Even though I wasn’t originally going to, since the final season of The Owl House has released, I’ve decided to rewrite the majority of what has happened so far. The ending of the show was actually a really good place to add in the characters so I’m going to do that instead. If you want to see the old posts, they’ll still all be <here>, but they won’t really be part of it anymore.
Now, the idea is that all of the characters have grown up, and they are closer to the ages they would be after their show ended, if that makes sense. For example, since Dipper and Mabel were 13 in 2016 when their show ended, they would be 20 in this story.
Basically, after they defeat Belos and take back the Isles, Luz made the portal to travel between the realms with King’s and the Collector’s help, but they ended up making a few other portals while working to build the right one. While Luz & co. knew about most of the portals, others opened without their knowledge, or were made on Earth and not the Isles.
If you want to look at the old stuff, it's all still here under the tag "pre-finale content", but expect updated bio sheets and stories at some point.
Summary: The twins seek some friendly ghost help and- wait, they do succeed?!
- - -
“Everything is in place, is the camera ready?” Dipper asked as he stood next to the ritual circle.
“Ready to film some spooks! Boo-oo!” Mabel answered while waving said camera, causing the image on the screen to shake.
“Mabel, stop!” The feed was cut for a moment where only static was shown, and a second later it was Dipper again, brows furrowed in a frown. “As I was saying,” he continued curtly, “now that everything is ready, we can finally start the summoning of the Spirit of Protection!” He approached the camera and showed the Third Journal, flipping a page back and forth to show everything written in it. “The Journal says that outside the ten types of spirits the author first faced he found The Book of Summonings! We, uh, we couldn’t really find the book referenced in the Gravity Falls Library, but the Author made sure to copy the summoning ritual for the Spirit of Protection!”
“And how do we know this isn’t another demon who will backstab us the moment it gets what it wants?” Mabel bellowed off-camera.
“Because…” Dipper dragged the answer just like they had rehearsed it, “we looked for more sources besides that book!” He put aside the Journal and showed the new pictures on his camera roll, of him, Mabel, Wendy and Soos hiking the Gravity Falls hills, taking in the sights, doing funny poses, unearthing the secrets hidden within the dark, never-ending cave… unsupervised unrestrained summer fun, as usual.
Dipper continued, “We found this cave with all these wall paintings! I tried to take pictures of them, but all of them came out blank. It must be some sort of protection system, or- or you can only access that knowledge if you climb there, and anyone else isn’t worthy and-”
“And we’re lucky you’re a nerd with a good memory who memorized it on the spot!” Mabel complimented him teasingly.
“What we could understand spoke of a kind, benevolent being who protects people in need, that matches the Author’s description of the Spirit of Protection he got from The Book of Summonnings, and considering how we had to face Bill in our Grunkle’s mind… we could use all the help possible, you know?”
“I know! Now less talking, more chanting!” Mabel demanded.
“Ok, ok, I’ll do it!” Dipper complied, but couldn’t hide the excitement in his voice.
Dipper moved behind the circle, and Mabel approached, better capturing the intricate symbols drawn on crayons –Mabel had used their chalk that morning for some Mabel juice– in the centre was a stylized D, surrounded by a circle pointing at the four cardinal points: north being a Venus flytrap, south what looked suspiciously like part of a circuits’ board, east was a red-tinted and angry-looking skull, and west was a green flam; each symbol was encapsulated in a circle of their own. It was simpler than expected, but Dipper had followed the journal’s instructions.
Lowly, Dipper could be heard mumbling “This doesn’t sound like normal Latin but here goes nothing…
“Reĝo de fantomoj,
guidanto de la mortintoj,
terura malamiko,
valorega aliancano.
Mi estas en granda dangero
kaj tial mi alvocas vin.
Bonvolu helpi mi.”
The wood boards creaked, starting from the ceiling and running through the four walls and under their socked feet, until it reached the summoning circle.
Along its way, as the wave passed the sparse candles littered on the room, their flames flickered and turned green, and when it finally reached the Circle, a bright white light emanated from within it in a blinding ring, making the twins cover their eyes and step back.
“My eyes!”
“Why is it so bright?!”
“I can’t see any-! Hey! Bright colorful figures!”
“Mabel, focus!
“Oh, you gotta be kidding me.”
- - -
Danny looked down at the kids as they rubbed their eyes and tried to regain their sight, stumbling about on what clearly was their bedroom.
“What’s there? Who is it?!” The boy said, trying to open his eyes without pain.
