Unknown, Danny November 2nd 10:30 p.m.
______________________________
Unknown: Fenton
Danny: Who tf?
Unknown: I didn't think she was telling the truth that you are drastically different when texting someone
Danny: Well who the fuck texts someone with out introducing themselves. Who is this? How did you get my number?
Unknown: So aggressive
Danny: It takes less effort to block you then actually talk to you so either get what you want out or I'm moving on with my day.
Unknown: WOO GEEZ CHILL
Danny: 🤨
Unknown: It's Baxter
Danny: Your joke isn't funny, be honest dude
Unknown: Why would I be joking?
Danny: Because it's universally known that Dash hates my guts so be realistic.
Unknown: I am not joking?
Danny: Uh huh and I'm the most popular guy in school.
Unknown: You are but in a different sense
Danny: Okay now you are definitely talking out of your ass
Unknown: Why do you swear so much?
Danny: You text me in the middle of the night and I am exhausted. Why the fuck do you think I'm swearing?
Unknown: Right you did have that big fight.
Danny: What fight?
Unknown: Fenton I'm not stupid, that ghost fight with the pirates earlier? You literally saved my life.
Danny: Okay who the FUCK is this?
Unknown: I already told you
Unknown: Dash Baxter.
Unknown: World's biggest problem and Captain of the football team.
Danny: Everything about that sentence is wrong so try again before I actually start hunting you down myself.
Unknown: What about it being me is difficult to understand?
Danny: You acting nice over being an asshole?
Danny: Clearly having my phone number despite me never giving it out to people aside from 4 people
Danny: And the fact you started saying cryptic messages about something that you shouldn't know about.
Danny: So either you are an incredibly stupid or an exceptional overshadowed ghost trying to fuck with me right now
Unknown: Yes I was an asshole to you, I got your phone number from Paulina, it was stupid to just out you over messages and I am incredibly stupid in every sense of the word
Unknown: That is not going to change the fact I am Dash and I promise you I am not fucking with you
Danny: It's odd how I STILL don't believe you
Unknown: "You were cuter when you were a teddy bear" You told me that after dropping in the middle of the football field freshmen year
Danny: I
Unknown: "Why do they always pick you" yelling at some rando ghost that tried taking over me sophomore year
Danny: ....
Unknown: "I swear if you change him I'll kill you." Literally this morning
Unknown: Those were private
Unknown: Please
Danny: Well shit
Unknown: Hi
Danny: What do you want?
Unknown: What?
Danny: You want something right? This is blackmail since you know I am Phantom?
Unknown: No????
Danny: I am wanted by the government and you are telling me this isn't blackmail?
Danny: Baxter you are literally my menace
Unknown: I AM YOUR BIGGEST FAN WHY WOULD I DO THAT??
Danny: People change opinions rather quickly
Unknown: And mine being positive is so far fetch
Danny: given that you are usually my school problem? Yes
Unknown: I've changed over the years??
Danny: You bother me daily
Unknown: But it wasn't-
Unknown: I am trying
Danny: Are you now?
Unknown: I don't know how to ask in public it physically impossible with how many people watch me and how much your friends hover over you
Unknown: If I even remotely do a 180 in public they would have thought I was crazy
Danny: because you sound crazy
Danny: so maybe all we do is banter now but you still say a lot of shit.
Danny: I swear you live in a different world
Unknown: I do
Danny: So what was it you were going to ask
Unknown: I know it's extremely far fetch and definitely not warranted given that I am me and you definitely have some resentment towards me
Unknown: you always been cool and I envy every bite of that life style you have so I was wondering if we could be friends or something
Danny: ....
Unknown: I already knew it was going to be a no. It's the last thing I would deserve since I am "your biggest school problem" as you said. But it was worth a shot and that's all I could ask for.
Danny: Are you asking because I am Phantom or something else?
Unknown: what?
Danny: Are you asking to be friends because I am your idol or some parasocial bullshit?
Unknown: NO! I would have still asked even if I didn't know or you weren't also him
Danny: You know you are the only one that knows that right?
Unknown: What?
Danny: You are the only one that knows that I am also Phantom
Unknown: But Manson and Foley???
Danny: Don't know and if I can help it, never know
Unknown: Oh—
Unknown: For three years you've just
Unknown: hide this from everyone
Danny: Obviously.
Danny: Again I am wanted
Unknown: Yeah that part
Danny: How did you figure it out anyway?
Unknown: it was very risky but just once I tried sneaking a peek of Phantom with no gas mas. You were talking to the little girl Phantom
Danny: Wisp
Unknown: Yeah Wisp, you told her that "haunting the school would be easier" so I figured you were a student here that probably died but then you said you attended classes and I just started looking into it
Danny: Creep
Unknown: I know...
Danny: So the little things?
Unknown: Yeah
Danny: how long from point a to point b?
Unknown: Maybe 3 months?
Danny: Fairly long. If it was a week I would be pissed
Unknown: NO WAY
Danny: Not at you but at myself
Unknown: I mean we aren't that close
Danny: But you do stalk me daily so it means something
Unknown: Oh geez
Danny: You sound like a dork
Unknown: ...
Danny: are you secretly a dork Baxter?
Unknown: Is it that obvious?
Danny: Given that you pick on them, don't swear apparently and are a secret fanboy yeah explains a lot
Danny: Jealousy is one hell of a drug
Unknown: Hm
Danny: Look
Danny: I am setting ground rules here.
Unknown: Huh?
Danny: I will entertain this idea because it actually seems mildly interesting BUT under conditions if you can agree to that then we can make this work.
Unknown: Oh
Unknown: OH YEAH I CAN DO THAT
Danny: Don't just agree before I even mention anything yet
Unknown: I'm sat and listening
Danny: 1) Obviously: I hear a whiff of Danny is Phantom from anyone close to you I am cutting this off and letting the other Phantom's hunt you down.
Unknown: O h
Danny: I run a strict no nonsense policy. Just because I save people doesn't make me all nice and kind this is the real world. Any deluded fantasy of that was an idea of your own making as I am tired of people's BS.
Unknown: Okay fair one question?
Danny: Shoot.
Unknown: What if someone already has a theory? Not from me but they strongly believe it?
Danny: Wes?
Unknown: You know about him
Danny: Of course. I like fucking with him. It's funny to watch him scramble as no one believes him.
Unknown: So?
Danny: If it's wes it's fine. If he manages to convince someone else you tell me immediately.
Unknown: Understood
Danny: 2) Actually improve your personality so it matches the actual way you feel. None of this rude in person but kind at home. Show your change and perhaps I'll take you more seriously. Yes it is hard given that your reputation is built on it but that's the price you'll have to pay. It's junior year you have 2 years before graduation make it work.
Unknown: Okay
Danny: 3) while improving during the second condition this friendship stays online unless 1. we get assigned to work together or 2. I can actually see the improvements
Danny: We can try this and your demeanor if you really want this will be up to you. But also don't just change cause I say so. Authenticity is key, it's not just me but others.
Unknown: Yeah
Unknown: It's definitely not just you
Danny: You are so much more understanding this why and it's throwing me off
Unknown: Sorry?
Danny: Nah It's just me speaking my mind
Unknown: Which I've noted
Danny: Ghosts are more honest than humans are.
Unknown: I do have a ghost question?
Danny: Shoot
Unknown: Do all ghosts have a like human for or?
