I want to preface this by saying this is not victim blaming. This not calling people online lazy or grifting or whatever.
But an underlooked proponent on why some people are nearing homeless and crowdfunding heavily rn is bc society has failed you by making it as inconvenient as possible to learn about social systems and programs that already exist to help your situation as well as not having enough programs and aid.
Lemme give some examples. I have been unemployed for 10 months. My mom told me about a paying job training program a month ago after I already decided to mive in with her to find work, because nothing was coming up in my own city. My best friend didn’t know about affordable housing assistance in my state until she talked to my dad about it on a chance encounter. Some people on here have to see posts about much cheaper alternatives to their current prescriptions or medical plans because its not in the interest of their doctors paychecks to tell them about it. I would have waited to get vaccinated and not have crowdfunded for Uber money if I had known they were going to give free vaccine rides the next month. But I wouldn’t have really known this until I opened the app once that program started, because it is in their interest to keep taking my money until its their desired time for me to reap their “generous” services.
What I’m trying to say is that this is an under discussed aspect of how capitalism fails people. When you are forced to make your life and work and finances so singular and self interested, you are cut off from community and equivalent social services to proper government assistance. You literally don’t know that there is help somewhere out there for you unless you’re told.
shout out to ace and aro kids who are constantly bombarded with the opinion that sex and romantic love are directly connected to living a happy life.

Wow there were some really cool events and prompts this year. I tried to tag everything and everyone I could think of so credit can go where it's due. Let me know if I missed any because I'm low-key exhausted but I wanted to get it done quickly.
Under the cut is a list of everything I did in 2021 for the Danny Phandom. There are some Ao3 links that lead to cleaned up versions of my (favored) fics if you're into that so feel free to sub to Acesymmetricfool on Ao3 for more as I get them tidy or I'll just reblog them as I go anyway.
Here on tumblr, I have my main blog @another-shameless-fangirl and my writing sideblog or check the tags "#asf writes" or "#asf wrote a thing" for more.
Thanks for the support I've gotten from people here, it really does mean so much!
It's mostly angst and drama. How about I tag what isn't. Enjoy~
Trick (362) -Ectober @ectoberhaunt Danny's secret is out. This ghost has tricked everyone into thinking it's little Danny Fenton. Luckily his parents know better than to trust a monster.
Laugh- Ao3 link -Ectober
What do people actually think about Phantom? We'd like to think of him as a friend with a nice laugh.
Glitter - Ao3 link (731) -Ectober
Glittering snow appears wherever Phantom does. There was a beauty in the way Phantom felt pain.
Fairy Circle (1166) -Ectober -dramatic with classmates
Danny isn't interested in this nature hike, especially when his friends are back at camp with another group and he's stuck with Dash and some other people. When they find a fairy circle in a clearing, Danny knows the stories and to stay away. Dash doesn't believe him and maybe there is a price to pay.
Twilight (660) -Ectober -oh no what happened in Fairy Circle
Fenton better not be pulling a fast one about that fairy circle business. Dash rationalizes the events of Fairy Circle in what is basically chapter 2 and is awaiting a third chapter.
Swamp- Ao3 link (3225) -Ectober (Horror)
Fenton Works wasn't always a weapons manufacturer. The Fenton's were paranormal investigators. Field studies were done, measurements were taken, tests performed. It was a family business that searched for proof of ghosts. One night, they finally found it. If only their 6-year-old wasn't sleeping in the backseat.
Poison - Ao3 link (428) -Ectober
Danny Phantom was going to be the end of Amity Park as we knew it.
Mask- Ao3 link (640) -Ectober There wasn’t a time after the accident that Danny felt he could be himself. He had a loving family, friends who adored him, a public whose opinion varied on his performance, but he couldn’t bring himself to present all that he was to any of them. So Danny started to wear masks.
Condemned (420) -Ectober
Danny Phantom was a menace at best, at worst an upheaval of the natural order of things. Danny knew better than anyone this sentence was for the best.
Headstone (2434) -Ectober
Why did he have to be remembered? Why didn’t they want him anymore? Did they all wish him a safe passing to the afterlife? What did he do wrong to make all them want him gone?
He was a hero for them wasn’t he?
Insomnia- Ao3 link (1018) -Ectober
What was a little lost sleep if staying awake meant he could keep his city safe?
