Hunting
Damian and Danny are fraternal twins. Both are darker skinned, but Damian got more of Talia’s features while Danny had more of Bruce’s. Ignoring how they got separated and how Danny got to the Fentons, his exposure to ectoplasm, the accident, and ghostliness leeched his skin color to appear white/pale.
Later in Gotham he is seen by one of the Bats while civilian and they are concerned about the Bruce clone. Especially because they are covered in blood (not that they know it isn’t Danny’s blood).
Danny however is on a hunt. The GIW took Ellie and he had hit his limit with kindness or holding back. He may be rusty (he really didn’t get to use his training against the ghosts, they fought too different) but he didn’t forget his League training. He was getting back into shape though after dealing with the minor targets. It’s unfortunate that he needed to go to Gotham since he had no wish to see his bio father and twin but he would go through Hell to get Ellie back.

DpxDC #5
Ancient royal family misunderstanding.
Danny gets two obsessions due to being a halfa, which is space and protection. due to misunderstandings people think that Danny is two different ghosts: the ancient of protection and the ancient of space.
people think that the ancient of protection and the ancient of space are married which is why they are so interchangeable when stories are going around.
This gets even worse when Dan and Ellie are de aged and are called Danny's children. which means the rumors are that they've just had kids. I have made Ellie the future ancient of chaos and Dan the future ancient of Destruction. which just means the ghost King has just gotten two heirs which are chaos and destruction.
This ends up with this Justice League trying to get involved which is when they get human Danny with a summoning Circle.
Danny has some Cryptid features and definitely has the vibe of something is not right with this person even in human form so they believe that Danny has just shapeshifted. The entire time that Danny is with the Justice League they are trying to figure out whether they have summoned the ancient of space or the ancient of protection.
it'd be funny if they didn't know whether protection or space is the ghost King. Misunderstanding gets worse when they ask about the kids and after Danny has assessed that they are not threats he starts gushing about how well Dan and Dani are doing.
I think that they would later find out Danny is still technically human and start thinking that the ghost King is turning this human into his Immortal consort and it starts being a question of whether they're doing this willingly or not, whether they know what is happening or whether they're tricked. Because of the original misunderstanding they never put two and two together that Danny is both space and protection.

:) I’m backkkk you all thought you could get rid of me
🛕Pharaoh Tucker with his “Wifes” Sam and Danny🛕
Yes I’m bringing attention to this like why is nobody talking about this????
Now let’s get into the main plot so Danny, Sam and Tucker have to GO and fast ( GIW or bad Fenton au either or. !!!Bonus points!!! If Danny got hurt and than it would make this so much funnier y’all get what I mean in a sec) and they all go to the ghost zone where they meet up with clockwork and he tells them that one of Tuckers earlier reincarnation made a place so in the future he’s good even if he doesn’t remember it so clockwork brings them to what looks like an ancient Egyptian empire with the civilians and the people who live there as the people who died in the past {sorry if this is a bit hard to read I am very tired} and they are brought to the place where clockwork just casually reveals that Tucker is the pharaoh ie: The King and Sam, Tucker and Danny take this very well for them this is a safe place for them to heal and live with the added bonus of helping with Danny’s obsessions (Protection and Space) and after a bit they gain the affection of the people and the…Protection of the people??? Because for the people they see that one of their queen (Danny) was hurt before the royals came here so they get a bit protective and for a bit of information here’s the main jobs of the trio
Tucker taking care of the rules and doing the main running of the empire
Sam takes care of the army and gardens of the empire ( making sure they have enough food and such )
Danny takes care of the people (who grown the most fond of ) and such
So you can see what I’m going for with this now here’s where the JL comes in so the empire was NOT in the ghost zone it is in its own little world but somehow the JL gets tipped off about a triving empire that NOBODY has made contact with so a group ( Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the flash, green lantern you know the works) goes to make contact and hopefully make allies with them so they go and are taken aback a bit by how much this place is triving and what to meet the people who made this happen so what the JL was expecting was a lest a adult but instead they got what looked like a 16-17 with what looked like two people the same aged sitting next to him on either side (!!!EXRA BONUS POINTS!!! If one of the supers helped Danny before the meeting) and someone makes the dumb decision to ask them where are the REAL rulers and the guards in the room ( who I forgot to mention ) get mad at them and become hostile to them and Sam has to clam them down and that’s all for the plot at the moment
Now on to the details let’s start with tucker I’m thinking about this
Tumblr media
( just instead of blue it’s red) and for a head piece I’m thinking the good old classic 
Tumblr media
It just fits
Now for Sam I’m thinking is for her outfit
Tumblr media
But in darker colors because she’s SAM and for a head piece I’m thinking something like this
Tumblr media
Nothing to big because she has to train the army and she’s outside a lot so if it’s anything to big I think it will just be annoying
For Danny this
Tumblr media
Mixed with this
Tumblr media
Because ye and for his hair piece I’m braining
Tumblr media
This I think it looks neat
Now that’s all from me byeee

