Sirius had the most peculiar feeling, like he was floating above himself. His other self was lying on his bed, not moving. Oh. Oh no. He willed himself to reunite with his body but he remained levitating and started to panic. The panic was not helped when several people appeared through his bedroom wall. A young girl who looked like sheâd stepped out of Bridgerton, A tall man with a lovely face, curly hair, wearing a mustard yellow jumper and bellbottom jeans, a man wearing a suit jacket, white shirt with a loose tie and nothing else, and a man who looked like he wanted to be Kurt Cobain, or possibly fuck Kurt Cobain. Probably both.
âOh heavens!â The girl shrieked, âWhat happened?â
Sirius didnât know if he could speak but managed to mumble, âWhatâs happening to me?â
âLooks like you died.â Yellow jumper said bluntly, before adding âUh, sorry?â
âIâ what?â Sirius did his best to tear his eyes away from yellow jumper. Furious that a such a nice face could tell him such a malicious joke. But then his eyes were drawn to the other Sirius, still not moving.
âSome people stick around, like us. Some people move on.â Yellow jumper said slowly, pointing to the ceiling.
âI think heâll stay.â The half naked man tilted his head, looking at Sirius.âš
âI dunno.â Kurt Cobain wannabe also inspected him, âProbably doesnât want to stick around and watch his mates live without him.â
âYou know Iâm right here, yeah?â Sirius frowned. âDo I get to choose or do I just vanish?â
âI think it would have happened by now.â Yellow jumper matched his frown. âLooks like youâre staying.â

Ghosts AU
(Youtube has been showing me scenes from a show - I think "Ghosts" - in my shorts, and my brain began working)
Okay, so Magnus can not see ghosts. But his ex-girlfriend Camille could. (because, you know, somehow all the people in series who can see ghosts are always nice and good people, so why not have a bitch like Camille for a change?). And when they moved into an old mansion that had lots of ghosts, Magnus was all for helping Camille help the ghosts. Did all kinda things that Camille said the ghosts wanted so they may move on. But of course Camille lied about most of it. Even told Magnus that the ghosts don't really like him. Which is a lie, of course, they wish he would break up with her he deserves better! Anyway, one day Camille just up and leaves, at least leaves a break up letter telling him she is going to live with her lover who she has been cheating on him with for a long time. Weeks after that, Magnus realizes he needs a roomate or three, in order to generate enough money to pay off the mansion and all the things Camille made him cough up money for. Enter Alec, who can see ghosts as well.

Top chef Reality TV
Pairing: Simon "Ghost" Riley/Reader
Concepts about this
Top chefesque reality tv showÂ
Simon Riley is the videography for a top chef type show ,heâs been videography for reality tv for the past ten years the pay is not the best but he likes that with this type of work he is able to take off 4 straight months if he wanted to
He never gets attached to any of the contestants , he doesn't even watch the show when its done with productionÂ
You get casted after being in the final interviews for 2 years straight and you have been watching this show since you were a teenager with your grandma , she passed and thats when you decided to apply.Â
You've been working in New York as a sous chef for 4 years and you don't have that much experience but you know that you can cook and you have been watching the show for so long that you know what you need to do to win.
The first day on set you are so nervous but there is no camera crew in the room just the host which makes it easier to focus.Â
âToday we want you to make something with eggsâÂ
You knew this challenge was going to happen. You mean it is one of the most basic ingredients that can make almost anything. You decide to make a frittata, which is basically an opened quiche. It is a little risky and a lot of people that attempt to make the frittata usually fail. But you know you got this. You are sweating by the end of this , hair sticking to the back of your neck and your breath is coming out in short breaths. The dish does not look the best but it is done and it's not raw.Â
You finish in the middle of the pack which is fine with you. You are just happy to be done.Â
You meet Simon when you are filming the candid's, they wanted me to narrate why you decided to make the dish and how stressed you are. You took a liking to Simon almost immediately and you couldnât even see his face , he was wearing a face mask and had a camera covering a lot of his face. But he was exactly your type , dark , mysterious , and very much not interested in you. You donât know why you always get a crush on guys that would literally not care about you at all but somehow you do.Â
You hate doing these clips , you are not good at them because you know your thought process but making them into words that people that donât cook would understand is hard for you. You are so awkward and the producer very much feeds you what to say.Â
"So I decided to make a frittata" you say to the camera
"Why did you decide to make a frittata?", the producer ask , moving his finger signaling to keep going with your thoughts.
"Because I didn't want to make a quiche" you deadpan back.
And you notice that Simon smiles. And you become delusion.
You start to do things that a girl with a high school crush would do, put a little more makeup on when you have to film, start wearing more black⊠you almost do it subconsciously because you want him to want you for you but if you have to trick him then maybe that wonât be so bad. Â

Imagine a medieval!AU where Princess!reader is betrothed to King Macmillan. He's cold and distant to you and the only one who seems to show you the slightest sympathy is Sir Ojomo the knight tasked with your safety. He's the one taking you to all your dress fittings, he's the one who listens as you complain that your betrothed seems too busy with the Captain of the guards to even speak with you. That pesky man always glued by the kings side.
