I Haven't Seen Dancing Pumpkin Guy ONCE This Year, Are You Guys Okay?

No nuance the normal option is only one and i want statistics to prove to my parents that something is deeply wrong with them

going to invent a new word

Ra’s: Who turned the Lazarus Pit purple?

Nyssa: Are those bath bombs?

Talia: *calmly sipping her tea*

Ra’s, to Talia: It’s one of your spawn again, I just know it.

Talia: I’ll have you know my children are both perfect angels.

Nyssa: *poorly concealed snort*

Meanwhile, back in Gotham:

Jason: I have to admit, I’m impressed.

Bruce: Jason, stop encouraging this.

Jason: What? I’m not encouraging it, I’m just saying it’s impressive.

Steph: Thanks. I just felt like I wasn’t contributing much to the annoy Ra’s effort.

Bruce: No, no effort. There is no effort.

Tim, walking into the Cave: Hey, anyone know why Ra’s texted me asking for an alibi?

Jason: It was Steph?

Tim: Seriously? That’s amazing! What’d you do?

Bruce: STOP ENCOURAGING THIS.

Tim: What? it’s just Ra’s. We annoy him all the time.

Bruce: *one more thread of mental sanity snapping in the background*

Bruce: I don’t want to know, but I feel compelled to, so by show of hands, who here routinely pokes a bear with a stick?

Jason: I’m telling Ra’s you called him that. *whips out his phone and begins texting*

Bruce: I did not… Not the point. Can you all just PLEASE stop antagonizing a supervillain?

Damian: Grayson said a little harmless teasing was a sort of bonding activity between family members.

Jason: Yeah, just letting gramps know we’re thinking about him.

Damian: And how we will one day dismantle his entire legacy.

Tim, cackling: I’m telling him you called him gramps. *begins texting*

Steph: Wow, and all I did was get some bath bombs in the Lazarus Pit.

Damian: My respect for you has increased, Brown.

Steph: Thanks, kid. Your mom helped.

Bruce: *pained sounds*

Later:

Talia: So what are your thoughts on Jason?

Steph: Yeah, he’s pretty cool.

Talia: Would you be willing to consider entering into a…

Jason: MOM! STOP TRYING TO SET ME UP!

Steph: Uh…

Talia, shrugging: It was worth a try.

semi-endgame jail conversation gave me whiplash! i don’t know what the royal family drama is but i need the entire story front to back thanks. gimme the tea or whatever the kids say ☕

DPxDC: Fear Eaters??!!!

Uncle Scarecrow AU!

So Jonathan is either Maddie's Half brother or Cousin and was really close with the Fenton family until he went a little crazy.

His obsession with fear is driven partially by the idea that ghosts feed on fear and partially since he's ecto contaminated and also feeds on fear to some extent.

Eventually word gets out to a few people that Danny is Phantom and the GIW managed to destabilize him in a way that he doesn't look as human and needs a large amount of fear and ecto to look even somewhat normal.

Maddie and Jack send him off to his Uncle Jon knowing that Gotham has ecto and fear in abundance. Jon digs deeper into his fear gas and figures out that it can work as a stabilizer for Danny if he inhales, drinks, or gets it injected into him.

The Bats get suspicious when Scarecrow breaks out of Arkham and just isn't seen for weeks. They manage to track him down and see him with his mask off in a lab with Danny and Bruce, Tim, and Cass listen in:

"Are you sure this will work, Uncle Jon?" A boy with white hair and Lazarus green eyes asks looking just a bit too inhuman to be comfortable. ("Uncle Jon?)

Crane spins around

"It has to work, Danny and I'll keep working until it does." He approaches Danny with a syringe full of fear serum. The Bats get ready to intervene but the boy doesn't seem scared

"So this chemically causes fear and hallucinations. Right?"

"Exactly. Since you're half human I'm unsure how much fear you're supposed to ingest to stay healthy but we're going to figure it out. Your parents entrusted you to me so I'm going to make sure you're okay." The boy sighs and gestures for the needle. As the Bats shift, this child has to feed on fear to stay healthy?

"I'm pretty sure they sent me to you because of ecto levels in the city and the amount of fear I'd be able to consume naturally Uncle Jon." He states as he jams the needle into himself. Above him Bruce and Tim want to intervene but Cass stops them

"Not hurting him." She states. Danny shivers for a moment before shifting into a much more human form with black hair and blue eyes as they watch on.

"How human do I look?" Scarecrow grins widely

"You look great kiddo. How stable do you feel? What effects are there? How is it interacting with your biology?" Danny thinks for a moment

"I feel like I watched a horror movie in theatre and absorbed enough fear to last a few days." Scarecrow takes note of that.

"Eventually we'll find something that'll work more permanently." Crane vows

"How much fear do you need to eat weekly?" (The Bats listen closer if one of their rogues literally has to feed on fear that rewrites several prior assumptions about him)

"Not as much as you. I'm still mostly human and I tend to stock up on a bunch at once. I'm thinking about making a weak strain to inject myself with so I won't have to go out as much." His Nephew seemed surprised

"Really? Family tradition means that we need at least one Supervillain a generation and my parents have stopped doing vivisections in their basement so really it's just you?"

"Family tradition?" Tim questions but Bruce is almost as confused. He'll need to look into Jonathan Cranes background more after this if it's a family tradition. He's also concerned about the vivisections the boy mentioned.

Scarecrow let's out a bit of a laugh below them.

"Who will be the villain from your gen then?" He mused

"Any one of us really," Danny laughed "According to the Government I'm breaking the law by existing. Ellie is half raised by Uncle Vlad and he's enough of a villainous fruit loop, Dan is on probation for murder, and Jazz wants to be a psychologist." He explained.

"Jazz I'm sure." He smirks as the Bats take notes

The people of Gotham could do nothing but watch in horror as the Joker killed Dr. Fenton on live TV. The doctor had moved to Gotham a little over a year ago and quickly made a name for himself by setting up clinics and shelters in the seedier parts of the city. Many had warned him of the dangers, of the criminals that would potentially target him but he didn't listen. He continued his work and soon wormed his way into the hearts of many. That's why he made a great target for the Crown Prince of Crime. Because his death would be absolutely devastating.

And it was, until someone pointed out that the good doctor seemed to be twitching behind the Joker as his gloated to the camera. That twitching soon because full on squirming and the citizens could only watch in shocked curiosity as Dr. Fenton eventually twisted out of his restraints. Then he bent down to pick up a metal pipe lying on the ground and crept towards the Joker. Understandably, many were terrified. Why wasn't the doctor using this chance to get away? People began screaming at the screens for him to escape but he just got closer. Finally he was right behind his captor and brought the pipe over his head. In one fell swoop he brought the pipe down with a satisfying crack that all could hear.

"I usually keep pretty strictly to my hippocratic oath," Dr. Fenton said. "But for you, I'm willing to make an exception."

He then proceeded to drag the Joker out of frame by the collar. The live feed ended soon after. Later, when the police arrived. Dr. Fenton was found causally sitting on some steps outside the warehouse. As they got closer, they realized the steps were actually the Joker, alive albeit barely.

TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!!!
