Title: Grounding Wire
Fandom: -_- DP is (C) Butch Hartman, whose name tells all
Rating: G
Warnings: If you quint reeeeeeeeeally hard . . . nope, nothing
Ever since the release party fiasco, and their exchange of secrets, it’s gotten easier to survive Lancer. It’s not that Lancer is any easier on him–Lancer now has as much give as Lancer ever did, which comes out to exactly nothing–but there’s an undercurrent of trust that wasn’t there before. When he’s in detention and says “I need to go,” Lancer gives him this look and then nods and covers for him while he’s gone. This doesn’t get rid of the detention, merely delays it a while.
It’s easier in other ways too. Danny hadn’t realized how much it was costing him to keep this hidden, how much it hurt to never be able to talk about it with people who could guide him through it, until he simply didn’t anymore. Not that what advice Lancer can give is often applicable to him, but it is a safety net, the ability to call in another person who believes him when he talks about ghosts and can more-or-less fight them alongside him when he can’t do it alone.
Looking at Lancer (the normal, everyday, teacher) handing back tests, Danny Fenton, AKA Phantom, would never guess that Lancer is almost as dependent on him for a grounding in the merely insane.
Because Lancer's soul is torn and Danny's life is a soap opera.