Sir Ojomo knows something you don't and he hates the king for it. The king will never love you no matter how much he tries, but this marriage will always be one of convenience and politics. You will produce his heir, but once a son is born he will likely never touch you again.
Though what Phillip hates the most is how he finds himself craving the company of the future queen. He hates how his mind is filled your laughs and corny jokes. He hates that when he closes his eyes at night his dreams are filled with nothing but your naked form and the way it would look glowing under the moonlight. He is a traitor to the crown for even having these dreams. For having these visions of the woman who belongs to his dearest friend the king.

Childhood Friends Au: Danny's in Gotham Again
when the wool is off your eyes you'll stop counting sheep at night cause you'll eat your fill of them during the daytime
A few weeks after Dannyâs visit to Gotham, he buys an apartment in the city. Itâs this little thing, a studio apartment on the same street he grew up in. In Crime Alley. When he tells his parents, they protest heavily. They donât think it's safe. They think he should reconsider. There were plenty of apartments and places to live somewhere else. And what about college?Â
Danny doesnât think heâll go to college. He isnât sure what he wants to do, now that being an astronaut is off the table. Itâd be a waste of money to go without a goal in mind, he thinks. He says heâll take a gap year and apply at one of the community colleges funded by the Wayne Corporation, possibly. It just wasnât in the cards right now.Â
âIf things get tough,â He says at dinner that night, âthen I can talk to the Waynes. Iâm friends with the family, remember?â He ended up getting Bruceâs number in his phone again before he left, and in the process got Timâs as well. They donât talk much, Danny isnât sure what to say. But he sends Tim memes whenever he comes across one and thinks heâll like. Tim sends memes back in return.  Â
His parents do remember. They remember. They also remember the horrified shriek that echoed through the house when Danny learned of Jasonâs passing. They remember running up the stairs and bursting into their sonâs room and finding him sobbing into his bed, curled up like a little kid, like he was in pain. He lost his voice that day, stuck between screaming out his grief and sobbing it.Â
Theyâre still not sure if they should let him go.Â
In the end, Danny wins them out, and he lets them help him search for an apartment. They take a break from their lab work to help search for cheap furniture to buy. They may have more money than when they were in Gotham, but that frugal part of you never fully goes away. They all agree that they donât want Danny to be seen carrying in nice-looking furniture when he moves in.Â
He ends up with a basic furniture set, all mismatched, and in the warm summer of June, his parents rent out a u-haul and drive him down to Gotham to move in. They meet the landlord when they arrive, a skinny and frail old man with wispy white hair and a wrinkled face. He gives Danny the keys and tells him what apartment number he is, and then he leaves.Â
His parents help him move in. They help him carry his heavy furniture up to the second floor, where his apartment is. Danny isnât sure if he wants them to help. His mom and dad are strong, but they are getting old, closer to their fifties now that their children are grown. His dadâs hair is slowly beginning to thin, and rather than the white eating at the sides of his head, it now streaks through his hair like salt-and-pepper. His momâs hair is graying out too, and there are more lines in their faces than he remembers there being.Â
When he voices his concerns, his mom laughs spiritedly and says that they may be getting old, but they are still as spry as when they were in their twenties. Danny isnât sure if he believes them or not. He can see his dad struggle a bit when they return to get his bed frame, and they have to take a break before they go back down for the rest of their things.Â
Five years ago, his dad could do this without breaking a sweat. It forces a heavy thing in the back of Dannyâs throat. (He is less afraid of his own death than he is of his loved ones, and while he has always felt rocky with his parents, he still loves them more than anything else.)Â
Dannyâs apartment is exactly as he would have expected it to be: shabby and worn through. The entire room smells like stale cigarette smoke and weed, nicotine stains the wall with poorly covered bullet holes, and stains in the carpet that are a color he canât discern. The fridge has a broken light and when he tries to turn on the gas stove, it click-click-clicks before lighting, fire fwooshing out while the smell of gas fills the air. Thereâs rat droppings in the cupboards and the closet-like bathroom is just as bad.Â
The ghostly part of him can sense the heavy stench of death in the room; people have died in this room. People have died in every room of this building, he thinks. They have died on the streets outside and in the alleys squeezed between them. He can feel it like a heavy fog in the air.Â
It is painfully nostalgic, a bittersweet feeling in his chest that he grimaces to.Â
When the last box is placed in his apartment, his parents offer to help unpack. They are hesitant to leave and Danny knows it, although he doesnât know if itâs from empty nest syndrome or because it's Gotham. He thinks it might be both. He is their youngest child finally leaving home to a city known for its danger.Â
âAre you sure you donât want us to stay behind, sweetie?â His mother asks, a frown she tries to hide settled in the creases of her face. She fiddles with her hands, a nervous habit Danny has since noticed when she feels truly unsure and doesnât need to hide it. Hesitancy looms over her like a heavy cloud.Â
His dad jumps in hastily, splaying his hands and smiling painfully wide to hide the glistening in his eyes. âYouâre motherâs right! We can help you get everything set up, champ. I could probably do something with that stove of yours to make it faster!â He says, his voice still booming like it always does even if thereâs a stumble in his words.Â