Ok so I saw someone make a DCxDP prompt post about trans Danny working in a cafe or coffee shop? Idk but anyway! He had Dani with him as his kid and eventually caught the eye of Jason/ red hood right! So I made one based off of that
So imagine Danny, wanting to take a break from being king and what not sees this smoke filled city and goes “hmm yess I love it!” And settles in the Bowery, essentially making it his new haunt.
He runs a cute little cafe called C&R (coffee and room) Danny still having a his obsession with space and protection, but it’s aimed more towards young adults and kids (but extends to kids he dubs as his even if they’re like 40)
He takes in basically any kid that need a place or someplace to stay, his only rule is if he takes you in you work the cafe with him and he pays for their time (him being the ghost king, he has a LOT of money)
So I imagine his cafe/ apartment set up like, the cafe as the main floor and then you take stairs up into the living room and to the left is the dinning, to the right is the kitchen. Keeping right there’s a hallway the leads to Danny bedroom with an en suite, there’s also a spare/ guest bath in the hall. Now going left you get to the bedrooms and bath for the kids, at the right end of the hall you have 4 single dorm style bedrooms and on the left you got 5 family or friend rooms each with two bunks or a bunk and a bed.
All together Danny can house up to 19 kids if he wants, so that being said when he takes in these street or abused kids he grows attached and eventually ends up adopting or fostering them, and they all ADORE Danny; view him as their Dad/ brother/ uncle.
Now we get to the dead on main part!
So one of Danny kids mentioned to one of their friends, who mentioned to their friend, who told on of Jason’s ally kids that there was a middle aged mad taking in kids and making them work for him. Obviously this man is hearing red flags and goes to investigate, thing is he can tell as soon as he steps food in the Bowery that he’s being watched.
Imagine his surprise to find a man around his age (25? 27?) who is good looking as fuck, with the same hair style and loved/ takes care of street kids! This mad checks damn near all his boxes.
So Danny invites Red Hood inside to talk and grab a bite (he’s smitten already) he’s asks his kid Rory to bring up some cookies and drink please!
Now while they’re up and talking Danny hears a scuffle downstairs and immediately going to check, he finds some men harassing one if his foster daughters (use to be a working girl.)
Now there’re some rules for Danny cafe
Be polite and respectful to staff
Don’t matter who you are or what you do, no fighting in the store
Kids take priority and are under Danny’s protection
Any rule broken above will result in Danny (6’4 build like a brick house) beating you’re ass
So with that all down these guys broke pretty much the only rules he has, so while other customers and red hood watch Danny fucking knee guts them and tosses them out with warnings of disembowelment if they come back.
And that’s pretty much all I’ve got so far
Danny with his kids and Jason with his they can then become one big happy family!

