#halfa!izuku au

[ominousvibez]

introducing EQUINOX, the ANCIENT OF SPACE. aka ancient of space danny

a rough draft LOL

some design ideas i had, i'll probably fix this up later:

the planets that swirl around danny's head are made of ice

the staff isn't something he always carries on him but is stored in an infinite "pocket dimension" he has access to. at the very end of it is an itty bitty black hole. is it a real one? who knows. just don't get hit with it

his ghostly tail fades off into space cloud dust

similar to nocturne, his cape is of a static png of space that shifts whenever he moves. the rest of his outfit is very astronaut themed (the nerd...)

not visible but a cool idea: in this specific iteration of equinox, he's in a bnha x dp crossover/halfa!izuku au that i've picked up after abandoning it for years. equinox is danny's ancient form after he leaves the throne to establish a council. i think it'd be fun if there were scars from the crown and ring from his time as king visible. obviously it won't be here and his hands are covered but that's a design note!

momentarily returning to danny phantom for my halfa izuku au

[princess-of-the-corner]

You could use phantom Chloé if you wanted to play with the Walker and electricity headcanon.

Also it'd be a stretch given what you'd have to do to get them to meet, but Halfa Izuku AU could also work if you use the izuku and Denki fusion form.

TRUE

Walker: *shows up for family dinner*

Chloé: "??????????????"

I think the Izuku/Denki fusion would be his worst fucking nightmare though

Trigger time travel au outline

I am slowly thinking about how to write the good introduction of Vlad and the time traveled group ( please give me a good group name for a time travelers with quirk) but I have idea for this au.

The first post are set in the bad end of MHA where All Might and Izuku failed in a bad future and a week before Danny becomes a halfa in the past.

Obsession can be changed slowly and be compromised like Vlad taking the group in as his reason is that this act of character can wow Maddie with a study of quirk and ghost ( he saw Mikey quirk, ghost arm, and its relation of ectoplasm), and can be exaggerated and manipulated by a hostile thing like a powerful ghost ( I put this in as I have no other idea how to put Dani in this setting as she a clone that are made by Vlad in canon)

This is a slow redemption Vlad au that starts before EP 1 of Danny Phantom

This au 'lightly' bash MHA hero society and its importance of heroes and things like martyr and how much information that are lost in the age of quirk that people didn't care about because it is not part of heroic society even though the information is important, and it is talked about how the group while meeting Danny Phantom thought that he is breaking a law about vigilantism before remember that they are in the past as well that they don't know about non heroic history and the reason for all for one victory is that hero society don't want to kill him and when they realize that AFO has to be kill, it is too late.

The relationship of team phantom and the ( name pending) time triggered group ( I will get a better group name when someone gives one) is rocky at first and as the time goes on becomes a bit friendly nemesis

I have no idea about some common tropes like ghost king Danny

Clockwork and the observer know about the time triggered group and just let them be as (while I don't have a great detail about it) if they didn't go back in time, AFO will teach the quirk singularity and become an all consuming monster that in time will consume everything, even the infinite realm.

This is the outline I got.

[phantoms-lair]

For the Hero's Spirit AU, is Tucker going to show up in some capacity? Since he was also reincarnated once and would have experience with people expecting him to be someone else?

Izuku growled as his head cleared. He didn't know how Vlad had gotten through his defense, but they'd be shored up as soon as he beat his displeasure into the former halfa. "What do you want now, Fruitloop?"

"No need for that, Daniel. After all, I'm trying to help you. And I went through all the trouble of finding your best friend to help you along."

His best friend? Izuku glanced around and saw someone his age wearing a uniform for UA, but was fairly sure he'd never seen him before in his life. Great, Vlad was dragging someone else into this.

He gave a finger to where the voice seemed to be coming from, then turned to his schoolmate. "Uh, Midoriya Izuku 1A. Sorry about this."

"Sakuma Haru, 1H," Support student then, "What did he mean we were best friends. "I like saw you at the sports festival, but I wasn't even there! I was out sick that week."

Izuku sighed. "His name is Plasmius. He's a villain from...a really long time ago. Part of his quirk basically stops him in time. He had this obsession with a woman he liked and her son who had a quirk similar to his. He despised the woman's husband for winning her heart. After they all died he kind of went into a funk and stopped being active. Then I inherited the son's quirk."

Izuku sighed. "He's decided I was Danny reborn." and was right, but he wouldn't admit it. "And he's trying to get me to 'remember' being Danny. He's also assigning roles to other people. Since my Dad isn't active in my life he's decided the person I look up to, All Might, is now 'Jack', Danny's father. And from what I've read one of Danny's best friends in an inventor and you're in the Support course, I'm guessing you've been assigned the role of 'Foley Tucker'."

"So I'm wrapped up into this because a supervillain assigned me kin to a dead inventor?" Sakuma said dryly.

"Welcome to my life." Izuku added in the same tone.

"Okay, so are we waiting for the heroes or are we going to bust out of this Cheese-heads prison ourselves?"