A Wish List for Danny- Ao3 link (763) -12 Days of Ficmas (Fluff) @12daysficmas
Danny's been so busy fighting ghosts, he forgot to make himself a Wish List before the holidays started and he just doesn't have it in him anymore. Good thing he has two best friends who love him.
With a Little Help- Ao3 Link (645)- 12 Days of Ficmas (Fluff)
Star Thunder has her life together school-wise. It isn't really her problem if Fenton's is falling apart. Lucky for him, Foley comes to plead mercy.
Call me Grandma Ida- Ao3 link (1541) 12 Days of Ficmas (Fluff)
“I don’t eat. I’m a ghost.” Ida Manson could have believed him if it weren’t for his voice or his face or the way his hands moved. She smiled at the ghost boy. “You’ve got a mouth, don't ya?”
She Knew Those Eyes- Ao3 link (2788)- Truce gift for @faedemon / @moipale
Jazz didn’t know as much about ghosts. She didn’t have powers or experience but she was willing to learn and help any way she could. Danny might not want to tell her about every rough time, but the important thing was that he trusted her to be there on the really bad days.
When her brother's skittish clone introduced herself, Jazz braced herself for what could be a very bad night indeed.
A Real Connection- Ao3 link (822)(Cracky fluff) @floralflowerpower
When Danny Fenton is spotted being carried home by the friendly Phantom, the Citizens of Amity Park can't help but wonder what their connection is. The consensus, despite any objections from Fenton, is that it is so very real.
Electric Duet (669) A duet with @floralflowerpower, prompt by @coolclaytony
Maddie experiments with Phantom's aversion to electricity and makes a dire mistake.
This is Only the Beginning- Ao3 link (1581) @danphanwritingprompts
Danny learns the hard way what Vlad already knew. They were both immortal and every human they cared about would die.
You Were Supposed to Be Our Uncle Vlad (1348) @danphanwritingprompts
Clockwork has his reasons when he shows Danny another alternate future. A single second could have made all the difference. Uncle Vlad would have been family.
My Eyes Were Blue (1021)- prompt by @dannyphantompromptgenerator and @all-out-disney
Danny finds out what happened to Sidney Poindexter.
Checking up on the boy (311) Kinda related to My Eyes Were Blue Prompt by @danphanwritingprompts
“Ma’am, you don’t understand. There’s nobody named Sidney Poindexter currently attending this school.”
Conviction (2083)- prompt by @amabsis
This time, instead of making a weapon to hurt ghosts, the Fenton's make a weapon that allows them to “get their feelings back”. Problem is they already have them, so what happens when you take an already emotional ghost teen and amplify it by 10?
Team Work Makes the Dream Work- (1424)- Cracky fun- prompt by @reallydumbdannyphantomaus
kwan: don't look now but we've shifted to another reality again
dash: fuck!!!!! shit!!!!! no!!!!!
kwan: i mean i know it sucks but it's happened before it'll be fine
dash: no idiot we've got an away game tonight how are we supposed to get to brantford from another reality??
kwan: 😱
kwan: we're gonna have to forfeit!
dash: not on my watch
Thanks so much!
One of my mutuals on my main asked me about DP and so I recced them some fics that I thought might help explain the main ideas of the fandom. SO here is that list (and also just some other fun fics I like because).
Under the cut because this is kinda long!

if you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live in the midwest, this is it.
“Most hospitals in America are non-profits, which means they must have financial assistance or Charity Care policies. This is gonna sound weird, but what that means is that if you make under a certain amount of money, the hospital legally has to forgive your hospital bills. Let me show you how this works. Type in the hospital name with ‘financial assistance’ after. Should be the top link. Let’s check. What you wanna do is look for financial assistance applications and policies. Let’s check the policy. From here, what you’re looking for is a sliding scale of benefits. 0-300% of the poverty guidelines, they will forgive 100% of your medical bills. So you can see here that 300% is $37,470, so if you make under that amount, the hospital will legally forgive your medical bills. If you’re a larger household, you can check it out from here. If you wanna test it out, I run a non-profit that does this so DM me, and I will actually do it for you, and see if we can crush those medical bills.” The guy’s Tiktok handle is @dollarfor.
The majority of my immediate fam works for hospitals and had no idea this was a thing. I find that insane but not at all surprising. Of course, there are probably all sorts of loopholes or requirements depending on the hospital or what sorta medical insurance you have. This might be helpful to check out.

This new bill has been introduced in both the house and the Senate.
