Check Yes (to go on a date with a dead guy) ch3
“So, what’s your deal?” Jason asked, when Danny’s mouth was full of food. “You’re dead, I notice.”
Danny choked. He gave Jason a betrayed look with big blue eyes, a hand clapped over his mouth to contain any mess.
Jason smirked back, unrepentant. “I died once,” he shared. “Got better though.”
“You got be-”
“You were surprised about what it’s like to fight humans,” Jason continued. It was hard not to laugh at the confused outrage on his date’s face. “So that implies you fight someone else? You’re fighting ghosts or something? Or do ghosts have some kinda natural enemy? Vampires or some shit?” He might have been a bit flippant but sue him, it sounded a lot more magical than his daily life.
Danny opened his mouth and no words came out. He looked like he was in pain when he grudgingly admitted, “I do have a lot of beef with this one vampire guy, Vlad.”
Jason threw his head back and laughed. That was such a vampire guy name, what the hell?
“No, no, it’s not funny,” Danny protested. He waved his hands wildly, flinging a bit of bean from his burrito across the roof they were perched on. “He’s also a ghost- well, he’s a half of a ghost, but that’s a long story from when he was in college.”
“The half-ghost vampire has an undergraduate degree?” Jason interrupted. He needed to know what this fucker studied. Was it like, social science? Literature? Theater? That might explain Danny’s implied belief that a theme was an inherent rogue thing. No, wait, business administration?
Danny gave him a withering look. “He’s got a Doctorate.”
Jason flung his hands up in defeat against the world. That made more sense than an undergraduate degree somehow. There was just something about the type of person who got a Doctorate that made them, you know, creeps.
‘Or maybe they’ve just got enough specialized knowledge to act on latent creepiness,’ he mused. ‘...Shit, am I developing an anti education stance? Can I blame this on Crane and Quinn?’
Danny was continuing with his explanation of the vampire’s background. Every word made it nuttier. “He’s a scientist, actually, and the mayor of a small town. And he lives in a cheese mansion.”
This was a sharp divergence from vampire stereotypes and he needed to know everything.
“Is the mansion made of cheese?” Jason interrupted. He was leaning in, intent on every word. Why was this vampire the most interesting man in the world?
He got a weird look for that. “No, it just belonged to the Dairy King,” Danny said, like it was everyday knowledge that you could expect a layperson to have.
“Of course, the Dairy King,” Jason said wisely.
"Enough about me though!" Danny flailed a bit. "How did you get my uh, number?"
Ah. Jason took a big bite to delay while he chose his words.
There was no point in trying to hide his vigilante identity from Danny. The guy probably didn't even understand the concept.
So he might as well top whatever story Danny had.
"The bat guy who taught me all about being a child soldier got grabbed by this group of loser cultists, right?" He gestured in a way that did absolutely nothing to illustrate the situation.
Danny cocked his head. "This is off to a good start."
"They tried to sacrifice him. You gotta remember him - big ugly guy, dressed in black and gray, underwear on the outside of his pants in a way that's never been cool?"
Danny didn't seem to have words, but he lifted his hands to make two ears on top of his head.
He pointed with both hands. "That's the guy," Jason agreed. "At the time, we didn't know what kind of sacrifice it was. We were thinking more along the lines of blood sacrifice?" He shrugged as if the idea of B biting it meant nothing to him.
Danny made a pffft sound of air escaping between his lips. "I tossed him back." He flailed in place. "I- isn't- wasn't that- that was a while ago," he stuttered. "I kinda forgot about him."
"...You got offered a cape, then a few weeks later a bunch of others, and you didn't make a mental connection?" Jason checked.
Danny flushed. "Time doesn't match up between the realms and anyway, I'm really busy!" He crossed his arms and accidentally knocked over his drink. "I've got a lot going on in my life. Anyway, for a ghost?" Danny blew a raspberry. "I'm sorry to break your heart, but none of you dress wild enough to stand out in the Infinite Realms. We've got robot dudes and child pirates and giant eyeballs and stuff." He gave Jason a smug look. It was cute.
Jason acted on impulse and reached out to ruffle Danny's hair. He realized what he was doing too late. His hand froze above Danny's head.
Danny tilted his face up and made an inquisitive sound.
"There was a bug." Jason pulled his hand back. What was wrong with him? He didn't go touching other people just because they were cute. "It flew off."
"...Right," Danny said. "You're being very normal." He seemed delighted by this, the little gremlin. "So. You were a child soldier too?"
Jason nearly fell off his perch.
Danny shrieked a laugh and pointed. "Ha!" He crowed. "I win! I shocked you first!"
"There wasn't a competition!" Jason lied. His face was bright red. It was too late to save face. "What do you mean too?" He demanded. "Were you a child?"
"Somewhat recently," Danny said. He gave Jason a catlike smile. "Adults come from teenagers, teenagers come from kids, kids come from babies. Do you need to know-"
"I know where babies come from." Jason cut him off. He tried to look off put at the way Danny laughed at him but fuck it, it was funny, in a dumb way. "Of course you were a kid, that was silly of me," he admitted. "Ghosts are made from humans, right?"
"Well yes, but actually no," Danny said, philosophical. "Some of us. I was. Other ghosts are made from like, vultures, or ideas."
It kinda seemed like ghost taxonomy was more complicated than he was ready to get into at the moment. Those two things were pretty fuckin disparate.
Jason sighed heavily and picked up his food again, just to have something to do with his hands.
A thought occurred. He didn't let it show on his face but he felt sick to his stomach.
Danny was dead. Danny said he'd been a child recently, and a child soldier.
Someone needed their ass kicked.
Danny: we are having such a whimsical time!
Jason: sirens screaming

Handing flaming hot cheetos to everyone in the mansion to see who survives
Napoleon: he can have a handful and he's fine. He's eating one of the small .99 cent bags
Mozart: mainly doesn't think it tastes good, but also holding back a cough
Leonardo: he's dowing the entire bag without realizing it. I feel like he'd dip them in something but I have no clue what
Vincent: tearing up a little. He likes some spice but he likes a flavorful spice. Hell eat a few more though just to be sure
Theo: straight up doesn't like them. He wasn't expecting them to actually have a kick either
Arthur: he's holding back a choke and tears as best he can. Please give him milk
Isaac: is choking and crying. Boy is gasping and can't handle it. Stereotypical British boy
Jean: immediately sip it out. Hates it. Don't you dare give him that again. He's now searching for milk
Dazai: also eating the bag shamelessly
Shakespeare: he's so confused by chips to begin with that now making them hot is overwhelming him. British boy number 3 is down. Doesn't like how it stains his fingers
Comte: what do you think? Man is eating so much cheese and bread to get that spice out of his mouth. He's handling it worse than Jean and Isaac.
Sebastian: doesn't mind them but is really only eating a smaller bag not a big family sized bag. But he might if he's distracted enough and that's the bag he had
Vlad: handling it better than you thought. Is also enjoying a small bag of them.
Faust: made a weird face when he first tried them. Not because it was too spicy. But because he thought they tasted bad. Took him a while to get the taste out
Charles: had to eat a few to figure out if he liked them or hated them. He's still not sure so every time you offer him one he will take it and go through all those stages again
Drake: British boy number 4 is actually handling it well. He likes the flavor because well...he's been on a boat for too long and just wants flavor. He's not eating a big bag but he doesn't want the small bag
Galileo: choking. He didn't enjoy that at all. He tells you it's because they taste bad but that tear at the corner of his eye tells you it's the spice

When your daughter melts sometimes,,,,
Been thinking about Cheese Melt again. In my head, it's an AU that begins in KS and carries out the rest of the series. Vlad completely retains his personality, the only difference is he's REALLY attached to Danielle and he finds himself in increasingly domestic situations because of that.
His attachment to Danielle isn't necessarily full blown parenthood right away, either. Vlad is a froot loop who convinced himself only a "perfect" clone of Danny would make him happy, but he's also gloriously stupid & lonely and Danielle is incredibly adorable. So he goes through stages of being in complete denial:
Stage 1: Vlad considers this female clone to be completely disposable.
Stage 2: Vlad's new pawn smiled at him once and is now a "remarkably successful prototype" and he decides to keep her around "for a while" as an "experiment."
Stage 3: Time passes and suddenly Vlad is flippantly telling Danny that Danielle is a "valuable asset worth protecting."
Stage 4: "If my baby melts I'm killing myself."

