I lost the prompt for this, but it was basically "Danny ends up at Gotham Academy For Reasons, tries to annoy the Lone Sane Man Damian into being friends with him for a week, which ends with Damian dragging this irritation in an alley, giving in to his anger enough to punch him, only to learn that's the best way to start making friends with a ghost." In my version, Vlad has decided to focus more on becoming a Father Figure to Danny and simultaneously working to undermine his position as Phantom, starting with stepping down as mayor, moving to Gotham, and convincing Maddie and Jack to allow him to fund Danny's entry into the prestigious Gotham Academy where Danny could get the academic support he needs to succeed, pointing out Danny's abysmal grades and attendance as proof of this necessity. They agree, sign temporary guardianship over to Vlad, and Danny is forcibly sent to the preppiest school in New Jersey.
He doesn't fit in with the rich crowd because he gives off strong middle class vibes. He doesn't fit in with the scholarship crowd because, though he's smart, his study skills have gone to crap and his entry grades are only accepted because Vlad had the money to pay for his tuition, and most everyone in between is put off because, if he was considered weird in Amity, he's seen as a freak here. In Gotham, that translates to potential rogue, so even the teachers treat him with suspicion (ignore that this is the best way to push Danny into roguedom. We're going for realism, not how troubled kids should be treated to ensure they grow up feeling loved and not in need of villainous coping mechanisms).
The only one that treats him neutrally and has, when the bullying escalated (to a level of annoyance for him) defended Danny is a kid with Middle Eastern features he learns, with some work, is named Damian. Damian lets him eat with him. Damian is effortlessly cool without being a bully. Damian is even liminal! That's all Danny needs to start thinking maybe, just maybe, he could become friends with the one guy that tolerates him sitting at the same lunch table. He's made friends with more prickly people, after all!

Ra’s: Who turned the Lazarus Pit purple?
Nyssa: Are those bath bombs?
Talia: *calmly sipping her tea*
Ra’s, to Talia: It’s one of your spawn again, I just know it.
Talia: I’ll have you know my children are both perfect angels.
Nyssa: *poorly concealed snort*
Meanwhile, back in Gotham:
Jason: I have to admit, I’m impressed.
Bruce: Jason, stop encouraging this.
Jason: What? I’m not encouraging it, I’m just saying it’s impressive.
Steph: Thanks. I just felt like I wasn’t contributing much to the annoy Ra’s effort.
Bruce: No, no effort. There is no effort.
Tim, walking into the Cave: Hey, anyone know why Ra’s texted me asking for an alibi?
Jason: It was Steph?
Tim: Seriously? That’s amazing! What’d you do?
Bruce: STOP ENCOURAGING THIS.
Tim: What? it’s just Ra’s. We annoy him all the time.
Bruce: *one more thread of mental sanity snapping in the background*
Bruce: I don’t want to know, but I feel compelled to, so by show of hands, who here routinely pokes a bear with a stick?
Jason: I’m telling Ra’s you called him that. *whips out his phone and begins texting*
Bruce: I did not… Not the point. Can you all just PLEASE stop antagonizing a supervillain?
Damian: Grayson said a little harmless teasing was a sort of bonding activity between family members.
Jason: Yeah, just letting gramps know we’re thinking about him.
Damian: And how we will one day dismantle his entire legacy.
Tim, cackling: I’m telling him you called him gramps. *begins texting*
Steph: Wow, and all I did was get some bath bombs in the Lazarus Pit.
Damian: My respect for you has increased, Brown.
Steph: Thanks, kid. Your mom helped.
Bruce: *pained sounds*
Later:
Talia: So what are your thoughts on Jason?
Steph: Yeah, he’s pretty cool.
Talia: Would you be willing to consider entering into a…
Jason: MOM! STOP TRYING TO SET ME UP!
Steph: Uh…
Talia, shrugging: It was worth a try.

Listen if you ever think your writing is bad and you want to give up, a published author beloved by thousands (I don’t understand why) wrote the line “When he was wiping that cow shit on me, it was quite possibly the most turned-on I have ever been.”
what I’m saying is please don’t let Colleen Hoover win, don’t give up on your work.