Among other things, it will:
Raise the monthly disability income by just over 30 percent - bringing it to poverty level.
Remove penalties for recieving financial help from friends and family.
Increase the amount of assets a disabled person may have from $2,000 to $10,000 (this hasn’t been updated since 1989)
Update outside income restrictions to allow disabled people to receive up to $399 a month without reducing their benefits.
REWARD, not penalize, people who want to receive additional income while on social security income.
REMOVE THE MARRIAGE BAN YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT THIS WILL REMOVE THE MARRIAGE BAN
For those unaware current regulations do a lot to oppress disabled people. In fact marriage equality doesn’t even extend to disbled people who risk having their benefits reduced or outright taken away if they marry someone. This means that in common law states disabled people can’t even live with their significant other or they risk losing their financial independence.
Current regulations mean that if you’re disbled you can’t have so much as one penny over $2,000 to your name. So buying a car and gaining more independence or freedom is largely out of the question for disabled people.
Current regulations penalize social security recipients who receive income from outside sources, even if those sources are reimbursement. Did you get paid to babysit for a few hours? That’s income, and you get your benefits reduced. Did you loan a friend $10 and they pay you back? The government considers that $10 income, and you get your benefits reduced.
These aren’t mere anecdotes - these are all examples of actual things that have happened to disbled people I know, and if you have any disabled friends in your life I’m sure they can tell you the same stories.
If you value marriage equality, if you value financial independence, if you value the rights of disbled people, please PLEASE support this bill! Contact your reps, vote, and make noise! This is a great thing!
I work at a daycare with infants.
One of our baby girls is fat, in the 99th percentile for her age. She is super cute and sweet. Lately, she has been sick with various breathing issues, so she has been reluctant to take her bottles. Normally, she’ll take 4 ounces of formula at lunch and 8 ounces in the afternoon. Today, I was lucky to get to her take 5 all day.
There was a substitute covering a lunch break in my classroom today. We emphasized to her that we need to keep trying to get the baby to drink her bottle until she finished it. She said, “Why are you guys so worried about taking her bottle?”
My coworker replied, “That’s where all her nutrients are. She needs the nutrients and the water.”
To which the substitute replied, “But she’s so fat. She doesn’t need it.”
Thin privilege is a small, pretty baby getting better childcare because the caretaker doesn’t think she’s too fat to be allowed to eat.
“We chose the term “asexual” to describe ourselves because both “celibate” and “anti-sexual” have connotations we wished to avoid: the first implies that one has sacrificed sexuality for some higher good, the second that sexuality is degrading or somehow inherently bad. “Asexual”, as we use it, does not mean “without sex” but “relating sexually to no one”. This does not, of course, exclude masturbation but implies that if one has sexual feelings they do not require another person for their expression. Asexuality is, simply, self-contained sexuality.”
— The Asexual Manifesto, Lisa Orlando and Barbara Getz, 1972
Based on amazing crossovers such as the Half-Dead Phoenix, Spirited Away, Weirdward, The Phantom and the Potter, Wand of a Halfa, and Evanesco!
(Edit: added links to all the fic recs. Some of them have some cussing, but I don’t remember which ones, so read at your own risk)
Danny does not get an owl or a toad. He gets a cat. A black ghost cat with bright green eyes. He did not mean to get said cat, it just happened. Inky (Marsalias/Lula’s ghost cat OC) is alarmingly persuasive. Danny had nothing to do with this.
No, really. Inky got wind of it, followed Danny to Diagon Alley, and waited for him inside. She then presented a very strong argument as to why she should go with him to Hogwarts. Not only would she be a ghostly ally that can blend in wherever she goes, she can take messages back and forth far quicker than an owl.
“Don’t you live with the Westons?” “I am perfectly capable of taking care of all my kittens, thank you very much.”
To McGonagall and Jack, this looks like Danny getting annoyed and talking to a random cat who seems to be meowing rather pointedly
(yes Jack Fenton takes Danny to Diagon Alley. I’ve been reading too much fanfiction to want to deal with Maddie right now but I still want Danny and Jazz to have at least one semi-decent parental figure)
The wands hate him. Ollivander had to get out the strange heirloom from a man called Charles Worth. Danny has a good secret chuckle over that (Wand of a Halfa)
When the Weasley twins say he has to fight a dragon for the Sorting Ceremony (The Phantom and the Potter), he takes it seriously.
