#danny as the mall Grinch

[danny-and-hisshadow]

Currently rolling around ideas in my head about how Danny will fight the mall santa who both gets paid more than double what Danny makes an hour and who is secretly the joker, I am thinking the joker brought goons with him to the mall to act as elves, maybe he has eight jokerized reindeer and a viscous robot Rudolph with a lazor nose

[dcxdpdabbles]

Hi, I am currently slowly writing a story about Danny Fenton being a mall Grinch in gotham and later fighting a Batman rouge (think mall Santa only the Grinch instead). I got a few chapters up and some art.

Do you got any advice on writing? I would love to hear it.

Also I really enjoy seeing you on Tumblr all the time,it has made my day happier many a time.

I hope you have a good year despite your haters.

DANNY AS THE GRINCH!? That's honestly so perfect. Please send me the link I love to see Danny just decking people with all his "I hate Christmas" energy.

Thank you for reading all my random dabbles. I really enjoy seeing people react to them. And no worries, I'm used to people hating. My HP and HP blog fics have been getting a lot of messages. Some people just have a lot of free time.

As for advice,

I always pick a character and write their POVS because I like exploring a character's narrative compared to what the audience knows.

You must know the character's mindset to write how they react to things. Know their backgrounds, likes, dislikes, habits, pet peeves, and favorite foods.

Knowing what the character would "see" first is also important. Like when describing settings. Most people (not all I know) do not spend three hours counting the grass stands or how many buildings are on the street, but they will usually spot one thing first - maybe the sunset looks really nice? A group of kids is playing, and screaming to the side? maybe they smell something good?- and their mind launches on to that before noticing other details.

Sprinkle into how they interact with the world makes them see real and more three-dimensional. Show not tell is one of my favorite methods to get that across.

For Example Tim,

He grew up wealthy but neglected. He is externally book smart and even has a good grasp of street smart, but emotionally intelligent, he's not the best.

To tell would be something like:

"Tim is a great CEO. Despite being young he can run a business great, can keep up with the Batman and can even find the time to date."

To show would be something like:

"Tim prides himself in organizing his schedule for a well balance work and private life. His duties as CEO were easier to manage due to his training as Drake Heir. He knew how to smile, charm, and persuade the upper crust of Gotham long before he was running on roofs with Bruce."

Both work well for any situation but showing lets people know why the character is the way they are without making it sound like a list of facts.

I hope this makes sense.

Oh also here are some really reference I like to go back to

Words to say instead of said

body languages phrases

How to build romantic relationships

[nbnaruto]

Personal headcanons for the older grayson bro Danny au PT2. because it's running laps in my head:

Dick never becomes a cop in this AU (acab)

Danny introduces Dick to Doomed, Dick plays it by himself in Gotham but when Danny is around he just sits there and watches him play(younger sibling instinct)

When Dick first finds out about Danny's hate for Christmas and toast, He is convinced that if Danny spends too much time in Gotham something in the air will turn him to a villian that only attacks mall Santas and appliance stores.

Dick: if your hate for Christmas turns you into a villain please promise me you'll at least be cool. I can handle being related to a cool villain, I cannot handle being related to the second coming of calender man or worse...condiment king...

Danny: I'm not gonna go evil!

Dick: I mean they're not really evil just incredibly lame

Ellie: lmao what would his name be? The Anti-Claus?

Dick: maybe he gets inspired by the Grinch and takes his name, intent on bringing the Grinch's ideals to all of Gotham

*cue twin screeches as Danny lunges at them*

Dick is the only one that can even remotely cook. Jazz keeps burning everything, Danny mixes things that shouldn't be mixed, Ellie will straight up eat things raw

the Fenton parents DO exist in the au, Dick just rarely interacts with them. Jazz moved out a year after they met Dick, and Danny moved with her. They still live in Amity but not in their parents' house. Ellie stays with them when she's not travelling and she helps pay rent by stealing money from Vlad. ( Danny still uses the Fenton portal and food still ends up getting reanimated somehow)

Unrelated since it's not really crack but Val is part of JL dark in this au. I had to say it and it's 100% real and serious in my heart.