Izuku laughed. It was a more appropriate insult than Sakuma could have known. He had a feeling both of them would get along just fine.

~~~~

So Vlad actually got it right, for once. Haru Sakuma is indeed the reincarnation of Tucker Foley and Pharaoh Duul' Ammon.

The name Haru is written with the kanji 陽 meaning 'light, sun, male' which seemed appropriate for a Pharaoh. Sakuma comes from 佐(Sa: Help, aid) 久(Ku: A long time ago) and 間(Ma: time, interval), chosen because he was someone who helped Danny a long time ago.

[musicfeedsmysoul12]

So I meant to send you this ask but sent it so someone else. Ehh my bad I was really confused when I got an answer from them. But here is what I want your thoughts on.

Bio Dad for Izuku ( male or female) Danny Phantom or Vald Masters and his/her quirk is ghost powers like their. But Izuku quirk only awaken after he/she almost dies.

I don't think they would kill themselves as it was clear they went through a lot of crappy things in life. Izuku never tried to. So like with the Slime villain attack or the kids in his class go to far and end up injery him/her to a point he/she dies

I know nothing about Danny Phantom but I like the idea as a ‘Izuku has ghost powers’ AU. Danny is still alive after centuries and didn’t think his kid would inherit the halfa part of him. He’s unaware he has a kid and is an international hero.

When Izuku ends up being shoved down the stairs by some other kids and then awakens his ghost powers, everyone is shocked. Danny upon hearing it is horrified.

Izuku is now being trained by his dad while the school was sued. Izuku is very happy with the new normal. Inko is just happy her son is happy.

And maybe Izuku meets an invisible girl...

[massivecheesecakewolf]

They intended to travel back in time by injecting an enhanced trigger into Luka Hall (whose quirk mana is enhanced by the trigger) to Hinder AFO but they went too far(because the factor of the trigger is too strong and Luka saw his sister die in front of him by nomus and traumatized him)to a week before Danny becomes a halfa.

And wow your response about how you hate how hero centric MHA timeline become as I have some ideas how hero society failed to stop AFO, you said that there should be a civilian license and that if there a civilian license it could prevent the creation of a percentage of villains as the hero society created villain as what good is a hero without a villain as they, the hero society, unintentionally giving AFO what he wants. Also the fact that the HPCS hide the fact about AFO is also not helping as they release all they know after they lost everything by AFO killing All Might and Izuku in the original timeline.

The fun post about Danny mistakenly believing there is a vigilante law is a minor running gag that starts from when the time traveled group first finds Danny (in his first month)fighting a ghost and after the fight is over, forgetting that they are in the past, ask him why is he breaking a vigilante law, even after the misunderstanding is clear the running gag has a person (either one of the time traveled group or one of team phantom who believes this is funny) saw Danny doing dangerous risk to stop a powerful ghost, to save people, asked "is this breaking a vigilante (team phantom)/quirk law (time traveled group)?"

You also have a good point about quirk =/= ghost power and I have an idea that in the original timeline, for some reason, ghosts don't appear in the age of heroes as there is a barrier between the ghost zone and earth that is unbreakable and unpassable for reasons I don't have. Sure in the new timeline where Vlad has a change of heart and planning against AFO (this au is about slow burn Vlad redemption) and makes a quirky world bit more ghostly.

Hello there,

As I am thinking about two posts for trigger time travel AU, a fun one about Danny mistakenly believing there is a vigilante law when the triggered group (temporary group name) not remembering that they are in the past and a dark one about how hero society failed to defeat All for one. I want to know what your opinion about hero society in My hero academia and give me some insight I could use for my Posts.

Btw do you have a cool name for the main group (the time travelled one) as i have no idea what to call them?

Well, it depends. Did the group travel back in time intentionally?

Also, there technically is a law against vigilateism, however there are also several other laws such as the Self-Defense, Defense of Others, Stand Your Ground, & Civilian Arrest laws. Also keep in mind that while the MHA group are mostly Japanese, Danny is an American, which has different laws.

Like, for instance, Lawful Self-Defense is classified as "the use of reasonable force to protect oneself or members of the family from bodily harm from the attack of an aggressor, if the defender has reason to believe he/she/they is/are in danger.”

Defense of Others is also classified as a form of Self-Defense being "the right of a person to protect a third party with reasonable force against another person who is threatening to inflict force upon the third party.”

Stand Your Ground laws are essentially "a revocation of the duty to retreat. Stand Your Ground laws generally state that, under certain circumstances, individuals can use force to defend themselves without first attempting to retreat from the danger.”

And Civilian Arrest laws say that "a private citizen has the authority to arrest a person for a felony under the following circumstances: The felony was committed in the citizen's presence. A felony has been committed, & the citizen has probable cause to believe & does believe that the person to be arrested is guilty of committing it.”

On the other hand, legally speaking, Vigilanteism refers to "the act of preventing, investigating, & punishing perceived offenses & crimes without legal authority."

Which the other 4 directly contradicts, so things get a bit murky there.

Another thing to keep in mind, provided the story still uses ghosts, is that the villains that Danny mostly fights have very few other competent people capable of dealing with them besides Danny himself. And none of those competent individuals have legal authority, while the ones that do are incompetent & are prone to mass amounts of property damage that have most likely resulted in a decent number of injuries, if not fatalities.

And at that point, it becomes a question of what’s more important, innocent lives or the law?

Something that the MHA gang have likely forgotten is the fact that the first heroes were vigilantes.

Another thing is that, as far as I can tell, vigilante & villain laws have become rewritten to involve quirks in their time. So, in the case of Danny being a half-ghost & ghosts still being the problem, then even by their own time's definition, Danny isn't a vigilante & the ghosts aren't villains. Because ghost powers =/= quirks.

As for my personal opinion. I think that the hero leaderboard is a terrible idea & so is the monetization of hero work. I don't like that they are made into celebrities. I think that the role should instead be seen as a branch of service work.

I think that there should also be civilian licenses to allow quirked individuals to use their quirks in certain situations where it is necessary. Of course, I also think that the process of obtaining one should involve a psych eval (for both civilian & hero) at the very least, as well as the civilian having to provide proof that they have control of their quirk.

I also hate how quirk-centric & especially hero-centric everything is. Like, there’s more to life than heroes & quirks. I feel the obsession is frankly unhealthy for everyone involved. For one, it places unrealistic expectations upon heroes who, at the end of the day, are still just regular, flawed people.

Mentions of blood and injury

--------

A pale teen with white hair and green eyes stands just outside of the UA gates. Only a few inches from where the sidewalk turns into the bricks of the school's entrance way. This isn’t a rare sight, seeing as almost all new students come to gawk at the large building where pro heroes are made. Where futures are built. Where dreams become reality.

But the boy standing there now isn’t silent from admiration. He doesn't appear to be concerned with the building at all, as if it were just like every other one on the street. No, this particular student seems to be thinking about leaving. As if weighing the option in his mind of whether or not continuing would be worth the effort. After all the work it took to even get to this point and with hundreds of other students willing to do anything to take his spot, you would think the choice to be easy. That the only logical thing to do would be to step forward and embrace the future that awaits inside the walls of UA.