DPxDC: Jarro Adopts an Alien
Ok, so Danny has a space obsession and a protection obsession (I headcanon that as a halfa, Danny has two obsessions like all Halfas do which makes them unique to other ghosts.) and so while he can get his fill protecting people in Amity, he struggles with his space obsession. Sure, he can look up everything he can about space and the stars on the internet. He can stay up until 2 am looking at the stars (who needs sleep? He’s a ghost, he can go days, or even weeks without sleep if he wants, same with a lack of air or food.) but it’s just not enough. He craves to learn more, see more. Just as Dani gets that itch to travel, Danny wonders. What would it be like to see the stars up close? Are they really as hot as a dragons fire breath? Hotter!? Or maybe they are so hot they are cold. What does it look like to see plasma dancing across the surface, or touch the gasses of Jupiter? Does Pluto have ice caves like the far frozen? How many planets are actually out there? What about Mars. There’s a whole species living there with a language and culture Danny can’t even fathom! Oh what he wouldn’t give to talk with martian manhunter or Superman. 
And what’s stopping him from exploring this? He can fly. He doesn’t need air. He can go intangible if it gets too hot and he’s practically immune to the cold. He wants to touch a space rock! See if they are smooth because there is no wind or earth to rub against them and erode the surface. He wants to see what planets they come from. What minerals they might have. He wants to know if there are currents in space. All of these things are right there just above the atmosphere. Surely it couldn’t hurt to take a quick peek. So he does. During a particularly bad day Danny flies as fast as he can until the earth’s gravity looses its effects. Until his hair is floating as of it’s in water even more than normal. Until he can feel when breathing no longer became a choice (still not necessary though). And it…was beautiful. To be surrounded by space. To see the earth like this. Pictures just didn’t do it Justice. He flew across the solar system and as he passed planets, he longed to fly through them. To search every crevice and learn their secrets. But he had a bigger prize in mind at the moment. The crown jewel of their universe. The closest star he could find. The sun. 
Danny was mesmerized. The plasma really did dance across the surface. Like a never ending performance of science and beauty. There were sparks that few in arcs. Danny flew down and played in them, making a game to see how many he could fly under. His ghost core purred in delight. His obsession had never been more satisfied. He spent hours out there. Just exploring what his solar system had to offer. So when he returned? He couldn’t just forget. Pictures and online science theories had nothing on the real thing. He wanted to explore some more. So he did. Every night he would go out and explore the cosmos. Flying from planet to planet. (Either the Martians were still around and Danny made friends with them, even learning their language, or he just looks at their ruins to learn as much as he can). And with both obsessions now being filled, Danny is more settled. More confident. And he can focus better. Everyone notices the change, even his teachers. They just think that he’s paying more attention to his education now. He’s even better during his ghost fights. 
But Danny can fly awfully fast. And he soaks up information even faster. Soon his trips take longer and longer as he flies further out. Sometimes he can barely make it back in time for school. And he can't go every night. Sometimes the ghosts won’t wait for daytime so he has to make sure the town will be safe in his absence. Although he’s been able to take more trips ever since Valerie joined the vigilante ranks. But still, he’s getting farther and farther from earth each night. Until one day he’s visited every planet, every star, every comet or debris in their solar system. Which would be fine. He could deal with that if that was all there was. But it wasn’t. Danny saw the stars just out of reach. He saw places the Milky Way was leaning towards. He saw just the barest hints of new solar systems with new planets and stars. And he knew of legends from lanterns that they had posted online. Heard tales from some scientists that have made better telescopes. And his core itches. It aches to know more. See more. Yet he can't go further. And this puts him in a sort of depression. Suddenly he’s back to his old self. Lagging behind. Distracted. Zoning out. Crashing into a few more buildings during ghost attacks. Yet he tries so hard to be satisfied with what he has. He can still fulfill his obsession…it’s just more like chewing on a granola bar rather than eating a decent meal. He’s almost becoming lethargic. 
So one day he goes to Frostbite to see if there’s anything he can do to lessen the effects. But the yeti just takes one look at him and gives him the infimap. And suddenly Danny is in a whole new universe in seconds. The planets are purple. The stars are blue. He’s pretty sure there are furry blob-like creatures living on one of those planets. And suddenly he gets that itch, but holding the infimap, he knows he had time, so he lets himself go. 
And for a while it’s good. great even. Since he can’t keep asking the yetis for the infimap, he goes over to Wulf to see if he’s up for an adventure. Most of the time he is and they go exploring the galaxies together. And then Wulf had the genius idea of teaching Danny how to make portals. It took a long time but soon, he could concentrate the surrounding ectoplasm enough to weaken it and pull. It took a while since Danny didn’t have ecto claws and would have to use his pure will. But this would allow him to follow his obsession anytime, anywhere. So it was only a matter of time. And once he figured it out? It was like something was unlocked. Danny had never before understood how Ellie could travel so much. But now he did. That feeling when you discover something new. When you add to your reservoir of knowledge. When the patterns in the universe just click. There is nothing Danny could compare it to. And to explore that whenever he wanted? It was so freeing. While Wulf sometimes still joined Danny’s adventures, Danny did most of his explorations by himself. 
He meets various planets and aliens. So many different cultures. He learns thousands of languages. Tries all kinds of foods (and it’s a good thing his ghost self has an iron stomach and he’s basically poison resistant.) even found a whole comet where blood blossoms grew. (Which he most definitely avoided). And wasn’t that fascinating? To find out they were from space. 
And then during his travels one day he met a space alien starfish. 
It was actually a funny story. A meteor shower was about to attack a planet of talking blue monkey creatures with 4 arms. Danny immediately started diverting them and was soon joined by some lantern corps (which his inner fanboy wanted to talk to so bad.). And a tiny starfish in a…Robin uniform? Oh and the starfish could apparently do martial arts which was interesting to watch him karate chop a meteor. He could also talk directly into Danny’s head which the halfa found more interesting. So they got to talking and apparently his name was Jarro. He seemed to be helping the lantern corps as a ‘proxy from earth’ to make better use of his skills. 
Danny would run into Jarro a few more times. Sometimes he was with Lanterns and sometimes he would just be exploring the galaxies. They started forming a pretty strong friendship and Danny would start seeking out the starfish alien to travel with him. He knew all kinds of space facts. Apparently he had an eidetic memory. When they explored, sometimes Jarro would just stick to part of Danny. Wrapped around his arm, his waist, sometimes just sticking to his back like a strange backpack. But they always had fun.
So Danny was happy. He could fulfill both obsessions and got a space pal. Everything was great!
Until the GIW caught him. 
It would probably be the worst day of his life.  There was an explosion in the lab. Something set up by them after they realized Danny frequented that place often. So they set a trap and blew it up. Thankfully, Jazz was at college during this but both his parents were home. When the explosion went off, Danny had tried putting a Barrier around them all. It took everything he had to maintain it. That’s how they found out he was phantom. Danny had a few moments where his parents said they accepted him but he couldn’t hold the barrier for long. His parents said that they loved him and then everything went green. He woke up in a lab, tired and injured. His only saving grace being that he remained in phantom form. And he was determined to remain so. 
Danny’s time at the GIW was a haze but eventually, he managed to escape. Bleeding, and tired, and still recovering from the burns in the explosion, Danny made a portal straight to Amity. Only when he got there, it was a ghost town. Streets were empty, buildings were boarded up. Even the Nasty Burger was deserted. As for his house, there was nothing but a crater left and some scattered debris. Danny looked everywhere but there was no one. No Jazz. No Sam. No Tucker. No one. and he was tired. And everything hurt, and he needed a friend. Someone he could trust. So in a daze he made a portal and tried to just project safe. Safe safe safe. Somewhere he knew he would be protected. And so Jarro got a surprise when his space buddy suddenly popped out of a green portal, bleeding green and clearly passed out. He didn't know what to do. He didn’t know how to help him. But Jarro knew someone who would. 
So with a speed never before seen from a tiny starfish, he flew to earth. Bringing his friend straight to his father. Because surely batman could help!
And with his appearance, the green blood, the knowledge of space facts. The lack of wanting to talk about where he came from (and the nightmares crying out for his parents). This is how the bats became convinced that Jarro brought them an injured alien.

