Heavy Is The Head That Wears The Crown

https://archiveofourown.org/works/43010493

It wasn’t a Crown of Fire. Not really. It was The Crown of the Infinite Realms. There is a difference. The Crown of the Infinite Realms was much stronger than the Crowns of Fire- or Ice. or Lightning. Or any one core. It directly superseded them in power and in authority. The wielder of this crown could do far more than simply summon great bursts of fire. The Crown of the Infinite Realms allowed one access to the full spectrum of Cores. Fire, Electricity, Ice, Flora, Night, Light, and more. In effect, it provided one with whatever core they needed and strengthened their innate core. Why then was it only spoken of as The Crown of Fire? As if it weren’t so much more, and there weren’t a number of fire crowns? That was both simple, and complicated. Firstly, Pariah barely used it for anything more than Fire, with it accentuating his already immense Fire Core. 

The second reason was politics. The Observants dared not allow a new Pariah. They couldn’t. So, they scrubbed away at the records. They spoke only of the Crown as one of Fire. They needed it to be a rare core so that it was less likely for anyone to seek it out. They needed it to be weaker than it was so it wouldn’t be worth seeking out. They did similar things to the Ring of Rage and any of the other myriads of powers in Pariah’s Keep. That way, there would never be another conqueror or usurper. In their mind, they were keeping peace in the Infinite Realms, so as to allow it to rebuild. In the eyes of Clockwork and other ancients, they were leaving a power vacuum only they could fill. 

Regardless, Pariah no longer wore the Crown. That power now fell to Daniel Fenton, known as Danny Phantom. While the young King had been told of the power by his Regent, Frostbite, and his advisor Clockwork, Phantom did not expect it to feel as it did when he placed it on his head during the coronation. It was paradoxical. Like a thousand screams of agony were in harmony with clerical singing. As Phantom wore the crown for the first time, it changed. No longer was it a simple, three-pronged crown worn by a warlord older than the first human empires. Now, it was something more medieval, with six long arches folding into a centerpiece, bespeckled with jewels that Danny couldn’t truly describe. Emerald flames turned to impossibly white clouds of wind and snow. 

However, at half a thought, barely even a conscious notice, he could change the Crown to whatever was needed. But it changed him. Phantom didn’t like this fact, but knew mastering all the power at its beck and call was needed in order to control the Crown. Fire burned hot, and he was more volatile in this state, not as stable as other cores due to it being the exact opposite of what he was meant to wield. Fire almost hurt to use, and it made him more violent. More akin to his predecessor. Lightning was better. Due to the nature of how Phantom was formed, it synchronized well- Danny was an exception to the rule in having a core so distinct from his death. Lightning brought him more in line with what other ghosts were like, but more importantly, it brought him energy, and was pleasurable to utilize. Night… Phantom didn’t like using Night. It was cruel, sadistic at its nature- even its Ancient, Nocturne was cruel on his best day. When Phantom trained with the Night Crown, he felt like a man he swore he would never be. Light was the opposite. He felt as though he knew everything, as though he was the ultimate in good. Danny didn’t like using Light either, despite this, as in the same way as its opposite, it robbed him of his humanity- of his ability to recognize his fallibility and ability to be cruel. Light was what a King should aspire to be, but Danny was not ready for it.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

My frustrations with DP Reveal fics and the untapped potential they have

Recently I’ve been getting into DP fanfics and a common trend I see with Reveal fics is that a lot of the stories will end as soon as Danny reveals his ghost half.

I’ve hardly come across any stories that showcase and or explore the dynamics of the characters after they find out Danny's secret.

It’s a shame too because there is a lot of untapped potential that most authors don’t dive into.

I always thought that Jack and Maddie accepting their son was step 1 of the post reveal plot point.

Step 2 would be how do the Fentons react going back to day-to-day normalcy knowing Danny has powers? As Danny’s parents, would they even feel fine with him fighting ghosts and putting himself in harm's way? They’ve been shown to be very protective and would no doubt want to intervene with Danny’s ghost fights.

And the rest writes itself. Here some ideas and thoughts I’ve had about what I think should happen after the reveal.

They would need some time to adjust to whatever weird or strange antics Danny and his friends get into. Especially since Danny disproves and reawakens a lot of theories the Fentons had about ghosts and the ghost zone.

The Fentons have such an astray relationship and opinions of ghosts, it would take a while before they even consider and or feel comfortable befriending or trusting any of them.

Imagine at some point they would want to help Danny get to know his powers and biology better. So they would construct some harmless experiments on Danny, I’ll be it with his permission and consent about it.

Speaking of experiments, there should be a point where they would have some internal conflicts with their roles as parents and scientists. They’re passionate about both roles but at some point, they may need to fill one role more so than the other. Their intellect vs their parental instincts would serve as a good conflict.

While most of these ideas are serious, I wouldn’t mind seeing the comedic elements and situations come out in Fenton's attempt to understand and cooperate with Danny’s powers, especially in their home.

I hope this post inspires some of you writers to come up with new stories, I can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

It still amazes me that after all these years the fandom of Danny Phantom keeps going and alive. How many fandoms have survived for this long? How many keep being active writing fanfics and making fanart in this scale? Not many that i know. It's a great fandom.

"He'll understand, Jack. Just go in and talk to him." Maddie said, rubbing Jack's arm to support him. Jack's frown didn't fade though, still looking worried. "I don't know, Maddie. It's weird seeing him like this." He said.

The college students both frowned. They knew it was their fault their best friend was on that hospital bed. Maddie knew Jack felt mostly guilty about it. "He'll understand." Maddie said again.

Jack took a deep breath, wiping away his watery eyes. "Right. You're right." He muttered. Maddie smiled and took Jack's hand. They both walked in the room.

Vlad was sitting up on his bed, reading a book. He looked up and placed his book down. "Hello Maddie. And...Jack." He said, his voice a bit raspy.

"Hey, V-Man. You're, uh, you're looking good." Jack said. Vlad had a tight frown on his face but he nodded. "Thank you." He mumbled. Maddie sat beside Vlad, holding his hand. She motioned Jack to sit on the other side.

Jack did so and cautiously took Vlad's other hand. Vlad looked at him, his blue eyes burning at Jack. He allowed it though. Vlad squeezed both his friends' hands. They squeezed back.

Bug stood in the center of the Denny's parking lot, foot tapping against the ground, and stared down the three clones standing before them.

"You're Bug," they said, pointing at @daddyphannypack .

"You're Bug," they added, pointing at @reallydumdbannyphantomaus .

"You're Bug," they finally said, pointing at @reallydumbdannyphantomfics . Then they pointed at themself and cried out, "I'M Bug! Are there any other Bugs I should know about?!"

Lexx @lexosaurus and Tali @dannyphandump were somewhere doing Lexx and Tali things. Suddenly, all the lights went out. When they came back on, Bug @reallydumbdannyphantomaus was standing in the center of the room, wearing a hooded robe.

"Uh, Bug, you okay there buddy?" asked Lexx.

Bug stared at her, and then they smiled. "Would you like to talk about the lord and savior of music, Billy Joel?"

"Do we have a choice?"

Bug's smile widened, and they replied, "No."

Tali and Lexx turned their heads to look at each other. "Run," Tali mouthed, and the two of them dashed away from Bug. But Bug duplicated themself, and each Bug clone managed to pin Lexx and Tali on the ground.

Bug walked over to them. Then they pulled out an MP3 player from their robe and played Piano Man. "Appreciate Billy Joel," she ordered, that smile of hers glued to her face. "Or else."

danny phantom au where lexx and tali properly appreciate billy joel
