So, I actually have Big Thoughts on this.
Forever ago, when I was in college - (i.e., literally last year) I was taking a marketing class. The focus on that lecture was audience engagement and how to further get people to interact or react to certain things. One of the examples my prof gave was the Sims starter houses. Those flawed, ugly things? They're meant to give little objects and goals to the person playing the game. Y'know, a kind of... "Oh this would look so much better with this colored couch. That's the perfect amount of space for a desk! Let's put you here, then that makes room for this guitar..." It offers the chance to take something flawed and change it to be better.
Another example was Social Media, like YouTube. Best way for YouTubers to get engagement is pose a question to their audience: "how do you feel about this new Pokemon design? I think it's a bit ugly and could be changed if they swapped such a bright yellow for a more sunset color." OR to make a mistake like "Wes Weston is a canon character in the Danny Phantom universe! He has a cameo in episode 2 of season 1 and later appears having a conversation with Sam in episode 9 of season 3." Which, as any DP fan can confirm, isn't true. So people will go to the comments and tell the YouTuber their wrong about Wes Weston or correct about that ugly Pokemon looking better without that nightmare of a yellow color.
Point is, Danny Phantom is a show that is so perfectly flawed. It opened so many opportunities for amazing lore at honestly? The perfect time for a lot of us little internet trolls to get hooked. It's flaws makes our obsessive selves want to fix it - to take it and make it better.
The right of conquest for Pariah's Dark crown is a complete fanon thing born from the fact that the show's creator was... Frankly, a terrible long-plot writer (screw you, Hartman). But for those of us that are and enjoy the DP fan space? It gives us so many chances to interject and create. AUs like "No One Knows", "Ghost King Danny", "Liminal Amity Park" and so many others are only possible because it's not canon. If it was, yeah a lot of us would be pretty hype about it... But at the same time, it would take away from the wonder of creating it ourselves. It's why Danny Phantom - a show that's been off the air for how long again? 17 years??? Almost long enough to be considered an adult in the United States??? - is still alive and kicking. Why we have characters like Wes Weston and fanon that's basically canon, like Obsessions and "Cores are a ghosts entire being".
If it was a perfect show, then I doubt this fandom would still have successful events like DannyMay. Hell, it's why this fandom gets along so well with the DC Universe. "Disregard Canon" and all that.
Anyways thanks for coming to my TedTalk, hope that made sense LOL
Danny Phantom was such a stupid and frustrating show because they'd use a weird random moment to dump some of the wildest lore on you and then NEVER touch it again. Oh yeah there was a group of ancient ghosts strong enough to seal away the literal manifestation of war and brutality but anyway here's a fart joke. Sure there's a syndicate of living (?) eyeballs that manipulate existence from the sidelines and also a ghost that's a literal god of time but who cares about that when we can joke about being a vegetarian. A billionaire made his fortune because he literally got ghost powers in college in a horrible disfiguring accident and he's making clones of his ex-friend's son because he so bitterly alone but whatever here's five jokes about the Green Bay Packers and we're gonna turn that dude into a running gag now.
The Ghost Zone is alluded to be fucking alive but we're never gonna talk about it because uh

We need to talk about the worst thing about making AUs....
The fact that then when you inevitably think about crossovers you don't want the crossover with the canon you want it with your specific AU. Your brain worms, your circus, but THEN WHAT?
Oh, yeah, to understand this crossover you need to go read this entirely different fic/series? Girl help 😭 you can't do that

i really love dc x dp tbh but i hate how so many fics end up making the batfam dumb as shit. and i don't mean in a "loveable goof" kind of way but in a genuine "these people don't have the skills or intelligence to be heroes" kind of way. which is just antithetical to their entire thing
sometimes it's because the writer just genuinely doesn't know anything about the batfam or what they've been through so they come across as idiots. and other times it's because the writer is writing op ghost king danny or just generally op danny and they genuinely think he could outsmart or beat them. more often than not, it's a combination of the two.
it's just so sad. like not only is it disrespectul to the batfam, essentially getting rid of all the skills and experience they have just to prop up danny, but it also makes things a lot more boring imo. don't get me wrong, i don't mind the occasional "main character is super op" kind of story, but it's boring when like 70% of fics are like that and there's no real challenge or obstacle for him. part of why the show danny phantom was so fun was that it was exciting and chair gripping to see danny have to deal with his new ghost powers, figuring out how to deal with ghost attacks or vlad, and dealing with school and his parents on top of that.
