It’s funny that like majority of DP fics are Jack and Maddie find out he’s Phantom and torture him when they’ve found out like three separate times in canon and accept him and love him regardless.
Or have even worked with him as Phantom as reluctant allies. Like yes it’s fanfiction but did some of yall even watch the show. It’s so terribly OOC and I feel like I’m crazy cause I’m the only one it bothers everybody else be eating it up like crazy. The fact that this has been the trope for like 20 years too…
Bitter Reunions - Danny himself states he know his parents will accept him no matter what.
Reality Trip - accepted and fine
Million Dollar Ghost - Jack lets him go they have a truce
Ultimate Enemy - accepted and fine? (Memory fuzzy)
Masters of Time - bro didn’t even exist and they accepted him and loved him like
Finale - accepted and fine
Yet everyone watched or didn’t watch and just went nah they’d never accept him. Lemme write my OOC abusive evil Fenton parent fanfic.
And like I used to eat it up but idk now that I’m older I kinda can’t stand it.
It’s so hard searching for fics in the DP fandom. If it’s not this it’s all crossover with Batman. Or a combo of the two that follow the exact same plot. Tortured, run sways, adopted by Bruce, dates a batboy or girl. Ugh. I’m tired grandpa
Like please it’s the way if I exclude that tag and the Batman tag the fics drop from 30k to 15k. Lowkey wild to see.
