#Grumpy and Gloomy (Igor)

[butlerofthecount]

"A tall, thin man in a yellow pinstripe suit and a white overcoat draped over his shoulders appears before Igor" "hellooo", he says to the vulture. I am admiral Kizaru. What kind of creatures are you?"

Attending the door once more before any unwanted hens would break down yet another perfectly fine door that fit with the aesthetic of the castle, the vulture’s yellow eyes had peered up to see that the visitor, or trespasser, was quite irregular. Definitely not something that he had seen ever before, but that did not frighten him. There were things that he had seen that were far worse than this.

“Hmph, it seems like you wouldn’t be good as an ambassador or a diplomat. Anyway, where are my manners? I am Igor, an occupant of this grand abode. Now, what are you doing here?”, Igor dismissively expressed as he did not find the other’s opening dialogue to be well-mannered or gentlemanly-esque.

Halloween is my favorite holiday! (For Igor

“Ah, yes..... Hallows’ Eve, the night when everything ghastly and ghoulish is celebrated and welcomed with open arms. It is a.... pleasant day of tradition, but without the horror, the true appeal to what makes all those malevolent things so dangerous and frightening, it just does not hold the same amount of appeal for me.”

( 🖤to ❤️ Duckula @ Goosewing, because :3c ... and 💙/💜kinda thing with Sid @ Igor? Either in a verse where he stays in the Castle, or even the Vampire AU if you'd like. :'D Because Sid needs someone better than Farmer Stink. lol)

🖤 Enemies + ❤️ Romantic = Romantic Enemies

Duckula & Goosewing -

This one, oof! This will take a good and long while before he’s able to find it in his heart to forgive the wampire for simply existing. You’ve got a senile and silly old vampire hunter that’s always looking for ways on how to vanquish the dark forces, and Duckula, anyone that holds the name really, gets special treatment from him. Why do you think he’s always coming back to him at the end of the day? He may come up with something new and usually it fails, but he wants that glorious revenge. Ludwig’s been needing it to satisfy himself and fulfill his duty that his parents wanted him to do. It’s going to take some encounters that further his understanding of the vegetarian vampire and see that he’s not like the merciless creature that murdered his parents. It can happen, but the wait’s going to be a while. Let’s just hope Dimitrie can withstand the countless assaults until that realization happens. ^^;

Though when it does come to that, he’s not certain on whether losing his mortality should be a good enough price for having love. Who else will dispel of the real evil that lingers in the world if he becomes part vampire before having a child of his own to train? 

💙 family + 💜 mentor/mentee = Familial Mentor and Mentee

Sid & Igor -

Now this one is a lot more easier to see happen as Igor does seem to like it when any incarnation of Duckula would indulge in the hearty and tasty pleasures meat and blood has to offer. He might suspect some differences from his knowledge of older Duckula incarnations and how well they could hold their food, but then again, there was the one family member who tried to eat Castle Duckula (you already know what happened, but she got close to doing it.). He could teach many things, sure, but without the powers of a vampire and seeing that he doesn’t have anything like even the current Duckula has, his disposition might change. However, Igor does have a heart, even if it is one he likes to fill with an icky black void, so who knows. He might try to make Sid a proper vampire...

Maddie has been left unattended in the castle for far too long, having gotten lost in its seemingly endless depths while trying to look for the Count. She can hear someone approaching, already opening her arms for the veggie vamp...only to be met by Igor. She slowly lowers her arms, her cheeks burning like a wildfire. She isn't even sure what to say to save the situation. {tuesdayscanons} 《enjoy having a small hen staring at you in fear, Igor lol》

@tuesdayscanons

This was rather an unpleasant revelation that he was forced to abide with as there was no news of the master having a romantic interest or a “girlfriend” as he called it. Definitely something he would like to have some notification of beforehand at first. If this one was not fit to be the count’s love, then she would get re-purposed for something else. Perhaps as a drink for the vampires for whenever they would come over for their next family reunion or occasional drop by.

As the hen practically stood in front of him so awkwardly, the vulture’s yellow eyes were not very enthused or understanding of what she was trying to do. The position of his beak however, remained the same and so was his posture. Igor could see that the girl was embarrassed, and would not try to pour any more salt on her wounds there, but he would in another area. 

“I take it that this castle is a bit… difficult for you to navigate through?”

“Igor... I’m going to try and put this the niiiiiicest way possible.” Duckula says with an overly-big grin, voice noticeably strained as he keeps it a sweet, gentile tone. With a tilt of his head and raising his arms in a small shrug, he says (still with that ‘polite’ grin) “But if you mention blood ONE more time, weeeeeeell... Heh, I’m going to scream.” (Fffffff... Duckula is trying so hard not to Lose It right now. XD He’s ‘this close’ to going off on a rant about how gd disgusting it is.)

Cue the butler squinting his sickly and sleep needing eyes at the lord. It was the same old tune with the both of them, but he would not relent on his end of the conflict. The master should seek to merge his way back to the family roots, the lineage he was destined to uphold, his family’s legacy as a vampire. If Duckula wouldn’t willingly, then he might have to resort to some of his more, subtle tactics.