I like Vlad and the concept of Badger Cereal... But in canon, Skulker was probably a better frenemy to Danny...
Because 1. Skulker never flirted with Danny's Mom...
2. Danny and Skulker have some level of actual respect for each other, while Danny only hates (and kinda fears) Vlad in canon (Danny felt a bit of sympathy for Future Vlad, but that's it)...
3. Skulker teams up with and succeeds in helping Danny at least 4 times (in prison, facing Pariah Dark, facing Ghost Writer and the green asteroid), while Danny teaming up with Vlad ended with them losing to Pariah and later Vlad only helping last minute to lock Pariah away, or Vlad ditching Danny to get attacked by Vortex...
This isn't Vlad hate, I'm just saying that most people overlook Skulker's potential, as a frenemy to Danny. 🤔
I'm gonna have to politely disagree with you here, anon 😂 Skulker attempted to straight up kill Danny—repeatedly—and makes regular threats against his life. He wants Danny's dead, flayed carcass nailed to his trophy wall, in no uncertain terms.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is his enduring MO. Vlad had to step in and literally save Danny's neck in Bitter Reunions.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It makes Vlad's flirtations with Danny's mom seem pretty negligible, to be honest.
Tumblr media
Skulker also tried to slaughter Dash along with Danny in Micro Management, and he pitted Valerie and Danny against each other in Life Lessons for the sole purpose of hunting the stronger of the two.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cranial tether ball is pretty damn metal gruesome. This dude is like the bloodthirstiest Klingon who ever lived. Except for the Christmas episode and his brief cameo in Phantom Planet, he's never not presented as a serious threat to Danny's life. He's out for blood and guts in the worst way. I just don't see him ever reaching "frenemy" status with Danny (in canon, at least; what happens in fanfic and AUs is a whole other ballgame, just like Badger Cereal and Cheese Melt).

Ok hear me out,
Nicktoons Unite except Dan, who got trapped in a Danny clone’s body at the end of a glitch in time, takes Danny place.
Dan is having a hard time adjusting to his new life, especially since Vlad is no his legal guardian. Vlad is trying to make it work, but Dan is still going through some heavy stuff and lashing out. He doesn’t want this, he wants revenge. That is until Jimmy Neutron contacts him, Mistaking him for Danny Phantom, since he’s a clone and has a similar energy signature. Dan takes it as an opportunity to get out of Vlad’s sight for a bit. The whole nicktoons team thinks he’s Danny and end up spending time with him.
For Dan it’s like catching up with old friends while also having to keep up the facade he’s not the Danny they know.
So they go on an adventure but are interrupted when Vlad finds them and says he’s taking Daniel. The squad fights him off but Vlad says this isn’t over and retreats. The squad continues with only Jimmy questioning Dan but it’s shot down by Timmy’s reassurance. They bond and have fun doing missions together.
Eventually Vlad shows up again, this time with the real Danny Phantom in tow. With his secret out, the squad turns on him for lying and Dan no longer puts up a fight and ends up leaving with Vlad and Danny. Dan lashes out at them for not just leaving him alone and that they were once his friends too. Danny straight up says he can’t be trusted and the two go back and forth with each other until Vlad steps in and dismisses Danny, assuring him that he has Dan under control.
Danny is reluctant but leaves anyways. After he leaves, Dan storms to his room and shuts the door. Vlad later shows up with a tray of food, specifically cheese, and tries to get him to come out. When Dan says nothing, Vlad tells him that Dan isn’t alone in this. Dan is part Danny, but he’s also part Vlad, and he knows the anger that Dan is feeling. It’s ugly and cruel and only wants to make the people who hurt them suffer. But that’s not what healing is. They both have to heal in order to become better people. Not good people, neither of them are willing to become heroes, but maybe something better than they are now.
Dan eventually opens the door and the two talk. Eventually, Vlad tells Danny about their talk and after a while Danny takes Dan back to see the Nicktoons. He’s weary at first but once the squad says Danny explained everything to them and that they see why he lied to see them again. Dan is then invited to come back and see them whenever.

Little things I liked/thought were funny/want to yell into the void about (but not in a bad way) in the first Nicktoons Untie game and only the first one because it's the only one I've actually played part of and I'm biased. SPOILERS ABOUND!
Sandy unironically making Patrick a spy
Patrick immediately blows his cover and gets captured
the whole bit before and after Plankton's boss fight about his mother
the video call from Calamatus where Plankton and Vlad have to finish his sentences
the fact that said call doesn't have Crocker in it+the camera movements being janky like a person was holding it as opposed to a robot, so one could infer that Crocker was holding the camera for the Big Plan Reveal To The Heroes TM
Timmy calling Spongebob a piece of cheese
Goddard has fleas. this is an integral part of the plot
"Well this is the craziest thing I've seen since....well, since last Tuesday." Spongebob. Spongebob what happened buddy. What happened. What did you do.
Spongebob's little scared jump animation in some of the cutscenes where his eyes bulge out of his face like a looney tune
"Great things come in small packages-just ask Wanda!" COSMO WHAT THE FUCK
The fact that Cosmo and Wanda can be out and visible and shit, like the Secret Fairy Godparents are no longer secret to anybody here. Crocker can fucking see them.
I get the angst of people making like. fanfics and whatnot of Timmy losing his fairies and forgetting the other nicktoons. I GET it. but like. honestly. I think he'd be fine.
I just think Jorgen would let Timmy keep his fairies even outside of the whole crossover spinoff games because like. How many fucking times have they had to save the world. From something Timmy didn't make to begin with. Anyways
The Doomsday Device has four comically large wall plugs, which are probably color coded to each of the members for each world being siphoned
Calamatus' stupid little fucking dance while the boys try to scramble and stop the device. Seriously. Look up a cutscene video and watch his little stupid fucking dance.
Spongebob saves the day by unplugging the comically large plugs
Jimmy, after being given a Fenton thermos by Danny: Wait Vlad's not in here is he O-O
Spongebob would have to owe Mr Krabs money for saving the world, the Krusty Krab, and Mr Krabs himself on company time, even though the opening cutscene suggests that Spongebob was off today because his first idea of what to do that day was go visit Patrick.
Everybody talks about Jimmy and Timmy dating, Danny and Spongebob being besties, and the different roles each person plays in the squad's general relationship dynamics, but I wanna know what those Middle-Aged Scientifically-Minded GOOBERS known as the Syndicate had going on while they weren't getting their asses kicked
I'm not even talking about shipping I just want to know what those conversations were like.
Like. Plankton wants a sandwich recipe. His key to ruling Bikini Bottom is a really good burger, but the others might not understand that Krabby Patties are the glue of Bikini Bottom society and therefore an important political piece. How does this fact play off the other villains
Vlad and Plankton seem comfortable finishing Calamatus' sentences for him already and don't really seem annoyed so they must be at least a little friendly with him
Vlad's little run into the portal after his boss fight is actually pretty well done considering the rest of the jank in the animations
Spongebob lets himself be sprayed down in (what is to him) a mystery substance made by a stranger
ASS FIRST MIGHT I ADD
Jimmy's solution to the gang breathing in Bikini Bottom is chewing gum
"Spongebob, your birthday's not for another month"
Jenny XJ-9 should have fucking been there. She had existed for 2 years. My Life as a Teenage Robot had only ended like 2 months before the first Nicktoons Unite game first released in 2005
Yes it was 2005
Look there's 2 cartoons made by Bitch Hartman in this game. Nice of them to add Tak and Zim and Dib and whatnot but I think Jenny would have done well with the others in the first game.
ALSO BECAUSE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH GIRLS!!!!!!! WE NEED MORE GIRLS!!!! SANDY AND SAM AND WANDA AND CINDY ARE NOT ENOUGH!!!!
And!!! AND!!!! Who would be more willing to rule multiple worlds than the fucking CLUSTER???
would've also added like. another world/hour to the game. could be nice for a remake. hint hint wink wink nudge nudge

Principal Masters AU (Casper High Ravens)
Tumblr media
I was thinking about my Principal Masters AU recently and an interesting thought occurred to me. So we all know Vlad's a cheese-head, aka a huge Packers fan, right? Well as the new principal of Casper High I bet Vlad gets well acquainted with Dash and the other Jocks over time, especially Dash because he's the ringleader of the bullies.
Anyways, I kind of imagine Vlad starts feeling torn between excitedly rooting for/supporting such a talented high school football team (I'm assuming they are but I might be wrong) and low-key defending Danny from time to time since part if is goal is to win him over while also putting him in his place depending on the day. But Vlad is also of the mindset that he's the only person allowed to truly torment Danny if that makes any sense. I guess you could say Vlad begins keeping Dash in check with some smooth talking and feeding his ego in being better than everyone else.
Tumblr media
At the same time though, Vlad begins to understand Danny on a whole new level because he forgot how much he was bullied too back in college and possibly all throughout his school years before he became a billionaire. It's a weird balance of Vlad wanting to be someone Danny actually WANTS to turn to for help and still being his arch enemy in most regards...
That's what keeps Danny guessing what Vlad's motives are and on high alert most of the time. However, it's a step in the right direction for Vlad to become someone at school Danny knows might cut him some slack from time to time. Plus, weird as it sounds its interesting to see Vlad in a normal setting cheering for the Casper High Ravens.
So there you have it, hope you liked this random thought of mine lolz!

