This idea just hit me after doomscrolling the “danny fenton is thomas wayne reincarnated” tag, plus those posts where he’s just straight-up an AU Thomas Wayne. and I was like… wait. this could actually work.
what if Amity Park is basically an alternate Gotham from Thomas Wayne’s era. same people, different universe and era . Thomas doesn’t get powers, Danny does. that + the HUGE difference in upbringing: Gotham elite vs. whatever category the Fentons fall into (middle-class? working parents? mad scientist vibes? debatable).
universe collapse happens. portals start opening between Amity and Gotham.
picture this: Lucius Fox, minding his business, having a perfectly nice afternoon,
a teenager drops into his living room.
the kid looks EXACTLY like him in his youth
same face, same eyes, same everything—except:
he’s wearing aggressively 2000s clothes
he’s holding some kind of half-broken tech gadget
and he looks like he just got shoved through reality without consent
imagine how insane that is already, but then the kid starts asking where he is, says he’s from Amity Park (a town that Lucius’s computer confirms does NOT exist), and introduces himself as Tucker Foley.
logically? obviously this must be the long-lost son of some woman Lucius doesn’t remember. obviously. definitely not a multiverse thing. definitely not an alternate version of himself.
another portal opens. a young Thomas Wayne shows up, grabs his friend, drags him back through the portal. no explanations. none. just gone.
Lucius Fox is about to make several phone calls