Danny: That's just me. Technically me and the other Phantom's. It is complicated with the others but I am half ghost half human so I do just have that perk of being alive and dead
Unknown: Schrödinger's cat
Danny: Exactly that
Unknown: another question
Danny: just ask like a normal person Dash
Unknown: if you are both why does it sound like you are more aligned with the ghost over the human half?
Danny: Oh
Unknown: Rude question Im sorry
Danny: Ew don't apologize for that
Unknown: you sounded offended
Danny: Thats a message not a sound you goof
Unknown: Yeah but tone
Danny: Not rude, caught off guard definitely but not rude
Unknown: Oh okay
Danny: I guess, I like hanging with ghosts more. Yeah I grew up human but that's about it, I live among them but even then I have more hate from the human side than from the ghost side.
Danny: Ghost attack because they want to be seen, remembered or they are just playing around but don't realize that it could hurt someone. The humans just have greed. They want me for science, nothing more than a pet or experiment. I'm not a test subject I'm a person. I don't like being dehumanized which just fuels my dislike for that side of things.
Unknown: I guess from your perspective there's a lot more negative than positive things in the human side of things.
Danny: There is.
Danny: BUT
Danny: With this change of yours it's one less problem for me and probably one more positive point for humanity
Danny: Humans change so I guess second chances are worth something
Unknown: I'm glad
Danny: Good anymore questions or can I go back to sleep
Unknown: OH SHIT
Unknown: Right you are extremely tired I'm fine im good probably over the moon right now
Danny: Like Artemis II huh
Unknown: oh?
Danny: Ha space joke you'll gst it eventually
Danny: get me going on space and you will never hear the end of it
Unknown: Ha noted
Danny changed Unknowns name to Oversized Bean
Oversized Bean: ???
Danny: 1) Because it was the first thought I had
Danny: 2) Just in case you text me while someone is looking over my shoulder
Oversized Bean: Fair
Oversized Bean: but a bean?
Danny: yes
Oversized Bean: understandable good day
Danny: BWAHAHAHAHA
Danny: anyway I'ma crash now
Oversized Bean: good night Fenton
Danny: Danny*
Danny: we are friends now
Oversized Bean: sksksksk right
Oversized Bean: good night Danny

Oversized Bean, Danny November 3rd 12:15 p.m.
______________________________
Danny: Are you okay?
Oversized Bean: Near miss I'm okay
Danny: Why were you outside?
Oversized Bean: The fire alarm was pulled
Danny: Ugh worst timing. No one was hurt right?
Oversized Bean: No we are all okay down here, you?
Danny: I'm fine. Fucking Vlad
Oversized Bean: Vlad?
Danny: Wait HA SINCE YOU KNOW
Danny: Plasmus is the shitty Mayor
Oversized Bean: MAYOR MASTERS IS A VILLAIN?!
Danny: Yep and my biggest thorn in the side
Oversized Bean: I wouldn't have expected that
Danny: No one would
Danny: Which is exactly why I hate him
Danny: Rich bitch
Danny: Fruitloop
Oversized Bean: Oh Wes pulled the alarm to get everyone outside
Danny: ....
Danny: He is trying to get people killed????
Oversized Bean: He wasn't thinking
Danny: Clearly I'll deal with him after I deal with Vlad
Oversized Bean: I can handle it
Danny: Huh?
Oversized Bean: I could have gotten hurt or someone else could have gotten hurt. It wouldn't be suspicious if I said something to him. It was dumb and reckless so I'll handle it so you can focus on the mayor
Danny: I'll take it. Less shit on my plate
Oversized Bean: 👍
1:20 pm
Danny: Finally back
Oversized Bean: I can see that, you should have went home
Danny: Like hell, they would think I skipped
Oversized Bean: Technically but you don't look okay at all
Danny: I went to the nurse already. I'm patched they think I got struck by the fight earlier it's fine
Danny: why is everyone giving you a side eye?
Danny: like every 5 seconds from here someone is staring at you
Oversized Bean: Gave Wes an ear full, no one was expecting it
Danny: Ha he deserved it
Danny: I wish I saw his face
Oversized Bean: very scared in the moment as my berating caught the teachers attention and landed him with week detention
Danny: KARMA IS GLORIOUS
Oversized Bean: that brighten your mood
Danny: Of course it did
Danny: I can understand being obsessed but dragging other people into it is NEVER the way. If people get hurt because of selfishness like that they deserve the worst. Knowing where to draw the line keeps people alive.
Oversized Bean: Spoken like a hero
Danny: Nah spoken like a ghost
Danny: Obsessions are like our thing
Oversized Bean: Really?
Danny: Yeah. I do like protecting people but I'm not tied to it. I love space, my ambitions and everything I grew up wishing for was tied to that.
Oversized Bean: woo
Oversized Bean: well we do have a pretty sky at night
Danny: IT'S PERFECT NO NOTES
Danny: the amount of constellations and galaxies you can see from here on this very spot. Even then one day I want to go up north and see if I can catch an Aurora borealis just once because of how majestic it is.
Oversized Bean: Aurora borealis?
Danny: Northern lights
Oversized Bean: Ah
Oversized Bean: I don't know much about sky stuff but that sounds cool
Danny: then what kind of stuff do you know? Because I really don't know much aside from football and apparently that you're a dork
Oversized Bean: is it weird to say the ocean?
Danny: why would it be weird?
Oversized Bean: I mean we don't live anywhere near the ocean so if I were to say that people would think I was weird
Danny: everyone's weird
Danny: are you thinking about like marine biology or just a normal fascination?
Oversized Bean: Paleoceanography and Geological Oceanography?
Danny: holy big words
Oversized Bean: pff
Oversized Bean: study of the Earth's history underwater and the shift in the Titanic plates underwater and how it creates underwater mountains and trenches
Danny: oh my God you're nerd not even a dork
Oversized Bean: eeeeeeh
Danny: no shade well no just a little
Danny: we both like the most unexplored territories of life that's fine
Oversized Bean: hahahahaha true
Danny: no one knows what's at the bottom of the Mariana trench and nobody knows what happens inside of a black hole
Oversized Bean: the only thing they could guarantee is that certified death for both of them
Danny: YEP
Oversized Bean: Did you just snort out loud
Danny: No that was a sneeze
Oversized Bean: mhm-
Danny: Don't look at me or you will make me laugh
Oversized Bean: Your friends are giving you strange looks
Danny: I'll live
Oversized Bean: Lancer is judging you
Danny: as long as you don't look at me we are fine
Oversized Bean: as cool as a sea cucumber
Danny: ....
Danny: you didn't hear that
Oversized Bean: "Mr.fenton are you okay?" I think we all heard that
Danny: NO YOU DIDN'T
Oversized Bean: Were you always this easy to make laugh?
Danny: it's just the idea of you being an absolute nerd this entire time is so funny that now every time that you just make a joke I can't help it
Oversized Bean: my inconsistency is what's making you laugh I sea
Danny: ....
Oversized Bean: you're going to get detention if you keep going
Danny: FUCK YOU
Oversized Bean: I did nothin
Danny: like hell you didn't
Oversized Bean: :)
Danny: >:/
5:40 p.m.
Oversized Bean: Did you get home alright?
Danny: I told you I was fine earlier didn't I
Oversized Bean: Yeah but
Danny: But what?
