I love ur Sidney Pointdexter! I love the stretchy arms like old 50’s cartoons! If there was a DP rewrite how would u introduce him?

he's based on my alter of him, actually! I asked him and he says he doesnt have it concrete.but he that he imagines it this way:

His backstory would play out the same, save for a small detail - Sidney loved cartoons, since he was very young until his teen years. He attempted to learn to draw but had no luck, instead deciding to focus on his typical studies instead.

As a ghost, in the school purgatory Sidney's bullying is instead played off as a cruel joke. Laugh tracks play while he gets hurt.

In the episode - Danny would activate the mirror's gateway by touching it as before. However this time the magic getting revenge on the bullies would be a LOT more over the top. Sam would accuse Danny like in canon only for him to be confused about what she meant.

Danny, in typical behavior attempts his possession trick and calls Sidney forth, only now the locker door flies open, and he claws his way out, impossible to not notice.

Sidney quickly accuses Danny, believing he was using his powers to hurt others. However because I think the original moral and misunderstanding of the original episode is REALLY dumb, Danny will be able to explain the truth immediately. Sidney, realizing that he and Danny were somewhat similar, he decides to team up with him. This is overheard by Sam, who is displeased.

The episode would be the two of them getting back at bullies and dodging(a montage maybe?) until the near end of the school day. Laying on the roof of the school, it's revealed that Danny's parents had been called in due to the activity all day, and they had finally arrived. Danny, notably freaked out, asks Sidney to stay hidden. Sidney, confused, listens in on what he had to say to his parents. He sees how scared he seemed of them, and decides to "help" Danny.

In a major burst of his powers he takes over the school, and pulls Danny into the mirror with him. Here we see what he had went through in purgatory. Sidney says they could stay here and fight for justice forever. The students needed them. Danny, knowing he would miss his life, declines, and tries to leave. Sidney did not like this idea.

He transforms his version of Casper High. (A huge, cartoon-y birdcage locking it in comes to mind) and it was then up to Danny to stop him. Danny tells him it's not his responsibility to save everyone. While what he went through was not his fault, and he was right to be angry, he instead needed to move on, instead of clinging to the idea of justice being his purpose. Danny still had a life outside of fighting ghosts, after all. Why did Sidney need to fight for eternity, too?

For once Danny can talk his way out of a problem, and Sidney decides he was right. He wouldn't stop fighting, but he wouldn't force Danny to stay. He hands the mirror over, allowing Danny to leave. As he looks back, Sidney says he'll always be there to lend a hand. And would then be an occasional ally to the team if they go through the ghost zone.

what do you know, destroying a school in a fit of revenge-driven anger isn’t exactly the best thing for your psyche..?
