I want to see a team composed of famous DC Super-Villians who become anti-heroes, if not full fledged heroes. Take like Lex Luthor, Harley Quinn, Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, The Cheetah, Poison Ivy, The Riddler, Two-Face, etc. Put them on a team and have them doing heroic deeds. Possibly it starts accidentally, possibly it starts as an experiment by the Justice League on behalf of rehabilitative justice (if we go this way, I get to include my favourite DC hero in Martian Manhunter), etc. Either way, we get a team of villians who slowly become relatable, sympathetic and publicly trusted.
And all these characters are sympathetic or can be made sympathetic. Legitimately, I feel sympathy for all these characters. All of them. And I think it's about time they get respect.
PS: This may be slightly inspired by that Lego DC Supervillains game. At least, it's inspiring me to want to replay the game. That's a deal minor thing, but I wanted to just write it down.

We're All In This Together-Chapter 6
Fandom: Supergirl, Batman, Superman, The Flash
Characters: Kara Danvers, Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne, Barry Allen, Barbara Gordon, Leonard Snart, Mxyzptlk, John Stewart, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen
Summary: Kara, Clark, and Barry are taken off guard by a request by the imp Mxyzptlk: watch over and protect the children of their alternate selves from a different Earth. Will our heroes rise to the occasion?
Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5
It took four minutes for Clark to get from Metropolis to Gotham. Considering how early it was, he landed at the front door instead of going through the cave. He knocked at the door and waited several minutes until Alfred answered. 
Alfred smiled and said, “Master Clark. It is nice to see you this morning. Will you be joining us for breakfast?”
Clark chuckled and said, “I have already had breakfast this morning but thanks for asking. I just came by to ask Bruce something is all.”
Alfred hurriedly ushered Clark in and said, “He is eating with the kids in the dining room.”
Clark rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly and said, “I can wait in the foyer until they are finished eating.”
Alfred scoffed and said, “You will do no such thing. There is plenty of room at the table. We also have more than enough to eat. I know you have already eaten, but I do have some of that raspberry lemonade and strawberry muffins that you like.”
Clark smiled. The raspberry lemonade and the muffins were some of Clark’s favorite treats. 
Clark chuckled and said, “I guess I could have one muffin.”
Alfred smiled and said, “Perfect!”
He ushered Clark to follow them to the dining room. As he edged toward the dining room, his super hearing picked up part of the conversation being held. 
Tim sighed and said, “Are you sure you don’t have any business at WE this morning?”
Bruce sighed and said, “For the last time, I have today off.”
“Then why would anyone come this early in the morning unannounced?” asked Tim. 
Clark winced at that. It was 7:00 am. He had debated whether it was too early to come or not.
Maybe, I should have waited an hour.
Dick sighed and said, “It is probably someone from the League wanting him to look into something.
“Crisis event?” asked Cassandra. 
Damian scoffed and said, “If it is the League, I want to come instead of going to the idiotic event planned for today.”
Tim asked sarcastically, “You mean the county fair?”
Damian scoffed and said, “Of course, I mean the fair. Why would I want to play second-rate games and watch people stuff themselves with unhealthy food.”
Dick chuckled and said, “You know there is more to it than that.”
Jason snickered and said, “Don’t even bother, Dickiebird. Demon brat wouldn’t know fun if it bit him in the ass.”
Damian growled and said, “Take that back Todd!”
Bruce sighed and said, “Jason don’t mock your brother, and Damian, for the love of God, put down the knife. You can’t attack everyone that vexes you.”
Damian muttered and said, “But he started it.”
Jason laughed and said, “Old man, just admit you forgot your promise to take us to the fair. I won’t get mad about coming here this early. Alfie’s breakfasts are definitely worth all the trouble.”
Bruce sighed and said, “Why do you guys have that much little faith in me? I told you multiple times that I took today off  from WE and told the League not to contact me unless there is the end of the world scenario happening.”
Alfred smirked and said, “I always enjoy your visits, Master Clark. They make things so much livelier around here.”
Clark laughed nervously to himself. He wasn’t sure if Alfred was being genuine about that or sarcastic. Clark shook his head. 
Probably sarcastic. 
As Clark entered the dining room, Cassandra saw him first and smiled. 
Cassandra pointed and said, “It’s Clark.”
