Dani x Jamie

Dani x Jamie is the femslash ship between Dani Clayton and Jamie Taylor from the The Haunting of Bly Manor fandom.

Canon
Dani and Jamie's story begins in the first episode of the series, when in the middle of a wedding, one of the guests begins to tell a ghost story. Her tale begins when a girl named Dani arrives at Bly Manor and first encounters Jamie in the kitchen. From that first moment, it's shown that Jamie will be very important in her life, because this is the narrator's description of the moment: "the gardener didn't even introduce herself to the new Au Pair. She barely looked at her. She simply treated her as if she had always been there. The others assumed they already knew each other. Which, to be honest, was how the Au Pair felt when she saw the young woman."

And while at first glance, Jamie doesn't seem to pay much attention to her new companion, things change when Dani punishes the kids for locking her in the closet and dirtying the muddy landing. Her punishment is to get them to clean it all up and help Jamie in the garden to make amends and to the gardener it seems like something the kids needed. Then, Jamie takes advantage of Owen's arrival to let it slip that she thinks Dani is gorgeous.

The next thing we see is Flora looking through the things Dani has in the suitcase and she finds a pair of glasses. The shape is that of the ghost that Dani always sees reflected everywhere, which it's obviously part of something that haunts her and she gets so nervous that after asking Flora to give them back to her, she has to run out of the house to control herself. That's precisely where Jamie finds her, who sees her crying trying to control the flood of feelings that seeing the demon's glasses has caused her. But instead of leaving, Jamie comes over to comfort her.

Jamie makes her smile and that gives her the courage to keep encouraging her with her words, which are clearly affecting her positively. Once she manages to be sure that Dani is ok, she goes to continue working because she has to do her homework. But not before telling her "Cheer up, Poppins!" That's how Dani earns her nickname.

Later that night, Dani sees Peter Quint hanging around the house and almost has a heart attack. Peter worked in the house and stole money there. They call the police and search the property but find nothing. The people in the house are very nervous about the whole thing. So Dani decides to take a tour of the house herself. She gets extremely scared once again when she rans head on into Jamie who was also out looking because according to her own words, she has already "killed many rats with her shotgun" and Peter was just going to be another one, so she has experience. As the two are going to continue their search, they decide to go on together.

In the end they find nothing, but that night, Owen and Jamie decide to stay overnight at the mansion so as not to leave Jamie, Hannah and the kids alone. So at night, the four of them stay up talking about what a jerk Peter was and how much they all liked Rebecca. Jamie and Dani stand talking together looking at a picture that Peter and Rebecca took together. The babysitter thinks they look like Bonny and Clyde, but Jamie's hatred of Peter has her fuming still. Dani, for her part, is intrigued, because she doesn't understand that Peter has stolen the money, run off and now risks imprisonment for a woman he didn't even take with him. The conversation shows us how the two have the same values about what they are looking for in a relationship. Because the looks they exchange understanding looks while talking.