Danny vanished his more outstanding regalia sending his crown and ring back to his pocket dimension. He kept his fur-lined cape, however, because he had learnt how to make the inside of it reflect the Amity Park starry night sky. In his opinion, he really rocked it.
The first one to recover was the little girl (because, unknown to Danny, she was better adapted to bright neon colours blinding her eyes.)
She gasped, squeezing her cheeks in her hands with an almost drooling smile. “Hot boy!”
“What? Mabel, this isn’t time for- oh, you’re right. I mean!” Dipper squeaked, cheeks red and hands suddenly sweaty. “I mean, who are you?”
“I don’t know, kid. You tell me. Who did you mean to summon?” Danny said out loud, wondering how had he managed to do that. Ancients, every time he thought he had gotten rid of these How To Summon instructions, someone else found a way to get a hold of him. It was becoming so annoying.
“You are the Spirit of Protection? But- you’re just a teenager!”
Spirit of Protection? That was a new one, and at least that meant these kids weren’t trying to summon the Ghost King, that wasn’t as bad. Still, though…
“I was a teenager when I died which was a long time ago, you know?” Eight years was a lot of time, actually.
Both kids flinched and looked at him with wide, sad eyes and Danny had to hold back a groan.
It’s a good things kids are not used to other kids dying. He had to remind himself. Even if it’s annoying when they give you The Eyes.
“Never mind that though. What do you think you’re doing summoning spirits willy-nilly in the middle of the night with no adult supervision?” So what if he sounded like his parents? He was right!
That changed their mood quickly, from sad and pitiful to chastised and yet unrepentant.
“Well, you see, mister, er, ghost… my sister and I are visiting Gravity Falls for the summer, and this place is really weird and cool! But there are also all these dangerous things like zombies, and gremnomes, and Bill Cipher!
“He’s a dream demon that’s been tormenting us this summer!”
“Dream Demon? Do you mean a Nightmare?” Danny asked.
“Uh, no? Well he is a nightmare to deal with but he has called himself a dream demon, because he invades people’s dreams and stuff.”
The Spirit of Protection’s frown deepened. “Demons can’t do that anymore the Lord of Dreams banned them from his domain years ago.”
“I don’t think Bill got the memo, then, or cared about it.”
Danny mumbles, “That’s not good.” He looked at the twins, who were hiding their yawns and blinking away their tiredness. Yeah, he couldn’t just leave them like that. “Look, dreams and demons are not my domain so I will need some more info before I can set anything up, alright?”
“Isn’t your domain Protection, though?” Asked Mabel. “Can’t ya just ‘poof!’, make a magic shield around the Mystery Shack?”
“Nah, Protection is my Obsession, but you didn’t summon the Spirit of Protection… at least, I haven’t been given that title yet.” He finished with a worried grimace. He’d talk to Frostbite and Clockwork about it.
“Wha- but then, who are you?”
Danny let his Crown and Ring return in a flare of green fire and drama.
“I am the Ghost King.” He declared.
But rather than the awe or fear that would have amused the young King, Mabel squealed in delight and Dipper spluttered in disbelief(? That didn’t sound like indignation to Danny, anyway).
“Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!”
“What? That can’t be! The journal said-”
“Do you have a pony? Do you have a castle? Have you seen a unicorn?!”
“-of Protection! It doesn’t say anything about a King-”
“Wait, is the unicorn dead?! Can you bring it back?!”
“-the difference between a Spirit and a ghost, anyway?”
“But if the unicorn is already dead then it won’t ever, ever die again! Okay, then, hand it over!”
Flicking both middle fingers in a gesture that would remind one of Spider-Man, Danny covered the twins’ mouths with ectoplasm gags that would dissolve soon with no damage done, effectively shutting them up at once long enough for him to speak.
“One at a time, alright? Okay, first off, yes, I have a castle, no, I don’t have a pony, yes, I have seen a unicorn: it’s not mine and it’s an asshole, so you won’t be getting it.” There was a muffled, disappointed sound. “Second, everything has a spirit, but only the dead can be ghosts (unless you’re speaking metaphorically, of course, then anything is possible), it’s like, all ghosts are spirits, but not all spirits are ghosts, and even then, sometimes the lines get blurry.
“And finally, I am the Ghost King and you called me here so either you got your ritual mixed up, or something is up to someone.” The ghost explained.
“Don’t you mean-” Dipper started, watching as the ectoplasm that had been covering his mouth disappeared in wisps of smoke.
“I said what I said.”
“Uh, okay then, mister- sir- your Highness-” Dipper stuttered.