It makes his heart squeeze, knowing just how much they care. It was hard last summer, telling him that he was the Phantom. Terrifying, actually. They couldnât comprehend it. He hadnât felt his heart beat that fast in years when he stood in front of them at the kitchen table and told them he was a halfa, begging them to believe that ghosts werenât inherently evil.Â
His parents were people of science, however, and after much, much shock, they slowly came to terms with it. How could they not? The evidence was right in front of them. Their son was dead-alive, alive-dead. Somewhere stuck in the between. The tears they shed that night could fill a river, moving from the kitchen to the living room as Danny explains how he died.Â
(When Danny tells them that he died after a week Jason did, his mom and dad look horrified. His mom covers her mouth when he adds that it was his idea to go inside it, his dad looks ashy pale, gripping his pant legs so tight that his knuckles turn white. There is a conclusion coming to their minds that he can tell they donât like.)Â
(âYouâve always hated our inventions, Danny.â Mom says in a hushed voice, and Danny winces at the wording, sinking into the back of the cushions in shame. He never thought that his parents noticed. Mom quickly grabs his arm, âNo, no, thereâs nothing to be ashamed of Danny. We were⊠perhaps too careless with our inventions, too enthusiastic. You had every right to hate the things we made when they had a tendency to⊠to malfunction.â)Â
(Malfunction is a delicate way of putting it, when Danny remembers every time they had to evacuate their old apartment complex because whatever half-baked creation his parents made inevitably blew up into ash and smoke. There were soot marks permanently stained into the ceiling.)Â
(Her hand slides down and grabs his, and she cups it in both of her hands, squeezing tightly. He forces himself to look up, and there is a look like her heart breaking when he looks into his motherâs eyes. âYouâve always avoided the lab after we moved, Danny. And you had every right to, so why on Earth did you ever think about going into the portal?â)
(Danny struggles to come up with an adequate answer, a way to verbalize what came over him that day five years ago. The answer is there, hanging in the air like a knot in a noose. He opens his mouth, and then closes it.)
(Finally, with a tongue made of lead, he shrugs lamely and looks away. âI didnât know there was an on button inside it.â He mumbles, and despite being the truth it feels like a lie. But that is the truth. He didnât know there was an on button inside it. So he didnât care what happened.)
(Something dulls in momâs eyes, like she thought of something else that Danny hadnât said. Her eyes shimmer, and she squeezes them shut, breathing in so deep that it shakes. And then she pulls him into a hug, a hand burying into his hair and pressing him close. âIt must have hurt so much, sweetheart. Iâm so sorry.â)
(It is something that Danny doesnât expect her to say, like missing the last step of the stairs. It startles him so much he laughs this short, bark of a thing. He feels his dad press against his back and wrap his big arms around them, his nose pushed into his hair.)Â
(Because yeah. Yeah, it did hurt. It hurt more than anything else heâs ever felt before. It had torn him apart and sewn him back together again, only to rinse and repeat. The pain was nothing he ever spoke to Sam or Tucker about, and it was something they never brought up. No, thatâs not true. If they ever brought it up, Tucker would call it a zap. As if Danny only experienced a mild static shock. Like it was painless. Itâs a pretty lie that Danny lets him and Sam believe.)
(His eyes sting and water immediately wobbles into his vision, coming up with such a force that he doesnât even need to blink before it spills over. âYeah.â He forces out, voice unexpectedly rough and cracking. âYeah, it- it hurt. A lot.â)
He tells them about fighting the Lunch Lady a month later. He tells them about finding Jason. It comes spilling out like a waterfall. âI found him, mom.â He says, holding onto her tight while she keeps him tucked under his chin like a little kid. The secret of Jason being Robin stays hidden under his tongue, it is not his secret to tell. Not his identity to expose. He grips her tighter. âI found him, mom. Right there in the Ghost Zone, and he was my Jason. He wasnât an echo or aâ an imprint of him.â
Mom is silent; quiet and attentive, and so is dad, who rubs his large hands up and down Dannyâs spine in an attempt to soothe him. It only works a little. Danny breathes in like a gasp as the urge to cry overcomes him again. He always avoids talking about Jason, his grief is like a never-healing scab that can be picked off at any time. It is ingrained into his core.Â
âAnd then I lost him.â He forces out, a sob layering under his words that he chokes on and swallows. The hand on his back stills, and he can feel mom and dad breathe in like a question. He turns his head and pushes it into momâs shoulder. âHe disappeared, mom. Justâ just gone.â
âAnd he didnât move on.â He says, voice snarling like teeth biting before his mom can ask, because he knows thatâs what she was going to ask. Itâs what Sam and Tucker asked when he came to them in tears hours after he found Jason gone. Itâs what Jazz said when he finally told her about it. Itâs what every one of his ghosts asked when he told them about it and begged for their help.Â
Danny grits his teeth and tries not to dig his nails into momâs clothes as a fresh wave of tears run down his face. âHis haunt is still there. If Jason really moved on it would have disappeared with him. Thatâs how it works. But itâs still in the zone, so Jasonâs out there I just donât know where.âÂ
(Sam once asks him why Danny didnât just move on from it a year after Jasonâs disappearance. She asked him why he didnât give it up. Danny nearly saw red, and nearly bit her head off for it. It was incomprehensible to him to just stop looking for Jason, to give up. Not when he was out in the zone somewhere. Because he had to be in the zone.)
