When Jason found the underground bunker, he initially went in with the expectation of liberating some supplies from a bunch of weirdos Bruce had locked up last week. He didn't expect it to turn into a rescue mission.

Summary
Danny Fenton had nowhere to go and no one he could turn to without putting them in danger. Except, perhaps, the hero who'd cared for, respected, and trained Danny for all too short a time.
Dick Grayson had never told anyone he'd once been trapped in the Ghost Zone. He'd also never forgotten the promise he'd made sure to get from Danny Phantom.
Jason didn’t know what was going on but he was really very pissed that there was another kid with a y-shaped scar on their chest and eyes that feel like frozen reflections of home. Thankfully, there were suddenly several new targets for his rage and Dick seemed rather more inclined to join Jason than stop him.

Bookmarker's Notes
Jason sometimes forgot that Dickie had been Steph’s Batman, for a time. No one ever forgot he’d been Damian’s Batman, but he and Steph weren’t as obvious. Until something threatened one of them and Steph sounded like she was going to jam a Batarang down Jason’s throat.

“JL Dark’s been looking into the disappearing special entities, it’s not just ghosts, by the way, and several other phenomenon that this explains rather neatly."
-----
“Would help have been so terrible?” Wonder Woman asked.“You need to understand,” said Jazz, “that we were children, teenagers being hunted and suspected by our own parents. Parents who were the greatest authority on the subject of ghosts, authority that said ghosts didn’t feel. Weren’t sentient. Despite the fact that Danny was making friends as well as enemies, that his emotions were heightened, that all the ghosts we met seemed to act on emotion more than anything else.”
Jazz shook her head, the familiar motion of trying and failing to understand the complete lack of logic behind their parent’s actions and belief."Danny was surviving and adapting with a handful of young allies, fighting a war on multiple fronts against mostly adult ghosts and the authorities meant to help people.”
“The Justice League worked with the government, the government that we only knew from the GIW and their attempts to capture and kill any ghost they came across, including my brother. And it’s not like we knew Justice League Dark existed. We knew nothing. Nothing other than that authority repeatedly fucked us over.”
“There was also an incident or two that made it seem like I was a villain,” Danny added, “Didn’t think that would help my case. And one of my main enemies was the mayor for a while."
“Mind control is also very fucked up and leaves a lot of damaging confidence issues,”
-----
“Ghosts feel pain. We do. All we are is emotion, when it comes down to it. We feed off emotion, fear, yes, some of us, but any emotion. Joy, happiness, sadness, freedom, excitement, challenge. Different ghosts have different preferences but any emotion works if you’re desperate enough.”
----
“So,” Nightwing grinned. “King of the Infinite Realms, what do you say to an Alliance and Treaty with Earth as an independent Nation following the model of Themyscira, Atlantis, and other planetary nations? A treaty will supersede all probationary or proposed Acts and force a Play Nicely Rule with the government until everything can be ironed out.”Jazz nodded, her nails tapping slowly against the table. “It could work. I’ve read of similar treaties in the Zone existing with various entities at different points. There’s precedent. We’d be able to establish a lexicon and standard base of knowledge regarding Ectoplasmic-entities as well.”
Danny would also be able to add his own rules to the complicated mess of the Ghost Zone. Like visiting was allowed but please stop tearing up towns or expect a fist to your spectral throat.
-----
Danny watched for a moment longer, trying to read the patterns of the fight. Danny was probably always going to throw himself in the middle of a fight but that didn’t mean he couldn’t throw himself in at the exact right moment.
-----
“Fright Knight likes poetry along with smashing enemies to bits.”Red Robin gave Hood a Look. “Happy to meet your new best friend."

Summary
“Hi, I’m Buck, a firefighter with the 136,” for now, the thought crashes through Buck, leaving a sour taste in his mouth. “Uh, you’re both welcome to take a tour with us, if you’d like.” Buck awkwardly scratches at his neck, running a hand through his hair, unsure what else to do, and it spurs the man in front of him to take a large step forward up to Buck’s bed.
“Eddie,” he says, thrusting a hand to him, and Buck reaches over without a second thought. His whole palm feels electric, it smarts and carries the touch of Eddie, Eddie, that Buck feels it completely. He has no idea what’s happening to him. “Edmundo Diaz, but just Eddie though, uh, no one calls me Edmundo. Right. I’m a new nurse here, at Cedars-Senai. Oh –”
***
When Daniel Buckley lives a little longer, Evan Buckley dies a little more. And this is how Eddie Diaz saves him, a little later on.

Summary
It’s Damian’s fault that Drake is lying motionless and as pale as a corpse on the hospital bed. He was the sniper's target.
