Danny and Damien are twins au, but a slightly redeemed vlad makes Danny the CEO of Vlad Co and DALV and all his other shell companies. Danny is danny, he got pushed into this against his will and is very overwhelmed by CEO duties, so he reaches out to one of his father's sons, Timothy Drake-Wayne, for advice
-------------------
So, danny definitely knows his heritage in this au. He was the spare to Damien's heir, and while their relationship was strained by the constant competition, they still love each other, even when Danny started to show more proficiency in infiltration and subterfuge than assassination. Damien and Danny have a huge fight before Danny leaves, with Damien swearing to never forgive Danny for his betrayal, while Danny is like "what betrayal??? I just cant bring myself to kill someone outside of self-defense??"
(One of the things I hate about Danny and Damien Twin AUs is this depiction that, just because (usually) Danny is unwilling to kill, that makes him weak and a traitor. You think the medical staff in the LoA are assassinating people? Or the lawyers? He's not useless, he's just not good as an assassin)
He was sent to the Fentons at like... seven? eight? to study how the Fentons are purifying lazurus waters from Jack and Maddie, both of whom are partly sponsored by the League of Assassins. He's also learning more about spying from Jack, surprisingly, because no one would expect him of being a top tier spy. He has the occasional mission as a child, but it's mostly shadowing Jack to learn how to spy.
Danny sends letters to both Talia and Damien regarding updates on his training and the Fenton's research, but after a year of no reply from Damien, it's only to Talia. He's feels super hurt by this, and abandoned by the LoA, but the Fentons are kind and familial, and Talia visits once a year. She's unwilling to risk visiting more often, lest she risk getting the JL or the Spiders attention, but sometimes she even manages to visit on his birthday!
(Meanwhile, Talia starts sending birthday assassins to kill Damien so she can spend their birthday with Danyal. She's a really hot and cold mom.
Talia: You can choose me, and have a birthday dinner. Or you can choose your father and have a birthday assassin. You're choice. )
When Slade blows up the LoA, Danyal is given permanent orders to remain as Daniel Fenton until Talia, and only Talia, brings him back to the League. No missions and only one letter every six months. But when Ra's comes back to life and the League is back in power, Talia... never tells Danyal. Because she's seen how happy Damien is being a normal child with their father and wants that for Danyal too. Plus, she wants to continue to have a good relationship one of her children, sue her bruce.
So Danny is completely convinced that the League is mostly gone other than his mother, her zealots, and knows that his brother is living with their father. and he's... relieved. His brother is safe, and his mom told him their grandfather was avenged, so Danny can just enjoy his life. Which he does.
He sends out his six month report days before the portal accident.
Canon stuff happens until Danny is sixteen and Vlad, the fruitloop, steps down as CEO and strong-arms Danny into becoming CEO in his place. Jack and Maddie (who at this point know [or have always known in Jack's case, adn Danny didn't appreciate his dad using his his poker face against him like that] about Phantom) are thrilled.
Vlad is using his "foster son" (Dark Danny, but in this idea, he's Dante Masters) as an excuse as to why he's stepping down, since Dante needs all the attention he can give as a "troubled youth". Danny secretly hopes Dante kills Vlad in his sleep, but signs the papers away.
And there's so much work.
Danny has some idea of what he's doing (Vlad co is a tech company and DALV is weapons manufacturing, plus vlad gave him a crash course on CEOing). Sam and Tuck even help! But he wishes there was someone who could understand the pain of being a CEO while still a teen. But... his father's son, his brother, is one such person. And even though the other would never know, he really wanted to get to know his other siblings. So Danny reaches out for advice to Timothy Drake-Wayne.
Tim is immediately on guard when this Damien clone walks into his office claiming to be the new Vlad Co CEO. The clone acts nothing like Damien, but he still thinks this Danny Fenton is a league plant.
His paranoia doubles when Damien freaks out and confesses that A) Danny is apparently his twin brother and B) that he's been with the League of Assassins this whole time. Damien, who really doesn't want to admit that the reason he forced himself to forget his brother was because said brother didn't want to kill people, says "Tch. I didn't want to associate with the likes of him, so I put him out of my mind." Tim now believes that he's dealing with a master assassin with a huge grudge against Damien and Danyal showing no signs of malicious or aggression in their meetings only convinces him that Danyal is a master actor too.
Which, Danyal is a master actor. But all that other stuff is just Tim reaching.

You know what would be both Cool(tm) AND Pants Shittingly Terrifying? Eldritch Space Whale Danny!
Except NOT! Because he's not a whale! Just snoozing and Giganto-Fuck-Off HUGE!
Imagine it! Danny. Joint Custody Child of The Ancients Of Time And Space. Space is SALTY AF because their BITCH OF AN EX has used his FUCKING POWERS, AGAIN, to CHEAT. Clockwork how DARE YOU.
You knew he'd be our Son in advance!
YOU SNUCK IN AND STARTING BONDING WITH OUR CHILD BEHIND MY BACK!
YOU [REDACTED]!
Danny? Sitting off to the Side as a Sentient Everything and Nothing made of galaxies and starlight, howls expletives at their Ex, who is being... REALLY snippy back? WOW, Clockwork. I mean, JESUS, man. Danny's from "oh bless their heart" Nowhere, Midwest. And even HE thinks that last one was both backhanded and cold af.
......he should take notes. *continues to eat his popcorn*
Anyway! APPARENTLY, Space Parent has taken him in the divorce. With much huffing. Tucked under their arm Like The Football(tm). And honestly? This is kinda hilarious, so he's cool with it. Byyyyyy~ Clock Dad! See you on weekends~☆!
*Exasperated Time Noises*
It's pretty cool! He learns a lot. Learns he's probably? Gonna be SOME variation of Space Ghost. Might even take over Space's... well, EVERYTHING, should the unforeseeable occur. So obviously, gonna have to learn The Family Business, as it were!
Which?
UNSPEAKABLY HYPED, YES PLEASE.
SPACE AND STAR STUFF! HECK YEAH!
Unfortunately? Still a Halfa. Bleh, squishy need to eat and sleep. Why they get in the way of Hyperfixation? Why no more space dust? Nooooo, don't drag him away from the controls! He can still learn! Sleep is for quitters! Cowards! *whining in Give Me Back My Blorbos, You Monsters*
But, no. He apparently has to "take care of his body" and "not burn out". Eat "real food". A protein bar counts! He probably ate one of those! Give him back his STARS! He doesn't CARE if he sounds like a toddler! That's DIRECT ACCESS TO THE SECRETS OF SPACE ITSELF! He'll BITE, so HELP HIM-! *Is scruffed like a cranky infant being carried off to beddy bye*
Injustice! D:<
But, none the less, body's require sleep. He shovles down his food, washes up, and flops down in his bed. In the nice lil cozy "Safe For My Half Apprentice Who Is Also My Adopted Son" corner. He passes out in that corner. Starts to float, as he has done countless times before, when agitated before bed. Floats OUT of that corner.
That Safe Little Corner.
IN THE CENTER, THE BEATING HEART OF SPACE.
You know... the place ALL OF SPACE connects too. Where Universe Form and Die. The Grand Recycler. Dust to Dust, from the ashes of old, to the creation of new. Where PORTALS are randomly assigned. So that the Omniversal Ectoplasmic Levels may always be balanced at near to perfect levels, allowing free flow of Souls through the various Reincarnation cycles.
Space, of course, doesn't MANAGE the Ectoplasm itself. Nor the Souls! Different Ancient for THAT, but they DO manage the PORTALS. We live in a SYSTEM after all. Everyone has their "departments" as it were. So really, it's quiet... Danny? Honey? Awful quiet back there! You, uh, fallen asleep, Starlight?
*empty room*
(O.O)
*inhale* AAAAAAAAAAA-!!!!!!!
Meanwhile! He be Snoozin'! And Ghostin'! Ghost Snoozin'! Is extra comfy, cause he weightless and got not booooones~☆!
But! He? Is not a child anymore! Has learned to... for lack of a better term, Let Go. To finally ACCEPT his Death. His inhumanity. His Amortality. Death no longer holds him, can no longer let him go. He is... not immortal. He is disowned, by his own doing and his own choice, at his timeless moment of Ending.
When Life let go of his hand and Death kindly offered theirs, he did not take it.
And that's okay.
It took awhile. Talking to older ghosts. Most vague and vast, near formless. Because it's... it's scary. And it's all you know. All, really, you've EVER known. Inherent to your identity, even after you leave that part you behind.
You are "human". "Martian" or "Xy'xeruian", something else, and you never question it. Even when you've left behind everything ELSE. Your name, your eyes, your history and skin. Yet you fly around and pretend. Still alive, still human.
But is that YOU?
Or just the form you found your start in?
And like? It's okay if it IS! Sometimes, yeah, you ARE. You look down deep and find a "don't know what you were expecting, buddy" sign stapled to a mirror. But more often? It's that last hurdle. The final step in Letting Go.
Everyone mourns at their own pace.
And they are the ghosts of who they were.
It helped. Mourning for the kid he was. Who was fourteen and wanted to be an astronaut. Who died and will never have a grave. The longer he exsists, for he can't technically be called Alive, the more painfully young that child seems.
It was okay.
To cry for Danny Fenton.
Then? To let him go. Let his memory, be memory. And his Past be the grave that child rests in. Loved dearly and remembered, but no longer binding his soul.
He doesn't have to wear that face anymore.
No tributes to the Dead.
He got? Kinda... BIG. Like REALLY big. Spiraling, serpentine, cracking ice, and burning galaxies. Like a fourth dimensional dragon, of ice and stars, somehow forcing its way into a three dimensional space. Atop it all, between two vast, impossible horns? Made of glacial ice coating the warping hearts of black holes, who's shape themselves seem to shift in unknowable ways? There burns, like comet trails, with super novas, compressed to decorative gems beneath glittering morning frost, a Terrible Crown.
He? Thinks? He MIGHT have wings.
He can't tell.
Because APPARENTLY he's a fuckin tesseract! Oh, no, sorry. He might me a Zone DAMNED PENTERACT!!! Is THIS what he gets for hanging out with Clockwork all the time? He just liked the quiet! Now his "true form" is PHYSICALLY PAINFUL for most people to look at!
Clock Dad WHAT THE HELL?!
(You see, now, why Space broke up with him? An ASSHOLE)
So! Danny stays, usually at least, in his "Hi, yes, I am Normal Human Man" Ghost form. But NOW? Now it PINCHS. Because it's TOO SMALL. But hey, that's fine! It's not like he has an ingrained habit of transforming when super tired and stressed! To float sleep for Maximum Restfulness(tm).
Ha ha!
Why does that feel like foreshadowing?
BECAUSE IT IS!
Danny? Snoozing! Space? Has LOST THE BABY! Portals? Have done a Jood Gob in Portalling, something they are vaguely sure they are supposed to be doing! Yay them! They have no brain cells but still enjoy helping! They moved a thing! That's helpful right? Yay! Probably!
And on DC's planet Earth?
They? Just choked on their fuckin coffee. One moment? La dee daa~ oooh~ look! Stars! Deep space! Oh, hiiii~ Watchtower! The NEXT? *every alarm in the building starts LOSING ITS SHIT* Giant World OBLITERATING SHAPE completely takes up the screen.
From near PLUTO.
There are NO WORDS TO DISCRIBE HOW FUCK OFF BIG THIS THING IS, MR. PRESIDENT. It will eat our nukes and LAUGH. Call! EVERYBODY!!!
Obviously? Superman. I mean really, OF COURSE Superman. Frankly, all the Supers. Because we would like to KEEP having a planet, thanks. Only? The more reports that come in? The more everyone is getting "oh fuck. This is a Workd Eater" vibes.
A massive, massive, Sleeping Titan of a Planet Destroying World Eater.
That MIGHT BE MAGIC.
*highly stressed Everyone noises*
And WORSE? Superman? Can't TOUCH it! Oh sure, at FIRST he could! But then he apparently pushed too hard in just one spot! And it felt POKED AT. So now, after flicking superman HALFWAY BACK TO EARTH to make him stop? No one can physically touch it!
But! There is hope!
Because? The creature is GREEN. Bright, luminous, Lantern Green! And Earth's Lanterns have already sent for back up. Combined? The were able to move a... hand? Paw? Something. But! With the combine forces of several nearby sectors of Lanterns? They promise the power to either relocate the creature or at least hold it in orbit until FURTHER forces can be deployed!
They refuse to harm the creature until it proves actively hostile, as it could have been seeking a place to nap and chosen one inconvenient to established planetary life. Frankly? Earth doesn't CARE where you relocate the giant Eldritch Space Dragon. Just NOT IN OUR BACKYARD, PLEASE.
....YES WE ARE SURE! We don't CARE if the scientific community of our planet is begging you to set up an area for them to place an "observation satellite"! No giant Eldritch Space Dragons in our solar system! It might WAKE UP!
Naturally, about half way THROUGH this Highly Delicate Operation?
Danny Wakes Up.