“Again?! Whatever. Fine. How big is it and are outside weapons allowed?”
When he finds out that it’s actually a mind-reading hat, he asks if he can fight the dragon instead.
He gets sorted into Slytherin because he locks the Hat out of his mind and then asks which House will make people trust him without question like that one HP meme
He just wants to not be blamed for everything going wrong all the time but the Hat doesn’t know that
Now the teachers are confused because after the dragon comment they thought for SURE he’d be a Gryffindor. Aren’t Slytherins supposed to have self-preservation instincts?
Gosh Danny would be so fantastic in all the Houses but his colors being green and black and silver and already having to deal with being pre-labeled as evil and devious just the narrative parallels are so fantastic
On the other hand, badger Danny…
…no, I couldn’t do that to him. But it sure would be funny!
The ghosts all gather around him wanting to know what he’s doing and he’s just like, can I eat my chicken in peace please
When he finds out Astronomy is a required class he almost combusts
He’s also super fascinated with wizard watches and goes on and on about how sensible they are. No one has the heart to tell him that 99.99% of the population does not have the time or the willpower to memorize entire star maps and planetary movements just to tell the time.
Peeves listens to him. Not just because he’s scary, but he helps with some of the (more harmless) pranks.
Danny gets into a prank war with the Weasley twins. Halfway through, he convinces Lee to switch sides, leading to Lee being called the Sympathizer (affectionate/derogatory) for the rest of the year
Danny adopts some of the more feral children and teaches them all he knows of combat. He simultaneously knows too much and too little
Like, he has no idea how wizard duels work, or what kind of offensive/defensive spells there are, and his hand-to-hand has decent form but is lacking in discipline
However, he does have in-depth advice on how to analyze a fight and determine the threat level, improvise weapons/use the environment, and troll an opponent into insanity
He also lists common pressure points and weaknesses (joints, thinner skin spots, nerve clusters, etc) and how to injure/not injure someone. He does not mention that most of this knowledge comes not from injuring others, but being injured himself
Feral children include Neville, Ginny, Luna, the Creevies, a few Puffs and pretty much all the Slytherin firsties who haven’t been corrupted by the propaganda yet (kinda-sorta The Potter and the Phantom, I’m a little salty about the most recent chapter)
I would add the HP trio but they’re too suspicious of Danny because all their interactions have been unfortunately creepy and he makes Harry’s scar prickle like crazy
Also I don’t want to deal with main plot drama I am here for Mandalorian-esque background shenanigans and not-my-division
Danny’s parents send a care package of fudge. It comes alive and tries to attack everyone. Suddenly everyone understands why the Monster Book of Monsters didn’t faze him
Seriously he growled the book into submission what the heck Fenton (aka my current favorite part of The Phantom and the Potter)
Danny and Hagrid get along like a house on fire. Everyone looks on in awe and horror.
Danny asks if the owls have some kind of tracking magic and if they’re used as wizarding bloodhounds. Nobody can answer this
Actually, Danny asks a lot of questions and makes a lot of comments that leave everyone in the vicinity vaguely disturbed
Danny has a list of people that he’ll regularly prank out of vengeance for his feral children. His friends affectionately call it ‘Danny’s Hit List.’ Current victims include Zacharias Smith, Draco Malfoy, and Cormac McClaggan. He also occasionally targets Ronald Weasley for intimidating his Slytherin firsties.
Danny feels a bit sorry for Harry because he knows intimately what he’s going through, and encourages his feral children to give him space. The HP trio sees this as an avoidance tactic and their suspicion rises.
Danny does not like Mad-Eye’s vibes. He sets off his alarm bells in a similar way to Severus Snape and Igor Karkaroff (I don’t know which fic has Danny sensing Dark Marks but it’s somewhere). He especially doesn’t like that Mad-Eye can somehow see him while invisible.
Barty Crouch Jr. has no idea what Danny is. He looks human, but there’s something else there that he can’t pin down. Is it the glow? The buzzing edges of his figure? The fangs? Well, he doesn’t seem like he’s interested in interfering, so Barty will leave him alone for now.
Danny is not exactly here of his own free will. MACUSA has no desire to get in the middle of whatever is going on in Amity Park, and is definitely not eager to deal with the Fentons (Spirited Away). It was either Hogwarts or be forcibly removed from his family and have their memories wiped. Nobody is happy about this (except for Dumbledore).
