Danny is the Crazy Old Man™️ of Gotham
So, the events of Danny Phantom happened decades ago
Like, Phantom Planet was one of the first instances of Superheroes in HISTORY. Early 1900's, just the Fentons were Insanely Ahead of their Time!
Danny is still a Halfa, but has allowed himself to grow old and live his best life before fully dying so he can accept his Throne in the Infinite Realms. He decides to experience Life in the fullest way possible, partying, drinking, making long lasting friendships that shape the lives of everybody he meets, all that!
Eventually, Danny's Party Life leads him to Gotham. And this place is just amazing!
It has all the comforts of Home, with so much more! He can Party! He can Fight! He can do anything he wants and nobody bats an eye, because a crazy old man getting into a fistfight in the middle of the road is just another Tuesday for Gotham!
He decides to spend the rest of his Mortal Life there. And this is still Early On in the DC Timeline, like, Batman Year 1 is happening Right Now.
He hangs around, befriends the local Homeless Population, and mostly just has the time of his Life! And he takes up the stereotypical Homeless Old Man look because why fight it? That's literally what he's going for!
He also unintentionally sets up a bunch of future events
He teaches Kid!Jason on his to steal Tires as repayment for driving off some muggers with a Baseball Bat (honestly he was looking forward to being mugged, it's a new experience after all)
He pulls Kid!Tim into an Alley after Tim gets caught out at night and gets chased by some Punks. He hides Tim behind a Dumpster and tricks the Punks into mugging him instead (Yay! He finally got mugged!)
He becomes kind of well known as the Old Man who wants to experience everything before he dies. He says as much too, not like he really has a reason to hide it. He just tells people "I want to live my life to the fullest, it don't matter if I live 10 more years or 10 more minutes, I'm gonna experience every second of it!"
He once walked into a Cloud of Fear Gas to see what it was like. Later he said it was a 6/10. "Not the worst thing I've had injected into my body!" He says with no Context.
He traded places with a Hostage during an active Crime Scene because he wanted to know what it's like.
He was once dared to take Batmans Utility Belt by another Homeless Guy as a joke, so he walked up to Batman later that night in full view of everybody else and just asked for his Belt. He gives up after a few minutes, and one guy asked "Why not fight him for it? It's an experience after all.". Danny replys "Nah, I've fought Vigilantes before. It was fun though, gotta say!"
...
This got away from me, but all this to say: Imagine the Bat Families Reaction when they find out "Crazy Old Danny" is PHANTOM. You know, THE FIRST SUPERHERO!
I imagine Constantine is having a stroll though Gotham after finishing up some business with Bruce, and just bumps into a homeless guy by accident.
Later that night:
Batman: Constantine, Why are you calling? Is it to do with the-
Constantine: Why the fuck is there a Homeless God in your City?
Batman: Wait wha-
...
Or imagine they know before Constantine meets him, and it goes instead like this
Constantine: Why the fuck is there a Homeless God in your City?!
Batman: You mean Old Man Danny? He's just a homeless guy? What do you mean?
Constantine: I swear on what's left of my Soul, that is a God.
Batman, a little shit: I don't think so, I would know (fully knows)

This may be a hot take, but Wes Weston would only work(for me) if he was like, a “crazy old man side character ” type of character except he’s just another student at Casper high. Like he isn’t a main character, but he’s just there, spouting off conspiracy theories in the background. Just a character that could jump off a ghostly investigation from Team Phantom. Or someone that Val could start an investigation from. Val could be the investigator person, as she already kinda is in canon. Wes is just there, a neat, fun little side character who is only an occasional nuisance. Maybe in a reboot style thing there can be a little ep in which one of his theories is right and then suddenly everyone believes every theory he’d ever had. You have seen episodes like this, you know episodes like this, and they are stupidly fun. His brother, Kyle should be his foil, and a bit of a Larry from gumball where he just works at every place but no one acknowledges this. Except Wes probably.
But yeah, that’s all I have about this idea. Oh, and I image him screaming almost every other sentence, being very animated.

carlos sainz.
“What is it?” You asked, head tilted to the side as you look up at your boyfriend. The Spaniard melted, muttering a curse to himself and running his hands through his thick hair. He felt hot, nervous for what the outcome of this discussion could be.
“Dios mío, ángel, it’s— it is not what you think— nothing bad. I am just embarrassed is all.” He reassured, big hands gripping at your shoulders. But he knew it was a bit bad, even his enabling family members were worried he’d freak you out if you saw. His movements were made to comfort you, but you could tell they were more self-soothing. Arthur had a similar habit whenever you got upset with him, too.
You only frowned, but it fueled Carlos’ panic.
“Mi amor, I will do whatever you ask-! You know this. I will let you in when it’s cleaned, I swear it.” He pulled you into his chest, arms fully embracing you. But you squirmed out of his hold, making him respond with an unhappy attempt to coo you back into comfort.
“You’re hiding something in there, Carlos. This is the first time I’m staying with you in your home since we started dating, let me see.” And at the sight of your big, beautiful, angry eyes, how could he refuse an Angel? With a twitch of his fingers, Carlos unlocked the door without any movement to push it open.
With a short huff, you pushed yourself through the door, only pausing at seeing at the sheer amount of merchandise that covered every surface. It was all you-themed, from posters and cut-outs, down to a body-pillow and even an outfit you’d only worn once for a runway show. There was a glass shelf with your old perfumes, newer ones too, and photos everywhere.
“Carlos….” You began, covering your mouth with your fingers and stepping further in.
“I know—! But I liked you so much before we started seeing each other and I- I am just a passionate man is all, my whole family says so—!” You cut off his red-faced rambling with a beaming grin.
“Ouah! I didn’t know you were a super fan before we met!” You giggled, mumbling to yourself in French about the various things he’d collected. “maybe you are a bit extreme, but it’s kind of cute, no?”
“¿En serio? Sí, mi perla!” He breathed shakily before grinning, “I should have known you’d understand! Mis hermanas se burlaron de mí, ¿sabes? But it was all silly…” (You’re serious? Yes, my pearl! My sisters teased me, you know?)
“What are you saying? Your sisters… something? I’m still learning, mon chéri.” You pout at him, in a much better mood now that you knew what your boyfriend was hiding behind the door he seemed so desperate to keep you away from.
He shook his head, hair messy after having run his fingers through it many times due to stress, “We should have dinner with them tonight while we’re still in Spain, I said. Let’s go back downstairs?”
“Why? Got anything weird?”
“Don’t say things like that, amor!”

daniel ricciardo.
“Danny…?”
“Shit-!” He jumped out of surprise, dropping the box he was reaching from the top shelf of the closet.
“Oh, I’m sorry, mon soleil!” You squeaked, jumping back as well. You hadn’t meant to scare him, but it wasn’t your fault he was so focused in the dead of night. You were just curious is all. The box he dropped was was rectangular in shape, but easily bigger than a shoebox. You shot him a sleepy grin, “What do you have there?”
He sighed, shaking his head, “Why are you up, sleepy girl? Get back to bed, I’ll be right there. Didn’t mean to wake you up.”
“I’m up because you’re up.” You wrinkled your nose, inching closer to him with a small blanket in your arms. You tried to get a glimpse of what fell out of the box, but Daniel wrapped himself around you so you couldn’t see. He wrestled the blanket from your fingers, careful not to be rough with long nails, and threw it over your head with smile.
As you wrestled, your boyfriend only laughed and placed kisses on any part of you he could without being hit by your flying limbs, “Pretty things like you should be asleep. Your brothers would kill me if they knew I disturbed your beauty rest.”
“Are you trying to hide something from me?” You pulled the blanket off your head, hair a mess.
Daniel froze, jaw clenching as he tried to hold a toothy smile. But he didn’t have it in him to lie to you. The moment was completely still, before you finally broke eye contact and crept passed him to see the mess on the floor. You could hear Danny gulp as you plucked the first item from the ground; a pretty, navy blue set of lacy underwear. Yours, yes. But from ages ago, you swore you lost them. Then there were a few pieces of jewelry, a lipstick tube, a silk scrunchie, a press-on nail, a red heel, and two pieces of now-hardened chewing gum. All yours from various points of this past year.
“Daniel,” no, not the first name, he begged internally, squeezing his eyes shut, deciding to just wait for the inevitable disgust and rejection. You never called him by his full first name, only sweet ‘danny’s his way, sometimes ‘mon soleil’ or ‘sunshine’.
“You know you can just ask for my things, yes? You don’t have to take.” You were looking right up at him, navy colored panties still in your hand like you didn’t even mind that he took them. His reasoning couldn’t have been pure, you know that.
You hummed, pulling at his fingers so you can shove the underwear into his balled up fist, “lá.”
“Perfect girl.” He muttered, pulling you back into him and dragging you to bed, “give me the pair you have on then, yeah?”

It wasn’t always like this with you— you used to be just Charles “track terror” Leclerc’s pretty little sister, a little girl. But now it was years later and you’ve become something perfect and irresistible— something he can’t live without. He knows he’d resorted to some immoral, if not a little creepy, behaviors, but it’s not like he’s one of those guys that would ever hurt you. No, you’re a deity to him. He told his sister about his feelings at one point (even thought about showing her the shrine), but she told him— “This is all because you watched You!” The Netflix show that follows a stalker.
So he took down the shrine— moving most of it into his bedside drawer and the rest under his bed. But he realized he didn’t think it all the way through when he had you in his room for the first time; all pretty and perfect and curious.
“Good race, Maxie.” You hopped back onto the bed, your hair bouncing as you landed, “You’re so tense and for what, huh?”
Max had just a little bit of shame about the whole thing, but maybe not too much. I mean, his body definitely felt some kind of physical guilt or something if you’re judging him by the shaking and sweating— but his mind was happy. You were here with him in his home. In fact, the physical reaction might just be from seeing you curled up in his bed. But you’re close to finding out how… intense he was. (As his mother would say.)
“Sorry, lief, I’m just tired and you’re distracting me by being cute.” He smiled down at you as he began to change, “you need a shirt to wear?”
“Yes, s'il te plaît. Hey, can I put my bracelets in here—? oh!” He’d barely turned his back for a second, just long enough to remove his shirt, but that’s all it took for you to pull the drawer open and see the copious amount of photos of you (some edited to have him in them) and unsent love letters.
“It’s not a shrine— I’m not a creep! It’s just some things I made back before we got together—! You weren’t supposed to see them!” He was trying to shove some of the papers back in, but you were already skimming one of the letters.
“Mijn hart,” he winced at seeing the one you had— one of the more unhinged ones. The worst of it was in Dutch, so that worked out for him at least.
“Oh c’mon, Maxie! It’s kind of sweet! You had such a big crush on me! It’s a little hot, even.”
He grew even more red and fidgety at that, “Shit.”
You giggled at the words you could understand before he wrestled the page out of your grip. You grabbed him and pressed a kiss to his cheek before he could stray too far.
“From Max Verstappen-Leclerc, hm?”

