One of the most interesting things to talk about with others who enjoy chonny jash is how heart was blinded. From what I've seen, there's 3 main ideas. Mind did something that led to heart being blinded, heart blinded himself, or soul blinded heart.
There are, of course, infinite little intricacies on who did what and how that effects the lore of the album, and I am going to talk about MY specific details. Before I start pulling out medical textbooks I would just like to add that I personally believe that HMS cannot really die, but they sure can suffer! If this were to happen to a real person they would 100% die instantaneously. So don't uhh.. blind ur friends with a trident in an act of poorly placed rage.
Generally, I like to think that heart was blinded by soul using his trident. Now, given the general size and shape of the trident there is no way this thing is easy to use. Traditionally, tridents had a few uses, but were generally a one handed weapon that was used in gladiator fighting and fishing. I like to think that soul's trident is a two handed weapon that is used mainly for show, and when needed, an example.
Now, when attacking with a, somewhat comically oversized weapon, you have to plan in advance on how to deal with their disadvantages. they are typically hard to carry, hard to use, and they have a weird amount of weight in hard to balance areas.
Large weapons usually rely a LOT on gravity and well calculated movements to really do their job. This makes them effective and actually useful. Soul did not really care about anything effective, and was generally just doing it in this horrific fit of rage.
The main issue(s) is that soul didn't really calculate for ANY of the disadvantages. When he drove this horrific mass of metal and hatred into Heart's skull it wasn't elegant. He nearly falls and pushes his full weight against the trident. This means that he not only slammed this thing into his face, but it also means that he MOVED THE TRIDENT AROUND THAT WAS INSIDE OF HEARTS BRAIN. This horrific fuck up of an attack actually ends up making the damage much more intense, not just because of the brain damage, but also because soul 100% broke his skull open and fractured multiple bones in his face.
In most cases of people getting stabbed and sustaining damage to their brain there are no long term neurological effects (given it was just. Knife into brain and then out. Doesn't account for those who we're stabbed multiple times in the head/those who sustained more damage than the initial wound.)However, Heart cannot be so lucky. Given the forcefulness of the injury, and the elongated Spear on top of the trident's three pronged blade, this is not just a stab wound.
He would sustain a lot of trauma to the frontal lobe. I will be using this umbrella term of "Frontal Lobe Syndrome" to describe a lot of the damage heart took. Generally he would have brain damage, I just want to use something more specific that I believe encompasses most of what I am saying?
The trauma he would experience would not just be due to the initial stab itself. Taking out the blade would most certainly cause more damage. The curved prongs only go in one way, and by the time it's pulled out, there a good change that the violent push and pull to wrench the thing out of his head with cause EXPONENTIALLY more damage than the initial blow.
Frontal lobe syndrome is a term used to describe the damage of higher functioning processes of the brain such as motivation, planning, social behavior, and language/speech production. Now! Every case is very different, but for heart I will highlight a few things! First off, his optic chiasm was definitely damaged. Along with this! I feel as if his prefrontal cortex would take the most damage, but the frontal eye field would get messed up as well just due to the shape of the trident's tips and how they were pulled out of his head
This means that the biggest impact this blinding would have brain-wise (other than the complete / near complete loss of Vision) is that heart's emotional regulation would be extremely limited and he could experience a variety of symptoms from a sort of pseudo-depressive state to violent outbursts.
Besides the emotional implications, there is no way heart kept both of his eyes. In the best case, he might be able to see out of one of them, but even then, with the damage to the complex optical nerve connections, who's saying what he could see out of the remaining eye. If he were to see, there's a good chance that at least half of his vision would be completely dark, and that it would be fuzzy and.. almost like the cornea was taken out of eye, just darker and much more limited due to the brain damage.

more cfau miscellaneous things because Childhood Friends Danny and Jason have my head and heart always and I need to finish rewriting chapter two dammit (and redo the half-finished chapter 4 because its just Not The Vibes). i'm almost through I need to get through the graveyard scene. (i just stubbornly refuse to have it be shorter than the original chapter and thats the little death. that is the mind killer.)
Danny and jason’s ghost forms both smell faintly like burnt flesh and cigarettes. However, Jason has a more smokey smell while Danny’s smells almost,,, electrical? In a sense? Like he just straight up smells like burnt flesh and sulphur while Jason smells like someone put him in a smoker first.
It’s very much an unpleasant smell but Danny finds an odd comfort in it just as much as he finds a comfort in the smell of nicotine.
(Jason post-revival smells burnt flesh once and is immediately offput by the fact that it brings him an instinctive comfort. He doesn’t realize its because it reminds him of Danny, and is uncomfortable by it.)
-
In an au of an au, Danny’s altercation with Rath ends with Rath regaining enough of his sanity to snap out of the grieving state and ends with him breaking down. Instead of being souped and imprisoned, Rath, who is permanently 14, decides to Move On into the unknown. He’s exhausted, heartbroken, and tired.
(Is this influenced heavily by the ParaNorman scene where he talks to Agatha and helps her move on? Yes. But it doesn’t fit with the Original Storyline so im shoving it into an Au of an Au.)
Rath tells Danny that Jason lied to them (which he genuinely believes), and that he’s tired of waiting/looking for him/grieving. Jason is gone. He isn’t coming back, he abandoned them. And he wants his mom and dad, and his sister, and his friends. And he’s ready to join them.