But instead the thin, pale teen takes a step back. And then another. But it seems that fate has other plans as another boy, who seems to be around his age, crashes into his back and sends him forward the few steps he needed to cross into the official boundary of the school. He turns around, not angry at the push or sudden intrusion of his… escape. Merely curious. There are all sorts of people, you never know who you will run into. Or, well, who will run into you.

“I-I-I’m sorry!” the boy with green hair stutters apologetically, arms flailing about with nervous energy. “I wasn’t looking where I was going and I should have been and I’m-”

The boy with hair as white as the clouds above them catches the others hand gently and shakes it, as if that was what the other was intending all along. “I’m Danny, nice to meet you.”

“Oh! Uh- nice to meet you too! My name is Midoriya Izuku!” he seems shocked at the american name of the other, but doesn't comment on it and Danny doesn't explain. That would be a story for another day.

“Yes, you are quite a legend with your entrance exam. I’m excited to be learning with you.” Danny smiled “What class are you in?”

“Oh! Uh, t-thank you!” the shorter of the two blushed from the praise, not seeming to know how to take the compliment and quickly moving on to the next part of the conversation “I’m in class 1-A. What...what about you?”

Danny smiled kindly and began walking towards the steps of the school building with a confidence and purpose he didn’t have mere moments ago. “Me too, let’s go together.”

--

Once the two of them reached the large door of the 1-A classroom, Danny let himself fade into the background of all the chatter. It appears that Izuku is trying to warn him about some of the other students in class, but he pays that no mind, simply staying beside him and nodding along. Not that he doesn't trust the other, more along the lines that he knows he can handle whoever they are if push comes to shove. So for now he simply nods as if the information is helpful and interesting. That is, until a figure with awkward footsteps makes his way over to them and begins to introduce himself. Iida, it seems, with Izuku responding in kind. When the blue haired teen turns his gaze to him, Danny realizes he is the one in the spotlight now.

“I’m Danny.” he smiled politely to the other.

The taller seemed thoughtful for a moment, as if trying to remember something. But he eventually gives up that train of thought and turns his attention to the girl now standing next to Izuku. The nice and warm atmosphere doesn't last much longer however, as a man in a yellow sleeping bag in the middle of the hall speaks up to gather their attention before standing upright and removing himself from the confines of the sleeping bag. The older man pulls a gym uniform from inside the bag and announces to the class to get dressed and to meet in the playing field.

It seems that this will be an interesting first day after all.

--

Now changed and ready to go, the entirety of class 1-A now stands in the center of the UA’s physical education field as Aizawa, their homeroom teacher, begins to explain what will be happening today. A Quirk Apprehension Test. Something that seems to not have been allowed in middle schools across the country, making students use their own strength without the help of a quirk in order to even out the playing field.

But of course, because this is the hero course at the hero school, there’s a catch. Whoever scores the lowest in all eight sections is to be expelled… not that Danny is really worried about that, per say. Where he lacks in physical strength he makes up with the power flowing in his veins. Just applying them to these tests should be enough to at least score somewhere towards the middle.

However…

Looking at all the faces of the students around him Danny can’t help but to feel… bad. One of them would be going home tonight, expelled from a course many can only dream about and chances are Danny wouldn’t ever get the chance to properly meet them. It isn’t fair to be crushed while so young. But there’s nothing Danny can do aside from losing these tests on purpose, but that just isn’t an option right now. So instead he offers a steady hand on the shoulder of Izuku. The green haired teen seems more worried than determined, but when he looks back over his shoulder with a smile, Danny couldn’t help but to return it and put his confidence into the boy. Everything would work out fine.

--

Everything is, decidedly, not fine. While Danny himself was able to do well in the dash and long jump while lacking on the strength grip and side steps, it seems his new… friend? Izuku has been struggling in all categories. He had seen the others exam, knew that there was power hidden within him. But for whatever reason the other didn’t seem to be able to use it.

As the class made their way back out to the P.E fields for the official ball toss, Danny stepped close to his curly haired classmate. “Bad day?”

The other teen sighed “It’s… complicated.”

Danny nodded “I understand that. It’s hard enough being a teenager with power at your fingertips, and this is certainly a stressful first day.”

“Yeah…”

“I saw the video of your entrance exam. And no matter what happens today, you are already a true hero. If nothing else, you can believe that.”

The shorter one looked up at him with wide, dark green eyes “Really…?”

“Of course!” Danny grinned “A real hero can’t be solely defined by tests like this. It’s the actions that matter. This place,” he said gesturing to all of UA with his arms “Is just a stepping stone to getting that “pro” title. In my eyes, you’ve already earned the title of hero when you went after that machine.”

Aizawa spoke up before Izuku could say anything in return, calling Danny to the field for his turn at the ball throw. Without hesitation the white haired teen took the ball and made his way to the painted circle. He had been thinking on what to do for this ever since the demonstration with Katsuki, but standing there now, he felt that the answer wasn't as complicated as he thought it was before.

“You might want to cover your ears!” he called back with a wink, only a few students took his advice. Their loss...

Danny throws the ball upwards into the air and takes a deep breath. Before it even has the chance to begin its descent back down, the halfa releases his ghostly wail, the shock waves sending the ball flying outwards while, thankfully, not destroying it. Leave it to UA to make sturdy products for their students.

Eventually the ball lands and Aizawa holds up his phone, broadcasting the number of 650.4 meters. Not bad, considering it is the first time he has even tried to use his power like this. The other students' faces seem to be overly shocked as he steps back to his place next to his green haired friend, but this is fine. He’s used to attention one way or another by this point, so the eyes that follow him don’t mean much.

“That was awesome!” the boy next to him cheered. “What kind of quirk do you have?! How have I not asked you before?! You have such a range of skills! I saw you flying earlier! How-”

Danny just smirks, eyes flashing a brighter green for just a moment. “Hmmm… who knows?” he says playfully, bumping his shoulder into the other teens in a friendly manner.

--

That night all the students begin to head home with light hearts and tired bodies after finding out the expulsion rule was all a ruse to bring out the best in everyone. Danny can’t help but to be glad, seeing as that means his new companion is safe to continue learning for another day. He can see it in the others eyes, the dazzlement and determination of just being within the walls of UA. Seeing that light go out… isn’t something Danny wants to see if he can help it.

Some students head off to the dorms, others to their homes. Danny himself goes to an apartment building not far from the school and enters using his key. It’s quiet, but not silent when he enters. The hum of the TV and the footsteps in the kitchen bring a homey feel rather than the quiet emptiness of what this place once was.

Sam appears in the doorway as Danny takes off his jacket and tie. Wearing a uniform is still new to him, and not a change he can really say he likes, but he’ll get used to it. It’s just clothes after all. The goth smiles teasingly “So how was your first day of school? Learn anything interesting?”

“Har har.” Danny replied with a roll of his eyes. “Everything went fine, mom.” he takes off his shoes before transforming back into Fenton, into his human half. He is getting used to being his ghostly self mostly full-time now. At first even a whole day was too much to handle, making him feel nauseous and off balance. But after some training it became easier and easier to be changed for longer and longer. Still, it is nice to be reunited with his back hair and blue eyes. Sam keeps saying he’s just as pale in both forms, but Danny likes to think he has more life to him this way.

