#gray ghost danny phantom

[ghoulishautism]

I dont think anybody drew Victoria yet, which is strange since she had the most interesting story potential to me Based off @what-is-my-aesthetic 's crackship video where she went on a brief 'Nicktoons Next Gen' tangent

Me brain dumping story ideas below

Okay so- I really liked the idea of her gaining her ghost powers naturally upon turning 16 (through Danny's genetics I assume) and her having this shame/anxiety around it.

Here me out- what if prior to this, she was a teen who wanted to be a popular girl just like her mom (who she has a LOT of respect and admiration for), and part of that ambition would require her to hide her more dorky "Fenton-ness".

So of course her being half ghost would kinda put a wrench in that.

I don't think she'd have her father's instinctive heroic need-to-help, at least at first. She'd probably be more concerned with trying to be "normal", but would be dragged out to save the day. She'll come to love it over time, but for now she is Not Thrilled about it. Especially since Danny struggled with controlling his powers when he first got his- so theres no doubt her powers acting up would cause a lot of misunderstandings and quirky situations.

Also Danny is an anxious "Daddy's girl" dad whos constantly checking up on her, especially after finding out about her new powers- to contrast how kinda hands off his parents were and how they had no idea he was Phantom for the longest time (mainly due to him being too afraid to tell them).

He wants Victoria to be comfortable enough to come to him when shes having a problem- yet both of her parents are stubborn so it doesnt always work out that way.

Val herself would be a good mom, but certainly more abrasive compared to Danny who'd be far more laid back (aside from the overprotectiveness of course). She'd have a harder time knowing what to do with her daughter's half ghost status. Theres more I could brainstorm but I'll cut it off here, and if you actually read through all of this unorganized rambles you're a real one

The idea of Valerie finding out shit about Phantom and/or Cujo through Danny Fentons tiktoks is hilarious to me.

( @hannahmanderr @underforeversgrace see I don’t lie, he is the ghost king in shared cujostody au :) it took a while but it’s real :))

I also like to imagine that all the ghosts know not to fuck around when Danny is recording a tiktok.

Gray and Graysons

One of the Bats has a secret. Something they never told to the others.

They were so very young but they have memories of a sibling, so small and tiny. They remember the burst of warmth they had in their heart when they held the tiny baby for just a moment.

But they weren’t allowed to keep them, their family couldn’t raise them. Money was tight, just enough for three but not for four, despite their shows always bringing in a crowd it was getting harder and harder for the world to be wowed by them in the new age and their sibling was too small and tiny and needed to be cared in a single place than for them to be on the road. Their lifestyle was not good for his tiny sibling apparently.

They had to watch as their parents gave his sibling away to people in suits, them promising to give his baby brother to a loving family when they find a ‘home’ for him. He watched his parents try to be strong only for his mother to break down once the car left down the road, his father holding her and apologizing, the rest of the circus troupe all silently coming over to give the heartbroken family condolences.

Richard ‘Dick’ Grayson had tears running down his face when he last saw his baby brother.

A brother he got to name before he had to be given away.

Daniel ‘Danny’ Grayson.

-x-x-

Dick never told the others. If anyone dug deep into his past they might find his brother’s birth records maybe, if someone got around to digitizing the paperwork for him but given the fact he was placed in the US childcare systems just a few days after his birth and the fact that Dick was still pretty young they most likely believed he didn’t remember his baby brother now. Not after so many years.

But they were wrong, Dick remembers. And he kept the secret close to his heart and memories.

And the only physical evidence he had was a single picture of him holding his brother, a smile on his tiny face towards their father who had taken the photo of them together. When he had lost his parents, lost most of the things that connected him to them, to his past in the circus that had been his whole life, had been taken from him in Gotham’s ruthless childcare system, he held on tight to the picture in secret. Hid it away from anyone trying to rip it from him, hid it from Bruce when the man took him in days later, hid it from Alfred despite how gentle the butler was towards him. He couldn’t, wouldn’t risk losing his photo at the time, he hadn’t trusted anyone and by the time he did he didn’t have the heart to reveal it.

So yes, the existence of his baby brother Danny was his most guarded and best kept secret.

So that’s why Dick, as Nightwing, nearly died from a heart attack when leaving a Justice League meeting he spotted a familiar face among one of the new engineers working in the Watchtower.

It was like seeing a young version of himself. Only, Dick could see that the young man was more than a copy of him, so much more than a clone. He held many traces of John Grayson but also had a bit more of Mary Grayson than Dick did. Small details that Dick foggely remembers taking note when he had held his baby brother.

“Hey, hurry up with that report Gray!” Shouted the head engineer from down the hall, his hand beckoning the young adult to come over.

“Coming! And boss, I told you Danny is fine!” Danny shouted back before hurriedly leaving a stunned Nightwing.
