Hear me out, DP and DC crossover where Scarecrow is cousins with the Fentons.
His mother was siblings with Jack’s father, and both Jazz and Danny met ‘Uncle Jonathan’ during one of the many Fenton-Nightingale family reunions that happens every few years. Honestly, perhaps it’s what gets Jazz interested in psychology, hearing from her ‘uncle’ about fear and its effects.
And honestly once they start having to deal with ghosts and having had to deal with their parents for years it’s not really hard to talk with their uncle. Crane still doesn’t know how he became these kids’ favorite uncle, or even all of the family kids’ favorite uncle-cousin, but that’s just how the family is.
Really he’s not even the only villain of the family, with both Jack and Maddie being close but not quite, even if they’re definitely mad scientists. Their son becoming a local hero, even if they’re not aware of that fact, is just ironic.
John knows. The two kids told him when they found out that Danny may or may not need to feed on fear now that he’s half ghost, and well he’s the specialist about the emotion so…
At least they have someone to stay with when Jazz goes to Gotham university and brings Danny with her, even if the local vigilantes are concerned as to why Scarecrow attacks have suddenly took a nosedive…
We have all talked about how Jason gets pit rage because of the Lazarus waters being gross ecto, or how his obssession is the Joker and needing to kill him and a bunch of other things,
Yes?
With me so far?
Okay!
Let me give that a twist,
That Pit Rage Jason feels is hunger, specifically a ghosts hunger.
Jason came back from the dead not fully, he's a starving ghost with a malnourished proto-core, until he properly eats it will stay weak and hungry.
How does the Joker fit in all this?
Easy, With the lack of good ecto for Jason to feed and stabilize from the next best option is his murderer.
Consuming that who killed you is very nourishing for a new ghost.
So Jason getting angry with the bats and others when they tell him not to kill the Joker or actively prevent him from even getting near him is like putting all his favourite foods right in front of him and then taking it away from him,
Each time getting worse for Jason, only getting hungrier and hungrier each time it happens.
How would you feel if you were starving and people kept offering you food and then pulling it away before you could eat it?
Confused?
Desperate?
Anger?
It doesn't count as cannibalism if you're not the same

Jason biting the bars of his holding cell like a dog
Dick: "Is it just me or where his teeth always that sharp?"
~
Oracle: "I lost sight of the Joker!"
Jason hunched over with glowing green eyes while drooling: "No worries he's nearby I can smell him."
Other Bats listening on the comms: " ...What the hell do you mean smell ! Are you drooling ?!"

Bats: "Wow Jason sure is getting creative trying to get the Joker!"
Knives ignored Galaxy's presence entirely, dead set on his next meal. Almost as if he teleported, he had ran at Elowyn and tackled her. The two rolled farther into the woods, leaving the three deities and the elf to chase after them.
Knives had pinned Elowyn to the ground by wrapping his hands around her neck. He had already removed his mask, his face completely ripped to shreds, it was a terrifying sight. There was no sign of human emotion, just a pure predator who was out for the white haired elf's blood.
I always thought this approach didnt suit fanart very well. its a little out there. I dont want to create separate styles for my personal illustration practice and this kind of thing. I wanted to somehow merge the two and create a spectrum of personal narrative work to fanart and "for fun and hobby" things.
How do you guys think this compares to my other aftg pieces style wise? At the end of the day I decided to do whatever I want but i am still curious about yalls thoughts and would appreciate some insight!
Everyone thinks Oscar is the most likely to be hangry.
No. You are wrong. That would be Montague. As he’s French he’s used to a rigid meal schedule. Breakfast at 7AM and don’t you dare interrupt his espresso and pain au chocolat if you want to live. Lunch at noon exactly; don’t mess with his salad course, his main course, his cheese, or his macarons at lunch unless you wish for a slow and painful death. Goûter around 4PM, and lord have mercy if he hasn’t had his 4PM macarons and espresso, because Montague WON’T have mercy. Apéritif around 6PM, don’t dare interrupt when he’s got a nice Flowberry fizz and fancy cheese and crackers. Dinner at 8PM, similarly to lunch, you’re dead the moment he has to stand up from his food.
