Infinite Realms Green Lantern Chapter 1
Danny flew in through the front door. He landed with a small thump as he shifted back into his human half. Phasing through his shoes, Danny walks through the living room and into the kitchen for an after-patrol snack. He sees Jazz sitting at the kitchen table looking through her Phantom scrapbook.
"Danny, how was your patrol?" "Did you catch any ghosts, any of the usual troublemakers?" Jazz asks getting up and pulling Danny into a hug. Danny leans into her embrace.
"Nope," he says popping the p, "just a few ectopuses."
"It's been quiet lately ever since Dan started patrolling with you" Jazz replies back to him.
"Yeah it has been quiet lately," Danny says, "It was funny watching Dan rip apart Skulker's suit the first time he went out patrolling with Me and Valerie," Danny said giggling at the memory of a terrified Skulker dangling between Dan's fingers.
Jazz laughs along with Danny. "I haven't seen Ghost X run back into the Zone so quickly before".
Danny groans out from where his face is pressed into Jazz's shoulder, "Jazz you know that's not his name."
Jazz just smiles and replies, "I know little brother just teasing you".
They separate from their hug, "little Jazz I'm almost as tall as you now," Danny says.
"You will always be my little brother, Danny, even if you're as tall as Jack one day". Jazz replies back smiling. "Although I am going to miss calling you short king".
Danny scoffs good-naturedly with a hand dramatically pressed against his chest and replies with a grin "Well I'm still going to call you Princess Jazzerincess Amazon warrior of Amity Park". They both break out in a small fit of laughter at their inside joke.
Danny walks over and opens the fridge. He eyes the leftover meatloaf from the other night already starting to glow an ecto green and an eye pops open to stare back at him, "nope" Danny says firing off a quick ectoblast at the meatloaf and closing the fridge door.
"Oh, are you hungry Danny how about we order out? What are you in the mood for?" Jazz says from behind him eyeing the fridge cautiously hoping for not another Thanksgiving turkey incident.
"How about Chinese?" Danny offers. Half an hour later with empty containers of Chinese food spread around the living room table, they both are sitting on the couch curled up against each other flipping through Jazz's scrapbook and looking at the newspaper clippings and pictures that Jazz had collected over the years.
"Hey, look at this one" Jazz points out. It's a picture of Danny as Phantom fast asleep all curled up in a box on the floor of his room. "If you fits you sits Catboy Danny" Jazz giggles."
"Jazz I am not a cat!" Danny huffs out, as Jazz is carding a hand through his hair as he leans against her side and his core lets out loud happy purrs despite his objections.
"Are you sure about that, you sound like one now." Jazz replied pulling him closer to her. Danny just rolls his eyes and enjoys the comfort of spending time with his older sister.
Tiredly Danny sighs happily, with Jazz holding him he feels safe, warm, protected, and at home, for Danny home, isn't a place or a house, and it hasn't been Fenton Works for a long time, maybe it never was. For Danny home has always been Jazz for as long as he can remember. It was Jazz who taught him how to read, to tie his shoes, and who made him breakfast, lunch, and supper. She would kiss his bumps and bruises better, she would read to him at night and comfort him when he had nightmares.
It was Jazz who took him to his first day of school and the millions of other things that his parents should have done. Jazz is his home and always will be, and now Jazz is leaving, for Gotham University. Of course, Danny is happy for his older sister. She has to go and live her own life and accomplish her dreams and Danny's half-life has been going great in the past few months.
He finally faced his deepest fear, he finally worked up the courage to tell his parents about Phantom, and his parents accepted him! All of him, his human and ghost half!
And best of all they had accepted Dan and Ellie, welcoming them into the family as if they always had been there. Danny lets out a fanged-toothed yawn Jazz had moved his head onto her lap and he drifted off into deep sleep with Jazz carding her hand through his hair.
Jazz wakes up to her phone vibrating on the arm of the couch she is leaning against, she looks down at her little brother, her baby, her everything, he is practically her son. She was more of his mother than Maddie has ever been. And now she was leaving him here. Here in this house full of anti-ghost weapons and scientific instruments that doubled more as instruments of torture for the poor unfortunate ghost who would be caught in them.
But Danny had finally told Jack and Maddie about his ghostly half-life, and they had taken it as well anyone learning that their son had died, they are trying to be better and are working on changing their views on ghosts and they have, and they no longer view every ghost they encounter as evil and something that has to be destroyed.
There was a lot of apologizing and crying on both sides, more so on Jack and Maddie's end. They had accepted him, all of him. They were finally acting as the parents they always should have been from the beginning. It only took their son half dying for it to happen.
But Jazz was finally sure that she could leave her baby brother here, that he is finally safe here in this house. That she won't wake up to a panicked phone call telling her that something terrible had happened. She can finally put that fear to rest.