This means that he’s practicing opening portals. His future self could do it, so he knows he can learn it. It’s slow going, but Inky helps. Once he knows he can go back and forth quickly, he’ll sleep a lot more easily.
He tries to keep up with his muggle schoolwork for if when he goes back to Casper since he’s not hampered by sudden ghost attacks (this is where the family genius shines through; he gets pretty good grades on all of his schoolwork, even if some of it is a bit late or unfinished due to the sheer workload. Of course, Danny does not see this at all).
He is both envious and distraught that wizards don’t learn science or math or language. He then decides to force his feral children to at least learn basic math (“Your monetary system is as least as bad as the Imperial measurement system, you need this”) and biology (“Okay, this is just the broad strokes of how your body works. This is how you can break your body. Please don’t. This is how you can fix your body if there’s no mediwitch available. Please do.”). They are both intrigued and annoyed.
I’m tempted to have him suddenly realize he’s never flown while intangible while talking about brooms to Ginny. Super-fast wanderer Danny is a concept that lives in my head rent-free.
On the one hand, I don’t want to flood this crossover with too many AU concepts, but on the other hand super-fast wanderer Danny
He’d still prefer portals for quicker travel, but having a backup could be a good idea. I’ll have to think about it.
Ending? What ending? The shenanigans will last forever and a certain wizarding war can’t stop them
In all seriousness I don’t think having Danny interfere too much with the HP trio is a good idea, I get a little tired of alternate canon events or having major plot points magically averted just because of an OP other-dimensional character.
I’d rather have Danny setting up safe houses and taking care of his feral children in the background, more focused on taking care of survivors than doing Harry’s job. Someone’s gotta protect them, after all, and Danny can do it much more easily than the HP trio ever could
Danny Phantom One-Shot Recs
I’m gonna plug my own one-shot in here first, then go in reverse through my history. This list is probably gonna have more fics, so buckle up. There’s (surprisingly) only one crossover, and I’ve also put the GothMoth fics into a section by themselves. Because they’re special.
Coincidentally by Dragoknitter - Miles and Tucker are cousins, and Tucker basically says, “Y’all need a support system, lemme hook you up.”
Is This Just A Thing that Girls Do? by newdog14 - Middle school girls are terrifying, and this is definitely something I might’ve done if given the right motivation.
Pushing Buttons (Until They Break) by ObsidianCreates - Danny’s parents aren’t the best at feelings, and press on way too many sore spots. But! There’s a sequel and they make up for it!
Day Three: Cryptid by JadeNoRyuu - Astraphobic Danny + supernatural thunderstorm + helpful senior student = a fun little story that is just *Pacha 🖐👌Meme*
The Green Gremlin by NikaylaSarae - Some top-notch character building for Dash, although this author mostly writes for Sanders Sides
Parental Woes by DarkNymfa - Very nice premise! Clockwork and Pandora are awesome, but don’t really Get human stuff. Danny is embarrassed.
Of Tweets and Twats by DarkNymfa - Twitter convos discussing Amity Park, featuring people from Amity Park!
Flickering Yellow and Green by dragonrayy - Danny gets hit with something by Technus that messes up his eyes, so he goes to a ghost optometrist.
Grabbing Smoke by thatgirl_youknowtheone - Lovely characterization for Kitty! Also has Jewish Sam!
Growing Pains by ayjayar - Ghost puberty! Ghost puberty! But not for Danny
What Can Be Found by ajility - Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt. Or, in this case, a dream ship in the Ghost Zone.
Facing Facts by ajility - I get the feeling this author just likes writing Danny in denial about his parents’ neglect…
The Things We Hold Dear by Alana_Kitty - Nice little story about Danny fixing Ember’s guitar!
Bang Babies got nothin’ on the Ghost Kid by anthrop - Look. I loved Static Shock as a kid and seeing him completely overwhelmed by Danny’s OP ass is wonderful.
Core by GhostWriterGirl1 - F in the chat for Danny. Boi gets messed up by a solar flare. The author added in the reasoning behind the headcanon too, so that’s neat!
Shots Fired by RedGhost1010 - This is definitely NOT what you should do in the event of a school shooting, but who cares about that when you’re immortal?
Lightning Scars and Listening Ears by GoingDeceased - A little angsty, but hey! Danny finally has some adults on his side!
