Star can’t help but find Danny Fenton to be a curious oddity when she’s assigned to tutor him in math.
Get up girls we have another day of obsessing over fictional characters to cope with reality ahead of us
i feel like this is important enough to put on here.
if you have any videos on youtube make sure this is unchecked
So you know those adorable details where characters with a tail affectionately wrap their tails around each other's to show affection? Yeah. Lamb can't.
Danny is a Chemistry teacher at Gotham Academy. His favorite student is Tim. He shocks the students by teaching and creating a Fear Antitoxin for the kids to learn as part of their curriculum.
Can you do something for me, please?
I want you to reblog this if you believe that two people can be very close and physically affectionate with one another, but still have a completely nonsexual, non-romantic relationship.
Even if the two people in question are capable of being sexually or romantically attracted to one another.
Because the friendship I share with someone I consider family in a way that transcends blood has been typecast as a romantic relationship ENTIRELY too many times, and I’m beginning to get sick of it.
I lost the prompt for this, but it was basically "Danny ends up at Gotham Academy For Reasons, tries to annoy the Lone Sane Man Damian into being friends with him for a week, which ends with Damian dragging this irritation in an alley, giving in to his anger enough to punch him, only to learn that's the best way to start making friends with a ghost." In my version, Vlad has decided to focus more on becoming a Father Figure to Danny and simultaneously working to undermine his position as Phantom, starting with stepping down as mayor, moving to Gotham, and convincing Maddie and Jack to allow him to fund Danny's entry into the prestigious Gotham Academy where Danny could get the academic support he needs to succeed, pointing out Danny's abysmal grades and attendance as proof of this necessity. They agree, sign temporary guardianship over to Vlad, and Danny is forcibly sent to the preppiest school in New Jersey.
He doesn't fit in with the rich crowd because he gives off strong middle class vibes. He doesn't fit in with the scholarship crowd because, though he's smart, his study skills have gone to crap and his entry grades are only accepted because Vlad had the money to pay for his tuition, and most everyone in between is put off because, if he was considered weird in Amity, he's seen as a freak here. In Gotham, that translates to potential rogue, so even the teachers treat him with suspicion (ignore that this is the best way to push Danny into roguedom. We're going for realism, not how troubled kids should be treated to ensure they grow up feeling loved and not in need of villainous coping mechanisms).
The only one that treats him neutrally and has, when the bullying escalated (to a level of annoyance for him) defended Danny is a kid with Middle Eastern features he learns, with some work, is named Damian. Damian lets him eat with him. Damian is effortlessly cool without being a bully. Damian is even liminal! That's all Danny needs to start thinking maybe, just maybe, he could become friends with the one guy that tolerates him sitting at the same lunch table. He's made friends with more prickly people, after all!
Uncle Scarecrow AU!
So Jonathan is either Maddie's Half brother or Cousin and was really close with the Fenton family until he went a little crazy.
His obsession with fear is driven partially by the idea that ghosts feed on fear and partially since he's ecto contaminated and also feeds on fear to some extent.
Eventually word gets out to a few people that Danny is Phantom and the GIW managed to destabilize him in a way that he doesn't look as human and needs a large amount of fear and ecto to look even somewhat normal.
Maddie and Jack send him off to his Uncle Jon knowing that Gotham has ecto and fear in abundance. Jon digs deeper into his fear gas and figures out that it can work as a stabilizer for Danny if he inhales, drinks, or gets it injected into him.
The Bats get suspicious when Scarecrow breaks out of Arkham and just isn't seen for weeks. They manage to track him down and see him with his mask off in a lab with Danny and Bruce, Tim, and Cass listen in:
"Are you sure this will work, Uncle Jon?" A boy with white hair and Lazarus green eyes asks looking just a bit too inhuman to be comfortable. ("Uncle Jon?)
Crane spins around
"It has to work, Danny and I'll keep working until it does." He approaches Danny with a syringe full of fear serum. The Bats get ready to intervene but the boy doesn't seem scared
"So this chemically causes fear and hallucinations. Right?"
"Exactly. Since you're half human I'm unsure how much fear you're supposed to ingest to stay healthy but we're going to figure it out. Your parents entrusted you to me so I'm going to make sure you're okay." The boy sighs and gestures for the needle. As the Bats shift, this child has to feed on fear to stay healthy?
"I'm pretty sure they sent me to you because of ecto levels in the city and the amount of fear I'd be able to consume naturally Uncle Jon." He states as he jams the needle into himself. Above him Bruce and Tim want to intervene but Cass stops them
"Not hurting him." She states. Danny shivers for a moment before shifting into a much more human form with black hair and blue eyes as they watch on.
"How human do I look?" Scarecrow grins widely
"You look great kiddo. How stable do you feel? What effects are there? How is it interacting with your biology?" Danny thinks for a moment
"I feel like I watched a horror movie in theatre and absorbed enough fear to last a few days." Scarecrow takes note of that.
"Eventually we'll find something that'll work more permanently." Crane vows
"How much fear do you need to eat weekly?" (The Bats listen closer if one of their rogues literally has to feed on fear that rewrites several prior assumptions about him)
"Not as much as you. I'm still mostly human and I tend to stock up on a bunch at once. I'm thinking about making a weak strain to inject myself with so I won't have to go out as much." His Nephew seemed surprised
"Really? Family tradition means that we need at least one Supervillain a generation and my parents have stopped doing vivisections in their basement so really it's just you?"
"Family tradition?" Tim questions but Bruce is almost as confused. He'll need to look into Jonathan Cranes background more after this if it's a family tradition. He's also concerned about the vivisections the boy mentioned.
Scarecrow let's out a bit of a laugh below them.
"Who will be the villain from your gen then?" He mused
"Any one of us really," Danny laughed "According to the Government I'm breaking the law by existing. Ellie is half raised by Uncle Vlad and he's enough of a villainous fruit loop, Dan is on probation for murder, and Jazz wants to be a psychologist." He explained.
"Jazz I'm sure." He smirks as the Bats take notes