Oversized Bean: I heard that you may have gotten slammed into a locker earlier but one of my teammates
Danny: I'm a lot sturdier than I look
Oversized Bean: Hm
Danny: worried because I was already pre-injured
Oversized Bean: yes
Danny: I promise you I'm fine nothing compares to getting slammed into concrete brick buildings by a grown adult with enhanced strength and magical powers
Oversized Bean: O h
Danny: yeah you guys really don't knock as hard as they do but I appreciate the concern I'm fine genuinely I have rapid healing
Danny: unless it's poison but I highly doubt any of you guys have anything effective against me
Oversized Bean: has a human tried poisoning you before??
Danny: aside from my parents cooking no but there is nothing stopping someone from probably attempting it in the future
Oversized Bean: okay I have several questions
Danny: their food could give anyone food poisoning and radiation poisoning at the same time
Danny: I wouldn't put it past Vlad Masters to try roping in people to kill me
Danny: anyone who tries can succeed at murder
Oversized Bean: I have no more questions
Danny: HA
Danny: easily predictable
Oversized Bean: Hey I don't think I'm that easy or am I
Danny: once i figured out what exactly is your problem yeah you pretty much are
Oversized Bean: oh
Danny: no offense
Oversized Bean: no i see it
Danny: but for the most part I would say it has been a good first day
Danny: obviously no slacking but a good day
Oversized Bean: I got about three questions from Paulina because of the whole Wes thing
Danny: that is to be expected as she would probably have a rage fit not knowing that someone was about to get flamed
Oversized Bean: it was in between that and her finally breaking up with me?
Danny: I beg your finest pardons?!
Oversized Bean: yeah I've been kind of waiting for this
Danny: you're okay with breaking up with her
Danny: oh
Danny: okay
Oversized Bean: I get it she is pretty much everyone's favorite crush and The It Girl but dating her is a lot
Danny: I mean I get it kind of because of you know freshman year
Danny: but she broke up with you and you didn't seem so upset about it you wanted her to break up with you but you didn't want to be the one to break up with her?
Oversized Bean: to be honest Paulina is great as a friend but partner is again a lot
Oversized Bean: honestly I thought she would have broken up with me last year but she didn't and it just didn't feel right
Danny: oh wow
Danny: do the other a-listers know this or am I the first one you're telling?
Oversized Bean: ah shit sorry I didn't mean to trauma dump be technically you're the first one to know
Danny: no it's all cool I mean I wouldn't have expected me being the first option to do so given how new this is but you seem to need an outlet and one that isn't judgment
Danny: again no offense
Danny: the a-listers seem to be kind of intense when it comes to the stuff
Oversized Bean: yeah they are and they're great friends but everything else is just not it right now and I really don't feel like talking to them
Oversized Bean: Paulina will probably end up breaking the news to the girls anyway
Oversized Bean: and then the guys will learn from their girlfriends and I'll go back to being the only single person in the friend group
Danny: no harm no foul honestly take it strides as now we're both twinning in that department
Oversized Bean: I thought you and Manson were dating?
Danny: with the lifestyle I live no
Danny: take it as an also Sam is great as a friend but as a partner probably the last thing I wanted to do
Danny: plus I'm pretty sure Tucker has a crush on her
Oversized Bean: Foley is always the unexpected one
Danny: that's what I thought too especially with the whole meat versus plant the buckle the two of them have but I'm pretty sure that's just their way of flirting
Oversized Bean: as long as she doesn't change the menu again I'm not arguing
Danny: amen to that
Danny: grass on a piece of toast was the worst idea ever and I don't know who approved of that
Oversized Bean: the school board apparently
Danny: meanwhile the teachers were having a meat buffet in the staff room
Oversized Bean: wait for real what the hell
Danny: gasp he swears
Oversized Bean: a mild one not like you
Danny: only so hardcore when I'm either tired or mad
Oversized Bean: I'm assuming yesterday was both
Danny: with the double whammy of me thinking that you were blackmailing me
Oversized Bean: I would never do that and I would take my entire like livelihood on that
Danny: good because technically you have
Danny: steak your entire livelihood
Oversized Bean: yes because apparently I'm going to be hunted if something were to happen
Oversized Bean: I don't want to be hunted but I also would never unless somebody was too possess me which I hope not
Danny: you know what I'm going to get you something so we can avoid that actually good catch
Oversized Bean: wait avoid being possessed?
Danny: yeah I'm pretty sure there's something for the in the realms I would have to just ask or maybe I own it I don't know
Oversized Bean: you can just get stuff to stop other ghosts from possessing humans?
Danny: I mean it might be a limited supply and since you're holding pretty much a well-guarded secret that is my entire afterlife I think I would want to avoid you getting hurt or possessed
Oversized Bean: fair enough
Danny: were you trying to think of something else?
Oversized Bean: I mean if it was an unlimited supply then it would stop a lot of the problems happening in Amity Park
Danny: I mean it could if that was true but even then some people just deserve it
Danny: a lesson than save them
Oversized Bean: do you let it happen sometimes?
Danny: I told you I wasn't a hero
Danny: I just want to protect my haunt and sometimes that includes all the people in it even if some of them are assholes
Danny: there are some people that deserve it
Danny: if it scares them out of doing the shitty stuff that they do that I think it's kind of worth it
Oversized Bean: was I one of them?
Danny: now why would I tell you that? Though with that kind of question I think you already know the answer.
Oversized Bean: oh
Danny: I did warn you that any fantasy that you may have thought about Phantom are just fantasies and that reality is drastically different
Oversized Bean: you did but it also explains a lot about you
Oversized Bean: not exactly the morally white but more morally grey
Danny: after dealing with people for almost 3 years on both sides yeah the moral High ground starts to wane a bit
Oversized Bean: but it's not like you're weighing people's lives you're still helping them you're just making sure that the ones that cause the most damage still get the karma they deserve
Danny: what you said is a bit of a contradiction as overshadowing a human does have the chance of taking the humans life but yeah I guess so
Oversized Bean: wait what
Danny: if the human starts to lose its humanity while the ghost is overshadowing them and adding extra limbs or stuff they're gone once that transformation is over
Oversized Bean: OH so
Danny: what gets left behind is a husk and eventually a few days afterwards it dies permanently
Oversized Bean: ghosts are a lot more terrifying than I thought they were
Danny: they are I never said that they were good I just said that I like hanging out with some of them
Danny: both sides are insanely messy and I deal with most ghosts to make sure that doesn't happen but I'm also just one person
Danny: which is why Wisp and wraith usually are the ones to assist if something like that were to happen
Danny: if my hands are too full
Oversized Bean: it's good to have help as I think you would have probably overloaded and exploded by now
Danny: oh absolutely I have had moments where i could have crossed the line but thankfully I didn't
Oversized Bean: thank God for that
Danny: there's also Huntress who occasionally likes helping
Oversized Bean: do I know who that is?
Danny: Hahaha yeah
Oversized Bean: oh no
Danny: she would probably hate me saying this but she also doesn't know who I am so eh
Oversized Bean: okay maybe don't tell me
Danny: come on I know you're curious
Oversized Bean: yeah but I also don't want her to like skin me alive
Danny: you're human for the most part
Oversized Bean: what do you mean by that
Danny: don't worry about it
Danny: what you should worry about is one of the other phantoms coming to see you randomly
Oversized Bean: Why???
