#(It's funny because I can't help but think about how 2017!Fenton would act in the same situations... and it's pretty different XD )

(I’m finally watching OG Ducktales... Okay, I’m watching the episodes with Fenton. XD I was curious to see how he is in that show, and I just... He’s so different... yet similar... It’s only the second episode and he’s been called a dunderhead, idiot, birdbrain, etc... :’D Yeah, he’s screwed up a lot. But he’s trying his best. lol I’m just imagining how he’d fit into the 2017 canon because of the blatant changes I’ve noticed. Like, he is a smol bean... but in other ways than my fluffy son. Not to mention, perhaps not to the same degree?)
(I’ve noticed that while 2017!Fenton’s main goal is helping others (he also wants to prove himself, but that is a side effect of his insecurities and even stems from his initial goal) OG!Fenton puts a lot of emphasis on making something of himself. Of moving up in the world, getting more, and receiving recognition for what he does. Helping others is a bonus to the fact that now he gets to be a ‘metal somebody’. The order of their goals seem to be reversed. For example, when Scrooge's gold was being washed away, OG!Fenton’s concern was that he’d lose his job and have to return to a dull life of literal bean-counting. While 2017!Fenton would have been more concerned with retrieving the gold for Mr. McDuck.)
(But OG!Fenton’s desires don’t make him less empathetic than 2017!Fenton. They reflect the differences in their lives. While Fenton had M’Ma to support him, OG!Fenton’s Ma’ma is... less nurturing. With the complete lack of attention he receives at home, his personal life, and at his old job (he was the best employee and his boss didn’t even remember his name) It makes sense he’d be desperate for it and focused on a new life. A better life. 2017!Fenton was raised by a policewoman with a strong sense of justice. Of course, he is going to admire her and what she stands for. Helping others and keeping them safe is a pivotal part of what he thinks is important. Duckburg and its citizens are going to be prioritized above himself.)
(Anyways... These are just some things that I noticed... and now rambled about. :’D )