“Oh….. NO, Milord!! I, I ask you to not pierce our eardrums with such demented wails. There are things that even I enjoy having, like the ability to hear much… better screams and music.” Igor pleaded as he held his slightly short arms up in defense of any cries the count would make. To counter this, he fortunately had something he was willing to give the duck. “Here, milord. This is a contract, one that will allow you to be free of me reminding you to be your bloodline and your duties. Just sign it down in the signature line below and you never have to hear my complaints again. Some of them.” the vulture mentioned as he pulled out a piece of parchment paper from one of his suit jacket pockets and presented it to the vampire duck. He may have been saying all of that, but the contract’s contents were something different, something different from what Igor explained….

[butlerofthecount]

"Mister Igor, you leave my Duckyboos alone! He can 'ave 'is 'air whatever way 'e wants! 'E can 'ave as many flamingoes in 'is 'air as 'e wants, so long as the flamingoes don't mind, of course." It seemed Nanny may have confused 'flames' with 'flamingoes'. Typical. (Nanny from ketchupblood)

@ketchupblood

“Oh Nanny, Nanny. The lord always gets what he wants, except for fortune and fame, whether it be wacky adventures that we endure, or the silly encounters with those terrible vampire hunters. But what’s the use of explaining this to you? He’ll just have to be more observant on how others view him. A figure to be feared is much preferred than a figure that is mocked.” the butler claimed as he rolled his sick and droopy eyes away from the hen. 

“Wait, did you mention ‘flamingos?’ Why, that is even worse than the bright flames! Milord! Please reconsider this notion of customizing your attire around flamingos. You will thank me later!!”

[butlerofthecount]

Are you excited for Christmas Igor?! 😄

“Hrm…. I am not one for Christmas… To be frank I abhor the holiday. It embodies a lot of aspects I despise in life, but after acquiring an axe from Santa one time… Perhaps I might feel a little, bolt of joy for it.”

[butlerofthecount]

💚+🖤 (For Igor because obvious reasons.)

💚 rivals + 🖤 enemies = Enemy Rivalry

Andy & Igor

Hm, I know we discussed about this before and I don’t have much to go against this. I’m all for the idea though if they are going to be enemies and rivals at the same time, wouldn’t it be a little redundant or monotonous since Andy and Igor already won’t like each other, but they also don’t have much to respect or find themselves as challenging the other in a similar interest as they have none really. There are all sorts of rivalries and all of that, though the one that we’re going for is already made clear by them being enemies. That’s about the most basic form of rivalry you can get before going a bit more complex. 

Again, I’m all up for the idea, but just was kind of confused by this. Probably was to specify as there are multiple types of rivalries but if they are going to be enemies too it just seems pretty clear how they would feel about each other from there.

[butlerofthecount]

Are you implying your eyes aren't menacing and sinister? But I thought you had a degree in evilness!

“…You know what I meant. And yes, I do have a degree in evilness! However, my presence should be lower than that of the master’s, but since the count is so… negligent of his heritage, I suppose my eyes will have that effect leave a lasting impression on you.”

[butlerofthecount]

Doesn't Nanny have pretty eyes?

“No, by the infernal overlords of the Netherrealm, no! That hen’s eyes are about as average as mine are. There is nothing special about eyes until they become menacing and sinister, something that Nanny is very incapable of achieving.”

[butlerofthecount]

I can kind of see where they're coming from, with you, nanny, and duckula, you're kinda of like a little nuclear family

“Hmph,  I would disagree with such drivel. Nanny and I are merely only doing our duty and tending to the count and the Duckula lineage as we have been doing for centuries. There… may be times where I have shown some signs of distress for the young lord, but I assure you, they were out of respect for the Duckula bloodline, That is my first and foremost priority, preserving the vampire dynasty and I treat it as such.”

[butlerofthecount]

Happy Halloween Igor. I do hope your night is dreadful, and filled with frights and ghouls a plenty.

“Why thank you, ominous one. I do too hope that this Hallow’s Eve will bring about much for my delight and may it be for yours as well.”

[butlerofthecount]

(To Igor) "And the greatest spell you'll know, is how the magic of friendship grows."

“….What form of horrid blasphemy is this nonsense?! The ‘magic of friendship’ is nothing more than a tall tale they lie to children when they are young to fill their dreams with meaningless drivel about how ‘good’ it is to be nice, kind, and serene. Bah!! Wretched garbage. Such things like that deserve to be ‘taken out’ and ‘put in its place’.”

[butlerofthecount]

' IGOR ! why can't you be a little supportive of me ... like Nanny ?! ' >:(

“Perhaps it stems from how Nanny is… not so sharp as to most things in this world, whereas I understand what you are, and who you are meant to be? Besides, you know all too well that I dislike the… niceties. Bleh, utter drivel it is…”

[butlerofthecount]

IGOR how do u feel about reboot duckula ? Since he's more villainous than his predecessor, are you proud ? :3c

“There are aspects to this incarnation that are to be admired, while others to be revolted by. One of those repulsive elements is what the lord has done to his hair. Ugh, utterly unattractive and instills more goofiness than fear in a victim’s heart. I could go on and on, but then I might ‘step out of line.’”
