I find the idea that Sam and Tucker are neurodivergent but Danny is neurotypical funny.

“What’s your conditions?”

Sam: I’m inactive-ADHD, ultra-recyclo vegetarian not because of texture reasons but my own beliefs (maybe some texture issues too), and Goth. I’ve got my specific hyperfixations based specifically around things my mom wouldn’t like that I do. This is partly due to my Oppositional Defiant Disorder caused by my ADHD. I’m also chronically dead inside.

Tucker: Auti-HD baby, gotta have that Too Much for Too Fine Tuck, this is my comfort PDA her name is Linda. I coded her specifically for *devolves into hour long info-dump about technology* I also only eat meat as a safe food and refuse anything else.

Sam & Tucker *pointing to Danny*: This is our emotional support neurotypical. He used to have his life together, got good grades, was a little genius, always came to school on time, only had one hobby that wasn’t playing games, and was on the road for a scholarship. He didn’t need meds to function at the time.

Danny: I’m dead now :)

“You mean dead inside? Like depressed?”

Danny: :)

One of my favorite niche Jack Fenton headcanons is that he holds an avid hatred for touchscreens. He finds them annoying to use because they don’t accommodate well to how big his hands are, and he has to take off his gloves whenever he has to use one, which is wildly impractical in his field of work.

He also finds touchscreens in general to be fickle and unreliable. They are the “sickly little dogs” of technology in his eyes. You look at a touchscreen wrong and it shrivels into dust.

Today in Danny Phantom Plot Holes That Make No Sense and They Refused to Explore, we'll be revisiting the fact that Danny and Tucker somehow had no idea Sam was rich until freshman year of high school despite having known her since elementary school at the least.

Because there is just no way Sam "I love my friends unconditionally and support them physically, emotionally and financially" Manson didn't go completely overboard and spoiled her boys rotten whenever their birthdays were coming up, for example.

You cannot tell me Sam hasn't gone out of her way to buy Danny a super expensive and high quality telescope he can stargaze with, or that at least half of his rocket models don't come from her. Or that, in turn, Danny always looks forward to her gifts the most, not because she's the best at making them, but because she just gets him (I love the Fentons to death, but there's no way they haven't tried giving Danny his own hazmat suit for his birthday before). Or that she's never given Tucker the hottest new videogame, or PC system, or PDA, or whatever was the very centre of his technobabble that week, just because the million gigawatt grin he gets every time is enough to melt even her goth-indifferent heart.

You cannot tell me this girl doesn't spend veritable fortunes on her friends, especially when she was younger and she shopped for gifts with her parents, who have no subtlety whatsover when it comes to spending their own money.

Just... Why did they give her such interesting elements to her character, if they were never going to do anything with them???

Headcanon/idea: The logo appearing on Danny's chest (because of Sam) wasn't the only design change that happened to Danny during Memory Blank

Why? Time didn't seem to wind back in the episode, we were still in present time but with Danny and Tucker not knowing Sam. Who knows how much more ectoplasmic radiation Danno soaked up in that time. Or any other explanation that makes more sense

You All NERF Ancient of Space Danny

This is not an exaggeration. Every time I see anything where Danny Phantom is the 'Ancient of Space' (Which I maintain should be 'Master of Space' given that Clockwork's title is 'Master of Time') I see the same things. He has a body that looks like it is made of the night sky or is dotted in galaxies, he can eat/make stars and planets, he has absurd destructive power, et cetra. But that's not 'Space', that is 'Celestial Bodies'.

Space is more than just planets and stars; it is DISTANCE and DIRECTION and DENSITY and more!

A Danny Phantom who is the Ancient of Space should be able to do more than just throw around energy blasts or look cool. He should be able to pull of Gojo-type shit and more! Compressing matter, altering the distance something has to travel, distorting the placement of things and energy, warping the path something travels and yet having it still act as if it is moving in a straight line!

You could shoot Danny with a laser and it would look like it is standing still because he warped space so that a centimeter is a billion light-years. Danny could take a step forward and travel a thousand miles. Flicking his finger to his side could result in you feeling the impact from the opposite direction upside your head. He could look up at the sky and see EVERYTHING that is happening on the planet/in the galaxy/across the universe AT ONCE if he wanted to!

Being the Ancient of Space means he commands and manipulates SPACE ITSELF, not just large celestial objects!

Stop making Ancient of Space Danny just a sparkly shadow creature who can punch stuff really hard! Make him the fucking GOD that the fandom has made the title of Ancient equivalent to!

The Children’s Perspective

They called him a monster. A butcher. A killer.

But to the children who whispered his name in the dark, he was something else.

He was the one who pulled them from cages and chains. The one who wrapped them in starlight and promised they’d never see the faces of their captors again. The one who listened when no one else would.

To the League, he was the Child Killer. To the children, he was the one who killed for the children.

And if he had to carry that title, so be it.

They’d keep his secret. Because he was theirs. Read more

Y'all who love depicting Ghost King Danny as an eldritch being in DPxDC crossovers, i have a plothole to offer to you, and then my favorite pastime - the solution making the plothole look like an intentional part of the interior design

The plothole: why are y'all making 'eldritch being' part of a Ghost King's attributes when Pariah Dark never showed anything like it at any point of time????

The solution: lmao y'all i present to you the Thor Ragnarok headcanon, in which the Crown and Ring and Ghost King status don't actually make anyone eldritch, they just make it easier to focus what's already there

So basically

Danny: but i don't have the crown and ring anymore how can i beat them i'd have to like. go full eldritch horror for that

Clockwork: and you can, now that you have done it enough times with assistance. the king accessories only draw out what is already there, make it easier to acess, but the core of it is you. you can do this danny :)

Danny:

Danny: I WAS AN ELDRITCH HORROR FROM THE START????

CW: *cocks gun* always have been ...what do you think happens when a 100% complete undamaged child soul goes out and then supernova in an explosion of ectoplasm? You're the equivalent of a black hole Danny, of course you're a primordial being

Danny:
