The Many Dates of Danny Fenton

Many people on the dating program have certain standards on people they date and reactions to the strange happenings on their dates.

In General

  • Despite becoming a Chick Magnet, once Danny gets a girlfriend, he stays loyal to her. From examples in many stories, he doesn't appreciate being hit on by Bonnie or Paulina, he rejects Mandie's marriage offer and refuses to let Sailor Venus kiss him by informing her he's in a relationship.
  • Like most people outside of Dash's clique, Michelle Lynne Clarke is disgusted by his behavior.
  • In each timeline where Vlad reveals his villainous nature and Jack Fenton finds out that he hates him (and how Vlad has both been pining for Maddie and threatening his kids), Jack (while hurt by his betrayal) accepts that his former friend is now an irredeemable monster and cuts ties with him.

The Many Dates of Danny Fenton

  • Jen would normally go for someone like Dash Baxter, but she's offended by how he sleazily hits on her without even bothering to get to know her, his rude attitude towards her date, and how he mocks the last girl Danny dated (Violet Parr) by calling her a spazz.
  • Danny understandably doesn't have a high opinion of Dash for being a bully, and for all the times Dash bullied him. However, in the snippet where Danny chooses Jen Masterson from 6teen, Danny's genuinely shocked when Dash stoops so low as to steal his and Jen's tickets for a local basketball game, though he admitted he should not be surprised. Fed up with Dash's attempts to spoil his dates and now his new low of theft, Danny uses his powers to give Dash the slip before he and Jen leave to enjoy the game.
  • Tucker, despite how desperate he is to find a date, was completely appalled when he learned about Cree being a Child Hater that he didn't hesitate to stand her up on their blind date. He also finds Meg too abhorrent to be dating and is creeped out from her stalking.
  • For as much as Danny hates Dash, he didn't want him facing Katie Kaboom's wrath and even tries warning him (to no avail).
    • Speaking of which, despite how crazy she is, Katie becomes disgusted with Dash after he hits on her and threatens Danny, and she doesn't hesitate to tell him to get lost, choosing Danny over him.
  • Leo, Raph and Mikey disapprove of Donnie watching over April during her blind date.
  • When Felicia Hardy is mistaken about what Danny means by saying he wants more than kissing, she glares at him before he clarifies that he wants someone he respects and in turn respects him.
  • Daria Morgendorffer acts less aloof towards Danny when he tells her he was being stalked by a past date.
  • Danny, despite the many girls he has gone out with, rejects adult women trying to make a move on him. He rejects Poison Ivy trying to kiss him before he found out about her Kiss of Death. He's also creeped out by the Space Biker Tammy flirting with him.
  • Even the Warners were shocked when they heard that Katie (accidentally) got her brother injured.

TMDDF: Danny and Kara

  • Dash went out with Bonnie, Mandy, La Cienaga, Tricia, and Mitzi, each of whom is a shallow Alpha Bitch in their respective show but apparently even they found Dash to be unbearable.
  • Tucker finally stops going along with Sam's blatant jealousy and refuses to help her when she continues outright stalking Kara.
  • Even Sam isn't jealous enough to wish physical harm on Kara. Also, despite her jealousy and flaws, Tucker believes that, even at her worst, Sam would never give up Kara's secret. He is proven right when Vlad offers to work with Sam to get rid of Kara, to which she reacts in disgust and outrage, saying that even if she can't stand Kara, she wouldn't stoop low enough to hurt her or Danny.
  • Kara Kent tries to be patient and friendly with most people, even if they are rude to her like Sam was. However, Deadpool proves to be too aggravating even for her.
  • Dash accuses Tucker of hacking into the website for "You+Me=LOVE" to deliberately set him up with bad dates, being unwilling to accept it as his own fault that his dates dislike him. Tucker (for as much as he dislikes Dash) would never resort to something that petty and is genuinely offended by this accusation.
  • Sam's normally against Danny using his powers to get revenge on people, but after hearing how horrible Vicky was to both him and Tucker, as well as the fact that Vicky (who's 16) bullies kids, she's willing to make an exception.
  • Michelle Lynne Clarke considers the joke invites the A-lists sometimes do as "so grade school".
  • Kwan and Star were uneasy when Dash and Paulina blamed Danny for them not getting invited to the senior party, and when the latter two plan to get revenge on Danny, they decide to not get involved. Star normally doesn't care what they did to geeks, but she thinks this is excessive. Kwan is usually a follower, even if it was something he didn't really agree with, but he refuses to join Dash this time. And while part of the reason is that he doesn't want to risk invoking Kara's wrath and getting hurt, he genuinely didn't want to ambush and hurt Danny for no reason.
  • Flower princess11 doesn't mind Deadpool but wasn't happy with him interrupting a serious flashback.
  • Bonnie Rockwaller's usually the first girl to throw herself into a popular boy's arms, but she regards Dash Baxter as the worst date she ever had, to the point of wanting to inflict bodily harm on him.
  • Kara's okay with Danny being friends with his former dates (such as Kitty Pryde from the X-Men) so long as they respect boundaries, like how Danny is off-limits for kissing.
  • Felicia Hardy doesn't condone cheating in a competition, being more than happy to get Dale in trouble with Mr. Barkin.

