I think I've been scammed out of three weeks' salary.

I received a call from the bank, but it seems it wasn't from them after all.

I'm going to the bank tomorrow; I hope to get everything back.

Wish me luck

[mikami1992]

Well, I changed my card and password at the bank…. Unfortunately, the scammers blocked my access to customer service for 24 hours with fake login attempts… now I have to wait to report the money change…

I hope to recover everything… but honestly, I think I'll only get some of it back.

Does anyone know how to get extra money?…

I need it within a month.

[mikami1992]

Well, after 36 hours of struggling to contact the bank's call center, I finally got through…

Resolution… I'll have to pay transaction fees (almost half a week's salary).

The rest is in dispute, and I won't know for another two weeks whether I'll get the money back or if I'll have to pay it to my credit card company.

I'll start looking for ways to raise money, thinking the worst, because it will give me about a month to pay the disputed amount if I don't get it back and have to pay it myself.

(Unfortunately, selling my blood or plasma won't be an option. I've been trying to donate blood for years, and doctors have refused it for various reasons, so no selling plasma or blood.)

Please share, maybe it will reach someone who can help me in some way

[mikami1992]

Well, I'm still waiting for the resolution of the bank fraud transaction… Meanwhile, someone recommended I create a Ko-fi account to raise money…

The good thing is that I already have one, because I got confused at the time, so I just finished setting it up…

So I'm sharing it in case anyone wants to help me with money for a coffee…

And if you can't, please share this post so it reaches those who can.

Meanwhile, I'm planning a raffle for a vinyl record player I own… but even if I sell all the tickets, I'll only raise a portion of the money.

Thanks to everyone who reads this post and has helped.

[mikami1992]

The current situation is worrying.

On one hand, I've managed to raise half the money needed to cover everything (between the raffle and my savings, I've raised about $300 of the original $600). But on the other hand, the resolution of the disputed money is taking forever. The way things are going, I might have to pay it back to the credit card company before I can even see if I'll get it back.

So I'm in a bind. For now, I'll just lower my fundraising goal on Ko-fi.

Honestly, I hope the resolution comes in my favor so I can pay without affecting my emergency funds.

I'll miss my vinyl record player.

Update:

I lost all my money… and what's more, there's even more money to pay in hidden interest on top of the fees.

I seriously need help; the interest is going to kill me.

[mikami1992]

It's been a while since I updated the situation…

In the last update, I mentioned that I received the resolution regarding the disputed money…

And it wasn't in my favor, so I lost the money.

Between that, the transferred money, fees, and interest (they borrowed and transferred money from my credit), I lost three weeks' salary.

The good thing was that I had things to sell and raffle off.

A while ago, I got a vintage-style 5-in-1 record player (vinyl record, CD, cassette, radio, and auxiliary input) at a clearance sale. At the time, it was practically free, which is why I bought it, even though I ended up leaving it in its box for months without setting it up because I couldn't find the time to put it back together.

So I organized a raffle for my music player. If I managed to sell all the tickets, I would not only recover the money I'd spent on the three weeks, but I'd also recoup the cost of the player itself.

But to do this, I needed time, and the interest was growing every day…

It was thanks to a friend (who had been saving for a while for a planned expense) that he used his savings to help me pay off the bank account, preventing the debt from accruing further interest. Of course, he promised to pay it back before a certain date.

So I continued with the raffle and sought donations in case I didn't achieve the full results with just one activity…

And well, the raffle will take place this week. Despite only generating enough profit to cover two-thirds of the money I'd lost (and allowing me to pay my good friend on time), I still managed to secure a return on my investment.

The remaining third will be covered by donations I received on Ko-fi, the sale of some headphones, and my own savings.

But in the end, this will leave me completely broke by the end of the month, with no savings, but no debt either.

Honestly, this is one of the worst things that has ever happened to me financially, in the top five (extortion after a taxi accident is a close second).

So, thank you to everyone who donated and shared.

Gotham’s Baby: Baby Danny Wayne AU

After the whole ‘de-aged, alternate universe half-ghost’ explanation delivered by the Master of Time following a five month year old Danny encasing his entire nursery in ice, Bruce and the rest of the family elected to let Danny being a ‘meta’ public information.

