#and Mortified is my favorite dp fic ever

[mediumsizedpidegon]

this is an uhinged crossover but. PIDW Luo Binghe finds Xin Mo and makes a portal to get out of the Abyss. Except– he's been in a constant cycle of hurt and conflict with no rest in between. So maybe he fucks it up. Maybe Xin Mo is at fault. It doesn't matter. The end result is the same: Luo Binghe opens a portal and it splits him apart and spits him out different, in a strange, new place. (Luo Binghe's half-human, half-demon. Now half-ghost is added to the list.)

I just really like the idea of Luo Binghe being removed from his suffering– both the Abyss and the cultivation world in which his abuser is a very influential figure. And he's angry, he wants revenge, but Xin Mo's gone, broken by the act of being brought to the Ghost Zone. What does he do, now that that avenue of revenge isn't available to him anymore? How do you cope, when the one thing propelling you forward is suddenly barred from you? What could you do when your body is changed against your will (when something you were always meant to be but didn't know comes forth) with the breaking of single seal– demon traits rising under your skin like a wolf shedding sheep's clothing? what do you when you're somewhere unfamiliar and foreign and you body is changing again, and this time you don't know what you are, what you're becoming? It's not like he could think of any of this in the Abyss. He was in survival mode. And now he's somewhere else and it's not safe, but it's not not safe, and Luo Binghe's hit his limit.

It's just– satisfying, to imagine a world where Luo Bingge gets to fall apart fully and heal properly. To imagine a world and a place where Luo Bingge is recognized as a child and allowed to be one. (maybe heavenly demons age slow. maybe Luo Bingge is growth-stunted by the Abyss. Maybe he's in a weird grey area age between child and adult. who knows. But either way, Luo Bingge registers as a child ghost to other ghosts.)

Also. Danny finding someone else who's like him that isn't evil godfather. It's not just Ellie (Dani) and him anymore. And Ellie technically never died like Danny, so......There's another one! Another person who died in a doorway between places and didn't come back all the way.

I imagine that once LBH gets less wary of adults/authority figures, he ends up really liking Frostbite (probably because Danny dragged him there for a medical checkup) and Nocturn (because same hat!! same powers!! he gives good advice!!)

And because I lost my mind over "Childhood" by Marsalias– read it on ao3, it is SO GOOD– which follows the premise that child ghosts copy attributes of adults they like/trust: LBH with ram horns (Nocturn) made of black ice (Frostbite/the yetis)!!!

I don't know about why my mind gravitated towards this specifically. I just wanted Luo Bingge to heal and have trusted adults and friends in his life. the idea of LBH + crazy dp worldbuilding potential and ghost powers is just a bonus.

OP I think you accidentally singlehandedly summoned most of the DP fans with your two posts, which is both amazing yet also understandably overwhelming. How are you taking this? What's your favorite fic that you've read so far?

Thank you for asking! I've been kind of overwhelmed, but in a good way? I have never had a post take off like that before. This is like the most crazy supportive fandom I've ever seen.

And I have read so many dang fics it's hard to choose one. My very favorites tend to be small semi-demi-hemi AUs where someone just puts a little one-page wild idea out there, like "What if a ghost thought Tucker was Phantom?" or "What if there was a ghost alien?" People get crazy creative with those.

My favorite longer fic I've read so far is the "Something's Wrong With Danny Fenton" series, because I'm in love with horror stories and I think it's adorable when the kids all have cute teen crushes on each other.

(Before anyone asks, I have A Snapping Sound, Phantom of Truth, and Mortified on my to-read list but I haven't read them yet. I, uh...I'm slightly terrified by the size of some of these.)

My favorite fic/comic series is @artistfingers's Undercover Phantom AU! That's actually kind of what started my Phandom deep dive. Well, that and @the-stove-is-on-fire's Danny Phantom/Spiderman/Deadpool comics. They just kept on popping up on my dash over and over until I was like "okay, interest reawakened, my next thing is Danny Phantom now I guess"

Just watched Jordan Peele's Nope.

Nope is about exploitation.

Nope is about how Hollywood chews up everyone involved in it.

Nope is about racism.

Nope is about UFOs.

Nope is not about UFOs.

Nope is about why you don't work with chimpanzee co-stars.

Nope is about being eaten alive figuratively, by your passions, by your history, by trying to reclaim lost glory, by an audience that only ever wants more and is never satisfied.

Nope is about being eaten alive literally, really slowly, and you're awake and screaming the whole time.

Nope is about how you can never really tame a wild animal.

Nope is about how you can absolutely tame a wild animal.

(No you can't) (But you sort of can)

Nope is about the world's most stupidly dramatic recitation of "Flying Purple People Eater," but you suddenly realize that it's scaring you.

Nope is about why you don't let your heavily autistic-coded brother do the public speaking.

Nope is about why you don't let your sister have the aux.

Nope is about being forcibly adopted by a young adult conspiracy theorist who just got out of a four-year relationship and really needs you guys right now, okay? He hacked your cameras, please don't be mad. Wanna play video games?

Most importantly, Nope is about scaring me so fucking bad that I didn't even realize until the movie was over that I had turned my popcorn bucket into this:

My #1 post of 2022

Okay so it turns out that Danny Phantom was the worst possible old show to get a sudden and inexplicable hyperfixation on, because apparently the fandom's been going full tilt since 2004.

Usually when I get a hyperfixation outta nowhere for a completed series, I spend a week, maybe two going through old fanfiction and fanart, and then I burn through what's left, and then I'm done.

