I Wanted To Add On A Bit - Tumblr Posts

"Danny?" Tucker asked.

He didn't say anything, not even twitching. He just kept staring at the sky.

"Oh, no," Sam moved to stand over him, "You don't get to brush that off. I asked if that includes you."

Did that include him? That was a good question. He didn't particularly remember wanting to be anything more than he was, maybe a bit smarter and better liked. He didn't think he wanted much of anything, either. Being invisible, not having or doing anything that would draw significant attention was good. It was safe.

Maybe that was it. Maybe that did include him. The part that hadn't died, Danny Fenton, still didn't like attention. He liked being invisible. Danny Phantom, the part that died, liked attention. He liked that people were seeing and reacting to him. He liked the positive attention.

Danny rolled over so he could stand up without hitting Sam. "I've gotta head home and make sure Mom doesn't try cooking anything."

He ignored Sam and Tucker as he left the roof. He had a lot to think about.

Invisible

“Do you ever think it’s ironic?” asked Sam.  “That people who can become invisible act so flashy?”

Next to her on the roof, Danny kicked his feet back and forth.  A parade of ghosts marched through the streets below.  “I mean, you have to remember the people who become ghosts.”

Sam looked at him.  “What do you mean?”

“Well, it’s people who didn’t get what they wanted in life.  Who wanted to do something, or be something, but didn’t get to.  People who already feel invisible.”

“Does that include you?”

Danny shrugged and leaned back to look at the sky.
