I'm sorry about the Blaine. But let me make it up to you:
If you want to see 17 full-color pages of Walky and Dorothy going at it, you totally can over on Slipshine. It's canon! Here's a possibly Non-Work-Safe four-page preview!
And you're welcome. Incoming

I genuinely hope Danny does something to fix the inevitable fallout this will cause.
dailybrad
I hope he does, too, but that will require Amber filling him in on a few things, I hope she does that, too.
Ahighfunctioningsociopath
I genuinely hope he’s not dead
Reynard-Miri
Pretty much. o_O

With the look Blaine’s giving, I’d wager bets that Danny’s probably in multiple pieces, in a trunk, in a ditch on the side of a highway.
JeffEpp
And covered in Amber’s DNA. And finger prints.
Rowen Morland
Tied up on the road side ready to be pushed of in the path of an oncoming truck.

Amber’s close to at her weakest, still reeling from events with Ethan and Sal and her own violent rages. There’s hope, though, simply because Blaine has not actually shown that much creativity. In his first encounter with Amber, he kept falling back on old tactics that didn’t really apply any more and all they earned him was multiple beatings and humiliations.
He’s obviously TRYING to play things smarter this time, but the results have only been successful so far because Danny is both uninformed AND not the most experienced judge of human nature. “It might… embarrass her… in front of her friends. Right? Yes, that sounds like a thing that a weakling, I mean, a ‘DECENT’ person, would say, doesn’t it? I am credible! I must relax my eyebrows but my eyebrows MUST EXPRESS MY RAAAAGE.”
At this point, his plan seems to be to tell Amber “Look at me, I can get to your stupid little ‘sweetheart’ who thinks you’re crazy, by the way. You can never escape me! FEAR ME. OBEY ME. LOVE ONLY ME.” But Amber, while upset about Danny in the short term, would probably hear this as “You know, I understand that you’re worried about your anger management issues, but really, you’d probably be fully justified in punching me into a coma. It’s okay, really. You TRIED to be reasonable, but I’m just not fucking human.”

T Campbell: pretty good at beating me to the punch with more eloquence than I can muster after work on a Monday.
Chatham
“Even a potato in a dark cellar has a certain low cunning about him which serves him in excellent stead.”
T Campbell
(Oh, and just to clarify… I don’t seriously think Danny’s in THAT much danger. Blaine has no incentive to harm someone he thinks may be on his side.)
Leorale
Danny totally has no idea — Blaine was probably like, “hey, I’ll give my daughter a call to check in or see if she wants to meet for dinner, oh wait my phone is out of batteries” and Danny would helpfully be like “oh use mine” 🙁
Ahighfunctioningsociopath
I sincerely hope/doubt that’s the case
Mr. Random
How else would he get the phone? Blaine’s, unfortunately, smart when he is raging. He knows how to make a seemingly meaningless harmless request.
Reynard-Miri
You mean aside from violence and/or kidnapping?
Derek
Blaine is Walter White?
The Gentleman Mummy
Walter is the opposite of smart when raging.
Carlos
More like. (His phone is in his back pocket eh?) ” gasp is that amizi-girl?![no caps cuz he’s a douche]” then Danny’s all like “Where?!” And Blaine goes *EVIL PHONE SWIPE*
Rowen Morland
Not even a regular phone swipe but an “EVIL PHONE SWIPE”?
What a douche!
Giant Speck
Don’t worry, he won’t.
Robert
Stand aside mortals! It’s Amazi-Girl’s newest sidekick: Idiot-Boy. He makes things worse just by hanging around.
Reynard-Miri
His super power is not being told things!
begbert2
And being blamed for not having been told things!
Undrave
You don’t hand out your phone to a stranger who claims to be your friend’s father without any proof! Sheesh!
MrMercury
Well why would he question it?
cmd1095
driver’s license or other ID could prove it, I’m sure Blaine has his last name on an official ID, not that hard to prove.
PureMajora
There /is/ a family resemblance to back it up as well.
JA
He’ll just Danny it up.
Keroshino
He’s Danned his last Dan.
hoop
Danny’s fucking dead. Look at that facial expression. Danny is deader than shit, just off panel, and Blaine is holding a bloody length of lead pipe.
Martin Smith
Which, knowing Danny, would probably make it worse. A lot worse. People will die.
Jen Aside
“Why Danny, you sound like an asshole!”
Ahighfunctioningsociopath
“And I mean more than usual”
KingMabel
“Amber, I am your father.”
Aizat
“(gasp) No, that is not possible! Oh, wait, no, you’re right. ” You know, I’ve been waiting for a long time to use this one.
Ess
Thank you so much for bringing out this reference. I can hear it in his voice. Wonderful.
Aizat
You’re welcome. I’ve been dying to use this one ever since I heard it the first time on TV.
Yotomoe
That could literally be applied to every conversation with Danny.
Sageress
Or, alternatively, “You sound like you’re making a VERY uninformed life-changing decision!”
Mr K
That sounds like it could apply to almost everyone.
Jen Aside
“Oh, my phone has a typo DADDY”
Idon'tcarenomore
oh Shit. End of nice.
Tunaro
Possible upside? Blaine killed Danny
Jen Aside
That feels like the greater of two evils.
thecanvashat
Well, at least it wasn’t both!
Cephalo the Pod
Dude.
Danny as an evil sidekick.
I want it.
Yotomoe
He would Dan it up and end up doing good.
Aizat
So, by being a villain, Danny is a hero?
Opus the Poet
Accidentally the hero.
Sageress
Or the world’s greatest crouching moron, hidden dragon.
MrMercury
And I still question why everyone hates Danny
Keroshino
And shoved him into a fridge!
Aizat
Oh come now. That’s not nice….shove him in a flaming barrel.
Mr. Random
Electrical fire, then over the falls.
JeffEpp
I called that when he “Just happened to bump” into Danny.
Safgaftsa
Hello.
Spectre
…Oh boy.
Spectre
Just noticed Blaine’s crazy-eyes, too…
This is going to be BAD.
Aizat
That ain’t crazy eyes…them’s a straight up “I’ll swallow your soul” face.
nekobawt
yeah, “i’ll swallow your soul” is totally an appropriate facial expression. nothing crazy about it.
Aizat
Yes, because soul swallowing is not actually crazy. Look at Shang Tsung. Does he look crazy to you?
Doctor_Who
Yeah, dude looks like an actual serial killer.
Ahighfunctioningsociopath
So he looks like Blaine?
Matt
No, before he was a mere family abuser. Now he has leveled up.
Tunaro
On a scale of 1 to Hannibal Lector, I’d say he rates at about an 8, 8 1/2.
begbert2
Wait, so you mean he looks like everybody else?
Bill
Not so worried about those eyes as I am that cat-that-ate-the-canary leer on his face.
StClair
That is the smile of unholy triumph.
Hobouturtle
That eye twitch
asmcint
Dammit, you beat me to it… But yeah, dat twitch. Amber’s FUCKED. And it’s all thanks to Danny danning it up for the millionth fucking time.
DontBeThatGuy
Oh, come on. Danny couldn’t possibly have known. Amber didn’t tell anyone about her parents besides the people she went to high school with. Don’t blame Danny.
begbert2
Don’t you know? People on the forum here are the Anti-Danny. Not in that they oppose him (though the do), but because where Danny is blamed for failing to act on information he never had, the fandom KNOWS that he’s being perfectly rational based on his limited information, and yet fails to use that information and instead pretends he’s stupid.