It's sunday and Saiwa is taking a day off from working all week long on their game and the device to send messages and produce over to the Muggle World. Today he's going to spend all day trying to bring Kiyoshi back! Since the day he started talking a few days ago Saiwa is pondering about things that could trigger his way back. And then he remembered the Cat Café. And how Kiyoshi had reacted on the cats. Goats are animals too and so they went to care for the goats. And really. Kiyoshi hugged his Little Goat!
Tumblr media
And again he exitedly mumbled something that sounded like 'I like Bird!'... Saiwa sighs. He knows that Kiyoshi needs time to adjust to this world and even to how time passes here. Spending a few decades as a tree surely messed him up. But it's time he comes back and they can talk to each other and set things right. Saiwa can't be Kiyoshi's 'Bird'...
Tumblr media
Kiyoshi wasn't around that often to get to know him very well and he kept his life mostly a secret but Saiwa remembered something else. He took Kiyoshi over to Jack's Nectar Shop.
Tumblr media
Saiwa: "Jack, do you remember your wine and cheese cellar at the Invisible Farm? Kiyoshi loved to be there and make his cheese!" Sure, he loved to be there, but mostly to secretly make out with Jack... But he can't tell Saiwa this -.- He swore by his life he'd never tell anyone. It's time Kiyoshi comes back to set things right. He'll never be able to heal if he can't talk with his friends about what happened between them.
Tumblr media
Saiwa started making cheese and it seems to make Kiyoshi happy. Of course it does -.- He was babbling all the time, just no one could understand a single word. As if he was mumbling in his sleep.
Tumblr media
Sai left them alone for a few minutes to go to the bathroom (alone!) Jack to Kiyoshi: "I knew since you left the farm that you are Saiwa's fated mate. I just don't understand why you did all this with me then. Was I just a substitute for Saiwa? Did you really step back so Sai and Jeb could be together? End this uncertainty. Come back and set things right. We are hurting. I'm just trying to get over us. It's so painful, you can't imagine."
Tumblr media
When Sai was back, Jack went over to his houseboat to give Ji Ho 'Lessons in how to love Vlad' again ^^' Today they are talking about Vlad's qualities.
Tumblr media
Jack: "... and he's so talented! He's an amazing writer and painter. And you won't believe me when I say this, but he can really be funny! And he's so handsome! And he's a good kisser!" Ji Ho: "Vlad is utterly beautiful. I was stunned when I first saw him..." Jack: "And then he hissed at you and was mean..." Ji Ho sighed: "And then he hissed at me and was mean... But I agree, he's a fantastic kisser."
Tumblr media
Jack: "And I'm glad he has his black eyes back. The normal eyes were creepy. Do you think the Bond still tells him to kill us?" Vlad: "Not the Bond. But I somehow feel the urge to kill you, Jack..." Jack to Ji Ho: "He's just kidding ^^'" and to Vlad: "It's not wise to torpedo my efforts here!"
Tumblr media
Vlad sighs. Why again was Jack his best friend? And why does he always have to overhear such conversations? This is so embarrassing! But Ji Ho thinks he's a fantastic kisser! And that he's 'utterly beautiful'! (And there he smiled :3 too bad no one witnesses it.)
Tumblr media
Outtakes Caught Jeb watching TV when I logged in. With gritted teeth, like the cat below the TV ^^' Poor Jeb, he can't bear watching couples kissing while he's loosing his Giigs to Kiyoshi...
Tumblr media
'Now, I'm lookin' to the sky to save me Lookin' for a sign of life Lookin' for somethin' to help me burn out bright And I'm lookin' for a complication Lookin' cause I'm tired of lyin' Make my way back home when I learn to fly high
I think I'm dyin' nursing patience It can wait one night I'd give it all away if you give me one last try We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life Run and tell the angels that everything's alright'

Out of curiosity. Have you had any ideas for Vlad?
He seems like he'd be difficult to design for the AU given how he 'died'.
Well, this one might be a bit of a gross description so keep that in mind when going beyond the read more cut
At the very least he'd look as though he was still covered in ecto-acne, perhaps way worse than we've ever seen on the show
He could even have somewhat along the lines of burn marks all over his face and glazed-over eyes since the proto-portal blasted him right in the face (although as far as we know the proto-portal didn't kill him right away, he likely died during his time in the hospital due to the lethal ecto-acne, he could still have been left with burn marks in ghost form if he died from the acne before the burns healed)
Heck, I'd imagine that some of the ecto-acne postules probably popped and left his skin full of craters/holes where there aren't postules (which, while gross, could also be kinda funny because of the cheese, so part of the reason why he gets known as the Wisconsin Ghost is because he also looks -and possibly smells- like cheese, pff)
It is kind of hilarious to imagine that Vlad thinks his ghost form is this handsome vampire lookalike, but in actuality humans think he's some gross blue cheese ghost XD Like with Danny, it does help keep people from making the connection between Vlad Masters and the Wisconsin Ghost though

6 more days~
Prompt: Wedding Planning (fluff)
You have been planning this for months now. You finally have the colors picked out, the theme, the food you're going to have. Everything needs to be perfect.
Faust keeps saying to just have your wedding at the church but you don't want that. Nor do you want Faust to marry the two of you. Plus you think Charles would rather have him as his best man.
When you announced your engagement, Vlad and Comte started arguing about who would give you away.
All of the guys at the mansion are trying to help you with planning, either it's making the food, or making the cake. You don't want them to be a part of the wedding, you just want them to enjoy and not stress about it, which would be easier if you weren't so stressed.
You and Charles picked the date a few months back, and you only have a few months to get everything together, which is why you both are going to go test cake today.
You walk through town holding hands, walking to one of your favorite bakeries. Charles talked to them a few days ago asking if they would do your wedding cake and they said they would make a few samples for you two to try.
"What kind of cake were you thinking of having?"
"Whatever kind you like," he smiles
You playfully give him a push. "Noo. Really. Did you want a normal cake or something flavored. I don't want you to say you like it just because I do."
He gives it a thought. "I don't want chocolate. It's very dry to me."
You nod and think. "I don't want pistachio."
"Pistachio? Like the nut? I wouldn't want that either," he makes a sour face, making you laugh.
"Having a bunch of flowers on it would be so pretty, don't you think?" You were thinking about having a bunch of flowers made of icing all over the cake, all in the colors you two chose.
"Flowers? How would- oh! You mean made of icing."
"Yes, silly," you kiss his cheek and in a few minutes you are at the bakery.
The owner brings out a tray of small sample sizes of cake along with different kinds of icings and fillings.
Charles picks up a fork and goes to try one of the pieces while you do the same, but he redirects his hand and the fork goes into your mouth.
You were surprised but ate it anyway, and fed him with your fork.
After trying them all you move to the fillings and the icings.
"What if we do a lemon cake with a raspberry filling," Charles offers.
You both really liked the idea of fruit filling between a buttercream.
"I don't know about lemon. I liked the red velvet but I don't want a cream cheese icing," you pout and lick the rest of the icing off your fork. "What if everyone else doesn't like lemon?"
Charles chuckles, he had a feeling that's why you didn't want to go with it. "But it's our cake. That just means there's more for us."
He uses his thumb to wipe a crumb off the side of your mouth.
You look back at what your options were. No chocolate. Vanilla is too plain. You don't want raspberry or strawberry since your filling is already raspberry.
"Lemon it is!" You face lights up, excited to already get the cake you have imagined in your head.
You talk with the baker explaining what you want it to look like. This is definitely a lot of cake for the small guest list that you have, but it's going to look so beautiful.
After being in there for an hour you two finally leave.
"Where to now mon amour?"
"I don't know about you, but I get to go try on dresses," you smile. You know Comte is willing to spend any amount of money for your wedding dress.
He gives you his puppy dog pout. "Does that mean I can't come?"
"You don't get to see it until our wedding day," you poke his nose and smile. "Why don't we meet up later for dinner. I'll meet you at the park in a few hours?"
"If I must go a few hours without your beautiful face then I guess I must," he kisses your lips. "Whatever you pick I'm sure it will be beautiful."
You kiss him back. "I love you," you finally let go of.his hands and start walking.
"I love you more~"
"I love you the most," you giggle and rush off to the bridal shop.