Danny: because I had to tell them I work with them and they're my family
Oversized Bean: wait like your actual family or
Danny: wisp is a clone and wraith is me from the future. Technically they're both me but they're their own person so family
Oversized Bean: oh that leaves me with several more questions
Danny: Wisp was created by Vlad by on purpose but also by accident because he was trying to make the perfect clone of me and she was the only one to survive and is very much not me
Danny: Wraith is a whole complicated set of solutions and problems coming to life as he's the result of the butterfly effect. We do not know why but after a lot of arguing and his extensive time in a soup can he has come around to helping out as his parole time
Oversized Bean: he was a villain wait they were both villains unless wisp was a runaway
Danny: no they were both my problem at some point but now they aren't and they live in a house on the outskirts of town to just avoid people in general and Vlad
Danny: as Vlad seems to be the source of both of their problems actually yeah we do not like that fruit loop here
Oversized Bean: I have a feeling that all things just lead back to this man having problems
Danny: oh absolutely I wouldn't have died and came back to life if it wasn't for the fact that he was immensely in love with my mother while in college and insanely jealous of my dad getting with her
Oversized Bean: holy butterfly effect what
Danny: you do not understand how much I wanted to rant about this man just someone who doesn't already know
Danny: yes he is the biggest issue everybody has
Oversized Bean: I can see that now and I'm sure there are a lot more
Danny: he almost caused the end of the world several times and technically is the reason why Wraith timeline doesn't exist anymore
Oversized Bean: so if he was to ever win
Danny: the end of the world
Oversized Bean: I don't like that I know that now I will never be able to look at him the same
Danny: hahaha you did ask technically
Oversized Bean: yea
Danny: anyway I'm going to go beat up a pillow and then go to bed
Oversized Bean: this early?
Danny: it's going to be a nap and then I'm going to wake up in the middle of the night and probably finish my homework all is good
Oversized Bean: well then have a lovely nap
Danny: raaaaa

Oversized Bean, Danny November 12th 9:30 p.m.
______________________________
Oversized Bean: do you think if they sent the jellyfish up into space it would die?
Danny: Oh?
Danny: I am glad you have gotten more comfortable to ask me a random questions but this is not what I was expecting
Oversized Bean: we have small conversations everyday but it's usually some sort of rent or ramble in between our daily lives so I thought maybe I could just start one randomly
Danny: well I approve
Danny: also to answer your question it would die because the water would boil over before freezing killing the jellyfish
Oversized Bean: oh sad
Oversized Bean: it was mostly thinking about it as in a sense of since the jellyfish really doesn't have much of anything going on that it could probably survive if under the right condition
Danny: okay in this hypothetical if that was to be the case and it was under like the most advanced tech Maybe
Danny: of course there's always the option of magic
Oversized Bean: magic
Danny: you know technically I am a magical creature
Oversized Bean: right ghosts are technically Magic
Danny: that in Eldritch abominations tend to fall in that category
Oversized Bean: pardon?
Danny: don't worry too much about it
Oversized Bean: the more you say that the more I do worry
Danny: nahhh
Danny: well hypothetically we could try Magic I know a few people who would be down for that
Oversized Bean: taking a random jellyfish out of the ocean and taking it to space??
Oversized Bean: wouldn't you like double die if you go to space
Danny: fun fact I don't need to breathe
Oversized Bean: it's incredibly cold in space as you said you would probably freeze no?
Danny: nope I will be fine I also have ghost biology as Phantom which includes being immune to the cold
Oversized Bean: is there literally anything that you can't do
Danny: take a vacation because Vlad is prepping every 5 minutes
Danny: speaking of which I actually have to do something
Danny: how strange would it be if I just show up to your house as Phantom
Oversized Bean: HUH
Oversized Bean: WHY??
Danny: I need to give you something
Oversized Bean: I mean could you give it to me at school tomorrow?
Danny: I could but also if I do it now it drops the chances so it would be easier if I just gave it to you now instead of later
Oversized Bean: drops the chances of what??
Danny: don't worry about it can I just show up or do you really think it's going to be a problem if me just showing up
Oversized Bean: I mean if you are quick about it maybe my parents are a tad
Danny: strict?
Oversized Bean: religious.
Danny: OH
Oversized Bean: YEAH THEY KIND OF THINK THAT YOU'RE A DEMON FROM HELL SO HAHAHA
Danny: Pff I have met actual demons not that bad
Oversized Bean: I'm sorry what
Danny: did you think the Ghost Zone was just a bunch of ghosts?
Danny: nah that is just a small part of what's on the other side of the portal it is just in random people's basements
Danny: I say random people as if I don't know the owners of both portals
Oversized Bean: so there's portals to the place where ghosts are coming from
Danny: yes as one of them is in my parents and the other one is with the evil vampire
Oversized Bean: of course he has one because why not
Danny: yes I'm conditioning you into believing this man is pure evil
Oversized Bean: no real conditioning when I have eyes and can just see him
Danny: HA
Danny: yeah most of the good problems come out of whichever hole and depending on the circumstances and the teaming with Vlad if they come out his pocket hole
Oversized Bean: of course
Danny: though I've only known like two ghosts that would willingly work with him but that's because they're both assholes
Oversized Bean: fair enough
Danny: the ones that come out of the Fenton portal are either here to hang out which means that you don't see them about 75% of the time or new and don't know how things run around here make a mess I deal with them and send them back
Oversized Bean: that seems like an efficient plan
Danny: yes but we are getting distracted now the jellyfish thing
Oversized Bean: oh god
Danny: I can ask you about the jellyfish thing in person I am flying towards your house by the way
Oversized Bean: OH
Danny: don't worry I'll just leave it in your room
Oversized Bean: OH NO PLEASE NO
Danny: Okay? That doesn't sound suspicious I don't
Oversized Bean: eh it's not clean and I can just meet you outside
Oversized Bean: on my balcony
Danny: of course you have a balcony
Oversized Bean: I'm still technically in a-lister
Danny: Yeah but you seem so out of place in that group now
Oversized Bean: everybody seems to have their own agenda it will eventually make sense maybe
Danny: maybe
Oversized Bean: hopefully
Danny: nice PJs
Oversized Bean: I- where are you?
Danny: watching from a distance as you're very Winnie the Pooh PJs are standing out
Oversized Bean: Hey just show yourself please this is more embarrassing than I need to be as it's already late
Danny: ehe yeah yeah I'm coming
11:30 p.m.
Oversized Bean: so bracelet
Danny: yes bracelet
Oversized Bean: I didn't ask why you were here but why didn't you just say it was a bracelet for the ghost thing that we talked about
Danny: because I'm extra
Oversized Bean: ha
Oversized Bean: where did you even find something like this?
