Nail Fungus Unveiled: Your Guide to Conquering the Unwanted Guest
Nail fungus – that unwelcome visitor that turns your once-beautiful nails into a less-than-stellar sight. But don't fret, because this article is here to hold your hand through the world of nail fungus home treatments.
We're diving into the nitty-gritty, from understanding the triggers and symptoms of nail fungus to exploring natural remedies and lifestyle tweaks that might just rescue your nails. So, get ready for a comprehensive journey on how to tackle this issue right from the comfort of your own home.
And hey, we've got you covered on when it's time to call in the pros for some extra help.
Tumblr media
Getting to the Root of Nail Fungus
Nail fungus doesn't discriminate – it can pay a visit to anyone. The culprits behind it are a combination of factors, including damp environments, a weakened immune system, and not-so-great foot hygiene.
Nail Fungus Home Treatment
Onychomycosis, or nail fungus, is an infection caused by fungi that thrive in warm and moist conditions.
If your feet are constantly exposed to moisture, you might as well be rolling out the red carpet for nail fungus. Think tight shoes or socks that don't give your feet room to breathe, athletes who work up a sweat during workouts, and those shared showers at the gym or public pools.
But wait, there's more. People with compromised immune systems are more vulnerable to nail fungus. Conditions like diabetes, HIV/AIDS, undergoing cancer treatments, and specific medications can leave your immune system struggling against these fungal invaders.
And let's not forget about foot hygiene. Neglecting to keep your feet clean and dry is like setting up a five-star hotel for fungi.
The worst part? If left untreated, nail fungus can cause pain, discomfort, and even lasting damage to your nails. In severe cases, it might extend its unwelcome visit to other parts of your body. So, if you're at risk or see symptoms, don't delay – seeking treatment sooner rather than later can save you a lot of trouble.
Signs and Symptoms of Nail Fungus
Spotting nail fungus doesn't require Sherlock Holmes-level detective skills. It's all about noticing changes in your nails – like discoloration, brittleness, and an odd shape. Depending on the severity, your nails might go from their normal hues to shades of yellow, white, brown, or even black. It's like a makeover gone wrong for your nails.
But there's more to this story. Nail fungus comes with its own set of problems:
Unwanted Visitors: Weakened nails can invite bacterial infections.
Nail Distress: If you ignore nail fungus, it can lead to permanent nail damage, causing pain and functional issues.
Oh, and don't think kids are immune. While it's rarer in children, nail fungus can still affect them – especially those little water enthusiasts, like swimmers. Parents, be vigilant about your child's foot hygiene and jump into action if you spot any signs of nail fungus.
Nature's Solutions: Going Natural to Battle Nail Fungus
Ready to roll with a natural approach? Many folks turn to home remedies first. Essential oils take center stage here, with tea tree oil stealing the spotlight. This oil, extracted from the Melaleuca alternifolia tree, boasts terpinen-4-ol, a compound known to fight fungi. Studies hint that tea tree oil might be a worthy opponent against the fungal troublemakers causing your nail issues.
And then there's oregano oil, another essential oil that packs an antifungal punch. It's armed with thymol and carvacrol, compounds with potential in knocking out various types of fungi. But a quick word of caution – while these oils might sound fantastic, research on their nail fungus-fighting abilities isn't quite complete.
Sure, these natural remedies sound enticing, but hold your horses! Essential oils can sometimes cause skin irritation or allergies in certain individuals. So, before you embark on an essential oil journey, have a chat with a healthcare professional.
Tweaking Your Lifestyle for Happier Nails
Guess what? Your everyday choices can actually make a difference. Let's start with what's on your plate:
Probiotic Power: Foods like yogurt and kefir, chock-full of probiotics, can help balance the bacteria in your gut.
Fungus Fighters: Garlic, onions, coconut oil, and apple cider vinegar are your allies in this fungus-battling journey. Don't forget about your foot hygiene:
Stay Clean: Give your feet a regular wash with soap and water.
Stay Dry: After showers or dips in the pool, ensure your feet are completely dry – especially between the toes.
Let Them Breathe: Opt for shoes made from natural materials to keep your feet well-ventilated.
No Sharing Allowed: Keep your towels and socks to yourself to prevent spreading the infection.
Nail Care Matters: Trim your nails straight across to avoid ingrown toenails – a favorite hangout for fungi.
Seeking Help: When to Bring in the Experts
Wondering when to throw in the towel and reach out to the professionals? If your home remedies aren't hitting the mark or if your symptoms are getting worse, it's time to tap into the expertise of the pros. Nail fungus, or onychomycosis, isn't one to play nice – it can manifest as thickened nails, brittle or crumbly nails, odd shapes, not-so-pleasant odors, or those telltale nail discolorations that scream "I need help!" In severe cases, it might even spread to neighboring nails or skin.
Ignoring nail fungus isn't just about cosmetic concerns. It can bring you pain, make walking a misery, and even lower your overall quality of life. And if you're dealing with diabetes or a compromised immune system, it's a whole new level of serious.
So, what's the solution? The pros are armed with oral antifungal meds, creams, laser therapy, and even surgical nail removal for stubborn cases. If your home remedies aren't cutting it or the infection is taking over, it's time to enlist the help of the experts.