“Phantom.”
“Mister sir your highness Phantom!” Mabel said cheerily, making the ghost sigh.
“Just Phantom.”
“Okay, Phantom, the Author said it was a ritual to summon the Spirit of Protection and usually if he makes a mistake he corrects the information- oh.”
That ‘oh’ turned out to be Dipper flipping the ritual’s leaf back and forth, and separating them in two, revealing two other pages with symbols and writing.
What Danny could see from his position were big, green letters that read HOW TO SUMMON THE GHOST KING.
“You were saying?” Phantom said in a deadpan.
“Ugh, what is it with the Author starting a new page mid-sentence?”
“Don’t you worry about that, I’ll be taking these”
Before Dipper could react, Phantom had taken the Journal and torn out the pages about summoning him.
“What are you doing?! No!”
“Hey, that’s mean! Don’t do that!”
Danny ignored them and went intangible when the kids tried to swipe at him to get the book back.
“Hm, yeah, I’ll have to talk to Clockwork about this, whoever is giving away these titles is being far too generous. Or a real jerk.” He flipped a few pages, ignoring the protesting pre-teens. “Hey, this is actually accurate. Nice find, kid. I’ve seen a few of these too… well, their ghosts, but that counts for something, right? Although I think I can help ya with the ghost types, if you kids are facing guys like these on the regular you need to be prepared.”
“Wait, that means you’re not taking the Journal away?” Dipper asked hopefully.
“Nah, just the stuff about me. I don’t like people having the means to summon me and try to bind me to their whims.” He flipped some more pages until he found a blank one, took Dipper’s blue ball pen from his nightstand and scribbled on it. “That gives me, y’know, a choice in whether I come or not.”
“I- that’s-! Thank you, Phantom! And sorry, for the summoning, didn’t mean to bother you…”
“Don’t worry, kid.” Phantom breathed in deeply (just for emphasis, since he didn’t need to), and said, “Alright, you two, time to go to sleep. No! Don’t fight me on this, you won’t win. I will come back tomorrow, around ten in the morning, I gotta check out on this Cipher guy with some friends of mine, I need more info. But don’t worry,” and the next thing he said was with a heaviness of absolute truth that left no doubt in the twins’ minds about his Royal status, “no one will bother you tonight.”

Okay, translation from Esperanto of the summoning chanting:
King of ghosts,
leader of the dead,
terrible enemy,
invaluable ally.
I am in great danger
and therefore I summon you.
Please help me.
That's what Dipper ended up saying, but since I didn't show it, I gotta tell ya, this was the Spirit of Protection's own "chanting":
Spirit of protection, defender of the defenseless,
I speak to you and I ask you to come to my call.
I am in great danger
and that is why I call on you.
Please help me.
And the Ghost King (Pariah, at the moment Ford wrote the journal) was this:
King of ghosts, leader of the dead
Terrible enemy, invaluable ally.
I demand your hearing and to my will I bind you.
Carry out my mandates without repercussions
May my adversaries suffer your curses!
which was quite an effective way to have him do your bidding. Good luck Ford had bad writing habits! Since they didn't say the part of the binding, it couldn't tie Danny to anything. They only spoke of a protective ghost king, and the summoning brought them exactly that, so it doesn't matter if the title of Spirit of Protection is or isn't actually Danny's, he's a protective spirit; so they got to the perfect answer with a Frankenstein of an equation.
This one I had a lot of fun writing! I feel like I should've put some more action since last chapter actually showed the restult of Danny's interference, but I liked the banther of this. I'm more of an "interactions" writer, tbh. I once did a crossover with Lucifer (TV) just to see how Danny and him would interact. This is a warning for future chapters, btw.

Mabel: Hey, Dipper. Have you gotten to talk to that ghost kid yet?
Dipper: Danny? No, he-
Danny: *appears through a portal*
Danny: Did someone say Danny?
Mabel: Woah!
Dipper: What the heck, man?
Mabel: Are you summoned by someone saying your name?
Dipper: Or are you just a creep that listens for someone to say your name so you can show up unannounced?
Danny: Ha. You guys are funny. My summoning spell is much more complicated than that, and I only listen for the people I like to say my name.
Mabel: So can you hear everything everywhere?
Dipper: Mabel, now is not the time!
Danny: Kind of? Well, if I'm not needed, Danny Away!
Danny: *jumps backwards through a portal*
Mabel: Did he just make a reference to...
Dipper: Quentin Trembley the Third?
Mabel: DANNY!