but often, dc x dp fics just,, get rid of any challenge for him. sure batman is a skilled detective but danny will always be able to trick him! sure cass has been trained since birth to read people's body language but this random ghost teen knows how to conceal and control everything!! yeah damian has also been trained since birth to fight and kill but this random guy from the midwest who just started fighting in his teens is so much better!!! like, alright. it's fun every now and then but it sucks when so much of the dc x dp content is just people acting like the batfam are the worst vigilantes/detectives in the world.
and honestly i still feel this way even with the ghost king danny fics because how? he's never had to deal with people obsessively reading his body language or reading between the lines. he's had to deal with hiding stuff sure but his parents aren't the most observant people - their whole deal was being neglectful. even as a ghost king, why would he know how to outsmart, take advantage of, or beat the batfam in any capacity when he would still mostly deal with ghosts. it's a completely different skill set here - one that he likely wouldn't be prepared for. it'd be fine if they at least attempted to explain why danny would have those skills (like league danny aus) but most of them don't.
and i'm not saying danny couldn't do it at all, especially if it's a ghost king au, but i'm just tired of seeing the batfam constantly downplayed in these fics Just to make danny look better, smarter, stronger, etc. ik most people in the fandom are just danny fans but it really shows with how they treat, characterize, and shit on the dc characters just to prop danny up. it also serves to occasionally make danny look like an asshole when he intentionally messes with them and basically commits psychological torture for a goof.
#man...#i Do like this crossover but i completely understand why so many dc fans hate it#the oocness the fanon the constantly making these skilled trained characters fumble around and get outsmarted by Some Guy#ghost king danny isn't even canon to dp! which isnt a bad thing by any means ik the dp fandom goes crazy for fanon#and generally speaking the fanon Is a lot more fun and engaging than dp's canon#but as a dc fan its insane to watch#i want to engage more with dc x dp content so badly like this crossover is really interesting to me#but so much of it is just 'the bat.fam are actually fucking useless and my blorbo is so much better :)))'#it's almost like they dont even like the bat.fam!!! they keep saying they just dont know/understand them#but it fully feels like they straight up dont like the dc characters#it definitely comes across as 'hey this is a fun world to put danny in lets do that while also shitting on it and all of the characters'#'lol bruce is so stupid this random teen can outsmart him and he can lie to cass and he can beat dick in a physical fight lol'#there's a point where it stops feeling like indulgent op blorbo and more like insulting anyone who isn't danny#<thats actually exactly what it is and its insane to me like why even like crossovers if you dont want to engage with anyone but danny#how can you say you like them when you outright refuse to know them or respect them?#and obviously im using 'you' in a vague way im not specifically calling anyone out#ik there are people in the fandom who are genuinely fans of both and Do know and respect the dc characters#but so far its very few and far between which is just such a fandom culture shock for me#like in most fandoms im able to read a lot of fics and only occasionally think 'thats not right'#but with this one its the other way around - im constantly going 'they wouldnt say/do that at all why does the op think that?'#like 9 out of 10 fics im like 'oh yeah this person has never read a comic in their life'#i can immediately tell when someone has only read the webtoon its extremely obvious unfortunately#maybe i should make a dc masterlist for dp fans... like here you can write about them again After you do your homework ajdhgl

DPxDC Negativity
Hey this is just a friendly reminder that I'm going to put in the plainest terms that I can.
If you are telling people how they should and should not participate in fandom you are GATEKEEPING
If you are telling people that they need to read more comics before writing fanfic you are GATEKEEPING
If you are telling people that they need to do more research into canon in any form, whether that be reading wikis, reading comics, watching shows, whatever you are GATEKEEPING
If you are telling people that what they are writing is not canon compliant and therefore not a valid way to participate in fandom you are GATEKEEPING
Fandom is supposed to be fun
Fanfiction is supposed to be fun
We are not writing these stories for anyone but ourselves. And to tell someone that they are participating in fandom wrong is GATEKEEPING
There are plenty of fanfics in the DC only sphere and the DP sphere that are so far away from canon it's unreal and that's totally okay!
People are allowed to enjoy fandom in however the hell they please. If that means they are writing a crap ton of Batfam/Danny Phantom content and not very much Justice League/DP content, that's totally okay.
If someone read the Wayne Family Adventures Webtoon and decided that they want to write Danny being adopted into a loving and crazy Batfamily that is totally one hundred percent fine.