Danny: I kind of won this creepy looking Palace thing and it was in there
Danny: I did ask about its side effects and making sure I'm not giving you a cursed item
Danny: the last thing we need is a repeat of Paulina the Dragon
Oversized Bean: I'm surprised she lived since you know the whole modify human body thing
Danny: that's because she was changed by a curse amulet and not a ghost
Danny: magic is weird but death magic is a surefire way of getting someone killed as it should only be used by the Dead
Oversized Bean: fair enough
Oversized Bean: does a person you ask explain how it was supposed to work
Danny: as long as it's visible to any ghosts within the area it should deter them
Oversized Bean: that sounds crazy powerful for someone like me to have
Danny: it's a guarantee to keep any ghosts from overshadowing you and that's all it really needs to do
Oversized Bean: cool
Oversized Bean: it doesn't really look out of place I mean I would have to try to make sure my parents don't see it but at school it looks so authentically real they probably think my parents got it for me
Danny: oh definitely that is actual gold and silver
Oversized Bean: wait seriously
Danny: creepy Palace from a threat to the planet so yes he was also technically a king and apparently all his riches became my riches so idk I think so
Oversized Bean: I don't think you realize that you single-handedly became the most richest person in school
Danny: well yeah but it's not like I'm going to flex it I don't really care and also I don't need people trying to be my friend because I am richer than them
Danny: also because I'm pretty sure that Sam would want me to use the entire thing to like cure the planet or something
Danny: not that I wouldn't but at the same time I would have me need to convert all of the money and it would look suspicious for a random 17 year old to just go to a bank and convert money like that without raising questions
Oversized Bean: right because it's not like you can say that you won it from a ghost without looking suspicious or crazy
Danny: exactly
Danny: so I just don't tell anybody I have it well besides you but that's because you asked where the bracelet came from
Oversized Bean: it's a very cool looking bracelet
Danny: and I'm glad that you enjoyed the design but please remember the original reason you have it
Oversized Bean: I won't die or say something I shouldn't
Danny: right good I am going to go to bed now and you should to
Oversized Bean: good night Danny
Danny: night dash

Oversized Bean, Danny November 19th 1:30 p.m.
______________________________
Oversized Bean: I have a question
Danny: back to this again
Danny: you can just ask the question dude
Oversized Bean: who did you ask about this bracelet?
Danny: technically my mentor why?
Oversized Bean: well I just ran into a ghost
Danny: Are you okay? Who was it? I swear to God if it didn't work.
Oversized Bean: no it did work well not in the way that I thought it would
Danny: Dash
Oversized Bean: the strange looking knight guy he did not give me his name
Danny: did he have purple flame looking hair you can barely see his face but you can see the color of his eyes?
Oversized Bean: Yea!
Danny: that is the spirit of Halloween
Oversized Bean: it's November-
Danny: don't worry about that
Danny: what happened between the two of you?
Danny: in fact let me come find you
Oversized Bean: no it's okay he's already left
Oversized Bean: and I'm fine it's just what he said was weird
Danny: explain
Oversized Bean: I was just taking my books out of my locker for the next period and he just showed up. But first I thought he was going to attack me given that he was fucking huge.
Danny: holy shit did my swearing rub off on you
Oversized Bean: probably but that's not the point
Danny: right carry on
Oversized Bean: I freaked out and I made sure that the bracelet was visible and he just looked me up and down.
Oversized Bean: "I see so you're him" did a weird little bow and then just dipped
Danny: huh
Oversized Bean: that's what I said it was very weird and now I'm confused and I'm worried
Danny: CW said that they would avoid you at all costs but that was not what I was expecting
Oversized Bean: so I'm not crazy for thinking that was incredibly strange since it kind of just contradicted everything that was supposed to happen right
Danny: unless it's supposed to be some sort of weird verification and it just starts like this?
Oversized Bean: I DON'T KNOW
Danny: okay don't panic I am going to go check with my mentor again and make sure everything is in order. This might be a one-time thing since the spirit of Halloween is kind of weird
Danny: I'll handle it
Oversized Bean: cool cool I hope I don't die
Danny: why do you think you will??
Oversized Bean: I don't know random guy just showed up in a suit of armor and a blaze of fire and a horse and he looks like one of the four horsemen and I have religious trauma
Danny: I
Danny: oh my God I forgot about that
Oversized Bean: FORGOT ABOUT WHAT
Danny: I mean multiple things here but for the most part that your family is religious
Danny: technically and this is a lot here he is death or what you humans think is death as one of the four horsemen
Oversized Bean: wait what
Danny: oh my God I could hear that message
Oversized Bean: DANNY
Danny: RIGHT RIGHT
Danny: so a lot of mythology is based off of experiences and things that people have seen and also the infinite realms is huge and every religion does technically exist by some capacity
Danny: Fright Night is technically one of the four horsemen as I'm pretty sure I asked about it once to him and he told me that it was one of those nights where he and his friends were just vibing and people misunderstood it
Danny: of course that's not word for word what he said but you know what I mean
Oversized Bean: so I just met one of the four horsemen and I could have died
Danny: again you weren't going to die as that's not really what he does
Danny: he may look like that but he is not dead he's the spirit of fear and Halloween
Danny: he actually just gives you nightmares and if there's nightmares are so frightening you die from a heart attack I can see why people would think it's death
Oversized Bean: so you just know the guy
Danny: I know a lot of people
Oversized Bean: I have never realized how incredibly confusing it is to be a friend to you
Danny: given that you're the only one that knows a lot
Oversized Bean: my insanity is just in the roof
Danny: you were warned and you didn't take my warning at face value
Oversized Bean: I did take it at face value I just didn't think it would be this bad
Danny: are you reconsidering
Oversized Bean: NO
Danny: haha no harm in asking
Oversized Bean: complete harm in asking as it kills your self-esteem
Danny: I didn't realize we were at the calling out phase
Oversized Bean: I am in too deep for you to get rid of me now
Danny: clearly
Danny: but hey you have been making both progress and very funny memories for me
Oversized Bean: you find my fishy sense of humor interesting
Danny: I like puns I don't know what you want from me
Oversized Bean: don't blow this fish out of proportion
Danny: I knew I got a strange side eye for my sister
Oversized Bean: I thought she was off to college
Danny: she is in college she just came back home early for Thanksgiving
Oversized Bean: Oo
Oversized Bean: that must be nice
Danny: not really given those to my parents are still trying to hunt down Phantom and that the last two times we had Thanksgiving the turkey came to life
Oversized Bean: o h
Danny: yeah it's not really a tradition it's more of a food War in which the food comes to life and tries taking over the house
Oversized Bean: what the hell
Danny: Just happens
Oversized Bean: well it shouldn't????
Danny: pff anyway I'm ditching class for a bit to see what Cw says. Don't combust while im gone
Oversized Bean: I can do that??
Danny: Just slang geez
Oversized Bean: No one says that??
Danny: I do all the time!
Oversized Bean: to Manson and Foley yeah but thats it
Danny: okay true
Oversized Bean: :/
Danny: Ha
Danny: Anyway im off
Oversized Bean: good luck
9:30 p.m.
Danny: I'm back
Danny: Damn its late
Oversized Bean: late? LATE? UNDERSTATEMENT
Danny: Woo chill did something happen while I was gone
Oversized Bean: Aside a hoard of little green things following me around no
Danny: Oh blob ghosts
Danny: They have weird habits of attaching themselves to people
Oversized Bean: one second they weren't there the next they were
Danny: Yea blob ghosts are usually invisible to people, it's even weirder than people seeing full ghosts
Oversized Bean: should I be worried?
Danny: Nah they are harmless
Oversized Bean: Am i being indoctrinated into the ghost community?
Danny: you make it sound like a cult
Oversized Bean: am i wrong?
Danny: Not really indoctrinated but more acknowledgement
Oversized Bean: more wise words from your mentor
Danny: He said only Fright would act like that but it should work as intended for ghosts from the realms
Oversized Bean: which means?
Danny: The only ones it doesn't affect would be the phantoms and much to my dismay, Vlad
Oversized Bean: I mean that narrows it down to 1%
Danny: I really rather it be 0 but fuck it we will have to make sure Vlad never gets you alone
Oversized Bean: that just sounds wrong
Danny: it's how he is.