Electricity by lexosaurus - Danny has PTSD, and peer pressure is a bitch
Spooky Sin Scholar - Danny is a polyglot and teaches classmates to swear in Ghost.
The Fright In Halloween - Danny is a little shit, but what else is new?
Mimicry - Mostly just shitting on radical Christianity’s policy of “unnatural things must be eradicated, we must send them back to Hell where they belong”, at least that’s my takeaway
Fashion Flame War - Uniforms are only convenient for schools, and are a crime against expression of self. Casper High can never do things the easy way, though.
In My Veins Flows Chaos, But I Could Do Without It Being This Obvious - *plops ectoplasm into Danny’s hands* He glows!
Nip Trips Nips - Ah, ghost nip. And implied Val/Ellie! (Ellie is my preferred name for her because Dani and Danny is just so confusing)
Ecto Upgrade Start - Ghost puberty, for Danny this time!
Gala Glamour - Richness and pettiness are a given combination, after all, why shouldn’t Vlad use his ridiculous wealth for the entertainment of teenagers?
Poised To Go Splat - Don’t drink glow sticks, kids. Or let your insane ghost-hunting parents make an anti-ecto fog machine for the school dance.
What Qualifies As A Few Too Many Words? One - Ah, the unfortunate circumstance of a ghost needing Danny’s help, luckily (or unluckily) the ghost doesn’t speak English.
Would You Like Some Bullets With That, Sir? - Vlad is insanely rich. People don’t like him. Failed assassinations are just annoying when you’re immortal.
Phabulous Phashion - Danny should not be allowed to shop for clothes by himself.
Little Nibblers - Accidental ghost edible consumption, and baby fangs.
I know it's popular to portray Danny has having scars and all, that's fine by me.
But considering Ghost Regeneration in the series is busted (like they regenerate from nearly everything) image just Danny shrugging immensely fatal injuries and be like "well that's annoying" everytime while everyone else freaks out.
Vlad dies. He isn’t gone written for day 26 of ectober month 2021: autopsy / pumpkin more parts of this series: 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 (links fixed)
“Daniel. Daniel, listen to me.”
Plasmius floated behind him, reaching out to grab Danny’s shoulder. Danny kept walking, accelerating his pace so that he was just out of Vlad’s reach.
He had to get to class. Vlad’s nonsense could wait until after he failed his physics exam.
“You can’t let them do this to me! You of all people should understand what will happen.”
Danny scoffed, not bothering to look behind him. “Maybe you should’ve thought of that before you got yourself killed. I mean, really. One of your little projects was bound to blow up in your face sooner or later. Don’t expect me to feel sorry for you.” Especially since said project had been human experimentation, vivisection. It hurt enough that the subjects had been Danny’s clones, but all things considered, at least Vlad had paid the price.
Jazz didn’t quite see it that way, and it was hell to see his parents so devastated over their dear friend’s untimely death. But Valerie knew. She’d been the one to tell him the details of what happened, of how she’d found Vlad elbows-deep in a boy that resembled Danny Fenton. Of how she’d panicked and shot an ectoblast that just grazed Vlad’s shoulder, which hit one of the cloning tanks and detonated a chain explosion. How the poor clone on the table had reacted with a final ghostly wail, decimating everything in a ten-foot radius and slamming an unsuspecting Vlad against the ceiling. Which then caved in.
Valerie’s suit was the only thing that saved her from being buried alive in the lab.
Vlad, on the other hand, was dead even before the mansion collapsed.

Sure I'll just link you.
Ice core ghosts are the only ghosts that have to deal with ghost hunger.

(Hi @staarshiine @ninja-go-to-therapy @reesiereads @lunellyn @cookies-loves-duckies @nblaunchpad @nonbinaryboyd ily all <33)
Hey it’s ace week and you’re local ace has something to say! I’ve been out as ace for 3 years now and it’s still a big part of my identity that I’m proud of so here’s a lil something for those who need it!
hi! I’m so sorry if this is a bother, but i thought you might be a good person to ask. i recently rewatched danny phantom as an adult - i loved it as a kid and wanted a good dose of nostalgia. after typing in the tag it was wild to find the phandom still up and kicking (honestly with more passion than i’ve seen from any fandom in my 8 years of tumblr). i immediately came across fanart for phantom of truth which i devoured along with its sequel in just a few days. i also read pits by cordria and loved it, but in the last week i’ve hit a bit of a research lull. i was wondering if you could fill me in on some details - maybe point me in the direction of popular fics or material? also, could you please explain wes weston to me - is there a particular fic he was born from or did he just sort of appear in fan lore? if not no worries, but i’d appreciate anything you had to offer!! thanks :)
Welcome to the phandom!