I really want to see your drawings of the Kaiju AU, I can’t stop thinking of Ragebloom as a giant hedgehog with lots of flowers and mushrooms on his back. Maybe with large sturdy nails that helps him create burrows and pick stuff up.
And he IS JUST THE CUTEST
I am so sorry this took me so long to answer, but I am finally feeling confident in my arting ability to attempt to draw giant Kaiju bois! I'm currently working on each design, so expect to see more soon enough!
Since you really wanted to see Ragebloom/Riddle's Kaiju form, here's a concept I was finally able to narrow down!
Tumblr media
Since he is part plant, this means that Ragebloom/Riddle's "tail" continues to grow, wilt, and experience the same issues as any other plant. Here's some little headcanons on our boi here~!
When he sneezes or shakes his body, there's a chance that some of his quills will go flying and may accidentally stick one of the other kaiju. Shellshock/Trey is the only one who doesn't have to worry too much about this due to his shell.
Prunes his "tail" with his teeth to get it at a decent length that can still defend while still retain his regal status as pack leader. Rarely lets anyone else touch it except for Shellshock/Trey, Crystalflayer/Vil, Crewelfang/Crewel, and Yuu. Smells like grass trimmings and sap when he's pruning the leaves.
His "tail" can hide thorns and vines that can be used to strike like a flail/whip or restrain his target.
When he's feeling sick, his colors fade and his "tail" turns brown. Major pruning is needed if black or white speckled leaves are found to prevent him from getting severely ill.
Rarely ever gets caught in the rain, but he does enjoy a good soak in a pool of water to rehydrate himself. He is part plant, after all, so he has to maintain the proper amount of hydration to survive. When he's done soaking, though, he smells like damp earth.
Uses his long claws to dig holes in the earth, using it as a "nest" so he can circulate nutrients from the soil into his body. He never beds down in the exact same spot for longer than a week before he moves to ensure the nutrients have a chance to replenish.
He can grow mushrooms on his body, though he rarely does these days after a run-in with Heartbinder/Floyd terrorized him while he was trying to give some to Heartshocker/Jade. These mushrooms can serve a variety of different purposes, ranging from creating medicine to creating noxious poisons.
Ragebloom/Riddle is the only kaiju besides Echofang/Lilia who is immune to most paralyzing agents and poisons, as he's able to absorb said toxins into his system and create the very plant/fungus that produces it.

Troll, Cave (Modern)
The largest and strongest variety of troll is conversely the stupidest and least magical. Cave trolls are animalistic brutes whose intelligence has diminished, preventing them from using trollcraft. In exchange, they’re nearly as large and strong as giants. Their bodies are covered in loose plate-like armor that makes them resemble the very stone they turn into when exposed to high-wavelength light. Living in caves means they very rarely have to deal with petrification. What’s more, cave trolls have a regenerative healing factor which nullifies most forms of damage. Even if one is killed it can come back to life after an interval of time, if the conditions are right. Cave trolls are solitary and fight ferociously when they find one another. When not fighting tooth and nail, they feed on dungeon fungus and rocks (or rather, the nutrients hidden between the minerals). Sometimes dungeon-dwelling orcs and goblins will try and tame a cave troll as a bruiser. Nine times out of ten, it doesn’t end well. 
-Habitat: Caves and dungeons. -Slayer Tips: Take advantage of their lack of intelligence to lure them into traps. Cave trolls sink like stones in water, and can’t revive themselves from asphyxiation.
--
This one is marked "modern" because it's based on modern depictions of trolls; your Lord of the Rings and D&D (which is where the regeneration comes from). Some of you may remember this design was originally a LotR cave troll. Different varieties of troll will come soon.

