Artificial Amity
Okay but what if Amity park is an artificial town.
What I mean by that is what if in like the 50s it was a science experiment to see what happens if you put a bunch of people from a bunch of different places together. (its so diverse for a small town in the mid west. also it's called *Amity* Park.)
Most the people there or at least most who stayed are the kind of people who would up root their lives for science as such it is a very smart community, a community quite literally based in science.
After the first generation of kids is born the organisers of the experiment were asked if they tell the children what this town was made for or not.
They did not.
I’m thinking Danny’s gen is 3 or 4. the Fenton’s were outsiders who moved in because this small town just happened to be possiblly the most ecto dense place in all of America.
They were straight out of collage, they didn’t care about all the papers they were made to sign to stay there. They have ghosts to hunt after all.
When the GIW get to Amity Park because of all the ghost attacks and are met with far more red tape than they thought they would. They are able to operate there and deal with the ghosts however they see fit, however certain buildings are under certain protections and they are not to disturb the people of Amity, they are not allowed to purposely sew seeds of doubt and distrust in the community.
The GIW know Danny Fenton is somehow tied to Phantom, likely working closely with him, giving the ghost all his tech and teaching him how to dismantle theirs. But they can never get to him let alone question him because he keeps enacting all these stupid rules for the experiment!
Danny knows nothing and is just living his life but he’s glad the GIW at least stays away from the school and the library.