“Well, mister. It’s about time to get that wound of yours cleaned.”

Before he can say anything, Sam is already making her way down the hall. With a sigh, Danny makes his way into the bathroom instead of his to his bedroom. He’d love to change, maybe get a shower, but his friends are pretty insistent on this whole “cleaning your wound everyday” business. Crazy.

Tucker comes in a moment later in his sleepwear and pulls out the first aid kit. His sleeping schedule has been all over the place since the trio arrived here. Creating fake ID’s and documentation as well as keeping up to date online to make sure that no one had found them or figured them out became a full time job for the other, only getting sleep what seemed to be every once in a while. 

“I’m sorry, Tuck. I didn’t know you were asleep. I would have done it myself.”

Tucker laughs as he sits next to his friend on the side of the tub, motioning for Danny to take off his shirt. He complies. “Oh, please. We both know you wouldn’t do anything about it if left on your own.”

It was Danny’s turn to laugh as Tucker began to remove the gauze. “Well, you got me there.”

Underneath all the bandaging and gauze, the wound is still as bad as when he first got it all those months ago. A ghost had come with a cursed weapon, planning to take over Amity as all new ghosts usually do. While Team Phantom had been able to apprehend the ghost and gave them to Walker to deal with, it wasn’t without injury. Danny had been stabbed with the cursed spear in the shoulder right before the weapon could be destroyed.

The wound itself wasn’t too bad, in a sense. The pain is now dull as long as he is careful, and it had stopped bleeding after that first day. But the marks that almost look like a lichtenberg scar, criss crossing over the skin of his shoulder in a jagged maze-like pattern, started to spread. After some research and talking with Pandora, it was said that there would be a ghost here in Japan that could help. Hence the whole hiding in plain sight shtick. UA seemed to have some of the most powerful heroes and gained a lot of attention on both sides, so it was only a matter of time before he was enrolled with his “Death Mirage quirk”.

“Any luck in finding them? The ghost that can help?” Tucker asked as he rubbed disinfectant on his shoulder to keep germs and bacteria at bay.

“No, my ghost sense never went off. But it is a big building and I was outside most of today.”

Tucker nodded as he began to wrap new, clean gauze over his shoulder. Really, Danny was lucky the gym uniform covered it all. But he would most likely have to look into heavy duty make-up soon if the scars continue to spread.

Especially considering that while he’s a ghost it glows.

And yet, as Tucker packs his things away Danny can’t help but to look at the sunset out of the small bathroom window. All the colors are so bright and vibrant, illuminating the sky before night settles in. It really is no different from the ones he’s seen back home, but it brings a smile to his face either way. He can’t help but to think that he will enjoy his time here, even in these circumstances. He can picture himself now, flying above the tall buildings, looking at the stars. Maybe he could even bring his new UA friends along, show them a view from the clouds. He may not be here long, so it’s best to make the most of his time spent here, right?

There are good things coming on the horizon. He can feel it.

how many times can i write "walk through walls, disappear, and fly" in my halfa!izuku au before it gets to be too much

[thesoffgengar]

me in the dp x dc tag for a week: I want a halfa izuku,,,

he doesn’t transform or anything he just walks around. existing like that. he also had danny’s portal accident but he was a toddler and it was in inko’s secret underground lab in their house,

[princess-of-the-corner]

NOT DECONFIRMED IN MY HEART EITHER!!! unless its convienient for me to deconfirm it in an AU concept.

tbh I have yet to run into an idea where DfO being in play hasn't been ideal? Like /maybe/ the Halfa!Izuku thing because ya boy has enough going on but even then

DPxMHA AU - PT AU - My Phantom Academia

DPxMHA au where the Fentons live in Mustafu because of some massive tragedy that happened there at some point over the last 200 years since quirks first appeared & it's said to be haunted. They're still ghost hunters, so they're still considered outcasts in society. Dina also exists in this au. Dina being Diana Selena Fenton, Danny's twin sister whom I made up.

Anyway, the Fentons have lived there since a little after Danny & Dina turned 4. Same with Tucker's family. Meanwhile, Sam had only just moved there from America in middle school.

Jack has a basic strength-enhancement quirk, Maddie has a basic intelligence quirk, & Jazz has a memory quirk.

Danny is quirkless, while Tucker has a basic metal-bending quirk & Dina has a sort of 'healing' quirk. I'll explain further in a little bit.

Sam has perfect dark vision, the ability to see people with invisibility quirks, & spirits, but she's actually considered quirkless due to her toe joint. She also has tapetum lucidum much like Danny & Dina after becoming hanyuu (halfas). She's also an advocate for the quirkless & people with quirks that are considered either weak or villainous.

I call Dina's quirk Injury Exchange. It's a stronger form of one of her grandmothers' quirks.

Her quirk would allow her to exchange someone else's injury for her healthy equivalent. So, if someone had a cut on their hand, she'd be able to take that cut from them, leaving unblemished skin behind.

This works no matter how severe the injury. Meaning that she can even exchange missing limbs & organs. This process works via the manipulation of cells into energy, exchanging the energy, then turning it back into cells, but the difference being that those cells, right down to their molecules, would be that of the recieving person's cells. So, there is no risk of the body denying the new part.

Now, Dina can also give someone else her own injuries, but she's very much against that sort of thing.

She can also divide the severity of the energy between herself & the other person, but only after years of practice.

She is unable to heal scars though.

However, it was quickly discovered that while this came with a slight healing factor (it's actually due to a mix of her Fenton-Nightingale dhampir qualities & full ecto-liminality), but she has no regeneration factor at this point to go along with it, so she was urged to only use it for non-severe injuries.

---

Since Jack has difficulty speaking most languages, including Japanese, the Fentons regularly speak English at home. This sorta bleeds into Danny's relationships with his friends & they generally talk to each other in English when they don't want others to understand what they're saying. As a result, Izuku quickly becomes fluent.

---

On the other hand, Bakugo goes outta his way to learn English just so he can understand them whenever they do & will be an asshole about them "thinking they're better than him" just for trying to have a private conversation.

Jazz has an entire dissertation written about that boy's many issues.

Either way, Izuku is part of their group & had been since a little after everyone learned he was quirkless. He'd been getting beat up by Bakugo when Danny, Dina, & Tucker came in to save him. They've been friends ever since. Then, in middle school, Sam moved there & their quartet became a quintet.

Because of this, Izuku is more confident in himself & no longer considers Bakugo his friend. He knows what friends are now & Bakugo isn't one. Thanks to his friends, he doesn't develop the pseudo-Stockholm Syndrome that we see in canon. So he doesn't call him Kacchan anymore & to be honest, the first time the greenette called Bakugo, Bakugo it stung them both. It still gets on the hot-headed boy's nerves but he can't react to it because people would get suspicious.

Tucker & Dina even suggested that Izuku could be the Analyst Hero because of all his note-taking. That he should try analyzing villains & using the information against them when he's a hero.

Either way, Aldera doesn't exist here. Casper Middle does in its place. The only teacher there that's worth a shit is Lancer as he doesn't allow discriminatory rhetoric, including anti-quirkless bullshit, in his class. He's a good, if flawed, teacher, but he's surrounded by horrible ones & he tries to be there for the kids targeted.