I was looking through past asks I sent and I saw you said to remind you to share your nether head cannons and I think I will bring it back up
So what are your thoughts
:D Here they are!
-There used to be a robust trade network between the Nether and the Overworld. Humans and Piglins came and went between the dimensions, exchanging goods and services.
-Piglin culture is less community-oriented then ours. Piglins lived in Bastion strongholds which acted as super-condensed towns. These towns were connected by long bridges, what are now Fortresses. The Fortress interiors were used as forts or rest stops.
-The Nether was on the cusp of a Golden Age with the discovery of Netherite, a complex alloy that allowed for the development of unprecedented technology. Soon Netherite could be found used near everywhere in the Nether.
-That is, until the harmful radiation the alloy gave off was discovered too late. Those who were exposed for too long became sick and died... before rising again in undeath.
-Efforts were made to stop future exposure. All netherite objects were compacted into rough cubes and quickly buried deep below the surface, roughly spread apart to not have any single location of high toxicity while waiting for their radioactivity to slowly, slowly decay.
-The bridges between Bastions were broken to eliminate any accidental transport of unregulated netherite between towns. Many human and piglins guardsmen were left stranded in the remaining Fortress interiors, slowly dying to sickness. Desperate, they ate blaze powder, immolating themselves from the inside and leaving their undead skeletal remains charred and blackened.
-Finally, the unafflicted humans and piglins escaped to the Overworld, breaking the nether portals behind them. However it was impossible not to bring the disease with them, which was able to afflict the piglins rapidly in the lowered temperature. The surviving humans were able to develop a cure in time to save them all, but the undead plague remains to this day. This is where all undead mobs come from.
-Back in the Nether, those who were near death were banished from the Bastions. They died in great valleys, their souls trapped in the sand below and their skeletons wandering aimlessly above. I haven't decided what the giant skeletons belonged to yet.
-Without apples in the Nether there is no cure, only prevention. Gold is worn at all times to protect oneself from the disease. Those without gold are inviting the sickness upon themselves, and it's good practice to kill and throw them into lava on sight to prevent future spread.
-Over many years, society collapsed in the Nether. Piglins now roam in packs or on their own, living semi-nomadically. They journey around small territories, hunting and gathering as they do so. Some larger gangs can secure a broken-down Bastion to squat in, but they remain in disrepair as hunting for food and gathering protective gold take up most of the time and energy.
-Gold is the main currency, though it is hardly regulated. The main rule is that gold is exchanged for some survival resource, and survival resources are traded for gold. If you hand someone a gold ingot, they will judge it's worth before giving you an equivalent item in return. In game some of these seem useless. But bottles of drinkable water are especially valuable (I headcanon that warped fungus trunks can be tapped for water as well, but all the same it is difficult to gather at all), as well as rare iron nuggets scavenged from old Overworld items, the buckles off of belts and the nails out of tools.
-Nowadays, many centuries later, ancient debris clumps have gone through their half-life, and can be melted down and reforged into a new, non-toxic alloy.

Nail Care: A Comprehensive Guide to Healthy Nails
Tumblr media
Introduction
Nail care is often overlooked in our daily routines, yet it plays a significant role in maintaining overall hygiene and grooming. Understanding the importance of nail care and the structure of nails is crucial for achieving healthy and beautiful nails.
Understanding Nail Health
Nail Anatomy
Nails are more than just a canvas for nail polish; they are complex structures comprising various components. The nail plate, the visible part of the nail, covers the nail bed, which is the skin beneath the nail. The cuticle acts as a protective barrier, while the lunula, the whitish half-moon shape at the base of the nail, is a visible part of the matrix.
Common Nail Problems
Brittle nails, characterized by easy breakage and splitting, are a common concern. Weak nails lack strength and may bend or tear easily. Nail fungus, or onychomycosis, is a fungal infection that affects the nails, leading to discoloration and thickening. Ingrown nails occur when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain and inflammation.