If someone wants to write Danny with abusive and neglectful parents guess what? they can.
If they want to write Vlad as being a nurturing and loving godfather to Danny, they can.
What I'm trying to explain to you all is that it's okay to write things that are not canon compliant. It's okay to write things that are so far away from canon it's not even recognizable--I mean have you even read a fantasy au or a no capes au? That's basically just slapping a characters name and face to an OC. And guess what? THAT'S OKAY.
It's also okay to want to see more people interact with the canon lore, to want to share resources and tell people about your special interests. But the moment you start doing it and it makes people feel bad-- even if that is not your intention you are GATEKEEPING.
Gatekeeping is defined as the activity of controlling, and usually limiting, general access to something.
By you telling others what they should and should not write, you are being a gatekeeper.
I get it, you want to share lore, you want to show that you know all these cool things about DC. You want more than just batfam and DP content. That's totally valid and really cool.
Do it yourself.
Don't take someone else's joy away simply because it's not what you want to see. They aren't writing it for you, they're writing it for themselves. You're just a lucky person who gets to see the beautiful works that they are putting time and effort into.
When I joined DPxDC I knew absolute shit about DC. Over the last year, I've read over 400 issues of the Batman comics, read all of the Red Robin series, and a smattering of random other comics with plans to read others. But when I started writing? I knew jackshit. My knowledge came from the Teen Titans cartoon, the Batman animated series, and vague memories of watching the Justice League animated series as a kid.
And if Dis from a year ago saw this gatekeeping shit, they would have never started writing for the fandom because they would have been too scared to be told they were doing it wrong.
Now? I'm writing DC only fics based off of what I learned in the comics and it's a lot of fun.
But I did that because I wanted to, I was starting to get more and more interested in DC and I wanted to know more. And I had access to pay for DC Infinite so that I could get access to the comics. Not everyone has that luxury.
Not everyone has the luxury of being able to read them from free sites either. Maybe they have to use a public computer that doesn't have ad blockers. Maybe their local libraries don't have access to the comics. You don't know what their situation is.
Maybe you're being well intentioned. Maybe you're just wanting to share your wealth of knowledge with the fandom. But remember, if just one person is getting hurt by your statements, that means you're no longer being helpful. You're being harmful. You're scaring off a new fan who was super insanely excited to start sharing their headcanons.
You're making people feel unwelcome. And that's not fucking cool.
Fandom is supposed to be a welcoming space for everyone, it's supposed to uplift and bring joy. Not make people feel bad for not knowing enough, or for feeling too anxious to even begin figuring out where in the 75 year history of DC they should start reading.
I know that's what kept me from reading the comics for a long time. it was just too overwhelming. It still is overwhelming for me and thats with having friends telling me where to start and what comics are best to read.
Before I end this super hella long rant I want to remind you of one last thing.
You don't know what someone has read or researched before writing their fic. You don't know just how much they know about that character or universe. For all you know, they may have read, watched, consumed every single piece of DC media in existence. But they may still interpret it different than you did and that does not mean that their Bruce Wayne is OOC because it doesn't align with how you interpret Bruce Wayne. it just means that they view his character differently than you do.
And that's such a beautiful fucking thing don't you think? That a single character, a single universe, a single fucking line can be interpreted hundreds of different ways by hundreds of different people and it's still valid.
It's what makes fandom so freaking cool in the first place.
Like one day someone woke up and they were watching Danny Phantom and they thought hm, what if I had Danny Fenton go to Gotham one day and hang out with the bats? And next thing you know, now we have thousands upon thousands of different fanfics, fan art and HCs, all because of it. All because someone had that one idea and shared it and others saw it, interpreted it their own way, and decided to create even more.
And now we're here! And this fandom is beautiful and thriving. There are so many amazing and lovely people in this fandom. There are so many discords to talk about fandom, there's so many events, a DPxDC Bang is the works, a DPxDC fanzine is in the works.
That's so fucking cool and we should be celebrating that! Not making others feel bad for not knowing as much as others.

The DC x DP Justice League problem
I've noticed a pattern when it comes to DC x DP crossovers where when the Justice League has to deal with anything involving the Danny phantom world They are out matched and outclassed in every way.
I know most people in the DC x DP fandoms haven't ever picked up a comic, or watched DC media that wasn't animated (or sometimes haven't even watched Danny phantom) in their lives but at some point it gets ridiculous how incompetent the regular JL is made when it comes to combating the supernatural. 