Even with all Danny’s shenanigans and being anti police/government/bigotry etc there are still things he holds sacred.
No matter how much he wants to Danny refuses to steal space rocks, NASA memorabilia or interfere in any way that could potentially interfere with a planed space flight.
Danny loves space but refuses to have others suffer just so he can be happy. Danny leaves objects that make his core sing behind because he wants everyone to enjoy them and, in a sense, he wants to protect their dreams of one day being an astronaut. Because no one was around to protect his.
If ghosts are declared legally neither sentient nor sapient >.>
Then? LEGALLY? Anything they do? They can't be held responsible for. After all, they don't know any better.
Danny should start a harrassment campaign. Clear Activist actions. Publicly. Loudly. And with the world watching. Wear it on a tee-shirt. Keep repeating it.
"I'm not legally sentient or sapient. Not MY decision, this is what YOU decided."
Openly steal from the rich. Like, OPENLY and on a petty level. Sweep wall street. Hit major companies for food and water and give it too people. Kick presidential candidates in the balls. Cause expensive but not life treating inconvenience to the world.
You can't be a criminal, after all.
It's literally the Jesus approach. "Turn the other cheek". If you strike me AGAIN, you are acknowledging me as an equal. So which is it, oppressors? Am I less then you and free to rebel, or am I equal and capable of being held accountable?
Charm campaign with his enemies money. End world hunger. Take their wealth. Chaos and Discord. No, sorry, you CAN NOT negotiate with me! I'm INCAPABLE remember?
Neither sentient nor sapient!
Shame. Better fix that! Hey? Who's yacht was this? YEET! Guess it doesn't matter now! It's in ORBIT! Have a GREAT daaaay~☆

