Foolish Misinterpretation by TheWritingOwl

Summary
Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. In those days we really believed that to be the world"s one and only truth.
When Danny first watched Fullmetal Alchemist, he"d laughed at the idea of equivalent exchange. Losing his leg hadn"t gotten him anything. It only took from him--his ability to walk, his place in the league, his brother. Sure, his new life in Amity was fine, but it didn"t take away the great losses he"d experienced. None of it felt equal.
Years later, Danny finds himself in Gotham, prey to the people his mother had thrown him to. He"s prepared to lose his life, but then Damian appears, and suddenly Danny understand the desperation Edward felt when he"d sacrificed his arm so readily for Alphonse.
I don"t think of equivalent exchange as a law of the world anymore. I think of it as a promise, between my brother and me, a promise that someday we"ll see each other again.

Summary
The residence of Gotham were used to rogue attacks and most didn"t bat an eye to the extravagance that was the Joker even as everyone watching as he live filmed his assault on the bank in a numb kind of horror that you could only acquire through exposure.
He was holding a bunch of hostages, asking the watchers what he should do with them with a wide unhinged smile and maliciously gleeful eyes that watched his many victims squirm in terror.
Until he looked at the skrunky kid in a ratty hoodie that looked like he could be a Wayne adoptee.
And both froze for a good minute.
And like some kind of demented switch got flipped the kid snarled and (still with his hands tied behind his back mind you) launched himself at the Joker.

Summary
Phantom groaned dramatically. “I know. I’m an embarrassment.”
Dani nodded with a serious expression, “Yeah, you are.”
They were quiet for a few seconds before they both broke out in laughter. Maddie watched the two joyous figures with an increasing sense of dread. They acted just like teenagers, like children.
Maddie and Jack start to notice things in their interactions with Phantom that doesn’t fit in with their exiting theories about ghosts. But they couldn’t be wrong… Could they?
