G is for Goodbyes

"So this is it? You aren't going to come back anymore?"

"Well, you know I'll definitely going to be back for visits... Thanksgiving, Christmas break, Easter... I'm still going to be here."

"But you won't live in Fenton Works anymore."

"Danny, we've been through this. I thought you were the one who told me to go for it!"

"I did, it's just-"

"Look, I told you this, but I'll say it again. I can always go to the community college-at least until you graduate. You know that despite how nerdy I am, family always come before my grades."

"I know, but Harvard has always been your dream..."

"..."

"There's no way you're giving up your dream for me."

"You gave up yours for Amity."

"I know. But you have already given enough, Jazz. I just, I'll, I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you too. If mom and dad tries anything-"

"I can handle them. I'll be too selfish if I try to keep you all to myself. The world needs you too."

"For what? It's not like I can save anyone's life on a daily basis."

"You've already saved my sanity. I'd say that's pretty impressive. 'Number one psychologist in the country, saving one superhero at a time.'"

"Stop it! You're embarrassing me."

"Well, that's what younger brothers do."

"... Danny, I'll miss you so much. Maybe drop by sometime when you're at it?"

"Definitely. Once I figure out a way to Cambridge from the Ghost Zone, I'll drop by every weekend."

"And promise me that you'll at least try getting into MIT for astrophysics. I know you can do it. If you just try and pull your grades up for your junior and senior year, involved in more school activities and do well on the SATs..."

"Jazz. Stop. You know it's not going to happen. It was pretty obvious by the middle of my Freshman year. My future as an unemployed individual has already been set."

"Danny, you have to stop thinking like that. Just promise me, you'll try. You'll try your hardest."

"..."

"Promise me."

"Fine! I will. I promise. But don't get your hopes high."

"That's my brother."

"..."

"Well. I guess this is it for a while? As soon as I settled in, I'll call you. Plan for a trip to visit me soon?"

"Definitely. I still don't understand why you're arriving on the campus a month early, but I guess it's your choice. As soon as you settle down, I'll dig up a way with the infi-map. If I can't find a way, I'll make one."

"Quoting Hannibal now, eh? Nice. Either way, little brother, I love you. Be safe for me, eh?"

"I will. Don't worry. I'm unkillable."

"Don't get too arrogant!"

"I'm the most humble person on Earth. Don't worry."

"Of course. I'll see you soon?"

"Count on it."

So my headcanon is that Jazz got in Harvard and she planned to move in during late July/early August for some pre-school year experience. (I'm actually writing this against a Harvardly prestigious brick wall. It's pretty nice here.) This is the summer Phantom Planet (Danny's rising junior summer) happened.

Jazz flew back after a bit to help with the chaos and the general apocalypse. And after PP, Danny's childhood dream was broadcasted and MIT did accept him for the "exceptional community service accomplished and the inspirational speech elaborating on the beauties of the universe". So the whole Fenton family moved to Cambridge, MA also for better researching equipments. Tucker was also accepted into MIT for Electrical Engineering and Sam into Harvard for Law School.