So you know how Danny is head cannoned to have two obsessions
Protection and Space
So what if Dani also had two obsessions
I haven’t watched the show, but to my understanding, she immediately went off and started traveling the world, so I would assume that her main obsession would be exploration.
But for her second obsession with would be culture.
But to my understanding, there’s a lot to explore about culture, like history, food, combat, fashion, religion, etc.
This gives any content creator a lot of opportunities to explore how Danis travels affected her political view and world view, in comparison to Danny, who probably didn’t leave the USA (at least not that I know of) she would have a better understanding of what people wanted and need to be happy, who would make her a better ruler of the Ghost zone than Danny would be.
This also gives a lot of crossover opportunities.
For example, what if Dani ended up joining the League of Assassins (bc when has a Fenton actually cared about their wellbeing?) and she meets Jason, Damian, Talia, Cass(?)
To them? She would be a major enigma. A mysterious girl that wants to joins the LOA, has a strange connection with the pits and takes every opportunity to learn different styles of combat? They needed to figure her out immediately.
Unfortunately, she vanished before they could investigate her, and that put a pause on the investigation.
Years later, she and her (never mentioned before) brother randomly appear in Gotham with fake names, traumatic backstory and the Wayne family adoption traits.
Any type of media is welcomed as long as you tag and comment :)))

If you're still accepting prompts Jason/ Jazz Hozier's Real People Do
Cate comes out with curly red hair, bright teal eyes, and the tiniest, prettiest core that Jazz has ever seen. Jason was worried about that, she knows. The twins inherited cores from Danny, even if they haven’t shown any signs of ghostly power yet; of course Jason was worried. 
Danny’s core is a space core, is the thing, and Misty and Jackson’s are just the same. Misty is burning stars and Jackson is icy vacuum, and they’re both as clear and bright as his full-grown galaxy is. Much smaller, obviously, but still clear and bright and strong. They’re too young for Obsessions, assuming they’re even going to end up with Obsessions at all, but they very definitely have cores. And Jazz is just a little bit liminal herself, but so is Sam, so who knows what effects that might’ve had in-utero. 
And Jason, of course . . . 
Jason’s core isn’t like Danny’s; isn’t so pure of purpose and Protection. Jason’s core is full of anger and grief and so, so much longing. It's a light core at the heart of itself, but it's been twisted and refracted and cracked. The kind of light core where someone shot out a streetlight and left behind nothing but a fitfully-sparking empty socket and cold iron. Jazz knows it was worse, once–knows Vengeance was twisted through his Obsession, warping and overwhelming it, and the light of his core wasn't even sparking–but that doesn't mean it's in good condition now. 
So he was worried, she knows. 
But Jason's Obsession is Family–the same thing that saved him and killed him and saved him again–so Jazz wasn't worried like he's been. 
“Told you so,” she says, smiling tiredly at him from her Far Frozen infirmary bed. She’s exhausted and stressed and in pain and hasn’t slept in two days, but it was worth it. Jason doesn’t look away from Cate where she’s swaddled and nestled asleep in his arms, which Jazz doesn’t blame him for. She’s never seen anything as beautiful as Cate. Or anything as adorable. Or anything as terrifying. 
Her core is a warm little light inside her, though, bright and pretty and sweet, with no twisting or refraction or cracks in it at all. 
“You did,” Jason agrees, swallowing roughly, and Jazz smiles wider.