“Can’t I just grab a hoodie, Osc?” You questioned as he held you in place on the counter, from his spot between your legs, still in his race suit.
“You don’t need one, Lovey, it’s hot.” He pressed himself into you so he could feel you breathe better. You’d asked for a jacket the moment you’d entered his freezing trailer just after the race. He saw you go for the closet and quickly redirected you onto the counter.
“Non, you’re hot because you just raced in a little car for hours and now you’re all over me. I am normal temperature.”
“Cold?”
“Yes.”
“Then get closer, I’m hot.”
You huff obnoxiously like the pretty spoiled girl you are and Oscar can feel the rush of serotonin he got just from the sound. He knew this is the part where you’d get cute and pretend to pick a fight, his sweet thing. But bad timing— he’s desperate to hide his secret now.
“I can’t get any closer to you if I trieddd. What? You have a girl hiding in that closet? Hm?” He scoffed into your shoulder, but stiffened, knowing just what was behind that door.
You gasped dramatically, likely playing it up to get what you wanted (a tactic you used with your brothers, Oscar noticed), “You do! Irréelle!”
“I don’t!” His face shot up from your shoulder, brows furrowed, but he didn’t let you go, “You know I don’t like any other girls!”
“Then you need to show me so I can be sure! And I’m still cold.” You crossed your arms and pulled your knees together to get him to back up.
“I can’t.” He choked out. “There’s— it’s just— I have this thing—”
You hopped down and booked it across the trailer before he could reach out and stop you, yanking the door open to see what your new boyfriend was hiding.
You breathed out a dramatic sigh of relief at the sight, “Goodness, Osc.” Rather than finding a person, you instead found some sort of… collection? Collage of yourself and your things? Photos mostly, magazines, and lots of hearts drawn on articles about you.
Oscar grabbed you by the shoulders and quickly spun you around into him, slamming the door, “You saw?”
Looking up at him with big eyes, you nodded, “Yeah, why? You really like me that much?”
“What? Yes— yeah I do. You—? Okay.”

pierre gasly. | kika gomes.
“I’m prepared to blame you for this if Charles finds it.” Pierre breathed, looking at the start of his girlfriend’s collection of your things. Kika scoffed, a smile playing at her lips as she re-organizes your makeup. Mostly lip balms, you’d let her borrow some of your things, not knowing she wasn’t going to give any of it back. Kika even managed to get a few skirts from you as well. The small framed photo of you sitting in her vanity was just a personal touch.
Pierre would be lying if he said he wasn’t impressed, but he could say he wasn’t surprised. He and Kika were a good couple, a good duo in general, but especially when it came to drawing you in. Because Pierre was such a good friend to Charles, it came pretty easy; Charles was easier on him around you. Unfortunately, that grace didn’t extend to Kika just because they were dating. Charles had something of a sixth sense for when pretty girls liked his pretty sister; so he was on to Kika. Where at the beginning it was nothing to get you alone with them, it was now next to impossible.
“Pierre? Kika? Are you home?” Wow it’s like they could hear your pretty voice— oh wait they gave you a key. To their apartment. In Monaco, where you live and you can really just waltz in and see all of the things they took (—yes they, Pierre is a thief too—)
Like two naughty school children, the couple shot up to cover what they’d done before you could reach their bedroom. This was their fault naturally, none of yours at all, they were the ones who encouraged you to come over whenever physically possible.
“Grab everything and I’ll distract her!” Kika whispered, rushing to slip out of the room.
Before the ‘not fair-’ could slip from his lips, his girlfriend was off to catch you, brushing passed him and leaving the door cracked. He could hear your surprised greeting, a cute squeak escaping you, before Kika saying something like ‘Oh, Pierre is busy now’, then silence. Pulling the handle back just an inch, he peaked outside to see Kika’s lips not even a centimeter from your own, her hands gripping your jacket for dear life.
“Oh, pretty girls, ce n'est tout simplement pas juste.” Slipped out of his mouth before he could stop it. Your eyes shot to his, but Kika’s remained trained on your face. After just a second, your gaze drifted to Kika’s vanity behind him.
The couple froze, you saw. Pierre pulled the door shut behind him as Kika’s mouth opened to form words.
“Oi! Get your hands off my little sister, huh? Démon impoli et pratique, seriously.” Charles slipped into the living room from the front hallway, having obviously accompanied his little sister in her visit.
“Non, Charlie, Kika helped me when I almost tripped.” You smiled at your brother, quickly covering for them, “I was just coming to see if I could get my jean skirt back?”
You looked up at her so sweet and she thinks you’re blushing—“Oh.” She squeaked, “yes, no problem. Pierre.”
“I’ll get it for her, mate.”
“surveille ta copine. je ne suis pas aveugle, mate.”

Your man (s girlfriend) is definitely creepy, girl.

I'm back with a part 4 if you want to do it it's kind of more of a crack write I just need Klarion trying to explain the family tree
But not explaining how he was made at all So Young Justice and the Justice League are now convinced that a the Ghost King was a teenage parent who is now 27 years old and just passed college with a degree in astronomy and machinery
Klarion's other parent is a a crazy fruit loop 64 year old millionaire who went to college with Klarion's Mom parents who had an emotionally unhealthy obsession with his mom's mother and then it passed on to his mom.
And he has an older sister who is technicality a clone of his mom but also has the bastards DNA so fundamentally making Ellie Vlad Master and Mom's first born kid but there's six other siblings that Klarion had that died back a while back but Mom got granddad who's apparently the time lord AKA Cronos which is a whole another long story to go back in time and save those kids get them fixed up and now Klarion technicality has seven older siblings which all do their own things
And then he starts mentioning his uncle who is a 9 ft yeti his technicality auntie who is a medieval ghost princess who can turn into a dragon his auntie Pandora and his his grandfather cronos
My names for the six other clone children are Donald (he/him), Cecelia (they/she), Bartholomew(Them/They), Kyle AKA Bite(He/It), Brutus(He/They), and then there's Danna (She/Her) who actually really like the name Dan and asked Klarion if could have it when Klarion changed his name
Sorry if this is a little bit too much I've just really been thinking about au for this after the last part you made I hope this helps you with your writing or at least makes you laugh but I really love the idea of Danny's AKA somewhat clone children and finding their own personalities and and fighting themselves out of just being failed clone of their mom also I love the idea of Danny going back in time to save the rest of the clone kids cuz now he's a mature adult who wants to save their lives and wants them to grow into their own people.
(⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)
I probably did way to much research into all the fandoms I am in to see what I could tie into this... And yet this feels shorter than it should but I also currently lack the time to add more. But for now I hope this will be satisfactorily.
Also this family tree idea especially the part of saving the melted clones. LOVE IT!
So even though it took me a while! here is Part 4 you inspired! Thanks so much for the ask!
------------------
"Dude, you are making us only curious!" Impulse spoke up as he sat down next to Klarion who had his head in his hands. "Like you and your mom can't just drop your family lore like that!"
The witch boy on the other hand looked up with narrowed eyes at the speedster. "What lore?"
"Let's see, the part that apparently a Vlad tried to kill your Grandpa to make friends several time. That your mom is 'ghost' adopted by the lord of time Cronos and Pandora, which makes us family too by the way, and that you have a sister that apparently is even crazier than what we got to know of your family so far." Wonder Girl counted off her fingers next to him grinning as she mentioned the part of probably being a part of his 'crazy' family too. Which hell yea, that sounded like a lot of fun to be explored she would have to talk with Wonder Woman about that as soon as possible.
"Also..." Red Robin added as he flipped through the photo album that apparently no one remembered he had. He was turning it around and pointed at a particular photo with a wild bunch of people in it that varied between more human and well... less humanoid people. One of them definitely was a Yeti and there was also what looked like living armor as well as Teekly (they knew that demon cat at least), a giant green dog and for some reasons there was a green aggressive looking Octopus in the background too. "...how are you related to a Yeti?"
"Hey that man there and those other teens in the picture actually have some resembles with you! Do you have older brothers too?" Superboy additionally asked as he moved around Red Robin to see the photo better pointing at a man that appeared to be in this late twenties, blue eyed, black haired and a little on the buffer side. If he didn't know any better and the fact that he should keep his mouth shut about their actual identities he would have jokingly asked Red Robin if his family would like to add more kids considering Klarions family apparently had a bunch of black haired blue eyed members too, judging by the photo at least.
"What are you talking about. That man is my mom and yes the others are actually my older brothers and that Yeti is uncle Frostbite who also happens to be the best medic in the Infinite Realms" The four teen heroes looked stunned at the picture and then back at the Ghost King that was smiling at them, still seated by the dinner table with their mentors. Who by the way were now perking up at the change of topic and the information they could gain with it, well Wonder Woman was more interested in the apparently extended family she had.
"Oh I remember we took this photo last year, it was such a hassle to get everyone into one place with them all being busy doing their own things." Danny mused for a moment, remembering fondly how he had to literally drag some of the kids home through a portal.
"It was more annoying than anything too since I was declared to be the youngest...." Klarion muttered also remembering that day not as fondly as his mother.
"Wait, wait, wait! That is a picture of your family? I need an explanation buddy!" Impulse cut in without shame, quickly removing the picture from the photo album to get a better look at it before holding it out to Klarion so he could explain all the individuals. "Plus why does your mom look soooo.... human?"
The witch boy on the other hand stared at him for a couple of seconds before looking over towards his mother as if waiting for something. After a moment the teen heroes as well as their mentors saw Danny nod with a little smile. "This dimension doesn't have the GIW so its fine, the Justice League Dark won't be a problem either, right?." Constantine flinched at the smile the Ghost King was giving him, muttering something under his breath as he had hoped his presence had been forgotten.
"Since mom is giving his okay...." Klarion mutter sitting crosslegged on the ground as he snatched the photo album from Red Robin and flipped through it. "Lets start with the easiest stuff to explain."
Danny chuckled noticing that not only the teen heroes but their mentors as well showed an interest. He choose to stay quiet letting the adults listen in on the kids, and if things went bad he would just ask Clockwork if they could revert time back to this moment and he would change his nod of permission to a shake of denial.
"Okay first of, this is my mom and his sister Jasmine, this is Danielle my older sister and that hulk with flaming white hair and blueish skin is me. That was before I got deaged because of destabilising." Klarion explained flipping to a photo of him, Danny, Jazz and Danielle. "Mom was around fifteen, Aunt Jazz about seventeen and Ellie should have been about a year old but she was aged up to twelve. They look human in this one because well they are. Mom was originally human and became what you call in this dimension a Meta through an accident."
"Wait... that would mean your mom... How could he have two kids at that age of fourteen? You look like an adult and your sister was aged up?" Wonder Girl couldn't help but ask as she looked from the photo and back to Danny at the dinner table again.
"That's cause Vlad was a fu-"
"Language Klarion!"
"Vlad was a fruitloop. That photo was taken shortly after Vlad and I sort of redeemed our selfs. Plus, mom didn't really have my sister and me willingly.... we were kind of forced upon him in a way." Klarion explained shrugging. "Old Man Vlad had an obsession with his mom that then turned on mom, which resulted in my oldest sister Danielle first. Actually, a lot of my elder siblings resulted from that, but they didn't survive it the first time, Mom got Old Man Clocks help to save them once he got used to being the Ghost King. I got added to the mix shortly after my sister, but... i wasn't in the best state of mind at first, kind of went through a redemption phase in which mom had to fix the timeline of our original home dimension, too."
Danny chuckled again at the disturbed looks the teens were giving his son as well as the looks their mentors sent him. He probably should correct Klarion's wording... but being one of the gremlins of his family he just smiled on, not commenting. He really understands now why Pops Clockwork liked watching the chaos he used to cause as teen, and still sometimes causes as adult.
"Klarion... how old is this Old Man Vlad?" Red Robin asked grimacing as his eyes under the mask flicked up to the Ghost King and then back to the witch boy both seemingly unbothered by the disturbing information they were sharing.
"In human years... probably around 67? You stop counting age at some point if your a halfa." Klarion shrugged, not noticing the grimaces of the teens around him. "Anyway, Ellie is sort of the first born. I came in after that, with my core being a mix of Mom and Vlad. Not DNA wise though since I came to be because of their ghost cores. That's why I look like that in this photo. Though human DNA wise I am probably now mostly Moms, we never bothered to ask the old man."
Danny muffled another chuckle, coughing as Superman sent him an incredulous look of shook while he felt Batmans burning gaze on him.
"You... mentioned more siblings?" Red Robin asked carefully sharing a look with his team, feeling like there was a whole lot of trauma in Klarions family he wasn't sure they should address or not. So asking after his siblings was probably, hopefully the safest option. They didn't know that while there was trauma in the witch boy's family it was not the kind they were imagining.
"Yea I got a bunch more brothers, Vlad was a evil crazy fuitloop, before he redeemed himself. They all kind of melted in one timeline but mom and Grandpa Clock found a way to save them." Klarion nodded flipping to another photo containing him, as he looked now, and all his siblings.
"So, Ellie you know about already. The one with the sunglasses and died hair is Bartholomew, second oldest. They made themselves a home in other dimension, barely at home cause he has to much fun messing with something called a 'Starstream' by being a 'Constellation' and throwing gold coins at 'Incarnations'. Don't ask me what that means, I barely pay attention when he gushes about his favorit 'Incarnation'. They spent like all their money and pocket money there. Aunt Jazz thinks he might develop a gambling addiction if we don't stop his spendings." The teen heroes eyed the teen that looked like a young adult grinning in the photo as the witch boy pointed at the one next to them. "The one with the vile is my elder brother Bite, most responsible one of this bunch. Mom even allowed him to take care of a couple of dimensions by taking the role of being their God of Death. I think he messed them up more than helped but he is doing a somewhat good job, even if he is sort of obsessed with making some red head his saint or something..."
"One of your sibs is a God?" Impulse gabbed and Klarion just blinked at him with a shrug. "My Grandfather is the ruler of Time, your point is? Wonder Girl is also related to a God of your dimension."
"Never mind him, moving on." A yelp resounded as Superboy pushed Impulse head down leaning in more to see the photo better. "You got one emo looking brother there!"
"Oh that's Yamikumo, he is like a year or two older than me right now, in human years. He barely got any of mom's powers so he choose to try to life a somewhat normal life but weirdly enough he choose a dimension that is ruled by people who have powers and abilities, you know like the Meta Humans of this dimension. Now that I think about it, he is also the only one who actually is studying on how to be a Hero."
"Do you end up fighting with him if he studies to be a hero?" Wonder Girl whisper asked him with a quick glance towards their mentors, to which Klarion shook his head. "As long as we leave the dimensions one of us choose to live in alone we usually don't fight about stuff like that, aside from the usual sibling fights that is. Then again I do have some siblings that like to make bets like who is better at ruling as demon lord, or who can safe a dying timeline quicker."
Danny chuckled again as he watched the kids, Klarion had definitely caused some misunderstandings with his wording. Then again it wasn't like Klarion said anything that wasn't true, but then again his son loved chaos. So there was a suspicion that Klarion intentionally choose the way he worded the explanation about how he and Ellie came to be as well as the rest of siblings.
"So....." Superman slowly started wondering how he should bring up the topic. "...you became a mom at 14?"
"Say Danny is there a way for me to meet this Vlad? You know since we are family." Wonder Woman also asked smiling in a certain way that reminded Danny of Valerie when she was mad but didn't want to show right away how mad she was, to which the Ghost King on reflex could do nothing but gulp for a moment. Not noticing that a green post it note appeared on the table before him.