Are there any songs that you associate with Vlad and Dani?
Absolutely, Blinding Lights by The Weeknd, Love Game (Timecop1983), and Static (Timecop1983), all of which specifically make me think of Vlad and Dani in the Girl Out of Time AU. The 80s vibes plus the lyrics in each of these songs are thematically perfect for the 1986 cheese melt angst!! I'm strongly considering doing a lyrical comic based off one of them...
Also, low key the entirety of the Timecop1983-Searching For Tomorrow album can be considered part of Girl Out of Time's soundtrack. I've listened to it enough times (in addition to 80s rock and pop songs) while working on the AU's art to have a scene associated with almost every song off it!

Why did the cartoon never show us Danny's Birthday? It would be so funny if Vlad comes whatever he is invited or not. While everyone else made a little gift to Danny, Vlad could give a truck of sweets, cheese, toys and flowers.
This would be especially insidious if Danny and Vlad still considered themselves enemies—and if Vlad happened to be mayor at this time.
Tumblr media
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY... DANNY FENTON."
Because now everyone sees Mayor Masters as being so kind and generous and thoughtful to Danny, and if Danny so much as makes a snide comment against Vlad's character, the whole of Amity Park will rise up against him. What an ungrateful brat! What's his problem? I can't believe he'd be so rude! The other kids at school would make Danny's life a living hell (well, worse than it already is), not to mention the verbal lashing he'd get from his parents.
"Danny, honey, I know you and Vlad aren't the best of friends, but can't you at least send him a thank you card? Some of these gifts are so expensive."
"Yeah, Danny, you can't just snub Vladdie like that. He puts on a tough front, but he's really got a soft heart. He's probably wondering why you haven't called yet."
And thus Danny is forced to interact with Vlad and smile and be nice and thank him him while suppressing the urge to phantom punch him into the middle of next week.
Definitely the worst birthday ever.