And as an all-things DC enjoyer this hurts me.
Like Superman, multiple times in the past has gone up against ghosts, ghosts like beings, and ghostly Abilities using his powers like for example:
Superman was able to freeze Ghost Soldier, who could turn intangible, using his freeze breath.
Tumblr media
He could Freeze Zatanna's astral form
Tumblr media
He was able to decimate the Phantom Stranger's physical AND metaphysical form.
Tumblr media
He used his freeze breath to freeze the essence/spirit of H'el in time.
Tumblr media
When the Fortress Of Solitude's security program projections were turned into ghosts, he could still blast them with his heat vision.
Tumblr media
He withstood being stabbed through his heart and soul with magic a sword.
Tumblr media
He tanked silver banshees scream (which affects the spirit) head on.
Tumblr media
His super vision can also look past someone's body and mind to examine their soul.
Tumblr media
When it comes to Wonder Woman her shield, blade, braces, lasso, tiara, and entire body are all blessed with the power of the literal gods there is no way she wouldn't be able to go straight up to a ghost and punch it intangibility or not.
Her lasso can even drag a soul out of someone's body if needed.
Tumblr media
Same goes for Captain Marvel and his lightning.
All of Hawkman and Hawkwoman's armor (the little of it they actually wear) and weapons are made out of nth metal, which is a metal in DC that affects supernatural beings like ghost, zombies, vampire, Spirits, specters, shade's, werewolves, "the Lazarus demon" and reanimated corpses, just like any other creature no matter how strong.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman and Green Arrow have an entire arsenal made out of the stuff too, just in case.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In injustice both Green Arrow and Green Lantern have whole suits made out of it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And even if you don't count injustice, (which is understandable) Green lanterns can easily have their rings copy the atomic structure of any thing they need (like kryptonite for example) and since their suits are made from their rings, they would still have no problem making a suit (or really any weapon they need out of the stuff).
Tumblr media
Batman has a pair of gloves that John Constantine gave him specifically used to fight ghosts.
Tumblr media
And it's been stated that the Batcave has supernatural barriers and wards to stop ghosts and stuff from getting in. (so no just casual walking into the bat cave).
And when it comes to the whole "ghost king summoning" thing I get it it's a fun concept to play around with, but the JL and JL Dark have so many other options other than to summon what they usually believe to be an interdimensional eldritch being into their world.
like the phantom zone projector something that was able to work on Mister Mxyzptlk a full-blown reality warper from the 5th dimension.
Tumblr media
Or contacting the other supernatural experts that aren't just Constantine and Zatanna (which are usually the only contact for supernatural problems the JL has in most fic's for some reason).
Or batman just contacting the strongest supernatural being he knows, who without a doubt would come stop a major supernatural threat (as its usually depicted)
SPAWN. (The guys so op in supernatural power it's crazy)
Tumblr media
There are so many other options than summoning the ghost king.
And in a lot of fic's the supernatural members (or just any member that would could help in a given situation) are off world (for some reason?) so they can't be contacted.
That just doesn't make much sense when the JL has the technology of so many advanced civilizations and individual people (witch some are said to be among the smartest in the universe) at their disposal, they should be able to contact their people halfway across the universe.
All of this is to say that due to widespread ignorance of the world of Detective Comics and the capabilities of its hero's (and sometimes Danny Phantom) that most DC x DP situations, stories, and scenarios end up with the Justice League a collection of the earths greatest hero's, being completely and utterly helpless and incompetent against any problems coming from the world of Danny Phantom (or just the supernatural in general).
This is to no one's fault of course, believe me no one knows all of DC lore and all it's details in its entirety.
But being someone that knows a lot about DC and seeing how useless a lot of DC characters are portrayed in most situations when you know they really wouldn't be having that much of an issue handling it, creates a weird disconnect between the two fandoms where it always seems more like the Danny Phantom fandom with DC characters stapled to it.

The king's dead (long live the king) - Masterpost
In this post I'll be updating everything I have on this AU. The tag will be "Eldritch Ghost King!Danny" if you want to search my blog!
It was a big project I wanted to challenge myself with, with crazy lore and worldbuilding, with a lot of exploration of eldritchness and angst. But I just got absorbed by DPxDC crossover, saw my niche in writing romance, got obsessed with Jason and Jazz and the rest is history.
