon, tearfully: Damian! You're the bestest friend ever!*hugs him*
Damian, embarrassed: Unhand me!
Bonus
*6 weeks later*
Jon, postmission: Agh what are we going to do with this beast? Danny is going to be here in 5 minutes! He can't see this thing! He'll freak out!
Damian, pouting: If father would just see reason and let me keep him, we wouldn't be in this situation.
Jon: What even is it? It looks kinda dogish? Maybe it already has an owner?
Beast in question: *towering golden colored animal with a wrinkled dog like snout, massive dog like paws, scales going up its limbs, long, slightly curled fangs, a curly lion-like mane, and a long curly furred tail*
Jon: I don't see a collar, do you?
Damian: No. Perhaps-
Beast: *perks up*
Danny: Hey, sorry I'm a bit early, astronomy club let out early because Michael was stupid and did a back flip off the- *stops as he makes eye contact with the "beast"*
Jon: Uhhh Danny, listen this this is-is uh-
Damian: A statue. I had it commissioned and it just arrived-
Danny: How in all the afterlives did you find a Fu Dog puppy in America!*eyes glittering in awe*
Damian: Fu Dog?
Jon: Puppy?!
Danny: Hi baby! Oh you're just the cutest thing aren't you?
Fu Puppy: *wags and shoves his nose in Danny's hand, having decided Danny wasn't an evil spirit*
Danny: So how did you find him? Fu Dog breeders are suuuper touchy about where they send their puppies, they're almost unseen outside of China! *happy petting the massive puppy, ignorant to the bewildered looks he was getting*
Jon: Oh uh we jus-
Damian: Jon told me you were in search of a dog. My father has a friend that pulled some strings. He was supposed to be a surprise, but due to some miscommunication the puppy was delivered early.
Danny, eyes soft: Really? Jon thats the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.
Jon, blushing: Oh uh it was-it was nothing!
Danny: Oh but this must have cost a fortune! How much do I owe you?
Damian: No need, my father happily payed, it barely made a dent. You can repay us by taking good care of him.
Danny: If you're sure. *laughs as the puppy licks him*
Jon: So, uh, not to be a party pooper but how is he going to fit in your house?
Danny, laughing: Uh, spirit shifting silly! All mythical dogs are able to do it, its how they blend in with their owners when they're masquerading as human or living. Its taught to all puppies as soon as they're old enough to be taught, since its so important to our part of the worlds secrecy.

Fu Puppy: *starts shimmering gold, and shinks down. the light dissipates revealing a tiny apricot colored Shar-Pei puppy*
Danny: See? *happily picks up his new puppy* Its fine!
Danny, dancing as he cleans the kitchen: 🎶~'Cause know that I'm yours, So meet me on the floor~ Dance with me! Move your body baby, this is meant to be~🎶
Dick: *quietly puts his stuff down and leans against the wall with a grin as he pulls out his phone*
Danny, oblivious: 🎶Flowing like the ocean, you're so heavenly! I gotta get you tonight! Baby, why don't you dance with me? Don't tell me that isn't love, I know it's got to be~🎶 *turns around to grab somethings and sees Dick* 🎶Cause when we're on the flo- Ahh! How long have you been here!
Dick: Not long! Sometime around "'Cause know that I'm yours".
Danny, blushing: Gosh thats so embarrassing. Wait- are you recording?! Delete it!
Dick: What?! But you sing so well, I was going to upload it to the interwebs~
Danny: *pales and blushes at the same time, somehow* No! Please not that! I am so bad at singing and if Sam and Tucker ever find out I'll never hear the end of it!
Dick and Danny: *run around the appartment playing keep away*
Dick: Oof! *falls as hes tackled* Okay okay I'll delete it.
Danny: Thank you. *sighs in relief and gets off him*
Dick: I don't know why you're so freaked out though. Your voice is nice.
Danny: Yeah okay. You don't have to be nice about it, I'm well aware of what I suck at.