Jazz looks at the time it's 9:30 pm, she ruffles Danny's hair and he makes those adorable cute cat noises that she loves.
"Mrrp?" Danny says as he blinks open his sleep-filled eyes at her, He chirps out a groggy "mom? oh, Jazzy." He stretches out like a cat before sitting back up next to her.
"Who's on patrol tonight?" Jazz asked.
"Valerie is on the night shift tonight since Dan is with Mom, Dad, and Ellie down in Spittoon" Danny replied to her as he yawned.
"Good now go upstairs and get a full night's rest little brother." Jazz told him.
"Okay mom,” Danny said half asleep as he made his way upstairs to his bedroom. Jazz just smiled as she started to clean up the empty containers on the table.
Meanwhile, in the Infinite Realms, there's a streak of green light with an emerald green ring in the middle of it heading towards a very familiar portal to the living realm.
YES YES, chapter one is finally done! After starting and deleting the dang thing several times it's done!

wip wednesday
no one asked for this but here it is anyway, my wip featuring anger-issues, catholic-guilt-induced-internalized-homophobia, i-rejected-my-best-friend's-advances-and-now-i'm-so-goddamn-grief-striken-it's-making-me-stupid eddie <3
“You don’t get to do that.” Bucks’ eyes were bright despite his head injury; the blood drying on his temple and the dark bruising on the surrounding skin made his eyes seem impossibly bluer. Having the intensity of his gaze on Eddie made him feel electric. With the adrenaline thrumming through him, he felt himself lift his chin. Goading.
“Do what?”
“You know what.” And, oh, Buck’s angry. Eddie hadn’t seen angry Buck in a long time, almost didn’t recognize the flush on his cheeks and the clench in his jaw.
“Buck—” But Buck’s hands were curled into fists. He looked like he wanted to hit him. The sight made Eddie’s pulse jump.
“You don’t get to—to reject me and then act like that. Like you—” Love me, he didn’t say, but Eddie heard it anyway.
Eddie imagined, not for the first time, what it would be like to ask Buck to hit him. It would certainly hurt less. He imagined being in the ring with him, sparring. Feeling the skin-on-skin contact. Would Buck pull his punches? Would he fight dirty? They benched about the same, but Buck had 20 pounds on him, easily, maybe more — if Eddie tackled him, would he go down, or would he take it and stand his ground?
Eddie wanted to reach out and fit his thumb to the bruise around his eye, to drag his thumb through the blood in his eyebrow. Eddie wanted Buck to gasp under his touch.
The thought of it made him take a step back, putting him out of Buck's reach.
idk who to tag but if you've been wanting to post consider this ur motivation xoxo

temptation tuesday
this angsty baby is kicking my ass, ive replotted it about five times now but its underway so have a tiny little snippet:
"Hey, man," he says, sitting down in the armchair to Buck's left. He tells himself its so he can face Buck fully, that it definitely doesn't have anything to do with the image of Buck and Natalia choosing the couch together—this couch which is dark blue and barely big enough for two fully grown firefighters and an elbow-y pre-teen to fit onto. "How are you feeling?" Buck looks at him for a moment. Its the same look from the hospital, like he's not really seeing, it makes Eddie's skin crawl.
"Like a building fell on me," Buck huffs.
"Yeah, been there," Eddie replies, something unsettled in the exchange of their banter. His eyes catch on the orange pill bottle next to the half empty glass of water on the coffee table. "Taken your meds?"
"Yep," Buck replies tightly. Eddie can't help the quirk of his mouth.
"Really?" He raises his eyebrows. "Thought maybe I'd have to hide 'em in a sandwich for you."
"Well, way to ruin your plan, Diaz," Buck retorts. "Now, I know your tactics." For a moment, its like normal. Buck's eyes sparkle with amusement before the creak of the floorboards above them has something blank creeping back into his expression. "Besides, Nat asked me to take them." He shrugs. "She doesn't like seeing me in pain."
Eddie swallows back the bile rising in his throat. As acrid as it is it tastes a hell of a lot better than the words he wants to scream at Buck.
(If you knew what seeing you in pain did to me, would you take them when I asked?)
"Right." Eddie nods.
The silence surrounds them, suffocating and stifling, so much so that Eddie actually finds himself thankful when Natalia approaches them.
"I gotta go. I'll see you later," she tells Buck, leaning over him to brush a kiss to his lips. Buck reaches up to cup her jaw, deepening the chaste thing into something more. Eddie averts his eyes to the windows, grimacing at the sound of their lips disconnecting. "Alright, tiger," Natalia laughs, that melodic sound again. "I'll miss you too." Eddie turns just in time to watch her brush a gentle finger over his birthmark before grabbing her bag from the staircase railing. "No roughhousing whilst I'm gone, boys," she warns them.