I feel it's a crime none of this will probably see the light of day, so. Here. Chaotic mode it is. Fish my posts boy. I will post sporadically about this AU. You have been warned.
If someone wants to take anything from the lore or ideas, you are welcome to! Tag me so I can check it out!
Also I'm down for discussing AU with people 👀✨
What is this fic about?
This was supposed to be my magnum opus. It's the "main" fic in my AO3 series You and me and our best friends make three. So far the series has side stories or one shots located in different moments of the story. The main fic was supposed to tell the full story on how it happened, how we ended up here.
Back in 2021, when I went down the rabbit hole with Danny Phantom, I envisioned a neat AU where Danny was this eldritch ghost king... with a twist.
I love eldritch Danny (those who know me can confirm) but I wanted to explore something I haven't seen a lot even in the angst torture-vivisection saturated market of this 20 year old fandom:
What if the Ghost King is not power, but a sacrifice?
What if it is not known that the Ghost King is actually the host of a powerful entity (I called it The Whisper, because it talks in your mind in whispers) who is always hungry. Always. Hungry. And if it doesn't have a host will eat all the Infinite Realms then the Living World.
The Ghost King makes a pact with the Whisper. The King can tap into the ectoplasm, the energy, of every creature, object, city, etc. in the Realms and convert that energy into food for the Whisper.
But nobody knows this. Is a secret shared from King to King, and you only find out after accepting the crown.
Why would you refuse? Is the King, it's an honor, is power, is greatness. Who would deny the Whisper its food?
Only one managed to sever the connection.
His name was Pariah Dark.
He went insane.
What is The Whisper?
Tumblr media
Basically this ⬆
Is a cosmic entity that was stranded on Earth a loooong time ago. It created the Infinite Realms with its flesh and blood (ectoplasm) and all ectoplasmic creatures come from it.
But its hungry.
-----
Posted chunks of story so far and their order in the timeline:
Act I:
Desired - Danny meets the Core for the first time
Ceremony - Danny is crowned King
Party like you are dead - the Ghost King invites all of Amity Park to his castle. Reveals all around.
Act II:
Never judge a book by its cover (dpxdc crossover)(my very first dpxdc work!) - Justice League summons the Ghost King to help deal with an eldritch creature. What they get may be a worse monster
Hidden identities? Never heard of them (dpxdc crossover) - direct sequel to the previous part. Batman and some of the colony go to Amity to investigate. They catch glimpses of horrors that they can't help but wonder
Remedy (+18!!!)(my very first DP fanfic!) - self indulgent Porn Without Plot in this universe. Placed in a distant future where everything is fine
Race ya! - funny haha thing set a bit after Remedy

not rlly a point im just writing to put my thoughts down, i think ive said heart was like the "character" aspect before, the leijons ship their friends in a way reminicent to how fandom ships characters. dps is the self actualized version of their components and is the final stage of their character arcs. dirk is made up of multiple characters and becomes different characters in the comic yk.
damn this got long
bc character transitions can b easily read as a trans metaphor, u can point to dps, who is canonically queer, and dirk(s) to be like oh yep trans gender. dirk's relationship to his body as well as bgd and hal's is rly interesting. hal has zero control over the safety of his body and bgd's existence relys entirely on jake.
dirk's casual suicidal tendencies are given a reason every time, and hal doesnt seem bothered to exploit them possibly exposing a shared value they have. "it is ok to die AS LONG as its for the greater good". its tested however when dirk kills himself in game over, as much as he tries to get shit done, he is just a 16 yr old. AND like the other space players, he's been awake on his moon for a while. the dual waking thing prolly wasn't any good for him and exasperated any dissociative symptoms he would have developed by living alone his entire life. so basically, i dont think he's very connected to his body, seeing his brain more of himself rather than the body he inhabits. the lack of physical autonomy in bgd and hal is a round are just different versions of that. body mind soul thing yk.
through a trans lens, i see him as a trans guy who's far removed from his body mentally. this could be from dysphoria, or an intense neutrality from it from disassociation. from a mental health lens, its giving dissociation and osdd. bro's filled to the brim with himself, but is also exhausted from his hyper vigilance in keeping himself in check.
i think the idea of hrt would kinda freak him out in the same way puberty would have freaked him out if he went through a regular one (no way his ass was getting his nutrience). any sudden changes to his body that he wouldnt have done meticulously would have been a big hell no despite his distancing. though it isn't "him", it's his, like how one would see a tool. he's hella anal about that sort of thing.
which makes me think about bgd. interesting fella. i think the way he copes is how he views himself as a tool, like how hal does when he says he's just glasses. he enacts jake's will by fighting aranea "for his honor". bgd is also smitten with jake, being a big loop of dirk and jake's feelings for one another, which also softens the whole thing. its rlly no shocking idea that dirk puts people on crazy high pedestals, so like as long as jake's happy, he's happy. its more complicated than that, but this is a long ass post lol.

