I know it’s unlikely given how they are in the show, but imagine if Maddie and Jack didn’t take Danny telling them he’s half ghost very well and long story short, gets adopted by Frostbite. So Manny goes to meet Danny’s dad (he knows Danny doesn’t have a mom, just a dad) and meets Frostbite, but instead of being scared of the giant ghost yeti like a normal person, he just shrugs and goes along with it. He probably knows Danny was once a normal human and that he died when he was younger, I mean he jokes about it all the time and it’s almost concerning, but imagine Manny asking Danny if he’s going to grow a tail and horns in the future. Or making another joke like “I can see where you get your tall genes from.”
OKAY BUT THIS WOULD MAKE A REALLY FUN AU ACTUALLY
Like imagine if Danny stayed in his ghost form almost 24/7, even outside the ghost zone, because he didn't take well to being rejected by his parents. The OG Unite group (SB, Timmy, & Jimmy) would of course all know, he'd shift back to human form around them on occasion, but when Jenny and Manny join the team, Danny automatically stays in ghost form so the two just assume that Danny's a full ghost.
And yeah, Manny would totally not bat an eye the first time meeting Frostbite, or the fact that Danny introduces the yeti as his dad. Manny grew up in Miracle City, all the parent/child duos he's met before all resemble each other so of course he'd ask when Danny's horns are supposed to grow in. Danny would laugh and change the subject without answering the question, but Manny's not (completely) stupid, he knows his question struck a nerve he wasn't expecting. He doesn't poke at it, because he wants to respect Danny's privacy, but he does start noticing and naturally picking up certain pieces of information; such as Walker making an off-handed comment to Danny about the "Good-for-nothing Humans" he tossed aside have some new project that's disrupting to peace of the Ghost Zone, or Timmy making a joke about them both knowing what it's like having shitty parents (which is definitely odd because with the way Frostbite was practically fawning over Danny's well-being the few times they visited the Far Frozen, Manny would not use the word 'shitty' to describe Danny's yeti-dad).
Like we know Danny can't keep ghost form when he loses consciousness or falls asleep, so now imagine a scenario in which the Unite Team has a mission that takes them into space in Jimmy's universe. For science/plot reason, they wouldn't be able to return until they got back to Earth, so inside Jimmy's spaceship they're all starting to nod off one by one until Danny and Manny are the only one's still awake. In his exhaustion, Danny rests his head on Manny's shoulder (Manny starts screaming 'FUCK YEAH' in his head), but then he falls asleep and accidentally shifts back to his human form for the first time, nearly freaking Manny out. Because now his totally cute teammate is no long a ghost but a full, flesh-and-blood, human that radiating actual body heat, is asleep on top of him and Manny does not know how he's supposed to process this information.
Danny wakes up when they get back to Earth, (Manny didn't sleep at all) realizes what he did, and will open up about everything. The next day, they'd need to restrain Manny from jumping to Danny's universe and razing Fentonworks to the ground.
#anon#ask#I just really like the idea of Manny being a little bit of a yandere when it comes to Danny like:#“You clearly didn't appreciate the wonderful person that Danny is when you had him in your life so I'mma beat ya'll up now.”#but danny's gotta hold him back because even tho he wants nothing to do with his parents they're still his parents and he holds onto#what little hope he has that they'll come around eventually#i know i write everything with the intent that the Fentons actually become good supportive parents but omggggg would this AU be juciy#like Danny just intentially doesn't give full truths and just lets people draw their own conclusions#with means this whole au would be ripe for the miscommunication trope#Aether and I have been lowkey writing an AU similar to this in our dm's and this ask makes me want to revisit that lol#honestly my creativity has been bursting lately#but we'll see if that actually translates to me post any of the fics i'm brainstorming lol#nicktoons unite#tigerghost#danny phantom#el tirgre
