Cryptid Amity Park - Tumblr Posts

I'm definitely doing this ✨

Funeral Au!

So I’ve seen a lot of Justice League and BatFam meet Danny Phantom and it’s usually due to a fight/summoning/investigation/relation.

All of which are absolutely amazing! But I haven’t seen a SINGLE fic of them meeting Danny because they straight up crashed his funeral.

I’m also not talking about full-ghost Danny, our boy is still VERY much a Halfa.

Seriously consider the comedy that can be achieved with this.

I’m picturing it’s like at least a year after Danny beat Pariah Dark and all the citizens have pretty much accepted the fact that Phantom is their undead hero whom they’ve come to love.

Danny has pretty much fallen into a routine with his rouge gallery and although Amity is still 100% ghost infested it’s doing a lot better then it was with dealing with ghost attacks and ignoring the weirdness that pops up.

Then enter a well meaning child who has been taught that if you want to show appreciation to someone who is dead you put their favourite flowers on their grave. This kid who was just saved/ has been saved before by Phantom basically catches Danny with his metaphorical pants down when they innocently ask “where’s your grave? I want to give you flowers.”

Danny “no-brain-to-mouth-filter-when-panicked-and-has-been-surrounded-in-ghost-culture” Fenton’s first and only response is “I don’t have one cause no one mourns for me. Graves are only made for those who had people who cared that they died.” realizing what he just stated and then fleeing as fast as he can.

Amity Park gets a wake up call that THIS IS A DEAD CHILD, who, as Phantom was so kind to point out, DOES NOT HAVE A GRAVE AND OMG THERE ISN’T EVEN A MISSING CHILD REPORT AND HAVE WE BEEN RELYING ON A MURDERED KID TO SAVE US???????!!!!!!

Cue panic and Amity Park just going we need to show this Kid we care about him so lets give him a funeral. Danny is oddly touched and put off by the entire situation but honestly it’s also one more thing that protects his identity so overall it ain’t a bad thing.

Now look at it from the side of The Justice League/BatFam/other hero.

Amity Park’s news paper is probably going ballistic with trying to show their precious ghost kid that they care and love him and thus have a entire section dedicated to the major fights and situations he’s saved them from over the course of his hero career. They are trying to show him that his efforts are recognized and that he is appreciated and at the very end there is the mention of a funeral to be held for “Amity’s Greatest Hero”. Just to really hit home the point that they care for him.

Whatever hero/hero group that comes across a copy of the paper has no context for anything in said paper.

Amity Parkers are the only ones who read it anyways so why would they need to specify that their hero is a ghost? That the villains who attack the city are ghosts? Besides, the paper is meant for Phantom, scattered as much as possible so he can read when he gets a chance.

The hero/heroes are just left heartbroken and speechless because:

The situation in Amity Park is on the level of World ending threats and very much not the local vigilante with local villains standard that normal “small cities” deal with.

Apparently inter-dimensional beings have been invading Earth only to be stopped by a *wheezes* 14 to 16???!!! Year old (possibly inter-dimensional as well or local meta) child.

That child is the only one competent enough to hold the beings back.

That child is dead

This would be a we must go pay our respects to this child hero and we should investigate and set up protection so that all that this kid worked for isn’t for nothing.

Cue Amity’s public funeral for Phantom being crashed by the Justice League with everyone and their grandparents being the definition of confused. Better yet have it so there is a truce for Danny’s funeral so his rouges (who were 100% in the newspaper that the hero(es) read) are sitting/floating in the audience. Boxy is in the middle of a very tearful speech and Phantom is blushing so hard he is actively a glow-stick.

How it goes from there is up to the fic writer but honestly it would be so funny to have the Justice League meet Danny at his own funeral and him actively having to explain that yes ghosts exist and yes his rouges are in attendance cause they may be villains but they are “respectful and understanding villains fuck-you-very-much. Ancients can you believe that they think we’d attack the kid during his funeral! The audacity of some people.”

I just find that there is so many possibilities that can be tied in with the funeral and it can change to be as light hearted or as angsty as one wants it to be.

THANK YOU for pointing that out cuz like, cmon why would anyone think someone dead is actually alive, not including Wes (this ain't bout him)

I don't know why ppl act like Amity Park should have figured out Danny's secret identity when it is by basic human understanding of the laws of the universe the the least obvious secret identity ever.

Reasons why someone wouldn't figure it out:

He's dead, how would he be that one alive kid?

They don't think Phantom has a secret identity at all.

Why would he be that one kinda pathetic nerd kid if he even did have a secret human ID.

His parents are ghost hunters, the leading Ghost hunters, surely surely they would know their own kid is dead.

Older brother Damian, younger brother Danny AU — How they met again after many years of separation

Damian and Danny were separated at the the age of 9 and 6.

Damian was a doting brother and would do ANYTHING for Danny:

Danny’s crying because he can’t see the stars? Damian carries Danny out the window to let him see them

Feeling tired after training? Piggy backs Danny all the way back into their room

Wants to sleep on the same bed with Damian? Say no more

Damian’s behaves the way he does because his bitch ass grandfather “killed” Danny because Danny was his only weakness. So he believes that by not getting attached to someone is the only way to save them.