Danny: everything about him sounds and looks wrong
Oversized Bean: I'm going to okay though
Danny: Yeah. I promise.
Oversized Bean: That's nice at least
Danny: Welp time to sneak home
Oversized Bean: Good luck
Danny: ✌️

Oversized Bean, Danny November 28th 11:30 a.m.

Oversized Bean: Whales would have been a better idea for mural
Danny: Why whales? The plant options are just fine.
Oversized Bean: ....
Oversized Bean: Who is this?
Danny: Wdym?
Oversized Bean: You aren't Danny who are you?
Danny: Idk what you're talking about dude
Oversized Bean: I'm not dumb Danny wouldn't have asked about the whales
Danny: Well crap
Oversized Bean: and he would have actually sworn there
Oversized Bean: Sam Manson and Tucker Foley.
Danny: WELL SINCE YOU GOT US ALL FIGURED OUT MYSTERY MAN WHO ARE YOU??
Oversized Bean: None of your business give Danny his phone back
Danny: Oh come on even a little hint wouldn't hurt
Oversized Bean: It would and could give Danny his phone back
Danny: Ugh you two were made for each other refusing to tell us anything
Oversized Bean: Because it's not your business unless he wants to tell you???
Danny: Boooo
Danny: Fess up who you are and we will give it back
Oversized Bean: Danny didn't give his phone up willingly so you stole it didn't you?
Danny: Just answer the question
Oversized Bean: I rather not
Danny: you been texting for weeks yet all mentions of your name are gone here so come on
Oversized Bean: he deleted them because he knows you people. So no.
Danny: Suenamahdnebj—
Oversized Bean: Whatever Karma came to you was deserved
Danny: Fucking knew this was gonna happen
Oversized Bean: Hi
Danny: Hey sorry about them. Need to handle this I'll text you later
Oversized Bean: All good
Danny: Also Yeah whales would have been a perfect idea, maybe with those little sea bunnies you showed me
Oversized Bean: You see the vision!
Danny: Of course I do. Brb
12:30 p.m.
Danny: What are you doing for lunch?
Oversized Bean: Sitting at my usual table? Something up?
Danny: Wanna join me by under the bleachers?
Oversized Bean: MWHGSBA
Oversized Bean: For lunch?
Danny: Yea? Are you good? Did you drop your phone?
Oversized Bean: No! Yes! I mean
Oversized Bean: I can slip away! Yea I can join you.
Danny: Cool.
Danny: It will just be us btw idk if you are cool with that?
Oversized Bean: Kwksnmzmskzn
Danny: :/
Danny: Are you sure you are good?
Oversized Bean: Just fine! Peachy even!
Oversized Bean: Did um something happen with the phone stealers?
Danny: I'm annoyed, Sam doesn't listen and Tucker didn't even try to pretend he was sorry.
Danny: I told them give me time and yet they went ahead with it anyway. So I'd rather spend my lunch with someone civilized and listen to your whale rant over "not telling us about your new friend"
Oversized Bean: Honestly I thought you would have told them
Danny: Why?
Oversized Bean: Well it's me and they are your best friends
Danny: your point?
Oversized Bean: I was your nightmare freshman year and they hated me more than anything
Danny: If I had told them we wouldn't be having this conversation. They would have tried persuading me out of it.
Danny: I am my own person so I can make my own choices
Danny: I choice to give you a chance and you have not failed in that department. You've improved enough that it's noticeable. Berating you for past mistakes and throwing you to the wolves will not help you.
Danny: if this was a mistake I can only blame myself and I can own up to that but you prove time and time again its not just by letting go of the crap persona and being your self
Oversized Bean: I
Oversized Bean: Oh
Oversized Bean: Um thank you
Danny: Your welcome
Danny: So lunch?
Oversized Bean: Yes! I'm coming
Danny: 👍
5:25 p.m.
Oversized Bean: Wraith is huge I don't know what I did but he is just starting at me
Danny: Remember he is also technically me and his dash did not redeem himself
Oversized Bean: Oh
Oversized Bean: O h
Oversized Bean: He hasn't said anything just staring from the woods as I'm on the sidewalk
Danny: Is he ghost?
Oversized Bean: yes
Oversized Bean: OH GODHOUFBBFDA-
Danny: DASH????
Oversized Bean: Chill out I didn't hurt the kid
Danny: Dan give him his phone back and leave him alone
Oversized Bean: he fainted
Danny: DAN
Oversized Bean: I didn't even do anything yet
Danny: Uh huh?
Danny: Where are you?
Oversized Bean: I can take him home whelp
Danny: I rather do it myself
Oversized Bean: because of your attachment
Danny: No?!
Oversized Bean: You would have the lie better than that if you think I don't see what you are doing.
Danny: Please shut up and just tell me where you are.
Oversized Bean: Delivering him to his house.
Danny: Wraith
Oversized Bean: Phantom
Danny: tsk
Danny: Drop him off in his room and leave
Oversized Bean: that was already the plan
Danny: Invisibility as his parents think we are demons
Oversized Bean: Well I wouldn't be so opposed to that idea
Danny: Don't even start
Oversized Bean: You are a buzz kill little brother
Danny: And you are a pain in the ass big brother
Oversized Bean: odd room
Danny: Dan
Oversized Bean: Yes yes he is delivered safely. I will him and his device be.
Danny: Good
6:15 p.m.
Oversized Bean: I'M HOME?!
Danny: Good morning sleeping beauty
Oversized Bean: That was so embarrassing
Danny: Mildly funny but mostly concerned
Danny: Are you okay?
Oversized Bean: Im fine but he is also your family, did you think he wouldn't be?
Danny: No harm in checking
Oversized Bean: Oh god he came into my room didn't he
Danny: to drop you off safely
Oversized Bean: he didn't say anything right?
Danny: You can scroll up I promise you nothing funny
Oversized Bean: oh he is going to kill me when we are alone again
Danny: No he won't.
Danny: He wouldn't dare to
Danny: You are fine Dash
Oversized Bean: He probably thinks I'm a freak and since he is literally a doomsday weapon he will end me first
Danny: Dash
Oversized Bean: I'm sorry for being odd or strange or—
Oversized Bean: The ground shook
Danny: Fuck
Danny: Ghost incoming
Danny: You. Stop freaking out.
Danny: We will talk about this later.
Oversized Bean: I
Danny: Later
Oversized Bean: Okay
Danny: Don't go outside
Oversized Bean: Okay
11:59 p.m.
Danny: Are you up?

Danny: Good night Dash.

Danny: If you weren't avoiding me it wouldn't have been necessary
Oversized Bean: I'm not
Danny: you haven't texted me since last week so yes avoiding me
Oversized Bean: I don't have anything to say
Danny: Yes you do
Danny: You definitely do or else you wouldn't be distracted.
Oversized Bean: I'm not?!
Danny: Literally watched you get hit in the face with a football that usually catch
Oversized Bean: You saw that
Danny: Hard not too
Danny: Just talk to me Dash
Oversized Bean: I can't
Danny: Why not?
Danny: We were doing so well
Oversized Bean: It's just because of that I can't
Oversized Bean: I just
Oversized Bean: I shouldn't have let this idea get to my head. That we could be friends without me being weird about it.
