Summary
Following the arrest of the Drs Fenton, Bruce takes Danny home as his newest ward. It's nothing he hasn't done before.

late at night, when the nightingale sings by Imshookandbi

Summary
Stumbling blindly through Gotham's night was not how Danny expected his evening to go -- but to be fair, Vlad injecting him with blood blossom extract was also NOT how he was expecting his evening to go. So it's a night of new surprises, and really Danny just wants to get away from his godfather as soon as possible before the man catches up to him, or before the blood blossom currently coursing through his veins and eating him raw killed him.
Vlad is a man that likes to hide in the dark, it's unfortunate for him that Danny's learned to be a thing that hides in there too. From the corner of his unfocused eye he spots a man with horns dripping in shadows, hiding in an alleyway. Danny knows a kindred spirit when he sees one.

Summary
Clockwork was not usually the type to meddle. He preferred to watch from afar, monitoring and observing. Unless, of course, something forced his hand. The new Ghost King was a child, one in a very precarious position. It would be far to easy for him to be pushed too far and end up as a danger to the universe. The ghost of time had no choice but to step in.
aka Clockwork sends Danny to a universe where he'll be safe until he can take up the mantle of Ghost King, a dimension far away from the Fentons and other ghost hunters. Danny is less than thrilled, especially when he starts developing a soft spot for some local bats.

If You Give a Bat a Burger by Cielle_Noire

Summary
Strange things are going on in Gotham: A series of crimes linked only by a sentence uttered. A drug that no one seems to be selling, but lots of people are taking. An old enemy reborn, or someone pretending to be him. Graffiti that can't be photographed by normal means. Bartenders disappearing without a trace. John Constantine is also there.
Danny wants nothing to do with any of it. He just wants to sell burgers and survive. Actually, he'd like to go home again, but since that isn't possible, he'll stick with burgers.
Gotham's vigilante's have other plans.
This is why Danny doesn't do favors.

All he needs to do is survive two years until he can go back to live in Amity Park. Something dark is growing in him though, and it's stoking the bitterness and anger that burns inside.

Summary
“If you ever find yourself in danger, go to Bruce Wayne. He will help you.”
His mother had loved him, in her own way. If she hadn’t, she wouldn’t have helped him escape. If she hadn’t, she would have dragged him back to the League of Assassins, to Grandfather. If she hadn’t, he’d be dead.
She loved him, but she loved the League more.
Jack and Maddie Fenton loved him too, they did, but they loved their work more.
They loved their work more.
--
After his parents react poorly to his reveal, Danny escapes to the only person he thinks can help him - Bruce Wayne. He doesn't know what to expect when he gets there, but it has to be better than where he is, surely? He certainly doesn't expect to be reunited with his long lost twin brother Damian. It's funny how things work out that way.
Danny is 16 years old, not Phantom Planet compliant

Summary
Danny punches some kid for Damian.
Damian approves of this new development.
Bruce is tired and worried AND suspicious. Not a great combination.
Dan just wants people to stop picking on his younger brother/younger self/past self/it's complicated.
Or; I'm a sucker for redeemed Dan Phantom, Danny and Damian friendships and adoption prone Bruce Wayne.
Or, Or; Look! It's a wild Damian and Danny! And their respective over protective guardians! What are they over protective of? No one knows! Shenanigans and Bruce concerning abound! Hooray!

Summary
Danny Fenton is not okay. TM.
Honestly? Just overall bad vibes.
But he's doing his best. Making it work. And trying not to become fully dead in the process.The Justice League is very concerned. But it's actually their fault they got involved so take that one, Batman.
John Constantine told them not to do the thing. They did it anyway.Or, Danny gets summoned by the League, and he actually kind of adopts them in the process. Because these big city heroes don't know anything about ghosts and who is he if he doesn't help them out? Besides, the Watchtower is in space. Danny's always wanted to go to space...
(I'm not really following any specific JL timeline, so like. Be prepared for 98% of everything to be *made up* and possibly *not real*.)

Summary
Daniel Fenton may be dead, but he wasn’t suicidal. Unfortunately, avoiding Batman and his vigilantes get a lot harder when he’s stuck in a seven year olds body in Gotham.
Clockwork so owes him for this.

In which Danny Fenton fixes a broken family, grows a bit as a person, and makes another technically-dead friend. Not exactly in that order.

A whole lifetime to prepare (WAIT, WHAT?!) by Narratiuncula

Summary
When Danny loses everyone he loves and will love in one day, he can only think of going to Clockwork. Danny soon finds out he has to be the new Ghost King. Clockwork tells him he could have a whole lifetime to prepare himself to ascend the throne.
Clockwork was as cryptic as ever and they are both dumbassess, so there is a misunderstanding. Danny gets a whole lifetime to prepare himself, but didn't understand he would LITERALLY get a whole lifetime.
And thus, he gets reincarnated as Daniel Al Ghul, Heir to the Demon and twin brother to Damian Al Ghul

Summary
Is it running from your problems if your problems consider you to be a dead imprint of consciousness that killed their son? Yes, but Danny tries not to think about how his nightmares of his parents trying to kill him came true when they found out he was Phantom.
After being on the run from his parents and the government for a couple of months, moving from town to town, Danny ends up in Gotham City and decides to risk staying in Batman's territory. He'd take the wrath of Batman over live vivisection via beloved parents or being studied and torn apart by the government. Besides, he's not a meta. Being dead is a medical condition.

Summary
He watches, for the umpteenth time and with a detached sense of horror, as the two boys so similar in age and appearance just barely miss each other. One lane apart, going in opposite directions. What would have happened, if that boy hadn’t squeezed between the isles? If they had been in one place together, would his parents have noticed that there were two of them?
Would they have left with the correct child, instead of the one they got?

Danny the Intern by NikkiPond for Jaykitten679
Fandoms: Danny Phantom, Batman - All Media Types, DCU
09 Nov 2023
Tags
Summary
Danny decided to intern at Wayne Enterprise. He's always so helpful, and polite, and gets the job done. He gets REALLY confused when his co-workers start acting weird: they would either pull him into another room; or make him do some outlandish task so far away, or a group of people suddenly surround him. It’s as if they are trying to hide him from someone.
Meanwhile, there is an unspoken agreement amongst the employees: Rule #4: DO NOT LET ANY WAYNES SEE HIM. Otherwise, they are going to lose their most helpful intern (and hopefully a permanent employee) because of those damn Wayne’s adopting addictions.
Though of course, it wasn’t long until they messed up Rule #4.

Summary
Red Hood finds a brutally injured Danny Fenton in a back alley during patrol just after the halfa has escaped the GiW. He can’t talk, and he is scared of any human around him. But Jason isn’t just any human, he saved him. An aura of death has always surrounded him. He felt safe. Maybe he can trust a human again after all.
Jason has no idea how to take care of this terrified and traumatized kid but he is certainly going to try. Whoever did something like this to a child is going to feel the wrath of Red Hood, riiiiight after he takes care of this kid first. And the less his brothers and Batman try and stick their noses into this the better