After all, he was still a baby with no control over his powers, it was only a matter of time before he accidentally turned invisible or fell through his crib (which Bruce nearly had a heart attack at).

So making his abilities public was the best decision, but there was something the family hadn’t anticipated.

Gotham City itself is incredibly liminal—it even has its own City Spirit, so baby Danny’s more…inhuman traits aren’t startling to Gothamites—if anything, they celebrate it. He’s the little ghost king (and a Wayne) in a city full of liminal and death corruption. Him showing his little tiny powers is basically healing Gotham; every time he sneezes ice or falls through a solid object, a curse is lifted of the City and while Gothamites don’t know it; they feel it.

Basically he’s their Princess Diana if Diana had magic

Observe:

Baby Danny, eating at a restaurant with the rest of the family: *nom nom nom*

Gunman, bursting in: Everybody freeze—oh! Sorry little dude, I’ll rob this place another day.

Gunman: *waves goodbye to Danny as he leaves*

~~~

Harley: Auntie Harley’s here with gifts!

Bruce: aren’t you on parole?

Harley: parole doesn’t count when it’s my nephew, I have it in writing, here!

Bruce, reading note: “Parole is temporarily suspended in the event of visiting Daniel Wayne” this was actually signed by a judge?!

Harley: *shrugs* he’s Gotham’s baby

~~~

Harvey Dent: *stopping in the middle of an attack on a gala* hi baby! Aren’t you just adorable? Who’s got your nose? Uncle Harvey’s got your nose!

