Rewrite idea
Considering how Danny became a ghost, I can imagine he'd have developed a bit of electrophobia(fear of electricity)⚡️
TW Flash, mentions of trauma, panic attack and seizures.
He was ELECTROCUTED and good chance probably saw his own life flash before his eyes and ended up half dead and experienced ALL that as a 14 YR OLD! Its safe to assume the boy's got some trauma from that.
I can imagine the experience made him far more wary of things with electricity, not to the point that he's afraid of using electronics or other things with electrify but far more careful, like staying away from exposed wires, would avoid adding too many plugs into an outlet, getting outlet covers, wouldn't go into the Lab alone and if he did wouldn't be in there too long, etc. He could've even developed a fear of thunderstorms due to fearing he could get struck by lightning⛈️ ⚡️
I can imagine he'd also be shaken from things like bright flashing lights, similar to the flash he saw from the accident. Could even end up having things like panic attacks or even seizures due to the incident.
I can imagine villains like Technus and Vortex would be the biggest for him to handle as their powers could trigger his trauma far more than the other ghosts, Technology/electricity, weather/storms. A lot of ghost attacks look like shocks, I can imagine that could shake him up.
People who've been electrocuted can end up with all sorts of long term physical and mental damage and while I can imagine Danny becoming a ghost ended up lessening the damage he'd normally experience as a human(good chance it saved him from becoming a full ghost) I can imagine damage was still done to him, in ways he might not even realize himself. I think it'd be an interesting thing to dicuss and try to tackle if DP ever came back.
What do u think? Do you think Danny could have trauma from becoming Phantom? I'd love to know💖
my another own take on danny phantom (I might changing some stuffs from my previous post)
finally some my canon stuffs
Does anyone have/know of any AO3 fics where it's Danny interacting with either the justice league or the batfam ect. and he's super casual and open about being a dead kid and they're just horrified/sad that this is a dead child.
Like I imagine he's excited to talk about his powers with other super's and he's talking about his ghostly wail:
Danny: "and I have this really cool scream power, I call it my ghostly wail. None of the other ghosts have it, I think it's cuz I died screaming but idk. 🤷♂️
Everyone else: horrified silence 😰
Danny: "Oh yeah, my parents don't know about me being dead either, like they see me as phantom practically every day and yet they still don't know It's me HA! I guess they're too busy shooting me to recognize me. It's been years of just. "Let's destroy that ecto-scum!" "No jack, let's capture it so we can study it!" "You're right honeybun, let's rip it apart molecule by molecule!" Dude you would not believe how funny it is watching them run around like headless chickens when I'm invisible haha!"😂
Everyone else: horrified silence again 😰
Danny:"Oh yeah I never got a grave. My parents still haven't noticed I'm dead yet. Which is weird cuz I died at home in our basement like TWO YEARS AGO. They turned it into a lab and they built this machine buuut they thought it didn’t work. *says the rest like it's a funny story* but they-haha-they put the on and off button!-snort- they put it on the inside so-ha- so when I went in and I tripped? I-giggle- I fell right on it!! And it-it flooded my body with soooo much electricity that IT KILLED ME!! So now I have super powers! hahaha like isn't that crazy? Ha I'd like to see you guys have a better origin story. Whew *wipes tears of laughter *
Everyone else: horrified silence again 😰
Someone *Sadly*: "How-how old were you? When... you died?"
Danny *swinging his feet and humming a cheery tune*: Oh it was on my 14th birthday. My friends came over celebrate with me and they were gonna take a picture of me in the machine but then I accidentally turned it on. And POW! Dead.
Everyone else: horrified silence once again 😰
One of my favourite ideas to poke at is a reverse Nobody Knows AU
As in Everybody but Danny knows that Phantom is Fenton because Danny died all the way and came back as a normal ghost.
Has no clue who he was. Still acts the same, still protects people, thinks bullies and assholes are losers and tries to save the day with the least property damage and civilian injury possible, but has no clue why people get so sad around him. He just assumes he has an aura he doesn't notice.
He spends some the little downtime he has not fighting other ghosts haunting the school when it's empty and hanging out invisibly in the sky when it's not. He hangs out a lot in the observatory and breaks into the Fenton's basement often. Usually just poking around and never actively malicious. He has no clue how he feels like he knows how their stuff works, but he does.
The Fentons themselves are actually pretty nice to him. He thanks them every now and again for shooting at the other guys but not him (even though their aim sucks). To him, they're Ms. Maddie and Mr. Jack. They never had the heart to tell him anything else.
I kinda get why nick wouldn't want him to be dead but the concept of danny actually half died really fascinates me, so much story potential there, this idea has been running in my for a while now
my main idea is that Danny didn't know that he was actually dead, he just believes that the portal just gave him ghost powers, and his physical body being weak and gets cold easily is just a side effect to it
slowly he'll realize that his actually dead and his physical body is just slowly deteriorating (kinda morbid lol)
danny is actually half dead, but he won't last long