The one where Bruce is the asshole (again)
So! We have a typical story where the JLA finds out about the Situation in Amity.
Whichever way they find out doesn't matter, but either way they end up sending Batman to do a threat analysis and review of whether this requires their attention.
And while there, he runs into a Kid who obviously needs to be saved from his Abusive Home. Look at him, he's far too thin, his grades are horrible, he has many unexcused absences, and he has bruises hidden under his clothes.
Even after figuring out that Danny is Phantom the local Hero, he thinks Danny needs to be saved from his Parents.
I mean, it's plain to see! They Hates Ghosts with a Passion, negelct their son very often, shoot at him nearly every day, and are probably the ones who killed him in the first place!
So, with no input from Danny himself, Bruce calls CPS on the Fentons and uses his Wealth to expedite the process and avoid the actual Investigation. (I mean, why would you even need one? It's so obviously a bad home!)
The Fenton's are arrested, and Bruce reveals that Danny is Phantom to convince the Courts that they are horrible people for shooting at their own son, and that they should be locked up (ignoring the horrified looks on their faces, probably cause they were living with a Ghost for so long, thats probably why).
He immediately offers to adopt Danny, even when Danny vehemently refuses his offer. He knows that Danny will come around to it, he's doing this for his own good. He still thinks his Parents were good people, and not thr Villains they really were.
Meanwhile Danny's life has been completely uprooted thanks to the self-righteous machinations of an Adoption Crazed Fruitloop! And not even the usual one!
Sure his parents were often busy with their work, but they Always set aside time to hang out with their kids and make sure they were okay. They never abused him, the neglect was only for like a month or two when the portal before they got their act together and apologized for it, and (most importantly) THEY DIDN'T KNOW he was a Halfa when they shot at him! They only found out when the ASSHOLE revealed his Identity in Court!
And Danny is Extra enraged by that part. The Adoption Crazed Fruitloop had revealed his secret identity for the ENTIRE WORLD TO HEAR!
He would never be able to live a normal life anymore, even if he managed to get away from the Moron who caused all this!
Bruce Wayne was a Villain in his eyes.
He ripped him from his home and from his family (basically kidnapped), revealed his identity to the world so he was forced to stay with him for fear of the GIW, and spun the whole story so that it looked like he was the Good Guy in this!?
It was official. Danny Hates Bruce Wayne, possibly more than anyone else in the World.
And that's a High Bar.

Submitted Prompts #146
Due to Shenanigans, Clockwork has sent Danny to the DC universe, specifically the Wayne mansion. Danny doesn’t know much, but figuring that Clockwork has his reasons, he decides to haunt set up base in this place until Plot happens. And if he gets to mooch off of/cause problems for a billionaire in the meantime, well…
Meanwhile, Alfred is gone for a brief yet well-deserved vacation, Bruce is extremely distracted by a particularly difficult case, and when Dick comes to the manor for a visit in the middle of the night and finds a black-haired blue-eyed teenager making himself a sandwich in the kitchen, he just assumes that Bruce has adopted another kid.
Poor Damian is about to have an aneurysm because not only is something haunting the house, but nobody believes him. It only makes it worse that the ghost keeps taunting him and can’t be stabbed.
For his part, Danny is having the time of his life being a little shit.

The Prince's
So, I hadn’t originally planned on doing anything for Dani, but this post from @aziraphale-is-a-cats-a-cat got me thinking about things, and I ended up writing this.
So, while the men of the Justice League are trying to figure out who Dani is a clone of, Wonder Woman takes one look at the black haired, blue eyed, mischievous girl and can’t help but see herself in her and claim, “Mine.”
The rest of the League try, but there’s no arguing with Diana now that she’s set her mind on something, but Bruce and Clark have kids and know it’s not as easy as it looks to take care of them.  She’s only ever been the “fun aunt;” she’s never had to get into the dirty, exhausting parts of parenthood before.  It escalates to a full-blown argument, but if Dani has any say in it, she’d rather chill at Wonder Woman’s place for a while.  It sounds better than staying in some gross cave or ice castle, and space isn’t her thing (the same way it’s Danny’s), so she’d rather not stay in the Watchtower.
Arguments about clones and custody continue over the next few weeks, not helped by the fact that Dani is still pretty unconcerned about the whole situation.  Or, she was unconcerned until Vlad showed up.  He’d decided enough was enough and it was long past time he collect his property.
It only takes a single scream.
Diana bursts into the room, fist connecting with Vlad’s jaw, and he’s knocked across the room.
“Don’t.  Touch.  My child.”
She proceeds to hand his ass to him on a bronze platter before he flees into the night, bruised and bloody.
Now it’s Dani’s turn to latch onto Diana’s leg, shouting “Mine!”  This is her new, kick-ass mommy and no one else can have her.  Dibs!  No take backs!  Well, it’s settled, now.  Diana is officially Dani’s mom, and no member of the JLA can stop it.  She scoops Dani up in her arms, and before she’s even out the door, she’s already telling the other Amazon’s the good news and making plans to take Dani to Themyscira to meet her γιαγιά Hippolyta. 
The two work on figuring out family life, and all’s good for a while.  Dani’s got a (relatively) stable home life and is quickly adapting to life as “Danielle Prince.”  She likes that the name sounds similar to Diana’s, like it was on purposeful choice rather than a cheap knockoff of her original’s name, and she’s getting a lot more comfortable with it.  Bruce, thoroughly defeated and resigned to put away the adoption papers, helps her enroll is a good school and finds tutors to catch her up on the years of schooling she didn’t live through.  (This includes Jason Todd, who has volunteered himself as an excuse to hang out with Wonder Woman more.)  Louis helps her get legal paperwork and documents for Dani (something she helped do for Kon).  She makes friends with Damian and Jon.  And she’s just as skilled as Danny with language, so she’s picking up Greek rapidly.
Since Diana’s adopted her and she’s gained an army of superpowered babysitters, Dani is finally starting to feel comfortable enough to share some information with the League.  It’s not much, but she lets them know Plasmius is the one who cloned her, and her last name used to be Fenton.
Oh, no.  Between those colors and facial features, Clark has a pretty good guess at which Fenton family she came from.  Still, the family is enormous, so he doesn’t know which Fenton exactly was cloned, but the family reunion is this year, and wouldn’t hurt to give Dani a bigger support system.  Would she and Diana like to come?
Vlad, meanwhile, has recovered and is pissed.  After shadowing Wonder Woman from a healthy distance, he finds out she’s supermodel Diana Prince.  Plasmius may not have been a match for Wonder Woman, but billionaire Vlad Masters is more than capable of taking some supermodel down a peg or two.
So, he approaches Diana at work, telling her he knows who she is and that he wants his “daughter” back.  His “minion” might not have been a match for her, but if she refuses to comply, he’ll ruin her career.
And she laughs.  Laughs right in his face.  Loudly.  Because she knows he’s bluffing.  A billionaire and supermodel isn’t anything new as far as the media is concerned; it’s a cliché.  But a deadbeat billionaire dad threatening to steal back an illegitimate child from an abandoned single mother?  After years of not paying any child support?  The media would eat something like that right up.  Something that could drop stock prices and ruin political careers.  That’s something anyone would be desperate to keep hushed up and out of the media spotlight, and she’ll drag him kicking and screaming into said spotlight if he comes anywhere near her daughter.  Or maybe the media would prefer to know the real story about his illegal cloning?  After all, that went over so well for Lex Luthor. 
Vlad leaves, and Diana makes a few calls.  First, she makes sure Clark heard everything in that conversation and sets him on the warpath against DalvCo if need be.  She gets Bruce up to speed, and if there’s one thing he’s in the best position to do, it’s to hit Vlad where it really hurts: his wallet.  Vlad was already a pretty scummy businessman.  Wayne Enterprises didn’t need much of an excuse to cancel or back out of business deals with him.
But Diana is still shaken up by the event, even if she’s not going to let it show.  Right now, she wants to send Dani away to Themyscira behind a wall of Amazons where she knows no one will be able to touch her, but Bruce and Louis talk her down.  Dani’s finally settling into a normal-ish life, and uprooting her now will not help her, and if push comes to shove, trying to whisk her away will not look good to the courts.  Louis knows a great lawyer, and Bruce is willing to foot the bill.
For Vlad, that did not go as expected at all.  He hadn’t expected her to know Danielle was a clone, and he doesn’t want Danielle to be public knowledge.  However, he has no intention of getting lawyers involved; she’d be expecting that.  No, he has something far more insidious planned.  It’s been decades since he’s attended one, but the Fenton Family Reunion should be coming up soon, and as far at that family is concerned, once a Fenton, always a Fenton.  She’s prepared to fight lawyers?  Well, Let’s see how she fares against an army of angry grandparents and disapproving aunts demanding that his poor child be returned to him once he sets the family on the warpath.

