Dead Twins

so a dpxdc idea that’s been floating in my head for a long time.

i’ve seen jason and danny being each other’s alternate selves from another reality or father and son, but never as twins, i’ve seen danny being a twin or look alike to all the other batboys (mostly damian) but never with jason.

so they could be the children of the fenton’s but it’s easier for me to write them as children of willis and sheila, willis taking one child and sheila taking the other so she can get child support or something and once she’s done with him she dumps him in an orphanage, where tye fenton’s pick him up as a friend for their daughter jazz.

jason and danny both grow up never feeling alone due to a twin bond between them, when one was feeling sad the other would send happy feelings to cheer the other up, but they couldn’t tell each other’s thoughts or location, their bond streched thin from their separation. so when jason dies, danny feels the bond snap and he feels jason’s last moments, his sadness, his fear, his feelings of betrayal and helplessness at his situation, and it sends him into a depression spiral that not even his sister or friends can get him out of. he could feel himself dying, slowly fading from existence his body failing him at every turn, it wasn’t just depression, it wasn’t just in his head as his sister tried to tell him, it was physical he could tell .so when his parents machine fails and his friends ask him to go inside to take a picture he doesn’t argue even though he knows how dangerous it could be, knows that many of his parents inventions malfunction or backfire in horrible ways. so he doesn’t notice the protruding wire on the floor and trips pushing the on button on the wall as he tries to stabilize himself. he dies and comes back not knowing that when he came back his brother came back with him.

the bond comes back but it’s weak barley stable only assuring the other that they were alive. both being connected to death, to ectoplasm, danny a halfa and jason a resurrected revrent with a core.

their reunion could go several ways:

1. The Ghost King Way

enter world ending threat that the JL can’t defeat and need to summon the ghost king to defeat. danny apears in all his space obssesed ghost king glory, and instantly feels a connection with this strange man wearing a red helmet standing at the back the same bond he has always felt since he was born. jason also feeling this stange bond is very confused as to why his bond leads to the ghost king. they end up hanging out as their alter egos neither knowing that they are in facr twins, their bond strengthening the longer they spend time together. they first start out hanging out at the watchtower but later start hanging out in gotham, jason finaly has himself declared alive again which makes into the paper, that danny ends up seeing.

2. The Jazz Way

Jazz ends up working at arkham asylum much to her brother’s dismay and manged ti make him promise her not visit for at least a month. que her bumping into jason at the library or a coffee shop and sees what she thinks is danny (who she can also sense because she’s liminal) stalking her after explicitly told him not to follow her to gotham and she is furious, she pulls jason by the ear and starts to lecture him in the middle of the road, ‘i trusted you’ and ‘how could you’ and ‘you promised me’ and ‘why did you dye your hair like that’ ,and jason is like ‘lady who are you?’, his siblings are standing to the side laughing at him. jazz realizes that’s not her brother, she shows them a picture of danny and they all agree that they ate identical, and agree to set up a meeting. when they meet they realize that that’s who their bond conects to.

3. The Ellie Way

ellie is traveling around the world visiting all the famous places and decides to visit gotham and ends up seeing jason thinking he’s danny she barrels into him sreaming ‘DADDY’ and jason is very confused, like WTF, she soon relizes that this isn’t danny despite their ecto- signature being almost exactly the same if not for the weird corruption jason has, but decides to be a troll anyways and pretend that jason is her dad danny. she pretends to be very upset that her daddy doesn’t remember her, and shows them pictures on her phone of her and danny doing father daughter things, cuddling, playing. jason on the other hand thinks ‘oh my god did i have a daughter that i forgot about’. they take her home and run a dna test just incase (ellie is just waching the chaos, she also wants to know why he feels so much like danny) and while not a match for a father it is for a close relative like an uncle. with the her act done ellie tells them about danny and how he was adopted and they realize that their related.

-ellie could either be aged up by vlad or rescued and raised by danny before she was aged up.

*** or it could be dan too, actually it would be way funnier if it was dan. grown ass man proclaiming that you are his father, with photographic evidence. they might think he’s from the future or something. dan it just doing it for shits and giggles.

*** or both, both together is also funny, because they would squabble like the siblings they are and jason would have to act like a dad to make them stop.

4. The Ellie Way 2

in this one it’s better that ellie is not aged up.

after danny let her go on a camping trip with his parents while he goes on a business trip or to attend ghost king duties, ellie is kidnapped by meta children traffickers, after seeing her float for a bit. maddie and jack don’t want danny to worry or be disappointed by them try to find her without telling him. ellie ends up in gotham and ends up rescued by jason, senseing his ectoplasm that feels almost exactly like danny, and clings to him fully believing that he is her dad danny, and the only reason he didn’t find her straight away is because his ecto became corrupted. jason is now stuck with a little girl that insists that he’s her father going off of nothing but that he feels like her father so he’s her father. he ends up taking her to the manor and takes off his helmet and tells her “look at me, do i look like your daddy” to which she insists that yes he is her daddy. so they ask if she knows her dad’s number to which she answers yes, they call danny and tell him that they found his daughter, danny is predictably worried and furious because his daughter had been kidnapped and his parents didn’t tell him, he rushes over and the batfam is like omg they look really identical. of course the reunion between danny and ellie is tear filled, lots of hugs and kiss.

5. The Vacation Way

they go on a vaction to lets say the beach, with all their family, jason with the batboys and batgirls and danny with his parents sister and dan and ellie included.

*** jason and danny go to a food truck to get food with steph and ellie. because of the large amount of food they’re carrying they can’t see so they need some one to guide them back, que ellie and steph taking the wrong twin back to their area. both jason and danny ate very confused, who are you people. both families think that something must have happened because neither twin knows who these people are. danny is confused but all for having more siblings and another father, while jason doesn’t understand why a teenager (ellie) and a full grown man (dan) are calling him dad. they both go back to the food truck so that they could maybe trace the problems back and end up meeting.

*** or they could be swimming and end up in each other’s area.

*** or a volleyball game that got too intense, either from the trained batfam or ghost strenght/ectoplasm enhanced family.

for this it’s funnier if ellie and dan were older.

6. The Business Way

danny started a company with sam and tucker, and is heading to a meet with wayne enterprise in gotham. he gets there a few days early just in case, and goes around site seeing and end up meeting memebers of the batfam along the way, he doesn’t know who these people are but they’re very friendly and it’s freaking him out, meanwhile the batfam are very sad that jason is pretending he doesn’t know them even though they had finally put away their differences. it isn’t until the meeting that they realize no that is not jason. or tim who is ceo could think that jason showing up for the meeting is a very elaborate prank

-random snippets that could fit anywhere-

danny telling jason that he felt him die.

for angst both jason and danny having Y shaped scars.

when talking about their death they find out that when when danny died and came back jason came back with him (i got this from a fic where jason and danny were soulmates on ao3, i don’t remember the name if anyone knows that fic tell me.)

the batboys and girls acting as uncles and aunts to ellie and/or dan.

comparing crazy family shenanigans.

/each way could be an entire fic really but im to lazy to be fully invested in writing these as actual fics with good grammar and consistent updates./

feel free to use these ideas, but tag me if you do i really wanna what others come up with.

Barry, Constantine, and the Kid

I was reading "I Just Wanna Talk" by foldingfacets and the way Barry interacts with Danny, and his whole misunderstanding just gave me a very very good fic idea.

Danny was Constantine's kid! But thanks to whatever ex had him, John had no idea who Danny was, nor that his kid had been put up for adoption. (I'm feeling a random one-night stand with some god-adjacent being so that Danny was already very much Other, compared to normal people). His not fully human blood had him survive the Fenton household, seeing as Jazz had radiation exposure since she was little basically so she'd survived thanks to that.

Danny kinda figured he was adopted. Sure his hair was black like Jack's and his blue eyes weren't anything abnormal, but his parents were both very very white. And he was much more tan, definitely Mideastern. Jazz actually confirmed it when he asked one time, but he still loved them all dearly. He tried to love them all, but it was hard when the only one he really remembers raising him is his sister. Until the accident happens and things just go south.

Like, Danny does his whole hero thing, and works things out with his ghosts because most of them were either messing around or didn't realize he was actually a baby ghost because he was so strong or smth, idk, they cooperate with him and just come to bug him and play fight when bored or needing to satisfy their core. All in all, he's King of the Infinite Realms now and he is not having a good time tm-

He's SEEN all the John Constantine things, but never bothered with tracking this guy down because hey! selling his soul to multiple entities to prevent ANYONE from getting it was really smart! Who was he to fault the guy.

It kind of all comes crashing down though when things go horribly ary with his adoptive parents. He overheard them talking, and even though they did love him, he learned that to them he wasn't just their kid. He was still the kid Jazz really wanted for a brother. After literally growing up in their house, he wasn't on the same level as Jazz. Simply because he was adopted, and neither had truly planned to adopt him.

And despite learning this, he tries so hard to still love and few them as his parents, because he's NOT their kid! They're right, but they still raised him no they didn't it was Jazz and he thought that they at least loved him more than that some part of him knew they never had. So when Jazz suggests they tell them, together for his own safety, he agrees for two reasons. 1, he loves and trusts Jazz and she really wanted to believe they were better than just ghost hunting. 2, he could finally know the truth, whether they would not believe him, hate him, or love him.

They don't.

Maddie and Jack both believe he died due to their creation. They don't doubt that for a moment. Jazz is thrilled at first, thinking that meant they would feel sorry, apologize, accept Danny, ANYTHING except harm him. But she was wrong as they tried to shoot him. She tried to stop them, and they told her even if he was Danny, that he was a ghost which meant it wasn't ever really going to be him again. And Jazz was horrified, asking how they could shoot their own son, ghost or not, and as if it was the simplest thing in the world, they say he wasn't their son.

And that was it.

Danny ran.

He hid in the ghost zone, and Jazz tried to come with. She ended up destroying the portal, outing Vlad, and running away with a voice recorder of their parents and the conversation they'd had. Sam and Tucker have to lay low, only messaging Danny to ask if he'd been hurt.

Danny didn't reply.

After a few months, his friends had gotten a reply a few days after, so had Jazz, saying he was fine and Fright Knight was watching over him, which was true but the Knight was more worried than anything, Pandora stopped by. She was kind of like an aunt, so she hated to see him sad. But she'd also realized something.

Halfa, as most VERY old ghosts and Ancients know, are rare to find. Vlad was an odd case, being Halfa-adjacent but not a true Halfa since it took 20 years for his powers to grow to what they were when it was normal for quick power growth like Danny. Not only does one need to die with a bunch of ectoplasm nearby, but they must have a few other requirements. Such as a bond with the supernatural, strong magic, etc. No mortal being without very strong and innate abilities would survive a full Halfa creation. So she'd always been curious as to how Danny survived when even heroes who'd been exposed to death would not near chance of being a Halfa.

Being a demi-god made it a lot easier. Even then, not all demi-gods would survive either, seeing as it would be rare for them to be within range of the ectoplasm needed to balance their god-like blood. Danny was an incredibly special case. Pandora had found out that Danny wasn't just a demi-god, but the human who was his parent was an incredibly strong magic user. So much so, that he'd tricked and tried his way through many many years of his life. Honestly, Pandora was amazed the human was alive.

Telling Danny of his father was not in her plan, though she did tell him of his demi-god blood. She also told him, that it may be safer with heroes.

So with a little time to heal, not really he was still bandaged up but at least he wasn't about to fall apart, Danny got Wulf and Cujo, the former opening a portal with a sad goodbye for the time being. (Really, Wulf would always know where Danny was.) Either way, Danny had planned to find this John Constantine, since seeing as he'd somehow avoided death all while dimension hoping, he was probably a good bet. Or at the very least could help him find a hero to help.

Falling through the portal with Cujo, he hadn't expected a giant room in what he could only guess was a secret base. There was a hero, he really should have looked up heroes, but most of his childhood hadn't really given him access to anything outside of his hometown, which was staring in shock at him.

And Flash meets Danny.

