danny: i think i just became a father

We make Danny Eldritch, or "Just some Guy" when he gets summoned as the Ghost King, but then a stray thought happened. What if instead of Danny getting summoned, that would be anyone else from Danny's personal Council? Pandora, Clockwork, Frostbite, anyone else really (probably aside from the Observants.)

And then depending on the situation, assist and explain certain things without delving too much into Infinite Realms stuff. And they agree to hold a meeting with the Council and the King.

I can imagine them sitting by the table, with some very terrifying Ghosts, the Floating Eyeballs - and the Giant Throne at the end of the table. They're expecting a dangerous entity that overthrew Pariah Dark.

Only for Danny to tumble in, literally, in a panic because he was late. And let the people who summoned him do a double-take because the King of the Ghosts is just a dead teenager.

Like, he's wearing a very clearly oversized King outfit and coat, alongside the Crown of Fire floating on his head, the Ring of Rage as he apologizes for being late. Not that it matters, since at the moment, he's a Figure-head until he ... you know, fully dies or grows up as a Halfa.

Not that the Living in the Meeting know he's a Halfa. Because all they see is a dead - but awkward teenager - who is obviously the King, stumbling around and apologizing and wanting to be the best he can.

Danny obviously doesn't want to be mentored, cause he's already got so many teachers. But he's appreciative that they're thinking of all of that.

Deadman: I know.

Clockwork: The more time you spend here the more you will disappear.

Deadman: I know..

Clockwork: Is there a reason you stay?

Deadman: Would it be weird to say I don't even know any more?

Clockwork: No. You've lost those memories.

Deadman: Eh. I guess so. You know. I don't know why you asked me if you already knew? Know? Saw? See? I'm not sure what the word for you would be correct.

Clockwork: They could all work.

Deadman: Cool but like you know what I mean.

Clockwork: Do I?

Deadman: Ah don't fuck with me now man.

Zatanna: Boston?

Deadman: Oh hey Z!

Zatanna: Who were you talking too just now?

Deadman: Eh? An old friend— oh where did he go?

Zatanna: Boston no one else was in here but you. Constantine said you were just standing here for a second.

Deadman: Oh. Oh yeah I guess it would look like that for you guys.

Zatanna: Oh?

Deadman: No worries. We have other things to do right? We are running short on time let's go!

That is until someone summons the ancient of time and gets a baby because the portal was a little to the left.