His quirk is the ability to remember every word of every book he's ever read. Very useful for an English lit teacher. Especially since he enjoys literature so much.

The A-listers are still a thing, but only in middle school. Bakugo's considered one of them, but he honestly hates the lot of them.

In this story, Danny & Dina's accident happens on the first day of their second-to-last year in middle school & Izuku was there for it. At first, they try to pretend that the accident just gave them quirks or something, which prompts Izuku to start writing about it since he'd never seen anyone with multiple quirks before Dina. However when these ghosts, real freaking ghosts with similar abilities to Danny & Dina, start coming out to terrorize people, they begin to get a sick feeling in their stomachs as to what that could mean for the twins.

---

This is the start of the Danny Phantom arc & it goes relatively the same as in the show, just plus Midoriya.

However, this also means that Reign Storm takes place.

Now that Dina & her brother became Phantoms, she's got super healing & regeneration.

From then on, she was able to take much more severe injuries with little-to-no issue. But it wasn't until after TUE & the development of her ability to heal others with her hands (she calls it her Lay On Hands) that she began to really experiment with the possibilities.

Even still, it wasn't until someone lay before her dying with a hole in their lung that she recklessly used it on them. At first Danny thought Dina would die, but it turns out that their cores act as an ectoplasmic memory bank containing blueprints for their body. Because of this, they are both able to regenerate almost any body part near-perfectly. Scars remain, but they do eventually fade. Though, not completely.

She can heal from things like broken arms & whatnot in a matter of hours. Sometime minutes if she regularly drinks bone broth & 3-bone tea. But missing organs can take a week to heal, but again, she can minimize that time with the right food intake.

However, when Dina uses her quirk, the more severe an injury, the less her ghostly self-healing factor works. It still heals, but at a slightly slower rate than other injuries.

She recommends that people consume appropriate foods for up to a week beforehand to help along the process as it puts less strain on her & her quirk. Things like drinking 3-bone tea when you have a broken arm.

Using her Lay On Hands at the same time can mitigate the adverse affects she receives even further.

Again, she has to have specified diets in these situations to help specific missing or injured body parts to heal.

At the same time, her quirk doesn't work on body parts that she doesn't have. So, if a guy lost his... you know... her quirk wouldn't work on him because she doesn't have one.

She also discovers that she has x-ray vision, but it's nowhere near the efficiency of Superman's version. Really, it acts more like an internal x-ray machine, all black & white & slightly fuzzy. Not to mention that she's unable to see through walls.

However, despite it's lack of efficiency, it majorly improves the efficiency of her healing of others by showing her exactly what she needs to heal, which allows her to guide the energy right where it needs to be.

---

At the same time, the appearance of these Ghosts (also called Hereafter Ghosts, Eku-Yuurei, & Zumu-Yuurei) will prompt the appearance of youkai & regular yuurei (Earthbound Spirits of Japanese descent) which is another issue entirely. While Danny & Dina can fight the hostile ones back, their ghost powers aren't especially effective against youkai that aren't yuurei as well. They still work, but not as well.

Not to mention that they can't really use the thermos on the Earthbound spirits or youkai because they aren't made purely of ectoplasm like the Eku-Yuurei are. So, they have to figure out other ways to fight & contain them, or in the regular yuurei's cases, help them move on, which will sometimes eventually involve the use of magic, as well as old school Shinto & Buddhist methods.

Magic for them specifically being Danny's cryomancy & asteromancy & Dina's hydromancy & lunamancy. But for the old school Japanese methods, they need someone with reiki. (To be determined.) Turns out that many of the more humanoid youkai had been hiding amongst humans as people with mutation & emitter quirks since quirks came into being & had been masquerading as regular humans before that since a little after the Sengoku period, around the Meiji era. Of course, no one knows this except the youkai themselves & the hanyou descendants of them, not to mention families of miko, kanushi, hoshi, & taijiya that actually follow the old traditions. It is kept a closely guarded secret by the Nippon Magical Division.

Halfa is the English term for half-ghosts, which means that it wouldn't be the word used too often for Danny, Dina, & Vlad here. Instead, the word used most often would be 'hanyuu' which literally translates to 'half' & 'apparition.'

Here, people are struggling with the idea that these things could be yuurei (spirits) & try to come up with other, quirk-based answers, but are unable.

For Bakugo's part, he had at least one encounter with an Eku-Yuurei & it sorta traumatizes him because his quirk does nothing at all. He may or may not be kinda, sorta... afraid of ghosts now because they can't be blasted away by his quirk & that scares him, but never in his life would he ever admit to it.

For a while, Shouto is the only one to really believe that the Ghosts (Eku/Zumu-Yuurei) are actual Ghosts.

Moving on, because of Izuku's influence, he's able to convince the rest of his friend group to take on hero personas to hide their identities & still help their friend fight ghosts. At first, they just use them when actively patrolling, but Danny (the one with the hands on experience & knack for engineering & science), Tucker (the hacker, coder, & programmer), & Midoriya (being the one to come up with a lot of ideas for support equiment & power usage) eventually work together to study Danny's ability to change clothes when he transforms to build rings that do something similar, but only with clothes, by using ectoplasm. (They don't realize that they basically just revolutionized herowork, because if Heroes don't need to take the time to change then they can get a lot more done. Especially, if they can just low-key it around town on their days off, then immediately be ready with this ring's help. It's even more useful to Underground Heroes.)

They don't really have names, but they opt for a uniform that resembles Danny & Dina's suits & masks. Sam's is a 2 piece with the top being a purple tunic with black racing stripes down the sides & where the neck part is triangular instead of circular. The gloves & boots also have triangular ends. Her bottoms are black & she wears combat boots with steel toes (shaped like a jawless skull). Her mask is black & bat-shaped much like Damian Wayne's mask.

Tucker's is white with orange accents with blue, camo cargo-like bottoms, a bulkier belt for more ghost tech & instead of a mask, he wears a blue visor to hide his features. (Eventually, it'll be more than just a visor, but for now it's just for aesthetics.) No beret, instead a little bit of dread action like when he went goth for a bit, & the tips of the fingers on his gloves & the toes & ankles on his boots are blue.

Izuku's is just basically Danny's, but it's the same color as Izuku's hero costume will be with a basic domino mask to match.

When the Fenton Phones are invented, they each have one as part of their suit before they're built into the masks themselves.

When the Ghost Gloves are made, they become a standard part of Izuku's suit along with the Boo Staff which is an anti-ecto bo staff. When he eventually realizes that he's better with his feet, the team build Ghost Boots for him too. (At some point, the gloves & boots are made more streamlined by Danny & Dina, creating gloves & combat boots with circuitry in the fabric, metal studs on the knuckles, & metal toes. At which point, they become standard for Sam & Tucker too because they're less bulky now. Though, Izuku's will become more bulky once the rest of the team forgives him for keeping OFA a secret from them in order to better withstand his new power.)

Sam is the best shot & is the one with the most anti-ecto guns as well as a Fenton Whiplash, which is just an anti-ecto whip.

Tucker has the most anti-ecto gadgets, in-general.

Tucker's visor links to his pda & has thermal imaging, infrared, night vision, & a Fenton ectographic lense that allows him to see an outline of ghosts even when they're invisible. It takes a good while to make the parts compacted enough to all be used in the others' masks. Years even. (Upon gaining access to nanobots, he & Danny manage to build a spectrometer so compact it actually fits in Tucker's visor. This allows him to see those with invisibility quirks.)