Shattered Identity
Chapter five: Pizza party at Vlad's! And gross horrors, lots of gross horrors.
Chapter one. Chapter two. Chapter three. Chapter four.
"Jeez, you two almost gave us a heart attack!" Tucker halfheartedly scolded the half-ghosts in the hallway as he texted Danny the message that the two broke off their fight on their own. "Don't get me wrong, I'm glad things didn't get uglier than this, but next time, at the very least, yell for us if something happens instead of just turning the office into a haunted confetti storage room."
"Sorry Tucker, I didn't know you and Sam were here in the first place."
Danielle sheepishly twiddled her thumbs while her new little brother tapped on the bandages on his neck with an annoyed huff in response.
"Oh.. right, no vocal chords, my bad..." The geek winced. "Maybe we can get you an airhorn later."
"Or he could just scream without words." The technically older clone offered. "You two heard the ghost speak, right?"
"Huh, I always figured that ghost speak would sound... creepier and less like random animalistic noises?"
"♓︎♐︎ ⍓︎□︎◆︎ ⬥︎♋︎■︎⧫︎ ♓︎⧫︎ ⧫︎□︎ ⬧︎□︎◆︎■︎♎︎ ♍︎❒︎♏︎♏︎◻︎♓︎♏︎❒︎," [if you want it to sound creepier,] Jack cracked his neck at an unnatural angle, the sickening sound followed by the squelches of wet ripping noises reverberated through the mansion and the action left the bandaged head dangling limply, giving the impression it was only attached to his body through the bandages on his neck themselves... "♓︎ ♍︎♋︎■︎ ❍︎♋︎🙵♏︎ ♓︎⧫︎ ⬧︎□︎◆︎■︎♎︎ ♍︎❒︎♏︎♏︎◻︎♓︎♏︎❒︎..." [i can make it sound creepier...]
"Gah! Never do that again!" She shivered and punched the older halfa's arm, who let out a raspy chuckle as he reattached his head and opened the office door.
An uncomfortable silence fell as the destroyed state of the office was discovered, much worse than how the sparring spirits left it, large globs of bright magenta ectoplasm had grown(?) all over the office, globs that weren't just the messy aftermath of the brawl, they were writhing and squirming as if they were alive, some of them even had developing eyes and teeth..
"❄︎◆︎♍︎🙵♏︎❒︎, 💧︎♋︎❍︎, 🙵♏︎♏︎◻︎ ⍓︎□︎◆︎❒︎ ♎︎♓︎⬧︎⧫︎♋︎■︎♍︎♏︎..!" [Tucker, Sam, keep your distance..!]
The two humans, while they didn't understand what the ghostly host said, understood the unknown nature of the threat at hand as well as his body language and backed away from the scene while the mansion's owner took a slow, hesitant step into the infested office, trying not to catch the attention of the strange creatures, their unfocused eyes instead drifting over the room itself as the bandaged ghost gingerly searched through the rubble looking for the most important items to salvage from it.
"...What are these things..?" Danielle's voice stayed small to not catch any unwanted attention from the unknown ghostlike entities as she followed him, her fist alight with a charging ectobeam as she kept an eye out for sudden movements from them.
"I_D-O-N-T_K-N-O-W" He spelled out on the recovered Ouija board "I-V-E_N-E-V-E-R_S-E-E-N_A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G_L-I-K-E_T-H-I-S_B-E-F-O-R-E"
Sure, from their perspective, 'Jack' not seeing anything like this was a given, he hadn't existed for very long, but Vlad had genuinely no idea how he had done this. A failed copying attempt that he didn't think through during the fight? Maybe a mishap with etco-barriers? ...Something else entirely..? All he really knew was that this was his ectoplasm everywhere and that it was alive.
Cheese curds! He should've known that he was biting off more than he can chew!
How was he supposed to handle this on his own?!
His powers were useless like this at best and detrimentally unstable at worst,
he couldn't get across how important this was to Danny without telling the truth,
but he can't tell Danny the truth!
Let alone Dani!
If they know that he's the real Vlad and he has all his memories but almost none of his powers,
they're going to take advantage of his weakened state and kick his butt!
and
at this rate all of Amity park is going to be enveloped in whatever this horrific ecto-gunk was before he even had a chance to carry out his plan-
and
Maddie is going to see it-
and
use it as a reason to make MORE of those horrible guns-
and
use them on the gunk as well as every single ghost in her sights-
and
she'd naturally set her sights on the ghost zone itself-
and
there wouldn't be a war between humans and ghosts,
and
except that it would be a genocide that he couldn't stop-
and
and
and
and
and-
Snapping out of the downward spiral of negative thoughts, Vlad felt the familiar lab coat being draped over his shoulders as well as two people touching him, one hugging him from behind (the person in question being small enough that people might mistake it for a piggyback ride), and the other who was awkwardly patting his shoulder.
Ugh, was he crying..?
Well, now he had another reason to keep his true identity secret from Danny and the others.
He would die of embarrassment if they knew that he wasn't a clone, still had his memories intact, and yet was still reduced to this weak, pathetic, over-emotional wreck, either they'd find it hilarious or worse, still pity him despite everything.
Part of him wanted to break off the hug to preserve the tatters of his pride and dignity while another part of him just wanted to stay like this a bit longer.
As humiliating as it was for him, it was also kinda nice to be held, to be reassured (albeit clumsily), to be comforted, to be loved.
"Uh, guys, hate to interrupt something but I just wanted to let you know Sam's ordering pizza, what flavors do you want?"
Both saved and damned by the pizza orders, the three halfas broke it off and Vlad put the lab coat on properly.
"Uh Pepperoni?" Danny shrugged.
"Also Pepperoni" Dani nodded.
"E-X-T-R-A_C-H-E-E-S-E_P-L-E-A-S-E"
"Got it" Tucker gave them a thumb's up and turned to head back to Sam before popping his head back in. "Will the cats try to attack the pizza guy?"
"NO_I" He fumbled with the planchette in an attempt to cover up the slip. "V-L-A-D_D-I-D-N-T_O-R-D-E-R_T-A-K-E_O-U-T_O-F-T-E-N_E-N-O-U-G-H_T-O_W-A-R-R-E-N-T_T-H-A-T_T-O_M-Y_K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E."
"Okay, thanks!"
The tech geek left for real this time, leaving the three to their own devices.
"So Danny, have you met my new little brother?" The physically youngest ghost gestured to the tallest.
"Jack? Yeah, he showed up at my house and named himself after my dad."
"You named yourself after someone you just met?" Dani snorted in amusement.
"T-H-E-R-E-S_W-O-R-S-E_N-A-M-E-S_T-O_G-I-V-E_Y-O-U-R-S-E-L-F_A-N-D_B-E-S-I-D-E-S_H-E_S-E-E-M-E-D_P-R-E-T-T-Y_N-I-C-E" Vlad shrugged nonchalantly.
From the dishonest ghost's actual perspective, it was something done because he named himself after the first thing he saw (that being the giant oaf) and he stuck with it because in foresight, 'Vlad naming his son after him', would break Jack Fenton that much more during both the reveal of Vlad's death as well as the funeral, in which he and Maddie would either figure out on their own or he'd tell them in his speech that he never had the chance to meet his father before his untimely tragic fate. And Maddie would feel all the more guiltier when she finds out that her horrible gun has taken a human life, one that, while she didn't care very much for, was important as well as cherished by many...
"So how did you know how to find Danny's house so quickly? Or did he bring you there?"
"H-E_F-O-U-N-D_M-E_I-N-J-U-R-E-D_A-N-D_T-R-I-E-D_T-O_H-E-L-P" The bandaged spook explained, being honest yet vague. "A-N-D_I_C-A-M-E_B-A-C-K_I-N_T-H-E_M-O-R-N-I-N-G_T-O_P-R-O-P-E-R-L-Y_I-N-T-R-O-D-U-C-E_M-Y-S-E-L-F."
"Well that's my super-cool cousin for you!" she playfully punches her gene-donor's shoulder. "Always willing to help!"
"Heh, yeah..." Danny gave a nervous smile to his clone and a concerned to 'Jack'. "Hey, speaking of which, you and I need to talk about your... 'issue' in private."
"G-I-V-E_M-E_A_S-E-C-O-N-D_T-O_G-R-A-B_M-Y_T-R-A-N-S-L-A-T-O-R"
Danny nodded and waited as the lanky spirit visually followed the charger to the discarded aid and cleaned the non-living ectoplasm off of it before putting it on his neck and giving him a thumb's up which Danny gave back.
Following the fourteen-year-old out of Dani's presumed ear shot, the lab coat wearing specter nervously picked at his hand's bandages wondering what 'issue' Danny was talking about, his mind almost imminently racing towards him asking 'did you get your memories back?' or something similar.
"Okay, so, don't get me wrong, I'm glad that you and Dani aren't fighting with each other anymore, but right now, we're playing with fire with this cover up. You might not remember, but she's been through a lot because of you- er, Vlad, I could not care less who else does and doesn't know the truth, but she needs to sooner rather than later."
Unbeknownst to the two of them, the clone was eavesdropping out of their sight. Her concern for her new little brother turning into intrigue.
"I know." he nodded somberly. "I plan on telling her everything after the funeral itself. I agree that she does need to know soon, but right now there's too many moving parts to keep track of and I don't know how she'll react to it."
Danny crossed his arms as he frowned at the taller halfa.
"Look, I might not know what I've done, but I get that I've done a lot before waking up and that there's no amount of verbal apologies that would undo all of it. However, this is for her safety too. Like it or not there's two problems that take top priority: Your mom's gun that will cause ghost zone genocide if nothing's done with it, and the power vacuum Vlad's death will inevitably cause. If you think that it causing genocide is just a hyperbole, think back on it, all it took was one hit to reduce a fully-grown, powerful halfa down to just a damaged core desperately clinging onto life, a core that would've shattered if left on its own, so tell me, what do you think would happen if you or her got hit with it?"
"...We'd instantly die..."
"Exactly, and your mom, a competent ghost hunter, knows how powerful that thing is and if it doesn't have any drawbacks from her end, she most likely wont stop using it until every ghost in her sights is dead, yes, even the good ones as well as the not as good but still likeable ones. As for the power vacuum, there are a handful of ghosts who know Dani's origin other than us, ghosts who would be more than happy to kill the only known heir to Vlad's estates while she's none the wiser. But if I handle the funeral *just* right, I could kill two birds with one stone, keep your mom from using the gun ever again and seal up the power vacuum. I know that she'll hate us-"
"Us? Where did you pull 'us' from?"
"Danny, she'll hate me for obvious reasons and hate you because you knew this big secret about me this entire time and never told her. But it'll be okay because she'll still be alive when she hates us, alive and safe. Which in a messy situation like this is the absolute best possible outcome."
"...Right..." Danny sighed.
"Hey," Vlad put his hand on the teen's shoulder reassuringly "she might hate me forever, but not you. Either someone she knows and trusts other than you will talk some sense into her or she'll cool off on her own and realize that you're not the bad guy in this. That in some cases, there isn't a bad guy when there's a bad situation and that sometimes, bad things just... happen and good or neutral guys are bad at handling it."
"Yeah... Thanks, I needed that..." he softly smiled.
Assuming that the conversation was wrapping up, Dani flew back to the office with new secret information to chew on for herself as well as keep hidden from her cousin and brother.
She already knew about Vlad's death and some things were self-explanatory, like the new gun being a big problem, but just how much did Jack Masters know? What dark secrets did the clone of Vlad hide that he shared with Danny and yet were so horrible that she'd never forgive him if she knew?
Was his original purpose not to tie up the loose ends Vlad's death left behind like he said but instead he was made with some of his gene donor's memories intact so that Vlad had pseudo-immortality only for Jack to betray his 'father' by living a different and new life?
Did he try to hunt down Danny and his parents just like how she originally tried to capture him?
Maybe even something worse..?
At the very least, they weren't worried about his malnourished frame meaning something bigger than it was, or Vlad's disease being fatal for Jack, or even the living ectoplasm he created was dangerous like she originally assumed the talk was about, and she could find some comfort in knowing that he valued her safety and well being over their bond as family. Her new brother might be shady, but he had a heart somewhere in those shadows.
"Oh hey guys! How was the talk?" She innocently greeted them as they approached the office.
"It went well."
"Yes, it was rather... informative." Jack picked at the bandages on his forearms while looking around the destroyed office for a distraction. Wait, where did the living ectoplasm go?! "Oh right! I can't believe I almost forgot the records!" He blurted out to keep the two from panicking as much as he was.
"...Records?" Danny raised an eyebrow at the pair.
"Yeah, fake marriage certificates, divorce paperwork, birth certificates, Social Security Numbers, school documents, passports, a not-fake-but-still-legally-questionable death certificate, maybe a fake death certificate for a woman who doesn't exist or two..." Jack listed off on his fingers "My job's more than writing the death certificate and will and calling it a day."
"Woah, woah woah! What do you need all that for?"
"Daniel, the days where someone can just pop into existence as the ages we are without any records of existing prior without drawing suspicion are long behind us. Sure, we could get away with not having them if we intend to live as a state-crossing nomads for a couple of weeks or months if we're lucky, go feral in the woods and let the public come to the conclusion that we were raised by animals while our bio parents abandoned us, or live in the ghost zone where there's a lot less organized existence trails, but we can't live like the average human person without this stuff, not in the long term in the human world. Sooner or later, the government is going to catch up to us and when that happens, we at least have something to shoo them away."
"Huh..."
"Wait, going feral in the woods is an option?" Dani asked her two-day-old physically older brother.
"Yeah, but it's not a good one. Trust me, I tried." Vlad waved off without further elaboration and shuffled the documents.
"Guys, pizza's here!"
Saved by the pizza yet again, the three changed back to their human forms and followed the geek back to the Mansion's foyer, where Sam was waiting for them along with several boxes of pizza and cans of soda were set down, almost enough to feed a frat party rather than a small group of teenagers who happened to have different diets. ...He had a strong feeling that they paid for all of this with one of his debit cards.
"Here you go." Tucker handed the bone-thin halfa five boxes. "I figured you could use it."
"Thanks..." Vlad stared at the boxes in his hands and gestured with his head. "...I'm just gonna, eat these in the other room..."
"No! No! You can stay, we won't judge!" Dani tugged on his sweater sleeve while giving him puppy dog eyes.
"Fine, but all of you get ONE question each, so use it wisely." He set the boxes down and sat on the floor next to them, crossing his legs while opening the top box
"What makes you think we're going to ask questions?" The goth raised an eyebrow "Everybody but Danny already saw your gross ecto-oozing fa-OH MY GOD!"
Everybody but Dani stared at the sight of Vlad's scarred, almost mangled-looking face in horror as the eldest teen just rolled his eyes at their terrified expressions, pocketed his face mask and munched on a slice of cheesy pizza while the others gawked at him like he was some sort of monster.
"...Does it hurt?" Dani was the first to break the awkward silence. "To eat, I mean..."
"Nope, I don't have any working nerves in my face." He lied nonchalantly between bites, not wanting them to know how much pain he was actually in. "Regardless of if its supposed to hurt or not, I can't feel a thing."
"..So if I punch you in the face, you wont feel it at all?" Sam was the next to ask.
"Yes, and you wasted your one question on that, so now you can't ask if you can test it." Vlad immaturely stuck his tongue out at her while she rolled her eyes out of annoyance and took a slice of her cheeseless mixed veggie pizza.
Tucker sat down near Jack and subtly studied his face while opening up the box of meat lover's pizza, if he was only going to get one question about this clone of Vlad's abnormal medical condition, he wanted to make it count.
From what he could tell, the marks on his face were less like acne scars like he assumed they should be (given that the clone probably had ecto-acne at one point, just like his gene donor with a chronic condition) and closer to... either really severe chemical burns or someone pouring boiling acid on his face. Closer, yet not identical to.
He couldn't tell how damaged the upper half of his face was due him having band-aids covering up some of the damage, but even then it was clear that the disfigurements around the clone's mouth were the most intense.
Whatever was used to scar his face ate off his lips and chunks of his cheeks, giving his left-side profile a ghoulish, too-toothy grin regardless of if its owner felt like smiling or not while the right side had a half-inch wide strip of flesh ending the 'smile' while also creating another hole in his face, and if he looked closely enough, he also seemed to be missing a part of his tongue in a way that made it look like there was a bite taken out of it...
"...Can I help you?" Jack asked without bothering to hide the irritation in his tone.
"O-oh uh... I just wanted to ask..." Darn it Tucker, think! You can't waste this question! "I couldn't help but notice that the lower half of your face seems more visibly damaged than the upper half, and that part of the inside of your mouth was partly eaten too, I don't mean to sound insulting but was that just random chance or was your... ...illness on the top half of your head focusing primarily on eating chunks of your brain instead of your face? Again, I don't mean this in an insulting way..."
Sam burst out laughing while Jack's expression went from annoyed to mildly intrigued, he opened his mouth to answer, paused, thought it over, and his mild intrigue turned to dawning horror...
"I... I might have to get back with you on that because I don't know either." Jack cleared his throat in an attempt to hide his nervous voice crack. "Oh Calzones, if he's right and I really am physically losing my mind... Oh Bread Sticks..." He muttered under his breath while holding his head between his hands. "...It explains so much, too much..."
Danny lightly tapped the older teen's shoulder. "Have you ever tried to eat by sticking food through the hole in your cheek?"
Vlad let go of his head and stared at him blankly, seemingly gone through the five stages of grief in five seconds and left so perplexed by Danny's question that it seemed his mind was catching up with the second halfa's words.
But you know what? He hadn't tried before, before, his time was too swamped with hospital trips and robberies to afford the hospital trips to mess around with the odd yet neutral characteristics of his condition. He should fix that while he could, for science.
His index finger idly traced part of the hole to make sure it wasn't bleeding while his other hand picked up and rolled up a slice of pizza, and he stuck the entire slice through the hole, chewed it for a bit and swallowed it.
"I have now, and the experience isn't different enough from eating normally to warrant switching to the hole."
Danny blinked at him, processing what he had just witnessed. "...Okay, I know you said one question but now I have to know; do you have two sets of jaws?!"
"I'll... Also have to look into that." He nervously smiled while screaming internally.

