Often, it starts with some sort of accident or incident that leads to the discovery. For example, Danny might lose control of his powers in front of his parents. Then, there's usually a period of shock and confusion from the parents. They might not believe it at first and try to find scientific explanations.
In some fanfictions, Danny's mom might find out when she accidentally witnesses Danny transforming into his ghost form. Maybe she walks in on him at a crucial moment.
Danny might react with panic at first. After all, he has been hiding his identity from his parents for so long. He could try to escape from them, using his ghost powers in a desperate attempt to get away before they can do anything drastic.
I also like 'When Parents Know'. It takes a different approach where Danny's parents find out in a rather unexpected way. The fanfiction focuses on how the parents' knowledge affects Danny's relationships with his friends. It shows that the revelation doesn't just change things at home, but also has an impact on his social life outside the family.
Often, it starts with Harry realizing the full extent of being left by his parents. This could be through a memory or an encounter. Then, he may go through a period of sadness and confusion. For example, in some fanfictions, he might struggle with his self - worth.
Danny's relationships with others can also change due to his transformation in fanfiction. If he has a new or different transformation, his friends might react in various ways. Some could be scared, while others might try to help him. This affects how he interacts with them and can lead to character growth. He might become more empathetic towards others' feelings about his powers.
Often, in fanfiction, conflicts play a big role in their relationship development. Maybe there's a new character who is interested in Danny and Sam gets jealous. This jealousy makes her realize her true feelings for Danny. And Danny, in turn, sees how much Sam cares and his feelings for her intensify. It's a common trope that helps to move their relationship forward.
It can develop in various ways. It might start as a hostile relationship, with Dash bullying Danny as usual. But as the story progresses, they could find themselves in a situation where they need to cooperate, like when facing a powerful ghost. This shared experience can gradually turn their relationship into one of mutual respect.
Well, in some versions, Danny might use his ghost powers to track Vlad's lair. He could turn invisible and sneak in, then overpower Vlad using his unique abilities like intangibility and ectoblasts to free his parents.
In some fanfictions, Danny Phantom may hate his parents because they are constantly trying to hunt him down. His parents are ghost hunters and they don't know that Danny is actually half - ghost. So their actions of trying to capture and study ghosts put Danny in a dangerous and uncomfortable position, which could lead to feelings of hatred.
Well, usually they start as friends. They have common interests like fighting ghosts and standing up for what's right. They might share little moments of closeness, like when Sam patches up Danny's wounds after a tough fight. This builds a sense of trust and caring between them.