Dick, frowning: I'm not being nice, you're not like, professional sounding obviously, but you have a nice voice. You should sing around the appartment more often, might liven this place up a little bit.
Danny, hesitant: Maybe, if it doesn't bother you I guess.
Danny, teasing: Disgusting, did watching FernGully as a child teach you nothing!
Damian: I have never watched "FernGully".
Danny: What? Okay, you are coming to my appartment and we are watching FernGully one and two and if you try to get out of this *eyes glow green* I will curse your entire bloodline.
Damian, stunned: For some reason I found that very attractive. Okay, lead me to your appartment.
Danny: Yes! You're gonna loves these movies, I promise!
Phantom: *who was watching the chaos from the ceiling with heavy scrutiny. tilts his head in question at Wonder Woman.*
Wonder Woman: If you would be so kind as to end this? *gestures to the arguing heros*
Phantom, smirking: Of course Wonder Woman, it would be my pleasure! *eyes glow brighter as ectoplasm contorts into chains around him, the chains shoot out, grabs each Justice League member, and yanks them back to their seats, keeping them there no mater how much they struggle*
Green Lantern: Hey what give-
Wonder Woman: Silence! You have been arguing like children for an hour!
Phantom, snorting: Please don't insult my youngest living descendants, they never argue in such a way.
Wonder Woman: Hmm, right you are, even children are better behaved!
Phantom's Room: *trashed and messy with three broken space shuttles, a torn poster, and multiple glow in the dark stars tangled in the carpet instead of stuck on the ceiling*
Robin, Young Justice cowering behind him: We're so sorry Phantom! It was an accident, I swear! We were just-We were just-
Phantom, voice tight: Robin, silence.

Kid Flash: Well, that went well.
Young Justice: *groans*
Artemis: Did Phantom just insinuate, that if it wouldn't ruin the timeline, he would have killed us?
Robin: A moment of silence as thanks to the timeline for saving our lives.
Danny: Wally ssseriousssly, don't try to pick me up! I weigh like 500 poundsss!
Wally: No way! The ground is freezing, and you're burnt out from being in your Phantom form so often. *grunts as he tries to lift Danny's tail* Let me help!
Danny: I appreciate it, really, but itsss not posssssible. I can, well not walk but like ssslither? myssself. I don't mind a bit of a cold floor.
Wally: *deflating* I wish super speed came with super strength so I could help you more.
Danny: You built a giant heat lamp for me, and risssked getting in ssseriousss trouble jussst ssso I could sssee the ssstarsss again by sssneaking me into the WatchTower! You help me a ton! *hugs him and coils around him* Besssidesss, you're like my persssonal ssspace heater too!
Wally: *snorts* I guess I do help more than I thought.
Part 1(I guess)
Bonus
*Later*
Kid Flash: *watching as Superboy easily lifts a truck over his head* You're so lucky.
Superboy: *carefully puts the truck back down* ???
Dick, gulping: Is this-Is this really where we're supposed to meet Wally's new friend?
Roy: This is where the coordinates say to meet him. I'm sure its fine, Wally wouldn't ask us to go somewhere dangerous.
Dick: That's complete bull and you know it!
Roy: Wait, do you hear that?
Dick: Hear what?
*from the dark a huge white tail darts out wrapping both of them tightly in its coils*
Phantom, his torso connected to a 20 foot white snake tail: And who daressss trespassss in my nessst? *forked tongue licks the air showing off sharp fangs*
Dick: Can't breath!
Roy: Can-Can't move! It has my arms!
Wally: Woah Woah Woah! Phantom its okay! They're with me!
Phantom: Oh? I'm sssorry then. *carefully and slowly unwinds his tail*
Dick, wheezing: Wally, what-what the heck?
Wally: Sorry, I got sidetracked and kinda forgot about this meeting. *clears throat* Ahem, this is Phantom. He helped me out on one of my missions! Hes a half ghost cursed to be a Naga. Phantom, this is Roy and Dick, they're some of my friends!