Jazz accidentally kidnaps a Wayne
Big brother Danny AU
So Jazz is working crazy hours at Arkham and she’s out getting coffee after work. She comes across a 14 yr old Dick Grayson who looks startlingly similar to her little brother when he was that age. She walks up and starts scolding him, she’s got him by the arm and has dragged him into an alleyway. She says something along the lines of “dammit Danny what did you do to get deaged this time, huh?! I swear if you tried pranking CW again I’m gonna finish the job” dick is just confused and says something like “I don’t know who Danny is but I’m not him” sleep deprived Jazz is not having it gets madder and dick gets worried before she started cursing “that asshole!!! Goddammit he swore there would be no more cloning!!! When I get my hands on him I’m going to use the peeler on him!!” She says that let’s get you back to my apartment and we can figure things out. And at this point Dick is INVESTED and he sends a quick text to Bruce to let him know what’s up and follows the crazy red head.
She makes a call when she gets to the apartment and asks if he was hungry. She makes some food and jokes that he shouldn’t worry none of her cooking had fought back since she was his age. A little while later a motorcycle pulls up and Dock can see a man in a helmet approaching the apartment. When he gets inside he takes off the helmet and Dick is amazed to see an almost carbon copy of his father. Danny on the other hand is trying very hard not to laugh. He takes Jazz aside and tells her he is not his clone as he has no core and that she just kidnapped a random child. She is devastated because she definitely just told Dick a bunch of stuff, Danny says it’s okay get some sleep and I’ll take care of it. Danny gets her settled comes back and sits at the table across from Dick. “Alright, so you’re not me and you’re not my clone, so who might you actually be?” Dick and Danny get to talking and once things are settled for now, Danny has Dick call his dad and let him know where he is. While they are waiting there is a pause before Danny turns to Dick and asks “Sooooo, you wanna learn how to make a toaster into a bomb?” To which the ever rational Dick replies “hell yes” they are playing card at the table when there’s a knock at the door. Danny yells that it open and Bruce Wayne walks in. He stops for a second to take in the similarities. After talking for a bit Danny reveals that he was adopted and Bruce requests a dna test because he would like to keep any remaining members of Dicks family close. He agrees under the condition that the sample and the results are destroyed immediately after and he does the test in house. At this point Jazz is awake and profusely apologizes for the confusion before Bruce actually recognizes her as the new therapist at Arkham that’s making huge progress with her patients.
On the way home Bruce asks why her went with her and he says “well I was gonna just leave but then she mentioned cloning and I got invested, apparently Danny has been cloned before”
The results came back positive, they never really get an explanation about the cloning but Danny does introduce his “daughter” at one point. Danny doesn’t actually try to hide his secret to much because at this point hes already ghost king, and he knows that Clockwork would have said something if it was all going to go horribly wrong instead of inviting him for lunch

Bleeding Colors
fanfiction
ao3
word count: 2175
Soulmate Au where after your soulmate dies, you can only see in black and white. As in you see normal colors until they die and then only in black and white for the rest of your life, so you only ever know if you had a soulmate once it's too late. Except Character A’s (up to you who you want it to be) soulmate is Danny. While Danny is in Phantom form, character A’s vision is in black and white, but returns to normal color when Danny is Fenton. Character A is going crazy trying to find their soulmate who keeps dying and getting resurrected. @ghostboidanny
heres an old work of mine that also helped inspire this new fic :D its a fic with the same concept. its titled Colors and so i thought id give this one a similar name jhugyf
soulmate au boogaloo 
Dash walked back to the locker room with the rest of the guys after football practice was over. Coach was extra hard on them today and Dash could smell it. 
He made his way to his locker and grabbed his body wash and shampoo and his bag with his regular clothes and a towel. It was one of those days where he absolutely needed a shower immediately after practice. There was no way he was going home smelling like this. 
He found an empty shower stall and set his stuff down, pulling the curtain closed. He undressed and turned the water on. He was squeezing some shampoo into his hands when something started happening. 
The color started bleeding out of everything. At first he thought it was the lighting, the lights went out, maybe his eyes were playing tricks on him. But the color faded from every single thing in the room. In his panic, he slipped on the wet floor and dropped his bottle of shampoo. 
“Haha.” He heard Keith laugh at him from another shower stall. “You know what they say, Dash. Don’t drop the soap.”
He could hear the guys laugh at him from their shower stalls. His curtain got pulled back and Kwan was standing there.
“You know what that means in our locker room.” Kwan looked at him with a serious expression on his face. “Time for the torture of a tickle fight.” He waggled his fingers in the air at Dash. After a moment, Kwan’s brows furrowed as he looked at him.
“Dash, are you okay?”
Dash made eye contact with Kwan and took a few deep breaths.
“The color drained out of my vision. It’s all gone. Everything is in black and white now.”
The laughter of the guys around him stopped and everyone was silent.
“Shit, man.” Keith said quietly. “I’m sorry to hear that.” 
Everyone gave Dash their condolences and went back to their showers quietly. Kwan still stood by his open curtain. 
“Will you be okay?” He asked.
Dash nodded. “Yeah. I don’t think I ever got the chance to meet them. At least I’m not losing someone that I already knew. That would make it-”
Dash was startled into silence when he saw the color start to seep back into everything. He stared around him as everything went back to the way it had always been. 
“It’s back. They didn’t die.” 
Kwan sighed in relief and the other guys cheered.
Pulling the curtain closed again, Kwan walked away. Dash went back to his shower. He picked up the shampoo bottle off the ground and clicked the cap shut. 
What happened? Was his soulmate sick? How did they die and come back to life?
Dash considered himself lucky. It would have sucked if he went his whole life without meeting his soulmate. He’s glad they’re okay. They still had a chance. 
-----
Dash didn’t know what was going on. He felt like he was losing his goddamn mind. 
It had been two months since the first time his soulmate died. And it had happened everyday since then. Often more than once a day! What the hell was going on?
At first he had asked around school. You haven’t died recently, have you? You haven’t been having a lot of near death experiences, right? But the more it kept happening, the more he realized that his soulmate wasn’t anyone that he knew. He didn’t know anyone that would have these serious health conditions that would cause them to be dying every single day. 
That was how he got this idea.
He looked at where Fenton, Manson, and Foley sat on the other side of the cafeteria, eating their lunches. They knew people he didn’t. Maybe they would know something. 
He walked over towards their table and stopped behind where Manson and Foley sat. Fenton looked up at him and Dash waited until the other two turned around to face him.
“What do you want, Dash?” Manson snapped, glaring up at him. 
Dash swallowed. He’d never admit how much she actually intimidated him. He just had to push forward and get the information he was looking for. 
“You guys seem like you’re into some freaky shit. Do you know any kids who keep getting raised from the dead?”
Fenton looked like Dash had grown a second head. Manson and Foley stared at him with similar expressions. 
“No, Dash. We don’t know any zombies.” Manson said.
“Haha. I’m being serious. Are there any kids doing weird occult things, kids with health issues whose heart keeps stopping, are there any kids from Casper High who are in the hospital right now?”
“Why?” Fenton asked. 
Dash pressed his lips together. Did he want to tell them that he was trying to figure out who his soulmate was? Did he want to give them that information?
He didn’t debate on it for long before he caved. 
“I’m actually trying to find my soulmate.” He said honestly. “Everyday a couple times a day my vision goes black and white before it goes back to normal again. I don’t know if my soulmate has some serious health problems or if they’re into some really weird shit, but I want to try and find them before they inevitably end up croaking.”
The trio was silent for a few seconds before Foley bursted out laughing.
Dash flushed. “What? Wouldn’t you want to try to find your soulmate if it looked like they were going to die soon?”
“Shut up, Tucker!” Manson hissed at him. She turned to face him again. “Sorry, Dash but we don’t know anyone like that.” 
Dash looked from Foley to Manson and then to Fenton. For some reason Fenton had turned as red as a tomato. 
“Are you guys sure?” Dash asked.
Fenton nodded meekly. “Like Sam said, we don’t know any zombies.” He squeaked out. 
Dash’s shoulders slumped and he sighed. “Thanks anyways.” 
He started walking away from them. He could hear hushed whispers behind him but he didn’t pay them any mind. 
Maybe his soulmate wasn’t even in Amity Park. If neither the geeks nor him and his friends knew a person like this from Casper High, maybe they just weren’t here. 
It dawned on him that with how things seemed to be going with his soulmate's health, it was likely they’d never get to meet. Dash resigned himself to the fact that he’d probably be seeing in black and white for the rest of his life very soon. 
——-
Dash was starting to notice something. 
It seemed like every time his soulmate was having health issues, dying or whatever was happening, was correlated to when Fenton would leave their classroom. Somehow. 
It couldn’t be Fenton. Fenton was as healthy as he could be. Sure, he could be healthier or more in shape, but he wasn’t sick or anything. No, something else was going on.
Maybe Fenton was secretly beating up his soulmate. Beating them to the point that they almost died. But how did they always come back to life? It didn’t make sense. None of it made any sense.
But that was why Dash decided to follow Danny the next time he went to the bathroom. That would be his chance to see what was happening out here when his soulmate was always dying. 
Danny ran out the door and Dash stood up and started following after him without so much of a thought to Lancer.
“Mr. Baxter, where are you going?” He asked.
“I, uh, also have to use the bathroom.”
Dash ran out before Lancer could protest and looked for Danny. 
He saw him turn a corner down the hallway and Dash started running. He couldn’t let Danny out of his sight. He needed to know what the boy was doing every time he left the classroom. He needed to know if it was related to his soulmate or not. 
Dash turned the corner that Danny went around just in time to see him go into a janitor’s closet. Why was he going in there? Did he and Sam meet to make out in there? Gross. Wait, if this was related to the whole soulmate thing it couldn’t be Sam. She was also healthy and didn’t look very close to dying all the time. 
Dash reached the door and pulled it open just in time to hear Danny yell. 
“Going ghost!” 
Dash’s eyes opened wide as he stared at Danny. A white ring appeared around his waist and split into two. They traveled up and around him, disappearing as they went over his head and feet and there in front of Dash stood Phantom.
Danny Phantom. 
As those rings had traveled along Danny’s body, the color faded from his view once more. Everything faded to black and white. Then Danny turned around and met Dash’s eyes, his own opening wide.
They were a bright, electric green. It was the only color left in the bleak, monotone world that had been replaced when Danny transformed. 
Tucker’s laughter from the day he asked them if they knew anyone who was being raised from the dead replayed in his head. All he could do was stare. 
“You? It’s you?”
“Dash-”
The building rumbled around them and Dash could hear someone scream from somewhere in the school. Danny’s face hardened. 
“I have to go. We can talk later.”
Dash watched as he flew away, phasing through the ceiling and out of sight. 
Danny Fenton was Danny Phantom. He was his soulmate. 
-----
Dash laid in his bed in his room later that night. Danny had never come back to class that day. Dash couldn’t help but feel like he was avoiding him.
He couldn’t blame him. If he was some nerd that found out the guy that bullied him at school everyday for years was his soulmate, he’d be pretty upset about it too. Danny probably thought that the world was playing some kind of cruel prank on him. 
The colors in his vision had come and gone all day since Danny transformed. He must’ve been off fighting ghosts. Right now Dash was surrounded by the bleak grayness of his room. Danny must’ve been transformed right now. What was he doing? Was he fighting ghosts? 
Dash was staring up at the ceiling when suddenly Phantom’s head was poking through the wall above his face.
“Ahh!” Dash shouted. He sat up suddenly as he tried to back away but he only accomplished knocking his and Danny’s foreheads together. 
“Ow!” Danny shouted. He phased the rest of the way through the wall as he held one of his hands to his face. He floated upside down in the air as he rubbed his forehead. 
“Sorry!” Dash said, rubbing his own forehead. That hurt. “I just wasn’t expecting you to be right there so suddenly.” 
“Yeah I guess that’s my fault.” Danny turned himself right side up and sat cross legged in the air. “I probably should’ve sent you a text before just showing up.”
They sat and stared at each other. Danny said they would talk later, and now it was later, but what were they even going to talk about?
“So you’re my soulmate, huh?” Danny said.
Dash fidgeted on his bed. “Yeah, I guess so.”
They sat in silence again. It made Dash twitchy and uncomfortable. He didn’t know what they were supposed to talk about.
“What now?” He blurted out. Danny gave him a quizzical look. 
“It’s not like we have to suddenly be together just because we’re soulmates.” Danny said. “We can at least start with being nice to each other and see where it takes us.”
“Oh.” Dash nodded. That sounded manageable. “Okay.”
“Unless you want to be together?” Danny gave him a sly grin.
“What?” Dash squeaked out.
“Sam and Tucker told me that you’re like, Phantom’s biggest fan even though you never got the chance to see me in my ghost form before.”
How did they know that? He thought he was pretty chill about Phantom!
Danny waved off whatever expression Dash was making at him. “Relax, I’m just teasing you. Haha.” He rubbed the back of his neck nervously. “Anyways, if we’re gonna just start with being nice to each other, we could go to my house and play some video games?” 
“Sure!” Dash stood up. “I’ll whip your ass at them though.”
“You better not, I won’t back down from a challenge.”
Now eye level with Danny, Dash stared at his eyes. They were still that electric green. 
“What?” Danny asked.
“Your eyes.” Dash said in wonder. “They’re green. They’re the only color I can see right now.” 
“Oh. That’s neat. They do say that eyes are the windows to the soul.”
“Yeah, the window to your soul telling me you’re not actually dead.” 
Danny threw his head back and barked out a laugh. “Ha! That was a good one. Now come on, if you beat me at Mario Kart I’ll let you stay for dinner. My mom’s making homemade mashed potatoes tonight.” 
“You’re on.”