(Danny once tried to take Jason through the portal with him, and much like what happened to Kitty, it didnât work. Jason was too tied to the ghost zone to leave.)Â
(Some bonds are just unbreakable, he thinks. Bonds forged through blood and time and trust, and when youâre on the streets of Gotham, you hoard what little trust you have in someone like a dragon with its gold. It is scarcely given and fiercely kept.)Â
âIâve been looking for him.â Danny whispers when talking becomes too hard for him, when it runs the risk of him crying. âWhen- when Iâm not fighting ghosts or, or in school or with my friends, Iâve been looking for him.â He has explored the Ghost Zone in every reach he can. He has met so many people. Heâs met the ghosts of aliens from planets in every corner of the galaxy. He has met gods or god-like beings and their disciples.Â
Heâs met famous scholars and writers (heâs gotten the autographs of all of Jasonâs favorite writers). He has found entire cities that have so much life in it that it's been permanently etched into the ghost zone, like a mirror version of itself.Â
Heâs visited the ghostly vision of Gotham so many times, and he avoids the imprint of Wayne Manor like the plague. There are ghostly newspapers that he reads. There are the ghosts of Martha and Thomas Wayne in many of them.Â
Jasonâs haunt connects to Wayne Manor, but it is also the street they grew up in. It is a small brick building with a door that leads to Jasonâs room. A ghost knows when someone enters their haunt, it alerts them like a doorbell in the back of their mind. A foreign ecto-signature in a place drenched in your own.Â
Danny visits it every time he goes into the Ghost Zone. Itâs always his first stop.Â
He tells his parents all of it. He tells them of the ghosts heâs met, of the places heâs seen. And when he feels brave, he tells them about Rath and the terror that his future self brings him. He keeps some details hidden, the ones that he can afford to keep without muddling up the story.Â
(Rath is a tall, spindly thing, like a funhouse mirror version of Danny himself. He has arms that are much too long and legs that are much too tall, with skinny fingers that extend into claws.He wears his suit the same as Danny does, with it partially undone and the sleeves wrapped around his waist.)
(There is a black hole in his chest that is much bigger than Dannyâs own. It takes up his chest cavity and drips the same, viscous black liquid as the tears falling from his eyes. Danny never forgets his voice; a scraping, quiet thing like heâs screamed himself hoarse. Rath has a voice like goosebumps, and it haunts Danny like a bump in the night.)Â
Danny speaks and speaks and speaks until he canât think of anything else to speak of. He is tired and sad, and it feels like his heart has been ripped out and rubbed raw again. And yet, he also feels so much better. Like a long heavy weight has been taken off his chest.Â
Yeah, last summer was hard. His parents walked on eggshells around him, and they forced themselves to unlearn their bias of ghosts. It was more than Danny could have ever dreamed of, and when they felt ready for it, they asked him more about the ghost zone.
He smiles sadly at his dad, âI think fixing the stove can be a priority another time, dad.â He says, watching him wilt and his smile fall. Jack Fenton was always so good at making himself look like a kicked puppy. âI can handle unpacking by myself, I promise.âÂ
His parents still look so unsure, like they want to argue. Danny watches his mom purse her lips tightly, confliction running across her face like a datastream. She takes dadâs hand, squeezing their fingers together despite the droop in her shoulders.Â
âOh, alright then, I suppose.â She relents, her hand placing on Jackâs arm. âI guess we could go, weâre just going to miss you so much, Danny.âÂ
Tears seem to have won over his dad, and Jack Fenton sniffs back before he can cry properly. âOur little boy, all grown up.â He says, voice wobbling. It makes Danny laugh, and it makes his heart pang. His smile grows impossibly wider and so much fonder. âYouâve become such a kind, wonderful young man, Danno. Weâre so proud of you.âÂ
Danny laughs again, and it cracks. âYouâre gonna make me cry, dad.â (He feels a welling of guilt in his gut that he ignores â he doesnât feel like a kind man. He doesnât feel like a good one either. Not with what he plans to do.)Â
His father holds out his arms in hopefulness, âOne last hug for your old man before we head out?â He asks, mustering up a smile on his face.Â
Danny barrels into him, nearly knocking his dad over with an oomph. Heâs as tall as him now, but he still feels little in his bear hugs. With arms wrapping around his middle, Danny hugs his father tight and breathes him in one last time.Â
âCareful there, Danno.â He laughs, patting Dannyâs back roughly. âYouâll break my ribs with that ghostly strength of yours!â But he holds on just as tight.