I am so weirdly fucking obsessed with the Lorax yall don't even know

like I will sit here in my stupid lil computer chair in front of my laptop and connect really stupid things together connecting it all to this single mediocre film from a lackluster studio

but The Lorax was the second fully animated film from illumination and 3rd overall film

it has a weird production history of the film being rewritten and toned down to be palatable to the investors, with possible proof this also lead to the movie being fully re-casted to fit this idea. This if anything changed how Illumination would go forward with making films going forward. They produce very safe animated films and sell them on the names of the cast.

I can only look at the character of the Onceler who was tailored MADE to appeal to the youth and it fucking landed hard became the Tumblr sex man of all Tumblr sexy man and like only Sans Undertale came close to what the Onceler truly was. Which makes me look at Cruella and think it feels like the same thing. A character who in the original was not a good person fully pushed by greed who just wanted a coat made out of puppies because who wouldn't I feel the biggest difference between her and the Oncelers is that the Oncelers mother wasn't killed by a fucking tree

and then I look at Mario 2022 and it has a full celeb cast and it's being sold on that and Mario it doesn't matter to Illumination they will make a possible film it won't be groundbreaking it will be just as safe as every other Illumantin film and it will have a budget of like 80 mills and it will make back a fucking billion dollars and Nintendo will be like 'mamma mia get that Mario 2 on the pipe line' and it will fade into obscurity

does anyone KNOW there was a secret life of pets 2? or a sing 2? OR EVEN Benedict Cumberbatch as the grinch (2018).

and even today I just woke up and I was thinking about a line from the Thneedville demo track "In Thneedville you're never alone/cause you always got the stuff that you own/I just got my baby a phone' cuz in like 2013 I saw a toddler on a phone when I was in a mall in Calgary. LIKE I am not even saying The Lorax predicted the future

but somehow I feel this stupid mediocre film that is more known for its memes than its content is actually extremely culturally important and you won't realize unless you just listen to "Biggering" on repeat and really fucking think about the film and everything about it.

the movie was trying to say something but Illumantion stopped that from happening and its attempted messages have become a reality of the world

in 2012 a lady sung 'i just got my baby a phone' and now babies have phones!

in 2012 The Onceler said How bad can I be and in 2021 Creullas mother was killed by Dalmations The Lorax voiced by Danny Devito said he speaks for the tree and Chris Pratt as Mario is homophobic!

I am not saying this is the truth of The Lorax but I am saying I think about this so often that it overtakes my mind.

no one should spend this much time thinking about the Lorax (2012) but I do ... It is my curse

I speak for The Lorax

Tug of War (Ch 3)

ch 1 - prev - next

Word Count: 1,495

(AKA the random Christmas chapter)

The next week, Danny was greeted by the sight of a very pissed off Sam giving Tucker the silent treatment. He had warned him.

Sitting down in his seat, Danny hesitantly asked, “Hey Sam, how was your trip?”

Her vicious glare redirected to him. “Danny, how could you let him install the grill?”

Read on AO3 or under the cut

“Uh…” He looked over to Tucker, who looked like he was about to cry. “I told him it was a bad idea.”

“Yeah, right.”

“I tried, Sam.”

Sam glowered at him for a moment longer before sighing. “Fine. Trip was alright. But I’m so behind on everything now.”

He took notice of her slightly tanned face. “Didn’t get much time to study?”

“No, ugh. My parents wouldn’t leave me alone for a second.”

“Sounds like they’re gonna miss you when you’re gone off to college,” he remarked, remembering his own parents.

“I won’t be gone off to college if they don’t let me study,” she huffed.

Right then, Mr. Lancer strolled in the classroom wearing a Christmas sweater with “TO BE OR NOT TO BE JOLLY” knitted on the front.