Danny: *giggling*

Goons: *videotaping* awwww

~~~

Reporter: How does it feel to be the most favored person in Gotham City?

Bruce Wayne: Well, I’m very honored to have that title—

Reporter: I was talking to Danny

Danny: *chewing on Bruce’s jacket’s lapel* bah!

Reporter: incredible, absolutely incredible

[leafyeyes417]

Prompt: It worked?!

Danny is in Gotham for college, and during finals month the Joker goes on a spree. After the Joker breaks out of Arkham for the THIRD time Danny in a fit of sleep deprived pique does a bit of research, breaks into Arkham, and swaps prisoner transfers so that the Joker is taken to a prison out of state.

It’s only after finals are over, and he has slept for two days, that he calls Tucker to check on his half brained plan, to find out it worked? Somehow it worked. The Joker is now at a different prison where he has no corrupted guards etc to help him breakout and is now stuck there.

The bats only find this out when their paranoia of “why hasn’t the Joker broken out yet?” kicks in.

Danny when he gets caught: Ok in my defense I was sleep deprived AND without responsible adult supervision. Also my friends are enablers and I regret nothing. DOWN WITH THE CLOWN!!!!!

Phantom: *floats into the Watchtower with a baby strapped to his chest*

Batman: ...Phantom why do you have a baby?

Phantom: Oh, I was summoned last night and some lady sacrificed her baby to me, so I'm a dad now.

Superman: What?!

Wonder Woman: Oh? Congratulations.

Batman: You can't seriously just...keep them.

Phantom: Sure I can, anything thats sacrificed to me is mine to do with as I please. Got a puppy once, her name's Bugsy.

Superman: Do people often get sacrificed to you?

Phantom: Oh yeah, but most sacrifices are adults, so I just let them go back to their mortal lives. I'm working with Constantine to get the word out that I prefer nonhuman sacrifices, like food, or herbs, but its slow going.

Batman: Phantom we can't let you keep the baby.

Phantom: *tightens his hold on the baby and eyes falling into slits* And why not?

Superman: Well, you're a ghost and they're...living. I don't think you'd ever hurt them on purpose, but accidents happen, especially with babies.

Batman: A ghost is not equipped to raise living children.

Phantom: Oh, is that all you're worried about? Then- *transforms into living form and quickly puts on a mask* There! I'm human, problem solved. *happily walks away*

Superman: Did you know he could do that?

Batman: *shakes his head*

Wonder Woman: *nods her head* Phantom has many talents, tis why Pandora looks down upon him favorably.

The term "book of the dead" doesnt really give you perspective to how big a lot of Egyptian funerary texts are.

Imhoteps book of the Dead is 64 feet long.

[somethingusefulfromflorida]

Okay, but a lot of books would be that long if you laid the pages out

[nsomniacsdream]

the average printed page is 6 inches wide. so if a book is 128 pages, its 64 ft long. I dont think I own a book with fewer than 128 pages.

It's honestly not that impressive at all. Fuck Imhotep and his pathetic short book.

DPxDC: Danny Fenton, The Key to Immortality

It’s a pretty well-trodden trope by now for DC heroes to recognize ectoplasm as Lazarus water, but I can’t help but think more villains should be noticing first, considering the collabs Ra’s has done with the more powerful ones.

Some even have government contacts that might’ve notified them if the GIW and their plausible weapon suppliers, the Fentons.

If the Fentons have easy access to Lazarus Water not safeguarded by the League of Assassins/Shadows, I can think of more than a few villains ready, willing, and able to kidnap their youngest son to hold for ransom.

It’d be especially funny if like, every villain tries to kidnap Danny with this plan in mind at some point. Many of them are arrogant to think they’ll differ from the pattern and succeed where everyone else failed.

It’d be a great way for him to start meeting heroes his age that don’t want to kill him too!

-

Lex Luthor & Mercy: We only have to keep you alive until the ransom arrives, not in one piece.

Danny: So I’m sitting there, barbecue sauce on my titties—

Kon: *shoulders shaking with the effort not to laugh as he tries to sneak out of his weekly ‘steal from Lex until he says something’ routine*

[fernthefanciful]

Bruce pressed the palms of his hands against his eyes. He’s usually not one for such an open sign of distress, but he feels in this case it was warranted. And he was having such a peaceful morning, too.

“Did she just write ‘yeti doctor’?”

Bruce’s head snaps up at Steph’s voice, looking once again at the letter on the screen. “Dear Mister Wayne,” it reads, and that is where normalcy ends. “Thank you so much for taking in Danny, I was so worried when he had to escape our parents.” Which is already an extremely worrying sentence. Made even more worrisome with the fact that there is no Danny currently residing in his manor.

His family is in chaos. Tim has three screens in front of him, ranting about living firewalls to Barbara, while Dick leans over his shoulder.

