hanaban | Danny Fenton ☆ White Tiger

[ If he stabs Danny right here and now, there will be nobody around to save him. ]

Before, then. You're only half.

...when you came back here. After the CATs and everything. Were you half-ghost?

[ questions............. ]

It felt more like full ghost. I was transparent and could pass through solid objects, but there was still something wrong. I tried to put Ryuki back into his body before he threw a fit about it, and it didn't work.

[ And then their bodies disappeared!! thinking about it makes his head hurt ]

Well, then, there's your answer.

Full ghost but different ghost! And before that, a proper full ghost!

[ Danny's still half! stop looking smug ]

[ rolls his eyes ] Fine. Sure. Hate being a ghost if you want.

At least you get to have whatever happened with your CATs undone.

[ It's not like he hates it....... Being a ghost is objectively 1000% better than being alive, just not out of principle ]

...did Rita tell you about it?

[ technically yes but we're operating in the vague quantum timelines of simultaneously occurring pcs ]

I heard a few things from Ryuki when you guys first came back.

Ryuki?

[ That surprises him a little, because Ryuki's been seeming a little... neurotic, lately, and Hanako didn't think he'd want to talk about anything that had happened. ]

Did he say something about it being his fault...?

Not really? I just heard him mention the CATs and...Clockwork. [ he says the name a tone lower, derisively ]

[ squints ]

How do you know the clock keeper...?

I know him from my world. Huge jerk.

So what was he doing there?

[ or- what were THEY doing there?? ]

If that school's a connection to your world, you should go back before the pathway closes.