And instantly wants to adopt the kid. Sorry, Bruce! This one is his kid actually! But when he hears the boy's reason for being there, the poor kid looking utterly terrified and apologetic for barging in and trying to explain how Constantine's contact info had led him here, Barry is just crushed. He's keeping the kid entertained, panicking, and trying to contact John.

Wally ends up meeting him while they're waiting, and it instantly taking this kid as his own new brother. If his boyfriend gets a bunch of younger siblings so does he!

Either way, both speedsters are already filing adoption papers, not really as much as Barry wants to because he knows better than to take in an unknown even with how horrifying this child's accidental slips of his home-life was like.

So we have an MIA John, not like that's rare-, an unknown child who they really need to test DNA for but don't want to scare him, speedsters already mentally said kid's parent, and a whole lot of chaos. Danny had no IDEA that Constantine is his bio dad, Clockwork had Pandora hint him this way for a reason though...he got a dad one way or another and in some universes, he had 2. So. No loss situation to the Ancient.

They are not ready for this traumatized ass kid because he doesn't even realize he'd traumatized. Wait till he has a panic attack though, Danny, despite his apparent obliviousness to how fucked up he should be, will finally seem like the hurt kid he is.

And oh boy, wait till someone accidentally jostles a wound during that whole first meeting since Danny's hiding his wounds. Now that's a whole other bag of worms to open, like how'd he get them????

Aye yo, Imma catch some big angst for this, but...what if the deceased Flying Graysons got their own realm in the Ghost Zone? Like, it's a legit, authentic Undead Circus (not whatever Freakshow was doing) and the ghosts in that domain are able to do things that other ghosts can't! Would Danny even tell Dick (once he put 2 and 2 together)?

Aww Danny had just seen their show in the GZ too! And it clicks.. awwww idk if he would. I imagine him acting weird til eventually someone makes him spill. Because he just feel so guilty especially if combine idea of like Dick trying to show Danny real circus and he like yeah i been to one in ghost zone- o - o >>' Tries not to mention more about it.. but just eventually spills.. maybe not even to dick but like one of the other members because of how Danny been "ghosting" Dick.. probably damian.. idk i get the feeling he be the finally force.. determined. =w= kek So danny just spills and its very panicked because he just like IDK if i should tell or not! Because he has that own problem in telling his folks.. or maybe worse his own parents reacted badly that Danny is half-ghost so maybe some trauma from that swaying his decisions.

Eventually can see Dick does know. He grows silent for a while and then asks if he can go see him. Everyone wanting to go too.. but maybe dick just wants to go alone.. bruce and fam come anyways but jazz or sam n tuck takes them secretly after. So they can support dick. Danny just nervously sitting and watching in the crowd with Dick. Glancing back and fourth from him and the center of tent. Dick growing silent, breath hitched when seeing his parents. Maybe almost going to a panic because he's expecting them to fall to their deaths- But feels a firm hand on his shoulder, bruce there giving him a smile. (though he probably curious if his own parents are in the zone.. but put it aside til after helping his son) Batfam squeezing through the crowd, popcorn and all. Damian sitting next to Dick while others sit behind. After the show, Danny asked if he wanted to meet them. Dick debates for a moment, then nodding. Wanting them to meet his other family. Bittersweet.. but it makes dick feel sad but so relieved to finally get to see them one more time. At least what my brain came up with kek. Also batfam totally tease dick and tell Dick's parents some of the crazy stuff he been up to. XD =w= lighten the situation.

Twins au

Danny dies a little after born and become a little ghost with the obsession of protecting his twin (the only person he was familiar). Damian grows used to have a friend that no one except him can see (everybody thinks that Danny is an imaginary friend), later Talia sees Danny. She was contented to see her son, but if her lost son is back, he needs to live.

That's how she starts experimenting with clonation, to get Danny a body (what later she would use to create Damian's clones). When is ready, she fuses Danny's ghost with the body, but when Danny awakes he can't remember who was he.

Talia sees this as an opportunity for her son to be free, so she takes the little Danny the only 7 years and give to some assassins who were planning leave the league.

These assassins wants their son to live in a safe environment and don't be use as a hacker tool. They make a deal with talia, she helps them leave and they take care of her son.

Talia is happy that at least one of her sons will have a best life, but she is heartbroken to see his little Damian so sad to lose his only friend, even if Damian denied (neither damian nor danny knew about them being twins)

She decide that someday she'll reunite them

The assassins were tucker's parents and his son Tucker. Danny becomes Tucker's best friend and Tucker's parents tell them that Danny or Danyal (Danny conserves his birthname!) is the son of a friend but she can't take care of him and ask them to.

Danny is trained by tucker's parents as last petition of Talia, but not tucker. They don't want that their little boy learn anything of their past live (Tucker only live because they said to Ra's that he was a smart boy and that could be useful have a specialist personal hacker by how the technology influences the people nowadays. Tucker lived in a small room and pass all his days being train to be the best hacker to Ra's, by this Tucker become claustrophobic and when they leave the league he try to forget everything of their past).

The duo become in a trio when they meet Sam.

Jazz still becomes in Danny's sister, but is more like she adopt the whole trio as her little siblings (why one if she can have three)

The canon pass in both sides, but early in Danny side (he become a halfa at his 10 years). The trio was visiting their sister when they hear something coming from the lab, they go downstairs and found a depress fenton parents who tell them about the portal before leave. Sam wants a picture of the portal, Danny enters into it and tripped over it, activating the portal. Jazz open the door and hear Danny's scream.

This time the cause of the twin's reunion is Vlad.

Vlad still creating Dani but this time he thinks ¿Why should I bother making a new research when there out exist previous investigations?

So, he steals Talia's and Lex's investigations about cloning, painting in his and amity's back a target. Ra's is furious when he finds out that Talia was keeping secrets from him, but Talia is a step before him.

She needs to take her son to a safest place and she knows where.

Look like is time for her sons to reunite

_________________________________________________

Notes: Danny is the Prince of the ghost zone, but he doesn't know and thinks that the ghost that treat him with respect and adoration is because he being the 'Saviour of the infinity realms'. Apart he have classes with Pandora, Dora and the ghost writer. Talia gets a report of her son every month and tucker's parent know of him being a halfa, but Danny don't know they know.

Damian is a liminal by spend time with Danny (as a ghost) and the lazarus pit. Dani can feel Damian signature too.

Your rb has induced this blurb. I hope you suffer(have a good day)

We will begin with Fulin. To put it simply, Fulin is Blade’s adoptive son. Fulin is a 150-200ish year old Foxian who currently is in charge of Blade’s old smithy down in Aurum Alley. Fulin has the ears of a fennec fox and greenish-black hair/fur, his skin is unusually dark due to the smithy forge and pseudo-melanism, his eyes are a vibrant purple-red. He was left at an orphanage at a young age and doesn’t remember his birth parents, not that he wants to. It wasn’t long after that Yingxing came by the orphanage, invited by Baiheng, and immediately took a liking to Fulin.

Fulin was then adopted two weeks later. He came to Yingxing’s smithy and was instantly interested in blacksmithing. From there it spiraled into Blade teaching Fulin how to forge weapons and other miscellany. When Yingxing and Dan Feng started becoming close though Fulin was hilariously protective. And Dan Feng was just as eager to return the hostility. Its hella fucking funny to think of someone like the High Elder beefing with a kid over said child’s father.

After the whole ✨incident✨Fulin was taken in by Jing Yuan who is his current legal guardian and supervisor. He’s like Yanqing’s cool older brother in a sense. Fulin has a tense and uncomfortable relationship with the General though. After all, he was Blade’s old coworker…

He’s not mad at Dan Heng though, as a matter of fact, he’s hella quick to accept that Dan Heng and Dan Feng are two separate people and does not harbor any hatred for our Danny boy.

Blade misses his son dearly.

Next up is Furor Tontrui, the last High Elder of the Xianzhou Daiyu before its fall into Thalassa. Furor is currently held in prison in a secluded planet. Why? Because he is an Emanator of Abundance.

Furor is kept in a high security prison due to his existence as an Emanator and is actually treated rather poorly at the prison, dehumanized and all. He’s only as sane as he is due to Jing Yuan visiting him. In turn, Furor is obsessed with Jing Yuan and relishes in each second the two spend together as he is the only person who actually speaks with him. He lives a very lonely life.

Furor doesn’t remember his name, not that it really matters anymore. So he goes by Furor Tonitrui instead. He was imprisoned by the High Elders at the time and has been in isolation for forever, for several hundred generations. He didn’t even know the Daiyu fell until Jing Yuan told him. He is the only “survivor” of the Daiyu.

Furor is a very sad existence and HATES Yaoshi for making him an Emanator just for the fun of it and suffers from something like bipolar disorder, constantly saying contradicting things between his “sane” brain and his Emanator brain. Oh and did i mention his horns, that were a physical thing unlike Dan Heng’s, were snapped into pieces and now only stubs of amethyst-like crystal? Not only was he stripped of his humanity he was also maimed! :D

I have more hsr ocs but i’ll keep it to two for now. I have quite a few genshin ocs(i have a GROUP) that will take several hours to talk about too. If asked, i would happily speak about them more! :)

OHHH I ABSOLUTELY ADORE FULIN...... im adopting him too. son boy. i have an undeveloped oc that ended up becoming yingxing's apprentice & absolutely hated dan feng the whole time JFDKFDS

and MAN POOR FUROR........ but ohhhh the stubby crystal horns are so cool!!! i have a vidyadhara OC that ends up having a one of her horns snapped off (during the shuhu attack on the luofu) and ive been drawing it with like. a bark like texture with the marastruck branches growing out of it :D

#ask a fool #oc hour!!!

Ok. I saw THE episode.

Whoa.

Best episode of the Season so far. Maybe one of the show’s overall best. What I loved:

- The way Buck is once again amazing at calming down two scared children. I mean I‘m not a parent-y Person, but that man is so Dad-shaped it melts my heart.

- May and Athena undercover!!! I was LIVING for May‘s sarcastic addict performance. She clearly has her mom‘s investigation-genes. And I love that they are supporting Bobby in investigating his sponsor‘s death.

- I still hate the Buckley Parents but I do like that there is some kind of progress. Don‘t get me wrong I think cutting ties with bad parents is totally legit and I hope Maddie and Buck always Keep them at an arm‘s lenght. But I do like that there seems to be some kind of healing going on and I hope it will bring Maddie and Buck more peace of mind in the long run. (Bobby and Athena are still Buck‘s parents and the 118 is his found family, Zero doubts there.)

- Albert being back!!! Even though I wish he hadn‘t brought his dad. But maybe it will be good for Chim to finally tell his father how angry and hurt he really is.

- Buck‘s smile after his conversation with Maddie on a world where Daniel hadn‘t died. It was so short and yet had so many layers. Buck looks so content in this moment. As if, yes, life isn‘t perfect and his biological family is Even further from perfect, but he has Maddie and Chim and his niece and his 118 family and life is good anyway. Idk the smile did something to my heart.

- Mom-Hen. I just like her. And I hope Danny comes clean about his Dad soon and they can find a good patchwork solution that works for everyone and makes Danny feel happy, loved and protected.

- Hen saying That Karen Lobes surprises but the definitely does not. (Same, Hen. Same.)

- Athena worrying about Bobby. I just love those two so much.

- Buck offering to listen to Bobby and really actively being there for him. It is just the essence of Buck and I‘m so here for it.

- THE. CHILLI. CONVERSATION. I mean…it had me smirk with tears in my eyes. Peak Television. They are father and son, your honor. (And I prefer to put very dark chocolate in my Chilli instead of coacoa powder. But you do you, Bobby.)

- The way the pregnant Woman on the Uber was hilarious before the Crash. I love me some light-Heartedness in the darkness.