Alfred has lifted a thick three-ring binder out of the care package that this Jasmine Nightingale has sent them, and is flipping through it. Apparently this binder contains all of the medical, psychological, and cultural information needed to make sure that Danny’s species can thrive. Because the missing teen that should be in his manor is not human, but some sort of human/ghost hybrid.

“Father, I think this warrants an emergency meeting with the Justice League.” His youngest says. “There is currently a government agency hunting Cujo and Daniel, citing laws that directly counter the Meta Human Protection Acts. This cannot stand.” Cujo, the green glowing, 10 foot ghostdog that delivered the package and letter this morning by density shifting into the dining room during breakfast. Damian was of course attached.

“Uh, Alfred?” Duke starts form where he and Jason have been emptying the care package, “there’s a huge first aid kit here, but most of it is glowing.” Jason, of course, is turning the high tech laser pistols over in his hands, getting a feel for the handling and grip.

Bruce let’s his eyes skim over the letter again, his eyes catching on words like “Ghost King”, “Infinite Realms”, and “vivisection”. “I know it takes Danny a while to open up,” the letter reads, “so I’m beyond grateful that he feels safe enough with you.” Except he doesn’t, because Danny is not here. Somewhere out on the streets of Gotham is a half dead teenager, hurt and alone. And Bruce didn’t know. Didn’t know any of it until his sister sent him a care package, because apparently this kid has lied to his sister that he’s safe, that he found somewhere to stay.

He doesn’t notice the sudden hush behind him until Jason breaks it. “Is that fucking Lazarus Water?!” Bruce lowers his head back into his hands.

“I will prepare a room for the young master.” Alfred sniffs as his footsteps go towards the elevator. “I’m finding this kid.” Jason answers, leaving towards the lockers “Wait, Little Wing! I’m coming with!” Well, at least Dick can hopefully keep Jason in line. He prays to Rao this doesn’t mean he has to deal with a half-ghost, immensely powerful teen that struggles with Pit Rage.

A small hand lands on Bruce’s shoulder. He looks up into the sparkling eyes of his daughter. “New brother”, she grins.

[fernthefanciful]

From @augundy's tags: #this is very himbo of danny#I approve#though I feel like he probably made up this lie on the spot while on the phone with Jazz and feeling incredibly stressed out and/or in pain#and/or extremely tired#and then he might've forgot about it after

From @geekyrie in the notes: "Bruce's first order of business is finding the teen he's supposed to take care of. The second order of business is most likely to ground him for giving him a heart attack, probably."

---

All in all, Danny’s life is going pretty well. Sure, he’s homeless on the streets of Gotham, but he hasn’t seen a white van in a few weeks, he can phase into gyms to use the showers, and he just found a coupon for a free fro-yo! So, yeah, life is great!

Which is of course when weird things start happening to him. He should have known it wouldn’t last. He’s just enjoying his fro-yo – blueberry, hell yeah – when a car passes him, breaks with tires squealing, and drives onto the sidewalk, coming to a stop uncomfortably close. It’s a nice car though, very sleek. Danny wonders what kind of engine it has, and if someone would notice if he took a look under the hood.

He never gets that chance. Instead a tall man with broad shoulders steps out of the car. He looks mad, and he looks specifically at Danny. Whelp, better keep moving then! Danny focuses hard on the next bite, looking down, and starts power-walking out of there.

“Daniel Thomas Nightingale-Wayne!”

Wait, what? He looks back to the tall man in the suit, and yeah, he’s still looking at Danny. More people stopped at the commotion, aaaaaaand great, here come the phone cameras. Tall man is walking towards him and Danny really doesn’t want to cause a scene, right now. Also the man is familiar. Somewhere.

“Where have you been?” oh, the man is still talking to him, “We’ve been looking all over for you. You can’t just disappear for six days.”

Again, what? “I’m sorry?” He tries, “also, I think you ha-”

“I appreciate the apology, chum, but you’re still grounded.”

“Wha- Grounded?!”

The man, wait – Wayne? Bruce Wayne?! Why would billionaire and himbo Brucie Wayne think he’s one of his kids? Mister Wayne crouches down, not caring about the dirty sidewalk and places his hands on Danny’s shoulders. “Sweetheart,” he starts and Danny absolutely does not melt, nope, “your sisters have been worried sick. Jason is stress-baking, Tim hasn’t slept in three days, and Damian has been – well you know Damian doesn’t show it, but I know he’s been worried.”

Danny is so confused. And now confused and slightly guilty. He doesn’t even know these people! Does he?

“Now come on, get in the car. I think Alfred was making one of your favorites for dinner tonight, and you can call your sister when we get to the manor.” Wayne’s hand on his shoulder is gentle and warm as he guides him, nothing like Vlad’s bruising grip.