So the phandom in general is SUPER big on events. We have a year round event's calendar of which we're currently celebrating Ectober Month! You can find the details to that in the calendar along with other upcoming events!
In general, you'll find a LOT of incoming dp fan media through events and their tags, and that's where I tend to find new writers/artists to follow each year.
I've made two in depth posts on Wes Weston, so I'll just link them here [1: the older detailed wes] [2: a more updated wes]. The basic intel though is that yes he's entirely a phandom made OC that we've just adopted to fill a social hole in the dp universe.
There are tons of amazing DP writers and fics. I'll link you a few of my faves! In no particular order,
1. @imekitty (her ffn) is an older phandom writer who is kinda my personal gold standard for angst. She's also done some awesome slash fics though! Her current most popular series is the Disparaged/Dissembled series and fair warning, it's pretty dark!
2. @ecto-american (ghostanimal on ao3) is another older phandom writer who's still super active! He's currently most known for his fic Broken Ectoplasm, which is a bit darker than his usual pieces. Regardless, he has a pretty good range!
3. @five-rivers (marsalias on ao3) is an absolute writing fiend. I literally can't think of a genre of fic that they haven't written. They're currently best known for their monster of a longfic Mortified, which is ongoing and currently sits at a 258 chapters, or a little over a half million words. I personally am a big fan of their Exhumed series.
4. @wastefulreverie (her ao3) doesn't write a ton for dp anymore, but her archive of fics is AMAZING. Every so often I'll just go binge her writing, it's seriously fantastic. I think she has written some of my favorite angst fics that I've found so far.
5. @ladylynse (lynse on ao3) is another really big writer who also does a fair amount of crossovers if you're into that. Currently, her biggest fic is The Trouble With Ghosts which is an extremely popular fic currently. Good stuff!
6. @things-i-cannot-do-in-amitypark (their ao3) has several extremely popular fics on ao3 and ffn. I definitely recommend checking out their stuff. They've been writing DP for years and really have a great grasp on narration and building an exciting story.
7. @kinglazrus (UnluckyAlis on ao3) is actually one of the fastest writers I've ever freaking met. They're most known for their fic The Survivalists which is about Danny's class disappearing only to be found stranded on an island. Overall, really fun writer and also a cool person as well.
8. I know you said you read Pits, but @cordria has a TON of oneshots on her Tumblr as well as her ffn and ao3. I've been following her works for years and she really is an absolute S tier writer.
9. Shift by CaptainOzone is literally my favorite dp fic ever written. The basic premise is that Danny didn't grow up in Amity, and is revealed as Phantom right before he moves there. Oz is an outstanding writer and I'm super pumped they dipped their toes into DP for this fic.
10. when im dead, my dearest by redrobin1989 is only three chapters long, but i think honestly it really exemplifies an incredibly well written Valerie-centered fic. I go back and reread it every so often because wowowow.
11. Roughing It by Haiju is a big phandom favorite. You already read PoT/SOAD, so I know you'll like this one hahaha.
12. The Ghost Of Heroes by Enigmaris and ScarletNightFury is a really popular DP/MCU crossover starring an amazing bond between Danny and Spiderman. It's a pretty lighthearted fic, but it's super fun and the storylines are really engaging.
13. Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time by MissMegHolden is a DP/Young Justice fic that's very popular right now if you like that crossover. It's ongoing and updates semi-regularly. I've been following it for a while and I love it, though this is one of my fave crossover types (and I'm a big fan of DP crossovers lmao).
14. In The Eye of a Needle by mystyrust is an extremely popular DP/BNHA crossover fic that is completed. This is another one of those fics I go back and reread a lot.
Okay I could keep going but I'm going to stop here for now. All in all, I definitely recommend scouring event tags for new writers/artists. The phandom also has a discord that you can always DM me for an invite. The phandom in general is extremely chill. We're an older fandom so we really don't have drama or anything.
Once again, I welcome you and I hope you have fun!