for the ask game: Danny Arkham Security Guard?
I've been curious where you're at with that for a while (I assumed the muse has fled and/or you're too busy with other fics), so had to pick that one when I saw it on the list 👀
From this WIP ask game
Haha! I knew someone would ask about it!
Honestly I have struggled a lot with picking this bad boy up... When I finally did a few months ago, the last edit was July 2022 😭
Long story short, summer 2022 was the time I really went down the spiral with Hardcover ship and literally every idea I had was for those two. I think what happened was that I realized there was an untapped potential and market for romance and all the classic romance tropes in DP fandom (I understood why that was the case, but still I was frustrated because I hadn't seen a single fic that made me crazy about any ship in DP) and it left me wanting.
Then I wrote Arkham Guard Danny and I did the bit where Jazz almost shoots Jason, and then I liked the dynamics between him and the siblings and I literally said in the AN if I ended up shipping him, I was debating between Jazz and Danny. *laughs in irony*
So basically I went "what if I write every romance story trope but Jazz/Jason?" and the rest is history.
And every damn time I went back to Arkham Guard Danny, I re read it and realized.... Is just so bad. I saw flaws everywhere. I saw bad characterization. I saw "angry robin Jason" and a bunch of things I don't stand by anymore and I felt like there was no way I could continue that fic and the difference wouldn't be felt. Was I too harsh with myself? Absolutely, but we are our worst critic.
Also? I felt the project running away from me. I started developing worldbuilding and ideas and I got mad because Arkham Guard is supposed to be simple. It used to be the "simple fic" I did while I focused on my magnum opus for DP fandom (Eldritch Ghost King Danny AU - "You and me and our best friend makes three"). If it got complicated I didn't want to write it anymore. And then it did and I dropped it.
Recently I went through a really bad situation and it kind of killed any want to write for dpxdc. I thought - why not go back to the basics? Revisit what really made me start in the fandom, what made me get a bunch of comments like "i got into dpxdc because of this fic". Took me back to when I started, how simple it felt to just write a fic and drop it to the ether and not worry about the things that made me want to stop forever.
So I did. Feels good to pick this up again!
I could go on forever but I won't continue rambling about this project (✿◡‿◡)
If you read up to this point, here's a little bit of what I have so far!
---
“Children,” Alfred stood from his seat, positioning himself between the brothers and their guest. “Let her breathe.”
“It’s okay, Mr. — uh…” She blushed as she realized she never asked for his name.
“Alfred,” the butler smiled, “Alfred Pennyworth.”
“Mr. Pennyworth,” she nodded politely. “I’m fine. I am aware that after that… theatrical spectacle, explanations are needed.”
“Indeed.” Batman cut in the conversation. “Proper explanations are in order. After I deliver the Joker to Arkham.”
“You can’t be serious!” Did the old man go crazy? Back to that wretched place?
Jazz frowned, seemingly sharing his thoughts. She leaned closer to the microphone and spoke in a controlled voice. “Where are you delivering him? In the hospital.”
Bruce took way too long to answer, so Tim did it for him. “Through the front door?”
Jazz didn’t find it funny. “Wait for me.”
“What?”
“I said, wait for me.” Jazz reached for her discarded jacket, eyeing the door to the elevator back to the manor. “Joker is my patient and I need to be there.”
“What for?”
She turned to look at Jason. “He doesn’t deserve to be left at the mercy of some of the people in the Asylum. They could—”
“He can rot for all I care.”
The vigilante walked up to her, getting in her way and using his height and build to scare her into submission. Jazz held his gaze, defiant, muscles tense and ready to throw down if needed.
“You don’t know that place like I do.”
Jason huffed. “Whatever the inmates want to do to him, he deserves it.”
“I wasn’t talking about the inmates.” Her teal eyes steeled with fury. “Arkham has a history of staff abusing their authority.”

Hey, Just_Will from AO3.
First: wanted to say I hope you're doing good for the reasons you told me about, and second I hoped to cheer you up with this idea I had about your Whispers AU with Danny and that when it comes to giving Jason gifts he can't be beat.
I imagine the kids are all competitive about getting each other the best gift for everything because they're just like that and when Danny learns of this and because he and Jason have "a connection" he goes Extra(tm) for him. Jason's first birthday with the family? Danny uses the Infini-map, some help from Clockwork, and a lot of help from Alfred to take Jason and the family to merry old England for a ready of Pride and Prejudice... by Jane Austin herself. He fan boys and makes noises that a grown man shouldn't be able to make and he just has a great time with it. Simple but he just loves it. Danny wins the gift giving for that year and when they're leaving Dick mentions that it will be hard to top next year. Danny smirks though and next year? Jane Austin's ghost has written a personalized novel specifically for Jason whom just about dies all the way. Needless to say Danny is his favorite now and no one can ever top his crazy gifts not that the rest of the kids don't try their damndest to do so.
It was all just a fun idea I had and I hope you liked it. I may have to try to actually write this one day when I get the time but for now I just hope life is going well for you and this made you smile at least.
Thanks for checking on me. Things still aren't great on that front - have received less than 1/3 of what work owes me regarding my missed wages. Boss' response was "Give it time. We're working on it." The reason they gave me regarding what was going on was supposedly resolved on Wednesday which is when I got the partial payment... so they don't have an excuse anymore. I'm hoping to speak with a lawyer this week about my options.
That did really make me smile. Jason would be dumbstruck that someone spent so much time and effort on something for him. He'd so try to arrange a trip to the Watchtower for Danny as a thank you because the men in the Wayne family can't figure out how to communicate. Seeing if Superman would give Danny a tour of the Fortress of Solitude would be a tempting alternative too since he basically has a zoo of alien creatures.
If you do end up writing that, I'd love to read it.