Danny couldn’t help the scornful look that appeared on his face. He never could stand the holidays. Every year, when stores started playing their annoyingly repetitive Christmas playlists, every channel on TV kickstarted their broadcast of the same five Christmas movies, and everybody in his life began to treat each other with an exaggerated cheer, he just wanted to vomit. Call him a Scrooge, the Grinch, he doesn’t care. He’d rather go to sleep and wake up in January than go through it all again.

Later that day after school, Danny questioned his entire purpose as he weaved around the mall’s annoying Christmas decorations (more like obstacles) to chase Spectra. Apparently, for the last week, she has been making kids miserable by telling them Santa Claus isn’t real. Which...well, despite how true she is, it still isn’t right for her to relish in their despair.

“Aww Danny, you’re so boring. You won’t even let me have some fun, it’s almost Christmas,” Spectra teased as she shot an ectoblast behind her towards him.

Danny grunted, barely dodging it. “I think you’re misunderstanding the definition of fun. One, in any dictionary you will not find ‘making children miserable’ under ‘fun’. Two, nothing associated with Christmas is fun.”

“Ah right, I almost forgot how much of a Scrooge you are. But we know you act this way to hide something deeper. Tell me Danny, why do you bury those traumatic memor—”

“Shut up Spectra!” Danny yelled before shooting a blast back at her.

She easily dodged it, and smirked at how easily ruffled the boy got. His frustration was so delicious! Spotting Bertrand in his human form, quietly approaching with a string of colourful fairy lights behind him, her smile grew even wider.

Before Danny could react, Bertrand tossed the fairy lights like a lasso, catching his leg and slamming him to the ground. The mall tile instantly cracked upon impact.

Bertrand harshly pulled a Santa hat over the boy’s head before flying off with his companion, cackling.

Wes filmed the entire exchange with his brand new camera while he hid behind a trash receptacle. He couldn’t help but wince when Fenton hit the tile.

“Eh, he’s a ghost, he’ll be fine,” he muttered to himself, zooming in on Fenton’s form as he slowly got up.

Fenton yanked the hat off his head and grumbled, “I hate Christmas,” before chucking it to the ground and taking off to confront the two ghosts again.

Wes stopped the camera and frowned. Fenton hates Christmas?

How could anyone—okay, sure, no doubt the concept of Santa actually came from Satan and the holidays are practically an excuse in today’s society for corporations to milk more money from their consumers. But, even he himself couldn’t help but feel a little happier during the holidays!

Of course, this only further proves Fenton’s true identity. Only a ghost could feel so hateful towards such a merry time of the year, right?

Suddenly, an imaginary light bulb lit up above Wes’ head. His eyes locked on the nearest store selling Christmas decorations and he naughtily grinned.

~

If Danny could have it his way, he’d just spend the entire day lying in bed. His back was so sore from the fight with Spectra and Bertrand yesterday. Even his self-healing abilities weren’t enough to ease the pain.

Of course, he had to show up today, he had a math test. And a physics lab that counted for twenty percent of his grade. He couldn’t even tell himself that he could rest after school, his entire week was jam-packed with assignment deadlines. It was the last week before winter break but to Danny, it felt like an eternity would pass before he’d get to relax.

He was so looking forward to the break. Don’t get him wrong, he still despised everything to do with Christmas. But he’d happily welcome a break any day. Ghosts also generally calm down around this time because of their truce. Although, Spectra yesterday definitely was an exception.

Before he pondered any longer on that thought, Danny sluggishly opened his locker and froze at what he saw. Every inch of it was covered in loud red and green Christmas wrapping paper, flashing multi-coloured fairy lights lined the door, and ornaments hung from the two hooks. He went to grab his physics textbook and growled when he realized all of his books were also covered in wrapping paper.

“Woah there Danny, I thought you weren’t much of the festive type?”

Danny whipped his head towards the sound of Sam’s voice. “I didn’t do this! Wes—he even wrapped my textbooks!”

