Summary
Step Two: find the shape of infinity.
Meet your own eyes in a mirror. Play back a recording of your own voice, and mimic it again, and again, and again. Feel the ground under you; your shadow feels it, too.

(He avoids doorways, during the wandering; he isn’t sure why. It’s an instinct, backed by something unnameable, not quite fear. Preservation, maybe - like flinching away from something hot enough to burn. He avoids doorways, and simply floats through the walls instead. And if he can’t bear to think of the portal - if the thought of that singular, ultimate threshold makes him choke on air that he doesn’t really need - well, that’s his business, isn’t it?)

Summary
[ Danny looks over the surrounding buildings; in this part of town, at this time of night, most of them are either only half-there, or halfway more there than usual. A cat’s potential lays on a roof down the way, the suggestion of its tail swaying, its body the barest whisper of an animal, seen only by the witch-light backing its silhouette - a faint, ephemeral halo. ]

…The human body does not, after all, account for its processes being done consciously - the brain is fully capable of controlling these things with little input from conscious, deliberate thoughts. This is simultaneously where the case of the haunted house differs from the body, and where it remains the same: it may have the unique ability to observe its insides, and may even have enough self-control to alter them, but it does not - cannot - control those living within. The human residents of a haunting are as vital to it as the walls, and as unknowable to a house as a human’s brain chemistry is to the waking mind…

Summary
An eclipsing binary consists of two close stars moving in an orbit so placed in space in relation to Earth that the light of one can at times be hidden behind the other. Binary star systems are very important in astrophysics because calculations of their orbits allow the masses of their component stars to be directly determined, which in turn allows other stellar parameters, such as radius and density, to be indirectly estimated.
(or: Danny is not quite a ghost in much the same way as he is not quite a human; it follows that the pretenses of one would be just as hard to keep up as those of the other.)

Summary
“Th͢ąt̡’̢l̢l b̷e̷ £1̛0͜.͡9́9,” says the towering, eldritch creature behind the till.
Mechanically, the customer brings out her purse. She doesn’t realise she’s left her groceries until she’s already halfway across the parking lot.
In the store, the creature called Sam is managing to look very much like a kicked puppy. Turning to his co-worker (Jo, says her name tag), he tilts his head, and asks in a very upset voice, “Wa͘s ́i̴t sơm͜et̕h̷i͜ng I s̀aid͢?̨”͝
Jo reaches over and pats the part of his shoulder not covered by gold-blue fur in consolation.

Danny phantom fics that may or may not be connected in some way by SnippySchnapps

Summary
For now, these fics aren’t explicitly connected, but could be if I actually bothered to make the continuity flow better. As-is, this is just where I’m gonna keep all my DP fics that take place in roughly the same universe.

Summary
Every year at the truce party, the ghosts pick one of their members to have a mock funeral on New Year’s Eve. This year, Danny, of all people, is chosen.
He's never had a funeral. He doesn't need one, seeing as he's not dead, and yet... Maybe it would be... nice? But he has to figure out who to invite, and, as always, his post-accident health issues make everything just that much harder.

"Hurry," says Impa, ancient and anxious.
"Hurry," says the ghost of a woman you've mostly forgotten.
The Master Sword burns in your hands as you pull, knees trembling and sweat slick between your shoulder blades.
(People keep telling you who you are, the hero you're destined to be. Eventually, you're going to prove them wrong.)

Summary
“What do you plan to do now that you have found the Avatar’s bison? Keep him locked in our new apartment? Should I go put on a pot of tea for him?”
-Uncle Iroh, Lake Laogai, Season 2 Episode 17Zuko unfolded a small, fuzzy green blanket and tossed it over Appa’s head like a hood. “And this is Appa’s favorite blanket, it’s too small for him, obviously, but he really seems to like it and—”
Appa licked Zuko, knocking off his hat and leaving him dripping. Zuko quickly grabbed his hat and slammed it back on his head but the damage was done—the Avatar had recognized him.
“I can’t believe it,” Aang breathed, staring at Zuko wide-eyed.
Zuko stared back, trying to decide if he could make the jump out the window. The drop would be pretty steep, but he really didn’t want to fight off the Avatar in their new apartment with its nice furniture and Uncle’s tea collection in the corner and—
“Appa found me a firebending teacher!”

Summary
“Sorry,” Clockwork sang back to him, not with out-loud words but something else entirely. “I am sorry.” They reached over his shoulders and past his ears. Something was pressed to his face. A mask. “You know what you must do.”
Danny nodded and stood. He walked, wobbly, around the candles and stood in front of the archway. It wasn’t empty anymore. Danny could see a grassy shoreline beyond it, and a sky full of stars.
He turned back. Just for a moment. The room of candles looked like nothing so much as a field of stars. A field of stars Clockwork was very much part of.
Danny turned away and stepped through the arch.
And then he fell.