Plan to prevent afo with time travel.
Or trigger time travel au
A DP x MHA time travel au but not what you think.
3 teenagers are preparing for their plan after All for one defeated all might, and that green kid, and took over japan and already on the way to take over the world with his nomu army. The group in America got a very risky plan to stop him with time travel by making a very powerful trigger and inject it into the mage casting a very powerful time spell-like sending them into 120 year into the past as their plan ( headcanon that MHA took place 300 years after Danny Phantom), sure enough as the nomu are invading the town the group does the plan but the trigger is too powerful and send the group further then necessary from a quirky land to one with ghost.
Vlad is in his mansion when 3 teenagers suddenly appear out of nowhere in front of him and after getting the answer from them becomes shocked that people will get superpower called quirk (and get evidence by one of them displaying a power), amused that society just after the age of quirk decided to be a superhero focused society, and horrified about a man called all for one who made a monster army and takes over the world. While his obsession always wants Maddie, Vlad does mental gymnastics to get an idea to take the teenagers in to learn anything about quirk as he can for his plan for Maddie. Surely this won't get his life to be crazy, right?
Tldr it is about 3 teenagers went too far back to stop AFO and appeared in front of Vlad, just before Danny becomes a halfa,who took them in to get them to be part of his plan ( also unknowingly be on a path of redemption). It is a time travel Vlad redemption au ( no phantom planet)
Also obsession can change but it is slow
The time traveled group age:15.
Name: Luka Hall
Quirk: mana ( he got a mana pool that he can use to cast spells like power like fireball or healing but the more powerful the spell the more mana needed to cast and he needs to rest when his pool is empty and the pool is growing when he trains ( and also temporary with drug like trigger)
birthday: April 21st
Extra: after going back in time becomes extremely against trigger as that went badly. Also have trauma by his sister dying in front of him while going back in time which causes the group to go too far back
Name : Alfred Banks
Quirk: chemistry touch ( can understand the chemistry of things he touches and can alter the chemistry but not knowing what will happen.)
birthday: October 16th
Extra: the one who makes both the plan and the trigger.
Name : Mikey Graves
Quirk : ghost hand ( can summon 2 ghost arm that he can control that act like a arm could like punch and pick up stuff and also while no one knows it yet can effect ghost as the arm can interact with ghosts even intangible)
Birthday: June 8th
Extra: the jokester of the group and wanting to give Vlad a chance when he wants to take them in, also surprisingly reasonable as he explained that only Vlad believes them
The plan before it goes wrong
Inject powerful trigger into Luka
Luka send us 120 year into the past
Go to Japan
Find and interfere with that asshole (AFO) plan
When we grow old use Luka to cast any youth and age expansion spell
Find and help All Might

Inspired by Teenage Mercenary, a DC × DP AU in which Danny plays the role on Ijin except instead of a foreign country Danny grew up in the Ghost Zone after an ill fated trip wherein Jack, Madeline and Danny entered the ghost zone in the prototype Specter Speeder but failed to return. Instead of growing up with her grandparents, Jazz is taken in by Vlad and then one day an older iteration of Danny emerges from Vlad's ghost zone portal. Jazz bearhugs Danny and Danny hugs her back, in steps Vlad who also hugs his godson adding to the dog pile.
Vlad uses Jazz's preexisting attendance to Gotham Academy to get Danny into the school as a new student and Danny is sorted into the same homeroom as one Tim Drake.
Sorry for the delay on this, Shroud, I wanted to be able to give you something good instead of whatever hot garbage my fevered brain churned out. I mean, it might still be hot garbage, but at least I tried, you know?
Anyway
I LOVE this idea an amount that you probably expected. Let's start with the immediate effects and then push out to when he returns!
Vlad
The objects of his obsession (Maddie and Jack) are gone. Dead. He even goes to the GZ to find them with no luck; just a wrecked Specter Speeder, parts and pieces of Maddie and Jack, and a blood-soaked baby seat.
Understandably, his mental status is completely rocked. If he didn't have the (once minor) obsessions with family and custody of Jazmine, his core would've shattered.
All that to say: this is a Vlad more like the future one in the apocalypse during TUE. He's broken, barely holding himself together for the sake of this broken-hearted little girl, and is forced to move on.
Jazmine
Despite being only 3 at the time of the accident, she has a lot of guilt. She thinks she should have faked being sick, thrown a tantrum, ANYTHING. It takes years of therapy (hence her goal of being a psychiatrist) for her to internalize it wasn't her fault. She was 3. She wasn't even at the house, she was at a sleepover. How was she supposed to stop them?
Despite her (unfair) guilt, she moves to calling Vlad 'dad' pretty quickly. Now, when she thinks of her dad, it's our favorite Green Bay Packers fan. When somebody presses about her bio dad, she has a few pictures, some stories, and a vague memory of a man in orange buckling up her older brother for the last ride he would ever take.
She misses Danny, and often wonders what he'd be like if he lived. Her hardest day, besides the immediate aftermath, was her 6th birthday because that meant she was older than Danny (who was 5 when he died) would ever be.
6 year old Jazz had a very hard time.
Now, at 14, her main concerns are having to move to Gotham and leave her friends Sam and Tucker (not to mention the town she grew up in) behind. She spent the last half year in Gotham, but she thought she was going back to Amity Park
Unfortunately (or fortunately) for her, business is booming, and Vlad signed a contract with Wayne Enterprises that's slowly putting a certain evil billionaire out of business, and he needs to be in city. And she's 14, so she is, obviously, going with him.
Side note, Vlad grew up rich and in boarding schools. He had a Very Bad Time in boarding schools, so that's a no go for him. Also, his existence low-key revolves around his daughter, so he starts going a little canon-level crazy when he can't see her for at least an hour or two a week. (Thank you, Skype! She can enjoy summer camp as long as she has a reliable internet connection!)
Also: Jazz knows this. But her abandonment issues have abandonment issues, so she's totally fine with this: she gets to reassure herself that her only living parent is still (half) alive and healthy.
Also also: thanks to an unexpected vulture visit, she's known Vlad is a half ghost since she was 4.
The Plot Beggineth
Is Beggineth a word? I like it, so it is now.
She sneaks off to say a final goodbye to Fentonworks the week before they're supposed to leave, but Sam and Tucker have a feeling she would do that and follow her.
Most of this chapter would be somber, I think. Jazz visiting the Ops center, the kitchen, and every room to say a final goodbye because, tbh, she doesn't plan on going back here again at this point. She's finally ready to move on.
She tests the lock on the lab as always, and it's locked, but the hinges have rusted and pretty much falls over. Despite knowing how dangerous a maintained ghost lab is, she decends. A last goodbye to the ghosts who never, despite all the wishes and prayers, came to haunt her.
There's the wrecked Speeder, just as her dad found it years ago. The weapons cabinet, the lab tables. All untouched bexause her dad couldn't stand to be here either. She's about to leave when she trips over a Fenton Thermos and lands in the portal.
Despite being very careful standing up, she trips on a wire, and the fact her dad never shut off the power really bites her because she bumps the on button, and boom! Halfa!Jazz.
By this time, Sam and Tucker are there to see her death, and Vlad's not far behind since his wards were tripped when she entered. They're all a little too late.
Not only does the portal activation kill Jazz! It also acts as a beacon to a certain ghost who doesn't remember much, but knows his obsession lies on the other side of the door he can't cross. Until now.
Danny
Immediately recognizes Jazz, though not Vlad.
They don't recognize him either. He's had a multitude of ghost parents, so 4 arms (Pandora), horns (Frostbite), star maps on his skin (Clockwork), and- well, he looks like a neverborn.
Until he switches back, and he's the spitting image of Jack at that age. He knows things only Danny would know. VERY secretive blood tests prove that's Jazz's long (un)dead brother.
Jazz and Vlad are beyond excited to have him back, and so is he! Matter of fact, Vlad's a little confused at how such a gentle, kind boy (admittedly with a lot of sass) has (half) survived the GZ.
All that changes when Luthor does weird mind control on Superman to get revenge (not against Plasmius- he isn't in the know- but against Vlad, who is driving him out of business) (overkill much, Lexy?), and Danny takes him down in like...20 seconds.
Super speed? Well how does your super hearing like that Ghostly Wail? Super strength? Boy, he wrestles with the ghost of the Nemean Lion on the regular.
Lazer eyes? Frost breath. Catch two arms? Jokes on you, he's got 2 more and now you're in range.
Yeah. It's quick. Batman and the bats have to slow down CCTV footage to 1 FPS and it's still faster than the camera could track.
He always went by Phantom in the GZ, so that's his hero name! Vlad still tries to teach him- and learns a few tricks himself. They both teach Jazz.
Tim
With summer over, classes start again!
Immediately, Tim knows something is off. The new kid, Danny, is WAY too nice for Gotham. Yeah, he's sassy, but he'll also make friends with anybody!
Tim tries to teach him the ropes. This causes Danny to believe they're BFFs now, which Tim was NOT aiming for, he just didn't want the cinnamon roll to be murdered.
Only then Danny steps in with a school bully who Tim has just had to deal with because he can't reveal his combat training, and absolutely shreds the guy to pieces. Then, super friendly, gives Tim his backpack back and wants to know if Tim knows any good burger joints in the area.
Detective mode: activated! Tim (thinks he) figures out that this is a Jason Situation. He resolves to keep an eye out on Danny to see if he has superpowers or nah.
Tim: I'll hang around him until I figure him out. Danny: new friend!
Danny starts showing up randomly. A fight breaks out while he's supposed to be in class? Nope, Danny's right beside him kicking ass, but his teacher says he never left the room, and the footage he (ahem) aquired confirms it.
Tim starts making a list of powers and panicking because a meta like this might be able to slow down even Superman! He'd be far more frightened if he knew half of the stuff Danny could really pull.
The Batfam thinks Tim has a crush. There's a lot of 'you can tell us anything!' speeches, Kate reminds him she's lesbian and it's ok with everyone else for some reason, even Jason gets to the point where he's just: Tim. Listen. Bruce is like the only straight person here, and frankly nobody knows about Alfred. It's cool if you want to bring him home.
"He's a meta."
"I'll make an exception unless he hurts you."
Tim thinks: ok, meta is fine. Turn him into a hero! Bruce thinks: ok, going to meet my son's boyfriend soon!
This is, by the way, the while thing. Everyone (but Tim & sweet cinnamon roll Danny) thinks they're dating. It gets to the point where Bruce and Vlad start inviting eachother over for family dinners in the hopes that their sons will just fess up, already!
Everyone (but Tim, Jazz, and Vlad) thinks Danny is either normal, or a meta with some speed and strength enhancements.
Tim tries to explain how dangerous he really is? YES, Tim, we GET IT, Danny is AWESOME and has great hair, JESUS CHRIST.
Hilariously, Tim and Danny keep getting kidnapped, and everyone from the Batfam thinks Tim keeps somehow overpowering metas to rescue them. Ghostfam thinks Tim is now In The Know.
"Hey Mr. Masters-"
"Tim, please, it's Vlad."
"Uh. Vlad? How did Danny get superpowers?"
"Oh, he died."
"WhAt?!"
Phantom and Robin keep teaming up to rescue Jazz, who is doing her best not to show powers so Lex doesn't have a reason to clone her.
Phantom/Robin becomes a thing. Danny/Tim is still not. When they find out, both families are FURIOUS.
"DANIEL JAMES FENTON-MASTERS, WHY ARE YOU CHEATING ON YOUR BOYFRIEND?!"
"TIMOTHY DRAKE, GET DOWN HERE AND TELL ME WHY RED ROBIN WAS SEEN KISSING PHANTOM?!"
Tim starts hanging around the Fenton-Masters more because NOBODY believes he and Danny aren't dating! Danny does the opposite- and both figure out eachother's secret identities.
This leads to further problems because: ok, he likes Red Robin, but he clearly isn't interested in Tim Drake. Ok, he likes Phantom, but Danny probably annoys him.
Tim gets Unmasked by Disposable Henchman #4, and (after getting rid of the others), Danny, to even the score, shows that Phantom and Danny are the same person too.
This leads to further drama. You'd think everything was solved, wouldn't you? Nah. "Dad, please stop yelling at me. Tim IS Red Robin." "Oh, that's a load of licorice, Danny, you're grounded."
"Bruce, everybody- I'm tired of this, so here: Danny IS Phantom." "So now you're lying to your BF AND to us?!"
Finally, they unmask in front of each other's families. Problem solved, right? Right! Except Jazz is kidnapped now, and there's this new scary blue meta looking for a ghost kid, and- shit's complicated.
But that's (realistically) where I'd go with it- romantic comedy/ crouching tiger hidden dumbass style.
All in all:
Danny? Genius when it comes to fighting, the GZ, and math. Dumbass for anything else.
Tim? Genius when it comes to detective work, fighting, and breaking and entering. Dumbass when it comes to human interaction.
Danny AND Tim? Bisexual Disaster Squad for the win!

