Hi everyone!

So, I now have an account on Archive of Our Own. All my stories will now be posted on both sites.

I'm an avid reader and I love writing, but I'll admit that the former tends to win over the later. I once saw and Instagram post that summed up my attitude to writing perfectly, that said: "I have this problem where I would much rather read the story I'm trying to write than actually write it". Unfortunately this generally results in very slow updates to my stories as I am constantly getting frustrated over the fact that I cannot write as quickly as I can read. That said, I will always explicitly state when a story is being abandoned or is on hiatus (or is miraculously complete). If there is nothing to indicate this, but the story remains un-updated for a long period of time, please assume that whenever I can I am slowly tearing my hair out as I write (and re-write) the next chapter one painstakingly chosen word at a time.

My current story is a Danny Phantom and Young Justice crossover - it begins about a month (maybe two?) after D-Stabilized (Danny Phantom episode) and just after Infiltrator (Young Justice episode).

Favourite genres: Science Fiction and Fantasy mostly. Action is always good and a bit of horror never hurt anyone. Disaster movies (natural disaster, zombies, etc.) are a definite win.

Ghosts and Heroes - Interpretations:

I mentioned in my last chapter that I would post some of my interpretations of topics for my story Ghosts and Heroes. These probably won't be very important to the plot, but thinking of these helped me combine the two universes in my head so they made sense to me. As some people questioned how it all fit together, I thought I would post it here if anyone wanted to look.

Ghost Zone and its connection to our World: First off, the Ghost zone isn't the "afterlife", just a separate dimension that became linked to ours. Originally the two dimensions were not connected in the slightest. But then at the very beginning of our world's history, the Infinity Gauntlet was created using both mystic and ecto energies. Magic and ecto-energy are very similar and joining them in such a way fused the two dimensions together such that they became each other's "flip side". Magic and ecto-energy also underwent this treatment - magic is one side of the coin, ecto-energy is the other. Thus magic and ecto-energy can affect one another, and magic is an effective force against ghosts. However, the entanglement of the two worlds did have an effect on the "afterlives" of their subsequent denizens, see below.

Afterlives Humans/Ghosts: The connection between the two worlds created a blurring between the afterlives of the two species. The first effect is simply the resemblance of particular individuals between the worlds - the origin of the concept of ghosts being the souls of deceased humans. Magic and ectoplasm are conduits of emotion, memories and personalities and so in areas where the two worlds are in close connection (such as Amity Park) these personalities may flow through the worlds. As many ghosts form spontaneously from ectoplasm, some may retain a copy of a personality that travelled though the fabric of the worlds (taking on a similar appearance as well). The reverse can also happen - a human adopting a copy of the personality/appearance of a ghost - though the effect is less obvious as humans take a longer time to grow and thus will be more likely to develop their own personality outside of the imprint (Tucker is one such human - having a copy of the personality of the ghost Hotep-Ra). The second effect is the ability of the souls of ghosts and humans alike to draw on the "flip side" energy to retain a form after death (i.e. human souls draw on ecto-energy, ghosts on mystic energy). The third effect is extremely rare: the conversion of a denizen of one world into a denizen of the other. Only two ghosts are known for certain to have been originally denizens of Earth - Cujo and Poindexter. It is believed that the Lords of Order and Chaos may have originally been denizens of the Ghost Zone that were converted to denizens of the Human world, but they refuse to confirm or deny such theories.

Ghosts, Spirits etc: Ghosts are the inhabitants of the Ghost zone, just as humans are the inhabitants of Earth. Spirits are the souls of humans who are using ecto-energy to retain a form after death, they are found only on Earth. Wraiths are the souls of ghosts who are using mystic energy to retain a form after death, they are found only in the Ghost Zone. A Spectre is an echo of past personalities, memories, etc. that have flown through the ecto and mystic energies of the two worlds. They are not conscious and are no more than recordings of events that resonated within the link between two worlds. These can be found in both the Ghost Zone and Earth.

Dani's gender: Ectoplasm does not clone well. Lower-level ectoplasm simply decays and destabilizes. However, higher-level ectoplasm requires the maintenance of an ecto-signature, which undergoes mutation when cloned. Vlad managed to contain the mutation to the point where an almost identical ecto-signature was formed, the only difference being the gender of the individual formed.