All eyes suddenly zoomed in on Clark. Dick, Jason, and Tim had smirks on their faces. Damian was scowling. However, that wasn’t anything new. He would be surprised to see a smile on that kid’s face. He looked over at Bruce and nearly melted. He looked so handsome in his red sweater and brown slacks. Bruce was staring at Clark with a soft smile. It wasn’t that often that Bruce smiled and Clark always appreciated whenever he got to see one in person. 
Dick chuckled and said, “I told you it was League business. What is it this time? Is it another invasion or did the supervillains team up again?”
Jason sighed and said, “I hope not. That last crisis we had was a pain in the butt.”
Clark chuckled and as he went and took a seat by Dick and said, “It is nothing like that. I just had something I wanted to discuss with Bruce is all.”
Bruce raised an eyebrow as Alfred placed strawberry muffins and lemonade in front of Clark.
Clark smiled and said, “Thank you, Alfred.”
Alfred smiled and said, “No problem, Master Clark.”
Bruce looked at Clark intently and asked, “Did you want to go down to the cave to talk?”
Clark chuckled sheepishly and said, “It is nothing serious like that. I just have some news to share is all.”
Bruce looked at him curiously and asked, “Oh, what is it?”
Clark coughed while rubbing the back of his neck and said, “I have a child now.”
Everyone went silent. Clark felt like he could hear a pin drop. When he looked back up, he noticed that everyone was looking at him with curiosity.
Before Clark said anything, Bruce smirked and said, “I have two questions for you.”
Clark looked at him surprised and said, “Um, yeah sure.”
“Does this have anything to do with Mxy and does Barry have Kara have children too?”
Clark narrowed his eyes and asked, “You knew, didn’t you? You didn’t bug my apartment again?”

'I'm going to do something!' Barbara started to walk away again, then realized the Doctor wasn't following. She turned and shouted at him: 'You don't care about anyone, do you? Everyone's just a a chess piece, to you, now that Susan's gone. Ian, me-'
'My dear Susan' began the Doctor.
'I am not Susan!" bawled Barbara. 'Nor am I a piece of Susan, whatever you've told the Venusians. Neither is Ian. We're people - people who are travelling with you, and through no choice of our own. You have a responsibility to us. If you can't get us home, very well. But at least you can look after us in the meantime. Or if you won't if you're too busy with your "mysteries" she waved upwards at the omnipresent darkness of the Sou(ou)shi ship - then we'll just have to look after ourselves.
(Venusian Lullaby, by Paul Leonard)

We're All In This Together- Chapter 1
Fandom: Supergirl, Batman, Superman, The Flash
Characters: Kara Danvers, Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne, Barry Allen, Barbara Gordon, Leonard Snart, Mxyzptlk, John Stewart, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen
Summary: Kara, Clark, and Barry are taken off guard by a request by the imp Mxyzptlk: watch over and protect the children of their alternate selves from a different Earth. Will our heroes rise to the occasion?
Mxyzptlk looked through his list and sighed. He recently got released from prison in the fifth dimension. Part of his release program was to atone for all the victims of his petty crimes across every dimension he has ever visited. Originally prosecution was appalled at such weak terms of conditions until they listed out all the dimensions he has ever been to. Unfortunately, he has popped in and out of hundreds of thousands of different realities. He will more than likely die before he makes all of his restitutions. Unfortunately, the person that he pissed off the most in multiple dimensions was different variations of Superman. 
Mxy scrunched his face at the thought.
“The Superman in any reality is such a bore.”
He shook his head and looked for anyone else he could start with. He looked up thoughtfully at the first name that wasn’t Superman, his cousin Supergirl. 
“Ah, let’s start with her. She is nicer than her stuffy old cousin. Maybe old isn’t the right word since Supergirl is technically older than Superman.” 
He looked up the details of this Supergirl. Seems she is from Earth 103. He remembers the Supergirl from this reality being pleasant, but Superman though was a different story. He was very intense which was why Mxy left so quickly the last time he was there. In most realities, Superman was known for not killing, but the one from Earth 103 just made Mxy shudder thinking about him. He hadn’t killed anyone yet the last time Mxy was there, but there was something about his eyes that made Mxy wonder if that would ever change at all. Mxy shook his head and said,  “Maybe, Supergirl can put in a good word for me before I approach that Superman. If I recall, he wasn’t as nice as his other counterparts. Hopefully, I can kill two birds with one stone.”