Alive human Side AU concepts moment
Hi! Hi!, I have many concepts of Alive human side AU but lazy to draw it, I have other bad brainrots on other fandom sorry for not being active on Phandom but I will show you how many concepts and plots this AU has
A poll for…
Oh god I made a poll just to defend whether or not calling Alive human!Danny in AU as Soot permanently or not- I'm still calling Alive human!Danny as Soot is here to prevent confusion ahahah 👍
Relationship with Clockwork
So after reading a fanfic & knowing that motive and how Clockwork changes the timeline…
I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT A CLOCKWORK TO GIVE DANNO 'A LESSON' OH MY GOD- DANNY WAS JUST 14 YEARS OLD AND NAIVE AND THE CLOCKWORK TRAUMATED HIM IN THE WORST WAY EVER-!!
So- for how many reasons does Soot hate ClockWork so much. He hated how Clockwork made a younger version of him go through such a horrific traumatic experience by having him fight Dan only to create a branching timeline where Dan didn't exist.
Rationality and morality Soot doesn't like and is very much against clockwork's decisions sounding very selfish just to teach his younger version a 'lesson', Danny is naive and very stressed with exams he just needs to be given enough motivation and support to not cheat and also not to let damn nasty burger sauce from exploding… Soot always thinks why Clockwork doesn't help him or something? He can still save his timeline from Dan with how much help he can defeat Dan then get back to get half of his ghosts back & anyrhing will be okey but it never happen he feels unfair… plus now Dan is kind of symbolic of the 'Paradox' now because he exists outside of the timeline and that makes Clockwork's actions is more like a fatal failure for him.
Beta concept
At first I wanted Soot to return to the timeline that Soot changed & disguised himself as someone who works at Fenton Works… This is really the initial concept, the motive here is unknown (because my head is empty thinking about the plot)… But this plot is still can be maintained I think.
I can make fanfic but I doubt I can make it very good, I just made concept for fun… So if you want to use my concept for fanfic I totally okey- just credit me and tag me because I want see and read it 👉👈 hehehehe
relationship with Valerie
I want to focus this AU on Grey Ghost… They deserve more screen time and more development between them.
Tumblr media
Soot is somewhat obsessed with being by Valerie side because all these years Soot has felt incomplete, empty & lifeless because his half ghost side is the embodiment of most of his desires… Without it he like walking corspe everday… But when he is with Val something awakens something in him, love? Obsession? Soot doesn't know but he feels alive again when he's with Valerie. On the other hand Valerie is filled with guilt for not being able to prevent the creation of Dan and help Danny, sometimes she tries too hard to be strong and blames herself… When Soot comes to Amity Park to help... Val she feels he is familiar with Soot but she doesn't believe him, she has heard that Soot is a crazy man who blows up something & it bad. But Soot always gets too sticky and it always ends up in them always being together. At end Valerie knows Soot is Danny but she likes this version of Danny too much Soot is charismatic but has no purpose…
Random themes for them (also compatible with c!tntduo if you don't mind) pog-
I want to redesign Alive human!Danny a bit but… Pls… + personal note
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I MISS C/Q!TNTDUO!!! I MISS GREY GHOST!!! DEAR GOD— I MISS MY LITTLE MEOW MEOW!! *CRYING* and sorry if i typo guys :'[

Misunderstandings really really suck
Edit: Part 2 is Up
So heres the deal, it's a normal Vivisection AU where Danny had to run away to Gotham after his parents try to kill him, and let's say that he takes Ellie with him too.
They stay there for a few years and after a while they manage to establish a little life for themselves. Danny is running a small Shop that makes them enough money to live comfortably in the apartment right above his Shop, meanwhile Ellie is going to Gotham Metro Academy on a scholarship because she is really smart and they managed to fake some school records for her when they were making themselves new Identities.
(Side Note: Danny is now 26, while Ellie hasn't started aging yet and still looks 12, but she will begin to soon since she just hit her 12th birthday)
Danny also runs a small Ghost Shop out of his store, just selling small bits of Distilled Ectoplasm or Ecto-Infused Treats to the local Ghosts in return for small favors or help around the shop.
But here's the thing. Ellie is still an unstable Clone, even if they did managed to find a reliable treatment in the form of Ecto-Dejecto. But Danny's parents were the only ones who knew how to make that stuff, and the Ecto-Dejecto they stole all those years ago is beginning to run out.
Danny begins to work tirelessly trying to replicate it, diving full on into his Mad Scientist side to try and find a way to make more ED for Ellie. He manages to make some prototypes, but he is nowhere near confident that they are good enough.
He decides to call in some favors from the local Ghosts. He calls the ones he is confident will survive this and asks them to try out his Ecto Dejecto to see if it will work for Ellie, but he does warn them that there will probably be unexpected side effects that they will probably not like.
The Ghosts agree to do it, because in the years that the Fenton's have lived there they have grown extremely attached to Ellie. She is like a little sister or daughter for many of them, they would throw away their afterlives if it meant helping her.
For most of the samples, the ED doesn't work at all. Some of them work for a single moment before cutting out, others don't do anything, and some have crazy effects that affect them for a little while before disappearing abruptly. One guy turned into a Dog, not the worst outcome but not the intended one. Another began to glow brightly and couldn't turn it off, that one lasted for an hour.
They keep testing them, out in the nearby Alley since they don't want to destroy the house or Danny's makeshift Lab, for a few weeks.
They problem comes when they are spotted one night by Red Hood.
...
Jason was crossing the Rooftops while on Patrol. He was going a little farther than his normal patrol range, since he had the time and he wanted to make sure there was no trouble in the nearby areas either.
As he was about to hop from one rooftop to another, he got a weird feeling. It was strange, he didn't feel anything on his skin, he didn't smell anything, he didn't even hear anything, but he somehow knew that there was something strange happening in the nearby Alley. It was like he could sense it.
Peeking over the edge of the rooftop, he saw a group of about 10 people. It was a bunch of strange looking people with green-ish skin, and one normal looking person. The normal looking one was wearing a lab coat, and seemed to be about 25 yrs old. Jason felt like there was something off about that guy, but he couldn't place exactly what. He was holding a box of something in his hand, and talking to the group.
"Ok guys, I'm really confident this time!" He said, "I think one of these may be the one!"
The man placed the box on a nearby Dumpster and opened it up, taking out a strange glowing green Vial. He handed it to one of the Greenish people and watched as they injected themselves with it.
Jason watched as they began to glow slightly before their arms suddenly grew to be longer than they were tall. The Man in the Lab Coat sighed in discontent, before saying "Ok, not that one. But we still have a few to try out!"
Jason watched as one by one the people below injected themselves with the green Liquid, each of them having some strange phenomenon happen to them before moving on to the next. The strange thing was that none of them seemed to be concerned with the changes, just commenting on it felt before moving on.
Finally, they got to the last person in line. As they injected themselves, Jason felt a sense of Anticipation well up in his gut. He didn't know why, but he felt like this was going to he important.
He was proven right as the Man who had injected himself began to glow brightly. Jason was overwhelmed with the sense of Pure Power coming from him. It was intense, he didn't know how, but he could actually feel the man begin to grow stronger and stronger. The feeling was nearly suffocating, but he managed to regain his senses long enough to hear Lab Coat laugh maniacally. He looked over to see that the entire group was enthusiastically high-fiving and fist-bumping eachother, all cheering at the success.
"Hahaha! Yes! Finally!" Labcoat Cheered, "It's done! Once I make some more, we'll be able to-"
The overwhelming power suddenly cut out. It was so abrupt that even the people below didn't speak for some time. They all just stood on slight shock before Labcoat spoke up, "Ok...ok this is fine. All I need to do is take that formula and find a way to make the effect Permanent. After that we're all set." He said, a thoughtful expression on his face, "I think we'll be good to go within a Week!"
The group of people muttered in agreement, and Labcoat thanked them all for a bit before they all began to walk away. It seemed like the meeting was over.
Jason took a moment to collect himself, before deciding to follow some of the group so he could question them. Unfortunately, everybody he followed disappeared into thin air after a short time.
It occurred to him that he hadn't tried to intervene at all. Usually he would have jumped down and beaten them all black and blue for testing drugs right in front of him, but he didn't this time. Why? He also realized that he should have followed the Lab Coat guy first, not waited until it was his last option. Why did he not go after that guy instantly? Why did he hesitate? Was it something to do with that Ominous Feeling that led him to the meeting in the first place? There was just something about the guy that made Jason feel inexplicably sacred of him.
Either way, he needed to tell the others.
Because from what he had seen, a Mad Scientist had been working with a group of Metahumans to create a Super Soldier Drug right there in Gotham, and they needed to stop them.

First Line Tag Game
Thank you, @noxsoulmate and @bonheur-cafe for the tag, I appreciate you both so much 💛
Rules: Post the first lines of your last 10 fics posted to ao3. if you have less than 10 fics posted, post the first lines of all your fics.
Making it from oldest to newest.
a dead love's buried beneath the dirt [Hangster]
Jake genuinely thought his day couldn't get any worse- a missed alarm, a spectacular hangover-induced headache and flying like Hangman does do not mix particularly well. As he walks out the bar, completely sober, he's relieved to put the day behind him.
That is, until he climbs into his car and a hand wraps around his throat from behind.
come what may [Tarlos]
The scene is a familiar one.
A four vehicle collision, a fire truck and four ambulances. TK's team is the last to arrive.
"I'm just saying," Nancy huffs, "I'm kinda the reason the reason you two got back together and I should be rewarded for it."
flying too close to the ground [Tarlos]
"My fiance's in there."
Officer Carlos Reyes said it quietly, but it still startled Daniel. He looked back at the man, wanting to make sure he heard right. "What did yo- Hey, whoah!" He lunged after him, managed to put a hand on his arm. It didn't stop him, but it slowed him down enough that he manged to stand in front of him. "What are you doing, huh? You wanna get yourself killed?!"
"Danny," he started, calm in a way that scared Daniel, "move or I will make you move."
Carnations [Tarlos, Hanahaki Disease AU]
"When I saw you in that hospital bed, not knowing if you would ever wake up, I had all these feelings- strong feelings, which is crazy because I still barely know you," Carlos started, then paused, hoping TK would say something, anything.
He didn't.
"I'm just confused," he confessed, "what are we? Are we even a 'we'?"
shot through the heart [Tarlos, Mob AU]
I'm not a murderer. I was trying to save him. I didn’t kill anyone. I was just trying to save him.
TK Strand sits in an uncomfortable metal chair, bloody hands handcuffed to a metal table, in an NYPD interrogation room.
You're in my heart like an Infection [Buddie]
"Why are you staring at Buck?"
Hen's voice startles Eddie enough that he nearly spills the hot coffee he just poured into his mug on his lap.
"He's always staring at Buck," Chimney mutters from where he's sitting beside him.
Eddie rolls his eyes, side eying his friend, then turns his attention back to Buck, who's staring at the coffee machine like it holds the secrets of the universe.
been you all along [Hangster]
When Helen shows up at his door, she's crying silently, her nose red and her eyes puffy.
She's also holding a sleeping baby to her chest, its head resting on her thin shoulders. Bradley stares at them both, stunned.
"I can't do this," she tells him, a shaking hand coming up to wipe the tears off her cheeks.
start anew
Six year old TK sat on the couch in his living room, clad in his firefighter costume and watching the door like a hawk, waiting for his father to come get him so they could go trick or treating.   His mother came into the room and TK frowned when he saw the look on her face. She crouched in front of him, smiling softly. "Honey, I need to talk to you about something, okay?"
I'll hold you longer than forever [Buddie]
Falling in love with Evan Buckley has been the easiest thing Eddie has ever done.
Which is probably why it only registers when he sees Buck's limp body hanging from the ladder, completely, terrifyingly still. He screams his name, "Buck!"
Don't you dare die.
if my heart was a house, you'd be home [Hangster]
Jake wakes up to an excruciating amount of pain, in every inch of his body. When he opens his eyes, the room he's in is dark and gloomy, and the only sound in it is the beeping of the heart monitor. He tries to lift up his head, but it's awkward as hell with the neck collar he has on. He's helpless, and for a moment, the panic sets in and he's paralyzed with it.
eyes wide shut [Tarlos]
I can't do it, I really tried. I love you with all my heart, I just can't marry you, Carlos. I'm sorry.   When Carlos pictured his wedding day, he saw vows whispered in hushed tones, misty eyes and bright smiles. He saw himself dancing with the man he loved, surrounded by the most important people in their lives, and it always ended with him and TK, in their own bed, in their own home, intertwined with a newfound wealth of love between them.