-And then: All the foreshadowing in the episode. Buck going up instead of Chimney. ‚Go get them, Cowboy‘. ‚What is that?‘ (A THUNDERSTORM, you adorable dumbass), THE SILENCE After Buck gets hit by lightning. Eddie struggling back to his feet. Buck dangling up there. The disbelief on everyone‘s faces. Eddie screaming Buck‘s name in growing desperation. ‚Come here, kid‘, Chimney forgetting Medical facts because this is Buck and Buck can‘t be in cardiac Arrest, ‚Eddie, You’re driving‘, Eddie’s desperate ‚Talk to me, Buck!‘ (IS THIS ANOTHER TOP GUN REFERENCE After ‚you can have my back anyday- or you know, you could have mine’? Is this a ‚Talk to me, Goose‘?!? I HAVE QUESTIONS), the immense shooting / Eddie trapped Below the ground Parallels!!!

- Stellar Performances all around!

This Episode has WRECKED me. My Heart hurt so much for Buck and for all of them. I am seriously worried for Bobby. It‘s going to be so difficult for him. A Part of me hopes That there might be some Buddie-Realization on the Horizon for both Eddie and Buck. (I love them both as bffs and as a ship and I think both interpretations are equally valid even though I would prefer a Potential bisexual slowburn on a popular Show actually becoming canon).

I am excited to See how Eddie will Deal with his emotions. How the Team, Maddie and Athena will Support each other through this. Who will sit watch at Buck‘s side. What Cheistopher will say. If Eddie will Talk to Coma-Buck and be angry with hin for Not Waking up. What Coma-Buck will experience. It‘s…the storyline is so sad and so intriguing and has so many layers. 911 did it again and I love it.

I‘m so glad Fox already gave us some pictures of Oliver still being on Set. I would have seriously worried if they are going to kill Buck otherwise.

#911 spoilers #911 speculation #911 on fox #911onfox #911 tv show #911 season 6 episode 10 #911 season 6 #911 s6b #911 s6e10 #evan buckley #evan buck buckely #buddie #I LOVE THOSE CHARACTERS ALL SO MICH LORD HELP ME

Alone (2.11 Rewrite)

Pairing: Dr. Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Dr. Claire Evans) featuring Rafael Aviero and mentions of Raf x MC

Summary: A rewrite of 2.11

Word Count: 4,291

(Moodboard created by me)

This whole day had been bad from the start. With what Claire found out was going on between the senator and his assistant Travis. To getting sprayed in with an unknown substance, along with some other people at the hospital who meant a lot to Claire or to people she is close with. Then watching the person she loved the most at the hospital look at her worried. Worried that she might die or that they wasted time because of him being an attending and her being a resident.

Watching Bobby die right in front of her, watching Danny and Travis get wheeled out of the room to different places, watching one of her best friends getting sicker than her and watching him miss his trip to Brazil because he felt the need to protect her was hard and scary. She felt that it was all her fault. Travis even said that it wouldn’t have been this way if she hadn’t stepped in, which she knew he was right.

It was her fault that Bobby’s kids would grow up without their father. It was her fault that Danny’s parents would lose their son. It was her fault that Sienna wouldn’t be able to get together with Danny. It was her fault for letting Rafael jump in and save her. It was her fault that Ethan and the other people in the hospital had to hear and witness this.

Even though Rafael was physically in the room with Claire, she still felt alone and trapped in a bubble. He was progressing at a faster pace than she was and they still had no clue as to what they were sprayed with and if there is even anything that could help them get rid of it. When the rest of the diagnostics team would come in and check up on them, it felt weird and unsettling.

While Claire’s friends and roommates were safely outside the sealed door. It felt that they were millions of miles away and that she was just dreaming that they were there. Ethan tried not to show any emotion around her in fear that it would hurt her to show sadness or worry, but she felt that having a stone expression was way worse. Claire felt that she was in a terrible nightmare that she would never be able to get out of. One that was bad for everyone.

While her friends tried to reassure her, Claire was still worried that they may never figure out what was wrong, especially since Sienna said that Travis had no idea what was in the can and there was no trace of it anywhere, except for inside their bodies. Even when the team came in to give them stuff to alleviate their symptoms, it didn’t help Claire with her worry. Knowing that the FBI was not going to give out any information to the team to help them, Claire kept falling down a worried path in her mind. They only had hours at most to find a cure and with the FBI claiming national security, a petition for them to release it would take weeks.

Claire’s worry only increased as time went on with Bobby already dead, Danny almost on his way there and both her and Rafael’s health declining quickly. With everyone so far, they have nine doctors working on figuring out what the toxin is. They have to cast a wide net of possibilities, which makes the process even longer. Especially since between the FBI and them, they have only ruled out a few different things, including bacterias and viruses.

It has been many hours later and still no idea as to what it could be, even with testing as many vials of blood as both Claire and Rafael could spare. The heart monitor is the only thing Claire was able to use to be able to focus as her vision blurred and the room felt like it was spinning. Rafael letting out a soft moan let Claire know that he was still alive, breathing, and fighting helped to calm her nerves a little bit.

“..Claire? You look terrible right now.”

With his voice barely above a whisper, she was worried about him and how he was feeling. It was hard to see one of her best friends sick with an unknown problem right next to her and knowing that she couldn’t do anything to help it. Especially because at one point, she thought that her and Rafeal could’ve been something more, but they both felt love with someone else.

“Um… rude. I don’t want to hear that when I’m trapped in a room with an unknown fatal disease and surrounded by plastic. It may be honest but it’s not for me right now.” Claire said jokingly.

“Sorry. You look beautiful as always.” It made Claire blush and smile a little bit.

“That’s much better.”

Watching Rafeal get worse and worse is one of the hardest things Claire has experienced so far. As new symptoms came up, her fear increased, mostly for Rafael. Hearing Rafael say that letting the team know about his new symptoms may be able to save her only broke her heart. It felt that her friend was giving up and that he knew that he wasn’t going to make it.

“This is important. I may not make it, but if you track my symptoms, it may-”

“Raf, stop it! Please? I’m mad at you for throwing yourself in front of a hypothetical bullet and risking yourself.”

“But you were in trouble! If I hadn’t done that, I may have forgiven myself.”

“Raf, If you hadn’t done that, I would be in the same position I am in now and you would be safe. You would most likely be on a plane to Brazil right about now.” Claire said while tears streamed down her cheeks.

Raf then gently grabbed her hand and squeezed it as he used his other hand to gently try to wipe her tears.

“You know I care about you a lot, but I have to ask why you keep putting yourself in danger?”

“I honestly don’t know. It feels like it’s my only option when it happens, but now I can’t stop thinking about my vovo.”

His hand slowly starts to lose grip on Claire’s and her tears come back harder than they did before. She encloses his hand with both of hers as she is upset about the current situation.

“Raf, Please stay with me? Please?”

“I think you need to page the team Claire.” Rafael’s voice breaks a few times as he speaks, his heart rate slows down and his breathing shallows.

“I’m so sorry Claire, but this might be the way this ends for me. I’m sorry I couldn’t save you.”

Claire’s blue eyes meet his brown ones. She knows that they are as soft and warm as they were when they met for the first time. She then gently strokes his hair out of his face, feeling the cold sweat in it. Her tears become larger, almost to the point where she can’t see him through them.

“Please Raf. Don’t give up. I know you’ll make it through this. We both will.”

Claire watches him smile for a second and then watches as his eyes flutter closed and how his hand drops away from hers. She then pages the team and both Ethan and June quickly respond and hurry into the room.

“I was hoping the treatment would help buy us some more time.” Ethan said.

“We don’t know that it didn’t already.”

Ethan nods to Claire and both his and June’s eyes fill with sympathy for her.

“We’ll move him to the support suite. We still have a chance to fix this in time to help him, to help the both of you.”

Claire watches as Ethan stares at Rafael. She sees waves of emotion wash over his face. She doesn’t want to ask him but she decides to anyway.

“How is Danny doing?”

Ethan sighs before speaking. “We lost him. He asked to be autopsied before he died so he could help the two of you.”

Claire squeezes her eyes shut tightly. It causes the pressure in her head to be so great that it feels like it wants to explode at any second. She then takes a deep breath and opens her eyes to turn towards Ethan, who is busy prepping to transfer Rafael to the support suite. She then mentioned all of Raf’s symptoms to Ethan and June, which caused June to speak up about something she saw a while ago.

“Come on. We need to follow up on what you’re thinking. If we move fast enough we can help.” Ethan says as he looks down at Rafael.

“Stay strong for us Claire. We’ll come back with more info soon.” June said as she secured the barrier over the bed Rafeal was in.

Both Ethan and June carefully wheeled him out through the decontamination room and down the hallway, leaving Claire fully alone to her own thoughts. She was hoping it wasn’t too late for Rafael. She was also starting to panic. She didn’t tell anyone except for Sienna about her fear of the dark and her fear about rooms closing in on her. It was late at night and she was in a room on the side of the hospital that did not have much light, so it was very dark outside which creeped her out, and the eerie feeling inside of her didn’t help.

Claire started to curl up into a ball on her bed once they left the room. It had been a long while since Claire was in a hospital as a patient, but that was also back home in New York and one of her parents was with her, especially when the doctor or a nurse wasn’t in the room. But now she was in a city that was 6 hours away from home, with an unknown toxin in her body, and no clue if her parents were even outside the door. When Claire would get scared of the dark and feel that the room was closing in on her, her mother would come and try to help her through it.

She felt so alone and isolated in the room. With minimal lighting and plastic surrounding her, she was scared. It was hard to sit on the bed with having a fear that the team may not have an idea of what it could be and that both her and Rafael might die. Claire let more tears fall freely down her face. She hoped that everything will be okay and that they have a shot of staying alive.

She eventually calmed her crying down a bit to straighten her legs and wipe her tears. It quickly built up again as she started to think that all of this is her fault and her fault only. Claire feels that she is the only one to blame for Bobby and Danny’s deaths. Both of their families would blame and hate her for the rest of their lives. That is what her mind was telling her in the somewhat empty and quiet room. She tried to lay down and close her eyes to try and get rid of these thoughts but it didn’t work.

When Claire’s friends and fellow members of the diagnostics team arrived at the window of the room, they looked very upset. It caused Claire to worry a lot because it could have been about what she and Rafael had, or it could’ve been that Raf had died. She was thinking of all the worst possible things to explain to herself as to why they had those looks on their faces.

“So.. How doomed am I?”

“‘Doomed’ isn't the right word I would use Claire. Especially since the hunch I had was right.” June said.

“It is the right word. I can see it written all over your faces. Please just tell me what I have.”

“You have a maitotoxin. It’s one that I’ve never seen before. It was also still active in Danny’s body postmortem, including on his skin. It’s still dangerous.” Ethan spoke up. His expression was flat and kind of hard for Claire to read.

Claire begins to recognize the name and begins looking in her mind for any more information she can find on it.

“Maitotoxin. It’s taken from fish parasites, and there’s no cure for it either. So let it kill me.”

“You're okay with this?” Jackie said.

“What other choice do I have?”

Ethan then looks at Claire with sad eyes. He tries to stay strong for her as she looks at him through the window.

“Now is not the time to give up Evans. With Rafael stepping in, you didn’t get as much of the toxin, so the symptoms you have aren’t as advanced.”

“But there is no cure for it.”

“Yet. We are going to work around the clock to create one.”

“And you won’t be alone.”

Claire turned as much as she could to see Aurora, Tobias, and other doctors from Mass Kenmore approaching the door. She knew that Tobias has a heart somewhat. She also guessed that Aurora was a part of getting them here, which she is very grateful for, even after their argument.

“Tobias?”

“Save it Ramsey. This is bigger than any petty thing that is going on between us or the hospitals. We’re not letting Claire die on our watch.”

“Aurora… I can’t tell you how grateful I am for this.” Claire said as she turned to Aurora.

“So don’t. You can thank me by staying alive.”

“I will do my best.”

“We’ve set up a basecamp at the laboratory. We can lead you there now.” June says as she gets everyone back to focus.

“Count me in on this. Chemistry was my best subject at school.” Elijah said as he and many of the other doctors made it down to the lab.

A few other people still remained at the door including Sienna, who has fierceness in her eyes while many tears make their way down her cheeks. Claire felt bad for saying that she wanted to give up in front of Sienna, especially since one of the people she loved most at the hospital died.