Meeks and Pitts Headcanons (except it's me projecting in all of these)
Tumblr media
-> Both of them know how to solve a Rubik's cube and almost always have one around to do something while they're bored. Probably one of them learned it first for whatever reason, then taught the other. And they also like to race to see who solves it first. (and i'm saying this as someone who won't go anywhere without my cube. It's a life style y'know)
-> They're both very geek and nerdy, but Meeks is more of a nerd and Pitts is more of a geek.
-> "Don't worry, I didn't have time to study for this either," they say, but know the whole subject by heart.
-> While Meeks is very sociable, Pitts used to be pretty socially awkward and it took him a while to get genuinely comfortable with all the poets. He is that type of person who's very reserved and quiet, then as soon as he gets used to you he suddenly becomes the most talkative and annoying person in the world.
-> They definitely like boardgames and the rest of this post will be about that, as someone who LOVES boardgames with my whole heart. I know dps takes place before most cool games were invented, but let's just pretend they got to have those in their teenage years. Most of this fandom is constantly pretending stuff didn't happen like canon anyway.
-> Meeks is the type of person who would love games that need tactics and strategy, specially card and deck building games. He would be that type of player that makes the biggest combos (there's always one like that and it is so annoying to everyone else, but he has the time of his life). Like, every single round he manages to do some crazy logical move and win more points than all the others combined.
-> Pitts, on the other hand, likes games with plots, characters, maybe even roleplaying. From more simple games, like Coup to some more complex ones, like Above and Below. And I think he would be more into cooperative games rather than competitive.
-> I particularly think both of them would like space themed boardgames, for some reason I can't explain. Games like Terraforming Mars and Nemesis (I only played this one twice, and each time took like 5 hours, but I swear time FLIES in these games. The other poets would surely complain every time Steven and Gerard decided to play those, because it would take the whole afternoon/night.)
-> Sometimes the other dead poets would agree to play with them. Usually after days of them begging for it. When that happens, they would probably play party games. Those games are faster and easy to learn (there's always someone who struggles to understand the rules, and I think it would be Charlie and Knox, but Charlie would get it as soon as they actually start playing). Games like Exploding Kittens, Cards against Humanity, or even Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza (one of funniest games ever btw).
-> Normal card games (like poker, rummy or canasta) are mostly Meek's thing though and he takes it very seriously, although I don't think he'd go as far as betting money on it.
-> Both of them would love RPGs so much.
-> All of those nerdy things might sound stupid to others, but to them, it's a huge bonding moment and it means a lot when they get the others to engage with their hobbies.
💛.
This post feels SO NICHE, bc it has both my love for these two specific characters but also for boardgames. It was fun though, so it's worth it ^^"

Horror Instance Amity Park
As a fan of some infinite flow horror bl novels and having recently realized the dp fandom, I had the sudden epiphany that a very liminal/dead Amity Park + full Eldritch ghost Danny Sam and Tuck would be a good horror instance
As an explanation: infinite flow horror is basically a "game" of sorts where participants are dropped into horror worlds wherein they must fulfill an objective. That objective is usually survive or find out the mystery behind this world etc
Drop in the giw and Fenton parents that went mad after their son was "killed" by a ghost?
--
The glowing neon green goo should be a comical sight, yet seeing it ooze out of a living teenager's chest as they are strapped down and cut open made it feel more grotesque than the usual crimson blood.
And the teenager who just a few hours ago was bounding about showing them around had eyes that glowed the same green, staring straight at them.
The participants are substitute school teachers after the previous teachers all mysteriously disappeared. Their objective was to find out the sequence of incidents that led the town to become like this.
Someone breaks off from the group to the side and starts dry heaving, having not eaten since the start of this world due to fear of the glowing green food and how it sometimes comes back to life.
The students were all strange, sometimes showing them all inhuman features or abilities. Naturally, they assume these students will slowly kill them off if they don't solve everything soon.