He leads Danny out to Gotham, which other than Amity Park might’ve been the only city left untouched due to Rath’s own mental block on the place. They go out to the park he and Jason used to frequent or up to one of crime alley’s rooftops, and there Rath lies down and goes to sleep. Only to never wake up again, materializing into nothing as his soul moves on.
Before Rath leaves, he forces Danny to promise him that he’ll only wait for Jason for ten years. After that if he doesn’t find him, or if Jason doesn’t show, then Danny has to move on. Whether that be like how Rath does, or if its inly mentally/emotionally, doesn’t matter. He has to move on. Don’t wait for him. Don’t waste his time any more.
(“Oh, and if you find him, kick his ass for me.”)
Danny reluctantly agrees, and Rath lies down. Danny sings to him as he falls asleep.
(Angsty points if the vigilantes including Red Hood caught wind of their presence and were silently watching from the shadows. Rath might know they’re there, but Danny’s too focused on Rath to notice.)
(If only so that Red Hood realizes that this is what happened to Danny, and that Danny is gone before he can make things right. The tragedy, folks. The angst. The initial realization that Danny was Rath, and then also that Danny was dead and has been dead for years, and that before he moved on, he moved on believing that Jason abandoned him.)
(like i said it doesn't fit in the original timeline/storyline hence why its an au of an au and isn't nearly a fleshed out, but i was largely just focusing on the tragedy of Rath moving on and Jason being alive to see it and realize just who Rath is.)
-
Just like how the Lazarus pits shot Jason's twiggy 4'6-5'4 (depending on what you find) feet tall and 86lb ass up like a tree an essentially fixed his malnutrition, the portal did the same thing for Danny.
(granted i forgot about malnutrition and danny's likely stunted growth at first -- his family lived in crime alley and despite both his parents working, I don't think they had enough food all the time. He probably wasn't as badly malnourished as Jason was, but he wasn't healthy either.)
Granted his ghost in its "natural" state (14) is short, and his growth spurts were slow at first, it did result in him reaching his dad's height. There were points where it just happened overnight, like a baby. He went to bed one night 5’6 and woke up the next day 5’10.
Jazz is shorter than him. Although I have't decided if she's even liminal at all (and if she is, it didn't cure everything because she would have also suffered childhood malnutrition, and since in au canon their parents didn't get their hands on physical ectoplasm until after they got to Amity Park. So the exposure is less.)
-
Danny's voice absolutely sounds like canon Dan's. It kinda just dropped one day when he was 16-17 and never went back up. Sam and Tucker sometimes ask him to just talk about anything because they find his voice soothing.
I'm not sure yet how Danny would feel about it at first considering Rath, but I imagine that Rath, when he did speak, would have had a quieter and scratchier/weaker voice considering he's spent the last decade shrieking and crying.
(and i suppose technically that shouldn't have any effect on his throat considering he's a ghost and idk if that would actually affect him, but i like the idea so im keeping it)
In the beginning you could hear him from a mile away by the sound of his loud, echoing wails, but ten years later you can only really hear him by the soft, shuddering sobs he makes. Like he's gasping for air that isn't there. The future is full of very quiet survivors.
And it's much easier to speak when you pitch your voice upwards (especially when whispering/speaking quietly) so he might've spoken in a higher, airy pitch in order to be heard. So Danny might actually find a comfort in having a lower voice.
#tw mentions of gore#cw gore#i suppose this counts as gore#dp x dc#danny fenton is not the ghost king#dp x dc crossover#dpxdc#dpxdc crossover#childhood friends au#cfau#really leaning into the idea of rath just being a horror. the horrors! i am delighted in the horrors!#im having fun with it#i swear to god turning 19 turned a switch on in my brain because i am much more comfortable with gore and heavy injury now than i was l#literally a year ago. the urge to write about some of danny's most horrific injuries in his fights is STRONG#like the hORRORS folks. *th horrors*. i dont think i'll ever write a dissection fic because that icks me out but the idea that danny's had#to stitch up his own throat because it got slit in a fight nd he cant shift back to human until he's done because his ghost will survive bu#his body wont#the idea that he's been impaled multiple times before and it hurts each fucking time but he still gets up and hurls the hurt right back in#equal measure. because that's how you wanna play? okay. lets play. he's 14 and his best friend is dead. he can play.#and the idea that all ghosts have 'corpse' forms where their ghosts look exactly like how they died. and danny is utterly unrecognizable#jazz being liminal or not just isnt important to me because she's barely gonna show up in the story anyways#same reason why i hardly use the headcanon that ellie becomes danny's daughter because what use is she to me like that? she'll hardly have#an impact on the story and i refuse to treat characters like props. if they can't help progress the story then they aren't included

alrighty i didnt get all the pokemon done (not even close tbh) but i had a little thought dont mind me
Smitten with a lit match, admiring it for a moment. Cold watches.
Smitten catches his eye and turns to him. An adoring smile falls on his face as he rolls the match between his thumb and forefinger.
With a twist of his wrist, he flicks it at Cold. The small but bright flame darts through the air.
Though caught off-guard a bit, Cold catches it before it hits his face, and his scaly fingers close around it, snuffing out the miniature fire. He recognizes the pain singeing his palm, but he doesn't let it affect him.
He raised an eyebrow at Smitten, then looks down at the crumbled, char-black mess in his hand.
"Aw," Smitten coos, scooting over to him, "Did you burn your hand?"
Cold found himself speechless as the look of adoration turned into something teasing. The other took is hand and brushed away the remains of the match.
Smitten stares at him with lidded eyes.
"You poor thing," he purrs.