“Don’t you dare die on us Claire. Don’t get into a coma either. Just stay alive. Do you hear me?”

“I hear you Sienna.”

Sienna slowly backs up and Bryce appears at the door next.

“Hey.” Bryce says.

“Hi.”

“Just don’t give up. Please.”

Bryce then backs up and Jackie appears at the door. Claire can see her eyes water as she approaches.

“We don’t need you leaving us. Not yet.”

She then backs up and the three of them wave to Claire before heading to the laboratory. She turns and notices that Ethan is still standing in the hallway. He then slowly approaches the door, similar to how her friends did and gently places his hand on the glass. Claire then held her hand up and placed it on the other side of the glass, directly across from Ethan’s. Her blue eyes then looked straight into his blue ones.

“Are you okay Ethan?”

“No. But you don’t need to hear about it. You need rest. Have you tried to get any sleep?”

“I tried. But with the thought of Bobby and Danny being gone already and wondering if Rafael is alright, or whether he’s already…” Claire couldn’t finish her sentence and it was silent for a few seconds.

“Do you want me to stay with you for a while?”

“They won’t need you?”

“Tobias knows what he is doing. Considering what we know about maitotoxins, Elijah was right about this being a chemistry problem now. This is where I can do my best, as long as you want me here with you.”

Claire thought about it for a second. Maybe having Ethan there to help comfort her would help this feeling of loneliness she has.

“If this is my last night alive. I want to spend it with you here.”

“I would feel the same exact way about you if I was in your position.”

“Really?”

“Yes really Evans.”

Ethan then gently lowered his hand from the glass to go put on one of the suits before entering the room. She then dropped her hand to let Ethan take it and lead her over to the bed. Claire slowly got into the bed and he helped to cover her with a blanket before grabbing a chair and pulling it up right next to her bed.

“Now, I need you to lie down for me. I know it might sound weird but you need to try to relax and think of something happy.”

“I’ve been trying but I feel like there has been so many things that I have done wrong. Like I should have traveled more, I should have hung out with my friends more, I should’ve loved more.”

“What do you mean?”

“I mean that I have spent most of my life focusing on school and work. I guarded my heart because I was worried that it would break because of the way I do things. I didn’t travel because I wanted to be ahead of my work and feared that if I stopped doing that then I would fall behind. I was scared to meet friends because I wasn’t sure how long I would be in the area.”

Ethan then realized what she meant. He had done the same thing to himself when he was her age. It was mostly because of his family and his pettiness with Tobias but he saw many similarities between what Claire described of herself and what Ethan remembers from his 20’s. Two pairs of blue eyes met each other as they both wished there wasn’t the barrier of plastic between them.

“Since we are sharing our regrets, can I share one of mine?”

“Go ahead.”

Ethan then brought one of his gloved hands to hers and gently wrapped it around hers.

“I wish that I hadn’t pushed you away. I wasted so much time because I kept trying to get away from you. I should have held you every day and told you how much I… How much I care about you.”

“Ethan. You know you mean a lot to me. When we first met, I felt so intimidated by you. Now I feel that I can trust you with anything, no matter what it is about. You are a part of making the doctor who I am today.”

Ethan let out a light sigh as he looked at Claire. “I see a lot of myself in you. I mean it’s not exactly like looking into a mirror, but there are many things. I’m sure you will far surpass me someday.”

Claire gently touches Ethan’s arm as her smile faded. Her smile faded because her skin was only able to touch the plastic suit.

“What’s wrong Claire?”

“It just hit me that Rafael might be the last real human contact I ever get to have that is not through plastic.”

Ethan sighs again and gently joins her on the bed.

“Claire. Look at me please.” he then gently turns to look at his eyes.

“You can’t think like that. You can’t give up.”

“Ok. But I can kiss you… sort of.”

Claire then gently took his gloved hand in hers and gave it a small kiss. He then turned it over and cupped her chin gently. Ethan then used his thumb to stroke her cheek through the suit.

“Claire..”

“Can I speak for a moment?” Claire said which caused Ethan to nod.

“Even though there have been other people in this room. I have never felt more alone in my life today than any other day. It’s also not just about having the toxin either. I felt so alone even when Raf was in here with me. Then when you guys came in and wheeled him away… I felt so scared and alone with my thoughts. I kept thinking how all of this is my fault.”

Ethan looked very upset. “Claire. None of this is your fault. The blame is all put onto Travis.”

“But it is my fault. If I hadn’t stepped in Bobby would be at home with his family, Sienna and Danny would probably be talking each other’s ears off, and Rafael would be in Brazil.”

Ethan noticed more tears start to form and fall from Claire’s eyes. This caused him to wrap his arms around her and gently try to wipe the tears from her face.

“If you hadn't stopped this, Travis and Danny may still have been in the same situation along with the senator. The toxin would’ve also spread through the whole hospital, which would’ve hurt more people. While Rafael didn’t have to step in, he did it to help you. I don’t want you to continue to beat yourself up over this. I know I can’t control what happens but I want to be there and help you through all of this. I want you to tell me if there is anything wrong so I can try and help fix it.”

Neither of them said anything else as they laid there together. Claire’s eyes locked with Ethan’s as she felt sleep trying to slowly approach her. She then snuggled into his arms more.

“I am glad that I at least got to hold you one last time…”

“Claire.. I promise this won’t be the last time.”

Claire slowly fell asleep in Ethan’s arms. Once Ethan felt that she was definitely asleep. Ethan let the tears flow down his face freely. He was scared for her and not just because of the toxin.

When Claire woke up the next morning in pain, Ethan was in the chair next to the bed and immediately moved closer to help her.

“It’s okay Claire. You’ll be okay.”

Not much time passed before the team of doctors appeared outside the door.

“Claire! We did it!” Aurora said.

Claire was only able to see their outlines because her vision was so blurry. It made it hard for her to distinguish everyone.

“What?”

“You have an antidote?” Ethan said.

June and Baz then came into the room. They were coming in and out of focus as they entered. They were exhausted but they also looked hopeful.

“We’ve managed to create a compound that will bind to the maitotoxin and prevent it from attaching to your plasma membranes. It should keep this from progressing further while your body flushes out the rest of the toxin. We didn’t have much time to test it.” Tobias stated.

“What about Raf? He is more sick than I am.”

“We already gave it to him but so far there has been no change. We might be too late for him.” Sienna said.

“But he hasn’t gotten any worse so it has to mean something!” Elijah added.

“Either way this looks like it is the best shot I have.”

“Would you like to do the honors, Ethan?” June says as she gently holds out the injection.

“I would.”

He gently takes it from June as Claire presents her arm to him, barely being able to hold it up. Baz then comes over to help her and hold her arm as Ethan gets the injection ready.

“Ready?”

“It’s now or never. Let’s do this.”

Ethan then smoothly inserts the needle into Claire’s arm and dispenses the serum.

“And now we wait and hope.”

After everyone including Ethan left the room, Claire started to feel a little bit better about the situation. She still felt that it was her fault, but she didn’t show it when June would come in every hour to test her blood or when her friends came up to the window.

Everything slowly started to feel normal again. Her blood pressure stabilized, the nausea receded, and the world came back into a sharper focus. Then Ethan waltzed through the doors without a suit on and a smile on his face.

“Get up.”

“You mean it worked?”

“It did. There’s no trace of it left in your bloodstream, Even if there are still traces of it in the room, we know that we can-”

Claire then ran out of bed and wrapped his arms around him in a big and tight hug.

“What you’re saying is that I’m free to do this?”

“Yes. I am also saying that I am free to do this.”

Ethan then gently took Claire’s chin into his hand and pulled her in for a kiss. He didn’t even bother looking to see if anyone was watching and Claire didn’t stop him. She then felt a tear fall down her face, but she didn’t know who it belonged to. Eventually Claire was able to come out of the room.

Once the elevator opened for her friends. She saw their pale faces that needed very many hours of sleep. They all still greeted her with enough smiles and love to take her breath away.

“We’re so excited to see you outside of the bubble.”

“I agree.”

“We were so scared for you.”

“So was I. Last night was the worst night of my life.”

“Losing Bobby and Danny too.”

“And Raf…”

“Oh stop it. Raf’s in a coma, he’s not dead.”

All of her friends surrounded her and made her very happy. The love they were showing her was more than enough and it made her feel a lot better about this situation. It also made her realize that she had people to lean on and talk to about this. Especially Ethan.

A/n: I decided to stop it there for right now because I don't want to make it too long. But if someone does want me to continue this I can make a part 2/rewrite of 2.12

The Protective Town

Another Danny Phantom idea where everyone in the town separately, in groups, or somehow else collectively all figure out that Phantom is Danny Fenton. Of course they freak out, this is a kid. A kid who half-died without any of them knowing. A kid many had seen grow up along with his sister. Neighbors had often been worried for the Fenton children, they thought Jack and Maddie, thought the two loved their kids, were negligent, they watched poor Jazz mature well beyond her age because she had to. There were many times people wanted to report the Fentons for child abuse but they never did, maybe it was because they knew Jack and Maddie did love their children, maybe it was just easier not to start shit with the people who created all kinds of dangerous looking weapons and equipment. But they never thought....they never believed they would be so negligent, so...so caught up in their work that they would endanger their children with said work. They never thought they would be responsible for one of their children half-dying and becoming half of what they hunted. And oh God, they hunted their son like rabid animals....they...they had said many times how they wanted to capture Phantom to experiment on him.

The town slowly figures out that each other know too and it's then that they all decide they will protect Danny from his parents as Phantom whatever it takes. Some park purposefully bad to block them in to parking spaces, others will drive slower when they see the GAV on the streets, some will just plainly block them away from a ghost attack. They would make a human wall. The teachers are heartbroken but none more than Lance because they all gave Danny a hard time but they all make sure to work with him a lot more since they know how much of his time goes to protecting them. The students will make excuses for him to his parents and even the GIW if they have to. Dash still picks on him but it's more to make Danny think nothing has changed, he toned it down a lot and just said it was because Phantom was a role model and he wanted to do better. Dash is one of the first people to start the human wall. Valerie is pissed, confused, sad, you name it, but she feels just as protective as everyone else, maybe more and Danny definitely notices when Red Huntress stops going after him and she even starts to help out in fights.

The town realize that Sam, Tucker, and Jazz help Danny out and they are immediately added to the Must Protect list. Then they all remember Dani and shit that's another but they don't care, they're going to do whatever they can to keep those kids safe even if that means taking the Jazz and Danny from their parents because their house obviously is not a safe or healthy environment for either teen.

Then the town kind of sort of maybe adopts some of the ghosts Danny had fought because dammit some of them had been kids too and they don't like the way the Fentons look at them and hunt them either. So the town is now protective of them too and maybe the ghosts think humans may not be all bad.

Amity just becomes fiercely protective over their kids, ghost, human, or halfa.

the end is where we start from

What we call the beginning is often the end / And to make an end is to make a beginning / The end is where we start from. ~ T.S. Elliot, Little Giddings

Danny was running, he didn’t know where to all he knew was who he was running from. He didn’t know if his parents were even coming after him, guns blazing and mouths sneering but he didn’t dare turn around to look. Maybe they weren’t even going to bother chasing him, maybe they were just happy the ghostly scum was out of their house.

He saw the entrance to Amity’s deepest woods and he darted for it. It was dark and thick and easy to lose yourself in so people usually thought twice before they entered. But people like Danny had little else to lose. The sting of branches swiping at him before he could turn intangible, giant, gnarling roots tripping him up before he could float over him. But he didn’t dare slow down because that would mean acknowledging what had happened.

Another missed curfew, another argument where he and his parents talked about but around each other. Another ghost showing up just as he got dressed for bed, another transformation to take care of it before he could get some sleep. Only the same old script flipped on itself when Mom opened the door, bringing in some tea as an apology for her harsh words just into time to see her son become a ghost. Her gun was drawn before the cup hit the floor and shattered, along with Danny’s heart.