(oh quick plug my own ao3 i write a lot of angst)
Hello! I'm not sure if you do fics recs and if you don't you can just ignore this, but I was wondering if you have any recommendations for Danny with either the Batfam or Justice League? You seem like you're pretty well versed in the fics of this phandom lol
oh I've been reading a few lately! I'll give you a list of the ones I'm subscribed to currently ~

Secrets, secrets and advice (this teacher’s vice) by AppleScented Lazers on FFN This week’s writings:
I got Out of Time’s 17th chapter up. Just waiting on 18 to be looked over and sent back for one last edit before posting. I’m both nervous and excited for that chapter. It’s been in the works for AGES. Otherwise - I worked on assignments this week… that counts as writing right?
Y'know, whenever people want to talk about why aspec people 'count' as an oppressed identity, they tend to go for the big stuff like corrective rape and conversion therapy. And like, we should absolutely talk about that stuff. Obviously those things are terrible and important and we need to raise awareness and deal with them.
But I feel like people often gloss over how… quietly traumatising it is to grow up being told that there is only one way to be happy— and that everybody who doesn't conform to that norm is secretly miserable and just doesn't know it— and then to gradually realise that, for reasons that you cannot help, that is never going to happen for you.
You're not going to find a prince/princess and ride off into the sunset. Or if you do, then it's not going to look exactly the way it does in fairytales. You're not going to get a 'normal' relationship, because you are not 'normal', and everybody and everything around you keeps telling you that that's bad.
You see films where characters are presented as being financially stable, genuinely passionate about their work and surrounded by friends and family, but then spend the rest of the plot realising that the real thing they needed was a (romantic and sexual) partner, to make them 'complete'.
You absorb the idea that any relationships you have with allo people will ultimately be unfulfilling on their side, and that this will be your fault (even if you discussed things with your partner beforehand and they decided that they were a-okay with having those sorts of boundaries in a relationship) unless you deliberately force yourself into situations that you aren't comfortable with, so as to make uo for your 'defects'.
You grow up feeling lowkey gaslighted because all the adults in your life (even in LGBT+ spaces. In fact especially in LGBT+ spaces) are insisting that it's totally normal to not be attracted to anybody at your age, and then you go to school and everybody keeps pressuring you to name somebody you're attracted to because they can't imagine not being attracted to anybody at your age.
And then you get older and realise that one day you're going to be expected to leave home, and that one day all your friends are going to be expected to put aside other relationships and 'settle down' with a primary partner and you don't know what you're going to do after that because you straight up don't have a roadmap for what a 'happy ending' looks like for someone like you.
(And the LGBT+ community is little help, because so many people in there are more than happy to tell you that you're not oppressed at all. That you're like this because you don't want to have sex, and/or you don't want to have any relationships, that your orientation is some sort of choice you made— like not eating bananas— rather than an intrinsic part of you that a lot of us have at some point tried to wish away.)
Even if you're grey or demi, and do experience those feelings, you still have to deal with the fact that you're not experiencing them the 'normal' way and that that's going to effect your relationships and your ability to find one in the first place.
If you're aiming for lifelong singlehood (which is valid af) or looking for a qpp, then you're going to have to spend the rest of your life either letting people make wrong assumptions about your situation (at best that your relationship is of a different nature than it actually is, at worst that the life you've chosen is really just a consolation prize because you 'failed' at finding a romantic/sexual partner) or pulling out a powerpoint and several webpages every time you want to explain it.
This what being aspec looks like for most people, and it is constantly minimised as being unimportant and not worth fighting against— even in aspec spaces— because we've all on some level absorbed the idea that oppression is only worth fighting against if it's big, and dramatic, and immediately obvious. That all the little incidents of suffering that we experience on a daily basis are not enough to be worth bothering about.
I mean, who gives a shit if you feel broken, inherently toxic as a partner, and like you're going to be denied happiness because of your orientation? Shouldn't we all just shut up and thank our lucky stars we don't have to deal with all the stuff some of the other letters in the acronym have to put up with (leaving aside the fact that there are many aspec people who identify with more than one letter)?
So you know what? If you're aspec and you relate to anything I've said above (or can think of other things relating your your aspec-ness that I haven't mentioned) then this is me telling you now that it's enough. Even if we got rid of all the big stuff (which we're unlikely to do any time soon because— Shock! Horror!— the big stuff is actually connected to all the small stuff) we would still be unable to consider our fight 'over' because what you are experiencing is not 'basically okay' and something we should just be expected to 'put up with'.
No matter what anybody tells you, we have the right to demand more from life than this.