Now, 9 years later, they reunited at a dog park in Gotham. Damian was taking Titus out for a walk + the batbros trying to have some sibling bonding time. Danny flew all the way from Amity to try out the famous BatBurger.

Damian: Baby star?!

Danny, on instinct: I am NOT a baby ( `ε´ )

Danny, realising what he just said: ヽ(°〇°)ﾉ

Damian: ─=≡Σ((( つಡ‸ಡ)つ BABY!! You’re alive!!!!!!

Danny: ⊂(´• ω •`⊂)

Batbros in the background: (⊙_⊙)?!

Death sentence

We are sorry Phantom, but we need to see by yourselves if you are a threat or not, we will be visiting you tomorrow at 4:40 pm

-Justice League

Danny was unsure about his feelings, apparently the government contacted the JL to eliminate him because he was "dangerous", but Martian Manhunter, knowing the government was not always the best, convinced them, so the League leave a message to Vlad instead.

Vlad didn't want to fight with him, he published the note in Amity newspaper. Now, that was kinda...bad, not for him, but for the rest of Amity Park. It was like being sentenced to death.

While Danny freaked out the entire city was having a meeting, they didn't want the Justice League there, not near Phantom or Fenton, he was a kid, the league have a history ignoring calls and kidnapping child heroes to be part of their "society", and train them "properly". Their kid was already death, they were not going to take risks.

Amity Parkers also know they will start to choose between him as they choose between their "personas", like Phantom and Fenton were different, and yeah, the inhabitants of Amity Park can't judge, it take a while to figure out he was the same but by that point he already saved their lifes and they were already attached to him.

If the League finds out the kid was a halfa they will choose a favorites; "Phantom" being better fighter than "the civil identity Fenton", "Fenton" being intelligent "when he is not at hero work", and to be honest they understand, when a person acts different is normal to separate between the two personalities.

They will obligate him to separate himself, like the "hero" and the "civilian" needed to act different or some stupid thing like that.

But Fenton Phantom was not a personality to separate, they were the same and the small city remembered all the fights, all the favoritism, remembered when Fenton was left out because of his better "half", remembered when they needed to buy the kid an apartment far from his parents cause it taked a while for them to separate "His cute guy Dann-o" and " The Ghost scum"

And the city remembered the sobs, the adults remember leaning out their window at night and hearing the uncontrollable wailing of the ghost, allowing himself to be the scared teenager he always was.

That day, they made a promise, to accept him, all of him, he never needed to be separated in two again, he was not destined to, he was the representation of equilibrium between life and death for god sake. The kid already hidden from them for two years, two years of scars and fighting alone, and they will never repeat that error.

The Justice League have no right to break their promise. And they will never let them ruin another kid, not an Amity Parker.

So, what happened next was just natural; the next day Mr. Lancer called Sam and Tucker, told them to guide Danny to the Ghost Zone for a while, maybe entertain him with his ghost friends, they accepted.

"Team Phantom" was still active (with Dani and Val help) but they had more support than ever, and they trusted their city, all basically united by the guy who literally spends his after life protecting them.

The thing is, it was almost stupid what happened in the past, Danny was sleep deprived, his fight with Pariah ended well but the suit suck too much energy for him, that connected with his lack of sleep ended in a transformation In the middle of town, where everyone could see it.

It took a while to accept the reality, that a boy had fought with the king of the dead for a city that hated him. They even pretended to have no idea about the revelation, acting like they didn't know for another couple of weeks; Although the news spread and gossip was not lacking.

Sam and Tucker expected the other shoe to drop, but they ended surprised when the city called a reunion (since when the totally of the city reunited?), they acted like Danny bodyguards, but what they didn't expected was the Fentons unable to look at them and leave the room.

The people who stayed offered an apology (but Val wanted an explanation) and an apartment (¿the city collected money to give him an apartment far from his home? Danny wasn't sure if he was happy or heartbroken)

When the Justice League arrived the Red Huntress was waiting for them, her weapon pointing the "heroes" who frowned at the sight of the "hero" holding wepons.

"Sorry, ¿is Phantom haunt here?" Martian Manhunter asked cordially, the girl nodded "¿can we talk with him?"

"No"

"¿Why not?¿is he dangerous?¿is he hiding from us? It's okay, we can capture him if that's the case" Flash assured, hoping that would take away the tense atmosphere, the meta ghost was probably the villain of the city or something, so that made the red suit girl the hero.

"We can also give you proper training so you can stop using wepons" Wonder Woman also offered.

"First of all, that's none of your business, you don't go to Star City and ask Green arrow to stop using arrows cause you don't like them, I don't care about your training" the girl answers, obviously annoyed "second, we don't want you here, not near him"

The Martian frowned "Sorry ¿we?"

"We" the girl pointed at the city, all the city was watching them, but contrary to normal meetings they were watching them with resentment.

"Eh, ¿why? Maybe this is all a misunderstanding..." Superman was trying not to look at the people, even the kids on the street seemed to stop what they were doing just to look at them with pure hate in their eyes "can we see the major?".

"I'm here" Vlad appeared behind the girl and greeted them "I see you already meet the Red Huntress"

"Yes, ¿Do you know where Phantom is? We send a note yesterday" Batman asked, the reason of the meeting was not there after all.

"Yes, I remember, the Death Sentence you left on my door cause of the U.S government ¿right?"

"¿Death sentence? That's not-"

"Oh, but it is, you left your precious note in my office, overnight, asking us to hand you over to our local hero for you to search and see if he's a threat, ¿am I wrong?" Vlad was having fun teasing these heroes.

"Sir, we need you to understand, according to the U.S government Phantom is a dangerous individual, maybe he can even destroy your city" Superman tried

"According to the U.S government we don't exist, ¿or did you forget that information on purpose?" the huntress mocked

"I remember, but it was for your safety, the government was trying to contain the threat-"

"The Goverment this, the government that, you see superheroes, we are not ruled by the government anymore, this is a free city, since we were contained here, we produce everything on your own, food, energy, we owe nothing to the government and much less to you"

"¡But we can help you! We can get ride of your meta infestation and-" Flash was trying to mediate

"¿Meta infestation? ¿That's what they told you?, oh poor heroes, getting here with the grown information" the major laughed "Look, I will make myself clear, we have a ghost infestation, Amity Park is now a death city and we prefer it this way"

"And what about Phantom?" Martian Manhunter asked worried.

Vlad sighed "You can visit him, he likes space, however" he pointed at the other heroes "they can't, we don't need the Goverment help, we don't need your help, we are alive because of that boy and we don't want YOUR team near him, Phantom is an Amity Parker and it will stay that way" the major walked away.

"Look, ¿Martian Manhunter? You are a good guy I get it, but we don't want all of you here, the only hero we want is Phantom and we don't need your ideologies or training near him, he is OURS, so please, get out of the city while we are still being nice" Red Hunter stated.

"¿What if you need help?" Batman asked

"We needed help two years ago, the boy you want to take saved us when you decided not to take our pleas, and as such, we won't take yours" the girl said "Amity Park can take care of it's own as always, go save a city that need you"

And with that said she flew away, leaving them at the entrance of the city, the angry shouts and mutters of the citizens saying that they wanted them away in the background.

DP x DC prompt #23

Danny Fenton is what some might label a "mad scientist" which is completely uncalled for. I mean sure he has zero lab safety, scares everyone he meets, and might, on occasion, perform morally dubious experiments, but he's the top person in the clean energy department, most of the machines he makes are made to help the environment, and he even helps donate to organizations to help clean up superhero battles. So why do supervillains keep trying to hire him?

Danny is just here to make sure you’re not up to no good in his town :)

Very minimal dp, mostly spooky rural vibes…

Fake Cryptids, Real Ghosts

Ok, so dp x dc/batfam because this AU has me by the throat but what if it's the fake cryptid batfamily AU who never joined the JL.

Just...imagine it. The Batfamily has been protecting Gotham quietly but fiercely by scaring the daylights out of criminals as creatures that go bump in the night. A bit of stage magic, frightening method acting, contortion, a whole language comprised of chirps, growls, and body language, and the best tech possible and you've got a recipe for striking fear into the hearts of everyone.

They've got shrines on the rooftops, vaguely on the JL radar (Cause really, who's gonna believe that Gotham, one of the worst cities has a demon problem? Constantine? Homeboy took one look at Gotham and went Nope.) and they're protected cause any self respecting Gothamite wouldn't go spilling the beans to Outsiders. The Bats keep them safe. Who would believe them anyways?

Enter half dead, half alive Danny Fenton.

Danny Fenton who has a best friend's named Tucker and Sam who find out about the Gotham Cryptids, and go absolutely ham on research because here lies something,a bunch of someone's who are Other. Maybe they're creepy but they're cool and they're Heroes and they help people.

Sure, at first it was an attempt from Sam and Tucker to help their best friend feel less alone in the face of other, more 'normal' heroes and people out there in the world. Maybe they try to further bury the Bats online cause if anyone understands keeping on the down low, it would be Amity Parker's. For awhile, Danny Fenton, sometimes Phantom is simply happy to know he's not alone.

Then he's outed and his sister who's long since been ecto-contaiminated is put at risk there's nowhere that seems safer. Gotham is a chaotic city, even without the Bats factoring in. After all Gotham has (Demons-Spirits-Creatures?) The Bats already. Who would care if a halfa and his sister hide out there? As long as they're respectful of their territory, it'll be fine right? Besides, they've got to warn the Bats anyways about the GIW and government. They're coming after ghosts, who knows if they'll be next? Spooky things have to look out for each other after all.

Cue shenanigans as Phantom who stops hiding all of his creepier traits as a ghost walks up to the Totally Human but Faking it Batman with really thoughtful gifts for all of their shrines (And one fruitcake), no heartbeat and an earnest plea for a safe haven in their Haunt because the Ancients taught him manners and the importance of respecting another entities territory.