My Hero Academia x Danny Phantom crossover where Danny finds himself in the mha world unexpectedly, but vibes with it since, for once, he fits right in. he finds a pro hero to adopt him, gets accepted to UA easily, he gets to learn to accept his "quirk" as part of himself, all that fun stuff.
meanwhile all for one's been trying to convince his son Izuku to turn to a life of Crime, which Izuku's been having none of (he keeps a spray bottle on hand at all times to retaliate whenever the villain's bothering him).
when All for One sees Danny for the first time his eyes just visibly dilate. White hair, green eyes, stupidly strong quirk? He's perfect (aside from his pesky human side tying him down; Afo may or may not be plotting to... "remedy" that, at some point).
-
AFO: You know what Izuku? You don't want to be my son? Fine, I've found a new and better son candidate instead. You're welcome.
Izuku: Why am I offended
-
despite everything, Izuku feels a little miffed (though try to point this out and he will deny it) at being replaced so readily. Like, yeah, he hates his biological father, but he'd like to think he was at least prime son material, right?? I mean he has One for All and is in line for becoming a top ten hero once he graduates!
this spawns a rivalry between him and Danny (which Danny is barely, if at all, aware of; he's too busy catching up on lost sleep now that he doesn't have to fight crime anymore). Danny meanwhile is just wondering why he's cursed to always have weird old guys with superpowers trying to adopt him, no matter what dimension he's in.

I have come up with a crossover prompt that is somewhat inspired by someone else’s prompt but I can’t removers who it belongs to specifically
So Danny Fenton, Marinette Dupain-Cheng, and Damien Al ghoul are all born as al Ghouls. Marinette and Damien are twins with Danny being the prodigy older brother. Danny should be about 4 years older than the twins. When Marinette is still with the al Ghouls her name is Athanasia al Ghouls
Damien is born to be Danny’s spare just in case and Marinette was an unwelcome surprise for everyone in the League except for Danny. Danny ended up being the best assassin he could be in order to keep his mother and grandfathers attention off of his younger siblings as much as he could, but it didn’t always work. As they all got older Danny and Marinette remained close, but Damien ends up believing the teaching of the League while heartily like in canon. Meanwhile, thanks to their bond with each other Danny and Marinette remain suspicious of the league.
In an attempt to keep his siblings safe and give them a better life Danny tries to run away from the league of assassins with the twins coming along with him. At this point I would say Danny is about ten and the twins are about six. Since Damien is still brainwashed he stabs Danny in a way that all of the siblings believe to be fatal and then gives Marinette a change to return to the league. She refuses, and he returns alone. Since both Danny and Marinette believe Danny is dying, Danny tells Marinette to run and to live a life outside of the Leagues beliefs. She does so and ends up hitch hiking her way to Paris while after avoiding the assassins sent after and ends up being adopted by the Dupain-Cheng. But, before she does so she pushes Danny into a river so the Leafue can’t have his body. Danny ends up surviving all of this but he loses his memories. He is rescued by the Fentons who are in the Middle East on a ghost hunt and ent up adopting Danny.
The person who decides to write with this prompt if anyone ever does can pick how the siblings end up reuniting, but I am going to put an option down her so I can continue.
So the years end up passing and Danny, Marinette, and Damien end up living their canon lives. Then one day the Justice league finally has a break from all of the rouge battles and Alien invasions to go through their inventory of calls together. Then they discover that some of the calls that were ignored absolutely should not have been. One of which was Paris. But not Amity Park, because no one believes ghosts could be real. The person who did the ignoring is forced to answer for it and the Justice league is forced to come up with wats to enter themselves to population that do not want them around in any way, shape, or form. So the Justice league decides that if they can’t get anything done in costume then they will have their civilian identities go into the identified city and help that way.
The problem is that Damien was assigned to Paris, and Marinette still thinks that Danny is dead and at Damien’s hand no less. So there is plenty of angst to get from there. Marinette refuses to have anything to do with the monster that killed her brother even if he was once her brother as well. She refuses to believe that a little time spent with their father could change him that much. Meanwhile, the batfamily wants newly discovered sister to let them help her and her city. Also Adrien is not an an ass in this and is dating Marinette. I do not care about her relationship with the rest of the Akuma class so set it up as you see fit.
Meanwhile, Danny wants to find out about his past. The only reason why he was able to keep up with the remade of fighting ghosts and the GIW was with muscle memory he couldn’t remember getting. He was getting more and more stressed until one day he made a wish when he knew he shouldn’t just to know where he came from because he was so tired of everything. He ends up in Paris where he gets a front row seat to Marinette and Damien arguing about his muder. He also ends up getting a splitting migraine from his memories coming back.
Damien and the bats as well as Marinette are looking forward to reconnecting with Danny. However Danny only wants to reconnect with Marinette due to the aforementioned murder attempt and ignoring.
I do not want an easy reconnection between the estranged members of the Wayne family I have been ranting about here. It is fine if they connect eventually but I want I to take time and effort. Please.
Feel free to take whatever bits and pieces of this print you like to write about if you so wish. However, if you do write something with my monster of a print please provide me with a link in the comments do I can read it.
Thanks