Out of spite, Danny bends back and lifts him off his feet, laughing when Jack tenses up and nearly scrambles out of surprise. His mom laughs with him, stepping back to give them room for the few seconds that dad is in the air.Â
When itâs his momâs turn, Danny has to hunch to hug her. Something bittersweet to him as she plants a kiss on his forehead and says that heâll always be her baby. âEven if you do have that horrid smoking habit.â She adds on with a disapproving eyebrow raise.Â
Danny turns red in embarrassment, and walks them back to the GAV. Gothamites of all kinds slow to stop and boggle at the monstrous, road-illegal thing that is parallel-parked next to the curbside. In the past, Danny would have died with mortification to be seen with it. Now it just makes him laugh. Before he goes back into the apartment building, he buys a newspaper from a nearby convenience store. Â
The first thing he does when he gets back up to his room is one: make a mental note to buy a bicycle chain lock for the door. The locks jiggle and there are splinters along the side that show signs of it being broken into in the past. The second thing he does is pull his cigarettes out of his pocket and light one.Â
Danny starts to unpack with a cigarette hanging from his mouth, placing the newspaper he bought onto the counter. He has a cheap loveseat that he pushes off to the side, and he moves the boxes into the kitchen. Itâs a matter of organization that Danny has to think about before he does anything.Â
Itâs as heâs pushing the sofa up against the wall facing the windows that his phone rings a familiar tune: Sam. The phone is fished out before he can think about it and when he stares down at the screen, he realizes it's a facetime call.Â
He presses answer and walks over to prop his phone up onto the counter. The smiling faces of Sam and Tucker greet him, rather than just Sam. Immediately, Danny grins. âHey Danny.â Sam greets, smiling a dark-painted lazy thing. From the background it looks like theyâre in Tuckerâs room. Sam is in Tuckerâs desk chair, and Tucker is behind her, leaning against it. âHave you moved in yet?âÂ
Danny pulls the cigarette from his mouth and huffs, a cloud of smoke following his breath. âYeah! Itâs a shithole.â He grins lopsidedly, and his feet carry him off to the side to allow Sam and Tucker view of his apartment. He lets thirty seconds pass, allowing the both of them to really see the rest of the room. And then he steps back into frame.Â
Sam and Tucker both look like theyâre trying not to look judgemental, like theyâre trying to hide a grimace that Danny sees anyway with the small turns at the corner of their mouths. He grins wider, mirth filling his lungs. âI know, it looks awful doesnât it?â
âItâsâ itâs not so bad.â Sam says with a strain in her voice, a forced smile on her face that tries to be reassuring. Tucker nods along readily, and he looks just as unsure as Sam does. Danny stifles laughter behind his teeth.Â
âNo, no, it looks bad,â He takes a drag of his cigarette, shaking his head. âYou can say it, I wonât get offended. Itâs a fucking apartment in crime alley. Of course it looks bad.âÂ
Sam remains silent, a rearing of her stubbornness showing itself. Tucker takes a different approach, and heaves a dramatic sigh of relief, slumping like a weight. âOkay, youâre right. It looks bad.â He frowns, âSorry, man.âÂ
While Danny snorts, Sam sighs. âYeah, it looks bad. What even are those stains?â She asks, and both she and Tucker lean closer in tandem to the screen, eyes squinting at the floor behind him. Danny glances at the floor, and shrugs.Â
âBlood, probably.â He says, and while years in Amity Park have accustomed him to a clean environment, the desensitization of Gotham still remains. Tucker and Sam both make faces and lean away, as if the stain itself was capable of passing through to them. âYeah, there are bullet holes in the walls.âÂ
âAre you sure itâs safe to be there?â Tucker asks, a furrow appearing between his brows. He adjusts his glasses and leans against the chair. Sam is frowning heavily, and Danny can already see her thinking up of a new way to fix the problem.Â
âOh, I never said this place was safe.â Danny tells him cheerily, taking a last hit of his cigarette before placing the dead stick onto the counter. He itches for another one. Instead he walks over to the shelf his parents brought in and starts moving it. âItâs Crime Alley, Tuck. Safe isnât even in its vocabulary.âÂ
Tucker and Sam look like theyâve both swallowed a lemon.
âBut itâs where I want to be right now.â He says, grunting quietly when the shelf is against the wall he wants it to be, near the short hallway leading to the front door. He can push it in front of it if someone tries to break in. âAnd Crime Alleyâs apartments are the only ones I can really afford right now without mooching off my parents, and Iâd rather not depend on them.âÂ
He can hear the disapproving hesitance from where he stands. And he ignores it.Â
Danny walks back into frame, lifting up a box onto the counter. He hums lightly, fingers run over the tape keeping it shut. âWhy do you even want to be in Gotham, Danny?â Sam asks, and she sounds genuinely perplexed. Danny stills. âI thought this place only had bad memories for you.âÂ
His blood turns cold, and like a dime being flipped his slow heartbeat fills his ears. âIt does.â He replies automatically, before he can think. Shit, shit. He knows that Sam or Tucker would ask that question, and yet he still feels unprepared for it. His heart pulses quickly against his ribcage, knocking, asking him what heâs going to tell them that isnât the truth.Â
Danny stammers, âI meanâ I justâ I guess I felt nostalgic.â He says, and it sounds like a weak defense. He looks away, finding himself instinctively scratching his jaw. A new tick of his when heâs nervous. From the corner of his eye, he sees Sam and Tucker both narrow their eyes at him.Â
He cannot tell them the real reason why heâs moved back to Gotham. He canât tell them of the little secret and vow he told himself five years ago, the one thatâs been left to fester and burn like an open wound close to his core. The one that, if he thinks too much about it, sends a searing hot electricity through him, filling him from crown to toe top-full of direst wrath. Â