DP AU - PT AU - Teen Rivals
AU where Vlad is the same age as Danny & Dina. Instead of Vlad going to college with Jack & Maddie, his father, Manfred Masters, did. Manfred didn't get into an accident, instead stealing the Fenton's work. It earns him both their enmity.
Let me just say something; Manfred has severe NPD, meaning Vlad has it in him to become NPD too. Physically, Manfred is the mirror image of canon Vlad if his hair never turned grey & he had a mustache. He's also just like Vlad in how he interacts with others, but worse. So much worse.
He's a conniving, manipulative slimeball. He's power hungry & a sleaze. He's not necessarily crazy, but he is unhinged & simply a rotten person. Admittedly, this is also a result of his own childhood trauma. However, instead of growing to crave closeness like canon Vlad did, Manfred gave up on such things, even beginning to scorn it. He feels that since he never got a good childhood, no one else should be happy either & is much like Spectra in many ways. Unlike Vlad, who craves the love & affection of others but goes about getting it the wrong way, Manfred cares nothing for relationships & views people as tools to be used to his own ends whether via honeyed words from a silver tongue or outright blackmail. He doesn't seek love in any manner, not even truly believing in it due to his own experiences in life & finding those who do to be weak-minded & overly sentimental.
Despite Vlad growing to become an engineering prodigy with a real interest in ectology, it never seemed to be enough for his father, who always demanded more & better.
Again, Manfred is much like canon Vlad, but if he were competent as a villain & patient. He's got a bit of David Xanatos in him if Xanatos was an absolute trash person.
Manfred, being old money, used his power & influence to have his own portal built. Much like the Fentons, his didn't work at first, so a 10 year old Vlad, hoping to gain his father's love, tried to fix it. Much like with the proto-portal, it infects him with ecto-herpies &, after 4 years, this results in him becoming a halfa. Though, this time around, there was no cola contaminant. The transition was painful & slow & he spent those years in the hospital with only his mother coming to visit him. A year into his hospitalization, the ecto-herpies reached his heart & it gave out. When they used the defibrillators on him, he was revived & his transition to halfa began. (Half-a ghost, half-a Lugat. He became a Lugat because his desire for someone who would love & understand him was such that it brought him back to life.) It was only after he'd been revived that his father's portal sputtered to life.
Now, Vlad doesn't come out of it looking like canon Plasmius. His hair isn't in horns (he actually gels his hair to look like that later in the au until Dina confesses that it looks dumb), his skin is flesh-colored, if paler than in human form, & his eyes are the same, but with glowing magenta irises. His ears won't become pointed, nor will he gain claws until he reaches Halfa Puberty. Vlad's canon appearance is due to a severe decline in mental stability & loss of morals. He does have retractable fangs though, but that's because he's half-lugat.
He looks a bit like this:
Tumblr media
Not my art.
At the same time, I think he'd wear a little hooded capelet. Like this:
Tumblr media
But white.
I've seen a picture of teen Vlad wearing one before, but haven't been able to find it again yet.
This Vlad is just a kid, but not even a bad kid, though snobbish, a brat, can be petty, & even a bit of a bully in school at times. A little like Draco Malfoy in a way. However, it's because of his father's mistreatment of him.
Anyway, his father came in when Vlad first transformed. The man now manipulates his son to his own ends much the same way that canon Vlad manipulated Ellie. With honeyed words, hollow praise, & conditionary affection.
The reunion was Manfred's attempt to shove it in the Fentons' faces that he opened a portal first only to find out that they also figured it out. Without his money or resources.
That was the first time that Vlad met the twins. Vlad learns that the twins are like him & doesn't tell his father. Manfred eventually begins to get an inkling that the Fenton twins were also the Phantom twins, but initially dismisses it. Though, the coincidences begin to stack up over time.
Vlad initially appears to be a cocky, arrogant little imp, but eventually turns out to be suffering from neglect, subconscious insecurity, emotional abuse, & manipulation by his father. Before this, if his father wasn't being dismissive, insulting him, or demanding perfection from him, he simply didn't have anything to do with Vlad. Now, his father actually payed attention to him & spoke (somewhat) kindly to him, but it was in an effort to manipulate him. Despite being aware of this, Vlad's deep-seated desire for his father's approval tends to make him crave even that small amount of semi-positive attention from the man & it puts him on the opposite side of the twins.
On the other hand, Vlad's mother, Katerina Romanov-Masters, is the exact opposite. She was the sister to the now dead Dairy King, coming from a generations-long Wisconsin dairy fortune. She is a skilled dairy maid & has a way with cows.
Her hair is chestnut brown, her eyes hazel, & she has a slight tan from working outside with the cows.
Katerina is very sweet & loving, demure, maternal to a fault, emulating a picture perfect housewife & is not even remotely ashamed of it. She adores her son & dotes on him. She is proud of her femininity in a way that not many other women are these days.
She is Catholic & very devoted while Manfred is only Catholic by inheritance, truly being an aethiest & nihilistic, scorning religion of any kind, believing such people who believe in any higher power to be delusional & that Jung's study of religion's effect on psychology to have been a scam. As such, Vlad is very torn theologically.
Katerina's marriage to Manfred was an arranged one. She had hoped that they could learn to love each other, & in some ways, she did love the man, but he neglected, dismissed, & emotionally abused her as well. He wasn't normally physically abusive, but when he was in an especially bad mood & she did something wrong in his eyes, he would hurt her. If it were just her he mistreated, she'd simply endure it, but she did not abide by how he treated her son. Whenever she could, she would try to deflect Manfred's attention from their son, but she wasn't always there to prevent it.
She loves being a mother & it is quite obvious that she was born for the role. More than anything, she wished for a whole hoard of children of her own, but she miscarried her second child & it caused complications that left her all but barren. She developed depression as a result & ever since, she had a tendency to drink her sorrows away at her lowest points.
She loves to bake with Vlad & he loves it back. Katerina was the one who taught him to play the piano. He's the light of her life & she wants him to grow up happy & healthy & to find the loving family that he couldn't with her & his father.
While she was never told by Vlad of his condition, she figures it out on her own & while she had a bit of a mental breakdown at the fact that her son had died & been brought back to life as a half-ghost being, she loves him nonetheless. He was still her little boy.
As is probably obvious, Vlad develops a crush on Dina, but honestly doesn't know what to do about it. He's never really been genuine or shown vulnerability to anyone but his mother, so the idea of doing so with someone else, even a girl he likes, is daunting to him & causes anxiety.
Despite this, he's actually super jealous of the twins. They are like him, but their parents obviously love both them & each other, their mother is happy & adores their father, they have a sister that frets over them, & friends that support them. He wants that. More than anything.
Even still, Dina steadily becomes his first & only real friend.
Part of Vlad's struggle will be in watching his ghost half become more & more ghostly as he does more terrible things for his father. Even beginning to enjoy it to a degree, then feeling guilty for it.
At some point, his skin begins to take on a teal tinge, the tips of his fingers & toes blacken as if burned or frostbitten, it crawls up his fingers the less he cares about right & wrong. Finally, his irises turn burgundy, like wine, before sometimes briefly changing to blood red when he does something particularly wretched for his own benefit & without his father's input. Typically, he feels pretty rotten afterwards which returns them to burgundy. If it ever gets to the point where he no longer cares, does it anyway, & doesn't feel bad about it afterwards, his eyes will remain red. If he ever loses control of his Obsession or loses his mind, the red will consume his eyes entirely like in canon.
When Halfa Puberty hits, it gets even worse with his claws coming in, his tongue reshaping into that of a snake's (making it difficult to speak & he has a bit of a lisp in ghost form for a while), his ears stretching into points (making him more sensitive to sound by enhancing his hearing), & his pupils slit (enhancing his vision, but also forcing him to adjust to bright lights).
He also struggles with feeding his vampiric cravings, both for human blood & core-plasm. It scares him & he worries that he's become a monster.
Manfred builds spybots to, ya know... spy on the Fentons. After the events of the first Freakshow encounter, which he saw through the bots, he is able to recover a shard of red obsidian from the broken staff & has it fastened to a gothic, black steel ring with a bat design. He keeps it on him in case his son ever gets out of line.
It has a much more limited use than the staff did. Only able to control one ghost at a time & via his experimentations, he learns that it's best used subtly.
If he tried to take full control of a ghost all at once, they'd notice & if their will/sense of self-identity was strong enough, they'd be able to break free of it. As such, it was best used slowly over time & little by little, starting with small & simple commands.
He wishes that he had managed to recover a larger piece so that he could try & take control of those meddlesome twins, but alas.
---
While this Vlad has as much potential to become bi as all my other interpretations of him, it's unlikely that he will ever experience a man in any capacity whether romantic or sexual as he'll have found his match early in life. See, no matter what, I see him as heteroromantic even when he is bisexual.
For one, he's only 14 & only knows that he's 'supposed' to be attracted to girls, which he is. In this way, he hasn't even registered guys as a possibility. See the only reason any of my other Vlads had begun to percieve men in a sexual light was due to workplace corruption where his superiors had him service them for promotions.
Once he does get into business, he'll already be in a steady, married relationship with Dina & he'd be appalled at the very idea of so much as touching anyone else in such a manner.
See, Vlad is extremely monogamous in nature & he gets very invested in any relationship he persues. So, he'd never do anything to jeopardize what he has with Dina.
Even if he did develop an awareness of men in such a capacity, it wouldn't matter because he'd never want to persue them. It'd simply be in the way that one admires someone who is attractive. An acknowledgement that they are physically appealing, but no more.
---
By Kindred Spirits, Manfred knows about the twins being halfas & though Vlad swears that he didn't know, Manny is suspicious. Being a scientist himself, though one that has a tendency to take credit for other people's work, he knows just enough to copy Lex Luthor's work with Superboy & make the technology compatible with ectoplasm. (I'm thinking of making him a member of either The Light or the Illuminati, albeit a low-level member. Either way, it's through a twisted sense of thinking himself superior to others & the belief that the masses can't be trusted to think for themselves. He's a huge effing fascist.)
It isn't until Ellie that Manny figures that going about things at least somewhat naturally would make for the greatest success. So, he uses the pod to mix Dina's DNA with Vlad's. This makes her 100% stable.
However, Manfred does not name any of the clones. Instead, he numbers them; VD-001 through VD-004.
Instead of treating them like his children, he vivisects them each to try & learn what makes them tick. He figures that he can't experiment on either Vlad or the twins as that'd draw too much attention.
However, there's no reason to look for someone that doesn't exist.
Vlad is completely unaware of all this until, one night, he finds the cloning room & sees VD-003 & VD-004, Ellie, being made in the pod. At first, he thinks, or at least hopes, that his father is making him siblings because his mother had wanted more children for a long, long time.
All during their incubation, Vlad would come in every night to talk to their sleeping forms. He never really pays any mind to the many jars full of body parts & organs around the room.
Then, one night, he walks in to find VD-003 gone & even more jars than normal. He realizes what's happening & looses his shit. Vlad falls on the floor & begins to hyperventilate until he processes what's happened & when he does, he realizes that he can't be the one to save Eleanor, which was what he'd been calling VD-004. Panicking, he makes a decision & for the first time in his life, he does something to directly sabotage his father; he leaves his home to go to Amity Park & beg the twins to save her.
At first, Danny doesn't believe anyone could be quite so disgusting & is very suspicious of Vlad, but Dina knows that he would never make something like this up.
They fly there & the twins save a 3 year old looking VD-004 who is very confused by everything & doesn't even know how to speak yet. When asked what her name was, Vlad replied Eleanor.
Now, by this point, Ultimate Enemy has happened & the rest of the Fentons know about the twins being halfas. So, when the twins told them what happened, they immediately welcome her into their family.
I'll expand on this later.