Roy: What?
Phantom: Well, thats the sssshort of it I ssssuppose. Thissss form wasss actually meanr to be a blesssssing but considering I can no longer live among the living in my human form, it ssssure feelssss like a curssse. *wraps around Wally, and rests his chin on Wally's head* Alssso the essss sssound issss annoying. All the sssame, itsss nice to meet you.
Roy: That's all well and good but you attacked us!
Phantom, rolling his eyes: I wasssn't going to harm you. I wasss going to ssscare you and let you go. Itsss not sssafe down here for the living. Wally isss only here becaussse he hasss my protection.
Wally: See?! Phantom's cool!
Dick and Roy: *share a skeptical glance as Phantom nuzzles into Wally's hair in front of them*
Both had meet during so many time travel things to the point that both of them started calling eatch other when they are about to do some changed in the timeline or when they suspect someting.
So it thanks to this that Flash belived in the newly named Red Robin when the kid said that Batman was in the past.
It was also thanks to a mesage sended by the Time Mentor of Phantom that he could only help the kid with some things. Like giving them special meds and distract the leage so the bird could rescue theyr dad.
It was also this friendshup that made Flash aware of the Anti-ecto act and put a end of that before it started.
But now- well they did not have time to do some manbo jambo, save the universe, give a head ups to the cientific and save the anonimus of the kid in the heroes database.
Flash was just about to run to have some extra time to beat up the baddie of the month, when a green note apear in front and made him trople.
"Hey Batman, be ready to do a lot of damage control. Im calling the med bay in advice And DO NOT SHOOT ANITHING THAT COMES FROM A GREEN PORTAL"
And a portal did opened. Out of it comes a mildly injured and glowing with so much emotions Phantom. A hurt and pised our Phantom.
Flash knows instantanly.
And just pointed to the big bad of the week, stoping the teammates that wanted to run and help the kid and or scole them.
"Someone mesed with his grave. The kid is pissed of. And helping him indulge induging on one of his Obsesions can acelerate his healing. That, and he needs to ler oit some fumes."
Later that day, the same task force member who was fist-fighting Bruce Wayne is now holding his own against Batman.
And in a moment of frustration, he yells out the words, "God damnit! First that charade's billionaire and now this! When I first applied to the job, I didn't know I'd have to fight a dirty-ass SUNDUCKER!!"
Batman: ...
JL: ...
Suicide Squad: ...
Oracle over the comms: ...
Task force member #2 to the other task force members: "...When he said that'll he would get real racist to repeat offenders during training. I didn't think this was what he meant."
Task force member #4: "Yeah, he's like the most nicest guy I know."
Task force member #3, taking a sip from his water bottle: "Well, you clearly never sparred with the guy."
"How dare you stop fighting me, you cryptic daddy issues wanna be motherfu-"
Red Hood, shouting from the side: "Hey, wait! You can't insult him unless you're a Gothamite."
Without hesitation, the task force member slapped the Gotham Knight's emblem to his chest with his birth certificate attached to it, showing that he was born in a Gotham hospital, with another form attached to it showing that he renewed his Gothamite passport yesterday evening. (Author's Note: he does not care 🤣)
Danny Fenton to the task force captain: "Should we stop him?"
Task force captain: "No, maybe, uh. Give it five minutes."
Redemption Vald au, but before redeeming, called President Luther and somehow convinced him to make a secret law that it is illegal to adopt one Danny Fenton and one Danny Phantom, and then also somehow got Amanda Waller to make a task force for both identities and to give out restraining orders to the most problematic Adopters.
Vlad just didn't know how much this would be an asset this would be later on, or why there is a live stream of one of the task force members getting into a fist fight with Bruce Wayne.
The justice League never expected to have to console green arrow after she got "bullied" by phantoms son while they said son looked at him judgmentally.