“You talked to Jazz?” He asks as he’s deposited into the passenger’s side.

“Oh yes,” Wayne says, with a weird twinkle in his eye, “she’s been waiting to talk to you.”

And oh, oh no, that does not sound good at all.

---

Meanwhile the Gothamites are having a blast. Brucie Wayne full-naming someone only happens when his kids really messed up. Like, Richard swinging from the not-enforced chandelier in Mrs. Plotnik’s mega yacht messed up. Also this kid is obviously homeless. Does Bruce really get empty nest syndrome so bad that he’s now picking up random kids off the streets? The Waynes are so weird.

[mckinlily]

Plot armor but it’s Bruce Wayne’s wealth.

Bruce is one of the richest men in the world. Bruce does not want to be one of the richest men in world.

He starts by implementing high starting salaries and full health care coverages for all levels at Wayne Enterprises. This in vastly improves retention and worker productivity, and WE profits soar. He increases PTO, grants generous parental and family leave, funds diversity initiatives, boosts salaries again. WE is ranked “#1 worker-friendly corporation”, and productively and profits soar again.

Ok, so clearly investing his workers isn’t the profit-destroying doomed strategy his peers claim it is. Bruce is going to keep doing it obviously (his next initiative is to ensure all part-time and contractors get the same benefits and pay as full time employees), but he is going to have to find a different way to dump his money.

But you know what else is supposed to be prohibitively expensive? Green and ethical initiatives. Yes, Bruce can do that. He creates and fund a 10 year plan to covert all Wayne facilities to renewable energy. He overhauls all factories to employ the best environmentally friendly practices and technologies. He cuts contracts with all suppliers that engage in unethical employment practices and pays for other to upgrade their equipment and facilities to meet WE’s new environmental and safety requirements. He spares no expense.

Yeah, Wayne Enterprises is so successful that they spin off an entire new business arm focused on helping other companies convert to environmentally friendly and safe practices like they did in an efficient, cost effective, successful way.

Admittedly, investing in his own company was probably never going to be the best way to get rid of his wealth. He slashes his own salary to a pittance (god knows he has more money than he could possibly know what to do with already) and keeps investing the profits back into the workers, and WE keeps responding with nearly terrifying success.

So WE is a no-go, and Bruce now has numerous angry billionaires on his back because they’ve been claiming all these measures he’s implementing are too expensive to justify for decades and they’re finding it a little hard to keep the wool over everyone’s eyes when Idiot Softheart Bruice Wayne has money spilling out his ears. BUT Bruce can invest in Gotham. That’ll go well, right?

Gotham’s infrastructure is the OSHA anti-Christ and even what little is up to code is constantly getting destroyed by Rogue attacks. Surely THAT will be a money sink.

Except the only non-corrupt employer in Gotham city is….Wayne Enterprises. Or contractors or companies or businesses that somehow, in some way or other, feed back to WE. Paying wholesale for improvement to Gotham’s infrastructure somehow increases WE’s profits.

Bruce funds a full system overhaul of Gotham hospital (it’s not his fault the best administrative system software is WE—he looked), he sets up foundations and trusts for shelters, free clinics, schools, meal plans, day care, literally anything he can think of.

Gotham continues to be a shithole. Bruce Wayne continues to be richer than god against his Batman-ingrained will.

Oh, and Bruice Wayne is no longer viewed as solely a spoiled idiot nepo baby. The public responds by investing in WE and anything else he owns, and stop doing this, please.

Bruce sets up a foundation to pay the college tuition of every Gotham citizen who applies. It’s so successful that within 10 years, donations from previous recipients more than cover incoming need, and Bruce can’t even donate to his own charity.

But by this time, Bruce has children. If he can’t get rid of his wealth, he can at least distribute it, right?

Except Dick Grayson absolutely refuses to receive any of his money, won’t touch his trust fund, and in fact has never been so successful and creative with his hacking skills as he is in dumping the money BACK on Bruce. Jason died and won’t legally resurrect to take his trust fund. Tim has his own inherited wealth, refuses to inherit more, and in fact happily joins forces with Dick to hack accounts and return whatever money he tries to give them. Cass has no concept of monetary wealth and gives him panicked, overwhelmed eyes whenever he so much as implies offering more than $100 at once. Damian is showing worrying signs of following in his precious Richard’s footsteps, and Babs barely allows him to fund tech for the Clocktower. At least Steph lets him pay for her tuition and uses his credit card to buy unholy amounts of Batburger. But that is hardly a drop in the ocean of Bruce’s wealth. And she won’t even accept a trust fund of only one million.