how not to participate in sprints in the middle of the night/early dawn, because at the end, you'll end up typing down a whole short fic...
pre-Kindred Spirit setting; words: <1k; tw: gun
-- -- --
"Are you aware that there is a teen roaming around in your mansion?" Skulker asked.
Naturally he didn't bother to take unnecessary questions, especially regarding any (for him at least) inexplicable and strange human habits and behaviours he couldn't get about the man or about the daily activities, but it buzzed him annoyingly in the past minutes. He couldn't take it any longer without asking about it.
The older hybrid, without lifting his grey head from the adjusting on the computer and implementing the small card, answered. "Yes, I'm aware. Don't care with her."
Skulker examined him, his 'boss' and indeed it seemed like the unfamiliar kid did not deserve any further note, but he couldn't hold back the inquiry. Besides, he had never seen any human child before in the house - or any at all, or, in fact, any other beings, except when the owner of the house wished like that.
"Relative?" Skulker asked. "Your sister's?"
Vlad for a second glanced up from the doing, probably surprised that his employer was updated with the family lines.
"Cecilie's?" The hybrid asked, returning back to the analyses then while hitting eagerly the keyboard in front of him. "No. And I said not to care with her."
Skulker hummed which made Vlad slightly lift his head. But then, the comment got ignored.
After a few silent minutes, when tormentingly only the clicking was heard, Skulker had enough in the usual waiting – until he would get back the card for his suit.
"Is this normal for human children to play hide and seek with guns?" He asked, wonderingly.
The clicking stopped and finally the part-ghost completely looked at him. "What?!"
In a blink of an eye, in a literal flash, the man changed form and phrased through the walls. Skulker invisibly followed him – knowing that even though his presence was constant, the owner of the house did not like him appearing in any rooms beyond the basement.
For a second, Skulker lost sight of the older hybrid but then a chiding hit his metallic ears.
"Cheese logs, child! Where did you get that?"
The young kid stopped running in the middle of the hallway and whirled around just to meet with a just transformed back man with crossed arms.
"Hm?" Vlad glared at the weapon in the small pale hand. "Danielle, that's not a toy."
Skulker made a mental note over the familiar surname. Danielle? The girl was seriously called Danielle? Like… like as Plasmius kept referring to the Ghost Boy? It didn't feel like a coincidence… And maybe it wasn't.
"Well?" Vlad his head to the side seriously,  scowling, expecting an acceptable reason for the misbehaving.
The girl dropped her arm to her side, hiding the gun behind her back but then snapped with her tongue, waving enthusiastically.
"I was only checking around to find some dangerous bad guys! That's the mission of the spies and Maddie – I mean, M – told me to make sure our home is safe and–"
Vlad's palm harshly hit his face and soon he pinched his nose, massaging the bridge of it. Of course, she had to cause trouble with the pet again. Not that he wouldn't have been troubled enough earlier with the scratches on furniture! Now, the problems multiplied with the two of them 'playing around'…
"I see. I shouldn't have let you watch those old DVDs. I should have known your brain is undeveloped yet capable of differing reality from fantasy. But what did I expect? You are a toddler, after all," Vlad sighed and reached ahead his hand. "Give me that gun, Danielle. You can't run around with that, you'll hurt someone. And the least I want is to shoot me in your carelessness."
The girl pouted, moving as it was told but then paused. Her forehead furrowed in confusion. "But… but we are ghosts. We can't get hurt."
"Maybe you can't. But, if you don't mind, dear, I don't wish to learn the difference within our biology by a shot hole in my body, thank you very much. Now, the gun, Danielle," Vlad said, voice stern.
The kid's lips shaped into a thin line when she handed the weapon. Then, as if disappointed in the child, Vlad shook his head.
Apologetically, while staring at her feet, down, Danielle mumbled ahead. "Sorry, Daddy."
Skulker could not hear or follow the rest of the conversation within the two figures, his mind suddenly filled with the dropped label: 'Daddy'. Plasmius had– had a daughter?!
His visits (and claimings for the most recent updates on his metal suit) were frequent, but Skulker was sure the older ghost hybrid had no child a week ago. (Vlad, surely, would have mentioned that.) But beyond doubt, there was one now. A ten, maybe twelve year old human – no, not human. She said 'ghosts', she had to be a similar hybrid then, like Plasmius was, but… How?! From… where?
The girl vibed an odd, near-to uncomfortable aura, in something not natural and he had to know why.
But as the man's words slipped into Skulker's mind – Vlad telling the kid he had business issues to arrange and until then she had to promise to behave – he had to come to see to save this mystery to unfold for a later time.
Skulker knew he couldn't ask Plasmius about this – not yet, at least. But soon, he would get to know everything about this Danielle and the reason why the teen had an eerie similarity in her features to one certain Ghost Boy…

