Ok so here me out
Now, as you probably guessed im a fan of the danny gets adopted trope and dp x dc crossovers
We've seen de-aged danny adopted by various members of the batfam, super man, and even black canary
So id like to open i new possibility that could even possibly work without the crossover (though it would be a lot less exciting)
I like to propose mr lancer as a possible adopter candidate
In various stores and Headcanons with jack and Maddie salt he has been brought up as someone who would call child protective services only for nothing to happen
So with a newly de-aged and hurt danny clockwork decided to try and find a worthy candidate to take care of his favorite halfa and finds one mr lancer who is moving to a city of your choice because he was offered a job a principal
He give him a visit in him ( and his spouse if he has one) new home and explains the situation and now we have the newest adoptee (adopter?) Trying to juggle having a ghosty son and his new job
And new habits for young danny to pick up
(Now i dont know much about mr lancer outside of what I've read because its been a long while since I've watched this show but i do know he doesn't curse and i think it would be funny for danny to pick up his habit of cursing without cursing but making it space themed)
(Im talking astronauts, planets, stars and constellations)
Can you imagine a little danny stubbing his toe and going "sweet neil Armstrong that hurts" or "oh stars" or anything space related? Or if he's mad at someone and some space names just slipping out and lancer jsut being like "danny!" While the offensive party is just confused and mildly insulted
And depending if its a crossover he is also going to be trying to contact or dodge concerned superheroes
Who knows maybe mr lancer will become a misunderstood Vigilante hunting down the giw so his son would be safe and got on the justice leagues radar
Or maybe the x-man pay his home a visit after one of the students see his son use his power
Or his son being a having the classic trope of protector spirit gets noticed by sheild
And last but not least danny being a smart space cookie entering a science competition for stark enterprises and not only blowing the competition away but also giving off some strange energy readings and having tony take an interest
(I like this one because we could have big brother peter parker 😌)
