Danny is literally Kryptonite
Sorry for the late post, holidays have been busy this year. Anyway, enjoy my newest dpxdc prompt!
The kryptonite didn’t work.
Batman is now running on… limited options.
Superman had been possessed again, but this time with an unknown. He is exhibiting signs of extreme degradation at this point, after the several hours of fighting. Justice League Dark have been unsuccessful with any long ranged spells, and whatever it is controlling Superman has not allowed them to get close.
The Flash is down, as is Wonder Woman. The remaining Supers started showing the effects of Kryptonite whenever they got in a radius of Superman, so they have been put on civilian rescue.
Things… are looking grim.
Suddenly, a black blur flies and slams into Superman, then straightens up to reveal a young, white haired teen, floating above Superman in a crater.
“Ya’ll are REALLY trying to make me look like a villain, aren’t yah?”
. . .
The fight lasts for thirty minutes, while the young hero(?) seems to stall him, keeping the fight within a one-mile radius, lessening the damage to the city. Well, as much as he can, at this point.
“Got it!” He yells suddenly, grabbing and throwing Superman to two other teenagers and… a dream catcher? A glowing green dream catcher.
Superman tumbles through it, and a green blobbed-shaped entity lifts off of him, and is immediately vacuumed into- a soup thermos, why not- by one of the other teenagers.
Just.
what?

Dc x dp idea 17
When the GIW try and get the anti ecto acts passed the justice league is on top of it. They argue that it would go against the meta human acts.
Giw are claiming that since there dead they no longer are human and they are non sentient to get it through. This leads to an investigation on the ghost to prove otherwise.
John, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman are all off to go investigate amity. They are going to prove they aren’t non sentient and shouldn’t be excluded from protections.
The four did not expect the chaos that is amity. daily ghost attacks, a child hero, the GIW already shooting first even before the bill is pass and then the Fenton parents. Mad scientist bent on dissection.
John is fed up at the residents of the infinite realm. They just keep going invisible or flying off whenever one of them attempt to talk to them.
The only one that is remotely of use is phantom. But Anytime he sits still long enough to talk the GIW of the Fenton parents are actively trying to shoot and capture him.
Now Batman is handling the investigation on the Fenton parents. His suspicions are child neglect and/or abuse. Danny grades slipped hard is constantly away from home the few time he was at home the weapons in the house attacked him.
The turning point is not necessarily hood but does prove they have sentient thought. It’s skulker hunting down Danny not phantom. Skulker likes to make Danny’s life hard and said he was hunting the ghost hunters youngest child.
It proves they have enough sense to target ppl based on others actions. Plus a few others examples such as lunch lady being upset about her lunch menu being changed. As well a 100 page essay Jazz Fenton handed Wonder Woman.
This all ends with the anti ecto laws not passing, Danny and jazz being removed from there parents care, the turning off of the portal and the Fenton parents in jail.

I keep randomly think about this:
Imagine Batman revealing his identity to the league. He does it extremely nonchalant, the leaguers briefly wonder if he just forgot they were there for a moment.
Everyone takes the news relatively normal, and it's not that big of a deal. All just happy that Batman has officially trusted them 100%. No one really calls him Bruce though, especially not when he's in costume.
Thing is, they are constantly forgetting.
Not in the sense that Bruce Wayne is Batman. But that Batman is Bruce Wayne.
Every time Bruce unmasks in the safety of their shared space, they just get reminded of the fact.
The fact that Batman is so pretty.
The hero that strikes fear in the hearts of many criminals. The vigilante that has gone up against extreme foes. A man with no special powers aside from his mind. The world's greatest detective is a pretty playboy.
And sometimes, just sometimes, some of the heroes hit a buffering stage when Bruce does it in the middle of a conversation.
Maybe, just maybe, Bruce realizes it. Might just use it to his advantage while the effect is still there.