Vlad is an outright villain, one well-known in the criminal underground of America but is too slippery for the authorities. Plasmius, that is. No one knows that Plasmius is also Masters.

However, he is a businessman & was unable to build a full portal from the proto-portal on his own until the Fentons' portal was finished. As such, he only has personal experience with blob ghosts & Skulker. Most of his business in the Infinite Realms was done via a middleman until then. Typically, Skulker himself, as he was the only intelligent ghost able to fit through the proto-portal. As such, keep in mind, all his abilities either came with age or training at home. So, his irl experience in fights are very little & he prefers fights that he knows he will win at & his battle style is to overwhelm opponents with raw power. Occassionally, playing with his food. Not only that, he had no reason to be constantly fighting ghosts & his most basic powers already give him a leg up against quirked individuals. Put these things together & it seems like, though he'd be stronger than in canon, he likely isn't that powerful compaired to his actual potentional. As such, once Danny & Dina start going to U.A. Vlad's gonna realize that not only do they not need him specifically to train them, but that the younger half-ghosts will catch up to him quickly.

Vlad was also born quirkless, so that sorta just added to his overall bitterness in-general. Upon learning about the Twins, he began preparations to take up residence in his Tokyo home to better be able to pester Danny & Dina before setting up a new place of business for VladCo in Musutafu. Walter Weston & his sons moved there for his work.

Ember does eventually show up, but not until she goes on her Japan tour after taking America by storm. This, however, makes her a much more powerful opponent than in canon because she'd technically already accomplished her goal in Fanning the Flames without Danny there to stop her.

Spectra is a wraith & goes wherever there is misery to be had. It just so happens that Casper with all it's quirkist bs is the perfect place for her.

The other important events such as Fright Night, Shades of Grey & every other episode with Valerie, Kindred Spirits, Reign Storm, Ultimate Enemy, Frightmare, Urban Jungle, & D-Stabilize also occures. As well as several other episodes with characters introduced as a result of Vlad's meddling such as Vortex. Control Freaks also happens, but it's due to Freakshow being run out of America.

While Clockwork does appear here, he does so as Daikoku, but with Clockwork's middle age body type & coloration & he doesn't switch between ages here, just staying in his adult form because the age shifting is specifically a quality of his American form. He also goes by Daikoku here because despite Danny, Dina, Sam, & Tucker being originally American, they've lived in Japan for a good while. Not to mention that Izuku is just straight Japanese.

Danny & his sister still manages to find the Far Frozen & Frostbite. Though, I imagine that they originally find a different island of ice first where a tribe of dead yukionna live & they send the pair to the Far Frozen.

Izuku tells Danny & Dina that they should apply for the Hero Course at UA because he's convinced that they'd make for amazing Pro Heroes, but Danny has all kinds of anxiety over that, especially after the Ultimate Enemy. Besides, he still wants to be an astronaut. On the other hand, though Dina wants to be a marine biologist, she has also seen where things are going & has decided that she might as well go whole hog on this hero thing.

Eventually, the beginning of My Hero happens. Izuku had been a vigilante for 2 years, but he's excited to become a hero because he knows that if he can fight ghosts & youkai, he can sure as hell fight ordinary villains. He's even fancying being the first quirkless hero in Japan with a focus on analyzing villains. He had convinced Team Phantom to take up Mrs. Fenton's offer of teaching them karate. However, upon discovering his personal aptitude for kicking, he later takes up taekwondo or kickboxing as well & this allows him to come up with Shoot Style much sooner.

When Bakugo burns his book. Instead of being depressed, he gets angry. He tells his friends to go on because he wants to think. Once they're gone, the Slime Villain attacks. Izuku actually reacts quick enough to dodge out of the way, immediately analyzing him for weaknesses. The villain tries to grab the kid, but no luck. This is when All Might appears & once the villain is taken care of, Izuku has a moment of vulnerability & asks All Might the same question he does in the show.

All Might becomes Small Might & answers much like in the show. Izu becomes depressed at first, hurt by his hero, but then Izuku remembers his friends & becomes determined to prove even All Might wrong.

The event with the Slime Villain & Bakugo happens & Izuku handles it much the same, if more composed & with reflexes honed by ghost fighting & taijiya work, karate with Mrs. Fenton, & taekwondo/kickboxing. When the Pros get onto him, he's honestly offended & thinks to himself, 'at least I did something, you hypocrites.' He becomes angry, seeing Bakugo get praised for basically causing the problem by shooting off his quirk willynilly. Don't get me wrong, Izuku still feels guilty for being the one to accidentally let the Slime Villain go, but he can't help but judge the double standard here. It's part of why he appreciates Sam getting him to help her with advocating for quirkless & 'villainous/weak' quirks' rights. It helps him to better see & identify these wrongs in society & not just think that it's normal.

All Might asks him to be his successor, but then tells him that he can't tell anyone & this creates a problem for Izuku. While he's suspiciously okay with not telling his mom as he knew that she'd always secretly hoped that he'd give up his dream eventually despite how much she loved him (like, she's a good person & a good mother, but she can't help but want her baby safe), he was decidely not okay with keeping his friends in the dark. They'd supported his dream since the very beginning & he didn't want to betray their trust.

Then, summer comes & Reality Trip occurs. The locations they go to are, instead, Tanegashima, home of the Tanegashima Space Center, for Danny, the Churaumi Aquarium in the Okinawa Prefecture for Dina, Akihabara's just entirety for Tucker, & Tokyo for both Sam & Izuku because of the International Conference of Gothic Fashion & All Might Tower.

However, Izuku was unable to go on the road trip because of his training with All Might, but is unable to tell them that so he just makes up an excuse & feels especially guilty about it afterwards because of what happened. Upon learning that the twins' secret was out & that they & the team were on the run, Izuku left too but is captured by Freakshow.

His previous training & experience as a vigilante does lessen the amount of strain on his body & he's able to finish the beach much quicker than in the show. This allows him more time to acclimate to the power of OFA & he doesn't have to rely entirely on the 60 points he got in canon. But that's getting ahead of ourselves.

After that is over, not long after, Dina starts looking to apply to the Hero Course & she's struggling over whether to apply as Fenton or Phantom until she decides to play it safe as Fenton, but that means that she can't go ghost & has to rely on her quirk & her enhanced human capabilities as well as her mother's training. She can make it out to seem like her quirk mutated so that it allowed her to use her healing energy as kinetic energy & increase her physical attributes as well as woke up a dormant regenerative property. These things are at least related enough that she can get away with saying that they're all the same quirk. Even so, she does very well on villain points & racks up with hero points. So, she gets a really high score.

Tucker applies for the Support Course where he actually gets himself a girlfriend in Hatsume. Sam is in Gen Ed, but is determined to make it into the Hero Course through the Sports Festival just to prove she can.

Eventually, during the rest of summer Phantom's caught by Nezu, who'd been studying him ever since he first appeared, & offers him a full scholarship to U.A.'s Hero Course. The little creature knows who his civilian self is & promises not to tell anyone.