Deep in the thicket of the woods, his human lungs burned and his living muscles ached but he couldn’t turn into Phantom now. Not when it was the stupid ghost’s fault he wasn’t welcome in his own home anymore.

‘What are you doing with my son, ghost?’

‘Mom, please it’s Danny I can explain, please would you just listen?’

‘You can’t be alive and dead at the same time! It’s impossible!’ Oh god my baby died and I didn’t even notice’

‘Mom, Dad, listen to Danny, he’s telling the truth. This is why he never-’

‘Jasmine, you’ve been deceived that’s what ghosts do! That’s what Phantom in particular is known for!’

“Jazzy, Danno, I want to believe you, but it’s a lot to take in. Let us run some tests to make sure.’

‘Danny! Danny wait! Come back!’

Eventually his human body ran out of steam, adrenaline and desperation can only take a person so far. His speeding gait slowed to a lopping jog before settling into a quiet, miserable walk. He squeezed his eyes shut and dared to look over his shoulder but, of course, no one was there. It was just him, the darkness and his own woes.

“What am I going to do now?” He asked quietly, weakly as he fought back panicked tears. All he could see was his mother’s angry, grieving face. His father’s confusion as he tried to make sense of it all while trying to keep the peace. Jazz’s frustration and futile attempts to shield Danny from the worst of the shouting.

He had nothing on his person, why would he? He’d been about ready to go to bed when his whole world came crashing down. His worn Star Wars t-shirt and sweatpants offered little protection from the gloomy October weather but Danny’s ice core more than protected him from the chill. He welcomed it if anything, it matched the ice growing in his heart. No money to escape with, no phone to call for help, no tools to contain any ghosts he battled. He hadn’t even had dinner last night, too busy fighting ghosts. For the first time, Danny was well and truly on his own. Not even dying had seemed so scary.

“I can handle this,” Danny said with false calm. It was pitch dark around him but a little ectoplasmic light brightened the area up. “I’ll just stay here for the night and then I’ll check in tomorrow. If things are still bad, I’ll grab my gear and go.” Where he’d go was a whole other question but that wasn’t important right now. He was still too raw to think about what he’d do if he actually had to abandon his human life. All he could focus on right now was the hurt pulsing through him.

He wandered around in the dark for a little while longer, looking for a suitable place to set up camp for the night. Eventually, he came upon a set of twisting trees that was perfect for his purposes. Lightening his weight, he climbed up halfway and made a little ice tent in the branches. It was lightweight but thick, covering him up and serving as a shield between him and the rest of the world. In his own little ice palace, no one else could hurt him.

“There we go, home sweet home,” Danny mumbled as he crawled inside with a dull thump. He’d left a little skylight open, so he could look up at the stars. If he didn’t think too hard about it, he could imagine he was out camping with his dad or stargazing with his friends. “No, stop it. You’re only making it worse,” he said quietly to himself as the annoying flush of sadness washed over him. He didn’t like to cry; it made him feel stupid and childish and exhausted. Jazz had lectured him about the cleansing release of neurochemicals and other junk but really he usually felt worse after crying.

“This is fine, everything is fine,” Danny sniffled, shuddering as he curled in on himself. The only cold that could hurt him was his own. It really wasn’t a great idea to use his that much of his ice in his human form, it chilled his body too much to be healthy. That, combined with his light clothes, the chilly night and that fact that he was laying on a solid block of ice, didn’t help matters. If Sam and Tucker could see him, they’d be shoving him in the shower to warm him up and plying him with food and blankets. Jazz and her dozen kind of herbal teas that help with mood or digestion or whatever would shove one or two into his hands and hover until he drank some. Their nagging was annoying but it was helpful and made him feel so loved. Love he wasn’t feeling out in the woods all by himself in the middle of the night.

“This is fine,” he repeated, more choked up this time and gave into his desire to cry. His chest hurt from the force of his sobs and eyes burned from the salty tears. He was flushed and cold and miserable but eventually, after wiping snot away from his nose and hiccupping quietly, he was ready to sleep. He was so worn out from all the hurting and the crying that he slipped from wakefulness as easy as going ghost.

“Child, what are you doing?” Danny groaned at the vaguely familiar voice. His ghost sense went off, reminding him once more how cold he was. He barely had it in him to shiver right now. “Ghost child, awaken and explain yourself.” Cold metal poked repeatedly into his side until Danny shoved the hand away, sitting up with a miserable glare.

“Go away, I’m not in the mood,” Danny grumbled, turning away from Skulker to try and go back to sleep. “I already feel bad enough, I don’t need you making it worse.”

“That does not explain why you are in a tree in the woods,” Skulker said slowly, still hung on stupid details. “The last I checked, the human Lair you stayed in was still standing. I stopped there to show you my latest weapon but you weren’t there, I traced your signature here.”

“Congrats, pass go and collect $200,” Danny sniped back quietly, not putting any heat into it. He didn’t have much to spare.

“Why are you out here, all alone?” Skulker frowned, “humans are susceptible to the elements, I presume you’re no exception given your current state. Just this once, I will stay the hunt to return you to your human Lair and we shall resume at a later-”

“No, I can’t go back,” Danny gasped fearfully, he curled in deeper on himself. “My parents, they know about me, about my powers. They didn’t take it well, I can’t- I don’t have anywhere else to go.”

“But those human children-”

“I’m not getting them involved in this, they’re already in too deep. Tucker’s still grounded from that incident with Desiree and if Sam’s parents caught me in her room at night I’d lose the other half of my miserable life,” Danny grumbled. “Just leave me alone or kill me and take my pelt. Either one, it doesn’t matter anymore.”

“I see,” Skulker hummed, “stay here, Child, I will return.” Skulker said before flying off.

“Great, can’t wait,” Danny murmured as he rearranged himself on his ice block. He still felt unbearably cold but it probably wasn’t enough to actually kill him. Probably. “Stupid ghosts, stupid powers, if I hadn’t walked into that stupid portal, I’d be be safe and warm in bed right now and only have to worry about passing pre-calc.” It felt like he’d barely fallen back asleep when he was forcibly awaken by something soft and heavy dropping on him.

He phased out of the tangle only to find a bunch of blankets and heavy winter coat that looked 2 sizes too big for him. “What the-”

“Wow you weren’t kidding, babe, he looks like a trainwreck,” he heard Ember’s gruff voice say. “Hey dummy, put on the stupid coat. I ain’t had nerve endings in a while but I’m getting cold just looking atcha.”

“You bring your girlfriend to harass me in the middle of the night with,” Danny eyed the pile with price tags still on them, “stolen merchandise.”

“Shut up, we’re crashing your pathetic little pity party so you don’t die before I can off you myself,” the rock star huffed. “If that coat isn’t on you in five seconds, I’m manhandling your skinny arms into it.”

“Jeez you’re worse than my sister,” Danny grumbled even as he pulled the coat on. It was big but fluffy, the extra layer instantly made him feel a bit better. “Happy?”

“Getting there. Techy, you brought the food or what?” Danny yelped as a large amount of food dropped in through his skylight. It was an interesting mix, a jumbo bag of peanuts, dijon mustard, a jar of pickled eggs, a couple bags of chips and a box of uncooked macaroni noodles. “Here, eat some human food.”

“What?” Danny questioned as Technus poked his head into the icy tree house.

“Oh nice place you got here child but it needs more lights and a flat screen and, oh, I can set you up with a killer stereo system over eek!” the technology ghost yelped as he was pulled back and Poindexter replaced him.

“Hey Danny, heard you were in a bit of a bind. Thanks to you, my Lair’s school is a better place now, bully free. You can cool your jets with me if you need to fly the coop.” Danny didn’t answer and instead opened one of the bags of chips, barbeque and ranch sweet.

“You can also stay on my island for however long you need to recover,” Skulker grumbled, like it pained him to say. “It’s no fun to hunt you when you’re so weak. I want to defeat you at your prime not at your lowest.”

“No, no, come to my lair! Everything is beeping and flashing all the time and I have a Minecraft room!” Technus interjected.

“I guess you could come to mine if you have to,” Ember huffed. “But aren’t you also buddy buddy with the Yetis bein’ an ice core and all? Or Queen Dora? Pretty much anyone will open their lairs to you with your stupid, beaten puppy dog eyes.”

“You guys, I don’t know what to say,” Danny said softly, taken aback by the show of kindness. He took in the blankets, the coat, the food, their offers. They didn’t understand, not really, but they were trying. It meant a lot, coming from his enemies. “Thank you.”

“Well, yeah, us nerds got to stick together,” Poindexter grinned.

“You’re human and an annoyance but your existence has given my afterlife quite a thrill. I’m not ready for the hunt to end quite yet,” Skulker announced.

“You’re our favorite nemesis,” Technus exclaimed, trying to squeeze his face back through the packed skylight. “We fight, we banter but we also support each other when we’re down! Whenever I’m feeling down, I come into the human world and our battles have me back up and running in no time!”

“Huh,” Danny said, looking down with a small smile. If his enemies could put aside their grudges and help him when he needed it then maybe... “Thanks again really but uh, I think I should go home, check in with my folks. Probably shouldn’t have run off like that but um, if it goes bad...”

“You’re part ghost,” Skulker said with a sharp nod. “The Zone is as much your home as it is ours. Really should get around to making a Lair one of these days. Only weak ghosts and parasites leech off of others.”

“You know the way back from here?” Ember asked. “Need an entourage?”

“Yeah I got it,” Danny answered, triggering his transformation. Poindexter squealed with delight as he phased out of his sad little ice cave. It looked cold and lonely which wasn’t what he needed right now. “And I’ll- it’ll be fine. I don’t think bringing a bunch of ghosts home with me will help my case.”

“Farewell, Child. May your spirits be higher on our next meeting. Having the support of ghost hunters will certainly add to the challenge of the hunt,” Skulker grinned. “I look forward to it.” He flew off and the others followed. Danny smiled, watching them go for a moment before flying in the opposite direction towards his house.

He was halfway home when the Fenton Assault Vehicle careened around a corner at an unsafe speed. Danny jumped as it went past, startled out of invisibility. He made eye contact with his parents before the RV skidded to a screeching halt and then hastily backed up. The window rolled down and he met the wide, teary eyes of his mom and dad.

“Uh funny running into you in a place like this,” he said shyly, looking down.

“Oh thank heavens, Danny where have you been? We’ve been worried sick!” His mother cried, jumping out of the RV and pulling him down into her arms. His father was on the phone, he heard Jazz’s name being mentioned, along with Sam and Tucker. “Baby, you’re freezing! Is this,” she paused, pulling back and delicately touching his wisp like hair. “Is that normal?”

“Sort of,” he said, leaning back into her touch. “It’s all kind of a long story. I shouldn’t have run off like that, I’m sorry.”

“No, you shouldn’t have but I don’t blame you,” Dad said, stepping out of the car and wrapping them both in a hug. “But Fenton men always make up for their goof ups. You were headed back home, right?”

“Yeah, home,” Danny sighed.

“Danny, I still don’t understand but I, we, love you and I’m sorry if we made you doubt that. We’ll work it out, sweetie, I promise. That’s what family does,” Mom said before ushering him and Dad into the car. “Now in you get, it’s too cold and too late for this and I do not want the neighbors complaining to the HOA again.”

Danny changed back in front of his parents for the second time that evening, this time intentionally. Their curiosity and happiness at seeing him overrode their earlier fear and confusion. He settled more comfortably into the backseat, warm and happy for the first time all evening.

“Danno, where’s you get the jacket?” Dad asked.

“My other family, don’t worry, I’ll explain it all tomorrow.”

