Feels Like It Should Be Common Knowledge That You Don't Ask The Dead How They've Died Especially Considering

Feels like it should be common knowledge that you don't ask the dead how they've died especially considering the fact that in their eyes he might be from Gotham and that means a very traumatic death, also he flinches and that ain't strong enough of a hint? Wtf

DPxDC Prompt

Phantom is new to the Justice League, not much is known about him, except ONE thing.

That he's dead. A ghost.

It is pretty heartbreaking to think about, especially for heroes. But also, they can't help but be curious. How did the kid die…

Danny has to walk away the first time he's asked, he flinches the next time, the third time he has had enough. He says the first scenario that comes to mind, it works, it gets the hero to leave him alone, even if they went strangely pale.

Next several times he's asked he does the same, recites the first thing that comes to mind, a different thing every time. When the heroes go ghost white, deathly quiet or excuse themselves? well they shouldn't have asked in Danny's opinion!

What he doesn't realize is he has been reciting the heroes own near death experiences back to them, which is why each and every one of them has backed off after getting their answer.

Fun fact: Stella has killed more people than Rayla

Do I have proof? No

Do I have doubts? No

Danny & Loki

The infinite realms cover not just places and dimensions but also times. The Yggdrasil (tree) has branches that are said to allow those who can walk them without getting lost the ability to travel between realms. I'm pretty sure those two would intersect somewhere.

Which means - Danny could end up finding Loki as a young man/child and being his friend and/or adopting him as a son, cousin, whatever. Or maybe he even adopts him as a father figure/mentor.

I mean - you have someone (with black hair and green eyes) who is not accepted for who they are, are constantly compared to an older sibling and told they aren't enough, belittled for the skills they do have and have worked hard for (and has a connection to magic and ice). I'm pretty sure that Danny would empathize with that. And want him to not be alone.

Maybe Danny finds him by accident. Maybe Loki is exploring on the branches of the Yggdrasil and falls into the GZ. Maybe danny was practicing opening portals and landed in Asgard in the past (and keeps going at different times and is basically Loki's secret childhood friend even though Loki is very much older than him)

OR!!

Maybe its reversed!!!

Loki is the one to find Danny. He sees a child who has to hide who they are and what they can do from parents that are openly against what he is, and what he hides being. A child with no one to teach him as he struggles to learn the powers he has (maybe a type of magic. Death magic maybe?) And then he sees the ice and knows he can help. So he does. And Loki basically adopts Danny.

fellow protest attendees, i am begging you to take safety measures, you simply can’t trust your government to not go after you if your face is clearly visible and documented.

hats, masks, bulky jackets if the weather allows it. In the aftermath of a number of BLM protests, people were identified from photos and arrested, just DONT take the chance.
