Daniel Dan

Daniel Dan is a character role-played by Bucklington.

Description
Born in 1978, Dan Dan is a convicted stalker formerly known as Dan Blizarian before being adopted by Fingle Dan. He is the mayor of Fishtropolis, and valiantly fought in the dolphin wars. While in the ocean, Dan married his currently "estranged" (he has eluded to killing her recently) fish wife Sherryl, whom he had several fish children with. recently he has re-emerged from the ocean, reigniting with his father Fingle, and meeting his uncle Finguild, who he has developed a close bond with while gambling his life savings away. Despite being a middle-aged man, Dan Dan has the mannerisms and speech patterns of a child, probably due to being illiterate in late childhood. Often in conversation Dan Dan hits his signature /e wait11 pose and death stare that makes some uncomfortable, pictured in the profile photo.

Unemployment
He is still unemployed, but has interviewed to work at Burger Shot, using his dad's gang affiliation to threaten the interviewers. While he remains unemployed, he follows Fingle around while he is on duty, and participates in crime with his uncle Finguild, but has not made any income from robbing homes. His only current form of income is from gambling at the wheel at the casino and receiving money from his paypig father. He hopes in the future to become a cop just like his "hero" dad, who he proudly proclaims to any cop he meets around town.

Uber2
Dan Dan has dipped his toes in the transportation industry with his longtime friend Tex Tucky; starting a taxi service called Uber2. Where they attempt to charge exorbitant prices for fare ($1000 a minute), and fees for 'amenities' used during their ride; such as using the glovebox. They also do not shy away from "Emotional Engineering" their customers; guilt tripping them through various means to get more money out of them. (See Controversies .) They had only one customer on their first day; Brick Block of which they drove him to prison and back to his house. They have made $500 from this service, which they proceeded to gamble away on the wheel at the casino.

Uber2 - Speed therapy
2 days after (2/4/23), Dan decided to try his hand at Uber2 again solo. Little did he know this would lead to his most eventful day yet in the city. He started his day by sending multiple advertisements in the Yellow Pages for Uber2, his business model for Uber2 changed very rapidly until he ultimately decided to go with the Speed Therapy business model. Speed Therapy is where the customer may vent their frustrations and spill their secrets in 'confidentiality' with Dan, while he tries to console them through their troubles while he brings them from A to B. However, Dan fully intended to sell those secrets as information to whoever would buy it, making even more income on the side from this business.

Kevin Malone
Shortly after posting his Speed Therapy advertisement, He got a call by one Kevin Malone. Dan promptly picked Kevin up from the apartments and was tasked to bring him to Kevin's workplace Burger Shot. Dan initially believed Kevin's name was Seven due to Kevin's heavy lisp. During this ride, Dan and Kevin brought up their respective wives; and how rocky their current relationships are. Dan eluded to the fact that he allegedly killed his fish wife to Kevin, saying "I delt with it my own way and haven't had a problem since" and recommended that if Kevin had a problem to just "get rid of them" to which Kevin replied "gotta take out the trash."

After receiving his compensation for the Uber, Dan eventually found himself meeting with his Father Fingle Dan and his police colleagues for lunch and some drinks. Later in the Liquid Library, Dan started talking about his first customer, and bringing up the suspicious things Kevin said regarding his wife. Dan then made Fingle pay him $10,000 for the full information regarding Kevin and how he believes that Kevin is about to murder his wife. Fingle takes note of this and immediately starts an investigation regarding Kevin, Detaining Kevin at Burger Shot and driving him to Senora Desert Sheriff's Office for interrogation. Fingle eventually calls Dan to come down to the Sheriff's office to help with the interrogation, when Dan arrives, he and Kevin go into the interrogation booth and he starts asking him questions such as "How's your day been?" This proves ultimately ineffective as he cannot pry any information from Kevin, eventually threatening Kevin saying that his dad Fingle likes to "Play around with his guns" and that he is "not happy about what he heard you say about your wife". Fingle and Ingvar barge into the room after hearing this, as Fingle immediately destroys the tape recorder as to not make record of the threat under his name. At first, this blunder falls on Dan as there is nothing more they can do with the investigation, as the cops begin to let Kevin free to go. Kevin leaves them a "parting gift", which happens to be a human tooth. Kevin immediately runs away as the cops draw guns on him, eventually cornering him and having to tase him down for detainment. Once detained they search his person and discover more human teeth and a blood bag. This causes him to be fully detained once more for questioning, the police calling Captain Randy Wrangler to the scene. After a rather uneventful line of questioning, the police ultimately decide to let Kevin run free as there is nothing more they can do with a lack of evidence, but not before Kevin threatens Dan saying that he will pay and that the misfits will remember this.

Only a few minutes later as Dan is leaving the desert, He happens to see Kevin on the side of the road and gives him a Uber ride to the city in an attempt to make it up to him. This ride was extremely stressful and scary for Dan. He calls his father on the phone trying to plea for help as the police attempt to locate Dan's car. As Dan makes it halfway into the city, Kevin says that the two of them should "get out of the car and hug it out", Dan hesitantly complies and not soon after Kevin assaults Dan with a hammer, knocking him out on the street. Kevin leaving with the parting words "This isn't over, the misfits will not let this slide." Dan has not seen Kevin since, besides exchanging threatening phone calls with him later that day.

Transportation
Currently he owns two modes of transportation, a bicycle, and his dad's Enus (pronounced ay·nuhs). On the first day of owning the car, he bled out in the car within the first minute of driving it on the road. Later, he blew up his dad's Enus after failing to shut off the engine while filling the tank with gas. He is observed to have learned his lesson from this "beginner's mistake" and has since then shut the engine off when refueling.

Gambling Addiction
Dan Dan is hopelessly addicted to gambling, particularly the Wheel at the casino. This due to his father Fingle Dan showing him the wheel on his first day in the city where he proceeded to win $80,000. Ever since he has been addicted to the wheel, spinning at least once per day.

Dog Killing
Dan Dan and Tex Tucky, in a bid to raise funds to gamble at the casino have started a Taxi Service called Uber2.