Voted for Bumble bc of course but also if you think Alex would not pspsps Bumble you are wrong. If they could communicate they would go to therapy together /s
If then could communicate they would go to therapy together
/GEN
Kyle/Green Lantern resurrects her but then he becomes convinced that she's not the same person she was before the incident, OR SOMETHING SOMETHING Black Lanterns aren't ACTUALLY bad they're just misunderstood Grim Reaper types, in either case Alex ends up breaking it off with Kyle because they've become very different people.
And then Bumble's there
And then they go to therapy or Alex adopts Bumble, and then uhhh Bumble's like one of the superpets. Like Krypto the Superdog. Free premise go forth and play with it if ur a DC fan
#bone babble#Again I don't actually know a lot about the DC universe besides what my friend tells me#But also from reading into the Black Lanterns having them be evil sound like a WHOLE wasted opportunity#Lanterns are supposed to be emotions yeah? so why the hell are we downplaying the emotion of GRIEF?#There's a whole lot you could do with that actually. Death doesn't deserve to just be a villain of the week#And hell. You could explore some WILD emotions here about Alex becoming so much more than Kyle's tragedy#Can I still mourn you when you aren't dead?#What does it mean for me that the worst thing that ever happened to me has become an opportunity for her?#And... does this make me selfish for not being happy for her?#For not trying to understand the person she has become? for only thinking of how this impacts myself#RE: THIS IS NOT A DIG AT DC FANS#BUT I want to share that like... a reason I've kinda had a hard time getting into comics is because like... really interesting premises--#like that often get turned into Monster-of-the-Week struggles for the heroes to punch into submission#I've probably just seen really bad summaries or not found the editions that would appeal to me specifically#But it's kinda why the only DC hero I'm really interested in is Superman#Because a lot of his thing is that he's a good GUY#And that creates a lot of interesting moral questions#Like YES he's a good guy. YES he has no ulterior motive. But what if he DID?-- how can EVERYONE ELSE in the universe truly know that-#for sure?#And that's cool and I really like the snippets I've seen especially between him and batman#But anyway. so much fridging and misogyny in the world of comics has kinda turned me away from getting into it#because. VERY often. Misogyny can be... *tied* to a bit of a lack of imagination. Or empathy on behalf of a particular writer#RE: There is good stuff in DC PLEASE understand im not trying to be insulting

Not my circus, not my monkeys.
Danny couldn’t believe it. He graduated high school with better grades than he imagined. Everything was also falling into place. His parents had accepted him as a halfa, and nothing bad has happened for almost a year now.
Well, he graduated, yes, but his grades weren’t on his sister’s level. Still, it was something he was proud of. Between making sure that Amity Park is safe from ghosts, going to Clockwork every now and then, and making sure he doesn’t fail at any of his classes, the road to a diploma was a hard one. (Although for some reason, the number of ghost attacks had gradually decreased until his usual rogues stopped attacking. They still visit Amity Park, but only to talk, hang out, or spar with him. It was strange at first, but he eventually got used to it.)
And now, in a few weeks, he is officially moving to Metropolis for college to become an engineer. It wasn’t what his younger self wanted, what with wanting to be an astronaut (not that he could be one, after what happened to him in the lab), but it was something more than what he thought he could ever accomplish.
(The deal-breaker was his parent's promise to protect Amity Park. He would have stayed and enrolled at Amity Community College, but his parents told him to live his life to the fullest.)
To celebrate their milestones together, Danny, Sam, and Tucker, together with Jazz as their chaperone for the summer, have decided to go wander around Metropolis and its neighboring cities as 'tourists' (Tucker and Sam had decided to go to Metropolis University, too, with the former studying Computer Science while the latter would take Journalism), partly because they will spend the rest of their college years in the city, and partly because compared to the other cities, Metropolis was safer because of Superman.
That means they can go anywhere and not fight.
'Not my circus, not my monkeys', as the saying goes.
Then Lex Luthor and Superman decided to duke it out in front of the Daily Planet, while the four of them were caught in a bank robbery.
The large LED TV inside the bank showcased the man of steel fighting the billionaire genius as the robbers scare everyone into submission with their guns.
The four of them looked at the LED TV, then at the robbers, and came to a decision.
-
Superman was in the middle of fighting Luthor when he heard the cries of various civilians, and a couple of criminals demanding a bank to let them in their vaults.
Then he heard gunshots.
Fearing for the worst, he quickly defeated Lex, told the cops to ship him back to prison, and flew to the bank, just to see a floating white-haired meta and a teenage girl conjuring plants tying up and freezing the robbers. In the corner was another boy typing on a PDA, and a red-headed girl comforting the other people in the bank.
The four people in question froze upon noticing Superman.
Two large vines immediately snatched the redhead and the other boy, while the white-haired meta phased them down the bank's floor.
So much for the saying, 'Not my circus, not my monkeys'. 
 - 
(This is terribly written. I haven’t done my research. Sorry for the quality of this short fic.)

