Accidental Baby Acquisition - Blog Posts

been thinking about a scenario where Hunter accidentally acquires a baby brother after the show 🤠

Danny didn't think that falling through a natural portal would result in him stumbling upon a cult. Or that said cult currently was busy with "punishing" a small five year old child.

Really there was only one thing he could do and accidental kidnapping usually happened to him as the kidnapee not the kidnapper.

Well, there was a first time for everything. Taking the small child with him into the infinite realms may have been a panic reaction, and he may have accidentally summoned Frostbite to check over the boy.

Thankfully the kid, Damian he said his name was, was liminal and fine with healing in Danny's castle before Danny would bring him to his father. According to Damian his father didn't like the cult ("It's the league of assasins... not a cult.")

To be honest he was very much out of depth and so very confused when he had to find his way to the crime ridden city of Gotham and then somehow get the attention of the bat vigilante. Batman was tall and very much as scary as a ghost.

Damian looked out from under King Phantom's cloak of stars and galaxies and took in the person who was said to be his father.

"You are shorter than I thought..."

"Hn." Damian turned to look up at the being that had helped him heal and taken care of him for the last two months.

"I have decided. King Phantom shall be my father from now on!" Damian proceeded to hide back behind the being and into the spacious cloak.

"Uhm... I don't think that's how that works bud." King Phantom said, he was interrupted by laughter. Glancing past the being Damian saw Batman and Robin, as well as Nightwing, the last two were laughing while Batman looked slumped.

"I have decided King Phantom is my father, so he is!"

"This is gold!" Nightwing was now struggling to stand up straight.

"I... uh... I'm not sure what to do in this situation?" King Phantom said, Damian leaned forward a bit to glare at him.

"Take me back to your castle father!" Nightwing seemed to struggle with breathing, he was now wheezing.

Danny would like to say for the record that he wasn't prepared for these things! Somehow that strange situation ended with him in the batmobile on the way to the batcave so that Damian would hopefully want to stay with his actual father.

Oh this is AMAZING!!!

ALSO Wait I Just Realized Something.

NOTENRIQUE.

He would be like Somewhere in the Range of 13-15 At that point right? Would The Trollhunters even Realize that he’s a Changeling??

If they went to go get Baby Enrique from the Darklands then what would their Cover Be For Notenrique (Assuming that he’s switched over to their side by that point)?

Actually on that Note how would they Explain Baby Enrique to People Not in the Trollhunters Circle? Accidental Baby Acquisition? Adoption? Would Claire Parent Him? Would She and Jim Co-Parent??

More on the topic of Merlin being a piece of shit

Merlin did expect Jim to be a teen. He said it himself. He said he’s been off by 14 years, which would, if we assume that it’s +14 years, and not that he expected Jim to be 2 yo, which would bring our boy to 30.

30!

Can you imagine the actual difference that would have made???

A 30 yo is an adult, with formed believes and some established achievements. A 30 yo finished high school, went to college, finished college, had a job, had a long-term relationship, maybe even lived apart from his mother, basically someone who already has some sort of personal individual existence. A 30 yo is fully responsible for his decisions, or at least should be. A 30 yo has life experiences to fall back on.

A 16 yo has none of that.

And Merlin understands that. Merlin makes a choice for him, knowing full well that this child with anxiety and issues and a protector complex will do as planned if the pressure is applied in all the right places. Which is exactly what he did.

Honestly, I need a fic where James Lake Jr, a 30 yo man who works at a local high cuisine restaurant and also is part-time Home Ec teacher at Arcadia High who, on the way to school in the morning discovers the amulet.

I need his gf, who he lives with, the leading actress of the town’s troupe, to be strangely concerned for him picking glowing stuff on the street.

I need his best friend, the headliner of the Arcadia Radio Station, to be convinced that Maybe We Should Not Talk About This On The Radio.

I want Jim in the teacher’s lounge at 10 am drinking bad coffee and making fun of Strickler cause “Man, you must really age well, since you look EXACTLY the same as you did when you taught me history. You are what, sixty now?”

I want Barbara, the head of the clinic, asking Jim over dinner if he is ever going to marry that girl, because it looks like the two of them are pretty damn ready for that. She is not asking for grandchildren, that’s their deal, but it’s been a while since she has been to a nice wedding.

And most importantly, I want Jim to look Merlin in the eye and tell him to fuck off.

I NEED