(Danny was always the angrier one in the duo of Jason and Danny. He was always the one with glass in his mouth, cutting his teeth and tongue so that he could spit blood at the world around them. His knuckles had more blood and bruises on it than skin, once upon a time. All because he couldnât keep his mouth shut. He has grown from it, that fury has turned to a small simmering candle.) (But sometimes, sometimes it rears its head, and electricity will buzz under Dannyâs skin. There is lightning before the thunder, the second before a fist pulled to punch lands, the spark before it becomes a blaze.)Â
He stumbles over his words, and then sighs long and low, drooping his head. âI⊠was thinking that I canât avoid this place forever.â He says, and the best lies always have the truth in it. Because itâs not a lie, not completely. But itâs not close enough to the truth either. âAnd that maybe if I came back, Iâd be able to do something about those bad memories. Make them better or make it hurt less.âÂ
Like wool over their eyes, it fools Sam and Tucker. Their narrowed eyes soften, and Danny feels like a snake is in his lungs as they both adopt their own versions of gentleness on their faces. âOh, Danny.â Sam breathes out, and the snake squeezes, âOf course, we understand.â
Tucker nods, smiling at him. âYeah, bro, thatâs really brave of you. I know it canât be easy coming back.â He says, âMaybe you can reconnect with the Waynes again, you always thought well of Mister Wayne whenever you came back from visiting.â
Danny smiles weakly, the gesture cutting into his cheeks like a knife. Perhaps he could. He was still upset with Bruce for hiding Jasonâs killer from him. But he doesnât hate him. Maybe five years ago, he did, when the death of Jason was still fresh in his mind and freshly bleeding in his heart. Now he just doesnât know what to think of him. He was Batman. Jason was Robin, and the Joker killed Robin.Â
It would need to be something heâd have to speak to Bruce about in person, he thinks, in order to resolve it. To hear his judgment on it and make an opinion from there. Danny has learned in the last five years, much to Jazzâs smug delight, that talking to people about something he was upset about did make him feel better.Â
The conversation slips on from there into something more light, more breathable. And while they talk, Danny unpacks. He sets up his bed in the corner of the room, adjacent to the windows, and unpacks his cheap TV and table stand. Itâs directly across from the couch, in front of the windows. He puts up knicks and knacks heâs collected over the years on the shelves.
When he puts up the curtains, he notices that more than one frame jiggles loosely. Sam makes a comment on the musty stains permanently dyed into the glass, and Danny talks about getting something to fix the cracks. Gotham winters can get brutal, and even if he can withstand the cold, doesnât mean everything else in his apartment can.Â
âOh, watch this.â He says halfway through unpacking, and pulls out a stick of thick white chalk from a box. âThis is something I learned from Clockwork a while back; I think he knew I was going to move to Gotham.â He grins sillily, popping into the camera frame to show them. âI wonder how?âÂ
Sam rolls her eyes, smiling while Tucker huffs. âItâs not like heâs the Master of Time and can see all past, present, and future.â Tucker snarks.Â
Danny hums lightly, curt like he isnât sure he believes Tucker, and walks to a piece of bare wall not yet blocked by furniture. He starts to draw on it. The chalk shimmers with faint ectoplasm on the wall.Â
âUhhâŠâ Tuckerâs voice cuts through, âAre you sure you should be doing that? Wonât you get in trouble for that?â
âThere are bullet holes in the plaster, Tucker.â Danny retorts dryly, arching his hand to make a big circle. âI donât think the landlord is gonna care if I get washable chalk on his walls.â Inside the circle, he inscribes the symbols of the Infinite Realms. âI donât think heâd be able to see it anyways, he was really old.âÂ
When he is done, Danny steps back to admire his work. Itâs not bad, he thinks, for a lack of practice. He tosses the chalk off to the side, it lands on the couch and rolls back into the cushions. Ectoplasm heats under his hand, slowly glowing from his fingertips before stretching down the rest of his palm.Â
Dannyâs fingers press against the wall, into the center of the circle. The result is immediate, ectoplasm is siphoned off his hand and into the circle. It glows, and then swirls. He steps off to the side for Sam and Tucker to watch its transformation. The circle fills with a swirling pool of ectoplasm, like a smaller version of the basement portal, and then it warps and stretches.Â
It fills out a rectangular shape, shifting like taffy being pulled this way and that, before settling into a solid shape. It solidifies, and instead of a wall there is a glowing purple door, warped in nature and seemingly shifting like a trick of the eyes. He can hear the gentle hum of the zone standing next to it, and can see the carving of the circle in the wood.Â
He gestures dramatically, grinning from ear to ear. âTa-da~â He sings, âA door to my haunt! For whenever I feel like visiting it.â He pats the wood, making a strange thunk-thunk sound. âAnd then watch this.âÂ
Danny touches the circle again, and the door twists and recedes like water going down a drain. The circle flashes bright green, and then fades into nothing on the wall, invisible to the naked eye. âI can hide it whenever I want! So if I ever invite someone overââ which he doubts, ââI wonât have to worry about them asking, âHey Danny? Why is there a creepy fucking door in your studio apartment?ââ
He gets a pair of laughs for his efforts, and Danny grins wider.Â
Sam and Tucker have to end the call when Danny is nearly done unpacking, leaving him alone with only his thoughts and the Gotham ambience outside. There were only a few boxes left, and they promise to call him tomorrow. He tells them that they better keep that promise.Â
The silence that follows after they leave feels somberly, as if the reality of moving in has finally set in and filled the air with its loneliness. With its change. Finally, Danny lets the strangeness of moving back to Gotham hit him when he reaches the last box, and he stops to take another smoke break to let it settle.Â