Danny and Jazz get adopted by Harley Quinn, Pamela Isley, and Waylon Jones after the Fenton Adults accidentally forget about their kids after a science convention in Gotham. Jazz is ten and Danny is six, this uses your version of young Danny in which he can safely eat anything.
Danny and Jazz develop differently in Gotham with a loving trio of parents to guide them through life in Gotham, the Batfamily cannot comprehend how to kids raised by three supervillians can be so normal (by Gotham's twisted standards).
Also for this idea Harley is married to both Pamela and Waylon which is fully legal in the court of law, Harley is the glue that ultimately keeps their family unit together.
KILLER CROC! KILLER CROC! KILLER CR- *somebody slaps me*
Whoo! Ok, sorry, he's such a fun villain. Here we go!
It was less Harley, Waylon, and Pamela adopting them and more Jazz and Danny adopting the trio.
Danny pretty much latched onto Waylon. Literally. With teeth. Waylon thought it was hilarious, brought the gremlin home, and bam! another kid was riding on his back the whole time and he didn't notice.
At first, they try to find their parents, but the kids don't want to leave. As in 'causing potentially deadly shenanigans' don't want to leave.
And you know what? They can respect that. Waylon falls first. Not only are these kids Not Afraid of him, the little biter won't leave him alone. He shares Waylon's food (people don't like to get within 5 feet of a guy named Killer Croc when he's eating for a Reason), and he somehow accidentally starts teaching Danny how to hunt in the sewers and abandoned buildings.
(Does Danny get a taste for human flesh in this? Probably.)
Jazz likes the human mind, she's insatiably curious, and so she gets the nickname of Harley's little duckling. (Changes to Red Swan or something badass later, but she keeps the goose/swan/duck in her name because those are Scary Birds) (ooh or maybe The Cassowary)
Danny gets a nickname too. Maybe Gator-Bog or something?
More under the cut!
Despite Waylon's insistence that Danny is adopted, they all believe he's his biological son because they have witnessed Danny: bite the Joker's nose off when he got too close, eat a sewer rat, nearly bite Tim's fingers off (luckily he was wearing heavy gloves), hiss like a creachur, and he also sets off Damian's 'dangerous animal let me pet it' alarms.
Danny can eat everything because he's contaminated by ectoplasm, so there's also the reflecting eyes, sharp teeth, and weird strength.
Batman returns Danny to his 'dad' at least once a month. Keeping Danny out of Shenanigans is pretty much a full time job, so he's a lot less of a frequent bat-villain lately.
Jazz, meanwhile, seems perfectly normal. This leads to the batfam kidnapping her at least once a month for several years. Hilariously, when Danny is cleaned up, he gets confused for Damian until he opens his mouth leading to multiple accidental kidnappings.
By the time the Fentons find Danny, the batfam is just cackling. "That kid? Go ahead, pick him up. Just count your fingers after."
By the time they find Jazz, the batfam is no longer laughing because they had some weird ghost netting that managed to hold Gator-Boy.
At some point, Constantine arrives and continuously tries to persuade everyone that Danny is a ghost.
Damian is the least kidnapped member of the batfam, despite being the youngest, because kidnappers have accidentally mistaken Danny for Damian before. The ones who managed to keep their lives (Waylon is never happy about people kidnapped either of his kids), and their fingers/noses/ears (Danny has and will happily rip a kidnappers face off) spread the rumor.
When Danny actually, finally dies and becomes a halfa, because ghosts look like how they see themselves, he turns into a ghostly version of Killer Croc.
Hilariously, everyone STILL believes Constantine is wrong. That's no ghost. Clearly, that's a were-crocodile.
Danny is still a hero! Sort of. He takes a bite out of crime- literally.
Vlad tries to kidnap him. It does Not Go Well. For Vlad. Danny, Pamela, Jazz, Harley, and Waylon have a great time.
"That's a ghost!" "Yes, Constantine, Plasmius is a ghost, we know." "Danny is too!" "Leave sleeping were-gators lie, honestly"
Damian and Danny regularly blame hijinks on the other. "Damian, who beat an abusive zoo owner nearly to death?' " Gator-boy, most likely." "Danny, who rescued 200 people from Mr. Freeze?" "I heard that one of the Wayne kids was there."
OR
Alternatively for Vlad: realizes the Fentons abandoned their kids like they abandoned him and becomes the weird, slightly concerning uncle. Teaches Danny all about being a halfa, but also has cloned him.
"You cloned my son?!" "It was an accident!" "There are 4 clones!!!!" "Oops?"
Constantine breaks down into tears because there's now 6 ghosts in Gotham, and nobody believes him about 5.
Danny, the were-gator. David the were-skeleton. Don the were-Frankenstein, Michael the were-dinosaur, and of course Dani the were-shark.
Vlad's 'children' go trick or treating as sheet ghosts to Constantine's house every year because it's always hilarious.

Who's ready to feel pain again?
Here's an angsty eldrich horror prompt to make you cry <3
Au where Danny is blind and Damians younger twin. He was raised basically being told he was abandoned by his mother for his blindness and that his brother was healthy and happy with her. Meanwhile Danny's life was a living nightmare. No one wanted to adopt a blind kid in a small city like Amity Park, so he stayed stuck in the crappy little orphanage with neglectful caretakers. He hated this place and everyone in it, though he had no doubt his life would be much better if he hadn't been blind.
Danny was killed when a drunk driver purposely ran him over for something as stupid as ableism. Unfortunately, dying as a person with a lot of sorrow and angst in his heart inside Amity Park basically ensured he would become a spirit. That, or it had something to do with the Fentons expiramenting on his corpse.
No one could have known he would be so powerful though. Or that he would be able to "see" after his death. He soon became obsessed with finding the woman who abandoned him in this tiny city in the middle of nowhere and making her pay.
First, he needed a lair. He found out from research -aka possessing his mothers ninjas that felt like her and by extention, himself- that his father was Bruce Wayne- the Batman, and the first time in forever his heart filled with want.
He wanted a father. Someone who was kind and caring and who would protect him. Someone who would want him in turn.
He wanted brothers who would play with him and tease him and teach him him how to be like them.
He wanted sisters who would stand by him and hug him when he had a bad day and help him get away with things he wasn't supposed to be doing.
He wanted a family. The family Talia had cheated him out of. The life Talia had cheated him out of.
So he picked a mansion. A horrible dilapidated old thing, literally half falling apart. One pulse of his core transformed it into a billionaires dream. Everything was pristine as the day it was built. The gardens outside changed from weeds and grass taller than he was to beautiful paved garden paths, forever in full bloom.
This of course drained his energy and he fell asleep, never taking notice of the "For Sale" sign out near the gates
Needless to say, once he awakened he was not amused to see a couple unboxing thier belongings and taking over his home. He just wanted to scare them. He didn't think throwing heavy boxes across the room into thier heads would kill them, but it did. He killed them and there was no going back.
It was only a few hours later that he discovered whoever he killed within his lair would become a ghost.
A weak ghost fully under his control.
So he continued killing the people who moved in, but was sure to always give them a month to move out, signing a warning on thier calenders. Some left. Most didn't though, and became lesser ghosts.
His obsession with the picture perfect family allowed him to develop the power to trap any one person in a painting, but only one person per canvas and he had to have a full view of thier body and he has to do that double L thing with his hands and line them up in the center.
Once he lures his mother home with a mysterious letter addressed to her mentioning her League he wastes no time trapping her and hanging her portrait in the grand entryway.
He did the same with his Father, inviting Bruce Wayne and his wards to speak about someone committing corporate espionage in his company. Danny didn't actually know what that was but it sounded important, and the end goal wasn't to fool them but to get them here. Sadly nothing seemed to go as planned. First Jason snuck into the mansion as Red Hood a week before the planned meeting time and saw something he wasn't supposed to. Namely one of his victims. So he ordered the spirits to pin the startled Jason to the wall as Danny trapped him.
The painting came out better than expected. You could tell he was startled even with his helmet covering his face simply by his body language. The multitude of transparent arms coming through the wall to pin him made the scene all the more haunting.
The bats grew more concerned with each day that passed with no word from Jason and as the day on the invitation grew closer they begin preparing to go in groups. One group goes as civilians and the other sneaking about as vigilantes and trying to find Jason while Alfred and Barbara stayed behind to keep an eye on them and the mansion respectively.
Cue them arriving at the mansion and being forced to play real life Pac-Man and free thier kin from thier paintings while avoiding getting trapped in one themselves.
Eventually one of them discovered they could actually use the furniture around the house as weapons and Danny couldn't phase through it and they told the others about it so they didn't have to keep relying on Jason's unexplained ability to punch ghosts.
Eventually they manage to temporarily defeat Danny and escape the mansion. It was so hard on everyone listening to him sob from where he was pinned on the ground, begging them not to go. Promising to be the best little brother, the best son, he promised to be good.
Bruce took it the hardest. He had failed another of his children but he needed to get the rest of his family out of the sprung trap before the weaker spirits dug Daniel out of the rubble and the mansion is pulled back into that pocket dimension and captured them again. They had been here a while and he was fairly certain his family could go for a round 14 but he wasn't sure they would last beyond that.
So they left. But Bruce silently promised himself he would come back for his son. He kept repeating it over and over in his mind like a mantra to block out his sons desperate cries as they left him behind.
Needless to say the ride back to Gotham was mostly silent as his children processed everything that happened.

So they left. But Bruce silently promised himself he would come back for his son. He kept repeating it over and over in his mind like a mantra to block out his sons desperate cries as they left him behind.
Needless to say the ride back to Gotham was mostly silent as his children processed everything that happened.
So, Ra’s Al Ghul hears from Talia that her son -no not Daiman, the blind one- is now an extremely powerful being that reeks of something similar to the pit.
This caught Ra’s attention, thinking that whoever could effectively catch Talia and trap her is someone worthy of notice. Even more so when he finds out it’s the failure that was cast off the League because he was blind.
So, Ra’s gets Talia to confirm any information she has of the boy’s abilities, and the most notable one was his ability to cast anyone into a painting by making a frame with his fingers.
So Ra’s has this whole plan in mind of how to get the boy to his side. By taking advantage of the boy’s young age and his emotional instability, by pretending to be this kind and concerned grandfather figure that was desperately searching for his long lost grandson for so long.
Ra’s Al Ghul doesn’t really have a sense of danger when facing Danny. Because if it comes down to it he can beat him.(Due to dipping and recovering in the Lazarus pit for decades, Ra’s Al Ghul has acquired the ability to harm ghosts, he also made it the same for his sword.)
So Ra’s goes over and plays the whole, kind and concerned grandfather card. Claiming that his daughter has prevented any attempts at locating Danny. And Danny, being emotionally vulnerable because of Batman’s escape and his breakdown, instantly believes Ra’s and starts to resent Taila more.
So at first he tried to trap Ra’s in a picture frame, claiming that he can stay with Danny forever this way. Leading to Ra’s stopping Danny from forming his frame and fighting back the weaker ghosts with ease, and manipulating Danny even more to get him to come with him. Claiming that he can get him what he most desires and that he loves him too much to just stay in a painting unable to hold his grandson.
It works, and so Danny leaves with Ra’s to the League of Assassins.
Now, Ra’s doesn’t tell anyone about him having Danny, not even Talia(As she is part of his mental manipulating material and can’t let the meet lest they form a bond) and no one else knows until later.
With the time that Batman is fully prepared and wants to take his 10 year old son back home to the manor to give him all the love and care he can and then some.
Only to find the lair empty. No signs of life, not even the weaker ghosts that Danny used last time to trap and keep them at bay. This leads to Bruce spiralling thinking that he was too late to save his youngest son and thinking that if only he was faster none of this would have happened.
 Cue over to Ra’s insulting Danny and telling him that he’s lesser. In hopes of lowering Danny’s self-esteem and making him rely on only him and no one else. If Danny cries, Ra’s holds tightly onto a part of Danny’s body and tells him to be quiet.
If Danny snaps and tries to harm Ra’s, he lets himself be hit enough that he can bleed. Then switches back to the kind and concerned grandfather persona and plays the victim card, saying that ‘I’m only doing these things because I love you”’, “Why would you hurt me? I’m just doing what’s best for you” ex cetera, ex cetera. He also says such things while giving Danny physical affection like a hug and the like, making it strike harder that it’s Danny’s fault and that he should have harmed his grandfather in the first place. As he is the only one that loves him.
Danny(being a literal 10 year old) has no choice but to believe Ra’s. Since his mother abandoned him, never cared about him and stopped his ever so kind grandfather from finding him(lie).
His Father never cared for him. He left him alone under a pile of rubble while he desperately begged for him not to go, taking along the children that he  actually loves with him.(bonus points if Ra’s told Danny that Bruce knew where he was but never did anything about it, even though all the evidence suggests that Bruce is a family man)
The people of Amity Park never cared about him. Hell, one of them even killed him.
Only  Ra’s, no. Only his grandfather is the one being in this world that cares for him and only him. He won’t abandon Danny like the rest of his so-called ‘family’ right? All the while Ra’s is gently telling Danny the words he wants to hear and nudging him onto the path where he resents everyone else and would be only faithful to Ra’s and Ra’s alone.

