Sorry Cellbit, You And Team BOLAS?!?!?!? Already Adopted Philza As Your Dadza

so cute

does it ever drive you crazy just how fast the night changes

if dakota had moved at any point morally in this campaign, i think pd would’ve hit more supervilliainy vibes right after losing ashe. and honestly i don’t think this situation would feel nearly so bad if they didn’t know their actions would directly disappoint dakota(and tide). i think his strict morality in all of this makes the choices feel worse. because if there wasn’t going to be inner party conflict from this, i think charlie could justify/brush it off easier and william would’ve gone off the deep end a while ago. but instead we have william trying to cling to “whats right” despite not really believing in it, because he believes in dakota more than he believes in himself

Once again not great with wordsand it is 12 am but as a disabled trans person i have. so many thoughts on William Wisp. its something about being at war with your own body. knowing that something is fundamentally Wrong with you, this disconnect between your body and spirit (quite literally, in his case) and knowing that at any moment it can fail on you. the fear that any moment your own body will betray you. this thing that is, for lack of a better term, meant to be you functioning in a way that you cant control. Its being able to look at your own body and it no longer being you, knowing that you are something that exists within it and not it itself. and knowing that no one else can understand because their body is them while your body is something you are trapped in, something that you are so fully aware of in a way no one else around you is as you can feel yourself rotting away, and being so painfully aware of every sensation you can feel and sensation that you cant feel that comes so easily to everyone else. Your own body is something Other, something that you are Not, yet is the very thing that defines you.

wouldn’t it be sooooo funny and narratively cathartic for both their characters if at some point william is once again falling. whether that be physically off another fucking cliff, or into some kind of hell portal, or anything that would actually pose deadly threat to the ghost boy that can technically float and fly. or shit, now it seems worryingly possible it could be william falling more morally/metaphorically from heroism itself into some kind of villainy.

either way though, william is again falling to his doom. but this time dakota is there, and he catches him.

whether that’s by physically grabbing on to his hand or symbolically offering it out for him to take to once again join them or fucking both at once.

and he stops william from falling.

and this time, dakota has the strength to pull his friend back up. this time, dakota gets to save them both.

so this time, william doesn’t fall. because this time? william isn’t alone. isn’t lost in the woods without any guidance but a strange blue flicker.

because this time william has his friends to catch him.

and so, this time… william doesn’t die.

i feel like this fundamentally would heal an open wound both dakota and william have been carrying around from the very beginning; finally, dakota is strong enough to save his friend from a deadly fall. finally, someone is there to catch william before it’s too late.

dakota finally gets to save the unsaveable, and william finally gets to stop falling to the fate he’s had since the beginning.

gotta love rumi jrwi and their perfectionism, self-image issues, delusions of grandeur and god complex (but she also has flaws) ✨💜

oh wait fuck. i know i'm like a million years late but i just saw the art that was posted on patreon

did smoke monster william literally become canon

Hey phandom!!

Do you love Danny phantom but wish there was more canon angst? More development on the fact that he's literally fucking dead? An ongoing plot rather than an episodic show? Wish the show was made by... decent people rather than bitch hartman?? Then boy do I have the suggestion for you!

Introducing:

William Wisp is one of the main characters for the dnd podcast, Just Roll With It for their superhero campaign Prime Defenders! He is a character explicitly based on danny phantom, and man does it include so much of the potential angst of dp! And honestly? He's like dp but with more social anxiety. His player, slimecicle, is a GOD at coming up with puns and one-liners on the fly so he fits perfectly.

William is a mystery investigating teen who fell off a cliff and died, but miraculously survived with the help of little blue ghosts called will o' wisps, which also give him ghost powers (including the classic walk through walls, disappear and fly of dp). Because of these powers, he was invited to join the Prime Defenders, a team of teenage superheros being trained to protect Prime (the planet they're on), and he's now a superhero called The Whisperer!

Need some more convincing? Here's an actual intro for one of the episodes in s2 (minor s2 spoilers):

And here's a (fan-made, but by one of their official artists) introduction to all of the characters (William's bit starts at 1:11):

I have some more stuff to convince you, but this is getting into spoilers so first I'll tell you where you can find prime defenders!

Now, unfortunately prime defenders is their patreon campaign, so is available for $5 a month on the Just Roll With It patreon, but the first 5 episodes (as well as the 2 prequel episodes, which give some good background but aren't really that important) are available for free! Here is the link to episode one, and if people want more info about the prequel episodes, feel free to come and ask me! They just finished season 2, and they definitely have plans for a next season (after a hiatus for the GM to get stuff together)

Now. Onto spoilers!

[PT: Now. Onto spoilers!]

So this is mostly going to be a list of William lore/stuff that happened that i enjoy as a danny phantom fan!

So William grapples a LOT with walking the line between alive and dead, one of the major parts of his lore is the fact that he keeps running from the fact that he's dead! He has a ghost form like Danny Phantom does, but William's ghost form is like. a seperate entity to himself. as in his ghost leaves his body and leaves his corpse behind. william has said that every time he does it, it feels like dying.

Also, he's canonically decomposing. and also doesn't have blood or a pulse. or need to breath. or sleep. in canon. Also he keep dying. As in his spirit keeps leaving his body. He's now died 4 times as of the s2 finale, and I think he can technically die as much as he wants now? I'm not sure his last death was literally in the finale so they haven't had much time to develop on it.

If you want a taste of William grappling with,, being dead, here's a clip from the end of one of the episodes that they got animated! It also gives a good idea of the GMing style and the acting/voice acting for William, as well as some of Will's other lore!

Do you like vivisection? Perfect! There is vivisection in Prime Defenders! It's not actually happening to William, but it is a pretty big part of his lore, and he is like. complicit in it! and if you like cryptid phantom, you'll love this arc as well! Here's some of the official art from that arc just to prove it:

Do you like Vlad? That's great! There's a Vlad type character for William as well! His name is Mallard Conway and he is equally a creep that we don't like <3

Do you like ghost king Danny? That's great as well! William isn't quite the ghost king, but he is the Whisperer, which is a similar position of power! I can't remember the exact details, but basically he's really important to preventing their version of the ghost zone from being destroyed, and so is generally a very important ghost!

Now this bit is like. end of the s2 finale spoilers and let me tell you, if you're already convinced, STOP READING RIGHT NOW, and if you aren't quite convinced GO WATCH THOSE CLIPS I ATTACHED OR GO WATCH OTHER CLIPS FROM THE SHOW, I am happy to send people some if they come ask me, but I swear the experience of this scene is so much better if you AREN'T spoiled for this so STOP READING AND GO LISTEN TO IT RIGHT NOW. ok now it should only be people who REALLY aren't convinced/really don't care about spoilers, but I mentioned that William is the Whisperer? well he's actually the successor of a previous Whisperer, who is canonically voiced by david kaufman, aka the voice actor for danny phantom. yes, for real. aka. william wisp is BOTH IN AN OUT OF CANON the succesor of danny phantom.

anddd that's about all I can think of right now, but I promise you Prime Defenders is a lot of fun so go! listen to it! and also as much as I love William, if you do end up listening to Prime Defenders, make sure to give the other characters some love as well!! Have fun!

the anti-heroes.