They all tread warily around the students, especially avoiding whoever this Phantom they speak of is assuming him to be the boss of this instance. This all comes to a head when the giw managed to prove a student is ecto contaminated and drags them away to be cut open for examination
Which in turn leads to the scene before them.
They all follow the clues back to the Fenton house, during this time both the giw and Fenton parents start going crazy and dragging anyone who even slightly rings on the ecto radar back to be cut open
Meanwhile Phantom continuously sneaks in and rescues the captives, sometimes too late but most of the time in time. They try working with him but their goals just don't align. At most the dudes a good info source or someone they can trust not to kill them, a support NPC if anything
At this point a few of the participants have also been cut open
Eventually they clear the instance and just never look back. But the thoughts linger
Cuz. In this one, humans had been the villains. The humans had been the ones who were killing everyone and not the ghosts like usual.
Edit: adding
Compared to the inhuman students who could run faster than anyone else, the ghosts who could control plants and technology as well as the monster made of ice and starlight, somehow it is the malice and madness in ordinary human hearts that is the most terrifying

Identity
whumptober24 day 18- loss of identity fandom- dp x dc tw - none summary- Jason isn't still connected with death, he isn't
masterlist ao3 part 5 of MM
Jason didn’t know what to think. He crawled through the window of his favorite safe house, quickly discarding the armor and the helmet. He tried to clear his mind as he showered and changed into comfy clothes. 
He didn’t want to think about Danny and what he’d said. He didn’t want to think about nearly dying again. He refused to think about green, glowy goo.
He needed to focus on hunting down the guys who’d shot him. He’d have to make an appearance soon to make sure people didn’t think Red Hood was dead. He didn't want to think about the chaos that could come from people thinking he was dead.
He was alive. He knew he was alive.
He wasn’t dead. He wasn’t
He closed his eyes for a moment, breathing deeply before going to make himself some tea and ramen. He didn’t feel like cooking right now. He just wanted to curl up on his couch and reread Sense and Sensibility. Books made much more sense than whatever craziness he’d found himself in now.
He’d come back. He didn’t need to think about the possibility of still being slightly dead.
The only side effect was the Lazarus rage, and maybe some enhanced strength. But that didn’t mean that he was still slightly dead. It didn’t. He was alive. He was alive. Hewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehewasalivehe—
The microwave beeped and he pulled out the mug, dropping in a tea bag. He was too tired to make a proper cup of tea today.
What even was he supposed to do with this information? Were there other side effects he should know about? And what was that projecting stuff Danny did? Jason had been able to sense Danny’s thoughts, but it wasn’t like telepathy. It reminded him more of empathy but with some words coming through.
He knew he’d have to go back, get more information. He didn’t want to. He was perfectly content with how he was.
Could Danny help with the Rage?
It didn’t matter. He didn’t need to go back. He’d been perfectly fine before running into Danny, aside from the almost dying again. It didn’t matter. 
And then there was also the fact that Danny looked surprisingly like Tim. 
Ughh. He’d have to look into the siblings, even if it was just to find out if there was some connection. It wouldn’t do to have a Tim clone running around hyped up on Lazarus water.
He’d get to see Jazz again.
Jason didn’t want to learn more about himself. He knew he had to. He just didn’t want… he was alive. He knew he was. What would Bruce say? How was he supposed to react to finding out  he was still somewhat dead? After everything he had gone through, he was still somewhat dead. He wasn’t as alive as he’d thought.
What was he supposed to do?
He was so tired of things always changing. He’s alive and loved by his mother. She’s dead and he’s on the streets. He’s taken in by Bruce. Bruce hates him. The Joker kills him. He’s alive and with the League. He’s free and full of Rage. He’s talking again with the family. Things are better. Now he’s somewhat dead again. What next? Was he going to die again? Was the Rage going to be worse?
He groaned, setting down his tea and dropping his head into his hands.
He needed to talk to them. He had to find out more information. He’d drive himself mad with questions if he didn’t go to them for answers.
He’d have to ask more questions about… liminals. And he’d have to dig for more information on who they were. Were they connected with the League? Were they here to bring him back to Talia? He didn’t think so, but he’d still have to proceed cautiously. He’d need to get some DNA samples, check to see if Danny was a clone.
Nope. 
He wasn’t going to think about this anymore. He was going to finish his tea, read some of his book and go to bed.
Everything else could wait till morning.