Danny's obsession isn't protection its Space. The only reason he is a hero for his town is that he feels responsible for the portal opening and allowing ghosts to come through. Also instead of being the ghost king he is a baby ancient, the ancient of Space. The reason all the other ancients and other powerful ghost fought him was to train him up. To them there was nothing malicious about their attacks. This why also Clockwork has taken such an interest in him, Time and Space are two concepts that go well or work together.
This is an amazing take
If danny ever found out that the reason he got attacked by ghosts everyday is because they wanted to train him, he'd just be soooooo done with everything and everyone

Obsessions and how they Break
One of the recurring themes in the Danny Phantom fandom is that ghosts have Obsessions. This is pretty firmly upheld by canon, and it's an interesting thing to explore, with a myriad of different interpretations.
Another thing that tends to come up relatively often is something called 'Ending' that is, the death of a ghost. A cessation of existence. Arguably, this is a fate worse than death, since at least in the Danny Phantom universe we have evidence of an afterlife.
Something that's been on my mind a lot recently is what causes an Ending. What can kill a ghost?
Obviously, there's the fic-standard things. Core damage, injuries bad enough that they're beyond the ghost's ability to heal... things like that.
But what about Obsessions? What about a ghost that is forbidden or prevented in some manner from fulfilling it? What about a ghost that is incapable for some reason of fulfilling their Obsession?
Obviously this would cause some kind of core damage, and mental issues to say the least, however, I submit that those are two of the better results. Those can be healed from relatively quickly and easily. (Relatively.)
The worst result is something called a Broken Obsession. An Obsession that's gone unfulfilled for so long, or that's been prevented from being fulfilled so firmly, that it inverted. Changed, radically, usually in a more negative or self destructive direction than the Obsession originally pointed.
A clear example of this would be Dan Phantom, or Dark Danny.
It is widely accepted that Danny has a Protection Obsession. (Or Space, or both, but we're focusing on Protection for the moment.) When Danny's family and friends died, because of him, Danny's Obsession Broke. No longer was he a Protection spirit. How could he be, when he might as well have killed them all himself? (This is his line of thought.)
His Obsession Broke. Inverted. And became Suffering. This is why he suffered so badly that he was willing to allow Vlad to rip out his emotions. Not to say that grief isn't awful and horrible, and a kind of suffering unique to itself, but Danny's Obsession would dwell on it. It became the only thing he could think about. He would dream it every night, replaying it over and over again.
When Vlad agreed to rip out his emotions, and Danny's ghost half ripped out Vlad's ghost half, Vlad's Obsession, something selfish and self-centered, combined with the Suffering of Danny's ghost half, and refused to allow itself to suffer any longer.
The Obsession warped and twisted again, and the Suffering that had been self-directed became directed outwardly. Suffering became Shared Suffering, and everyone would feel the pain he felt.
Because the Breaking of an Obsession tends to focus the Obsession more inward, it is one of the more dangerous of the symptoms of a ghost on the road to Ending.

Danny with a space and protection obsession.
He died a kid who always wanted to touch the stars,died a kid who last heard screaming as he was fried alive.Protection becamehis main obsessions but his love for space turned into a secondsry one,one that doesnt need to be fulfilled but it would be so much better if it was.
He wants to fly into space,away from all his problems,and lose himself in the star filled void,but he also wants to keep Amity safe.And keeping it safe is a need.He has to fulfill it,he has to.His core aches at the want for two things that cant both be.He cannot get lost in endless galaxies and still protect Amity.
The best he can do is little trips,watching the stars from as high as he dare go,counting them out and floating a little closer each time.
But he never leaves.He cant.Sam and Tucker tell him its okay and he can go into space for a while if he wants to but he cant ,his main obsession needs to be fulfilled or it hurts.It hurts like getting zapped by enough electricity to power fifty electric chairs.
Danny needs one and wants the other so much it aches.

So in an au where Danny has two obsessions, protection and space, I think it'd be really interesting to explore angst specifically about his space obsession.
Like, the protection obsession is fine, right? It serves a purpose. Even if it's not something that humans do, it's not going to separate him from humanity, because it's all about keeping them safe. It's not something he has to worry about.
The space obsession, though. It's not rational. It's not useful. It's too much like the ghosts he fights every night. Can he trust himself with something like that? What if it goes too far, and he doesn't even notice? Where is the line between religiously checking NASA's twitter and becoming obsessed with actually going to space? At what point does he stop caring about other people's property and safety and become something like Technus, building slapdash rockets in the middle of Amity Park?
If he feeds it, it might get worse. So he doesn't. This simple thing that used to being him joy has been tainted by his ghostly nature, and he can't let himself have that escape anymore. He unfollows NASA's twitter, he doesn't stargaze on patrol, he lets go of any unrealistic dreams he might've had of being an astronaut someday.
And then he has to deal with the consequences of being a creature made of emotion and obsession and depirving himself of it. Does he lean into his protection obsession even more, and stop taking care of himself? Does he become lethargic and depressed? Does his ghost core become less stable? I don't know! But it fascinates me.

