A [[High Concept]] Danny Phantom fanfic series in-progress by [[Tropers/Ronnie|Ronnie]], The [[Randy Newman]] Trinity is a series of [[Rule of Three|three]] stories, following side-characters with hanging plot threads, that all intertwine with each other at various points, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|named and mildly themed by Randy Newman songs.]] All are in various points of writing, with one in the process of publishing on [[The Pit of Voles]].

* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5746919/1/Valerie_Gray_Tell_Me_Lies Valerie Gray: Tell Me Lies]''- Chronologically beginning second and ending earliest, which follows Valerie Gray, only a few short weeks after [[Grand Finale|Phantom Planet]], still dealing with Danny's revelation. However, everything takes a backseat when a familiar face shows up and needs her help.

* ''Dani Phantom: When Somebody Loved Me'', the longest by neccessity, and chronologically earliest, picking up after D-Stabilized, with Dani becoming disenchanted with her lifestyle on the road, finding out that the Ecto-dejecto wasn't as permanent as she'd hoped, and doing her darnedest not to need help, before realizing the reason why she went into the world wasn't something she'd find on the road: A place where she could be loved.

* ''Vlad Masters: Half a Man''- After being hit by the Disasteroid, Vlad is slowly losing his powers to Ectoranium poisioning, and must return to Earth. He burns off what's left of his ghost powers after being hit by the meteor saving himself from death upon re-entry into Earth's atmosphere, and is forced into some heavy thought. He [[Lampshade Hanging|realizes that]] [[Motive Decay|he had become a villain]], and decides to [[The Atoner|spend his second chance atoning for his misdeeds.]] But first, he has a loose end he has to tie up... if only he could find her.