TMDDF: After Many Dates: Danny and Kim

  • Phantasma is revealed to despise Vlad Plasmius for being a narcissistic asshole.
  • Despite finding Shego very attractive, Danny was appalled that Camille attempted to seduce him while taking on her appearance. And sure enough, once he's of legal age, Shego hitting on him is met more with discomfort than flattery.
  • Although it's mostly for the aforementioned Betty White topic, Deadpool also expresses dislike of Hank for being an emotionally abusive father to Bobby.

TMDDF: Danny Chooses Alex After the Many Dates

  • It's implied that Clover was dating Dash just for his looks and status as a football player. However when Dash told her that he doesn't plan to be a famous football player when he grow up and instead will probably work for some nerd, she was disappointed. Cloves later becomes disgusted when Dash and Kwan refuse to believe that Samantha plans to become a journalist and does her own homework because to them, pretty girls aren't smart. Clover and Samantha angrily dump them after that.
  • Despite Clover's dislike of Tucker, when Dash blames him for him and Kwan being caught trying to attack Danny because Clover and Samantha broke up with them, Clover is annoyed with Dash and wonders if he's obsessed with blaming other people for his problems.
  • When Paulina thought that Alex was only dating Danny so she can humiliate him later with a prank at prom, Clover believed that it's too immature to go out of their way for such a prank. "Just ignore the losers and tell them to take a hike".
  • Sam greatly dislikes Alex for dating Danny. However, during the So Totally the Drama arc when Alex got a Little Diablos doll, Sam was worried for her safety and called Danny to warn her.
  • Mandy may be an unpleasant and shallow person, but even she despises Dash Baxter. As she explains to her friends Dominique and Caitlin, Dash is just so much of a jerk that his good looks, physical condition, and star quarterback status don't make up for that. Dominique and Caitlin attempted to flirt with the handsome jock anyway, believing Mandy just had bad taste. However, Dash turned them down because he wanted to score with a princess to win a bet but offered to do something with them after the princess leaves. Both Dominique and Caitlin were disgusted by Dash's jerkass behavior and understood why Mandy couldn't stand him as well.

TMDDF: After Many Dates: Danny and Gwen

  • Danny doesn't defend Tucker when Gwen says she heard of him using a fake profile to lure girls in.
  • Kevin isn't fond of Danny but he likes "bullies even less."
  • Gwen is understandably angry at Sam for spying on her and Danny's dates and accidentally revealing her identity to The Guys In White. However, she took no joy when Danny revealed that he ended his friendship with Sam and was sympathetic towards Sam after seeing how sad she was. Later, when Gwen talks to Danny about potentially forgiving Sam, Danny compared their former friendship to his archenemy, Vlad Master's, former friendship with his dad Jack Fenton. Gwen told Danny she doesn't think Sam can be that petty.
  • Deadpool's insanity and fourth wall breaking abilities are the one mystery Paradox's not interested in solving.
  • For as insane as he is, even Deadpool thinks that Poison Ivy's methods to "help nature" generally cause more harm than good and doesn't hesitate to call her out on it.

TMDDF: After Many Dates: Danny and Phantasma

  • When Danny tells Phantasma about Cree and Vicky, Phantasma "disrelished". Not even a ghost would like a child beater.
  • When Danny tells Phantasma about how The Guys in White would've subjected Spectra Vondergeist and her friends to painful experiments, Phantasma feels bad for Spectra in spite of their rivalry.

In TMDDF: After Many Dates Danny and Kitty

  • Mr. Lancer generally favors the A-listers, but even he will punish them if he catches them spreading bigotry.
  • Despite Jack and Maddie Fenton's obsessive hatred for ghosts and their suspicious nature, it shows that they are not bigots, as they had no problem with their son Danny dating the mutant Kitty and expressed disgust when Vlad tried to vilify her because of her mutation.

TMDDF: After Many Dates: Danny and Makoto

  • Even Dash's fellow A-Listers are taken aback when he mocks Danny's "cousin", Danielle.
    Paulina: Fenton and the geeks are one thing but that girl was like what, seven or something?

TMDDF: After Many Dates Danny and Angelica

  • Kwan is unhappy with Dash stealing Angelica's jacket and asks him to give it back. While he normally joins Dash in bullying other students, even when he knows it's not right, Kwan was uncomfortable with Dash harassing a younger girl that did nothing to him.
  • Agent Alpha is the head of The Guys In White, a secret government organization whose goal is to eliminate all ghosts and other paranormal beings on Earth. However, he was outraged when Agents O and K framed the Fenton's son Danny for being a member of the terrorist organization HYDRA to steal their ghost portal instead of buying it legally as he ordered them to. And to a lesser extent, having an adult daughter with a successful career, he was disgusted with the sexism they showed Maddie Fenton for not knowing her place and punched both of them in the jaw for that remark. In the end, Agent Alpha left Agents O and K with their co-conspirators to rot in SHIELD custody and accepted his early retirement to make amends for letting them get out of control in the first place.

TMDDF: After Many Dates: Danny and Felicia

  • Sam Manson greatly dislikes Felicia Hardy, both for dating her crush Danny and for being a rich, popular, and beautiful girl, judging her as a Spoiled Brat and Brainless Beauty. However, when Sam tells Felicia that she does not believe that someone like her can be smart, Felicia is outraged and proclaims she can be whatever she wants to be, demanding an apology — she's a beautiful girl at the top of her class, and there is no rule against that. Felicia uses Dr. Vivian F. Porter as an example; a beautiful scientist who is an authority in robotics research. Still, no one would take her seriously because of how she dressed and acted. It was only recently that Vivian started working at the Middleton Space Center. While still disliking Felicia, Sam concedes her point by begrudgingly admitting she's more than what people want her to be.
  • Valerie Gray dislikes Felicia Hardy, not trusting that she has good intentions dating her friend Danny. While talking with Felicia alone, Valerie makes it known that while she dislikes Felicia, she will not be surly every time they talk but warns Felicia that if she does anything to hurt Danny, she'll be dealing with Valerie. When Felicia asks if Valerie will be stalking her before confronting her, a shocked Valerie denies it, asking what kind of girl Felicia thinks she is. When Felicia answers the kind that's friends with Danny, Valerie guesses that Sam stalked her, prompting her to say, "Please tell me you are not talking about Sam."
  • Even the eccentric ghost-hunting married couple Jack and Maddie Fenton were unnerved by Deadpool, and both considered him a madman.
  • Clover was angry along with her friends when she saw Dash bully Danny and helped Danny up when Dash pushed him down. When Dash protested Clover and her friends helping Danny and attempted to flirt with her and her friends, Clover turned him down, telling him, "Normally, I'd maybe consider going out with a guy likes you, but I don't date jerks. Especially loud mouth jocks, who pick on people". Clover may be into buff jocks, but she would never date a bully. She's no saint herself, but she can at least act professionally around people.
  • Alex has a massive crush on Danny and was happy to see him again, though was disappointed to learn that he had a girlfriend. However, when her friend Clover suggests that she make a move on Danny while his girlfriend was out of town, Alex is shocked that Clover would suggest she do something like that. Even when her friend Samantha pointed out that Alex hasn't stopped talking about Danny since the dating service, Alex is still upset that Clover would suggest she steal someone else's boyfriend. Even though she still likes Danny, she's uncomfortable with the thought of stealing him from another girl.

TMDDF: After the Dates: Danny and Violet

  • Paulina is pissed when Dash insults Danny for going on a date with Jenny, seeing nothing wrong with Interspecies Relationships and approving of Danny potentially dating a robot.

TMDDF: After The Many Date with Danny and Penny

  • Even when Cupid uses his arrows to make several boys fight over Penny, they refuse to fight a kid in a wheelchair.

TMDDF: The Many Kids of Danny Fenton

  • Apparently, even Phantasma, the kooky and wild ghost girl, isn't fond of Danny's friendship with Deadpool.
