Goooood morning everyone, Happy Father's Day~ x3 💚Couldn't resist the chance to upload something simple & sweet for the occasion (surprisingly on time too, no less lol); esp. since yall seemed to enjoy the last batch of family memories I showed with the Fentons in my DP Next Gen-
Here's another lil time capsule with Lilith Fenton in her tiny, chubby-cheeked baby days; the apple of her parents' eyes even with her budding, unexpected-ghost powers popping up on them at times. With the natural precautions taken to keep them at-bay through Fenton-invented neutralizers (safe enough for a baby to wear), it gave her folks more peace to just enjoy the times of her wiggly, snuggly infancy…
Especially, as shown above, the chances Danny could take to gently fly through the night with Lilith safe in his arms… snoozing away without a care in the world~ :3 No matter how tiring parenthood can be on Danny, (let alone mixed with his usual superhero duties) to have this lil one in his life as his baby, after all he's been through… he wouldn't change that for the world~ 🥺🙏💙
(For those curious to learn more about Lilith in my NG, her bio info can be found here~):
Danny didn't know at what point in his life he adjusted to international fame, but he took it in stride. It's not like he had much choice anyway, being a half-dead superhero that saved the world and all. The first few years after his exposure, he attended press conferences and graced the occasional fan convention (due to much persuasion on Tucker's part).
He was twenty-one when he appeared in his first commercial. He never really considered acting, but the agency approached him with a generous contract with a considerable amount of money. And let's be honest, working at FentonWorks was enough to pay the bills but if he was going to pay off his student loans, he needed as much cash as he could get.
His friends and family teased him about it. Endlessly. Especially that one time he was in a Super Bowl commercial (Talk about mortifying! The entire country saw that!), but he rolled his eyes and moved on. If it wasn't for those dumb commercials, he wouldn't have gotten his Engineering degree. Not to mention all those campus renovation fees he'd racked up from ghost fights.
"Tired of feeling like the living dead? I'm Danny Phantom, and I get it. Mornings can be difficult, that's why I start every day with a glass of SunnyD! Guaranteed to make every day feel more alive than ever!"
Years went by. Danny eventually got a real job at Axion Labs. It was a flexible enough position that he could duck out and fight ghosts at any time. As a result, he starred in fewer commercials. His fame waned a bit too; he was still the world's half-ghost hero, but nothing bad had happened in a while. The world was at peace and he was old news. Thank Clockwork. Fame was alright, but it was suffocating at times.
He and Sam settled down and had two kids: James and Lilith. They both gradually developed their own powers, much to Danny's relief. Neither of them had come out of the womb flying and didn't even learn to transform until they were both five, so that saved him a lot of stress. His worst fear had been superpowered babies… now that would've been a disaster.
When James was eight, they finally decided to try public school. Predictably, they pulled him out within the week and resumed homeschooling. Ghost powers and children simply didn't mix. Eventually, his kids would integrate into society, but not until they were much older. Not until their cores had fully developed.
Seven years later, Lilith was ready to enter the seventh grade. Unlike James, she had no previous experience in public school so she was understandably nervous. Her parents had assured her that she didn't have to go, but Lilith was determined.
"I'm thirteen! My powers are mostly stable and I just want to hang out with normal girls my age. Besides, Mom's a good teacher and all but… I'm almost ahead of her in math."
"We understand," he said, "but if anyone gives you a hard time or if you get nervous, don't feel obligated to stay there."
Her eyes widened. "What? You think people might… make fun of me because I'm a ghost?"
Danny glanced at Sam. He certainly considered it, but that was because after all these years he was still a little insecure about his own ghostliness. Sam picked up on his uneasiness and answered for him.
"There's a chance that some kids will try to test you, bait you because you're different than them. Stay away from those kids; anyone who sees differences as a bad thing wasn't raised right. And just know that being a ghost doesn't define you, it doesn't define your Dad or your brother or your Aunt Elle."
Lilith nodded. "Alright. Thanks, Mom!"
Danny saw her off to school and watched her walk through the front gates of Raven Middle, the same school that he, James, and Sam had attended. Lilith would be the last in their family to walk those halls before joining her brother at Casper High. How had they gotten here? It seemed like only yesterday that Sam was trying to free the frogs.
Somehow, it'd been nearly twenty years since those days. His kids were growing up so fast… he couldn't wrap his mind around it. Tears welled at the edge of his vision and Danny didn't brush them away.
"Dad," James coughed. "Are you gonna just stare out the window or do I need to fly myself to school?"
Danny snapped out of his reverie. He couldn't believe he forgot he still had to drive his eldest to Casper High.
"Yeah." He blinked the tears out of his eyes, hoping that James didn't catch them. "School, yeah."
When he picked Lilith up from school, she was visibly upset. Her backpack hung heavy on her shoulders and her eyes were pink with tears. Damn it, he chastised himself. I knew we should have waited.
"I hate you," she decided when she opened the car door.
He wasn't expecting that.
"I, um, alright? What did I do?"
His daughter had never said that to him before. She'd told Sam she hated her a few times, but Lilith… Lilith was a Daddy's girl. She always had been. They got along well, much better than Danny remembered getting along with either of his parents, and he loved it. This sudden change in attitude unnerved him.
"It's all your fault!" she threw her hands into the air dramatically. "All of it!"
"Lilith," he said slowly. "What are you talking about?"