Dropped On Me Like A Fucking Piano!
Characters: (Payday) Dean King, Bain, Tony Montana, Sydney King (not related lmfao), Jimmy
Warnings: Murder, needles
Tumblr media
It was supposed to be a simple heist, and it was!
A simple run through a nightclub, something about Vlad wanting revenge. Hell if King knew what it was about, even if Bain had been telling them about it even on the way to the joint. Dean didn't pay attention, rather focusing on making sure that he had enough ammo for the job.
Now that could've been it, they found the safe, drilled it open and then left with the goods inside, but King had wanted to go and search the rest of the building while they had time in between the cops attacks. He sped through the place, stepping over corpses the entire time, it was a mess of their own design.
Looting and shooting through the place was easy, they'd fought their way through in pairs. It made the endeavour finding the safe they needed to bust open just a little bit faster, Jimmy and Sydney had actually been the ones to find it. It was loudly announced through their comms, enthusiasm filling his voice.
One after the other, the few cops that came in were quickly disposed of with a spray of bullets from Kings AK. Each corner was rounded carefully, even if most of them had nothing but whimpering civilians behind them, those of which were quickly hushed.
After getting through the kitchen and walking into the small gambling den, the heister caught sight of easy cash. Wads of bills were thrown around the table carelessly, it was enough of a lure to make him stop and lower his rifle into one hand so he could begin pocketing the loose money. Over the blaring music and the sound of his heart pounding in his chest, he wasn't able to hear the heavy footsteps that were quickly coming through the hall to the other entrance.
King only noticed the hulking figure in the doorway by the time it was too late, his eyes slowly went up to catch sight of the visor, a skull painted over the entire face.
Fucking dozer.
In a blind panic, he desperately tried to pull his gun up to start shooting. By the time he'd even brought the barrel up to his thigh however, the special had already racked his shotgun and taken aim at his chest. In a split second- he fired, the blast ringing out and reaching the others immediately as pellets flew.
Those very pellets went straight into the criminals vest, the force of them knocking him backwards and back into the kitchen, where he slammed against an oven with a loud grunt. Not even a second after, he could hear crackling through his earpiece, accompanied by a panicked Bain shouting out.
"King needs help, pronto!"
It felt as if flames were ripping through Kings chest while he sat there, the act of breathing alone was impossible. It was as if his lungs had tightened, all attempts at breathing only induced more agonizing pain to sear through his being. In other words, he got the wind knocked out of him. He was lucky that it hadn't completely ripped through him and turned his insides into swiss cheese, although that did seem preferable due to the obvious.
"Ones down," The dozer spoke through his own earpiece, "I don't know where the others are th-" Sudden shrieking made him go quiet and turn to look at the source, the source being Kings favorite coked up maniac, and his savior. Jimmy cackled out as he took aim at the visor that guarded the juggernauts soft head with his machine guns, just before letting a hail of bullets fly out of the gun and directly into that same visor.
There was shouting from both parties, Jimmy was incoherently throwing curses at the enemy while the dozer screamed out curses.. at the enemy, more so in fear than anything, which was a shock to hear, but it wasn't long before only one of them continued to be able to shout. As the dozers visor cracked and shattered, the lead pierced his skull and put him down.
His body fell onto the floor with a loud thud and clang, giving King a sense of relief as he turned to meet Jimmy's masked gaze. "Fuckin' hell, you look like shit, mate!" He panted out, "You're not gonna die on me are you?"
Silence followed, the only noise being the sounds of King desperately trying to bring air into his lungs and failing, which was noticed by Jimmy quickly. "Thats... HEY! ARE YOU GONNA FUCKING DIE?!" The cokehead screamed, as if King couldn't hear him at a normal volume.
"H...urt.." King finally managed to wheeze out, it took Jimmy a few seconds to understand him before nodding. "YEAH, I KINDA GOT THAT-"
"D'fucks goin' on?!" Scarface shouted, entering the kitchen, eyes widening as he caught sight of the grizzly scene. Sydney followed in after him, breathing in sharply as she too looked around. There was a second of quiet as Sydney and Tony put together the pieces as to what happened, the dead dozer, the loose cash in Kings pockets. Christ. "Fuck me- King, are jou with us?"
Since Kings head could turn to Tony, that gave him the sign he needed that he was still alive. "Fuck, okay, I got something for jou." He mumbled, reaching into his suits breast pocket and taking out his injector, filled with adrenaline. Everyone had seen him use it a dozen times, but there was only one other person he'd used it on- and that had been Jacket. That had been a desperate situation, much like this one.
Tony set down his rifle to use both gloved hands, one pulled down Kings collar further so he could inject him, and the other hand did. The needle sunk into his pec, and the adrenaline was shot straight into him, causing his eyes to open wide and air to flow into his lungs once more. He jolted forward which forced Tony's hands back, the injector still stabbed into him.
His breathing was uneven and heavy, almost panicked. Tony grabbed onto his shoulder, holding him in place. "Give it a bit, 'dat rush is like a fuckin' truck, mane." He explained, sitting there with King as he tried to pull himself together. Pain seemed to be non-existent, his hands shook violently, Jesus, he'd felt adrenaline before but nothing this severe and sudden.
Moments ticked by, each valuable second before the next assault made Sydney and Jimmy check the entrances just in case there were any other specials or cops coming towards them. In any case, there were none, which gave King all the time needed to get himself under control. He looked down at the injector, still in his flesh. His right hand reached up and pulled it out, before passing it back to the kingpin. "Jou good?"
King nodded, starting to get up while grabbing his AK off of the floor. "I'm good.." He confirmed, adjusting his mask with one hand. His wounds would still have to be looked at and tended to after the heist, but for now he needed to fight.
Convenient timing, as Bain once again chimed in through their comms.
"You got some bad cops coming in, get ready!"
"TOOK THOSE PIGGYS LONG ENOUGH!" Jimmy laughed, reloading his akimbo smgs before running out of the kitchen. "LETS FUCKING GO LADS!" He called out in the distance, his footsteps growing quieter as the music overtook it. King pulled the magazine out of his AK to check the amount of ammo he had left, enough was the answer. Sydney left the room, muttering something about "don't get fucked up again" as she did.
Tony turned to look at the dead dozer and back at King, only giving him a nod before walking out himself. Now alone, King slid the magazine back in and primed the rifle. It was time to get even with the bastards, he'd take them all down if he could. He could already hear the shouting from the incoming swat, to one another and at his fellow heisters before the firefight, as much as he wanted to sit down and let himself rest for a bit, he knew he couldn't.
Knowing that, he took hold of his AK in both hands and rushed out to join the others in their shootout with the police. They weren't able to kill him, not yet. Maybe in the future they could, but not now.
Not when they were fucking with the Payday gang.