OK but what if Danny's obsession (or main one if your into multiple obsessions) isn't protection or space or helping or anything like that, what if his is just wanting to Stay. Like, he was with his friends and maybe in his last moments of being torn apart by the portal he was just drenched with electricity and the desire to Stay with his friends, Jazz, to stay Alive? So like, what if he's not actually a halfa–that's simply how his core expresses it's need to Stay.
"Oh but then why can he change forms?"
That's a good question, I've got two very much straw-grabber options:
1) Phantom's core Knows he's not Human and Knows that Danny wouldn't be able to Stay if he was always looking like a ghost but it also can't always be "human" either
2) Another out-there possibility could be that he's more like Johnny 13's shadow, like how Shadow is by all means Unlucky but still has the ability to literally hide in/become a shadow bc (maybe hc, I've only watched the first 2 seasons bc my means of watching Danny Phantom broke on me) Shadow is always following someone and the easiest way to do that is to Be their shadow. Therefore, the easiest way to Stay is to be "human"
Basically in the first option it's a defense mechanism, and in the second it's for simplicity

It’s in one of the old buildings that was a front for one of the older gangs that have long since been destroyed. It’s known to serve anyone as long as you don’t do these five things.
1: Insult the Employees or the Owners guests.
2: Try to hurt or have hurt anyone in the cafe.
3: Mess with the alley delivery kids.
4:Do not lie to the alley kids about payment they always tell Owner.
5: Make promises you will not keep.
If you do anything on this list your going to get cursed into silence or something worse if it’s the Owner but if it’s the Employee you’ll just get back talked to hell and back or in worse case stabbed. But no one in the alley really cares as the food and drinks are so good and cheap for Gotham so even the alley kids who don’t work there can get food and the Alley doesn’t rat out safe spaces.
But it has caught the attention of the Bats for the mysterious nature of the Owner and his Employe so three members of the family will go undercover and investigate the cafe
Damien and Tim will go undercover as Dion and Ivan who are two Alley kids that are looking for a way to make money the legal way after being backstabbed by their old boss. And Jason will be going as Otto who is an ex-con who is also looking for work after getting caught by the bats a few years back.
Let the investigation proceed.

•Background•
Danny was just going about his [ half ] life.
Danny came out to his parents about being a ghost and him being phantom with jazz there and Sam, Tucker listening in with a go-bag if they need to skip town fast but that wasn’t needed as his parents immediately went into apologizing for what they said and how scared he must have been and omg we shot our son!!!
So that when very well after that his parents views on ghost changed for the better and thankfully they cut all ties with the G.I.W even if there still somewhat a problem but their manageable so as long as they all keep them at bay it should be fine.
And Jazz “accidentally” reveals Vlad •~{ I heacannon that Jazz hates Vlad with a passion for how weird he is about Danny }~• and everything he’s done and how he acted towards Danny…let’s just say the Fentons were in need of new Fenton-bats as all of there’s were bent out of shape.
Anyway with the less stress from having your parents shooting you every other night his grades have been get better admittedly slowly but there getting better! And everything in Danny’s life has finally chilled out and he can just relax.
Until Vlad decided to be a problem.
Vlad after healing from the beating the Fentons gave him, his obsession started to change from marrying Maddie to taking Danny as his [Not in a romantic way like the Batfam will think, IF I SEE THEM BEING SHIP HERE YOU WILL BE BLOCKED THAT IS A CHILD AND A GROWN MAN] so he had to get Danny and keep him but with the Fentons protection he couldn’t get Danny that way so he kidnapped Dani who has come back to Amity park to visit Danny Mama and got grab by Vlad.
Vlad started to destabilize Dani to create a new clone as a place holder until he can grab the real Danny, But he was unable to destabilize Dani all the way as Danny blasted through the wall and grab Dani and booked it back to his house. [This is very simplified, I’m just shit at writing this type of shit]
So 16 year old Danny and a de-aged 2 Dani ( Who has been renamed Arsa ) feeling very uncomfortable and unsafe with Vlad being around but as Danny’s still in high school and under Fentons protection and not to mention Danny would finish the job his parents and the portal couldn’t.
So he stays until he finishes high school well it was a bit more difficult to keep his grades up with his new daughter but he managers and when he graduates he gives his family+Sam and Tucker a way to connect them and promise to visit every once and a while and books it to the ghost zone and into his liar where Vlad can’t get in as Danny wouldn’t let him.
And Danny + Arsa stay there for 11 years [on the earth side of it ✨Time difference✨] well visiting everyone when Vlad was in the ghost zone doing what ever shady shit he does or trying to get into Danny lair and when Danny feels like Arsa and protect herself from whatever may try to hurt her they move back and decide to move to Gotham as amity park is far to close to Vlad then Danny likes to be.
And they open the cafe just for some extra play money and for fun and that’s how we got here.