By this point, everyone is aware that the ghosts are real ghosts & heroes in Musutafu are required to have at least 1 piece of anti-ecto equipment made by the Fentons & to have basic hunter training (the sort of hero they are tends to determine what sort of anti-ecto weaponry they get; All Might gets Ghost Gloves, Snipe gets an anti-ecto gun, Midnight gets the Jack-o-Ninetails & Fenton Whiplash, that sort of thing; all have thermoses of their own), but even still Phantom & his team are far & above more effective than the Heroes at it & this causes further strain between Heroes & society. Part of why Nezu opted to try & enroll the other twin was to help smooth over this problem at least a little.

At the same time, most Heroes are unable to do much in regards to the regular yuurei & youkai. They can at least knock most youkai out with their quirks, as ones that don't directly affect the quirk factor work just fine, but trying to contain them without specialized equipment that is specifically made to do so, is a fool's errand.

Nezu eventually convinces Danny to attend partially. He gets his parents to let him take classes online, when he's also gonna be attending U.A. as Phantom because he doesn't want anyone to know he's Fenton. So, his regular classes are online & the ones that pertain to heroics & science are at U.A. This allows Danny to better maintain his grades & still be able to go out & fight ghosts.

Danny then informs Nezu of Izuku's analytical abilities & this immediately piques the principle's interest. He eventually takes Izuku on as a personal student, giving him private lessons to improve his analytics. He adores the boy!

Danny & Dina both pass the entrance exam, Danny with a higher score than Bakugo & this tickles the ghostly twins positively pink. They hate that asshole for all the grief he'd given Izuku as much as Danny hated Dash & Dina hated Paulina. Bakugo also picked on Danny & Dash would occasionally mess with Izuku, however it was well-known in Casper that while Danny was considered Dash's punching bag, Izuku's was Bakugo's. Anyway, Bakugo hates the ghost kid for one-upping him. He especially hates that he was hanging out with Deku.

During the exam, Izuku's battle-honed instincts cause him to react immediately when Mic says go & he uses his new quirk to destroy a few robots before saving Uraraka. This lands him third on the board, right behind Bakugo. This only further pisses the pissy little pomeranian off.

By this point, the Phantoms & their Team are famous & is a hot topic of debate & controversy amongst all walks of life, especially teens. Everyone knows that the twins are ghosts (but not that they're Danny & Dina) so they don't know if they should be held to the same standards as humans & be considered vigilantes or not. As the terms 'hero,' 'villain,' & 'vigilante' are all defined, in law, by the use of quirks in this day & age, but only Dina uses her quirk as Phantom & everyone just assumes that it's a ghost power as the Fentons have proven that ghosts can't have quirks because quirks are bound to the organic body.

The same could be said of the human members of Team Phantom. In fact, many of their fans insist that the humans don't seem to use any quirks & only use equipment. As such, they aren't breaking any laws since the law against vigilanteism has long since been redefined to refer to the illigal use of quirks to perform herowork.

As such, even when Team Phantom does involve themselves in herowork, they can't really be arrested because they haven't broken any laws as far as anyone knows. In all honesty, the ones who complain the loudest tend to be corrupt heroes & cops, people involved with the Commission (because they can't control them), the radical left, the media, the Fenton parents, & the GIW. So, basically no one else.

The Fentons are adamant that the Phantom Pair can't be judged by human standards & are simply menaces & pests, but there's much debate over this.

Danny takes Hagakure's place because they have, essentially, the same power, but Danny has even more. So, she ends up in Class 1-B instead.

Because of Izuku having better control of OFA than in canon, Aizawa doesn't feel the need to target him specifically & so Izu scores higher than Kirishima, but lower than Bakugo, who, again, scores lower than Danny.

During the quirk assessment test, it's discovered that, when Phantom put on the school's exercise uniform, that rings automatically appeared around his waist &, initially he panics thinking that he's turning back to a human in front of his classmates until they all realized that the blue in the uniform had just turned black. This puzzled him & Iida scolded him about the uniform policy, but Danny defended himself, saying that he didn't do it intentionally. He tried to make it turn back, but he couldn't before it was time to leave & meet their sensei outside.

Of course, Aizawa noticed immediately & told him to change back, but Danny informed him that it happened automatically upon putting on the gym uniform & he'd been trying to change it back since then. This interested most of the class, especially Izuku, who figured that they should look into this new aspect of Danny's powers later when they had time. He especially wondered why it didn't do the same when he put on the school uniform.

Upon experimenting with this, they discovered that the same happened with Dina & that it only happened when the outfit didn't conform with their ghost form's color scheme & that whatever was determining this must've thought that the school uniform was close enough that it only changed minor details like the color of the tie & the buttons.

This moved on to Team Phantom trying to figure out how to permanently change the twins' costumes for upgraded suits. It was eventually discovered that the Phantoms' suits were part of their ghostly auras. This aura connects the suit to the Phantoms themselves & not only gives the clothes regenerative properties, but even if they're cut off of them, should they transform back into Phantom later, the old suits will disappear & reappear back on them again, good as new.

Also, if they focused on it while holding their new suit, they can shift their aura from their old suit to their new one. This results in the old suits' colors reversing & becoming a normal hazmat again (though, the original suits become fried to a crisp & gives the Team momentary PTSD as they remembered what did that), while the new one takes on Phantom's color scheme & gains the old suits' ghostly properties. Izuku & Dina both find it very interesting.

Either way, Aizawa has to let the matter go. If Phantom can't control it then what can he do?

Anyway, during the USJ, Danny learns that Shigiraki's quirk only works between 25-50% as well on him in ghost form. The reason turns out to be because, in ghost form, a hanyuu's cells are constructed from ectoplasm which works as an alternative to matter. Shigiraki's quirk only works on matter.

So, while it's not as effective on halfas/hanyuu, Danny & Dina have to be careful because it eats away at their human halves while leaving their ghost half in-tact. For whatever reason, their ghostly healing doesn't work as well on areas affected by Shigi's quirk & they're forced to heal at a somewhat regular speed.

Later, the grape shit is transfered out of class for repeated sexual harassment offenses because Danny & Dina make a point to report every offense that they witness & after the Sports Festival, Sam is transferred in to take his place because she got farther than Shinso.

Sam & Shinso become good friends & they end up dating for a while before the Gregor thing. It doesn't last, but they enjoy themselves & it ends amiably between them.

Izuku takes Ochako's words from the beginning of the year to heart & uses "Dekiru" instead of Deku for his hero name.

Neither Danny nor Dina is there for the Stain events, because Danny is working with Ectoplasm to learn how to duplicate because it turns out that Ectoplasm's quirk actually works via ectoplasm, making him ecto-liminal. However, this means that Ectoplasm is practically the only Pro able to do anything about the Eku-Yuurei in the beginning.

As a result, Jack & Maddie are initially suspicious of him for it & demands that he submit to rigorous testing to prove that he really is just a human with an ectoplasm-based quirk rather than a Ghost impersonating a hero or being possessed by one. They also demand to be there for it to make sure there is no ghostly tomfoolery involved & as the people with the most knowledge of Ghosts, they are allowed.

At the same time, because Ectoplasm really is just a human with a ghostly quirk, all tests show this & while it took a while for Jack & Maddie to come to terms with the idea that there are instances where organic matter can interact with ectoplasm without the organic matter breaking down, this means that they aren't as skeptical of the kids having ghost powers once Doctor's Disorders comes around.