Danny: What on earth are you talking about
Oversized Bean: Its wrong, creepy and your brother saw it all. He probably told you. He definitely should have since it's not normal and I should just stop talking to you.
Danny: The logic is all over the map and making 0 sense here
Danny: Dash if Dan had told me anything why would I be bugging you if you think I would have the worst reaction to it
Oversized Bean: I DON'T KNOW
Oversized Bean: I learn something new about you every day I wouldn't put it past you to do that too
Danny: Dash
Oversized Bean: What?
Danny: Just talk to me. I don't care about anyone secret unless it comes from the source which btw he didn't tell me anything. I can't figure this out if you are just throwing random pieces of a puzzle at me.
Danny: So please. I want this to work. It's been a good month until now. Did I do something wrong to give you this wrong impression?
Oversized Bean: NO! Never.
Danny: Then?
Oversized Bean: I
Oversized Bean: Um
Danny: Take your time I'm watching
Oversized Bean: Okay
Oversized Bean: I know it's not normal to like sneak pictures without asking but I always wanted to get pictures of Phantom yk?
Oversized Bean: but at some point it stopped being picture of just action and more candid ones.
Oversized Bean: then it stopped being just phantom
Oversized Bean: it started getting more frequent when I took them
Danny: you have pictures of me?
Oversized Bean: as phantom
Danny: and Fenton?
Oversized Bean: yea...
Danny: together
Oversized Bean: too many of them
Danny: too many how?
Oversized Bean: boxes?
Danny: oh wow
Oversized Bean: I'm sorry. I know I should have told you. I should have stopped after finding out about the whole identity and DEFINITELY before you said okay but I didn't. If anything I just got worse and it's weird and creepy and I will completely understand if you want to cut ties now. Ot if you hate me.
Danny: ....
Danny: This
Danny: Okay Dash no I'm not mad or anything
Oversized Bean: You aren't???
Danny: No.
Danny: is it a bit strange? Yes
Danny: I am flattered I would be a liar to say otherwise
Danny: but it's the way you describe it that makes it seem odd to me
Oversized Bean: Odd how?
Danny: "it got worse" once we started talking to each regular as friends?
Oversized Bean: yeah
Danny: Okay question before I speak my mind
Oversized Bean: Yeah?
Danny: Do you have a crush on me?
Oversized Bean: WHAT
Danny: Was I wrong?
Oversized Bean: I??
Oversized Bean: No— but I didn't think I was obvious
Danny: Even if you were it wouldn't have mattered but that's besides the point
Oversized Bean: Wait no run that back?
Danny: I think I have rubbed off on you in more than one sense
Oversized Bean: Could we run it back Danny I just
Oversized Bean: Why was the crush question relevant? You barely acknowledge it.
Danny: I was getting there
Oversized Bean: Were you?
Danny: Hush
Oversized Bean: ..
Danny: When ghosts get attached to people it becomes like their goal to make them happy or keep them close. And when a non human rubs off on a human it creates this thing called a pseudo core where it's like a fake ghost soul. Resonating the same affects to the human that a ghost would have.
Oversized Bean: You are saying I have one of these fake souls??
Danny: Which was my fault
Danny: I'm sorry
Oversized Bean: Wait I have it and only me?
Danny: Because I found you interesting
Oversized Bean: Interesting like?
Danny: A crush Dash. I said it from the beginning.
Oversized Bean: WAIT THIS WHOLE TIME?!
Danny: I didn't think I was shy about it
Oversized Bean: But you
Oversized Bean: I was terrible to you
Danny: Yes but people can still like terrible people
Danny: You changed and seeing that the feeling was mutual I don't see the problem
Oversized Bean: So the pictures
Danny: Keeping me close I see
Oversized Bean: Oh god
Danny: But I do kinda relax my intentions weren't completely
Danny: clear
Oversized Bean: NOT EVEN CLOSE
Danny: Yeah my bad
Oversized Bean: Ghost culture somehow smoothed your human brain
Danny: It's more instincts but yeah
Oversized Bean: what other hint am I missing
Danny: the bracelet
Oversized Bean: What about it
Danny: Marking my territory.
Oversized Bean: Your
Danny: sorry I mean letting other ghost know you have a ghost protector and they can't take you.
Oversized Bean: ghosts are possessive just like they are obsessed aren't they
Danny: we are.
Oversized Bean: Welp now i feel stupid
Danny: If this is too weird just tell me
Oversized Bean: nope im weird your weird we are gonna be weird together as I am done running from myself
Danny: Too many days staring at a left on read message
Oversized Bean: Sorry
Danny: NOPE
Danny: none of that
Danny: Your problem was my fault and my problem is your fault we are are now in the trenches
Oversized Bean: the Mariana trench
Danny: lmao
Oversized Bean: so you really aren't mad
Danny: no I'm not
Danny: i would be a hypocrite if I was
Danny: as i literally tagged you without you knowing
Oversized Bean: geez we are somehow the healthiest unhealthiest
Danny: probably
Oversized Bean: how long did you yk
Danny: I don't know Dash, ask me that again
Oversized Bean: you are a tease
Danny: perhaps but I like my questions straightforward
Oversized Bean: despite not being straightforward yourself
Danny: Well I'm not straight so that's a start
Oversized Bean: omg
Danny: the question
Oversized Bean: How long were you crushing for?
Danny: 8th grade
Oversized Bean: GEEZ
Oversized Bean: I was so bad
Danny: I know
Danny: I didn't care
Danny: Honestly during freshman year is where it got bad
Danny: Just the thought of hey he looks at me, focused on me
Danny: yes it was fucked but holy hell was it a mind melt
Danny: weird love is genetic and my parents are proof
Oversized Bean: I
Oversized Bean: oh wow
Danny: What about you?
Oversized Bean: The crush?
Danny: development yes
Oversized Bean: Um well it was a bit both freshman year and sophomore year
Oversized Bean: like the odd parasocial idea of phantom lives in every fans mind but just Fenton, the confidence and sass always caught me off guard and then it just snowballed from there as the two crushes became one and im just a mess
Oversized Bean: but now that I think about it, you always been a little bit protective of me
Oversized Bean: Like with your own family and just other ghosts in general
Danny: special treatment
Danny: exclusive treatment
Oversized Bean: So we like each other? Great!
Oversized Bean: what now
Danny: Date?
Oversized Bean: This feels like a dream am I dreaming
Danny: No
Danny: I haven't seen nocturne so definitely not
Oversized Bean: who
Danny: ghost of dreams
Oversized Bean: oh wow
Danny: yea
Danny: anyway date if you want to
Oversized Bean: YES I WANT TOO
Oversized Bean: Um oh
Danny: what
Oversized Bean: how are gonna deal with yk
Oversized Bean: our friends
Danny: ugh i forgot
Oversized Bean: obviously not the phantom bit but everything else about us?
Danny: this is going to be a pain
Danny: another going to try to mean well but at the same time no
Danny: control vs. forgiveness
Oversized Bean: Yea
Danny: we can definitely win doesn't mean that we're going to be ending up keeping those relationships though
Oversized Bean: I think your side might have a bigger problem than mine
Danny: how so
Oversized Bean: they probably not only be mad by the whole secret friendship alliance and most of the fact that Manson hates me
Oversized Bean: well she hates a listers in general but I know for a fact that she hates Paulina the worst
Oversized Bean: but that's not the only secret on that side because we also have you know the ghost thing
Oversized Bean: I know you said you would never tell them but it just seems like so much stress
Danny: I have been dealing with their suspicions for years now so I get what you mean
Danny: I wouldn't put it past them for being done with my BS
Danny: but also I don't care not about the ghost thing but about this. This is important to me just as it's important to you and I value you a lot more as someone who I'm able to share that truth with.
