Jekyll & Phantom!!! (& also Phantomlust)
Oh--oh, someone actually sent an ask, I really didn't think anyone would lol. What were the rules again...
A snippet or something about it, all right!
Jekyll & Phantom
Basically Danny in his senior year is forced to play the lead role in the Casper High production of Jekyll & Hyde because he is failing English and Lancer agrees to give him extra credit to play the part so he can graduate on time. It's set after Phantom Planet so the catch is that he plays Jekyll in his human form and must transform into Phantom for Hyde. The news spreads through Amity Park and the school board is extremely excited about the money they are going to make off the ticket sales for this show. Danny is very opposed to the idea because he does not like the implication that Phantom is his evil half, but he feels cornered because he does not want the whole town to think Danny Phantom is a loser that can't even get a high school diploma.
Phantomlust
This title is a little bit of a joke, I actually don't really know what to call this fic yet lol. I originally called it Art of Seduction after the book I was referencing for it.
Basically, Maddie hires Valerie to seduce Danny Phantom so he'll be easier to take down and capture. But Valerie sucks at seduction and flirting so Maddie, an expert seductress herself, tutors her in the art of seduction. And she expressly directs Valerie to practice on her own son because Maddie is the absolute worst parent ever in all of my fics.
Here's a snippet:
“I’ll see you Wednesday, then,” said Maddie as she started leading the way out of the observatory. She stopped right at the door and turned around. “You know, if Danny’s out in the living room, you could go ahead and try being a coquette with him.”
“Wha—” Valerie balked. “What do you mean? Like try a seduction technique on your son? Here in your own house?”
“Well, why not? You’re going to need to practice.”
Valerie opened her mouth, closed it, then opened it again. “You don’t think that’d be weird?”
“Not at all,” said Maddie. “Plus it’ll allow me to gauge how well you’re absorbing the lessons. Much more convenient for me than if you practiced on some boy I don’t know.”
Valerie looked down at her shoes and rubbed her fingertips. “Well, what… What do I do exactly?”
“Just keep it simple since you’re just starting out,” said Maddie. “You were warm and inviting when you first showed up at the door and he greeted you, right?”
“Yes, of course. He’s my friend.”
“So now when you leave, act cold. When he says bye, give him just a nod or maybe don’t even respond at all, just walk by.”
Valerie felt frozen in place. “But… But I don’t want to do that to Danny! What if I hurt his feelings?”
“That’s the hot-and-cold coquette’s angle,” said Maddie. “You’re going to have to put your conscience aside for this plan to work, you know. You must always think of the ones you’re seducing as victims to be manipulated to your advantage.”
“Okay, I can do that with Phantom, but I don’t want to manipulate Danny,” said Valerie. “I like Danny.”
“Well, I like Danny too, of course. I wouldn’t let you try anything on him that I thought would actually really hurt him.”
Valerie blinked a couple times, too perplexed to speak. She knew Danny’s mother was a bit eccentric but she would’ve never guessed she’d be anything like this.

I'm SO excited for Phantomlust and even more now seeing that you've been working on it. Maddie and Valerie teaming up to make Danny's life hell sounds like exactly my type of fic, and from my favorite writer too. Shaking in my boots with anticipation!!!
It's been a slow project because it requires some research/reading, but I do hope to start publishing it soon! I'm not sure what the final title will be. I've been using Phantomlust because I like the word wanderlust, plus I like simple titles. But idk maybe I'll end up using something like "How To Seduce Danny Phantom in 24 Steps" lol.

Hi! First of all I wanted to thank you for your amazing stories, you’re an incredible writer and everytime I receive an update from one of your fics It never fails to make me excited.
Now that Dissembled is finally complete (can’t wait for the sequel!) will you publish Phantomlust? I’m really curious to read your take on Valerie (she is one of my favs). I don’t want to rush you though! Take your time ;D
One last thing: in “The end of Danny” you wrote that a book inspired you, can you tell me the title? I’d like to read it.
ps. I’m sorry for any grammatical errors, english is not my first language
Thank you! That means a lot to me. And I can't wait for the sequel either.
I haven't written Valerie too much yet, you're right. I've written like ten chapters of Phantomlust now, so I could conceivably start updating it soon. Thanks for letting me know you're interested! That always helps me make decisions about these things.
But if you're interested in how I write Valerie, I have a couple ficlets you can check out here and here.
Also, I actually have a master's degree in teaching English as a second language, and I can tell you I never would've guessed you weren't a native English user. You've got it down!
As for the book that inspired The End of Danny, I'm going to put that under a cut here because it's a very graphic, explicit, horrifying read that I can't actually in good conscience recommend to anyone but certainly not to anyone younger than 18. Click if you dare!
"The End of Alice" by A. M. Homes