Jack is the one who comes around quickest, siting that it opens up so many new possibilities. However, they keep a wary eye on Ectoplasm as they aren't sure if this means that he'll eventually become an obsessive evil monster like other Ghosts. This also interests Izuku & Quirk Researchers as it suggests that quirks can interact with things previously considered myth.

It brings into question whether Ryukyu's transformation quirk is just turning her into something that merely looks like a dragon or if it turns her into an actual dragon. Which, if the former, would indicate that dragons are real!

It turns out that her actual quirk performed something like draconic atavisim on her, turning her into a draconid because she had a dragon ancestor. Learning this, she tries to learn more about this aspect of herself & learns that she has something like aerokinesis & her scales can reflect ectoplasm, giving her some form of defense against Eku-Yuurei.

Despite this, Ectoplasm actually works closely with the Fentons to learn as much as he can about his situation & how best to fight these Eku-Yuurei.

On the other hand, Dina is interning with Recovery Girl & is looking into becoming a Rescue Hero. Because she initially starts off hiding the fact that she's a Phantom, she has to rely on her quirk & physical abilities in order to help out.

Sam, Tucker, Jazz, & Izuku are all ecto-liminal to a degree, Jazz far & above more so than the others, but it doesn't start showing itself until later.

The class does eventually learn about Danny's identity, but not until, like, after they all move into the dorms. As soon as that happens, Dina reveals herself too. Bakugo has a bit of a fit over not only Deku hiding his quirk & mocking him behind his back all those years, but also the twins.

However, that sets both of them off. Dina informs the asshole that not only did they only get their powers a couple years ago, they weren't even a quirk. They're ghost powers that they only got when she & her brother died & were ripped back to life. Danny shows the jerk the massive lichtenberg scars that start from the palm of his hand, goes up his arm before finally ending over his heart. So, Bakugo could fuck the hell off!

A week after the USJ & before the Sports Festival, Dina begins dating Iida for a few years. Which means that Iida gets pretty stressed out when Dina just up & decides to use her quirk on people with particularly severe injuries.

After a very serious talk about this after a near fatal use of her quirk, Dina stops just using it on such severe cases & begins to go through a process where she uses her ghostly healing powers 1st until it's much less severe & has medical assistance on standby before she uses it. This helps to alleviate some of Iida's stress as he knows that he can't stop her from trying to help those in need. She's a hero-in-training afterall.

In case none of you know, this will also be DFO.

---

Instead of moving to Musutafu to become mayor, Vlad just moves there to set up a new branch of his business & uses that as an excuse to keep messing with his little badger & kitten, as well as their little friends.

While Danny is a fan of Thirteen, he isn't as big of one as Uraraka simply because Thirteen, despite being a space-themed Hero is just a Rescue Hero. As such, they don't actually work with JAXA. Like, they support the program, but aren't really trained as an astronaut or astrophysicist or aerospace engineer or anything like that.

If Danny has to be a Pro Hero, he's determined to instead actually work with the Space Program.

Danny, due to his experience helping his parents out around the lab, has a lot of experience with their tech & has quite a natural talent for engineering. This eventually comes to Power Loader's attention & he asks if the kid would be willing to transfer classes, but Danny turns him down. Despite the fact that doing so would give him a leg up on other applicants trying for the Space Program later, Danny feels like he has a responsibility to keep to heroics. Power Loader says that he can dual major later if he gets his grades up. Power Loader himself is a Support Hero after all. If nothing else, Danny should at least consider joining the Support Club as it will also give him credit towards engineering which can be applied to a space-oriented career. The teenage ghost boy said he'd think about it.

Dina, on the other hand, is a major fan of Gang Orca & Selkie.

Many of the teachers recommend several different types of hero work to Danny & Dina, from rescue to underground, because of just how versatile their powers are.

---

Dina actually goes through a series of extreme medical complications starting from the Stain incident & ending after the Overhaul arc.

While she wasn't there for the Stain arc, she was there just after. Seeing how much it hurt Iida to see his brother like that, she offered to try & heal him. While she didn't guarantee that it would work, she at least thought it was a good idea to try.

So excited was Iida that he entirely forgot about the other aspect of her Quirk. Specifically that it was Injury Exchange. It worked, but both Iidas were shocked & terrified when she couldn't get up from the seat she very specifically took before performing the process.

In the end, Iida is extremely grateful, but insanely worried for her health. Luckily, she reminds him that her quirk also has a regeneration aspect to it, which calms both Iidas down somewhat. Iida becomes flustered & lectures her about recklessness. To which Dina replies that recklessness implies that one didn't think things through. To the contrary, she thought quite a lot about the choice, weighing the pros & cons. It's simply that she came to the conclusion that it was worth more to help a hero back onto his feet when she, herself, would recover from those same injuries just fine with a little aid.

Needless to say, Iida was a little blindsided by this explanation & blushed, chastised.

After Kimino Ward, Dina uses her quirk on All Might, surprising & horrifying him as she falls to her knees coughing up blood.

She's rushed to the emergency room.

Toshinori is eternally grateful, but begs her to never do such a thing again. That she shouldn't have done so to begin with. To which, she responds by saying that he spent his whole life giving up everything for society. The least he deserves is to be able to live the rest of his life healthy.

To this, Toshinori is stunned.

As a result of this, she's out of commission for a while until she recovers from losing a lung & her stomach.

When she later hears about Nighteye, she stumbles to his room & does the same, nearly dying again right there, but saving his life.

This is the incident that leads to Iida & her having a serious talk & Dina taking more safe measures when using her quirk on severe injuries.

Trying to figure out how the ghosts react to major events in the MHA world and I just

I know it boils down to the different genres and ratings, but there's such a vast difference in the conflicts. Some of the worst DP had was Pariah Dark and Dan for big impact bad times, and they also had that weather spirit and the plant dude, Overgrowth? Meanwhile the MHA kids face death on their first week of school, they get Shigaraki, Stain, All for One, Overhaul.

Not to mention the DP universe had that cartoon logic so th characters bounce back from just about anything, whereas MHA, All Might is missing a few vital organs, Midoriya is a few Smash's away from losing the use of his arms, and the writers are not at all afraid of killing or maiming characters.

Ans the Hero's Spirit au, like the ghosts go from occasionally tussling with the annoying halfa to 2 centuries of being sealed away, to being brought in to an unfamiliar time and seeing the humans just tear each other apart.

(I went on a tangent bc minutes before I read your post talking about how the ghosts look at Izuku and expect him to live up to Danny's greatness, I was watching a clip from Heroes Rising, from the final battle, and I was just "oh you have no idea". Even if he doesn't get OfA this time around, this kid is unstoppable)

.

There are newer ghosts who’ve formed in the intervening time who are more aware of the world as it is, and probably at lest a few created by Overhaul directly (and more than a few from AFO). But to anyone from Danny’s time this is a very new world and they’re surprised to find the Ghost Child is the least of their worries.

broke out the ol' drawing tablet for this!halfa!izuku’s vigilante outfit!

because in dp danny’s eyes go from blue to green i thought it’d be fun for izuku’s green to go to blue. as a nod to that. he doesn’t have ice powers he’ll have something else but i tried to keep izuku’s outfit very blue-toned.
