Is there any good fenton parents Au you recommend? And if none why? I'm always curious about how fan twist canon.

Can’t think of many off the top of my head. There’s one I remember where Danny, Jazz, Sam, and Tucker end up as halfas in the portal accident and Jack and Maddie try to help them understand their new biology while trying to rebuild the portal after it was destroyed with Danny on the other side.

Another one I can think of off the top of my head is this three part fanfiction where Jazz, Maddie, and Jack become halfas. Maddie through a wish with Desiree, leaving her to be taught by Danny. Jazz and Jack become halfas after going to a convention and getting struck by a GiW portal experiment gone wrong. The last fic is just them reconvening and learning wha happened to all of them.

Other than that I can’t think of anything right now.

I have a couple of variations of Vlad's half-ghost state that I play with from time to time.

What's funny is that Ellie and Danny are almost always the same.

Option 1: Vlad 60% human, 40% ghost Danny 50%/50% Ellie 80% ghost, 20% human

Vlad can live without his ghost part, just as Ellie can live without her human part, but Danny won't survive unless he turns back into a human ("Ghost Planet") or dies completely ("The Ultimate Enemy").

And both variations are buried (ha!) after full stabilization. He is now one whole, albeit different (I love the "ghost king" trope, so) he is the king of everything. He is everything.

There's a reason Pariah was in a coffin and not destroyed.

Neither Vlad nor Ellie died

Ever

Ellie was created in half-ghost form. Vlad had a very severe case of ectoplasmic poisoning. When he first became a ghost, he was 80% human and 20% ghost. It's just that the longer he was in ghost form, the more ectoplasm he had in his body Perhaps it's wrong to call him a "ghost," but in that case it's also wrong to call Ellie human

But Danny was dead. It was only a moment (it was an eternity), but he died from the electrocution and was brought back by ectoplasm and the realms.

Neither of them understands this emptiness that has appeared in Danny.

None of them has lost anything. Except Danny.

Option 2: Vlad really died, and he and Danny are the only ones who understand each other's loss of "something." He and Danny are truly the same.

I love Ellie. She is a person. But in my mind, she's not human. Which is fine.

But in my mind, she doesn't grow. She's always 12 years old. Because she was created (and died) at that age And was imperfect She can't change her state because there's a high risk of her destabilizing and turning into slime So from "cousin" she becomes sister, and from sister she turns into sister/daughter (depending on how they feel at the moment)

DP IDEA

When halfas are human they can’t use their ghost powers, right?

I like the headcannon that if a halfa dies in their human form, they are more dead that alive and they can now use one ghost power in their human form, or more if they die multiple times.

I want to see Danny using his ghostly wail in his human form because he dies on the GIWs dissection table

Or Dani turning invisible while she was roaming Texas during a mall shooting because she got into a train wreck somewhere is east Asia

Just some ideas! If someone wants to use this idea then plz tag me :))

Metahumans are just Liminals

So! As far as I know, Metahumans get their powers because they have Nth Metal in their DNA (I think? It might be a single continuity thing).

But what if Nth Metal is just Solidified Ectoplasm?

Metahumans are just a different Brand of Liminal. They get their powers from Metalic Ectoplasm in their DNA rather than Pure Ectoplasm in their Soul. As such, their powers are much more based on their Genetics rather than their Obsessions.

A Metahuman is more likely to have children who share the same power. It is Passed On through their DNA, and as such it may not actually fit the users Personality. The upside is that the Power is usually stronger than normal.

A Liminal will get their powers from their Soul. Whatever fits their Obsession the best is what they will get. The downside is that their power is weaker than a Metahumans abilities.

A Ghost is the perfect combination of the Two.

They have a Core made of Metalic Ectoplasm, and a Soul made of Pure Ectoplasm. They have the Power of a Metahuman, and the Fitting Nature of Liminals.

Side Note: Halfas are kind of an even better version of that? They have the Metalic Core, the Pure Ecto Soul, and the Body of a Human to contain the Power.

Thoughts?

Halfas

So- I had this epiphany moment while writing the other post about Amitians like Red Hood, Supernova (Superboy/Kon), and Raven.

So in dcxdp fanfics, they make Red Hood either a liminal, revenant, or a halfa.

But you know how demons are from hell? And that hell is part of the realms along with many other purgatories and afterlives?

Wouldn't that make Raven a halfa too?

Because halfas are half alive, half dead. And yes, you can argue that Raven never died or whatever... but with her magic, I bet that she has the essence of death at least. Or maybe when- ok, you know Teen Titans where Raven had the white clothes instead of the purple after Trigon used her as a portal? What if she sorta died in that time?

