DP x DC: Custody
Do you know what ghosts are?
Okay you presumably have an idea of the concept, but are you aware of what ghosts are in the DC universe?
In DC, when you die, you tend to go where you think you should, with a couple notable exceptions. Your soul goes where you think it should.
A ghost is a soul that has not moved on to an afterlife, has escaped an afterlife(usually hell), or some force keeps them from moving on. The Ghost Zone? That’s just where souls that don’t have an afterlife to go to but don’t want to move on to Death’s domain
Selling your soul? That’s just giving custody of your ghost to someone, and they collect upon death. a bit more akin to selling yourself into future slavery, but you get the point
Tricky thing is only one being can collect on a soul/ghost and upon death John Constantine has some pissed of Demons ready to collect
That’s going to be one hell of a custody battle, and Danny counts as a neutral third party since he doesn’t belong to a specific afterlife
He can already feel the headache

Not So Ethical Adoptions;
Summary: Not So Ethical Adoptions...
Or the story of how Honest John and Gideon became parents.
Trigger warnings: child abandonment, unethical ways of paying off debts, angry mobs, etc.
For @casinotrio1965 .
------------------------------------------------------------
“Hey Gideon I'm home—is that a human baby?” Honest John asked, dumb struck. Nearly dropping the take out bag from Ursula’s fish and chips in his shock.
Because yes, his cat companion was holding a tiny red headed human baby.
One that was most certainly not there this morning when he left.
“Yes. I was thinking of naming her Julianna.” Gideon didn't look up from the cooing baby, as he continued to play with it's hands.
Not noticing the look on his partner’s face.
“No. No! Absolutely not. We are not keeping that thing!”
“But it's for us!” The cat whined. The baby mimicked him.
“I seriously doubt that. Where did you get it?” The fox replied, rolling his eyes.
“Some man came by to pay off that Green Woman’s debet.”
John's eyes nearly jumped out of his head at that.
“And you accepted it?! What happened to only taking trades and money?!”
“It was the baby or us being empty handed.”
“We wouldn't have been empty handed for long if you just waited! Now put your coat on! We're going to find that green woman and the man and return it so that we can get an actual payment.”
------------------------------------------------------------
“Daddy! Papa!” Little six year old Julianna cried, running to hide behind them.
“What is it Julie?” Gideon asked, wrapping an arm around her.
“There's an angry mob outside…”
Honest John groaned. “She's definitely your daughter.”
“How come she's always my daughter when she's in trouble?”
“You know why!”
“No I don't —”
“Daddy! Papa! The mob’s getting closer!”

full quotes under the cut!
“Fuck this family reunion. What do you think you're doing? You're just sitting here, happy, after everything you've done?”
"I'm done with this guy, I'm fucking done. All he does is manipulate. He lies. He destroyed my UFO. He thought I'd work for him. You think everyone's just gonna listen - "
"I've not yet forgotten Quackity's heinous crimes against my heritage. The UFO explosion is a crime which I will not, and cannot forgive. I've been trying to get closer to everyone in order to appear friendly. However, Slime appears to be Quackity's new puppet. Disappointing. I notice the weekly pattern. This puts a dent in my plan to seize power through friendly diplomacy. I have to change my strategy. I'll have to strategize through Slime and try to squeeze him out of any valuable information. And when the time seems right, I'll do whatever I have to do."
"I really wouldn't thought I would have said this, but maybe you are right. Maybe we are on the same page. Because, sure, as much as wealth, money, diamonds, that's great! But I do agree... that I think it would better for both of us if we went down in history."
"-And I really-I really wanna elaborate that I don't think there'll ever be a point in time, where I respect you as a person."
"Everyone knows about the- the Purpled house! I mean... every... y'know... you look around... and like "Oh yeah! The Purpled's house, couldn't imagine the server without Purpled's house!" Everyone remembers it! No one would notice if it was blown to smithereens... Hm... blown to smithereens."
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't just kill you right now."
"Bad, to be frank with you, Quackity just had the better price."
"I am Switzerland. Keep that in mind, guys, I am Switzerland, it is true. I don't fight unless I have to. But when I do fight, I will win."
honorable mentions: “I’ve never heard you say a single truth” and “fuck”

Bueno pues he visto John Wick y el cine como medio existe para pelis así. O sea pelis contemplativas y lentas y metafísicas muy bien pero fliparse porque se puede muy bien también.

Gregory Katz from ballen isles and Okeechobee Florida
Dashing Gregory Katz is my cousin. What kind of a dunce doesn't check on his cousin or call back with everything that has gone on? I wonder if that is what his father told him to do? MMM I wonder why? Maybe they know something that I do not? Do you think if someone tried to kill your cousin or nephew you might give them a call and check on them or return their telephone call?