A Wish is Worth a Thousand Words AU Prompt
Tw: injury and brief mention of dissection
---------------------------------------------------------
This is another late night 4am au prompt rant so please excuse any typos or improper grammar cause my brain is so very soupy but I've had this concept in my head for months and thought I should share
In this au Danny and Dick are brothers separated at a young age most likely due to the Graysons just being unable to take care of another child at the time so Danny ends up being put up for adoption. Dick is the older brother but was young enough when Danny was born that he had no memory of ever having s brother.
Eventually Danny is brought onto Dick's radar while he's still a Robin. Maybe some incident occurs where Bruce wants to look into the Fentons or something which leads to the discovery and Dick is absolutely devastated that he never got to know his brother. So he does the only rational thing. He books it to Amity Park and slowly tries to work up the courage to tell Danny that he's his brother. With his research and steak out he discovers how terribly unsafe the Fenton's home is and wishes he and his brother were never separated lucky for him and not so lucky for everyone else a certain ghost genie hears this wish and grants it.
Now that they've never been separated Danny is one of vigilante's of Gotham by his brother's side. He and Bruce are really close due to processing the trauma of their parent's deaths in similar ways and life seems happy for them.
However Clockwork is scrambling. Without Danny becoming Phantom the timeline is doomed. So he has to get to work remedying the situation Desiree caused. Clockwork manages to rescue the Sam and Tucker from the previous timeline before they are completely erased and strikes a deal with them. Assist him in getting Danny to become Phantom and they get to stay in this timeline and live out their lives in peace instead of getting destroyed.
Sam thinks the task is simple enough find Danny, work up trust, tell him the situation and he's sure to help. But they stumble across a problem. Danny is doing well timeline. He's happy and healthy and loved without constant threat of dissection or getting attacked by those who should be protecting him. Sam doesn't have the heart to ruin that for him. Tucker on the other hand would feel bad but also it's for the greater good right? So they spend their time planning and learning things about this Danny. They pose as students in his school and become his friends. They also befriend Dick aswell. Slowly but surely they devise a plan to tell him but it actually never happens. Danny is injured in a fight one night and Clockwork uses this to his advantage taking the kid with amnesia and dumping him in Illinois. Sam is pissed but clockwork says its for the best and doesn't give her a chance to argue.
So Sam and Tucker continue their lives in Gotham. Meanwhile this timeline's Sam and Tucker befriend Danny in Amity and Danny becomes Phantom.
In Gotham Dick is left absolutely devastated. He won't rest until he finds his baby brother and brings him home safe and sound. But more and more time is passing and things are seeming less and less hopeful. Eventually tho Dick discovers an article about Phantom and what does he see? Sam and Tucker with this ghost that looks like his missing brother. But how? Sam and Tucker are here in Gotham with him. How are they in Illinois? Only one way to find out he goes to Illinois.
In Illinois he bumps into them and casually talks with them and they have no memory of him, but they definitely are Sam and Tucker. Things are getting weird and not adding up but then bam ghost attack! Eventually this leads to Robin finding Phantom injured in an alleyway and they talk. Robin helps Phantom by patching him up and tries to figure out if this is Danny which it clearly is!
The rest of this fic would probably be brothers getting to know eachother again, confrontations with Clockwork and Sam and Tucker and learning to accept what had occurred and manage time along with reconnecting with Bruce aswell. All in all lots of room for angst and found family stuff :D

I saw that you wrote a drabble on my ask and I loved it. It was so well written and Taehoon's personality really carried through.
I do have another idea for a time loop and it does involve Taehoon again, but also with Johan and Daniel.
It would probably take place at about the end of the God Dog arc where Johan is abandoned and fighting Gun.
Little Daniel is there (but y'know, like tall, buff , post training, etc.) and he's seen Johan at the taekwondojang here and there and he knows that Taehoon has mentally adopted Johan. So he subtly makes a call during the fight.
Just as Gun is about to knock Johan and Zack down after Zack shows up to help, Gun gets kicked in the face. Again.
After this, I guess the 2 of them would fight and Yeonwoo, and Dowoon (who tagged along to see who the guys who's been flirting with fighting Taehoon is) and they take Johan to the van. Johan gets promptly adopted by Seong Hansoo.
Meanwhile, everyone wants to know who this pretty gremlin is who's fighting Gun and has Gun smiling. even thoguh he's scolding him. - especially when he finds out about Johan's situation
Vasco : Johan's brother is still flirting with his boyfriend. Who knew Johan had a brother?
Zach :*confused*
Daniel : grinning because he's about to cause mayhem
Jiksae : filming in the background
Well, this also turned out a bit long haha.
Achievement Unlocked!
Child Acquired!
Hansoo looked down upon the two similar boys, one of which was his, and resisted the urge to pinch the smaller's cheeks. That was a feat in of itself, since Johan still retained a small portion of his baby fat, making his cheeks look extra-pinchable.
That was it, he was adopting him. And if he came with an adorable dog, who was he to separate them?!
Johan fit seamlessly into their little family. He was baby, after all, and both Taehoon and Hansoo adored him. They never really stopped babying him, but knew he had his own life and let him do his own thing most of the time. All in all, things were peaceful.
Then came the phone call.
Tae was hanging out with 'daddy issues #1' and 'daddy issues #2' when his phone began ringing incessantly. Annoyed, and having half the mind to just tell the person on the other side to fuck off he picked up.
"Taehoon" Danny's hurried tone sounded through the speaker before the brown-haired boy could even open his mouth, "Uh, you need to come here. Johan's in trouble!"
No other words were needed, Tae hung up and began sprinting toward the location of his brother's phone. That had been one of the conditions of letting him continue on with God Dog, that he would keep his location visible to them at all times and call if he needed help. The last part was near impossible for the proud boy, which is why both he and his father had insisted on the location bit.
The taekwondo prodigy skidded to a stop before the scene that greeted him, Yeonwoo and Dowoon panting a little behind him. His eyes zeroed in on Johan's fallen body laying on the bloodied concrete, before shifting onto the man looking down upon him with his hands in his pockets.
"Oh no, you don't!" He mumbled, rushing towards him.
Gun felt a sudden sense of dread wash over him before his face made contact with the asphalt, hard. Deja vu was one of the only things registering in his mind before he got his bearings back. He turned to look at the attacker, a large smirk stretching on his lips as he caught sight of the familiar mop of brown hair.
"Taehoon~" He practically purred, dodging an incoming kick.
"Satan's secret lovechild." The boy replied deadpan, socking him in the face.
"It's so nice to see you again."
"Can't say the same." His tone didn't change despite Gun's sultry voice.
The two continued exchanging hits while the others watched. It didn't look like they were going to be slowing down anytime soon, so they were content with just watching the show. Yeonwoo and Dowoon in particular were egging them on while simultaneously fighting over ship names. Daniel was nursing the two childhood friends' wounds the best he could while sneaking glances at the two fighters. He didn't want to miss anything important, but Zack and Johan were still bleeding and he had to deal with them first. Nonetheless, he secretly joined Dowoon and Yeonwoo in cheering for the brunette once the two began showing signs of waking up.
"Gunhoon!"
"Taegun!"
"Gunhoon!"
"Taegoon!"
"What the hell is going on?"
They paused their bickering turning to the now-awake dog-lover and gave him a shrug before resuming their conversation.
"They're fighting over ship names," Danny informed him, slipping over to check on the still-sleeping boxer before facing Johan again. "You might as well get comfortable. Something tells me they're going to be at it for a while."
The boy nodded dumbfounded, before leaning back down next to Zack. He was out like a light, causing Danny to coo and take pictures of him sleeping. He was sure Taehoon was going to thank him for them later, and it would probably be enough to bribe him to go easier on him during training. Daniel could only hope.

