Hello there! I'm pleased that you guys like this, I grin like a moron every time i read a review you guys are the best!
Ok for today ship Danny/Skulkercause a friend on tumblr recomend it
Because of physical age difference (and the fact that I don't like pedophilia) ages had been changed, so yea Danny is a legal adult
Danny was very stiff, he's been in the same place for hours without moving and his body was asking him some movement but he couldn't, not if he didn't want Skulker to have a fit. They were out in a date in an island near the Far Frozen filled with pine trees and bushes, they were hunting some kind of weird ghost so liked to call these a haunting date. He has been dating Skulker since he was 19, now with 21 they had a lot of dates and Danny had fun categorizing some of them like this one for example when the "date" was the two of them going to hunt, or the human date in were the two of them were in the human world and Skulker has a disguise of human, Danny didn't mind it, he was happy that his boyfriend would spend time with him.
Danny keeps himself for boredom with thinking of how their relationship started. He was still being hunted by Skulker after four years of getting his powers, thing that make his college life not easy. It all started after a stressful week in college when Skulker decided to grace Phantom with his presence, they fought as usual though Danny was having a lot of problems trying to stay awake, he hadn't slept in five days to finish some papers and this fight was not helping to his tired and stressed self. Skulker was testing a new class of missiles that would follow his ecto-signature and Danny had to fly away from campus into the near forest to avoid human casualties, besides dodging Skulker's blasts. At trying to dodge Skulker he didn't saw the missile that hit him in the back, the force it was so strong that pushed him into the ground, leaving a crater.
Something in Danny snapped at that moment, he thinks that it had to do with the lack of sleep and the little food he had, he was holding back so many emotions that some tears started to escape his eyes and he couldn't stop them, though he didn't even knew he was crying if not for Skulker noticing them in his face when he came out of the crater to continue the fight. Skulker had stopped his attack at the halfa at seeing the tears, and asked him if he was alright, Danny was put off by the concern in his voice but he was not going to tell his problems to the one that wanted his pelt and told him that he was fine and prepared to fight again, but he was surprised when Skulker refused to fight, saying that he couldn't fight him in his conditions and left to the Ghost Zone, leaving Danny very confused.
He stood awake all night doing some other paper and trying to stop the tears, which they didn't until way in the morning, but also expecting Skulker to show up in the middle of the night and continuing the hunt. He saw Skulker two days after that and was surprised by the concern in the mech's face, he was even more surprised when the hunter told him he looked very bad and asked him when was the last time he slept, Danny told him and after having a long discussion about self care Skulker decided to make sure he slept or he would shoot a tranquilizer to make him sleep.
That was how everything started, Skulker would appear to see if he was taking care of himself and they would talk of various themes, in one of those moments Skulker confessed that he didn't really wanted to kill him, he just liked the challenge he presented, after that both of them would spar sometimes and have a 'hunt' in which Danny always won.
They started a friendship that soon developed into attraction, they decided to start dating after Danny's 19 birthday to see if the relationship would work, and surprisingly it did. Now they were in their third hunting date looking for a ghost cryptid of some kind, Skulker said that the little thing he knew of it is that it was a kind of lindworm, a mix of dragon and snake, he knew that it was hiding somewhere in that part of the zone. This creatures were somewhat common in the Ghost Zone, but the thing with the one they were chasing was that it has an ice core and that's why he needed Danny for this hunt, though Skulker confessed that he didn't know how big this one could be.
Danny stopped to think about the past when he heard a small sound coming his way, he knew that that must be the lindworm, it was coming from where Skulker was. Their plan was of Skulker making the creature move to his position and him trapping it. Danny saw the cryptid emerge from a low bush, giving him a good look of the creature. It was white with some grey scales in the back, it had two front legs and the rest of the body appear of one of a snake, Danny could see it had dark blue eyes and some kind of skin fold in the neck, he also noticed it wasn't bigger that an adult cat and Danny couldn't help but think it was cute.
When the lindworm neared his position, it stopped and smelled the air with its purple tongue and then surprisingly walked/dragged to Danny and climbed to his shoulders, twisting its tail around Danny's torso to not fall, it appeared to be very comfy there. Danny didn't expect it to do that and when it was in his shoulder he shrugged his other shoulder and petted the creature, he thought that if it could the lindworm would have purred with the pleased expression in its face.
Skulker was surprised at finding his boyfriend petting the prey in his shoulders and when he approached the lindworm hissed at him and opened his skin fold, resembling a species of Australian lizard. Seeing that the creature took a liking to Danny, he told him with a lot of difficulty, that he could keep this prey.
Danny knew how hard it was for Skulker to give his prey away, and felt very touched by this gesture. He calmed down the creature and moved it so he could hold it with his arms, he approached Skulker and gave him a passionate kiss as thank you for the new pet. In their way back to Skulker's realm Danny took notice of how happy his boyfriend seemed, and thought that maybe this hunting dates weren't so bad after all.
The cryptid was based in a north mytological creature, tho I change it a little so it was like the uper half of a Chlamydosaurus kingii (an australian living lizard) and a snake
Hope you guys enjoyed!