Jason wins for best-worst child though because he currently runs a very lucrative crime empire. And although he pours the vast, vast majority of his profits back into Crime Alley, whenever he gets a little too rich for his tastes, he dumps the money on Bruce. At this point, Bruce almost wishes he was being used for money laundering because then he’s at least not have the money.

So children—generous, kindhearted, stubborn till the day they die the little shits, children—are also out.

Bruce was funding the Justice League. But then finances were leaked, and the public had an outcry over one man holding so much sway over the world’s superheroes (nevermind Bruce is one of those superheroes—but the public can’t know that). So Bruce had to do some fancy PR trickery, concede to a policy of not receiving a majority of funds from one individual, and significantly decrease his contributions because no one could match his donations.

At his wits end, Bruce hires a team of accounts to search through every crinkle and crevice of tax law to find what loopholes or shortcuts can be avoided in order to pay his damn taxes to the MAX.

The results are horrifying. According to the strictest definition of the law, the government owes him money.

Bruce burns the report, buries any evidence as deeply as he can, and organizes a foundation to lobby for FAR higher taxation of the upper class.

All this, and Wayne Enterprises is happily chugging along, churning profit, expanding into new markets, growing in the stock market, and trying to force the credit and proportionate compensation on their increasingly horrified CEO.

Bruce Wayne is one of the richest men in the world. Bruce Wayne will never not be one of the richest men in the world.

But by GOD is he trying.

[ahallister]

I'm now imagining Batman finally breaking down and admitting all of this to Clark in desperation, hoping that his friend can somehow have some insight into how to keep the Wayne fortune from continuing to grow unabated. Clark is initially skeptical, but hey, this could totally be a potential story for the Planet, and he loves investigative journalism, so he tips off Lois and they start researching whether it's truly impossible for Bruce Wayne to lose money.

Meanwhile, Batman has the 'brilliant' idea to just buy up a film studio and not engage in Hollywood accounting chicanery. But he's uninterested in meddling with the production of films, and the public flocks to movies unburdened by executives demanding 'surprise twists' that don't make sense and testing everything with a dozen focus groups before release. Batman is at his wits end when Clark shows up and announces that he's figured it all out, the one way Bruce Wayne can actually spend his fortune without ending up even weallthier.

All he has to do is fund supercolliders to produce and contain indefinitely a single gram of antimatter. And thanks to all of Wayne Industries' green energy projects, that's possible to do without causing massive pollution now, but it still would cost trillions of dollars for something of little to no practical use outside of science. (Using it to power a probe to another star is still science, but also kinda silly when Superman could just fly there even faster.)

[ingridverse]

And then the supercollider research leads to revolutionary technology that makes him billions a year

Clark (Well, duh) "That's correct, yes. And sure thing, ah, Bruce."

Bruce (Whose baby blues are now hard as sapphires): "How- and be honest with me- how do I help farmers to NOT BE POOR?"

Clark (Total bluescreen) "Um. I, um. I'm not sure. What do you mean, exactly?"

Bruce (Carefully folding the WSSF report into quite a decent origami cow): "I can't give them money. And I mustn't loan them money. How do I help them not be poor?"

Prompt: It worked?!

Danny is in Gotham for college, and during finals month the Joker goes on a spree. After the Joker breaks out of Arkham for the THIRD time Danny in a fit of sleep deprived pique does a bit of research, breaks into Arkham, and swaps prisoner transfers so that the Joker is taken to a prison out of state.

It’s only after finals are over, and he has slept for two days, that he calls Tucker to check on his half brained plan, to find out it worked? Somehow it worked. The Joker is now at a different prison where he has no corrupted guards etc to help him breakout and is now stuck there.

The bats only find this out when their paranoia of “why hasn’t the Joker broken out yet?” kicks in.

[sleepybutalrightiguess]

[ailithnight]

I like to think this is one of those things Bruce had been trying to do, legitimately of course, for years. But somewhere between Gotham's corruption, well timed breakouts, and no other prison really wanting to deal with the Joker anyway; every prior attempt to transfer him fell through.

