Title: Evil Applicants
Fandoms: Danny Phantom, Young Justice
Rating: PG-13, talking about sex and cussings and things.
Word Count: 436
Timeline: For YJ, it follows and ties into the events of #24: Just Us, and thus, is set in AU. For DP, it's between the episodes Livin' Large and Boxed Up Fury and ties in with the Pumpkins continuity.
Summary: Match and Inertia have found common enemies within the ranks of Young Justice...but two villains isn't enough. Who will make the cut...?
---
Inertia--known only to few by his true name, Thaddeus Thawne--sat amongst a mountain of paperwork, a scowl on his face. Wearing the black and green "reverse Impulse" costume, with short-cropped blonde hair, he looked similar to his form of origin--Bart Allen, teen speedster and member of Young Justice--while having an air of villainous maturity he prouded himself on.
Across from Inertia, likewise buried in papers, sat Match--a clone of Superboy. Both teen villains wore scowls that could peel the paint off a house.
"How about this one?" Match asked finally, breaking a long silence. He thrust a sheet he'd been examining across the table they both occupied. "Rumor has it Young Justice is looking to recruit Danny Phantom into their ranks. If we want to go pound-for-pound with them, we should get one of his ghostly villains to aid us."
Inertia let an aggrivated sigh pass his lips. He reached out and palmed the paper, dragging it closer; standing on the sheet with a guitar in one hand and the other displaying a stark middle finger was a female ghost with flaming blue hair and pale skin.
"'Ember McLain'..." Inertia frowned. "The pop princess? I don't think so. We might need some evil girls in this little gang of ours, but not one that makes shitty music."
"Hey, she's gotten better."
Inertia slowly brought his gaze up to meet Match's.
"You're kidding. You listen to that junk?"
"I don't like her original stuff," Match admitted, shrugging. "But she's improving. She's more punk now."
"Good Lord, you're some kind of villainous fallacy."
"Stuff it. Look, if you don't want Ember, that's fine, I can bone her on my own clock. But there's another you should check out."
Another paper crossed the table, and Inertia picked it up. His eyes combed over it, and he felt a grin tugging at the corners of his mouth.
"'Youngblood.' Nice name...he looks like a kid, but it says here that it renders him invisible to adults and children that think they're adults..."
"Handy, right?" Match gave a cruel smirk. "That'd already give us an edge over Robin the Teen Dipshit and The Ray. And if any adult heroes get involved with us..."
"Yes, I do like that. Oooh, and he has eyebeams." Inertia allowed the tugging sensation to pass, and a full-on wicked grin crossed his face. "Okay, I like this one."
He set the paper off to the side, the only section of the table not already covered, with a triangle-tag reading the word "POTENTIAL MEMBERS" nearby. It was their first positive applicant of many.