Danny: *doesn't show up*
Mabel: Maybe he's like Betelgeuse.
Dipper: What?
Mabel: You have to say his name three times, like this. Danny! Danny! Danny!
Dipper: Mabel! Yelling Danny's name isn't-
Danny: *shows up in a portal*
Danny: You called?
Mabel: See? I told you it was the Betelgeuse one!
Danny: Wait why is B-man in this conversation? And did you need something this time?
Mabel: Right! Do you know Quentin Trembley the Third?
Dipper: He was the 8 1/2 President of the United States and would leave by jumping onto a horse backwards and yelling "Trembley Away!"?
Danny: Oh, that's where I got that! Yeah, I know him.
Mabel: Really? Can we see him?
Dipper: He gave me a President's key, which I should really try in the Boiling Isles.
Danny: Sure! I know where his lair is if you want to go for a ride through the Ghost Zone.
Dipper: Wait, the Ghost Zone? Isn't that place super dangerous and-
Mabel: What my brother means to say is we would love to go through one of your portals into the Ghost heZone to see an old friend again who- wait. If he's in the Ghost Zone, does that mean he's a ghost?
Danny: Honestly? I really don't know much about that guy other than the fact that he hasn't fought me yet, so I count that as us being on the same side.
Dipper: You fight ghosts? Even though you're a ghost?
Danny: In a way. I'm part human, too, you know.
Mabel: Really? How'd you get your powers if you're not dead?
Danny: I am.
Mabel: Oh. Was it painful? Do you remember it?
Dipper: Mabel, don't you feel like this is a little rude, or at the very least intrusive?
Mabel: Right, right. Sorry.
Danny: No, it's okay. I died turning on a ghost portal my parents built and I don't really remember how it felt because I also was somehow partially resurrected at the same time.
Mabel: Woah. That's brutal.
Danny: Thanks for reminding me.
Dipper: You can get back to whatever ghostly things you were up to, Mabel and I need to get back to our Uncle's. They'll be opening the portal soon.
Danny: What if I take you back and we stop by Quentin's on the way.
Mabel: You'd do that?
Danny: Of course, consider me your older friend that can drive when you can't. I'm just driving you home from school, but through a portal, and as a ghost.
Dipper: I can drive...
Mabel: Thanks, Danny! Dipper, come on!

Dipper: What? You just got lucky.
Mabel: Really?
Dipper: Really.
Mabel: Keep practicing those basic glyphs and I'll show you a cool combo I came up with.
Dipper: Come on, I'll keep working on them, just show me how to do a combo. I'm ready!
Mabel: If you say so...
Mabel: *spends a solid two minutes drawing a giant glyph combo in the yard outside*
Dipper: You done yet?
Mabel: Yup! Just one... more... There! Would you like to do the honors?
Dipper: If you insist.
Dipper: *gets up and steps on the edge of the glyph combo*
*ice shoots up, almost as tall as the trees, twisting and slowly beginning to take shape*
Dipper: You didn't.
Mabel: Didn't what?
Dipper: Of all the people to make an ice sculpture of- you couldn't have picked that wild clone boy band? Not even Xyler and Craz?
Mabel: No, you wouldn't be as motivated to burn them down.
Dipper: Just you wait...
Dipper: *spends almost an hour trying to draw a working fire glyph big enough to destroy the statue*
Mabel: *admiring her perfect ice sculpture replica of Dippy Fresh, in the flesh*
Dipper: Habe a taste of... this!
Dipper: *activates a functioning fireball glyph at the statue*
Mabel: See? I knew you could do it with the right motivation!
Dipper: That felt so good.

I really just wanted to play with a monochrome drawing and do some character sketches. They weren’t supposed to be in the same project but it’s fine…
Concept: What if humans could semi-transform into an abomination, like Darius?
The idea is, with the right glyph combo tattoo, a human (or even a witch, if they really wanted to) could use their own energy mixed with the titan’s blood to modify their body structure. It would probably work best if the tattoo ink was titan’s blood, but being in the Boiling Isles should be a half decent substitute. While this would definitely work with abominations, someone could definitely make a plant or ice exoskeleton or even an invisibility or feather fall combo. The possibilities are really endless.
In terms of visuals, the tattoos would show up all the time, and glow when in use. For an invisibility combo they would probably also turn invisible, it would just be in the focus of the caster. Maybe adding a combination of a light glyph with a fire and ice glyph attached to make water to put out the light would be used for more inconspicuous spells. Heck, an abomination combo could be easily modified into a shapeshifting one, either for the whole body or just for the face.
