Look, I love Vlad and Danny’s canonical throw-down-on-sight dynamic so much it’s amazing. However. An au where not only is this middle-aged billionaire’s sworn nemesis a fourteen year old, but the fourteen year old doesn’t even reciprocate would be. A Little Bit funny.
Like, Vlad’s got all these nefarious schemes and sure, he’s got to stop them, but he doesn’t care about Vlad at all. Vlad’s either ‘be my son’ or ‘I hate you I hate you I’ll destroy everything you care about’ with him but all Danny’s got is vague disdain and a disappointed exasperation whenever he shows up. Every episode with him in it would be cut pretty much in half because Danny just doesn’t engage with his schemes and monologuing in the same way- the majority of their interactions basically consist of Vlad trying so hard to be taken even slightly seriously and Danny either just being Kind Of Mean or vaguely threatening to snitch on him to his parents.
For example:
Vlad: -So the whole town will turn against you! You'll be alone in the world with no one to turn to! Except, perhaps, the only person who might understand. And who do you think that might be, Daniel?
Danny: That's great, man. Does my mom know that you consciously and unironically keep your hair like that?
Vlad: If you're trying to-
Danny, already pulling out the thermos: She won't hate you because you're a ghost she'll hate you because there is No excuse for going out like that in public.
-
Valerie is more important in this au because in my heart she is the Most important all of the time. The moment Danny finds out Vlad gave her the Red Huntress stuff and plans on pulling his Weird Billionaire Manipulation on her he sends her a video of Vlad monologuing (in human form) about how much he wants to kill Jack and marry Maddie and to top it all off he’s talking to a ghost about it. She still doesn’t know Danny’s Phantom or that Vlad’s Plasmius but her and Danny bond more and Vlad Refuses to go near Danny when he’s with her because they just tag-team him so naturally this means they hang out All The Time.
He eventually gets confident enough to mouth off to Red Huntress about him as Phantom as well and when they’ve built up a Solid Not-Actively-Shooting-Each-Other-Out-Of-The-Sky relationship he reveals he’s a halfa, and he allows maybe One Minute for them both to process this development before he follows it up with “Oh and this also means I get to tell you Vlad’s the Wisconsin ghost, so like. If you wanna start going at him for the fact that that outfit was a Conscious Choice with me then. You Know.”
Vlad sends an ominous text and Danny just replies with a picture of him and Valerie both doing the 😐 captioned ‘Damn bro you got the whole squad laughing’ followed by a picture of Jack and Maddie holding hands. Danny is a teenage hero who fully acts like a typical sweet teenage hero with the One Exception of Vlad, whose mental health and wellbeing he has No regard for. Vlad cries himself to sleep at night and Dany doesn’t even care.

Fun Fact:
I'm seeing that many antis (with their lil degrees) haven't read the American Psychological Association's Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct (2017) yet and aren't even aware of the basics. So I thought I'd give them a head start:
And that's just the Principles, or "How not to be a Dickhead 101", to all the budding psychologists... You should really familiarize yourself with all the sections, but particularly standard 5.04 since you all like spouting off so much:
e.g. if you plan on posting something in your official capacity 'as a psychologist, or if you're going to tack "well in my professional opinion as a psychologist..." onto it, it better meet these three listed requirements. Based in your actual knowledge/training/experience (not personal opinion), be appropriately aligned to current accepted literature and practice, be in compliance with other parts of the ethics code, and does not show that you're talking about a current or past client.
American Psychological Association (2017). Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. https://www.apa.org/ethics/code?item=5#204
As well as (for funsies), you should familiarize yourself with the 'Goldwater Rule'. It's not an explicitly written ethical standard however, the language of this rule can be found across several standards including, Unfair Discrimination (3.01) Avoiding Harm (3.04), Other Harassment (3.03), Conflicts of Interest (3.06), Boundaries of Competence (2.01), Personal Problems & Conflicts (2.06), Privacy & Confidentiality (4), Advertising & Public Statements (5), etc.

I think it's hilarious when people don't understand there are different types of mac and cheese and their baked casserole mac and cheese is not the only kind that can be delicious. They're like brownies. Different textures but yet all the same basic ingredients.
Personally I like a looser more velvety style mac.

So I’ve been posting fic for around 6~ years and been writing for around 7 properly, which means I have a lot of half finished stories and brainstorming and nonesense right. But man there’s such a different vibe to actually seeing the compilation of all the paper.
I keep a box of loose paper writing. Most half ideas some drafts of stories. Some just brainstorming or song analysis. I organized it recently into fandoms and ended up with 54 ish which is already so much more than I thought.
But there’s such a disconnect. Bc I’m like. Yeah just it’s been a couple of years but I can’t have *that* much.
Idk I think it’s cool. And yeah some of its my “cringe” really early writing but honestly. I still stand by the stories I wanted to write even if I might not have had as much experience (as much experience as a person with zero qualifications and the only formal education being a single writing class in highschool)
Idk no point to this just rambles. I just. I enjoy having that backlog and proof of my writing. If there’s anything that’s made me feel like a “real” writer is just the proof that I’ve dedicated that much time and resources to end up with physical papers for so many different ideas.