•Little Facts•
•Danny is trans in this Au
•Asra doesn’t have memories from when she was Dani but she does have feelings
•Maddie and Jack are keeping the G.I.W at bay so they don’t start a war and keep Vlad on his toes while Jazz is in star city as a therapist or psychiatrist
•Danny and Asra choose what age they want to look like so Danny picked 21 and Asra will also probably pick 21 but she still wants to act like a kid or teenager for a few hundred years before than [it’s for Dani who never got the chance to be a kid or teenager]
•Danny somehow found a beanie that looks exactly like the one Dani wore and gave it to Asra as a gift now she wears it with her dagger pins with the magic Danny taught her :)
•Danny is really good at magic, the Fentons think it’s because down the line they most like had witch’s and fea folk in their family tree
•Jason starts to have a crush on Danny after seeing him beat the shit out of Vlad or the Joker for the alley kids
•Danny mother hens the shit out of the alley kids and the alley kids love it as most don’t have the best parents, Damien and Tim are no exceptions :)
•Danny has chilled out with age but is still a feral fucker at heart, Asra doesn’t hide it
•Asra call Danny “Mama” or “The boss man” when on the clock and will call Danny “Papa” if she feels like it
•Asra added to the Vlad and Danny misunderstanding because she is tired of having to deal with this vampire from Temu
•Danny and Asra are always up to some good old gender fuckery

throwing my idea’s out into the void in an effort to help myself get a better grip on where i want my upcoming fic to go, i was thinking about obsessions for Jason. Like, revenant fits him more than a halfa in my opinion, and I wanna do this little thing with two obsessions for halfa’s (bc i just love space and protection obsession danny shhh, and using the fact that he has two forms since he is both alive and dead as reasoning). but since jason probably won’t be a halfa but still has acore, he needs an obsession.
I was thinking of making it protection but then was like, what if it’s family based? Like base it off of what they wanted or loved most in life (like ember and fame or box ghost and his love for boxes). And it might just be me but i feel like it’s pretty cannon that Jason values family or familiar ties, at the very least he did before he died so it would count.
(if you can tell what kind of fic it might be no you can’t >;))

Just saw someone talking about obsessions and remembered my idea/headcanon.
So, the two main obsessions the phandom will give Danny are space and protection. Space makes sense given his interests, but protection doesn’t really. In most lore, obsessions are created when the person dies based on their goals, unfinished business, personality, or thoughts at moment of death.
I’ve seen one person use the last to justify it, and it worked fairly well. Basically the portal let out some low level ghosts and he heard Sam and Tucker’s screams. Boom, protection obsession. But that’s not enough for me.
Sadly all the other obsession paths lead directly to space, so we’re out of luck. However, Danny isn’t totally dead, is he? Obsessions form at the moment of death, but he doesn’t have one moment of death. He dies over and over and over and over. What if at each of those deaths, whatever goal he has in mind when transforming crystalizes into a partial obsession. On their own they wouldn’t last long, maybe a day or two, but if he is repeatedly transforming with a specific thing on his mind, the obsession would grow into a fully fledged one.
So after a few days of being a hero he notices people in trouble more often. After a few weeks he starts feeling the need to go out his way to help. After a few months, there’s no more fighting it, he is obsessed with protecting people.
This also handily works for Vlad. Over the entire time it took for him to fully die, he was partially transforming and every time his thoughts were on Jack and Maddie. Slowly building up the obsession over the years When he finally got out of the hospital the obsession was at an overwhelming strength. Maybe it died down during the remaining years pre-series, with all the transformations he used to build his empire. But once they were back in contact it only got stronger with every transformation.