"'Vaping drains the life out of you, trust me I know, I'm half-dead,'" she quipped. "'Know the real cost: save your brain, save your life."
He gaped at her. That was the line from his latest commercial. He hadn't done one in a few years, but some anti-vaping company had made him an offer and he figured to accept it for old times' sake. He wasn't really that into the smoking-vaping debates, but from what they told him he could see semblance in the anti-vape argument.
"You're a freaking meme, Dad! A meme!"
"Oh," he said dumbly. "I am?"
"Yes. Yes you are! Everyone asked me if I'm half-ghost because I vaped too much! I can't handle this."
"Did you… at least make friends?"
"Oh yeah," she said flippantly, "I have a bunch. Everyone fought over who got to sit with me at lunch."
His guilt dissolved. When he was teased about his parents in school, it was always malicious. At least the kids at her school were actually interested in befriending her… if not for all the commercial jokes.
"Why did you have to do it?" she asked. "Why did you have to do that commercial?"
He laughed. Lilith was going to be just fine.
… at least until the other kids learned about her ghost sense.
forgot if this was asked before, but why exactly does lilith have curly poof hair, when both her parents have straight hair?
Oh, she got that from her grandma Maddie! <3 I always liked to headcanon Maddie's curly hair from college is her natural texture (she just got it styled shorter later on for easier management during her ghost researcher work).
Similar reason why Lilith's sister Morgan has freckles when neither her parents do; its another recessive trait from Danny's side of the family (most prominently seen in his Aunt Alicia, & also briefly in Danny when he was little):
Heya everyone, whooo’s up for a good ol’ Voice Actor Headcanon vid (ft. the “main 7” of my DP Next Gen-verse)~ 😉💚 ✨
Been a super long since since I did one of these; ever since I’ve been trying to revamp my NG-verse more, I figured my cast is long overdue for some voice HC touchups too (some staying similar, others a bit different, etc.). Enjoy~ 👻💜
What type of relationship do Morgan and Lilith have? I can see Lilith playfully ribbing on Morgan and Morgan finding Lilith to be her annoying big sis.
Yeah, being sisters they are bound tend to mess with eachother at times (whether it's through Lilith being too nosy/lowkey-overbearing, Morgan being too stubborn/lost in her own world, or anything in-between really lol)
At the core of it all though, Morgan & Lilith do still care for eachother at the end of the day; through thick & thin, these sisters have had eachother's backs from the very beginning 🙏🥺💚
Heyy everybody! Big news for those who’ve been following me for my Danny Phantom Next Gen-Verse content; remember when I made that one poll (for those who follow me on DA too) a couple months ago, about potentially writing up NG fics again?👀
…Weeeell, looks like I may be cooking up something to help “officially” introduce the verse, after all~ 😉💚 Basicaly consider this the prologue/“pilot” episode of the DP NG verse of mine; from Morgan & co.’s ghost hunting operations work, her inner circle dynamics (friends & family-wise), the rivalry she has with Tyler/the Guys-in-White in this current iteration, and even how she and Prince Arthur first met one another (fiery scales & all, hehe~ ;p 💜🔥)
Not sure when exactly I’ll be getting this done, but I hope you all stay tuned nonetheless for those interested!~ x3
*wheezes & faints*
Boiiiii, I did NOT mean to take so long drawing out both of these gals, my bad ghlkjhk T-T. With how long they've been around as two of my older next gen OCs in-general, I wanted to ensure both sisters stood well both on their own & as a family duo...
*claps* Soooo, without further ado, introducing the OG Fenton girlies, Morgan & Lilith~ 👻✨
For those of yall new to my page/DP-verse/just Morgan & Lilith in particular; they're basically meant to be the far-future daughters of local Amity Park hero, Danny Phantom. While Lilith was born with a good amount of her dad's Halfa abilities for crime fighting, Morgan in-comparison was actually born a regular, non-powered human (the only noticeable hint to her ghostly genes being her snow-white hair).
Spending a good period of her younger years awkward and unsure how to stand next to her dad and sister, Morgan would soon take up an apprenticeship under renown ghost huntress, Valerie. While she spent the next couple years developing her own strength & sleek huntress persona ("Ultra-Violet", or just "U.V." for short)... Lilith (under her own heroic title of "Lil-O-Wisp") continues to protect their hometown dutifully & earnestly.
Even with all their own differences, and Lilith's own occasional embarrassing "big sis" moments while tag-teaming with Morgan... when it all comes down to it, the Fenton's will always have eachother's backs, no matter what~ 🙏 All the while their dear mom & dad watch on with a smile, bringing them back to their own past as young, fledgling heroes~... 💚💜
Ahhh chibi comics... oh how I missed making 'em lol 😭 Buuuut yee, after all the fun I've had with the recent batch of DP NG revamp refs, I couldn't resist trying my hand making something quick & silly to represent the sisterly dynamic of the Fenton girls, Lilith & Morgan~ :3
So, here we have Morg spending a quiet moment to herself looking up hangout ideas for herself... when in pops up ghostly big sis Lilith curious to see what she's up to lol. Of course, Morg being the flustered snow-bean that she is, quickly shooes Lili away from being too nosy...
...oooooonly for that to last not even a minute before Lilith cheekily guesses exactly who Morg's hanging with~ ;p A certain ghostly flame from the Zone itself... hmmmmm?~ 👀💚