Warnings; mentions of threats, lots of angst. We are getting real close guys!! Omg!! Please continue to read at your risk, as I said, lots of angst.
“The Secrets of Gotham-Unmaksed”
Chp. 30
 During the ten days before the funeral..
Bruce’s POV 
 Bruce had paid a lump some of money to get Danny’s adoption paperwork through, he was sick of waiting and just wanted Danny in the safety of his home. It was either that or he was going to have a rant and rage episode with the people that let him go on his own outside with a janitor. Even though in the end Bruce knew the janitor which was the goon that saved his life was kinda a good guy, that didn’t change the fact that the caretakers at the shelter were reckless. And deep down he was grateful that the process for opening his own orphanage was almost through.  
 Soon all his boys at the shelter would be safe at his orphanage. Bruce dedicated his time to also train Y/n for physical fight activity, making sure she knew how to take a hit and give one too, for the first few tries he always knocked her on her ass, but sooner than he thought his face hit the mat before he could think to make the next move. Also he worked very hard on trying to change Strange’s chemical to make the antidote. The bad thing was that it was a small portion, he didn’t know how powerful or useful it could be.
 Y/n’s POV
  Y/n focused on Danny mainly, she was having Alfred take him to school and picking him up, always was on time never a second late. Like how he did when he would take Y/b/n to school, now he did it for Danny.
 Once Danny was home Y/n kept him busy with homework and Saunders liked to have Danny around him. Teaching him how to solve simple puzzles and brain twisters, sharpening his mind skills. Which Y/n could say Danny was developing well, it was like he was a mini detective. It took two nights to be there at the Manor when Danny had found out Bruce was Batman. But he swore with every bone he could name in his little body that he would never tell a soul, and up until this day he’s stuck to his word, or his pinky promise that Bruce insisted he’d do. Y/n in the meanwhile in the daytime when Danny was in school or when he was fast asleep on her chest, she would look through her fathers diary and journals, and she came to the conclusion that he was a lot like Bruce, a total different man in the night, trying to fix his daytime mistakes with heroic actions at night. She also came to find out why she never came close with her mother, but it turned out that she never wanted kids, and that Y/n came into their lives by accident, but through reading the journals Y/n learned that her mother told her father that if they kept her he’d do most of the raising, hence why she was a big daddy’s girl and exactly like him in so many ways. When Y/n would take a break from all the reading her mind would circuit through the plan that she was trying to mentally prepare for. This mission most definitely scared her, but not enough for her to back down or give up.
  RedHood’s POV
 During the meanwhile Y/b/n’s mind was being trained like for a killer and asset. He got better as each day passed and they wouldn’t let a second pass without drilling into his head the new identity they gave him. They only thing that kept his mind around the fact that he was indeed once someone else was his dreams. He dreamt about his distant and fading memories. But they were always cut short for they would only give him a small amount of rest or sleep. Little did Jason Todd’s old self know what his mission for the future would be and mean to him.
  The day of the funeral...
Bruce’s POV
 Bruce dreaded today, but unfortunately it finally came. Y/n left the manor early in the morning after Danny had left for school to go do what was her part of the plan. When Alfred came back from dropping him off he helped Bruce fix his tie as he prepared to attend the funeral.  
  Bruce fidgeted with his cufflinks enough for Alfred to ask him in a worried tone,
  “A penny for your thoughts Bruce?”
 Bruce shrugged his shoulders as he put simply,
  “I’m not sure.. about any of this. But, but it’s already too late to back down, especially now that Y/n is on her way to put it to work..”
  “Y/n is a smart one, she’ll be careful and cautious. Her mind isn’t the mind of a single, lonely girl anymore, but of a mother and wife to be, making her choices be thought of twice before being executed.”
  “I know. But that still scares me.. what if she gets caught before hand? Or one small mistake messes it all up leading us to disaster? What if-“
  “What if you just be optimistic for once and just go on with out the what ifs? Please.”
  “Fine.. the ceremony starts at 6 in the afternoon.. but I’m going to arrive an hour earlier to be with Gordon and the Mayor.”
  “Very well, for now help me run this antidote one more time to make sure it’s actually ready, yes?”
  “If that’s your only way to keep me from leaving that door to go after Y/n then yes.”
  “It is.. now let’s go to the cave, Greg is already starting the process for us.”
Alfred led Bruce to the cave and soon occupied themselves with the antidote, and as well as preparing Bruce’s Batsuit making sure it had extra protection and stealth. While working on his suit he looked over to the empty spot where he had hung Y/n’s suit, she was out there right now wearing her suit getting in her place for that night.
  ‘Please be safe out there Y/n.. you need to come home. You have me, Danny.. Y/b/n, you have a family to come home to, you have so much to lose. Make the right choices and go according to our plan, don’t deviate, or run.. just come home.’
  Y/n’s POV
 Y/n had gotten into the GCPDHQ without being seen by going through the ceiling vents, and she was able to break into Gordon’s office, sense she had seen that he had gotten his personal office, because he didn’t have a partner to sit out in the open room with. Seeing a picture of her in her nice uniform on his desk made her heart squeeze for Gordon, but she wasn’t here to see his dusty office, but instead to go through his emails to see what Mackenzie had told him about her casket, like where it was going to be before the ceremony, so she could go see it. Few clicks here and there and soon she was reading the message she had been looking for,
  ‘Don’t worry about Y/n’s casket.. yes I haven’t found the body like you keep on arguing with me about, but I’ll take care of that. But if you need to so desperately know about it, it’s going to be in the building behind the Gotham City Hall, where the Funeral Ceremony will be held. It’s in the back room. There’s nothing for you to see about it it’s empty, but in case the Mayor comes to you first about it before me there’s the information about it.’
  ‘Bingo! That’s where I need to go then, the building behind GCH.. then he has the balls to say that the casket is empty, when you god damn know well Mackenzie that you have the cash and drops in it for your trade for the fake evidence you had the feds process to frame me. But sucker it’s not going to go any further than you have planned.. you’re going down. Now I need to go.’
  As Y/n deleted her recent activities on Gordon’s computer she heard his voice rumbling in the distance as he as usual argued with the fellow officers there, she heard him clearly say,
  “Yeah! I don’t understand why Mackenzie won’t let me go with the feds to the official burial in D.C. which is the place where she actually comes from. They’re going to bury her next to her father, and I wanted to be there but they won’t let me go. So that’s why I’m pissed off!! Now leave me alone!”
  Y/n quickly closed the computer and jumped from his desk to the vent where she climbed out of the office, and just as she closed the vent Gordon opened his door and slammed it harshly before sitting at his desk propping his elbows on the table as he held his head sighing loudly. Y/n looked through the vent and saw he distraught he looked, then she heard him whisper to himself as he cried softly,
  “Y/n if you’re alive just tell me please.. I can’t do this, not without you kiddo. They make it impossible, while you didn’t.”
  Y/n slipped off her mask as she felt her tears come down, she so desperately wanted to tell Gordon in that moment that she was stuck in his vent alive and well, but part of the plan was to not tell him, for his own safety, making Y/n quietly crawl out of the building without making a sound. But her only flaw was that as she jumped to the vent a small paper that Danny had written for her earlier that morning had slipped out of her pocket.  
  Danny that morning had drawn a cute picture as he ate breakfast and gave it to his mother before leaving, and as she left the Batcave in her suit Y/n had put the letter in her pocket as a reminder that there was someone there to come home to, someone to fight for. But now she left that behind on the floor of Gordon’s office and she didn’t even know it.
  Gordon’s POV
 All the passed weeks had been terrible for Gordon, he was overloaded with paperwork and cases, only because Mackenzie didn’t want him to involved with Y/n’s case. But he either way tried to meddle in when and where he could, even though every time he was met with a dead end. He made time that day to attend the funeral with the Mayor and Bruce Wayne.  
  So he was at least glad for that, though it didn’t change the fact that he knew Y/n’s body wasn’t in the casket or anywhere around them. As he sat there and thought about it all his phone rang and the Mayors name flashed on the screen, making him pick it up immediately.
  “Mayor?”
  “LT Gordon, just wanted to confirm you’ll be there for the speech tonight?”
 ‘Damn forgot I had to write one down!-‘
 “Y-Yes, I will. I’ll arrive around 5:45.”
  “Perfect, thank you for this Jim, and I’m once again very sorry. But we all got you ok?”
  “Thank you ma’am, I’ll see you there.”
  “Likewise LT.”
 Gordon hung up and got up from his chair, and that’s when he foot step on the paper that crunches under his feet,
 ‘What the hell is this?-‘
 Gordon thought to himself as he picked up the little paper and saw what it was,
 ‘A kids little drawing? Wait, is that little Danny’s signature at the bottom? Thank you for being my mother? Why would he write that? How did this get in? And the drawing... that looks kinda like- is that supposed to be Y/n?... no.. it can’t be.’
  Y/n’s POV
 After passing by high security successfully Y/n found her way inside of the room where her casket sat, it was beautiful she thought,
  ‘Well damn, that is one good looking casket for a fake death.. Wha-wait.. why the he’ll is there a lock on this thing? Right, cause of the fucking money inside. Well how am I supposed to get in-‘
  “you.”
 That sudden whisper coming from an uninvited guest had Y/n turning on her heel towards the noise in a heartbeat as she drew out a knife that pointed directly to their face,
  ‘That’s the guy that saved my life...’
   Y/n though tried to sound intimidating as she said in a low but harsh whisper,
 “Back off or you’ll regret it.”
  The goon shook his head no as he replied in a much calmer tone than hers,
 “The code is the day your father died, the month, date, and year.”
  Y/n couldn’t believe her ears as she shook her head in disbelief,
  “You’ve got to be kidding me.”
  “It is.. try it. I wouldn’t lie to you.”
 She looked at him waiting to see a hint of false play in his body language or anything else, but instead he stood still like a statue, causing her to ask,
  “Why are you helping me, why are you helping us?”
 Without missing a beat and in one breath the silent man replied,
 “I lost my family to this guy too, my three kids and wife. I’ve had a chance all my life to stop him but just couldn’t do it with a sane mind, you can.. now try the code.”
 Hesitantly Y/n messed with the lock to get it to the date of her fathers death, and as she turned the last number to the right year, the lock flicked open, making her sigh in relief of getting it open but to disgust as well that they had had the audacity to use such a date for the code.   
  Y/n then said thanks but when she got no response she turned to see that she was once again alone in the room,
  ‘I wasn’t hallucinating right? What the fuck? Why-why does he keep showing up at the right time to help me? Who is he?’
  Without wanting to waste time on these confusing thoughts for these confusing actions Y/n opened the door for the casket to see the lump sums of money and packages of drops in display,
  “Hoooooly shiiiiit... that is a lot of crap.. I must be worth quite the pretty penny.. ok-“
  Part of her plan was to take a hidden recorder and camera and stick it on one of the dollar bills and packages of drops, to catch the entire deal for the trade. Catch them red handed with evidence. That was one part of the plan at least. In mere seconds she was able to put it in a place here it wouldn’t be seen right away, and once finished she closed the casket, locking the lock and began to tip-toe out of that place. 
  ‘Huhhh... that was the hardest part and it looks like I was pretty easy to do.. now to wait at the church, until the ceremony is over. Then Bruce would be by then in his suit and we’ll be on our way to the sea wall, where it’ll all come down.
  Bruce’s POV
 The time had already come for Bruce to leave, he packed his suit and everything he needed for that night into the trunk of his black Corvette. He bid goodbye to Alfred and Saunders as he fixed his cufflinks,
  “Take care of yourselves, Saunders you remember your part-“
  “I do.. I do. Al will stay with Danny here and I’ll be around when it’s time. I got your guys’ back. Now go before it’s too late.”
  “right.”
 Bruce lowered his gaze to the floor as he walked to his car fiddling with his hands, he grew more nervous as the time passed,
  ‘Its soon all going to happen.. everything. Every lie that has been masked in Gotham will finally be in the light, unmasked.’
  Gordon’s POV
 He said he would arrive about 15 minutes before the ceremony, but he instead decided to be there a whole hour earlier, to look around, and get to the casket that Mackenzie spoke about in his email, but when he arrived the casket was not in the back room anymore, making him scowl at himself for not getting there earlier,
  ‘I should’ve come earlier, they already took it.. damn it. I wanted to see if anything was inside of it. That means they have already set it up at the funeral home.. fuck.’
 Gordon left immediately and rushed to the place, he felt like he knew something bigger was up, from Mackenzie to Y/n, he just couldn’t put it all together yet, there was to many things all messed up and everywhere. As he drive away the rain began to pour more violently then usual, the meteorologists said it would probably rain the entire day, making it more downing then it should’ve been. Soon he finally arrived and saw a few cars parked outside already, and amongst theirs was whom he saw as Bruce Wayne’s car,
  ‘Oh thank God, at least someone with some kind of sense of mind. Though he silent and introverted as heck, but I need that, the silence over all this noise of chaos. Let me go approach him first.’
  Gordon made a point to kinda jog towards Bruce who was getting off his car and shrugging his large black cloak on putting a large black umbrella over his head. What Gordon didn’t expect to see was the calmness in Bruce’s eyes when he finally got to him, the eyes that usual held some kind of drowning worry, or just overwhelming sadness were just different today. Only increasing Gordon’s suspensions,
  “Good day Mr.Wayne, I need to talk to you.”
  Bruce shot him a raised brow look as he asked simply in that usual low voice of calamity and shyness,
  “everything ok?”
  “I’m not sure, come with me.”
 Bruce’s POV
  Bruce looked around as Gordon guided him away swiftly, making sure no one would follow to eavesdrop, and now they stood at the corner of the building towards the back as Gordon asked,
  “Is Y/n alive?”
 Bruce got cottonmouth and could only muster the words,
  “what-“
  “Mr. Wayne with all do respect I know you respect your privacy and of those around you over all but I need to know, for her safety.”
  “LT-“
  “Gordon I was looking for you!! Oh I see you’re already here Mr.Wayne.”
  ‘Of course you Mackenzie had to show up! And interrupt a conversation I wasn’t ready to indulge in. Fucking loser.’
 Bruce could see the annoyance and slight fury that mustered on Gordon’s face as he told Mackenzie,
  “Yes, I was just debriefing the young man about today’s ceremony, and how the Mayor will address it all.”
  “Oh alright, well why don’t we start getting in, everything’s seems to be ready.”
  “Fine, Mr. Wayne will you follow me please?”
  Bruce shook his head subtly giving his answer as a ‘yes’, but once they were pretty distanced from Mackenzie Gordon whispered loudly enough for only him to hear,
  “We’re not done talking Mr.Wayne, but for now stay close and don’t go anywhere.”
  “Fine.”
 Once inside Mackenzie and a few officers took Gordon away as to talk about things privately. So Bruce stood alone as he saw the beautiful casket in the middle of the front of the room, with flowers decorating it beautifully, Y/n’s picture in her dress uniform for the PD was on display as well. Bruce looked at the picture and could only think to himself,
  “This is for your father Y/n, and for you too.. I can’t believe this son of a bitch Mackenzie pulled this all off as he convinced a whole city that there is actually a body in that damned casket, when he knows well, that he’s afraid for his life, because he never found her. I pulled her out of the river. After he made her go in. Hold it- is that- damn you William Kenzie, my parents murder in the flesh.. if only, if only.. I could kill you right here. right now.’
 The Mayor came from behind Bruce as she patted his back gently,
 “Mr.Wayne, it’s an honor to have you here, we’ve opened the doors so early guests will arrive on time, please take a seat wherever you please. No pressure.”
 Bruce nodded his head and muttered,
  “Thank you.”
 He then walked towards the front bench and took a seat on the edge, he figured that if he stayed seated he’d become invisible and no one would bother him, plus, he just wasn’t about to run into William, whom he hated with a full on passion, amongst the others he couldn’t stand too. So there he sat and stayed.
  Y/n’s POV 
  From the top of the building where the ceiling was glass Y/n sat on a large statue that was there, and watched everything through her brothers X-noculars come to place, a lot of people had showed up but she came to realize that it was mostly the press and annoying paparazzi, making her frown to herself,
  ‘It’s not like freaking Britney Spears died, if y’all could just take the paparazzi cameras down just a notch? Damn.. oh, there’s Bruce! Awe my baby.. he looks so small- oh fucking hell, you William of all people should be the last one to even be here, especially around Bruce, who knows your dark, and horrific secret. Awww.. Gordon, my boss, jeez he looks so sad, ughh.. I hate seeing him like that. After everything he’s done for me, and I just left him to dry out on the secrets of the city. I’m going to need his help after all. I can’t take the whole justice system on my own.. I think I’m gonna have to improvise a couple of plans in and get back up-‘
  “Y/n?”
 A familiar voice called to Y/n by name even though she wore her disguise suit, meaning someone saw through it all and knew her either way. Making her gasp and turn to look the face she had been dying to see,
  “Y/b/n?”
  It was her brother, or whom she called her first son, he stood there in the worst shades of black and blue on his adorning face, trembling as if some battle was going on inside of his body, but as he looked at her he remembered her, but it was beginning to fade, making him cry desperately,
  “Y/n you have to help me-“
  “I’m coming baby I’m coming!-“
 Y/n jumped off the statue she stood on and began to walk to him carefully over the glass as he stood a few feet away from her, he began to say as she got closer,
  “I know you-“
  “I know you do honey, I’m almost there-“
  “They already injected me-“
 “That’s fine, It’s going to be ok sweetheart-“
  “No Y/n you dont understand, once the serum runs through my body completely I loose total control of my mind and body. I’m on a mission, I’m here to kill Bruce inside the funeral-“
 Y/n stopped dead in her tracks as now he was an arms length away, she eyed him curiously as she read his eyes, the familiar round eyes that once held happiness and innocence, but now they held a void but honesty, so then Y/n asked,
  “Then why did you come to me? How’d you know-“
  “I’d thought I’d find you here, so I came to you first because I need you to tie me down or something- Agh!!”
  Y/b/n clutched his side as he yelped in what seemed pain, Y/n reached out to him finally touching him as she said,
 “Ok ok, come on, how much longer until you fully convert-“
  “In about 30 secon- AGH!”
  “Sh sh! It’s going to be ok! Just hold on.”
 Y/b/n threw his full weight on Y/n as he continued to clutch his side, but Y/n maintained her pace and stability as she slowly walked down the building where there was a locked shed, like where they held the electrical equipment for the out doors. Y/b/n wrapped his arm around Y/n’s shoulder as he said in a broken tone as the pain of the serum ran through his veins,
  “Y/n before I forget who you are- ugh! I just, I just need you to know that I’m sorry for it all, for not telling you sooner that I was alive, I was selfish- ah!- “
  “Honey it can wait, I understand-“
  “No! Y-Y/n? Yeah, Y/n, look, you did the right- agghhh!!!”
  Tears began to fill Y/n’s eyes as she opened the door to the shed and set Y/b/n down on the floor, what hurt her more was the fact that he was trying to confess everything he kept from her through the process of this serum taking over his body, which was beginning to make his confession be cut short and stuttered, but he either way tried to get it through. Y/n listened to him as she grabbed some large rope that was lying there and she began to bind him, his hands, wrists, ankles, legs, his torso, but he closer she got to finishing the more he began to struggle, and now he began to say in a harsh tone of ragged breaths,
  “I’m so sorry- LET ME GO! Wait, don’t listen! IM GOING TO KILL YOU! No! You have to go! Mom you have go now! It’s tight enough! I-I-I-“
  “I’m sorry Y/b/n-“
  “YOU MEAN JASON TODD!?!”
  She turned to look him dead in the eye for the second time as she saw that now the serum had taken full control, he wasn’t Y/b/n anymore, but as he said, Jason Todd. She saw that there was duck tape in the shelf, so she cut a large piece off with her teeth and laid it across his mouth to block his screams and threats, though it hurt her grievingly Y/n nonetheless said,
  “I don’t care who you are.. just know that I’ll save you, all of you. Your life, my life. Son.”
 She could her his muffled screams as she closed the door, she had to fight every bone in her body to call off the entire plan to only tend to him, but she knew she wouldn’t be doing anyone any favors, so she went on. And with that Y/n left the shed after she dragged scattered pieces of lumber from abandoned construction and began to cover the door, blocking the exit and any weak spots she found on the shed,
  ‘This should do you good for a while.. at least hold you off until we need you. Because tonight isn’t passing without you coming home. You have to come home.’
 Tears burned her eyes as they came out so painfully, her heart felt shattered and helpless, she was so close yet so far away from her son, he was there but wasn’t at the same time, which made it all hurt more. Deep down she prayed earnestly that the antidote Bruce had made would actually be good enough for saving him, before the serum would take permanent control and not just temporary like now.

