And AU where Vlad stayed friends with Jack and Maddie after the accident, and he hid his powers from them. He coped well because he still has friends, and didn't turn into a Frootloop from the years in the hospital because he still had his friends to support him through the ecto-acne treatments.

He was Best Man at Jack and Maddie's wedding, and later in life is called "Uncle Vlad," by Jazz and Danny. Pretty much every photo album in the house has Vlad playing with them, and his stuff is always in the guest room even though he lives across the street.

After Danny's accident, Vlad recognizes the signs like Danny's clumsiness and even caught him phasing through a wall (by accident on Danny's part) or something and genuinely tries to help.

And AU where Vlad is happy.

RULES:

1. Vlad cannot be a Frootloop. Or harbor any ill feelings towards Jack for the accident. He cannot want to marry Maddie, or have a crush on her, or ANYTHING. They are just friends.

2. No Pompous Pep. I'm sorry, but it will take away the effect of the "Uncle Vlad," plus it may freak out Jack and Maddie when their son is dating someone their age. It's just for the story.

3. Vlad CAN have a wife or something but ONLY if you want to create a OC for him. I highly recommend against this, (Don't get me wrong, I love OCs!) because it might also take away the Uncle Vlad effect.

4. NO EVIL VLAD. I said this one, I'm saying it again. He cannot find out about Danny's powers and do experiments on him, or try to clone him, or anything to harm him.

5. He can't be there when the accident happens. He has to recognize the signs.

Extras: (Ideas I come up with and couldn't find a way to stick it in the summery)

He can have a job at Axion Labs, or work with Jack and Maddie with the FentonWorks. They all know that the long term side effects of ecto-acne make the equipment go off every time Vlad is nearby, so they work with it.

There's this one photo of two year old Danny sleeping on Vlad's (who was also asleep) stomach and that along with this picture of a four year old Jazz playing tea party with Vlad and he's in all these feather boas and makeup are in Vlad's wallet and are Maddie's absolute favorite.

Vlad's ghost form is a little less scary so he doesn't scare the heck out of Danny when he confesses (IF he confesses. You don't have to make him tell Danny...) to being half ghost as well and transforms. Maybe green eyes with pupils instead of red, like Danny's? I don't know, do whatever you want.

OKAY NOW.

YOU ARE FREE TO DO WHATEVER THE HECK YOU WANT WITH THIS.

GET CRAZY.
