Started working out and lifting weights and Y’ALL!! I see a lil something. It’s not crazy noticeable but to me who knows my bodies I can see the muscle building!!! I’m so proud.
Now I don’t normally post myself on here ever but if I actually manage to keep this up and show some noticeable progress ima have to give y’all a side by side comparison 👏
i am mildly, not upset, but befuddled, as to why we, as the fandom that has our main character as part of an inter dimensional species, who lives in the place between all worlds and is constantly having crossovers with other universes, and is friends/family (depending on the fic) with the embodiment of time who can see all possible and alternate timelines, have never had danny encounter another version of his own world, or another version of himself. the infinite realms are infinite so how has danny never run into another version of himself. an au close to canon running into a version of himself that is like, from a soulmate au, or a version from a vivisection au, or a version that’s been around/immortal/fully dead for centuries! why do we never have danny run into alternate danny, especially since there’s often common places like the far frozen or pandora that he visits, i could mention clockwork but he is time and would probably be able to be in 2 places at once so the danny’s never run into each other. or like, how has danny never seen clockwork’s mirrors showing alternate timelines or worlds and wondered about them, or just like, fallen through a natural portal and gone from their world where he was dating jason to like, a world where he’s been part of the justice league for a while, or a demon twins world, or even just a world that isn’t a dc crossover or something.
just, let’s let danny encounter other versions of himself, not just dan, actual other versions of him in other worlds.

Its a well known fact that ghosts are not human. Any Amity Park resident would be able to tell you that, even without the ectobiologists shouting it from their questionably legal tank of a car.
Danny Fenton is no exception, and really, he shouldn't be as surprised as he is.
Unlike the living, ghosts need ectoplasm to substantiate themselves. It could easily be found within the plants that litter the ghost zone, but like any ecosystem, there is variety.
Some ghosts are able to subsist off of simple grasses. Others prefer the fruit and leaves from flowering bushes. Some ghosts even strip the bark from trees to suck the ectoplasmic sap out from within their trunks.
But other ghosts are not meant to eat the plants at all. These ghosts with their sharpened teeth and claws are predators. Unable to extract the ectopalsm they need from plant life, they instead take it from other ghosts. Some are able to get by without ending their chosen prey, sucking out just enough ectoplasm to get by like a parasite. Others rip and tear into ghostly flesh and lap up the spilled ectoplasm until their quarry is no more.
Since his accident, Danny has become quite adept at catching stray blob ghosts, but they simply aren't cutting it anymore. The odd ectopuss didn't quell the hunger either. After the animal based ghosts failed to satisfy him, Danny was slapped with the realization.
Danny may be half ghost, but he is also half human.
Ghosts are not human.
He is so hungry.
Even now in his human form, Danny can feel the ribs poking through his sides. The shaking of his arms has yet to subside. He doesn't know if its from the gnawing in his stomach or adrenaline.
He can't put it off anymore. He needs to eat. But even though it's a fundamental need for survival his obsession tugs at him in protest. He needs to eat, but he needs to protect too.
He can't stay in Amity Park. That much is certain. The citizens of Amity Park are out of the question, and while the GIW started off as bumbling idiots, they have been getting smarter. He can't subsist off of them, especially with how weak he is in his starved state.
Danny is smart. Surely he can find a food source if he is clever about it. He just needs to flush them out like a cat after a rat. Or maybe he doesn't need to flush them out at all. Maybe he can lure them in like peanut butter in a trap.
His legs shake as he stands from his crouch. As he rises he licks the blood from his claws. Danny stares at what remains of the white suit, it's drying tatters stained crimson.
Yes. If he puts himself in the right positon the vermin will waltz right into his waiting claws, and with her filthy streets and dark corners, where better to find a rat than Gotham.
Amity Parkers know that Danny Fenton is nothing to look at.