I have never watched DP and everything I know about it is what I saw on Tumblr but... are you telling me... that you have ANOTHER fandom where the villain wants to adopt the MC?
Oh hun, let me tell you about how absolutely delicious and messed up the relationship between Danny Fenton and Vlad Masters is. It’s a veritable mine of content, a fic writer could get lost in that sweet, sweet sauce.
Long story short is Vlad is also part human, part ghost from a lab accident also caused by Danny’s parents 20 years ago when they were in college. He used his powers for selfish gain, lying and cheating his way to billions of dollars. But he was still bitter, still alone, falling victim to the ghostly nature of his powers and becoming obsessive. He was in love with Danny’s mom, Maddie and is convinced he had a chance with her if only his accident hadn’t happened. He blames Danny’s dad, Jack and swears to kill him.
He puts his plan into motion for their 20 year college reunion, to kill Jack and woo Maddie and finally stop feeling so alone. Only he finds out that the Fenton’s youngest son, a shy boy he’d written off, is also a half ghost hybrid. And just like that Vlad isn’t totally alone in the world. 
But does Vlad approach Danny like a normal person? Offer his understanding, help with his powers and generally act like someone with half a conscious? hell no. Instead he beats the child halfway to Sunday, demands that Danny forsake his home and family and become Vlad’s apprentice all the while actively trying to kill his Dad. Danny, predictably, says no dice.
And it spirals out of control from there. Vlad’s obsession with Maddie slowly shifts until he’s become obsessed with Danny. He says he wants love, he says he wants a family but he’s trying to get at it by scaring the child, by threatening him, by trying to get rid of every other place for Danny to turn so he has no where else to go but into Vlad’s welcoming arms. He wants a son but he has no idea how to be a decent person much less a father. At one point, he goes full blown nutso and tries to clone Danny to create “the perfect half ghost son”, it blows up in his face (literally) but it goes to show the lengths he’d go to.
Danny, meanwhile, is rightfully angry and upset about the whole situation. He’s scared to death of these ghost powers and he meets someone who finally understands and all he does is manipulate and hurt Danny. It really takes a blow to Danny’s trust in adults, Vlad instantly tries to control him once he learns about Danny’s powers so how can Danny trust anyone? He wants some guidance, he wants security and all he keeps getting is pain. He lashes out just as hard back as Vlad, mocking his loneliness and flaunting the loved ones he has in his life. He spits and curses the man as Fenton and tries to punch his smarmy face in as Phantom.
They’re two members of the world’s smallest species and they can’t stand each other. But it’s not as simple as that. Vlad has been isolated from people for 20 years, he’s conniving and manipulative as a human but his ghost powers make him 10x worse and his moral compass is perpetually broken. He does love, in his own twisted way, but things he had to force and painfully grip that love not realizing he’s driving people off. Danny is also just a kid and it’s not his job to help Vlad through his many, many issues. Vlad also exacerbates Danny’s paranoia and mistrust in general. I think some part of him still does look up to Vlad, hoping that one day he’ll turn around and become an actual mentor to Danny who really has no adult he can rely on. He’s willing to lend a hand to help his enemies but he always hesitates with Vlad, burned too many times. We see in a future AU that Vlad is capable of change and regret, Danny likewise is very compassionate and open but just can’t extend the same curtesy to Vlad.
Danny Phantom said “lets take this traumatized boy soldier with death powers who cant relate to anyone living and dead, give him an archenemy that 30 years older than him, more powerful in wealth and skills and smarts who is out to mentally break the child until he submits completely” and we fans just ate it up

