A commission done for me by @prof-peach months ago; it's slightly outdated by this point (my retelling/reboot AU "Half-a-Phantom" is ever-changing, it seems...) but for the most part this shit is PERFECT for now.

Danny and Dark Future Phantom ("DFP" for short -- my AU's name for Dark Dan) fused together when Danny was 18 (Danny by himself had become the new Ghost King just a year prior) in order to avoid DFP destabilizing out of existence; there is no Vladdy's ghost half in this equation, there never was in my version. When DFP separated himself and his human self, he just killed him and then ran away, nothing else.

Here, Danny-DFP (how I refer to him post-fusion in my notes) is known as 30yo in human form, but mentally he is far older due to DFP's memories tacked onto Danny's. You can't tell anymore because of his beard, but his face has "seams" (like lines) in it starting from the edges of his mouth and ending at his ears; he can open his mouth incredibly wide. It's both a hunting (I feature the Ghost Hunger trope in this AU. He also has obligate carnivorous teeth as a ghost, doesn't chew anything) and an adaptation for his Ghostly Wail ("sonic scream/roar") ability.

His eyes turn red when the DFP part of his mind is triggered enough.

The Crown and Ring transform into a different appearance for each Ghost Ruler. For Danny, they're an aurora borealis and plain ice, respectively.

He's also 7-feet tall and built like a brick shithouse (has both fat and muscle), you're welcome. His human Fenton form is a transman, thin as a rail and 5'05". You're welcome again! Anyway, Danny has always subconsciously wanted to resemble his father more, so that's why his ghost form does just that (Jack himself is 6'06"). Both forms have the exact same freckles pattern (but you don't have to draw them the same each time, that'd be a pain in the ass).

I had to downsize the image just to post it...

Undecided if I want 32yo Jazz to have long hair or shorter.

30yo Valerie I deffo want to have buzzed hair like in TUE.

My 30yo Danny has long been fused with Dark Dan by this point.