Danny Phantom has a pile of fanfiction and fanart that's been growing steadily since, and I cannot emphasize this enough, 2004, and there are still people putting out multiple things every single day. I'm already like 20 AUs in and I've been up till 2:00am every single night this week because I've found a new enormous fascinating fanfic that was so good I could not physically make myself sleep until I finished it.

Help?

[lexosaurus]

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)

Fic Writer Review

Tagged by @cleanlenins and @dp-marvel94

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

180

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

1238290

3. How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

Danny Phantom, BNHA, Secret Saturdays, Ben 10, Harry Potter, MCU, and Stargate. Although some of these were just crossovers with DP. Also original fiction, if that counts.  

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Long Night in the Valley (BNHA), Mortified (DP), Danger First (BNHA), Interview with a Ghost (DP), and Cold Case (DP).

5. Which of your fic do you want more attention for?

To be honest, I would really like my original fiction to get more attention. (In the Water is a complete novel!)

6. Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

I used to try to respond to every comment, but that got too overwhelming for me. Now I just reply if there's a question I can answer, or if someone just left a lot of comments.

7. What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

Hmmm. Probably the alternate ending for Masquerade/Laboratory aka Pollux is Brighter.

8. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you’ve written?

I do write crossovers... But they're all pretty tame.

9. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

A few times. Mostly for confusing reasons. Like a fic with no focal romance being called 'too gay.' It's hard to be too mad about it when it's that baffling.

10. Do you write smut? if so what kind?

Nope.

11. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes. The first few chapters of Mortified have been translated to German. A couple other people have asked about translating my fics, but I always ask to be linked to the translation if it gets made, so I assume no link = no translation.

12. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

No.

13. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Not really into that too much. Everlasting Trio, I suppose?

14. What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

Connected... I think I've rather lost the thread of inspiration there.

15. What are your writing strengths?

Worldbuilding and persistence.

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

Smooth scene changes and actually remembering what I've written.

17. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

Depends on context.

18. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Danny Phantom

19. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

I don't know. I don't really think of my fics that way. Doorways series, maybe?

20. What fic are you most proud of?

Mortified. I've put a lot of work into that sucker.

My Danny Phantom Fanfic Recs

 Most everything here is what I find to be pretty decent quality, and with minimal grammatical errors and spacing issues, so you don’t have to writhe in pain while reading. Trust me, I have good taste in fanfiction. I hope you enjoy, and don’t hesitate to submit fics to this list! 

[As of now this is a WIP list as I am still compiling several fics , so i’ll reblog this when it’s done!]

Note: Anything with a ☆ next to it is an absolute must read, at least in my opinion. I would highly, highly recommend them.

Humor

- Things I Can(not) Do In Amity Park  [Dead?] ☆

[Danny and his friends are officially seniors of Casper High. A month away from graduation and suddenly Danny is sick of Amity Park's ignorance. Refusing to play innocent any longer- and hoping everyone will finally get a clue- the golden trio of Amity Park lets loose. This town is in for a wild month.]

- Who’s Clueless Now? [Complete, Oneshot]

[Danny wants to prove he's not as clueless as everyone else around him. So he goes to school, claiming to be Fenton while dressed as Phantom. He goes home utterly disappointed. snarky!Danny. Oneshot.]

Angst and Drama

- Humans and Ghosts [Complete] ☆

[TW: ABUSE, NEGLECT, BLOOD, PANIC ATTACKS]

[If there was one thing Danny Fenton perfected since receiving his powers, it was how to pretend. Abuse/neglect AU]

- Evanescent Signs [Dead? But worth a read, the ending is still satisfactory!] 

[Evanescent: quickly fading or disappearing, similar to the signs the students of Casper High witness Danny Fenton experience everyday that tell them he's not as normal as everyone believes.]

- Green Jacket, Red Sleeves [Reveal Fic, Complete] ☆

[Danny gets hurt, and Maddie notices a bit of ectoplasm on his sleeve.]

Action/Plot-focused

- A Phantom Marooned [Complete] ☆

[No one but Danny was suspicious when his English class was awarded an all-expenses paid cruise trip by an anonymous benefactor. Everyone but Danny thought it was bad luck when they became ship-wrecked on an island in the middle of nowhere. No one but Danny fully understood the dangers lurking in the trees. No one but Danny knew how much danger they were all in so far from home.]

- Ectoplasmic Angel [Dead?]

[Danny isn't sure he'll ever understand why he was kicked out of heaven, but with mortal friends as perfect as his did it really matter that he was all alone now? It seems Amity Park needs him more than his old home, because things are starting to wake up that were better left asleep. And maybe- just maybe- the Angel isn't as alone as he thinks.]

- Someone Was Watching [Dead?]

[Stolen from their homes and trapped in a ghost's idea of a zoo, Danny and the other missing teenagers need to find a way out before their captor decides these strays need to be put down. Can Danny keep his Halfa status a secret when their lives are on the line?]

- Mortified [Ongoing, Hiatus] ☆ ☆ ☆

[Danny had actually been looking forward to Casper High's ghost safety assembly, but, between a ghost attack and his parents' newest weapon, things go wrong very quickly. Now Danny will have to fight not only ghosts and hunters but his own instincts to get everyone back home safely. If at all.]

Note: I’ve read all 223 chapters and i don’t regret it at all. It’s like if you mushed together every DP trope ever and made it a literary masterpiece. 

-  The Summoning [Complete]☆

[Danny Phantom was the talk of the town, and especially the school, Casper High. But, no one's ever really talked to Phantom, have they? since they don't feel like charging into a ghost fight to ask about the hero's favorite color, two students look for a way to talk to him, and they find it, much to Danny's confusion.]

My To-Read List:

- A Phantom Apocalypse 

- Ghost Zone Experience

- Amity Park: The Last City Standing

- Shift
