“Your tears are spilling, Danny.”
Sorry for the low quality, I didn’t have the energy to fix it.
finally did the blob version
wanted to post this for the special day, now to go to bed
I'm only like a week late, hopefully ya'll don't mind
Okay so me again! Thank you for that! So I was wanting 1, 4, 8, for Danny/ core from the ticket to the half a life fic. I love their dynamic so much. I can't wait for you to write more!! Is there a ship name for them? I don't think I've seen this ship outside of your stuff. But I am also pretty new to the phandom. So IDK really.
When you sent the thing about OTPs I honestly thought you were gonna ask my about UFS or Grayghost or PitchPearl or teddyghost or DarkAges etc. (I am a multi shipper so I honestly ship a lot of pairings. )
Not that😅
Okay so I have no Idea if there's a fandom assigned pairing name for it.
I know this is my second time writing the pairing. The first time was in a now deleted ghost king fic from 2010. Which was a lot darker then ATTHL is.
But I don't think I've seen the pairing anywhere else. But there's also always the possibility of me missing something 😅💖
There is a ship name! @oka-oka came up with it actually! It's called infinite halves.
Anyway.
1.) Who fell first.
Okay definitely the core.
I mean.... Pretty sure the first part of chapter 13 confirms that one 😅💖

The Core tried so hard to fix that. To look more like the ghosts that dwelled in it. But it was terrible at trying to be like the dead.
It had never lived or died.
It couldn't mimic them. It could hardly understand them.
It thought it was doomed to an existence of suffering and loneliness.
But then it met Danny.
Danny wasn't like any ghost it had met before.
Danny wasn't even entirely a ghost.
Danny wasn't alive, but he wasn't dead either.
Danny was like the Core.
But more importantly, Danny cared.
He got angry quickly sometimes, and he was stubborn.
But he never made it feel like he didn't care about it.
Even when he was mad, he still treated it with kindness.
He did a lot of small things that made the Core fall deeper and deeper for him as the years went on.
He got it gifts and wrote it poems. He apologized when he thought he did something wrong. He would hold hands with it sometimes when he could tell it was sad. He even let it sleep next to him whenever it asked.
The Core still remembered the first time it cried in front of Danny.
He had been asleep on his side, quietly resting as the Core sobbed softly next to him.
It froze as a half-asleep Danny wrapped his arms around it and pulled it tightly against his body.
"It's okay. I'm here to protect you." He slurred, his green eyes heavy with sleep. It didn't take long for Danny to fall into slumber again. Burying his face in its neck.
The Core never wanted that night to end.
It spent more time than it'd like to admit wishing Danny would be its first kiss.
After all of these years, it was finally happening.
Its wish was coming true.
The Core still wasn't sure if it was real.

2.) What physical trait do they love the most about each other.
The core thinks Dannys glow makes him look like an angel. It also loves his smile, and his eyes.
Danny is Ace in this so he's not really all that attracted to a trait. Which given the circumstance that's probably a good thing. Even though the marriage was arranged. He fell slowly for the core in small ways over the hundreds of year's they had been together. He just didn't allow himself to admit it for a long time. Because Danny is a rebellious dick head sometimes.
3.) Do they get along with each others friends and family?
Well this takes place 200 years after Dannys immediate family is dead. None of them became ghosts. So he's pretty much only got friends at this point. (Well unless you count his adopted son Roswell. But I'm gonna say he doesn't count. )
The core is the literal God of Death. It's the Grim Reaper. It's Ectoplasm itself.
I think this review from @majorcharacterundeath put it well.
So naturally most of the citizens of the zone are freaking terrified of it.
But that made the cores existence very lonely.
It never had friends even though it desperately wanted them.
It never had family or a caring partner or any semblance of normalcy.
Nearly every relationship where it thought it was getting one of those things, ended with it being manipulated or abused.
The observants and the ancients felt it was better to control the deity that could wipe their reality out in a snap, then to trust it to do the right thing.
They abused its desperate desire for affection and belonging, to keep it under foot.
Danny is the first appointed ruler to actually treat the marriage (it's really more of a soul bounding thing, but ill get to that later) like a marriage. Even though he didn't want the relationship at first. He took care of the core like a good partner should, because he knew it was his duty as King.
(Even tho it really wasn't his duty. None of the other rulers felt compelled to do that)
But I guess the short answer is yes and no.
Because the core has no one for Danny to get along with.
And while the core desperately wants to have good relationships with the people in Dannys life, all it does is scare them. Even when it's trying it's best to be friendly.

Holy fuck was that a lot of words. I didn't realize I could talk so much about these two 😅💖
