Darius would rather die a hero than slowly withering away from Huntington's.
Who can blame him?

Thirteen lives
Fiction aside, this is incredibly good news! Huntington's is a death sentence and any treatment is amazing. I hope they find something as soon as humanly possible.

Brain go BRRRRRR...
My brain is attacking me. Outright attacking me.
Recently, I began having episodes where my heart rate would spike, light dizziness would set in, I would have a weird smell in my nostrils and my ears would both clog up and start ringing. The weird smell is more closely aligned with warm electronics than something burning.
As these all happened at home, I made several attempts to go lay down on my bed and let the episode pass. I never made it any of the three times I've tried.
I didn't lose consciousness but had recently started a new medication. I alerted my doctor, who adjusted my dosage as a precaution. No future episodes since then.
This past Saturday, things took a turn. While I am ambulatory, I require a cane to walk for periods longer than 15 minutes. I attended a concert on Saturday and the distance from where the car parked to the front gate was closer to a 30 minute walk. I thought I was good. I had my cane. I took the ramps. I took my time. I switched my lawn seat (which I could no longer walk up to) to ADA seating.
All was good in the ADA seating for the middle act and a portion of the headliner. Then, without cause or warning, I went unconscious. I slumped to the left in the chair and my head fell to one side. My friend was not able to rouse me, had someone get security and the medical team was called. I lost all control of my faculties, started drooling, struggled to breathe and wound up peeing my pants.
Medical took me to the medical tent, where, upon arriving, began checking my blood sugar, my BP, my eyes, asking cognitive questions again. Every reading came back normal. Absolutely nothing wrong excepting for low o2 sats (91 and 92) which was partially attributed to being unconscious for a few minutes.
Despite being basically dead for a few minutes, the medical team couldn't find any reason to transport me for further evaluation. However, I did earn a golf cart trip to my car and immediate expulsion from watching the concert. My friend was greatly concerned throughout all of this and was a bit gobsmacked I was completely fine after.
I have an MRI to rule out MS on the 14th. I'm working today to see if I can get the appointment moved up, citing Saturday's episode as the cause. I was specifically asked this weekend if I have Huntington's disease. Sadly, I researched Huntington's and it's more closely aligning with what's going on for me medically right now.
Really hoping it's neither.

TikTok's Worst FAKER Is Still Hurting People
From a post by Emerald's mother (I also will not identify her by name or social accounts) about halfway through the vid:
"Understand that a person who fakes a mental illness, obviously HAS a mental illness."
Just...not the one Tics is trying to claim.
Also, have a brief rundown of Huntington's disease. It shares more in common with Parkinson's than Tourette's.

it really fucks me up how often house md has this message of “the love was there. just not enough.” because of COURSE chase and cameron loved each other. of course house and cuddy were in love and foreman and thirteen were in love and wilson and sam were and cuddy and lucas and house and lydia and house and stacy and taub and rachel but. it just wasn’t enough. the love was there and it matters that it was there. but it saves no one. it fixes nothing. they still move on. they still leave. somebody is always left alone in the end. EXCEPT house wilson who broke this pattern For Yaoi rasones.

Danny is the son of Mr Freeze
So! Danny was adopted as a Kid.
It was never really that big of a thing to him, just a small footnote in his life. He never really cared about finding his Bio Family, or even looking into it at all. His new Family was enough for him, no need to complicate it all that much.
But then, the Accident happened.
After he got shocked by the Portal and passed out, his parents had rushed him to the hospital. Apparently his Heart had been pulsing irregularly, so they had decided to not take any chances.
While at the Hospital, the Doctors noticed a particularly strange result in his blood tests. So, a few months after he had been discharged (it took a while for the blood work to come back), they asked him to come back in for further testing.
At first, Danny was scared that they had found out about his Powers. But when he walked into the Room, they had other news.
He had been diagnosed with Huntingtons Disease, a rare neurological condition that apparently had no known cure. The only possible way to contract the Disease was to have inherited it from one of his parents.
They said it was in its early stages at the moment, but as time passed he would become weaker and weaker, and he would become more sickly. They diagnosed that he had just over 5 years left before he died, and there were no treatments or cures that could save him.
Danny got a second opinion with Frostbite, since he knew more about Ghost Biology and might know if it was truly a fatal Disease for a Halfa.
And yeah, it was. No matter how much of him is Ghostly, he is still half Human, and the Human Disease in his body can and will kill him. And there's no guarantee that he will become a full Ghost upon death. For all he knows it will just End him.
So, Danny had a time limit to find a way to cure himself. He didn't have much time to study, what with the constant Ghost Attacks, his School Work, and keeping his parents from attacking innocent Ghosts, but he managed where he could.
Speaking of his parents, they had been looking into the disease as well. But they seemed convinced that they could find a way to save him by simply dissecting a Ghost to study its biology. (It was as if this was just a convenient excuse to dive deeper into their obsession)
After a while, he mamaged to resolve the Ghost Attack stuff and got his grades under control, but he was still making little progress on finding a Cure.
So, he looked into other people who might be studying the same Disease, to see if he could look I to their research. But that search came up empty.
There was nobody who wanted to fund research into such a rare disease, so nobody was studying it. There was one man who was studying it, but he was a convicted Supervillain. Danny decided that he would be his backup plan, since he wasn't sure how Jazz would react if he teamed up with a known Villain.
He just kept on studying his condition.
...
It had been about 4 years since his initial diagnosis, and Danny was 18. And he needed help.
He had made no progress in developing a Cure, and his condition had worsened. He could barely walk without a limp anymore, and his limbs felt weaker by the day.
He did manage to get some luck when he found out that lowering his Body Temperature would slow the progress of the Disease. He was never more thankful for his Ice Powers than on the day he figured that out.
But he had hit a roadblock. He needed help, and unfortunately there was only one place he could go to get it. The Supervillain he had read about all that time ago, Mr Freeze.
Now he was headed to Gotham City to seek his help, even if it meant becoming a Villlain himself.