Main AU Story
Some backstory for the timeline. This blog has everything that happened in the series canon to the original up until the "Masters Of All Time" episode. (Spoilers Ahead for a cartoon that's gone off the air for 15 years, (Danny Phantom is a good show and I would highly recommend it even after all this time.)) The trio, Danny Fenton, Sam Manson, and Tucker Foley are hanging out at the Nasty Burger. Danny's sister, Jazz runs to the table to warn Danny that they should leave now. Danny is confused only to be met with the Fenton parents, Jack and Maddie, who are both dressed up in 80's fashion for a 80's themed party. Jack and Maddie in their typical loving, but oblivious way, embarrass Danny causing him to want to leave the Nasty burger with his friends. Only to be met with his arch nemesis Vlad. He comments that he's waiting for the insult toward Jack or a lame come on about Maddie, to which, Vlad tells him that here's not their to joke around before his strength fades and he falls to his knees and he reverts back to human form and it is revealed that he's come down with another case of ecto-acne that was more lethal than when he had first gotten it in college. Danny is silent, while his friends add fuel to a low burning flame in the form of asking, "Why would Danny help you?"
In which a still sickly Vlad takes the opportunity to reply with "I thought you'd never ask." as he throws a Vladco smoke grenade that afflicts Sam and Tucker with the same lethal strain of ecto-acne he has, before he himself passes out. Danny turns back to human, and tries to wake Vlad up and get him to undo this.
Then he hears his parents leaving the Nasty Burger to see Sam, Tucker and Vlad sick... and of course they have to go to the one place on Earth who can handle this. Danny is hoping for them to be contained and treated at the hospital, however they are taken to Fenton Works. Since for 20 years since the incident that caused Vlad to be hospitalized. Jack and Maddie worked on a way to cure it, and never got to see Vlad of his aliment since he had left the hospital without his old friends help.
Danny gets the bright idea of going to Clockwork to stop Vlad from getting his ghost powers to begin with, to which Clockwork tells him that it's a horrible idea. Danny insists that this is the only choice he has. Clockwork tells him he has more choices but allows it since he knows that Danny will learn his lesson from all this. Danny finds the flyer, and gets to the proto-portal incident to make sure that Vlad is out of the way when it hits considering his mission is accomplished. However Danny doesn't stay long enough to see the effect of what happened due to his meddling, until he is brought to the present, seeing that the quarantine tent is gone, only to see that also the large Fenton Works sign is missing from his home.
Danny goes into investigate the house in his human form, only to be met with an ecto-acne covered Jack Fenton, bitter and lonely due to the incident in Wisconsin. Jack is on the offensive as the other mentioned his condition and mentions about how he knew about the incident that happened 20 years ago that made Jack the halfa he is that day. Jack initiates the fight, while Danny is getting his butt handed to him as he doesn't want to hurt his alternate version of his dad, eventually learning the whole truth of what happened after he had gotten Vlad out of the way and caused him to get hit in the incident instead. Jack is enraged and thinking that Danny's lying to him to mess with his head, and tosses him out of the building.
Danny gets hit into the Amity Park billboard, then hides using his invisibility now even more determined to get to Clockwork to go back and fix this mess, knowing that his dad doesn't have a ghost portal, he has to go to Wisconsin and find his mom in hopes that she does.
Eventually, Danny tired from the cross country flight from Amity Park, he turns back into his human form and knocks on the door using the cheese wedge shaped door knocker on the Dairy King castle door. The married couple answer the door. Vlad gives a greeting that gives off the impression that he's had enough of people coming to his home asking for free samples, before Danny simply says mom before falling to his hands and knees weakly.
Then Danny is treated to a full dairy banquet as the two ask him where he came from and where his parents are, to which Danny says that they were missing due to an accident, which isn't entirely untrue from where Danny is standing, but Vlad and Maddie take it that Danny is a potentially orphaned child, and Maddie offers to anything like offering him a place to stay to which Vlad is complimenting his lovely wife on her sweet kindness and generosity going in for a kiss, before Danny stops it and then asks if either of them might have a a ghost portal. Maddie laughs it off explaining that it would be silly to think they'd have anything like that, but then quickly looks nervous, while Vlad goes on to explain that they do not talk about ghosts in this house. Danny points out the obvious ghost tech, while Maddie tries to explain it away saying that it's not ghost tech and that it's cleaning equipment, to which Vlad apologizes for his acquisition and they kiss to make up in front of a disgusted Danny.
Later in the night, Danny searches nearly every part of the house for the lab, getting frustrated before looking down further in the depths of the castle finding a lab. He finally finds Maddie's lab, only to be ambushed by Maddie sucking him into the Maddie Weasel, waking up to see his mom looming over him, where he's strapped to a dissection table.
Maddie, revealing that Danny could scream all he wants since the lab is sound proof, and that it has to be other wise her Dairy King husband Vlad would find out, and then she demands to know who Danny is, to which he explains she's her son, with Jack Fenton, then she explains that Jack blamed her for the accident and that Vlad told her so. Danny tells her that Vlad's lying because Jack never blamed her for the accident, and that he still loves her.
Only for seconds later, Jack comes in explaining that he never stopped loving her and the only reason why he isolated himself was because he thought she wouldn't accept the other half of him. Jack explains that he had to come in person because of the wallet that Danny had left behind showing their alternate life where they are married with two kids. It brings a tear to Maddie's eyes and she frees Danny and the two of them give their alternate son a hug.
Maddie tells Danny that he should go to clockwork to head toward his own time, opening the ghost portal for him, only for Vlad to enter the seen with the Ghost foamer demanding to know why Danny is there if he belongs in another universe.
Maddie tries to explain that it wasn't what it looks like, only for Jack to go ghost himself and explain that it was exactly what it looked like, Vlad was jealous that he was always destined to be happy with Maddie with two children and he only got what he wanted because he deceived you into getting his own way. Jack gets blasted with the foamer and getting stuck to the wall, while Danny jumps into the fight avoiding every blast from the foamer, only for Maddie to get by a stray shot in getting stuck to the computer. Vlad apologizing, only for Danny to throw a ghost ray at Vlad, in defense of his alternate mother. Vlad getting upset with the fact that Danny's calling Maddie Mom, and blasts Danny again, only for him to get his and land on the dissection table that activates the shackles and his wrists and ankles are bound once again.
Vlad wanting to keep his life the way it is now, he starts to tell Danny is no longer welcome and turns on the laser and says he's going to have to leave 'molecule by molecule. Jack slams Vlad out of way and goes to turn off the machine, Vlad getting up and pushing him out of the way and pulling off the laser head and aiming it at Jack who puts up a shield and gets blown by a minor explosion that knocks him out on the floor next to the ghost portal.
Maddie furious in a fit of rage assuming that Jack is dead as he is collapsed on the floor, tells Vlad off for making her waste her life with him, to which he smugly comes back with the fact that he's still her husband, only to have Maddie toss him in the ghost zone through the portal, where Vlad is greeted with a not so friendly group of ghosts.
Maddie tells him to hurry as the portal is overloading, and that he needs to get to clockwork since he should help fix this mess and prevent it from ever happening. Jack waking up from the alarms and rushes to Maddie and shields her with his intangibility so she'd be safe through the second minor explosion to have happened near the portal. Danny rushes through the portal, and rushes through the ghost zone, not seeing the alternate Vlad getting his ass practically handed to him by ghosts from all sides.
Danny explains to Clockwork he needs to go back and fix this mess, only for Clockwork to explain that the problem won't be fixed in the past and that it needs to be fixed in the present to which he says that he'll reset it to before he meddled in the first place, showing him the solution to the problem seeing that the impurities were from a can of diet cola, Danny goes home armed with the knowledge to help his friends and his archenemy.
Only for Danny, a few minutes later to come into Clockwork's lair, saying that he needs to go back and time and fix the mess he made. Clockwork instead, of showing Danny what he would need to fix the mistake in the present as the original Danny had just left his domain a few minutes ago, explains to Danny that he can't let him go back in time to fix it as he's already caused irreparable damage to the time stream, and that he can't go back home.
Danny sinks to his knees, he held his hands in his face trying to keep himself from crying, but Clockwork looked down at the boy feeling bad for him, and after the observants have told him, Danny was his responsibility now and that includes any version of Danny. Clockwork explains that he can return to the timeline he had created, then explains that Sam and Tucker still exist however they never became friends due to Danny's non-existence, and that he has faith that he can put this timeline on the right track for his own sake.
Maddie is working on fixing her ghost portal, which was minor damages which were easily fixed since Jack was also helping out being more attentive than he was in college. Soon getting the computers cleaned off an operational, while Danny tries to look on the bright side, leaving Clockwork's lair.
Danny heads toward the direction of Maddie's portal, only to be blasted at by a red beam of energy, he looked to see that Vlad had gotten ghost powers again, and his animosity was focused more on Danny, the two fought, before Danny won, knocking him out and forcing him to turn back into his human form. Danny huffed and brought him through his mother's portal throwing Vlad in first before flying through himself and explaining the situation to his alternate parents to which they were happy to take them in, and also sorry for the mess that had happened.
Eventually, the newly formed halfa Vlad wakes up in his mansion with the lab stripped of all it's anti-ghost tech, no portal to be found, and a new formed burning anger in his heart. While a newly cured Jack Fenton, a recently divorced and remarried Maddie with their alternate timeline son Danny, rebuild the live that should have been in Jack's place of residence. Danny knowing that he doesn't have to keep his ghost powers a secret from his family is happy for the safety of his home, while also going to have to enroll in Casper High and only keeping his ghost powers a secret from anyone else not in his family so he knows for a fact who his real friends are...
And even if this town had an influx of ghosts before, Danny Phantom was happy to help his dad learn the ropes of what to do and what not to do while ghost fighting even if his dad has pretty bad aim and a poor start before, Jack is still happy to bond with his alternate timeline son.