#I'm sad and angry so have some sad and angry danno #the hurt helped with my bad feeling but the comfort soothed them #this was very theraputeic #danny phantom #hurt/comfort #*clapping hands* let danny be frenemies with the ghosts #also ive had the idea of danny running off and making a lil tree ice fort in my head for a while #seems like a good idea until you freeze your human butt off #jack and maddie are good peeps in my mind #they might not react well at first but they'll always come around for their kids #anyway here's wonderwall

Ok this is gonna be long. I’ve literally been slowly working on this for… too long. I’m just in a mood to have a long discussion about ships. I’ll be looking at canon and not, so bare with me. I don’t ship all of these personally. I’m mostly just picking the most popular ones. I chose to leave out a few that I just don’t want to talk about. I tried to keep this loosely chronological, but that quickly went to hell. None of this is meant to be hate towards anyone’s ship, just my personal opinions on each of them.

Canon:

Scott x Allison: True Classic

Scallison is so sweet as it is truly the epitome of young love. Romeo and Juliet, except Romeo is even more of an idiot and Juliet is a badass who dies for a cause. They’re moral and ethical codes are both highly valued by themselves, even if they don’t align with others very often. They loved with everything they had. They were beautiful. We’re they soulmates in the end, or just the first love who will always hold a special place in your heart? Who knows, but I’ll always love these immature kids who thought their love could change everything.

Stiles x Lydia: The Long Awaited

Stydia is as slow burn as you can get. Unfortunately their actual getting together was slightly rushed in my opinion. They didn’t have time to find their own as a couple because Stiles just wasn’t in the show enough at that point. I know the reasons behind it, but it did leave this couple at an awkward stage of official-but-not-shown. The idea that Stiles loved her as a kid, immature and infatuated, and he saw her for who she really was, will always be cute. Then they grew, changed, became friends, and found other people. Them finding each other later on, having real love that’s developed slowly, is a wonderful arc. Though, a part of me will always believe they should have pursued other story lines in the wake of Stiles’ absence from the plot. They’re finally together! …but we don’t get to see it.

Jackson x Lydia: The Image

Oh Jackson and Lydia. Honestly, I love them. Their connection at a time in their lives when they couldn’t open up to anyone else, just hits me right in the feels. I mean, god that HUG. You know the one. Always brings me to tears. I’m so sad their relationship was almost entirely depicted during Jackson’s kanima time when he couldn’t think nor truly act for himself. Those small moments of scared vulnerability when he wanted to protect her from himself… I’ll miss these two. They deserved to find other people and remain life-long friends. I loved their moment in the last episode. I wish they’d gotten to see each other grow. Also they had such bixbi solidarity vibes, and I’ll die on that hill.

Scott x Lydia: Leaders

Ok, I’m gonna be honest here. I ship it. The power couple they would have been?? Also them coming together after they lost Allison would have actually made sense. A part of me kinda wishes the writers had moved on from Stydia as a romantic relationship and leaned into them growing as friends and Stiles moving on from his childhood crush. Scott and Lydia actually would have had good chemistry. They were both very headstrong heroic types, but Lydia would have balanced Scott out well intellectually. They had the history, and I think it could had worked if they wrote it right. Plus, Scott and Lydia would have been a better endgame that Scalia.

Scott x Kira: New Beginnings

These two were adorable. Kira was a badass, don’t get me wrong, but she let herself be soft in a way Allison was always afraid to. This couple was truly Baby. Absolute dorks. I can definitely see the lasting quality between the two of them. They saw things very similarly, and had a ton in common. I do think Kira deserves more characterization outside of their relationship, like more of her friendship with Malia. Overall, her departure from the show will always be sad to me. It was bad writing. Scott was over her far too quickly.

Aiden x Lydia: Pretty People Herd

I honestly didn’t see much between these two other than mutual attraction. The best thing to come out of this relationship was Lydia’s line, “You’re not just a bad boy, Aiden. You’re a bad guy. And I don’t want to be with the bad guys.” Good character development moment.

Ethan x Danny: Step to Redemption

Danny really was the thing that made Ethan look outside of the pack for what he really wanted out of life. They had a few cute scenes. Gotta love Danny’s final remarks, “Dude, it’s Beacon Hills.”

Allison x Isaac: Unexpected Rebound

Ok, I like these two. Isaac could match Allison’s snark in a way Scott couldn’t. They both fought the progression of the relationship slightly. They didn’t expect to fall for each other. They were less willing to let someone in close. I’d love to have seen more… but unfortunately their time was limited. On a side note, sometimes their relationship did feel like ‘we both are in love with the same guy, let’s cope with each other’, but I find that completely valid. I’ll talk about Scallisaac later though.

Stiles x Malia: Anchors

Ok but, them <3 I love what they did for each other. Stiles was able to help Malia connect to her humanity and other people. He never tried to isolate her in their relationship and encouraged her growth. Malia offered Stiles the emotional support he never asked for. She defended him, fought for him, and loved him fiercely. Stiles needed that so much after season 3. I think they were a love that wasn’t meant to last, but the impact of it was forever. I wish we’d gotten to see a real end for them where they agreed that they needed to grow as individuals but would always still care.

Liam x Hayden: Three’s a Pattern

These two’s characterization stopped whenever they had storylines together. Their relationship was built on Scallison references. Hayden’s character could have been interesting, but they never really gave her a moment to shine. Liam has the worst plots when they revolved around her. Cute couple, poor writing.

Derek x Braeden: Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girl Boss

Derek deserves to be happy so much. Kate and Jennifer were just... jeez. Him and Braeden were cute and deserved more screen time. I think her intensity allowed for Derek to let go of control a bit more comfortably. Let Derek Be Soft. Anyway, love them.

Corey x Mason: Gotta Have That Rep TM

These two could have been cute if they were shown for more than two seconds at a time. I highkey forget Corey even existed all the time. Kinda just felt like a relationship to fill TW’s gay quota.

Jackson x Ethan: The Callback

Honestly? Loved them. Loved the chemistry. Loved the dynamic. Best twist. I know it was probably written in like that because Colton came out during his time away from the show, but it absolutely fit his character. Jethan is top tier.

Melissa x Chris: BAMF Parent Duo

Ok, so like, Melissa deserved this plot. She deserved someone to care about her. However... what the hell? Chris? In canon, his wife died like 2-ish years prior? His daughter died 1 year prior?? Is Chris really in a position to pursue a new relationship?? Also, like, Scott and Allison dated and loved each other up to her death. Kinda weird to have their parents hook up. I don’t hate it, but I don’t ship it…?

Scott x Malia: Lead up? What’s lead up?

These two came out of nowhere I stg. Like, 6B really tried to tell us this was something that had been slowly developing in the background? Also, I understand that they are their own people, adults, and completely in charge of their own romantic pursuits: but did Scott seriously never call Stiles? Like, Malia wasn’t just his first girlfriend. She was his first. Like, dude that’s your best friend?? Not even a head’s up? No, ‘hey would this bother you?’ Oof. Plus Malia was way too chaotic for Scott. She existed in gray morality that always prioritized her immediate circle, and Scott was a very black/white type of heroism. I just didn’t feel like they fit.

Non-Canon:

Scott x Stiles: Childhood Best Friends

Ya, sorry, I don’t ship Sciles at all. I get it. Like, I totally understand the ship, and I mean no judgment at all. I just see them as friends. I really value good male friendships in media because I feel like we don’t get enough, and I always liked these two.

Stiles x Derek: Enemies to Lovers. 100k. Angst. Hurt/Comfort.

God these two really are what fanfiction was made for. I could write a much longer discussion about Sterek, and I probably will eventually. I’ll try to keep this brief. These two weren’t always on the same side, but their approach was the same. They were very similar at their core. Plus, wow the chemistry. This should have been canon. Jeff’s a coward.

Allison x Lydia: Powerful.

This ship is so great. They really had a great dynamic, and a romantic plot would have easily fit the established narrative. Lydia’s confidence in herself and Allison’s confidence in her own abilities crossing over to each other because that’s what the other lacked? Iconic.

Danny x Jackson: He Gets Him

Danny really saw Jackson for everything he was and still cared. I wished we’d gotten to see more of them. I want more background with Jackson’s eventual coming out and his friendship with Danny. Like, they ended up dating the same guy. What did Ethan have to say about that??

Stiles x Jackson: Bastards

Ok these two had a super fun dynamic. The asshole-energy between them was, great. The snark was always so entertaining.

Melissa x Noah: Family

How were these two not endgame? Their sons were practically brothers already. They had amazing chemistry. The flirting? Not to mention, their timeline would have made way more sense. Missed opportunity.

Chris x Peter: The Opposite of Love is Indifference, Not Hate

Ok so like, this was definitely one of those ships that I had absolutely no knowledge of before I was pretty into the fandom. Like, this was not something I would have guessed just after watching the show. That being said; my god the chaos alone…

Scott x Isaac: The Disaster Duo

Okay ya I love these two. Two dumb asses who act like idiot puppies. Such a fun dynamic. Plus?? Chemistry??? Hellooo

Scott x Allison x Isaac: Three Heads Are Better Than One

This ship is definitely one of my personal favorites. I very rarely poly-ship. I just feel like most of them are just love triangles with an ‘easy solution’, when two of them have no real connection. That is so not the case here. I feel like all of them have such great chemistry with each other. They also have a great dynamic as a group. Season 3A was really just Scallisaac rights.

Stiles x Isaac: I Hate You, jk…Not Really

Ok I loved their banter, but I really just don’t see this ship. Idk, I don’t personally ship it. Would have loved to see their friendship develop more tho.

Erica x Allison: Duo that would stab you with a stiletto

I don’t ship it, but I do wish we’d seen them become friends. I feel like they had a very artificial ‘girls fighting over a boy’ dynamic? They could have been such a badass duo.

Stiles x Erica: Batman x Catwoman

Ok I’m not sure exactly how to express my feelings for these two so bare with me. OMG I love their dynamic so much, and they are sooo cute. Their energy? Amazing. Chemistry? Great. History? It’s there and has so much potential. 10/10. Love them. But, no, I don’t ship it lol. Just really love their friendship, but with the underlying history of crushes.

Boyd x Erica: Was This Not Canon?

How can anyone not love Berica? Ugh they are adorable. These two deserved so much better.

Boyd x Cora: Survivors

Honestly I don’t really see it? Like they definitely had a connection, but it never felt romantic. I really feel like they just had to lean on each other and bond to make it through captivity, and it just lasted.

Boyd x Erica x Cora: The Pack

I literally learned this was a ship a couple days ago. Similar feelings towards this as Bora, but with the added hesitancy of we never actually saw Erica and Cora interact.

Cora x Stiles: Slow Build Up

These two were clearing being lined up to be a thing before Cora ended up leaving. I can’t say I’m disappointed they never happened. Kinda felt like they just wanted to straight-code Sterek.

Cora x Lydia: Mean Lesbians

Not much interaction to actually go off of, but yes I 100% support. They have very different approaches to problems, which is fun. Very ‘opposites attract’.

Malia x Kira: “Maybe you could date the coyote?”

Another one of my favorites!! They really complimented each other. Also, how full circle would they have been? They were introduced in back-to-back episodes. Malia stalking her as a coyote? The line from Kira’s dad about dating it? It would have been so funny if that ended up happening.

Malia x Lydia: Beauty and the Beast, but make it wlw

These two were fun. I liked their friendship, but I don’t really ship it. Though, rip Stiles that would have been hilarious.

Parrish x Lydia: The Cop and The Minor

Must I say more? Like, Parrish’s character, so sweet and big rule follower, did not make sense for what went down with Lydia. I love Parrish, but the dynamic just felt off. It didn’t feel consistent with the rest of his characterization.

Parrish x Stiles: The Cop and The Minor, but gay?

Ok, same reasoning as above, but also they had absolutely no connection romantically.

Scott x Theo / Stiles x Theo: Sometimes The Villain is Hot

Ok I’ve put these together because I have the same opinion for both. I don’t ship it. Neither had any rebuilding of trust, and Theo really hurt both of them. I just don’t really think they work.

Mason x Liam: Sciles Puppy Pack Edition

Similar to my feeling about Sciles, I just don’t ship these two. They had a good friendship, from the little we saw of it.

Theo x Liam: Anchors 2: Electric Boogaloo

Another personal favorite! I really don’t even understand why this didn’t go canon?? The elevator scene was just, so intense. They helped each other grow in 6B, and I really loved their dynamic. They should have hooked up.

