I just suddenly decided to list these up online because I am bored XDD
Guess what? The original planning for DPA! And any other fun facts XDD

1. Darry was originally supposed to be a bit taller, all-out music lover who listens to music all the time, having this look 99% of time(yes he does that 'metal' hand often), and says "Check it Out" a lot with a low-cool tone(?)... idk yes he is pretty much like Fun Danny :rofl: but then I am like, what made this kid want to go to the past to see Danny if he is like that so I changed that :rofl::rofl::rofl:
2. Darry was supposed to be in soccer team as an ace scorer. He is supposed to be active in sports. I canceled that after I decided to go with American football since it's where DP came from and I tried to make this sounds as cartoonly as possible- and American cartoons puts American football everywhere. I am not much of a fan of American football tho', but I ended up making him a runningback who just plays on big games because he wants to have fun only :rofl:
3. As you guys know, I wanted to make Darry the opposite of Danny. So that's why he is an A-lister and stuffs. As a 'popular' kid type, I was thinking to give him a motorcycle. But then again I cancelled this idea because he already can fly so who needs that :rofl: (no, it's not because of the original DP idea of Danny with motorcycle and spooky)
4. Continuation from above, I was thinking to make him in a bad relationship with Danny. But I shorta failed. So Plan B here we go :rofl:
5. DPA was unplanned at all back there. I didn't want to make it. Darry was supposed to be a supporting character (as you see in TC and TC2) with no reason to be a main character or having his own story AT ALL. Until someone kept asking me about his personal life and I eventually make a story of my own in my head and it ended up to be a series that I am dying to let out.
6. As I said from before, DPA was unplanned. However I had plot bunnies for Darry's story in DP's future in my head. I just have two stories for that at first, both focusing on him.
7. Violine was not created until I do a DP OC meme because some tag and they asked me for a friend of said OC. I had no idea. I always have an image of Vio in my head, but I never 100% sure of her. She was made to become a company and pairing only in first place for random plot bunnies.
8. And finally, the plot bunnies in my head just continued and Violine does not become a mere 'need for ship' only char. And I also put the two episodes in my episode list.
9. Two DP OCs were made between Darry and Violine's creation. You will see them in the two first episodes I planned I am talking about in the future :)
10. Mike was supposed to be in self-love and looks at mirror a lot, thinking himself as handsome and stuffs. He uses a lot of hairgel, likes to flirt. More like a pretty man.
11. I was very unsure to put GGoW in. They were based on real people. Later on I ended up putting them in. And later I also think to put a secondary pairing in DPA because if one pair dominates a story it won't be fun. I go with Felicia because Felicia was based of me, not because I wanted to be paired with my own OC- but because I am not sure if Sarah or Hannah would like it if their look-alike getting a pair in the story and getting readers pairing them.
12. Continuation to number 11 : I find no regrets in the end :)
13. Continuation again : Even to the point that I ended up cancelling DarryxVio from main pairing and becomes 50:50 for the main pairing in the end. Still no regret. :)
14. Darry's prototype little sister - canceled.
15. oh oh that reminds me. Did I tell you that Darry was supposed to have electric power in the first planning? That explains the pattern in his ghost form tho' X'D I canceled that planning. But I keep the pattern in that ghost form because it looks too awesome to change X"""D and toro is lazy. (oh and before anyone sue me... I hope you guys know the ghost form outfit was designed by Sam since she is a fashion designer so that explains why it can look stylish and unique while keeping reassambles to Danny's original outfit.) (have i told you how hard it is to design a black dominant outfit while keeping the logo black while also white dominant?)
16. Felicia's first design tho'... big NO. until I realize there are fem chars with more variation of look in DP
17. I haven't told you about the canceled original idea (before this DPA was decided to be made) where Darry becomes Clockwork's apprentice have I? :l (I still have the pictures of apprentice Darry at my sketchbook btw)
18. HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE ORIGINAL DPA SERIES PLANNING TO BE THE EXACT SAME LIKE DP BUT WITH CHANGED CHAR AND A BIT DIFFERENT OF EVENTS YEAH I STILL HAVE MEMORY BLANK-LIKE EP PLANNING AT HOME IT'S NO LONGER USED
19. Darry was supposed to be the one with crush on Violine, meanwhile Violine is the clueless one. And he kepts on denying and hiding the fact that he likes her.
20. Tucker was supposed to be designed without that red beret in the future until I remember oh yeah that's his trademark beret because fudge, he is still wearing it even at Christmas and just replacing it with a 'Christmas-themed' one XD
21. Darry was supposed to be a bully kid, until I remember Danny and Sam probably get mad if he does so and strictly teach him things... so I ended up making him a show-off big-headed boy who is an a-lister.
22. IF ANYONE DIDN'T REALIZE YET : DARRY WAS THE FIRST OC I MADE BY PULLING OFF MY LIKES/DISLIKES ON A CHARACTER TYPE AND GO MAKING HIM WITH LOGIC. Tho' I have to admit that the goggles part is my own kink of character creating. I used to hate him so much when I made him. But he somehow ended up to be my favorite... I don't even know why =_=''
23. And yes, number 22 means I actually made him to be a hate-able character in DPA. Not kidding. He is supposed to be that annoying A-lister guy you all supposed to hate. The story just happens to have a POV that focuses on him... I guess that breaks my chance ._.
24. I kept trying to show his bad sides tho' like in ep 3 where he is revengeful little shit who revenge words by putting muds in locker
25. I still don't get it why you guys still like this character. At least I am successed to make Violine hate-able by some people tho'.
26. I am trying to balance that every character has a good and bad side in DPA. Like, really.
27. Why am I talking about off topic things here? Back to listing original things... Darry was supposed to be weaker than who he is currently now.
28. I made Butch and one other OC on the last seconds of publishing earlier episodes. They were not that planned.

Since I suddenly reach an amnesia state to what else to list ok I guess those will do as secret unfun-facts :rofl:
And I am pretty much liking the idea how DPA ended up now :3