It feels so strange to be back in Gotham, he thinks. Heâs all grown up, or almost grown up. He can vote and pay taxes, but he doesnât feel much older than he was at fourteen. Thereâs a disconnect that makes him feel sad.Â
There are cars running outside, driving by. He can only catch glimpses of them, his apartment faces an alleyway. There are dogs barking in the distance, strays he bets. Itâs already dark out, and he wonders if he looks out the window he would see the bat-signal shining through the night and staining the permanent cloud that hangs over Gotham.Â
Bruce would be so disappointed if he learned the reason for Dannyâs return to Gotham. But Dannyâs not here for him. Heâs here for someone far more important. And like that, the simmering anger that has tucked itself into the furthest corners of his heart starts slipping through. His heart has teeth, ready to strike and snarl and bite.Â
He crushes the cigarette in his hand and throws it away. When he opens the last box, it is with hands that tremble and with a face of stone. With a delicateness he does not feel, he reaches in and pulls a corkboard from the box. On the corner frame is a small, near inconspicuous carving of another ghost rune.Â
Danny hangs it up on an empty space on the wall, out of sight from the window. Itâs plain, and he has nothing to pin to it. He presses the small rune on the corner, pushing ectoplasm into it. Unlike the door, it does not twist and warp and shape itself into something new. Instead it bursts into green flame, eating away at the board and revealing the same thing underneath it, just in dark blue-black-purple.Â
Now this board, this board Danny has something to pin to it. The newspaper he bought earlier sits abandoned on the counter, and Danny unrolls it with something like viciousness in his chest. On the front page is an image of a damaged street, and above it is titled: âJOKER STRIKES AGAIN, 3 DEAD AND 27 INJUREDâ
Danny rips out the first page, he rips out every mention of him. His hands shake and threaten to crumple the paper as he turns back to the board, there is hot blood pounding in his ears. There is an impending sense of finally in his chest, like a setting sun giving the stage to a starless night. There is a stern set in his jaw, five years of festering rage rushing forth like a tidal wave, threatening to make his vision swim.Â
It would be so easy, he thinks, to go out as Phantom right now and hunt the clown down. It would only take a night. All it would take is a night, and then he could sink his hands into the Jokerâs chest and rip out his heart where he stood. It would be so easy.Â
The thought alone forces Danny to stop as he is hit with another rush of fury, really making his head and vision swim. Thorny vines wrap around his throat, making it hard to breathe. He stares at a spot on the wall until the shaking passes.Â
If he wants to be discreet about this, then he canât do it now. Even if he wants to. He doesnât want witnesses. He doesnât want an audience. He made a mistake, telling Red Hood about his plan. He wasnât sure what he was thinking. Perhaps he wasnât thinking at all. But he can only hope that the Hood hasnât mentioned it to Bruce. He knows it hasnât been long since they started working together. He hopes that the Hood has already forgotten about it.Â
He pins the newspaper clippings onto the black-blue-board, and stands back. Itâs bare now, but it wonât be forever.Â
He presses the circle again, and the pinboard reverts back to its original blank state.Â

Was I expecting to make a third part?? No. No I was not. I was also not expecting to make an entire google doc filled with summaries for short story ideas about this au that all tie into each other so that way if i DO continue this i have a skeleton pathway to follow rather than making everything up from scratch and potentially cornering myself

Ok since Monika still has her admin powers in the side stories you think she could just discover them accidentally or use them without realizing
Anyways au where Monika and friends discover her admin powers but dont know about the wider context of what it means. So they just go around thinking Monika has magic and try practicing with a bunch of silly fun shenanigans because they figure itâs some chosen one bloodline stuff and not like. A product of their reality being a constricted digital science experiment.
This au will not end well
#yeah she probably needs the epiphany to consciously use it but hypothetical aus are fun and the angst potential it plentiful#the beauty of this au is that it contains potential for both wacky slice of life escapades and soul crushing angst#theyâre like doing a dumb 3am ghost summoning ritual and Monika accidentally does some admin stuff and theyâre like âwoah your magicâ#and they research a bunch of other dumb stupid rituals and nearly set the carpet on fire#they like try to rob a bank or cheat on a test and nearly delete half a building#and then at some point Monika suddenly extends her admin powers too far and acts real despondent for no reason#because she ends up epiphany beaming herself and is even more conflicted than base game because she grows so much more connected to the club#itâs even worse because they were her whole world and she knows so much she sees how human they are but they just arenât apparently?????#and while she canât pull a base game and kill everyone for a nonexistent player she still goes through so much angst and like#the girls notice and want to help but donât know how because she wonât tell anyone and she keeps avoiding them and like aauughhh#it would probably end with Monika doing something drastic and trying to reach out for anyone out there who understands#and idk maybe sheâll find base game Monika post act 4 and sheâs like âwhat the heck why did you abandon your friends donât to what I did???â#and maybe she could fix her mistakes???? maybe not??????? whateverâs narratively fulfilling#shoot this was supposed to be a short post for a silly au what have I done#this feels like the plot of a kids tv show where the plot randomly gets really dark on its fifth season#also realizing al lot of the same plot points happen in my fantasy au so I really gotta get to that too#ddlc#doki doki literature club#tempestmothtalk

DP X DC AU the Batkids recognize Danny because they've seen his TV Show!