It only infuriated him even more when he noticed Sam trying to suppress a laugh. “It’s not funny!”

However those words were lost to her when she couldn’t contain it anymore. Danny scowled and began ripping off the paper on his textbooks.

A few moments later, Sam finally calmed down just when he started to harshly tug on the fairy lights. “You know, even though it’s pretty cheesy to me, people do this. The whole decorating lockers kind of thing. Heck, Paulina still maintains that shrine of you in hers. Maybe Wes just really likes Christmas?”

“But I don’t! It’s my locker too,” he angrily insisted as he continued to pull.

“True. You should still talk to him before doing that,” she said, watching him grip an ornament as if he wanted to crush it.

He paused. “Why are you even trying to defend Wes when you still won’t talk to Tucker?”

She instantly shot an indignant look at him. “That is totally different! I told him not to do it, yet he did it anyways!”

“ You should still talk to him ,” Danny repeated in a mocking tone.

“Ugh! Fine, go and tear down those decorations!” she snapped before stomping off towards their first class.

He coolly observed her retreating form for a moment before crushing the ornament in his hand.

~

Danny and Sam were already sitting at their lunch table toying with their food and complaining about all their assignments when Tucker walked up to them with a steaming tupperware container. Sam’s look instantly melded into a glare.

“Tucker seriously? I already told you to get rid of that grill and now you’re here making food for yourself?“

“Sam. Here, take this.” Tucker calmly offered the container.

“You know I don—“ she stopped mid-sentence when she noticed it was filled with grilled zucchini slices.

“Try one,” Tucker urged. “I promise, I cleaned the grill properly before cooking these.”

Danny was almost sure she was going to reject it. Except, she grudgingly reached out and grabbed one with her spork.

“What did you put on this?”

He shrugged, “Olive oil, some salt, black pepper, herbs, garlic and onion powder, oh and balsamic vinegar. Just like how you taught me.”

She eyed the slice for a moment longer before taking a bite.

“Look, by the end of lunch, if you still don’t want it, I’ll uninstall the grill, alright?” Tucker proposed.

Sam seemed much calmer now and Danny couldn’t tell if she liked the zucchini or not. “Tucker, I’m mad at you because you didn’t listen to me. It’s our locker we share together, we’re supposed to make decisions together.“

“I’m sorry Sam. I just...”

“Listen, you promise that you’ll take full blame when a teacher finds out?”

“No teacher is goi—”

“Tucker.”

“Alright, I promise.”

This time, Sam smiled and went to grab another slice of zucchini. “What do you say about me bringing in a spice rack tomorrow?”

Tucker looked at her in disbelief for a second before responding, “Heck yeah!”

Meanwhile, Danny was grinning. His friends will always have their squabbles. But somehow, they manage to work it out in the end every time.

Abandoning his own bland lunch, he picked up his spork just when Tucker began to dig in.

Scarecrow as krampus

Grinch Danny In his student apartment

Joker as a mall santa

Danny commiting to the bit as the joker and about to eat a onion when he got distracted by the Santa climbing out of a tunnel disguised as a chimney decoration.

My first time drawing Danny as the grinch

[danny-and-hisshadow]

By the way Danny is based off of the live action Grinch and based on mall grinchs. Did you know that you can't monetize the Grinch at malls or the company that owns the Grinch will sue?

Did you know really good professional Santas can make 300 dollars an hour, especially if they have a beard and a Santa body shape?

And that mall Grinch can be found on job searching 😜

[danny-and-hisshadow]

Current project:

Danny as the mall grinch

Plot- Danny normally dislikes Christmas ( the over played Christmas music, the fighting over weather or not Santa is real or not, the over commercialization of Christmas in general) , it's his thing to hate Christmas.

Danny's a broke college student living in Gotham, and he's not going to ask anyone for money or a handout,he has pride . Rent was due soon, so he started looking for a seasonal job.

he finds a job he would like after a few long hours, mall Grinch. He would get to act like the Grinch he is all day AND get paid to do it? And all he has to do is pretend to be the Grinch for little kids and adults who like the 'how the Grinch stole Christmas' movie? Sign him up.