Definitely more to come on this because the more I wrote about this idea the more ideas I got.
By the way, this was supposed to be about the lovely Ms. Khan, so I should probably explain that too. Per her backstory (here), Kamala made her own glyph tattoos on her wrists and ankles so she could have abomination arm and leg extensions. I made a glyph combo for abominations from scratch while designing her because I couldn’t find them on the Owl House wiki and the first page of Google Image search didn’t help either, so it could be good it could be bad, who knows?

Bump: Yes, Kipo?
Kipo: It's that time of month, so I won't be here for the next few days.
Bump: Of course, I'll be sure to let your teachers know.

Kipo: *leaves Bump's office*
Luz: Hey! Didn't mean to eavesdrop, but if you need heating pads, I've found a really helpful glyph-
Kipo: What?
Luz: For...cramps?
Kipo: I don't get- Ohhhhhhhh. Ahahaha. Sorry, I don't mean to laugh. It's not that time.
Luz: Oh, sorry. Wait, what did you mean, then? If you don't mind me asking.
Kipo: No problem at all! I appreciate the offer, I'll have to ask for that another time.
Kipo: *points to her ears and tail*
Kipo: See these?
Luz: Yeah! You're a furry, right?
Kipo: *laughs very hard. for a long time.*
Kipo: No, no. I'm a werewolf. But not in the traditional way.
Luz: It's kind of starting to make sense? Tell me more.
Kipo: Okay, well, my "werewolf-y-ness" changes with the phases of the moon.
Luz: Ooh! So when there's more moon, there's more wolf!
Kipo: Something like that. The thing is, once the moon is actually full, I become full beast and I can't take care of myself.
Luz: What do you do then? Please don't tell me you lock yourself in a basement, that's unacceptable.
Kipo: Lock myself in a basement? That's horrible and I would never do that to myself. I usually go over to Luna's and she takes care of me until I can function again.
Luz: So that's why you're over there! But, just the other day, you turned into a mega beast to win the Grudgby match. You seemed to be able to control yourself just fine. How is that different?
Kipo: Yeah. When I do that, it takes a lot more energy, focus, and it does help if the moon is darker. Plus, I get really big when I focus on it.
Luz: So, why don't you tell anyone this?
Kipo: No one really asks, so I don't really tell. Besides, what's the fun in everyone knowing everything about you?
Luz: Eh, it's not that bad.
Kipo: Duh. You're remembered as the "human savior of the Boiling Isles", I'm probably just known as the resident furry.
Luz: No one here knows what a furry is, though.
King: *yelling from inside Luz's backpack*
King: I know what a furry is! This is a good story, but not good enough to hide from the fact that you definitely are one!
Luz: King! Sorry, I try to limit his internet, but it's nearly impossible. Kids, amiright?
Kipo: Hah. Yeah. The only other people that could think I'm a furry are the other HEXkids.
Luz: But there aren't that many of them.
Kipo: Not many, but still the only ones that I really interact with.
Luz: Why don't you join the werewolf club? They're not all were-"wolves" but they do seem pretty chill.
Kipo: There's a werewolf club? You guys need a club list or something, I thought there were only the Azura Book Club and the HAS.
Luz: Yeah, that makes sense. We tried to make a club list last year, but the gelatinous goo club was left off and they trashed Bump's office because of it.
Kipo: Remind me never to mess with them.
Luz: I got you.
Kipo: I'm so sorry, but I really need to go now. The sun is setting and it's the first night of the full moon. Luna's making roasted kelp for dinner!

Ash: Look at that, Pikachu! This Gengar can talk, just like Meowth! It'll be great to add to the team!
Pikachu: Chu...
Ash: I know because I know and I'm always right! Pikachu, use quick attack!
Pikachu: *uses quick attack and goes right through Danny*
Danny: I'm assuming you're not a witch either, then. Right?
Ash: It's trying to trick us! Pikachu, use shockwave!
Pikachu: *uses shockwave*
Danny: *actually gets hit this time and transforms back into an unconscious human*
Ash: Hurry, while it's weak! Pokéball, go!
Ash: *throws a Pokéball at Danny which bounces off and leaves a bruise on Danny's arm*
Ash: Wow, Pikachu! Looks like it doesn't want to be caught. Silly of you to fight it, but at least we learned to respect boundaries today. Let's go home.
Ash and Pikachu: *walk into the sunset with the Pokémon rap playing in the background*
~20 minutes later~
Danny: *wakes up*
