“The Ghost Dad Incident”
DP x DC Prompt (Humor / Chaos Edition)
It started normal. Which, in Wayne terms, means slightly catastrophic but manageable.
Training in the Cave. Damian threatening to stab Jason again. Cass winning. Tim asleep standing up.
Then the air freezes. Like, actual frost crawling up the Batcomputer.
A glowing guy in a hoodie just phases through the ceiling. Bright white hair, green eyes, whole ecto-god vibe.
And then he tackles Bruce Wayne like a golden retriever finding his long-lost tennis ball.
“ARCHIE! My BABY!”
The family: 😶
Bruce: “Excuse me—?” Jason: “Did he just call B baby?” Tim, already recording: “Oh this is going online.” Damian: “If this is a cult, we’re burning the cave.”
The stranger (still hugging Bruce): “You’re so grown! Look at you! I knew cloning was risky, but—”
Whole family: “CLONING???”
Cue ten minutes of screaming, two fainting Robins, and one very confused Batman trying to process that he’s apparently the clone of a dead teen god who rules ghosts.
Danny just looks at them all, smiling, completely oblivious to the existential crisis unfolding:
“You’re still my favorite mistake, kiddo.” 💚