Danny: yes they're my friends doesn't mean I'm always comfortable with their choices
Danny: I wouldn't say that we're the best of friends to each other, hell I wouldn't even say I am a good friend to them sometimes but I'm pretty sure we all just silently agreed with that
Danny: we are kids and we just built this relationship off of the idea of weirdness
Danny: do I wish things were different? yes. do I wish that I could tell them about the ghost thing? also yes. but will I? no
Oversized Bean: I guess you could say it would be nice for you to have more people but I got it. The world really is just a dangerous place where not everything is sunshine and rainbow
Danny: the only rainbow I see here is you
Oversized Bean: HEY
Danny: :3
Oversized Bean: SINCE I'M BEING CALLED A RAINBOW FOR SOME REASON
Oversized Bean: I guess we just learn as we can
Danny: yeah actually I did have one question
Oversized Bean: oh look I'm rubbing off on you
Danny: har har
Danny: that day a few weeks ago where I came back from the fight I think it was the day after we first started talking. You asked about one of your teammates slamming me into a locker
Oversized Bean: yeah what about it
Danny: what did you do to that teammate
Oversized Bean: huh
Danny: I got an apology the day after there was no way you didn't talk to him so I'm curious what happened because he definitely didn't have that black eye before he slammed me
Oversized Bean: karma and gravity
Danny: uh huh
Danny: does gravity have some sort of name to it or
Oversized Bean: you know the weather is really nice outside
Danny: pff
Danny: want to have lunch together
Oversized Bean: yeah I can go for that
Danny: lunch as boyfriends nice
Oversized Bean: VKDYSUCHYSH
Danny: Oop

Oversized Bean: good morning to you too
Baked Bean: why were you up at 2:00 a.m.
Oversized Bean: couldn't sleep
Baked Bean: something wrong?
Oversized Bean: no not really
Oversized Bean: just the thought that the last few days have been really nice
Baked Bean: why are you saying that like it's some sort of foreboding of something evil happening
Oversized Bean: I don't know we live in reality so I guess
Oversized Bean: it's probably just my anxiety
Baked Bean: we did talk about that yeah
Baked Bean: are you have a nightmares
Oversized Bean: no if anything if I do fall asleep it's pretty peaceful it's just I don't know
Oversized Bean: maybe cuz I'm worried about my parents or my friends actually probably everybody
Baked Bean: I mean it does look like you're kind of avoiding them too
Oversized Bean: great I went from avoiding one person to avoiding all my friends instead of you
Oversized Bean: no offense
Baked Bean: none taken
Baked Bean: as for me I'm pretty sure that they're starting to notice a pattern on this side
Baked Bean: if I'm missing you're missing and if you're missing I'm missing
Baked Bean: this shit ain't rocket science
Oversized Bean: yeah but somehow they didn't notice that you were Phantom
Baked Bean: I can clone myself
Oversized Bean: I
Oversized Bean: you can do that??
Baked Bean: yeah when it's needed or warranted
Baked Bean: I've done it multiple times it just takes so much energy
Oversized Bean: is it weird that I have never seen that before
Baked Bean: nah mostly because I just never do it in front of you or other people in general
Oversized Bean: hm
Oversized Bean: just having a cloning ability sounds cool but then I'm reminded that you have been in fact clone before
Baked Bean: imagine having the ability to duplicate but also getting cloned by a crazy man
Baked Bean: that's wild
Oversized Bean: am I going to get randomly attacked by one of your siblings one of these days
Baked Bean: holy random paranoia Spike hello
Baked Bean: not going to get attacked they'll probably give you the shovel talk Maybe
Baked Bean: Ellie will probably try roping you into her endless shenanigans and with that I say good luck
Oversized Bean: oof
Baked Bean: dan?
Baked Bean: honestly I can never tell with him cuz every 5 minutes he just decides to piss me off
Baked Bean: but what are older brothers for?
Oversized Bean: I really wouldn't know since I don't have siblings
Baked Bean: which is quite impressive to me because one would think that you would have siblings
Oversized Bean: really?
Baked Bean: I mean yeah
Oversized Bean: honestly if it wasn't for your sister freshman year I would have thought you were an only child
Baked Bean: really? Me? Huh
Oversized Bean: yeah just a thought
Baked Bean: anyway that is besides the point I highly doubt your friends would have noticed me just disappearing at the same time as you given that I am considered the bottom of the social food chain or whatever
Oversized Bean: technically I guess so though I do think at least one of them probably did notice
Baked Bean: oh?
Oversized Bean: Kwan
Oversized Bean: he has been my best friend since forever and it doesn't take a genius as you say
Baked Bean: oh yeah
Baked Bean: I guess since I hadn't seen him hovering around I almost forgot
Oversized Bean: we both have our lives to live
Oversized Bean: he definitely noticed the personality change as he was probably the only witness to my dorkiness
Baked Bean: I bet he was ecstatic about that
Oversized Bean: he was if anything he was proud of it because he always thought that the shitty personality for school was always either overrated or just straight rude
Oversized Bean: but he didn't quite complain about it either so it was always 50/50
Baked Bean: see now that's worth noting
Baked Bean: do you think he would care if he was the first one to know?
Oversized Bean: honestly I think he probably be happy like really happy
Oversized Bean: as I am also a closeted bisexual nerd
Baked Bean: but also my closeted bisexual nerd soooo
Oversized Bean: shfuahsh
Oversized Bean: maybe we should tell him first like separately from everyone else
Baked Bean: that we're dating right
Oversized Bean: Yes?
Oversized Bean: I didn't think this was going to be about anything else
Baked Bean: we keep shifting topics like every 5 seconds so I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page
Oversized Bean: fair
Oversized Bean: I'll invite him over and just tell him in private
Baked Bean: good luck with that
3:15 p.m.
Oversized Bean: it was quick easy and oh my God
Baked Bean: I'm going to assume that it went well
Oversized Bean: EXTREMELY
Baked Bean: I'm happy for you
Oversized Bean: Still on the fence with your friends?
Baked Bean: Eh Sam yes Tucker is maybe
Baked Bean: I'll have to do it separately but eventually I'll figure it out
Oversized Bean: You don't have to do it alone you know
Baked Bean: Yeah but if he saw u he would probably freak out more
Baked Bean: no offense
Oversized Bean: Yeah I did that to myself
Baked Bean: Tho maybe hearing it directly from the horse might not be so bad
Oversized Bean: Reconsidering it?
Baked Bean: Just give me a bit
Oversized Bean: Okay
Baked Bean: Head over to my place My parents will let you in so you aren't just standing there
Oversized Bean: wait right now?!
Baked Bean: better late than never
Oversized Bean: I guess so
Oversized Bean: Would it be okay to bring Kwan with me?
Baked Bean: Yeah that's cool
Baked Bean: Guys night
Oversized Bean: This sounds like impending chaos
Baked Bean: I am chaos
Oversized Bean: No you are ghost boy with untapped amount of free will and NASA merch
Baked Bean: DON'T DISS THE NASA MERCH