Either way, I want there to be something with Raven. Because people are just missing out on using this half-demon half-human thing to their advantage.

like- it makes sense, right????

Please tell me this isn't the sleep deprivation talking

How the Ghost Zone works: A speculative essay by me, the sexiest phan alive, because fuck Butch Hartman

So, to start off with, I think we need to establish what the ghost zone is, and how it relates to time and space and how one can access any point in time and space through it

The Ghost Zone is, to begin with, an afterlife, shocker I know. Now, if it's the one singular afterlife, a between point for more conventional afterlives like Valhalla or Heaven, or if afterlives like those are merely contained within the zone, is a moot point. The important part is that it is almost or entirely comprised of ectoplasm. Nowthe question becomes "What is Ectoplasm?" well, I believe it is the energy of death in a plasma form, sort of like the primordial gasses and space dust that existed at the beginning of the universe to later form more complex gasses and later liquid and solid matter. Except instead of adhering to the forces of gravity, big to small, it is attracted to emotion, the more emotion and willpower, the greater amount of ectoplasm that can accumulate and be manipulated. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

The reason the zone can be used to access any point in space, time, even alternate timelines, is because, to put it simply, everything everywhere is always dying. People were dying in England in 1653, people are dying in America in 2025, People will die in France in 2856. And if multiverse theory is correct, people are dying then too. And if they die, they have to be able to access the zone. Thus the only way for a place to be completely INaccessible is for literally nothing to have ever lived or will live in that place, because if something lives, inevitably, it will die.

Now, back to what I was saying before about ectoplasm being attracted to emotions, this is how I believe ghosts form. At the time of a being's death, their emotions will attract ectoplasm to it if strong enough. a bug with little emotion might wind up as just a little gob of ectoplasm , but a fully sentient being full of regrets and pain will wind up as a fully sentient ghost shaped by those emotions. Which is a good a segway to start talking about the actual ghosts as any.

Now, I've categorized the ghost into 4 different categories depending on their origins and general level of strength with several examples

The undead, this is what you or I would typically think of when you hear "Ghost," , they lived, they died, they came back due to their emotions at their time of death, and these emotions shaped their abilities and personalities as a ghost, what anyone in the phandom would refer to as an obsession. Ember died an unappreciated and forgotten musician in a housefire. Now she exists as a ghost who's whole existence is dependent on being heard and remembered. Sydney Poindexter, a bullied child who suffocated being stuffed in his own locker, now haunts his old locker and now devotes himself to stopping bullying. Desiree, an ex harem member to a sheik(I think?maybe a sultan) was executed because she couldn't or wouldn't obey her master's wishes now exists as a genie that grants any wish heard.

Next up are the Neverborn. these we know the least about, but there are definitely beings that were never born, never lived, but still exist as ghosts. These include Box Lunch, Dani, and the other clones. Maybe they exist purely because of another's desires to have a child, but because Vlad had impure or muddled desires when making them, they dissolved.

Then we come to what the phandom refers to as the "Ancients". These beings seemingly have existed for millenia, are much bigger and stronger than the undead, and seemingly encompass entire concepts of the universe. This is because, I believe, they aren't the remnants of singular beings, but rather the combined conglomerates of the thoughts and feelings of the entire multiverse. Say one man dies thinking about time itself as he passes. He doesn't come back as an undead, but that thought sticks around as a little blob of ectoplasm. Then this happens again. and again. and again. Trillions of beings in the past, present, and, because the zone exists forever, the future, all thinking about this one little thing all of us have thought about a billion times a day. But let's not just stop at time, Don't people die thinking "Nature is so beautiful, but so deadly" "This storm is so powerful, i wish i could've survived it" "This will be my last time sleeping, so I hope it is a pleasant dream." Clockwork. Undergrowth. Vortex. Nocturn. I even believe that rather than an undead, Pariah Dark was the very concept of a king made manifest.

And last but not least, the halfas. Now, remember that gravity analogy, how ectoplasm is attracted to emotion. Undead are like rubber band balls, ectoplasm wrapped around a core of obsession. Ancients are like snowballs, one little flake accumulating more snow as it rolls down a hill. Halfa's are like apex predators that absorb more and more nutrition from everything below them in the foodchain. Because instead of little wisps of singular emotions and obsessions, that's an entire personality dunked in a whole dimension of ectoplasm. It adheres to their everything, their constantly evolving and shifting personalities attracting more and more ectoplasm as they feel. The longer they go, the stronger they feel, the more they become

Now, there's a bunch of stuff I have no clue about, mostly pertaining to artifacts like the reality gauntlet, Freakshow's staff, and Pariah's crown and ring, but I feel like most of those are one offs that don't have an impact on the lore as a whole, so i feel comfortable ignoring those.

Until next time
