This was a joy to write. It was so fun to put on my detective hat and figure out what sort of fanfiction makes you tick. I managed to combine three of your prompts, though I apologize that I didn't quite fit in the romantic Pitch Pearl. I hope the Oreo Cookie vibes suffice!
Also, I am now acutely aware that Dora is criminally under-represented in the TV series. She deserves all the fanfiction she can get.
The fic got away from me (whoops), so expect 7-9 more chapters over the next few months!
And thank you to @lexosaurus for the last-minute beta!

Synopsis: After the Accident, Danny wakes up in the Ghost Zone with no pulse. With nowhere else to go, he spends his days at Castle Aragon with Princess Dorathea, learning how to cope with his new "life" as a ghost. However, whenever he closes his eyes, he sees visions of himself alive and recovering from the Accident in the hospital. And, as the days pass, it becomes clear that the Danny behind his eyelids is dreaming about him too.

And then the Portal explodes.
Danny is flying; where, he doesn't know. But all around him is searing blue-green light that he can't shut out because his eyes are welded open, and his skin is boiling, and his innards are seizing, and he's screaming, and this supposedly-nonoperational hole in the wall is sending him somewhere, beyond the walls of the lab, beyond sense, beyond reality.
The atmosphere changes. Though the light is still blinding, he can make out a vast nothingness beyond it, stretching on without end, which has been sandwiched between two great somethings. He isn't sure how else to describe it, but it's like he's hurtling over a valley of nonexistence, and behind him is one reality and ahead is another.
That's ridiculous, of course. Yet he knows in his heart of heart that it's true. And reality is coming at him fast.
He braces for impact—
And then the light is punching him through the wall, and he's sailing through air at incredible speed. He has a brief impression of green and existence before he crash-lands onto some surface and knows no more.

I posted a while ago that it would be cool if Plant Sam had Kelpies, and then I saw this art! I believe Plant Sam could have different variations of Kelpies, not just horses.
I MEAN LOOK AT THEM!!! it would be so BADASS to see Plant Sam with them!!!

Og Kelpies post:
I'm curious... what would PlantSam name her kelpie? What powers would the kelpies have? What kind of personality would PlantSam's kelpie hav
One thing that always struck me about the stories where Danny turns out to be an actually for real ghost all along is that we have somewhere a body could have been misplaced for Danny, the alcove where the on button was. But what about Vlad or Dani? I have no idea for the little clone, but for Vlad it’s super obvious.
There is only one place his corpse could have ended up. He would have to be carrying it around in ignorance for decades! Now you can go super dark and icky with that, but I personally like the notion A) it has long since become a skeleton & B) He’s rather found of his bones, he likes them, keeps them in their proper place, save for when he phases them out of his form and show them to people whenever it amuses him, because they’re awesome and if they freak that’s there problem (also trolling).
Course if anyone ever actually adopts my headcannon on 15 odd yr old au feel free to go dark or whatever feels good to you.
I don't know why, but I feel like Plant Sam should have a fun obsession with pumpkins!
The reason I think this is that whenever we encounter plant-themed characters, the common choices are usually roses and/or Venus flytraps (no hate; I love them!).
Imagine Plant Sam throwing Jack O' Lantern bombs! How cool would that be?
Another idea: I envision Plant Sam as being bougie! Since she can’t fly, I can picture her riding in a pumpkin carriage. That’s how I imagine her traveling throughout the Ghost Zone.
Also! According to the DP wiki, the Fright Knight is the Ghost King's minion and second-in-command. I thought, why shouldn’t Sam have a loyal knight of her own? Fortunately, there’s a perfect spirit for her!
