I'm so going to make a story in my head about this just you wait >:)

This whole thing with Deadman giving Nightwing a coin that lets him see dead people has so many fun implications for dpxdc stories. Like, Danny invisibly haunting the batfam and pulling pranks, while Nightwing just stares at him like a cat staring down the invisible eldritch horror in the corner of the room that no one else can see.

For context, Nightwing has an obol coin which was used to pay Charon to cross the river styx. It gives him the ability to see and hear Deadman, and other dead entities. Including the "chatter of broken things" and “plaintive little cries of mass-produced stuff more easily trashed than fixed.” Aka Nightwing can hear inanimate objects. Aka Nightwing is probably being haunted by fast fashion and disposable packaging.

Man I really want him to meet Box Ghost so they can commiserate about the lack of respect paid to disposable products.

dc magic characters are so underrated i fucking love them.

zatanna - cute stage magician outfit. turns men into fish. squeaky-clean justice league persona but also is part of sexy magic underground of kinky people who fight demons. sapphic queen. 

constantine - fucking punk rocker bisexual fascist-hating icon. complicated horny guy trying to do the right thing. at least 6/10 for effort. 

spectre - is literally the embodiment of god’s wrath but has to possess a ghost to walk among men? your crotchety old grandpa who thinks ripped jeans are ruining society. in a bitter ‘we’ve been married 90 years and i’ve wanted to kill you for every minute of it’ relationship with phantom stranger.

phantom stranger - just a floaty mysterious dude. chilling. strange sense of morals for someone who can only be helpful like half the time. maybe judas. literally in love with the spectre.

madame xanadu - ummmm ma’am i love you? she has fucked the spectre, etrigan AND jason blood (AND probably zatanna and phantom stranger). another canon bi lady. literal immortal queen of my heart she deserves so much more attention than she’s given.

jason blood - okay so jason isn’t always written great but listen he’s also another bi icon fighting demons (also loving his demon body-partner) probably fucked vandal savage and ra’s al ghul??? who knows he’s been around for a while. 

etrigan - FUCKING. rhyming, drinking, fucking demon on the side of good. kissed batman. what more could you want? 

boston brand - fun floating ghost man who doesn’t let death get him down. he will hijack your body and make you whip nae nae during an important meeting and i love him for it

traci 13 - invented being cool and being a lesbian. she is so much fun and so sassy i love her 

andrew bennett - forlorn king of the vampires who has to be like the only one of his race because all vampires are evil i guess? which would be sad if not for the fact he just walks around in leather pants and a trench coat and not even shoes… what is this man. the cullens could never.