Unknown to Danny a few independent scrooges have eyes on the mall he will be working at. A big charity event is going to take place in the giant mall with a professional Santa. And charities mean money, a certain clown decides to crash the event early by replacing the mall Santa.

Meanwhile something happened to the scarecrow, it's like he's been possessed by something.

Locations - a fake giant Gotham mall I made up

Possibly featuring a abandoned mall from the Arkham games.( Might have scarecrow go there)

Characters -

Danny - mall Grinch

Joker - ' replacement ' mall santa

Scarecrow - possessed by krampus

Gary , an original character I made up,

he is a man who works in the mall,

he put up a advertisement online looking for someone to be a mall grinch,

he was the one who wanted the mall Grinch to be the live action movie Grinch.

He is a make up artist and is the one to put Danny in his costume every day and personally pays Danny his money

(The mall Grinch Job ,it's a real job listing online in real life too, very nice to know,I looked it up and in south Carolina there were a few listings for one)

I originally was thinking about using toyman in this, have toys running around the mall terrorizing everyone trapped in the mall, just so I could have another excuse to let Danny as the Grinch go through the mall destroying weaponized Christmas toys and saving children.

but was really indecisive about it so I made a poll asking about it, I already had joker in the fic,so I asked if I should bring in toyman or scarecrow, and etc.

It was really close but scarecrow won

He wouldn't be scarecrow without his mask but here is Jonathan crane in the middle of going through a transformation into a krampus , the krampus didn't have a physical body so tried to take Jonathan crane's body, but Jonathan crane is the scarecrow,and scarecrow instead trapped the krampus in his mind, stealing the krampus 's power for himself, though he has to exert a lot of will power to stay in control. He is hiding out as his body changes but he is still making plans during it.

Other plans I have in mind for the story is Danny going around mildly defacing Christmas decorations, sabotaging Christmas music, and other things to improve moral.

Possibly Danny exploring the mall so to know his way around later in the story,only for that knowledge to be rendered useless after a point,lol.

I don't plan for Batman to show up, seeing as I planned on Bruce Wayne attending the charity event I had planned for the story , so robin might not show up either 😁

Red Hood would be in crime alley taking care of it

Night wing is in bludhaven

, I plan on researching other batfamily members before I try writing them into my story.

To stay motivated I try drawing stuff

Broke college student Danny's apartment in the mall Grinch fic

The walls are smoke stained and you can still smell cigarettes, the coach might be sticky from nicotine staining the fabric but at least he has his own place.

The Mall Grinch

Danny dislikes Christmas normally but being allowed to dress up as the Grinch in a mall in Gotham city when he got a holiday job at least made things interesting that year.

Getting to beat up a rouge as the Grinch in character was just the icing on the cake, at least he made one of the bats laugh.

Joker has replaced the mall Santa and intends on crashing a charity event but has acted sketchy and sus one instance too soon.

He came to the wrong mall.

Danny Fenton is the mall grinch , while he hates how overly commercialized Christmas has become he at least found a holiday job he can work with, Seussing it up and having a good time as the mall grinch.

He catches the mall Santa coming out of a tunnel hidden in a fake chimney thinks that just won't do.

I'm still wanting to do many drawings like Danny and a few others as power rangers, same in power armor and cat Vlad, plus continue writing Danny as the mall Grinch

but life has a way of kicking you when you least expect it so I'll be lucky to get to draw or write anything for a while because and I quote him 'you waste your time on baby shit, grow up and set aside childish things, stop being in your phone so much you're wasting your life, prove you deserve your inheritance, etc. you didn't make the right kind of friends"

things of that nature.

Apparently my love of drawing and reading is for babys

Apparently I'm wasting all my time on childish things and don't act grown up enough for one of my parental figures