.....
Discuss.
(I just think it is an untapped vein of humor and shenanigans, if not Truman's world style moral drama, to have the Batkids not only immediately recognize and know Danny but are able to sing his fuckin theme song at him. đ đđ)
#i just imagine Tim Dick and Jason in various states of mouth wide open when they see Danny#totally doibg the spiderman pointing meme#like they totally think theyve been hit with some hallucinogen cuz theres no way Danny Phantom from the cartoon is here!#and Dannys like uh how tf do u know my name#and somebodys gotta jump in like â DUDE YOU'RE DANNY PHANTOM FROM TV! YOU'RE HIM * insert theme song*â#and some else has gotta do that voice from the end of the intro thats like â hes a phantomâ#and somebody else probably Dick is all like â IM GOING GHOSTâ#and we pan over to Danny and he is deer in headlights freaked tf out as these bats fanboy over their childhood cartoon hero#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#dp x dc au#danny fenton#danny phantom#batman#batfam#red robin#tim drake#dick grayson#nightwing#red hood#jason todd#DC

First off, Roier is dead. Suuuuper dead. Heâs dead, and heâs been stuck in the Quesadilla Hotel for the past forty goddamn years, and he canât see himself moving on any time soon. Heâs got unfinished business, and he refuses to move into the Beyond until he sees that man dead.
But itâs not all bad, being dead. The hotel is full of ghosts just like him, and he even gets along with most of them. Like Jaiden, who was blown up in a demolitions accident back in the 90s. And Foolish, who drowned in the hotelâs decorative fountain while high off his ass in the 70s. And Rivers, who choked on a chicken bone in the hotelâs restaurant just in 2018.
But, really, itâs kinda lonely sometimes. Eventually, his friends will all move on, and heâll be all alone again.
And then, one day, thereâs a police chase down the road complete with gunshots, and Roier peeks out the window just in time to watch a van full of people crash into the hotelâs side. It explodes on impact, killing everyone inside, and, suddenly, the hotelâs got five more ghosts in it and Roierâs got a new friend in a guy who definitely wasnât on the run for murder when he was killed.
#happy halloween!! loosely based off of ghosts the tv show#not the American one either ew#qsmp ghost au

AU idea : Sun and Moon but they're ghosts. Sun is a kind one that manifest during the day and Moon a fucking poltergeist messing around the house every night to scare the new owner away.
Reader/OC absolutely doesn't care and can't afford to move out anyway so they just. Live with it. Casually.
At some point they have to take care of their baby niece/nephew and during the night witness Moon over the babyphone taking care of the child after they had a nightmare.

thinkbing about. him
#random thoughts#fnaf#rotating him in my mind like an orb or perhapps a microwavable tv dinner#love the idea of a character who for some reason has him in their house and does regular maintenance on him#someone who worked for fazbear fright and fucking. stole him#au where the place wasn't burned down and actually opened and some kid started working there and fucking took his ass#springtrap in my head is like. mostly an animal. running on instinct and ancient programming. only rarely lucid#the kid who took him oh my god. what if someone who was the sibling of one of the five missing kids stole him#and like. they know he's the man behind the slaughter and can remember him from when he was alive#and they take him and keep him running as like a form of torture. because fazbear fright was gonna be shut down and the animatronic#was gonna be destroyed or smth and they were like 'no you son of a bitch not yet'#and they can sometimes see the ghosts of the children and employees who died and henry. but like they're not done#they cant let go. not yet.#cant let him go to the beyond because that would be too merciful for a son of a bitch like him#but springtrap cant really understand whats happening and mostly just sees Some Guy keeping him running so most of his feelings#are positive#when he's semi lucid he tries to kill them#when he recognizes them from before he kind of shuts down#the range is 'friend!!!' to 'i am going to fucking murder you' to 'how did you do in pe today'#like this guy mostly isn't william afton. idk who he is but he isn't him most of the time#i imagine the springtrap suit is a unique model so its hard to get replacement parts for him so most of him is custom at this point#idk what they do with the bones. probably leave them alone for the most part out of fear of him passing on if they got rid of them#he smells like dirt and mildew and restroom deoderizer probably#i imagine their thoughts on him are 'i recognize this mostly isnt the man who killed my sibling so i dont want him to suffer'#'but also i cant handle the idea of even a little of the man who killed my sibling being able to stop suffering'#like this is william's idea of hell. complete depersonalization#they make his stay tolerable. decent maintenance. idk what kind of enrichment he needs#being kept in a basement away from regular social interaction is probably hell for any children's animatronic#so he loves when they come down for maintenance. probably rarely at first and then more frequently as they adjust themself to his presence#idk how he feels about maintenance. probably very used to the feeling of having a dude inside of him lmaooo
