Sweet N Sour Grapes Au - Tumblr Posts
Daniel Luthor au
Even when Lex is very open about Daniel, soon son-to-be, heroism and Daniel being someone who doesn't shy from the cameras very little is known of his origins
A lot of people have theories of him being kryptonian or an alien of some kind but it has never been confirmed


You’re absolutely one of the most underrated artists I’ve ever had the pleasure of coming across. Your artstyle is just so pleasing to look at and you deserve the star hung for you. Anywho do you have an ao3 or anywhere you do or write more content for your AUs? Is there any more sweet and sour grape content? 🥺
You are going to make blush! Thank uuuu, it means a lot🙂↕️🫶

To answer your questions in order
not really, I have an ao3 but just to read stuff. I'm the kind of guy that either writes the lore of my stuff on the corner of a sketch oooor just keeps the info floating around in my head like one of those TV screens [bonk] [shaking legos in a box sound]
YES THERE IS!!!! I haven't been able to think how to share the lore of it yet since it has dark themes like human trafficking and uuuuuuh... Other stuff related to bad mental health do I put Tw at the top of the post or in the tags or both?/genq.
Daniel has being through so much trauma in the span of like a year and a half or 2 that he has Dissociative Amnesia to the point that having an evil dad is fine by him, he no longer cares about morality that much, he is just living the life he has and is fine with it✨(that's where young justice enters the scene lmao)
I PROMISE TO SHARE MORE SWEET N SOUR LORE SOON JUST 4 U🫵! I don't mind if ppl are curious about the aus lore. Just ask and I will probably answer!

@lavenderlama4325 it always makes me happy when others enjoy my aus, more reasons to share them!!!
Danny super suit was fun, like a mix of the traditional hero mixed with more tech stuff, based on Lex's one from a comic I don't remember anymore
I don't mind answering your questions
"Does Lex eventually become a decent father (that actually cares) to Danny? Will Danny be paired with anyone in particular? What is the young justices opinion on Danny and vice versa?"
Lex, believe it or not, is an ok-ish parent which is hilarious because he doesn't really change that much in the au. He is still evil but dials back from world domination to just having more influence and pulling the strings behind the scenes. At first taking care of Daniel was a PR stun, an investment but he got attached, like one of those dads that says they don't want a pet AT ALL just to end being the most attached to it lmao
I don't have plans for shipping in this au but who knows maybe I'll change my mind later! I can see him dating if someone asks him and his dad approves
Young justice is Worried, with a capital W, especially Kon. They think Danny is being held against his will, that he is another clone or just an orphan that doesn't have a choice (remember that not a lot is known about Danny just that he doesn't hide he is a hero and is Lex's adopted son)
Danny is living his best life and is lowkey annoyed that yj keep trying to "save him" from his dad. He is friendly/civil so long as they don't try and start their discussion about morals and what not(he KNOWS, he just doesn't care so long as they aren't the ones directly hurting people)

Sweet grape be upon u🫵

The now and then:
Daniel undersuit allows Lex and his people to see his vitals 24/7 which is why he uses it most of the time, be it under his clothes or just the suit while hanging around in his own bedroom(is comfortable!!). It also has the bonus of making feel safe
His PR team is going for a bright, approachable and young vibe so they let him have long hair(because "is relatable and against the usual gender norms, which will win over the younger population"). Is also why his costume is look-at-me-green(which is a good color to hide his blood)
His handlers in the auction wanted him to look older, sharp and neat(ugh, which is why he becomes hostile/dry towards people like the Bats or teen heroes who think nothing can be too bad
The Melo verse! /j

Just the aus I love the most. I have a few others that haven't seen the light of day
Funny story not so funny but on the week that I didn't do anything art related I ended up hurting my dominant hand in various ways lmao BUT NAOW you guys will get new art every single day for at least 15 days!!! YIPPIE
METROPOLIS NEW SWEETHEART!!

The camera loves him and he loves the camera!

sorry for the bad quality,i do NOT have a phone rn
-If you're really part of them, do you think history would have wanyed you to have lived?!
-YES!, why don't you? in me ...you see THEM!
LOOK AT THEIR FACES,HEAR THEIR SCREAMS! IMAGINE THEIR TERROR!!!
WIP

Why did he get to live?
Why did everyone else but him die?
They were supossed to escape together
Danny did die that day, just not like he wished he had...



Don't really like how the 1st one looks like so i'll probably draw It again in the future.
This Danny likes to float almost all the time
Alone together

He doesn't know how long he was there, holding onto them, or why. He just knew he didn't want to let go.
He didn't want to be alone
