Danny phantom crossovers really need to embrace the fenton parent's chaotic energy more. Like, I understand why they are often written out of crossover fics and I don't begrudge the authors that. bUT the ficosphere is really missing out on the absolute comedic potential wrapped up in those mad scientists. Especially when you consider the version of Jack and Maddie who know about phantom and unconditionally support their son's efforts.
Like, these guys have very skewed ethics and regard for the law. They are constantly armed to an incredible degree and are not afraid to shoot first. They are obnoxiously supportive of their children with megaphones and foam fingers. Their sense of normality and social convention is shot- if it ever existed at all. They are geniuses and can build nearly anything out of anything and would probably be rolling in dough and world renowned if they weren't laser-focused on their area of interest.
So now imagine, if you will, Jim Gordon having to deal with these guys and their particular brand of eccentric. Is their help and expertise worth putting up with them (unfortunately yes). Or even the Joker? Maddie would 100% pull out the creep stick on that guy.
Aizawa or nezu having to deal with the American exchange student's parents randomly popping in? You know they are wanted by the police.
The migraines alone would be so fun.
Anyways, the fenton parents are human steamrollers that I would love to see utilized in more crossovers.