By swapping paperwork, Danny quite accidentally managed to cut through all those problems. The transfer was already happening before anyone knew anything about it. Therefore, it didn't need some corrupt officials to sign off on it; the receiving prison didn't have to be strong armed into taking him; and probably most crucially, Joker had no time to breakout between learning about his transfer and said transfer happening.

I also think it'd be good if Danny didn't even send him somewhere super high security (ie Belle Reve). Those transfer are probably rarer and come with too much fanfare. Instead, Danny sent him to some random prison in, like, Wisconsin* or something. Which, on top of being narratively funnier, actually works out better because it's so far removed from Joker's normal network of goons and corruption. He either has to wait for his normal helpers to get there, or try to build all that influence back from the ground up while being stifled by being under such close watch and having to fight his way to the top of whatever established hierarchy there already is in the new place (again, alone, without his own established network bolstering him).

Either way it's gonna take time. Months and years even. And, once they know about it, time is very useful to the Bats for cleaning house before Joker inevitably ends up back in Gotham. The more of the Joker's network they can root out and clean up, the harder it'll be for him to breakout again later.

Plus, the longer this random prison can hold him, it helps build very strong evidence for Bruce's legitimate attempts to get Joker transferred. No more other institutions arguing they don't have the means to secure someone like the Joker. Security isn't the issue; Exhibit A, this prison did it for years no issue.

*Danny, leaving a voicemail at 3am during his stressed out sleep deprived brilliance: Hey Frootloop! You've got plenty of influence in Wisconsin. Do something to help keep Joker in his new home and I'll go to 3 Packer's games with you every year he's there. Kay thanks, bye! Whoever invented statistics is evil. Evil, evil, bad box of Raisin Bran evil. Where'd my calculator escape to? *Several more seconds of rustling and muttering before Danny actually remembers to hang up.*

[sabrieterrhisken]

I think the idea of it being a smaller, less famous prison would make it more successful because I imagine people would have been really skeptical, bordering on mean about their ability to hold Joker. So everyone involved in the Wisconsin corrections system becomes the most by the book, “rules are rules”, better safe than sorry stickler there’s ever been.

dummy number 1

dummy number two (they’re married)

[cannibalvegan1234]

I have this weird hc of Danny x Sam relationship.

Yes, they dated at 14, but after a while, they realized they're too young for that, and it kinda distended them from Tucker.

So they kinda break up, and when I say kinda, I mean it. They still act like friends most of the time. They start dating someone else, then break up, then start dating again yada yada.

But sometimes they kiss or act like couple (when they're notin a relationship, we don't support cheating in this house), like Danny win a prize so he kiss Sam and hug Tucker, Sam sitting next to Danny and he puts his arm on her shoulders and brings her closer to him.

Jazz calls it situationship Danny calls it bullsh¡.

Between Danny and Sam a deal, if they cross 21 without finding someone else, they will start dating again.

Tucker both flattered and insulted.

Now, years later, when Bruce finds his 16 y/o son who he lost, he has to deal with this sh¡

Danny: *kiss Sam* See you later! My dad will pick me up today.

Sam: See u, D.

Bruce: *in the car, confused* I didn't know you have a girlfriend.

Danny: What? No, Sam is just a good friend.

Bruce: ... riiight

Danny: That's sweet and all, but Sam and I dated for a while, we broke up but still friends.

Dick:... do you want to start dating again?

Danny: Not until 21

Dick: ? Okay.

I kind of vibe with the idea of Tim and Ra's having a sort of grudging friendship built on mutual respect with one another. I know some people frame it romantically but I'm not about that life so I think it's more like that relationship you have with that grouchy old guy in your neighborhood that might be an asshole but is interesting to talk to. Just Tim and Ra's being mutals on Words with Friends, sending vaguely threatening but informative emails and texts with each other and occasionally meeting in person to like play chess or something.

Bruce: Tim, I know I said work on your resume but you can't pad it with false information.

Tim: How?

Bruce: You logged in time with the elderly as community service.

Damian: I told you he was false, Baba. He lies to enter the company, what should he do if left inside. We cannot trust his lies.

Tim: It's not lies.

Damian: More lies.

Tim: And what do you call whipping your granddad's ass at chess every Tuesday at 2?

Bruce: Alfred made Harley give me therapy and Harley said i need to "Heal my Inner Child."

Clark: Bruce you are sitting on the sidewalk watching ants eat a raisin.

Bruce: Yeah.

Clark: How is that healing your inner child

Bruce: ....

Clark: ...

Bruce: My inner child is weird, ok?