Honorable Mention?:

Parrish x Laura: What’s canon?

I’ve seen this in fanfic a lot, and I actually really like it lol. I thought I’d add it in here because I do love the creativity of fandoms.

Eddie Saville is divisive because he has been the unfaithful husband, the alcoholic, the addict. He ticks all the boxes for an untrustworthy guy.

And yet I feel sorry for him and empathize with him.

Remember that Eddie was a great artist in his youth, successful, but his setbacks made him sink. He will discover love with Katherine, to whom he will marry, and will be born a child, Theo.

Eddie missed Theo's first 3 months because he was in rehab. He did everything to tidy himself up, to save himself from his demons, and for 10 years, his addictions were just an extinct wolf. He was a stay-at-home dad, giving some music lessons. But he did everything for the good of his son.

Eddie was very present for his son, whom he loves more than anything.

But their marriage didn't work anymore, Katherine was still at her job and Eddie was feeling lonely, sad. He will find with Delilah, the wife of his best friend, an attentive ear. She was going through the same thing, an absent husband and estrangement. Eddie will be unfaithful to Katherine, he will even fall in love with Delilah

Is it okay to cheat on your wife? Absolutely not !!!

But can this be understood?

A little !

Whether it was on Delilah's or Eddie's side, the two felt alone and abandoned by their spouse. They comforted each other in the worst possible way.

For me, Eddie is not the bastard of the story, or the selfish. It is a concentrate of a complex personality, lost, in search of recognition and love.

He can't be the father for Delilah's child because she don't want that!! She made the decision to lie to everyone. And Eddie followed her into this lie

It's Eddie who proposes to divorce Katherine because there was no way out. It was Katherine who wanted to give a second chance.

He decided to be honest with Katherine about Delilah's pregnancy.

He lies to his son when his wife runs away after learning about the baby.

Eddie knows he hurt Katherine.

When she returns, he tells her that he will go and live elsewhere, while waiting for what they will decide about their future or not together.

But Katherine asks him to stay.

As they go, Katherine and Eddie grow closer and get back together.

Eddie feels left out about his baby with Delilah. He wants to be recognized as his father and it's normal that he wants to. Even though the consequences of this infidelity will be destructive for their respective families after the truth has come out.

Eddie lives with many regrets, towards Jon, towards his wife, his son.

But also to the children of Jon and Delilah, Danny and Sophie.

Then his sister comes back into her life. This return will have a destructive effect on Eddie as an old drama comes to the surface. He believes he was responsible for the murder of one of his former girlfriends when he was still a teenager.

Alex's sister and father, the victim, puts all the blame on Eddie.

Which, psychologically hard for him to take because he does not remember that night.

When he should have joined his wife and son, he took refuge in a bar, a glass in his hand, and finally, he will go away without drinking it, called his wife, apologizing, that he will tell everything, and love her

And unfortunately, he will get knocked down. He almost died. He finds himself in a wheelchair.

After a month of hospitalization, he returned home with his family.

But her life is different, difficult, having to live with a martyred, bruised body.

Eddie was dependent on others, and could no longer do activities with his son.

No longer being the husband and father that he was. And it was killing him inside.

But he accepted as best he could that what happened to him was deserved in view of his mistakes and the harm he may have caused.

At the beginning, he will refuse to take strong medication, quickly knowing that he is dependent.

But, he learns that he had nothing to do with Alex's accident. And having to endure this guilt he had put on was unbearable to him. He then took medication to endure the physical and psychological pain.

But recovered later, flushed the drugs down the toilet.

And the covid crisis happened there. His undercover sessions were canceled. The only thing that could ease his physical pain. And he wanted so badly to be there for Theo's show, he had never missed it.

And to endure the pain, he steals the medicines from Gina and Rome, and from that day on, it was impossible for him to do without them. To endure the pain, he had no other solution. He can't find a another way.

He became addicted to drugs, and like any addict, he sought by any means to obtain it.

Only Rome understood that Eddie had to dive again, he decided with Garry to confront him. And Eddie confessed everything, including his wife and son.

He decided on his own to go for a cure. He understood the harm he could cause his family because of his weaknesses.

He felt that his wife had moved away, even before he plunged back into drugs.

Katherine tended to take refuge in her work because life with Eddie, with his disability was difficult for her at first.

She already had her head elsewhere, felt better with someone else.

And the fact that Eddie was in the cure, it was for her the possibility of resenting him and deciding to leave him.

Katherine wants a divorce and Eddie doesn't object.

Only Theo's custody is a problem.

Katherine doesn't want Eddie to keep him alone as she has no confidence in him due to his addiction, his multiple mistakes and lies.

He agreed to have Garry as a witness when he kept Theo to see him as much as possible.

Eddie has always been a loving, present father.

As he says himself, it was he who took care of him while Katherine worked until very late, making her meals, her costumes for school, homework.

He spent a day with his daughter, after not having seen her for 4 months. And Delilah announces to him that she wants to go to France with Charlie and her children.

Eddie is already afraid of not having shared custody of Theo, now his 2nd child will be on another continent. This is impossible for Eddie to imagine.

Theo will burn himself under Katherine's watch, Eddie's lawyer wanted to use this incident against her, only to show that Theo was not safer with his mother.

But Eddie doesn't want to use that against her, and doesn't want to tear up with Katherine like that.

He decided on a compromise to Katherine: Shared custody, and the obligation for him to be tested every week to prove that he is sober of all substances. And that if he fails, she would have sole custody of Theo.

It's funny that as a lawyer, she had not studied this option.

It's a fair deal that Eddie offers. His son loves him more than anything, and it would be heartbreaking if Theo couldn't see his father.

I love the Eddie and Theo relationship, for me it is the most beautiful parental relationship in this series.

Eddie isn't perfect, far from it, but he's a million little things that he does what he is. Not the worst, not the best, just a man with his flaws, his weaknesses, his mistakes, his regrets, his sorrows, his pains.

#a million little things #eddie saville #david giuntoli #Theo saville #Katherine Saville

danny phantom episode 4-7 Thoughts: (under a readmore because, these got kinda long!)

-the outfit danny had to buy for dash's party. CLASSIC 2000S i cannot stop laughing. And also showing up to the party and everyone is dressed like the trio is hilarious. and further proof that everyone looks good dressed goth.

-dash has a closet full of cute lil bear plushies?? LOVE that. adorable. also his response to danny trashing his room fighting a ghost was SO valid if somone BROKE MY BED IN HALF ID BE PISSED TOO.

-technus being like 'oh smart, u should be a tutor!' then later being like 'forget tutor, be a teacher!' :) supportive king <3 I also really like his upgraded suit/design. AND SPOCK CAMEO??? HELLO??

-the music in this show is super. its so funky. I looked it up and the guy who does it, guy moon (awesome name) also did music for other cartoons like fairly odd parents, barnyard, chalkzone, billy & mandy, AND some actual movies like FIGHT CLUB??? the whiplash I got from reading that)

-sam being rich explains a lot about her, actually.

-I know the moral of the episode was supposed to be 'dont ditch your friends for popular people/spend a lot of money on clothes that arent You to Fit In'. but tbh. it wouldve been easy for danny to have been like 'well, okay, ill come but only if my friends can!' but I get. that hes 14. so. not a lot to say there.

-BOX GHOST IS BACK!!!!! also, danny sitting up and wearing the dress/wig/makeup. umm thats how I dress everyday LMFAO. unironically me. (hate the jokes that boil down to 'haha funney man in dress' tho. but this is a look)

-jazz being protective of her brother once again being like NOOO YOU GUYS BETTER NOT STAKE OUT HIS (actually haunted) LOCKER!! shes aware of how people perceive him and she wants to help :( which is also probably why she told dash to invite him to that party even tho she had no interest in going!! she wants to help him out :(

-gotta say im with tucker on the whole 'should danny use his powers to get back at bullies' debate. 100% yes. let him teach kids to fight back. making dash throw his food at paulina out of the blue? no. but when hes actually about to pick on someone? yeah! for self defense? YEAH! if dash and his friends just threw food at him, I think rather than. idk doing sneaky shit with frogs he couldve just threw it back and not pulled punches if they tried to fight. I kNOOWWW its a kids show so they are like 'if u fight back ur just as bad!! violence bad!!' but. theyre HIS POWERS. WHO CARES.

-like my only gripe is that dash really isnt LEARNING ANYTHING WHEN DANNY GETS BACK AT HIM IN THE MOST PETTY INDIRECT WAYS. whatever they had to add a bully psa episode I guess. I hate it and I hate the way cartoons usually handle it because these methods simply Do Not Work. 'aND YouRE USinG YOur poWErs FOR EVill???!' this is Not Evil. even when poindexter takes dannys body, theyre only being 'nice' bc hes stealing soda for them!! bitches deserve what they get (nothing too brutal bc theyre high schoolers but damn, if they pick on danny he doesnt need to be the 'bigger person' he needs to start biting people)

-SAM TRYING TO SMUGGLE FROGS OUT OF THE BIO LAB?? girl in middle school when we had to dissect frogs we could opt out, also, they came to us already dead and preserved...

-sidney's lingo and the fact hes in black and white is sending me. also, danny is a ghost celebrity apparently for being a halfa?? ok. thats interesting to know

-the DENTIST BEING EXCITED ABOUT THE COTTON CANDY FLOOD IS THE FUNNIEST THING SO FAR.

-I LOOOVE the trope of 'wishes gone wrong'. not crazy about the stereotypical genie, or the use of the dreamcatcher looking design. (also, I KNOW theyre scientists but the way theyre handling a cold...are the fentons ANTIVAX)

-the genie. she. whitewished paulina. JKASDFHKJ. (the ghost literally just being hello kitty???? im dying) 'why do i feel that im special and wonderful? because I AM! <3' paulina ilu self worth queen. felt bad for her also getting possessed by (2) boys later who were arguing INSIDE HER. WTF.

-imagine being the guy trapped in his now flying car. he thought danny and tucker were HALUCINATIONS. imagine being trapped in a flying car with two, what you think are imaginary arguing 14 year olds convinced ur gonna die. i WOULD say this dude is gonna need so much therapy, but he seemed totally fine and excited when they landed (I would be happy too if a chicken was on my head. chickens rule) stoner rights

-sam's bat slippers??? iconic. SO cute.

-I think desiree's backstory is so :( do all ghosts have messed up sad backstories?? poindexter's was sad too...cannot imagine box ghost has any kind of fucked up backstory. but what if. his mom got pushed off cliffs by boxes...........a la cruella... anyway her 'no man may lay a hand on me' iconic. ilu

-I know danny has no concept of how much bras cost but my god dont attack tucker with some girls bra. those are so expensive.

-its really. well its not a GOOD THING he went into the portal and got fucked up, but its good danny was the one to do it rather than sam or tucker. because even tho he was being influenced by desiree and kept getting more malicious and it prob wasnt 100% him...he sucked as a ghost like most the people he 'pranked' were innocent ppl just Chillin and he didnt want to help anyone at all. I think danny is the most responsible out of them but also, hes 14 and shouldnt HAVE to feel obligated to fight every ghost. hes a good kid and wants to, but I also feel like he feels like...responsible for the portal turning on?? because his parents did give it up,, but it was an accident and not his fault (if anything, why was the on switch on the inside. why was it that easy. why was there no safety measures. that seems like smth OSHA needs to hear about). like thats my son. hes a good boy. and hes never done anything wrong in his life, ever. if anyone hurts him im killing everyone in this room and then myself. etc.

-danny's curfew is 10PM????? DUDE. when I was 14...shit I couldn't be out that late, I had to be back at like, 8 at the latest, and my parents had to know exactly where and who I was going with, AND i had to call/text them regularly...is this a case of my parents being overbearing, or the fentons sucking??? the only time i could EVER be out that late was if I was at an overnight sleepover or smth...

-the vultures have lil fezes. why do they have fezes...theyre so fuckin funny 'ask him for directions' 'I KNOW WHERE IM GOING' these ghost vultures are my new grandpas. pick them up, put them in the adopt box.