So... Murdered au
And yes it is a crossover au bc I'm
~☆feeling like it☆~
To start off Maddie and Jack corner and managee to finally get a clean shot at the ghost boy and take him out! Hurray! Everything is better now right? Then Phantom transforms back into Danny.... and he is dead. Like 'hole through his chest' dead. And of course they panic. Because after a few minutes it becomes clear it isnt some trick. They just killed their son.
Oops
Since they can't exactly explain to anyone what happened, and barely understand it themselves, they panic and hide the body, burying it in the forest outside Amity somewhere. They make this big show of being concerned about their missing son while internally they are panicking and hoping no one finds out.
Jazz, Sam and Tucker think they are kinda suspicious but there is still the possibility that a ghost kidnapped Danny so they focuse more on that and trying to find him.
Meanwhile Danny, now a full ghost, wakes up in the GZ (specifically the Far Frozen bc ice core) and doesnt remember anything.
The thing with ghosts in this au is that they usually travel the material realm to jog their memories of their life. Only when they have regained enough memories to be satisfied that they know who they are, only then will they go back to the infinite realms. Some ghosts cant recover their memories, only finding places that are vaguely familiar. Poindexter is one of these kinds of ghosts, where they stay in that familiar place hoping to regain more memories but eventually become tied to it, even if they do have a lair in the infinite realms it'll always be tied to that one vaguely familiar spot.
So Danny immediately finds the closest natural portal (he unfortunately doesnt run into Frostbite or any other ghost) and starts on his way to regain his memories. He travels around a bit before ending up in Gotham, where Cass and Steph are the first ones to find him.
Of course they question what a meta is doing in Gotham and then Danny explains he is a ghost and as the conversation goes on it becomes clear to the girls just how lost and scared Danny is. Cass is the first to believe him with Steph following suit quickly and they inform the other bats over comms about the situation. They dont believe them at first but then they all gather on a rooftop with Danny there and after some more questioning Danny reluctantly takes off the hoodie he had been wearing (that he found forgotten on a bench a city over) and they see the literal hole in his chest and are like "okay yep, that seems like pretty solid evidence".
And Jason of course is internally freaking out a bit because the kid looks so young, he must have been around how old Jason was, and he is a ghost, a freaking ghost, and there is a literal hole through his chest like that must have been painful and the kid just looks so lost and confused.
Danny explains the whole "travelling around to regain memories" thing and the bats agree to help him. They go back to the cave and by the time they get there they all agree that Danny wasnt a gothamite. They start looking through records of any recently deceased or missing kids, Danny helping narrow down the search with the limited info he has.
I'm not sure where the au would go from here, they'd definitely eventually find the case of missing Danny Fenton and Danny would probably point at the missing persons picture and go "that's me!" And then chaos would ensue once they get to Amity park.
Its an idea with lots of angst potential but also fluff bc you really think being fully dead and having no memories of his past would stop Danny from heroing? Nope. He 100% follows the bats out on patrol and helps them take down criminals while he stays in gotham. He usually accompanies either Cass or Jason since they are his favourite of the bats. Jason is immediately like "can we adopt a ghost? Bruce. Bruce if you dont do it I will" and also he will be so angry at the Fentons when he finds out what happened to Danny.

Hi Christine! I was wondering if you have any fics similar to “lion among us” or “can’t rely on me” where Stiles is pushed out of the pack, either intentionally or otherwise? Thanks so much for the amazing work you do in keeping this fandom alive!
Sure!
Can’t rely on me by  Littleredridinghunter | 116.2K
The pack let him down, that’s not really a surprise lately.
When Danny finds Stiles nearly bleeding to death the next day it’s the start of a beautiful friendship.

Start Small, Like Oak Trees by  SmallBirds | 24.2K
The months following Allison’s death have passed Stiles by in a haze of monotony. He sleepwalks through days that seem to lose their color, an unwilling passenger in a body he no longer trusts. Eventually, he thinks, he’ll just fade away. He isn’t sure anyone would notice. Then, during a spur of the moment grocery run, he stumbles upon Derek Hale attempting to console a lost child, and for the first time in recent memory the world doesn’t seem so awful. He’s not sure what he’d been expecting when he eventually convinces Derek to move into the Stilinski’s spare bedroom, but a newfound passion for weeding and topsoil certainly isn’t it.
Fixer Upper by  Arsenic | 39.1K | Heavy Angst
After the events of 5a, Stiles is estranged from Scott–and by association, the pack. Derek is off finding himself, or, at least, Germany and some other places. There’s a lot of texting and post cards and then Derek comes back to find Stiles missing. Worse, nobody seems to remember Stiles existing.

This could have drastic consequences for their young emissary, however...
A Question of Pack by CawCawMF | 5.2K
Stiles had always been sure of his place in the pack. That place being the absolute lowest tier in the hierarchy of werewolf pack dynamics, but he was sure of it all the same.

He finds his way to New York where he starts working for the Hale House Nursery, accidentally adopts a werewolf baby (through no fault of his own thank-you-very-much), and somehow starts training to be an Exorcist Emissary. So, in general, life was going good.
Then he hears that demons have found their way into his hometown. Can he face his inner demons and go back to save the day?
Love So Hard, It Could Rip My Heart Out by  Lapin | 7.5K
Stiles is seventeen, and his best friend is drifting away, and his dad isn’t speaking to him, so he’s going to make some bad decisions. He’s seventeen and he needs bad decisions to look back on when he’s thirty, and nothing is a worse decision than Derek Hale. He’ll let the Big Bad Wolf in, let him press Stiles down into the couch and he’ll wrap his arms around him and he’ll know it’s a bad choice, but it’s his, and Derek is here when no one else is.
