Alright, since it’s no longer 2 in the morning and my head’s a bit clearer, I present to you:
Liminal Riddler
So, not everyone in the DC fandom knows about this, and I’d bet that even less people in the Phandom do, but at one point, the Riddler had cancer. Had, past-tense, because he cured it. With the Lazarus pits.
And yeah, not everyone who gets dipped in the pits has to be liminal, but one would assume that the sudden replacement of a large number of malignant cells throughout the body is gonna do something.
The Riddler already acts quite a lot like a DP ghost in some interpretations anyways. He’s got a strict gimmick that he genuinely can’t part ways with, he’s campy and fun, he’s incredibly violent, etc.
Also, the way that he would react to this whole thing would be funny as hell.
Do I think the Riddler would really care if the GiW was after him? No. This is Gotham, the government is constantly going after him anyways.
Do I think he would care if Danny was being hunted down by the same people, and his parents were involved? Somewhat. He probably wouldn’t care about Danny specifically, at least not right away, but a young boy running terrified from his own parents would definitely bring back some bad memories, and he would probably give him a hand (if for no other reason than to get back to plotting crimes instead of dealing with childhood trauma).
Do I think the Riddler, whose entire thing is being smarter than everyone else, would care if the GiW somehow let slip that they thought he didn’t have human intelligence? That they believed him to be nothing but an echo of human life?
It’s not even a question. He would be the most insufferable person in Gotham within the hour. Genuinely nothing could stop him, especially not if Danny was helping jailbreak him from Arkham every time he got caught.
Almost every major road is closed. Every warehouse on the Docks is on fire. Somehow, they managed to color the clouds and smog a bright green.
The natives of Gotham would probably get those anti-ghost laws and acts overturned faster than the Justice League, if only to make the Riddler stop. His traps and games aren’t even lethal at this point (due to Danny’s insistence), but they’re so genuinely annoying that the general population is about to beat the GiW agents to death themselves just to get the Riddler to quit it already.
Also, I think that during this whirl of chaos, the Riddler would become quite fond of Danny.
He’s a bright young boy who’s very fond of wordplay, and inventive enough to keep up with him. Aside from the inevitable crisis of “oh god I’m becoming the bat,” he’d probably be happy to take on Danny as his protégé. Even if the boy won’t let him kill anyone (rude), he’s a terrifying getaway driver and can turn the both of them invisible and intangible, making Arkham escapes a breeze.
Hell, the Riddler would probably be willing to make a false identity for the two of them, just so he could get the boy proper schooling.
(Yes, he thinks that the entire education system is a sham and that he could do much better, but Danny wants to go into aerospace engineering, and the Riddler isn’t one to squander someone’s interest in learning.)
(Also, Echo and Query would find the whole thing hilarious)

It took Foolish and Jaiden about 58 minutes to break into the vault. The method that actually got them in only took about 8 minutes.
8 FREAKING MINUTES.
All together - including time to fix the vault + rename all the reinforced blocks - took them 1hr and 26 minutes.

flowey having such a low tolerance for frustration is endlessly funny. there are a thousand hilarious ironic hells you could put that guy into and most of them are some flavor of "has to deal with an everyday annoyance." cringe conversation with sans. getting stuck in traffic. can't beat a level of candy crush. homework he doesn't like. item got stuck somewhere he just barely is incapable of reaching. can't figure out where he put his stuff. hell is real for flowey undertale and it comes in the form of daily inconveniences

this just in: the gamers are upping their fight club game. Daisy figured out if she snags her claws on Gus’s collar that it gets a good hold on him without hurting him (and therefore causing the fight game to end early) but also these are quick release collars so sometimes she grabs his collar and it just falls the fuck off and she gets SO MAD

BBH: *making argument about how their latest squabble was foolish's fault*
BBH: I was basing off, the assumption that you hadn't done anything else! [...]
Foolish: And I based it off the assumption that you're a BITCH.
BBH: Ohhh, okay okay. [...]
Foolish: *loses it*
BBH: *little chuckle*