-'I wonder why those guys were trying to waste dad!' THEYRE GHOSTS. YOUR DAD HUNTS GHOSTS. why is that not a conclusion you'd immediately jump to??

-*jazz voice, clearly disgusted* WISCONSIN???

-mrs fenton with the lab coat and leg warmers and PERM. YESSS STYLISH.

-was going to say 'ew billionaire' @vlad but. super valid he used his powers to assumedly steal and cheat to get that money, thats how all billionaires do it! but ew hes a SIMP. and spending your billions on FOOTBALL STUFF?? you are Not Valid overall. I DO respect the fact you have a castle instead of a mansion. in wisconsin. if youre going to be stupidly rich might as well go all out, torches on the wall and all. I DO like his ghost form's little kitty ears. catman. and his cape! every design can benefit from a cape. and how different his forms look, like danny looks the EXACT SAME IN BOTH FORMS ASIDE FROM COLOR CHANGES. vlad's is like,, I could believe they were different people!! also I love the drama. but dude you are fighting a 14 year old. lame. also he was like, telling danny he wanted his mom and him and like, wanted him to renounce his dad?? WHAT ABOUT JAZZ?? bitch. those r MY kids and they are both important and special. I do agree they need better parents but thats not u sir <3

-I thought vlad's 'little badger' nickname for danny came from the football mascot of the packers, but google says they have NO MASCOT?? so now I'm like?? is it because his hair is sometimes black and sometimes white?? I hate to give him props but thats a PERFECT NICKNAME. theyre also tiny and vicious!

-why did I get so excited that Skulker is back!! its been like. 2-3 eps LMAO. AND THE DAIRY KING. ICONIC I LOVE HIM. hes the nicest guy ever :) more nice ghosts please. danny cannot be fighting alone everytime with no ghost buds like every ghost being hostile sucks :(

-mr. fenton knew vlad was controlling him, but a few episodes ago he had no clue danny was doing the same thing...is it something about how malicious the ghost is?? he just seemed to think his memory had gaps the first time, this time he was INSTANTLY LIKE 'GHOST'. then again in this ep when danny did it again he was just slightly confused but not immediately freaking out like he did with vlad possessing him!!

-'my parents will accept ME NO MATTER WHAT' so. so why haven't you come out to them yet, danny?? if you really think that?? if theres no harm, and you're sure??? if vlad is a real problem, wouldnt that make dealing with him easier, to expose him???? SO WHY HAVENT YOU COME OUT YET?? COULD IT BE,, MAYBE YOU HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT WHETHER YOUR PARENTS ACTUALLY WILL ACCEPT YOU??? 🤔 ... 🏳‍🌈 I get why people say He Is Trans. I totally totally get u danny.

-sorta unrelated, but it just occurred to me in one of these eps they go to casper HIGH not casper middle school??? theyre 14?? dont highschools usually do ages 15-18? (I didnt go to hs so I might be wrong, if I am ignore this...) freshmen are usually 14-15, could just be a case of them not turning 15 yet but they will sometime in the school year (I say they because tucker said he was 14 too)? I know the show has 3 seasons, so by the end of it will they be older? thatd be neat but usually cartoon characters stay the same age...I love shows where you can see the characters age and grow up, though...three seasons seems like a long time to spend on like, 1 year...

#sanchoyorambles #danny phantom #me on the first post:#its not a liveblog!#me this time: it kinda is. but not in the same format as my tmm one #i like doing one post for a handful of eps bc it saves time #and crowds my blog less #and also i just like talking abt what im watching lol #dp thoughts

"So, I was thinking": a modern college!AU:

Johnny is bored. He has already finished all of his crosswords; all of his friends are busy minding their own business and won't pick up their phones.

Classes won't begin until next Monday. Johnny arrived at his dorm last night and he doesn't know when his roommate will be there. All he knows about this person is his name: LaRusso, Daniel.

Wondering about this mysterious boy could set Johnny free from his boredom. Is he a nerd? Or a drama kid? Johnny hopes he won't sing all the time. Of course he likes music (who doesn't?), but musicals... he isn't ready for them yet.

It would be nice to have some common likings with him. Maybe horror movies or breakfast for dinner (well, Johnny is so broke that he eats it for all meals, basically).

Remembering the old times, which weren't good, not at all, tugs at Johnny's heartstrings. He doesn't miss arguing with his parents all the time, but he certainly liked not having to iron his clothes himself. And he misses messing around with Tommy, Jimmy, Bobby and Dutch after school.

Oh, and Karate! Johnny misses it so much that it hurts. He couldn't find a Karate club to join (is this a thing? In Johnny's opinion, it should be. There are clubs for everything in this campus. If he can't find one, he'll form one). Maybe he can practice with Daniel and he could be the second member of the Karate club.

"Hello! I'm Daniel!"

Johnny stares at the boy. He's short, dark-haired and has round brown eyes.

"Johnny", the blond boy gets up, approaches Daniel and shakes his hand. "Can I help you unpacking?"

"Please", Daniel sighs and rubs his neck. "My mother just dropped me off and turned the car around. I barely had time to say goodbye. Can you believe it? I think she wants to rent my room while I'm gone, but I don't think I'll be going home anytime soon. How about you?"

Obviously, the first thing Johnny learns about Daniel is: he's a chatterbox. Second thing: he's from Jersey. He lives with his mother and would love to learn martial arts, but her mother wouldn’t let him because she’s afraid he will get hurt.

"I know Karate", Johnny confesses with a little smile.

***

Sometimes, Johnny regrets having told Daniel about his passion for Karate, because the kid didn't stop begging Johnny for some classes until he finally gave up.

Their dorm is too small and they would destroy it sparring there, so Johnny decides to have the class outside, behind the gym. Daniel said he would meet Johnny there after dinner (and yes, Daniel also has breakfast for all meals, since he is just as broke as Johnny).

December is on the way, so Johnny is wearing as much sweaters as he can (including his Cobra Kai jacket). He leans his back against the red brick wall and puts a cigarette between his lips.

Daniel shows up some minutes later, carrying a heavy messenger bag on his shoulder and wrapped in hoodies and coats (he has lots of cool hoodies; Johnny loves to borrow them and he is using the baseball one right now).

"Ugh", Daniel puts the bag down, massaging his shoulder.

"Are you ok?", Johnny asks with a worried look on his face.

"Perfect. Let's do this."

They get on fighting positions and spar for a while. When they get tired, they walk back to their room, peacefully talking about the day.

"Let me carry this for you", Johnny picks the messenger bag, even though Daniel has already bent to pull it.

He places it over his shoulder and Daniel walks beside him, ranting about his lame Calculus professor.

"I couldn't convince Mrs. Warter to postpone the paper's due date", Johnny complains when Daniel asks about his day. "I'll be lucky if I get a C on it."

"Do you want me to help you?"

Yes, please, he almost answers. Johnny enjoys having Daniel around. They don't have many common likings besides Karate and breakfast food, but he really enjoys staying up late with him, sharing their only desk (Johnny begun to work as a cashier in a store near the campus and Daniel writes other people's assignments for money and they are saving money to improve the place) and laptops on study sessions. Or to spend rare and lazy Sundays in their room, doing crosswords (Daniel bought some magazines and gave to Johnny). Or to share breakfast meals in the middle of the night because they can't sleep.

"Are you free tonight?", he asks, his voice sounds desperate, just as his eyes.

"Is this a study session or a date?", Daniel replies jokingly and raises an eyebrow. "Sure. I can help you."

Johnny opens his laptop and shows Daniel what he's working on.

"I mean, it's not bad, but could use some adjustments here and there. Let's get to work."

Daniel presses the keyboard keys hard with strong movements that emulate a pianist, but with perfectly tied hair. His brain is formulating what should be in the text and getting rid of what shouldn't be read by Johnny's professor.

"I think we're done here", Daniel declares.

"Thanks. I'm gonna buy you a coffee tomorrow, with extra cream."

"Much appreciated", the boy winks and Johnny's heart skips a beat. "So, I was thinking..."

"What a miracle", Johnny teases, smiling to distract Daniel from his blushing ears.

"Anyway, are you going home for Christmas?"

"I don't think so. You?"

"Also no. I don't have enough money for a ticket to Parsipanny."

Daniel looks at Johnny for a moment. His blue eyes are usually shiny, but now... he's more than just sad. Johnny looks depressed and scared.

"Are you alright?", Daniel reaches for Johnny's hand. "You can talk to me. I'm here for you."

Johnny doesn't talk. Instead, he goes for a hug. A big and warm hug. He clings onto Daniel as if he was the only thing keeping him from being blown away.

He doesn't want to cry. However, he can't fight the tears anymore. Daniel holds Johnny, trying to keep him together only with his bare hands. He doesn't try to whisper comfort words in Johnny's ear, he just stays there, providing his roommate all the support he can.

That night, Johnny falls asleep in Daniel's arms. He has never felt this safe before.

The next morning, Johnny rushes to the closest cafe shop to get the nicest cup they have. He drops by the dorm to put the coffee on the desk with a note: To the best roommate ever. Thank you for everything. Love, J.

He sends the paper to Mrs. Warter as soon as he takes a seat in the computer lab for his first class, hoping Daniel's help can save his poor ass from failing Warter's class.

A few hours later, Johnny is waiting for the last class to begin so he can get to work. Not that he likes standing up by a counter telling old people where they can find raisins, plum juice and other things old people buy. But at least, he gets to listen to his music and does little pieces of homework between a client and another.

There is something Johnny can't do at the store: see Daniel. Too bad they don't take many classes together, because every time Johnny sees Daniel entering the classroom, the world changes. It becomes brighter and more beautiful. He knows it's cliché, but Johnny is tired of pretending to be the perfect son, athlete... he just wants to be Johnny.

And Johnny is brave.

"So, I was thinking...", Johnny says when Daniel sits by his side.

"That's unusual", Daniel lets out that amusement air through his nose. "What is it?"

"Do you wanna go out? With... with me?"

That is really unusual. Johnny never was this reticent before. Not even when he noticed he had a crush on Ali Mills.

“Yeah, sure. When?”

“How about Friday? My shift ends at 5:30.”

“Sounds great.”

***

Johnny spends Christmas in his dorm, with Daniel. They curl up on Johnny’s bed, wrapped in Daniel’s hoodies, solving crosswords puzzles and drinking tea while listening to Johnny’s music. Neither of them wants to talk about their families.

Growing up as an only child, Johnny never had to share his things. He wouldn’t even allow Ali to read his poetry (he wrote some about her, tho), or let his friends go through his Spotify playlist. Not because he's embarrassed to like these songs, but because the lyrics describe him so perfectly that he's not comfortable with someone listening to it in front of him.

When he met Daniel and found out they could be good friends (maybe more than that? Johnny certainly hopes so), he felt an urge to take the boy on a journey through his world. First, they shared Karate, then crossword puzzles and went on and on, discovering little things about one another.

“Huh… I couldn’t get you anything for Christmas, so I wrote you a poem. Wanna hear it?”

Daniel doesn’t say anything, just gets closer to him as Johnny clears his throat and searches his notebook for his newest composition. Once he finds it, he puts the paper in front of his eyes (he was brave enough to ask the boy out, but not to have that lovely brown eyes gazing at him while he reads his feelings out.)

“I loved it, Johnny. Now get ready for your present.”

Johnny doesn’t close his eyes when his lips are pressed by Daniel’s mouth. It feels so good that they do it again and again until they fall asleep, holding each other.

***

Graduation is almost here. Most students have moved from the dorms or plan to do it soon. Daniel and Johnny, on the other hand, haven’t mentioned the matter yet. As you can imagine, they don’t want to live with their families again. The only thing Johnny wants is to stay with Daniel and he wonders if Daniel wants the same thing.

“Hey, Danny”, it was supposed to be a nice and quiet study session before the finals, but Johnny can’t hold this down any longer. “I was thinking… do you wanna live with me?”

“Are you kidding me? You’re never getting rid of me, blondie.”