They've seen the dude eat shit so many times, they're legitimately surprised his chin isn't permanently bruised from how often it hits the ground after he trips. He's the son of the town crazies and there's even rumors that he's cursed or something, since there's been witness accounts of Fenton's eyes glowing green or disappearing in plain view. His entire time in middle and high school was spent being shoved into lockers, put into wedgies, eating the quarterback's underwear - Daniel "Danny" Fenton was not a prize and was honestly the bottom of the barrel for only the truly desperate.
So, explain to them why the fugly nerd managed to pull so hard once he left Amity?
Every other day, there was a new image or clip of Fenton interacting with a Wayne - the cream of the crop, the ideal of ideals, the ones someone could only dream of the chance of being in the same building as - and a headline detailing some new dramatic action the Wayne kid had taken to fight their siblings for Fenton's attention. If it wasn't a Wayne, it was some other famous person - even Superboy, the teen dreamboat, seemed to shoot his shot with Fenton.
Was there something that Amity Parkers were missing? Fenton didn't exactly look all that different from when he'd graduated high school. Why was the world suddenly treating Fenton like... like a diamond in the rough? It didn't make any sense!
Finally, they think in near unison, watching Fenton bite dust on live television, maybe the world will finally realize that they'd been irrationally attracted to a loser.
Instead, they watch as the world collectively is endeared by how clumsy Danny is and isn't that cute? A little flaw for what is otherwise a perfect person.
Now it was a routinely battle with Technus, they tumbled 'bout, flew into the ghost zone- but it got strange when Technus shoved him in something....
An arcade cabinet, when Danny tried to get out he realized he was stuck?
"T- - Technus?"
his voice was crunched, Technus looking apologetic, "I am- Sorry ghost child..." Technus said in a low tone, which was very unusual for him.
"Technus what is-"
He yelped when a portal sucked him through, Danny felt sick, and soon the spinning ceased...
He had no idea how long he was out for, waking up in a video arcade.
He was situated between Pac-Man and a pinball machine, "Hey it works!" someone said.
"Never heard of this one before" an older man said, the young woman standing up, hands on her hips.
"Well, Phantom Shifter has to be an interesting game!" the woman declared, holding up a quarter, "Knock yerself out, Liz" the man walked away.
To say that the quarter felt odd being inserted into the slot was- not weird, almost like eating food. But a quarter...
[----]
Danny learned he could control the game, and heard from passing people that she was in Gotham, New Jersey in the 1980s, 1989 to be spesific.
He was definitely far from home- but he didn't mind being an arcade! He made a creaking sound when laughing, so when the first time it happened the person who lost's friend laughed, "It's laughing at you!" they cackled, Danny making a small text appear,
How much does an Aroura Borealis weigh?
[move the joystick down to get the answer!]
"Huh... I don't know" they flicked the joystick down
It's pretty light!
The two teens were frozen before bursting out from laughter, "THAT- THAT IS AMAZING! I LOVE WHOEVER MADE THIS THING!" the two teens cackled as they ran off.
[----]
He got popular, FAST, mainly for the puns and jokes he made.
The years went by and- people started to come less and less... He knew why, it was around the time the first home game consoles were being made and manufactured.
It was... Lonely...
[----]
He was jolted awake one day from screaming, he used some energy to move slightly to the window, his core keeping him powered.
he looked out from the now abandoned arcade, and saw fog pooling down the street- it wasn't fog...
He could smell the fear, it was fear gas. People were in trouble, they were being hurt- and that pushed him in overdrive.
Two long, black cat-like legs broke from underneath his body, then black two arms, both having white at the bottom.
He had no idea how this triggered, there'd been countless rouge attacks in the past(the old pac-man machine was replaced with another pinball.) but it was different this time.
Shaking off the questions, he rammed into the wooden boards once, then again, and again until he broke free...
[in a nutshell]
Danny gets cabinet man'd because the giw was plannin something in his universe that'd succeed, Clockwork telling Technus to make a new body for Danny to go into the new universe where he'd reside in for awhile.
He also lost touch with his ghostly abilities until the scarecrow attack :p