Getting a Jewish Prince Eric and a Jewish Clark Kent does actually have the potential to heal some of the psychic damage that Marvel Studios has dealt to me over the years

Thinking once again about how different people approach the idea of which side of the Superman/Clark Kent divide is “real”. My two cents?
Personally, I don't like it being as simple as "Superman is the tool Clark Kent uses to do good" or "Clark Kent is the mask Superman wears to blend in with the rest of society." It might be easier to explain if we think in terms of there being three identities--Clark, Superman, and Kal-El. Kal-El is the identity that can be called "real" with the fewest caveats. It's who he is around his parents, Lois after their relationship starts to be deeper than "Winking at her after saving her from a burning building", Kara, Jimmy, and probably the other founding members of the Justice League (Rule of thumb: anyone who has been let in on the secret identity probably knows Kal-El). Kal-El is the most rounded identity, able to be sweet and earnest and a little awkward without having to be as meek and timid as Clark Kent has to be; able to be brave and sure and capable without having to be as flawless and (for lack of a better word) corny as Superman has to be. Kal-El, I think, is where the playfulness and sense of humor live, along with the fundamental drive to do good and the ability (not merely the desire but the ability) to form close relationships.
As for Clark and Superman, they are both, in their way, lies--or at any rate constructs--and yet because they are equally false, they are also equally true. Superman is Kal-El's ideals, his willingness to step up and accept the "Great Power=Great Responsibility" principle, and his efforts toward staying connected to and honoring whatever he can salvage of his origin and heritage (I could go off on a whole 'nother ramble about that) as much as he can. Clark Kent is Kal-El's  humility, his belief in the importance and worthiness of those who don't  have "Great Power", and his efforts toward fitting into and making a home this world that took him in and loved him when his ancestral world could not. 
What makes this three-way identity tricky to spot is that he so rarely uses the name "Kal-El" even when he is very much in "Kal-El" mode. His parents, the people who can most unquestionably be said to know Kal-El, call him Clark, while Batman, the person with whom he is most likely to act as Kal-El when presenting as Superman, will still call him Superman as long as they're in costume (and then Clark when they're out, assuming we're at a point where he and Bruce have swapped identity information).

My favorite thing about yesterday's episode was how Jordan glared at Candice every time she was near him. You could just feel the burning hatred in his eyes. He did not forgive her for what she put his brother through and it's obvious. The fact he refused to hug her and barely even spoke a response after she talked to him tells me enough
Jordan was the fandom's feelings towards Candice and it was hilarious

your dad kinda sounds like bruce wayne
Rich (ish) white guy with emotional issues and way too many kids? Would benefit greatly from therapy? Most likely autistic? Communicates better in grunts than in words? Would rather push his credit card in my face than tell me he loves me because he doesn’t know how to actually say those words? Playboy when he was younger but in like a respectable, kinda charming way?
…yeah, he kinda does

Clark has gotten really good at pretending to feel pain over the years, but every now and then he has to slip up, right? He has to do something that would hurt a human and just not realize until other people react. So please imagine that scene from she's the man where Clark somehow gets hit in the groin and he has like a 10 second delayed reaction where everyone is looking at him and wincing before he realizes that he should probably like, be on the ground groaning in pain and proceeds to overcompensate with the acting