Okay to explain the situation a bit better we'll need to go from the start phantom joined the justice League a few years ago became a good trusted member and all that good stuff but he's also made abundantly clear he's a father and being a father will take priority over his work which understandable.
And that he would rather see this planet burn to the ground then see any harm come to his child. Which concerning but at least he's being truthful (also can't really blame him)
Phantom is widely known for his puns and jokes and ability to distract the villain. Villains all seem to be on good terms with him despite the fact that he's on the other side except for a few that seem deadly scared of him due to and I quote "paternal scariness". Apparently they threatened phantoms family and phantom gave them an example of what would happen to them if they did. Point is the villains have heard of his son and tell others the same.
Normally they would think this is a security branch and tell phantom to be more careful except he doesn't care at all.
In fact he would proudly announced too anyone listening about any of his sons achievements to the point where you actually got tired of listening to it even batsy groaned one time due to how often this happens.
According to phantom his baby deserves the world and he will not shut up about him it gets annoying but manageable.
When phantom receives news that he's going on a world mission he calls the league and asks them to babysit his son while he's on the mission according to him the rest of his family and friends are unable to take care of his son and he doesn't trust anyone else so they were his best chance
Of course they accepted thinking nothing of it surely phantoms would be just as sweet as he described.
They were very wrong
At first phantasmo seemed like a very calm and collected child.
Until he wasn't.
Apparently he in green arrow were having an argument about something and he wasn't listening because phantasmo was a child so said child got aggressive. Verbally very fast
he started listing and critiquing every single thing green arrow did wrong from the moment he stepped foot in the space station got deeply personal theorized about the cause of his behaviors judged him on the blindness , told him straight to his face that a peacock could shoot arrows better than him telling him how with everything being unflattering and unattractive he might also need to grow impressive feathers to have even the slimmerest of chances of getting a mate and even more impressive feathers to stay. Then his idiocy during an argument is he exact reason why people don't want to deal with him.
And according to everyone else who was watching he said even more things which led them to now
Phantasmo is staring at green arrow judgmentally
Phantasmo: seriously? You cry like a baby whose favorite toy got taken away from them because of critique?
Green arrow: *sobbing like 5 year old* YOU SAID A VACUUM HAS MORE EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE THAN ME HOW DOES THAT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ARGUMENT?!
Phantasmo: because during our argument you showed low levels of intelligence emotional intelligence being one of them. I was just pointing it out seeing as it was hindering your sight
It kept happening Phantasmo kept critiquing people with facts and being extremely blunt which led them to a spiral
After that batman decided Phantasmo could maybe benefit Gotham so he brought him with him in the hopes not to terrorize the others. Only to immediately lose him a day later.
He was missing for a week. A week of batman spiraling trying his best to find the kid before anything happened to him and as well as the rest of the league's concerns before phantom came back to murder him.
That was until....
"uh B? Did you take another one in? I think I'm having a therapy session with a 10 year old-"
Turns out he got bored and decided to explore the city and eventually found his way into becoming a black market therapist. What's that you may ask? we may never know.
This situation just kept continuing
Superman took him in? Started a business that could arrival lex luthor's with the motto being "if I can't fight. I'll beat a billionaire with their credit card" which ended up sending lex to the hospital one day.
Green lantern? Tried to hypnotize hal with a lantern that's conveniently green on top of him in the middle of the night chanting some kind of ancient song. He screamed and fell out of the bed
Aquaman? He became an undersea monk. Wonder woman? He became a cult leader. Starfire? He found a interdimensional portal. Zatanna? He almost convinced someone to become food. Cyborg? He made a soup kitchen in space. Found Talia al ghul and tried convincing her to adopt him. The flash? Hit him with a flask
The struggles continued with every new person to take him in.
The league are at their wit's end. The child cannot be controlled in fact that child is controlling them.
it becomes a group project of survival.
The league couldn't wait for phantom to come back.