A Different Path AU
This is basically the bulk of what's going on in this AU. Please keep in mind I am weak for soft and domestic stuff so this is basically me playing with the idea of what if everyone got to live somewhat normal lives and it will have it's own tag where I'll put other headcanons n such! But if you want the TL;DR here it is:
Everyone made different choices in their early lives and as a result they've been able to lead somewhat normalish lives (no murder n such basically) and they all meet in someway or another through our favorite boy Zack and become one big weird but happy family.
Side Note: This is also a shamless and Self indulgent Danny x Zack AU
Zack:
- Zack instead of murdering the couple who took him in he decided he was going to run while the two were distracted inside. He quite literally ran into a cop and after a moment of thinking he grabs the cop hand and drags them back to the "orphanage" and showed the cop what was going on. Needless to say that night the pair was arrested and Zack was quickly put into a legit orphanage. That night was also the night he promised himself he would never tell a lie.
- He didn't stay long there though due to both the kids and some of the caretakers being scared of him,plus the other kids also called him a monster. So one day in the dead of night he slips out and makes a run for it then after a few days of being on the run he bumps in Reverend Gray. Gray after a little bit of questioning decides to take Zack in and brings him back to his church and raise him but that proves to be a bit of a challenge for Gray.
- Later on Zack meets a certain kind old man who visits the church almost daily. Zack mostly trying to avoid his chores often sits with the old man and listens to his stories,make small talk or just sit there quietly enjoying the peace and quiet of the church. One day however Zack notices that the old man is visiting less and less and after a while he asks Gray what happened to the old man. When Gray tells him that old man is sadly deathly ill Zack becomes one of the old man's other visitors the others being of course Gray and one other family member. The last time Zack ever sees the old man he gives him a very simple request. "Be good won't you? And help out wherever you can you've always have been a big help to me and your father so do your best and live happily". Zack nods and tells him he will mentally adding it onto his own self promise to never tell a lie.
- After the old man's death and brief time of mourning Zack did become a lot more helpful around the church, stopped avoiding his chores and while he still is a bit stubborn with his home schooling he still did his best to honor the old man's memory.
-Later on Zack is now in his 20s has left the church where the Reverend raised him and for now lives alone in the cheapest apartment he could fine. He works for a delivery service loading and unloading boxes. He also sometimes has to tag along with the drivers as thanks to his crazy strength he's able to lift heavier boxes with ease.
- He still has a lot of difficulty reading but he can do it somewhat in this AU, he's much better with numbers but his handwriting either way is absolutely terrible. He doesn't really get the passion to improve until he meets and eventually takes in Rachel and adopts her as his little sister.
Rachel:
- Her origin stays pretty much the same up until the point she meets the puppy. When she decides she wants to take it in and goes back home to ask her parents about it, it goes the same way until she's sent to her room. While she's there she decides to sneak out which is easy due to the fighting constantly going on and goes to check up on the puppy which was sadly already gone seemingly to have disappeared. ( Another person found it and brought it to a vet but she won't find that out).
- She goes home disappointed but her mood becomes worse as she came back to her parents still fighting but it escalated and long story short Rachel witnesses her father murder her mother and in his rage starts chasing after her and in a panic runs for her life.
- With her father in hot pursuit Rachel is quickly using her wits to temporarily ditch her father and as she kept running until she literally runs into a certain bandaged man. Before said man can even get a word out of his mouth she covers it and quietly asks for his help.
- As soon as Zack heard her plea and heard her father calling out for her, he quickly ushered Rachel up to his apartment and kept an eye on the man from his window as Rachel called for help with Zack's phone.
- Once her father was arrested and everything else was taken care of and with nowhere else to go Zack takes in Rachel. It takes them both a bit of time to get used to each other but after a few weeks any outsider would think that they were flesh and blood siblings. Rachel even though she's still fairly expressionless and dead-eyed she is happy and loves her big,weird family very much.
Danny:
- Danny's path diverges after his mother's death and a little after she's been buried. One rainy day young Danny decided to go visit his mother's grave after school as well as ditch his therapy session but in his rush to get there he forgets his umbrella. He ends up soaked but he doesn't care as he just wants to visit his mom's grave.
- Meanwhile Zack who was inside of the church at the time notices Danny out of the window and cursing under he breath about what a dumbass this guy was he grabbed an umbrella and headed outside. At first Zack doesn't say anything as he's coming up to Danny but then he sighs and puts the umbrella over Danny once he's close enough which catches Danny off guard. Confused at first at the lack of rain hitting him, he turns and sees Zack and of course Danny being Danny notices his eyes first and he's fascinated by them. He's never seen someone with eyes like Zack's, he's so captivated by them infact that Zack has to call out to him to snap him out out of his thoughts and that's when he notices the other things about the other boy.
- As Danny is contemplating Zack,Zack gets annoyed and grabs Danny by the wrist which surprised him. While it was a firm,strong grasp it was also surprising gentle almost as if Zack was afraid he would hurt the other boy if his grip was tighter so after a gentle tug from Zack Danny followed him inside so they could warm up and dry off.
- That day Danny made a new friend one who he often visited whenever he could and would spend hours upon hours hanging out with Zack, who even helped convince Danny continue his therapy sessions and they even went together sometimes to support each other. Until one fateful day Danny had to move away due his father getting a job offer he couldn't refuse and Danny made a promise that he wouldn't forget Zack and that they would meet again someday. Zack held him to that promise by saying his famous words of hating liars and the ass kicking he would get if he did forget which both boys laughed about before their bittersweet fairwell.
- Years later Danny does become a psychiatrist and helps all that he can. However he was starting to miss his home town so once he had enough saved up he bought himself a bigger home than he needed (he got it cheap and it's a bit of a fixer upper which Zack eventually helps him out with) and settled in. Then one particularly cold morning Danny quiet literally bumps into Zack as they headed into a coffee shop and the second it clicks as to who this is they decided to sit down and catch up over a cup of coffee and hot chocolate.
- That coffee shop is now one of Danny's favorite places and he along with Zack,Rachel and Eddie visit often.
Eddie:
- Eddie's path diverges once his eldest brother starts his abusive tendencies.
- Scared of his big brother Eddie starts to avoid going back home after school. He often tires to hang out with other kids but it's an uphill battle for him to make friends until he met Rachel. Of course it was love at first sight but he also wanted to be friends with her so that was his first goal.
- It takes him a while but he does eventually befriend her and he starts coming over often to Zack's apartment so that he and Rachel can do homework and hang out for a while before he eventually has to leave which always saddens him.
- Zack however starts catching on by the way Eddie acts when it's time for him to go. So he decides to try and talk to Eddie, it takes a while but Eddie eventually opens up about what's going on at home and much to Eddie's surprise Zack sympathizes with him and offers to let him stay over whenever he needed it which Eddie happily accepted.
Gray:
Gray is just a normal Reverend in this AU and he doesn't use his drug mist unless it's absolutely necessary and/or for self defense. He was however a scientist before he became a Reverend.
He wears glasses sometimes depending on what he's doing.
Gray was a bit to lenient with Zack when he first adopted him but thanks to help from his coworkers he was able to raise Zack as best as he could.
Home schooling Zack was a nightmare for Gray but he persisted and did his best to teach Zack all he could, though it was extremely hard Gray was so proud of Zack throughout school and his eventual graduation (Zack was cutting it very close to be able to graduate). On Zack's graduation day he couldn't stop smiling as he was so happy and proud.
‐ Gray eventually just became the group's dad and if they ever need "fatherly" advice or just someone to talk to he's usually the one everyone goes to, he also taught Zack and is now teaching Rachel and Eddie how to drive.
Cathy and Lucy:
Cathy and Lucy's paths diverged in college where they got degrees in fashion.
They eventually opened their own shop where they make all sorts of outfits and the two run it together as a happily married couple.
The two met Zack through Rachel who was curious about the shop and eventually got a part time job with them when she was old enough to do so. Zack often came by to either drop off or take her to lunch as well as drop her off and pick her up as well. Through a few conversations as well as impromptu lunch breaks they all became close friends.
Lucy and Cathy are basically the fun aunts and on their days off they sometimes take Rachel and sometimes Eddie out on shopping trips,park visits, etc.
When the girls are alone and working they'll have light conversations but mostly they just enjoy each other's company.

Boardwalk au
*How did I get here?*
*I was running around with some friends of mine and just enjoying myself.we were trespassing sure but we weren't vandalizing.that was only at dollar tree*
You laugh at your inner thoughts as you keep walking through the closed down building.it was huge and it makes no sense to you.years ago the place shut down and left everything in here.it was crazy.even food was left and stuff,it just seemed so odd.why would anyone waste like this?it was about five years ago
*At least I'm alone and no crazy people are here,tho I doubt any one would ever come near this place-*
As you somehow jinks it you hear a car and see the cop car outside the window and hide as the cops walk in.
"I'm telling ya Danny no body is here whatever we saw in the window at most is a ghost man" Danny just shrugs "guess you got a point.I mean so many people have gone missing here can you imagine even coming here willingly?" " ......Danny we are both here willingly... " "oh yeah...that's fair"
*Huh? so that's why they closed*
You go to sneak out but the floor gives some and makes a loud creak.you curse your luck and movie like bad timing and run off as the cops start looking around with a flashlight.
*Damn,damn,damn,damn! Where do I even go?!oh! There is a back door!......wait what the f-*
As you mentally panic after stepping out the door you freeze and tremble in fear.it was a pastel old fashioned board walk.it was stunning but it looked like you were looking through a old tv.it looked endless,but the worst part is that there was never anything behind this place because of the lake.
*How?why?when did this get here!?*
You look around and notice that the store was now just a cliff side to a endless mountain it seems.staring up at the talk tower like thing.you just back up freaked out and try to take a deep breath and bump into a wall just leaning on it.
"......hello New neighbor..."
You jump up and away in fear,,barely not screaming and turn to look at.....oh dear God.....