Mxy snapped his fingers and was instantly transported to Earth 103. He quickly frowned once he got there. Normally, when he instantly transports, it would take him to the person of his desire. In this case, it should have transported him to Supergirl. However, he was now in an enclosed dark room. Mxy felt instant dread. Normally when this happens, it means that it isn’t safe to be around his target and transports him close by but in a safe location. The magic fail-safe has saved many imps from being in the wrong place at the wrong time. 
Mxy used magic to adjust his eyesight to see in the dark. He realized that he was in a panic room that was about the size of a small closet. There was a computer monitor on the right wall, but it was turned off. There was a chair, a table, and four other occupants. There was a woman in her late 20s kneeling on the floor. On the table, were three babies in car seats. If he had to take a guess, they looked like newborns. The babies were fast asleep. Mxy looked back at the women. He didn’t want to spook her, but he needed information about what was going on. He decided to do a mind meld. Usually, he hated doing these because the mind meld exposed each other’s minds to the participants involved, but considering that this lady is hiding in a safe room in the dark, he knows that making sounds or bright lights is not an option. He pushed his mind towards her. He was surprised to find a door. He was almost impressed. Humans weren’t known for having the ability to protect their minds from telepaths. However, that let him know that she needed to do this constantly. Instead of trying to ram his way in he knocked and waited. After waiting a couple of minutes, wondering if he could just tap her physically without screaming, he felt her presence behind the door. He could sense terror and shame, but there was a startling little bit of hope among the dark emotions. 
He pressed his hand on the door and said, “My name is Mxyzptik, but I mostly go by Mxy. I am trying to help pay back Supergirl as part of my release program. I used magic to take me where she is, but it brought me to you instead. I don’t know if you know why that is.”
He felt the space in her mind shake with immense sadness seeping through the door. It nearly overwhelmed him. After a moment, it suddenly stopped and the door cracked open a little. A woman’s head popped out a little and Mxy instantly recognized her, Lois Lane. She looked at him strangely and said, “Supergirl talked about you a lot. You kept transporting her to different places randomly leaving her stranded.”
Mxy rubbed the back of his head and said, “It wasn’t one of my more finer moments. That is why I would like to make it up to her.”
Lois’ face filled with so much sorrow which took him aback. She opened the door and motioned him inside. Once he entered, he realized he was in a white room where there was a display that appeared to the right. 
“What is that for?” asked Mxy curiously. 
Lois sniffed while wiping tears streaming down her face. 
She looked back up at Mxy and said, “I can’t verbally recount what happened, but I can show you.”
The screen instantly flickered on and showed a rapid flash of images. It started with Superman changing from his traditional costume to one that was all back, to Superman killing off the Justice League one by one, and lastly to Supergirl and her wife being eviscerated by Superman’s heat vision. When the images ended, Mxy had to fight the bile that was threatening to come out of his stomach. 
Lois said softly, “When he killed Supergirl, I had my child with me along with Supergirl’s newborn and the Flash’s newborn. I fled with them. This room we are in is supposed to be encased in lead, soundproof, and littered on the outside with Kryptonite, but I don’t know if that will hold us that long.”
Mxy looked at her with much sorrow. Technically, he didn’t have to do anything. He can’t help Supergirl who is already dead and helping Superman was out of the question since he turned into a homicidal maniac. However, he wanted to do something. 
He looked at her determined and said, “I know that he took out the Justice League, but I recall you having some powerful villains. Maybe, if they got together, they could…”
Lois shook her head and said, “That is what caused all of this in the first place.”
He looked at her baffled as Lois pointed him towards the screen again. When he looked to the screen, it showed Lex escaping from Arkham. He shot Clark with a Kryptonite bullet which caused him to go down for a couple of minutes. As Lex made his escape in his getaway car, he ran a school bus off the road into a lake. Superman heard the screams and hurried to get the Kryptonite bullet out of his chest so he could save the kids. However, by the time he did, it was too late. The kids had all drowned. When Superman brought out the school bus from the lake, you could see his face change from subdued to absolutely terrified when he realized that he recognized all of these students. One student in particular, his son Conner. Lois and Clark’s son was only 10 when this happened and hadn’t come into his powers yet. He cried over his son’s cold and lifeless body. His eyes then started going red and then he was off into the sky. 
The images on the display show Lois trying to reach out to Superman, but he pushed her away. Instead, he instantly went to kill Luthor and then every other criminal on the planet. Anybody that opposed him like the League or government agencies was wiped out.
