Danny starts using his unique biology to make safety videos teaching about injuries and how to care for them. The realism (despite the blood shown being green “clearly” to fight censorship) is startling and causes not only much speculation about how they managed it, but also praise for being so accurate.
Danny* keeps up a balance of serious tone and humor that keeps a variety of people around. He reminds people at the beginning and end of every video that in an emergency most victims and non-medical will forget all of what he shows and that it’s okay. Medical personnel outside of the situation are the ones responsible for learning and remembering what he talks about.
*(does he use his actual name, his online username, or something else?)
What truly gets him attention, happens during a video a year into the channel’s first video. Just a few minutes in, a girl that looks like a slightly younger version of Danny comes running in excited and then panics. She clearly doesn’t know he’s just demonstrating which makes him have to stop and calm her. Most of the situation is cut out, but after Danny moves on a viewer notices the girl’s voice behind camera calling him “mom”
For Dani, also Ellie, it started as a joke. Soon enough after the reveal to Jazz though, she has the two sit down for a talk about their situation. She makes it clear, gently, how important it is for themselves and the rest of the family to have their feelings out in the open. In a(n at the time) rare moment of seriousness for them both, they actually talk. Danny has always wanted to be a mother, but was afraid of judgement for it as he’s transmasc. Ellie genuinely thinks of him as her mother and really wants to have a mom. She can’t help feeling like Vlad is her father, but she recognizes he’s a bad one. Danny’s been infinitely better so far even when he made mistakes. So, they stick with it. The only noticeable change is their level of affection.
Now, Danny has been blatant about being trans even in public, so it’s honestly unsurprising people start to question the mystery girl’s origins; after the rapid spreading of her address of him, specifically. Surprisingly, the only thing he addresses is that he, his family, and friends deserve privacy. No words to clarify anything beyond a boundary. The discussions of “MG” and Danny’s relationship don’t stop, though they become less prevalent on the platforms he’s active on.

Some people begin digging farther than they should and find a suspicious lack of information and/or amount of resistance. This eventually ends up on Tim Drake’s radar. He finds the channel by chance; is interested, then fascinated, then fixated. Now the man is determined to figure out why Danny has such weird levels of privacy for a- “micro internet” or not -celebrity.