Tumblr media
Proper Nail Hygiene
Maintaining proper nail hygiene involves regular cleaning, moisturizing, and trimming. Use a mild soap and a soft brush to clean under the nails, and moisturize regularly to prevent dryness. Trim nails straight across to avoid ingrown nails and shape them with a nail file.
Nail Products and Ingredients
Choosing the right nail products is essential for nail health. Opt for nail polish brands that are free from harmful chemicals like formaldehyde and toluene. Nail strengtheners containing ingredients like biotin and keratin can help fortify weak nails. Cuticle oil and nail creams enriched with vitamins and moisturizing agents provide nourishment to the nails and surrounding skin.
Lifestyle Factors Affecting Nail Health
Diet and Nutrition
A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients like protein, vitamins, and minerals is crucial for healthy nails. Incorporate foods such as eggs, nuts, leafy greens, and salmon, which are high in protein, vitamins A and C, and omega-3 fatty acids, into your diet.
Hydration and Water Intake
Hydration is key to maintaining nail health. Drink an adequate amount of water throughout the day to prevent dehydration, which can lead to dry and brittle nails.
Stress Management
Stress can have a detrimental effect on nail health, leading to nail biting and other habits that damage the nails. Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga to reduce stress levels and promote nail health.
Tumblr media
Nail Care for Different Nail Types
Different nail types require tailored care routines. Normal nails benefit from regular maintenance and proper hygiene practices. Dry nails require extra moisture and hydration, while oily nails may need products to control excess oil production. Combination nails may exhibit characteristics of both dry and oily nails, requiring a balanced approach to care.
Professional Nail Care Services
Visiting a nail salon for manicures and pedicures can provide professional care and pampering for your nails. Treatments such as nail buffing, cuticle trimming, and nail polishing can enhance the appearance and health of your nails.
Nail Care During Seasons and Weather Changes
Adjust your nail care routine according to seasonal changes. In winter, cold temperatures and dry air can strip moisture from the nails, leading to dryness and brittleness. In summer, exposure to sunlight and chlorine from swimming pools can affect nail health. Use protective measures such as wearing gloves in winter and applying sunscreen to nails in summer.
Tumblr media
Importance of Regular Check-Ups
Schedule regular check-ups with a dermatologist or nail specialist to assess your nail health. Early detection of nail problems can prevent further damage and ensure prompt treatment. Keep an eye out for changes in nail color, texture, or shape, and seek professional advice if you notice any abnormalities.
Natural Remedies and DIY Nail Care
Explore natural remedies and DIY treatments to enhance nail health. Homemade nail masks and soaks using ingredients like olive oil, honey, and lemon juice can nourish and strengthen the nails. Herbal treatments such as tea tree oil and neem oil have antifungal properties that can help combat nail fungus.

Conclusion
Nail care is an essential aspect of personal grooming and hygiene. By understanding the anatomy of nails, adopting proper nail care practices, and addressing lifestyle factors that affect nail health, you can achieve strong, healthy nails. Remember to prioritize regular check-ups and explore natural remedies for optimal nail care. With consistent care and attention, you can maintain beautiful nails that complement your overall appearance.

Farewell Fungal Nails: My Positive Experience with ProNail Complex
I've always been particular about my nails. I love having them painted with a fun colour or a classic French manicure, but unfortunately, for a while there, fungal issues plagued my toenails. Discoloured, thick, and frankly, unsightly, they made me self-conscious and limited my footwear choices.
A Natural Solution
After trying various over-the-counter creams with little success, I stumbled upon ProNail Complex. What initially drew me to the product was its focus on natural ingredients. As someone who generally prefers a more holistic approach to health and beauty, this resonated with me. The formula boasts a blend of nourishing oils like chia seed, lavender, and lemongrass, along with vitamins and other fortifying elements.
Easy Application
ProNail Complex comes in a convenient spray bottle, making application a breeze. The mist is fine and easily reaches all areas of the affected nail. The instructions are straightforward: simply spray the product onto the affected nails after showering and bedtime. No harsh scrubbing or messy creams – a huge plus in my book!
Effective Results Take Time
I adhered to the recommended twice-daily application for three months. It's important to be patient with fungal nail treatments, as these issues don't clear up overnight. However, within a few weeks, I noticed a subtle improvement. The discolouration began to fade, and the overall appearance of my nails started to look healthier.
Long-Term Success
By the three-month mark, the transformation was undeniable. My toenails were clear, strong, and growing back healthily. I was finally able to wear sandals and open-toed shoes with confidence again. I've continued to use ProNail Complex occasionally even after achieving my desired results, simply as a preventative measure.
Beyond Toenail Fungus
While I primarily used ProNail Complex for my toenails, the product claims to be effective for both fingernails and toenails. It also highlights benefits beyond just treating fungal infections, boasting the ability to strengthen and nourish nails, promoting healthy growth, and improving overall nail appearance.
Conclusion
If you're struggling with fungal nails, I highly recommend giving ProNail Complex a try. Its natural formula, ease of use, and impressive results make it a fantastic option. While I can only speak to my own experience with toenails, the additional benefits advertised make it a well-rounded nail care solution. Remember, consistency is key with fungal nail treatments, but with some patience, ProNail Complex could be the answer to achieving healthy, beautiful nails once again.

Note
A lot of athletes use black nail polish as a protective barrier i.e. to lessen the chances of split/cracked nails and prevent bacteria or fungus from creeping into said cracks. A lot of MMA and footballers do this and it seems hockey players are now doing the same.
That's actually really interesting, I have never heard about this before.
Though, I believe that in Pasta's case, it was more of a fashion statement considering this is the first time he has done so and it was the NHL Awards red carpet.

Path (CW: Horror, Gore, Undeath)
The forest is quiet, for this time of day. No birdsong, no mosquitoes whining for blood, nor even is there the insufferable drone of cicadas, looking for a partner to spend the rest of their short lives with. The only sound I walk with is the swaying of the leaves in the trees. The only smells are the wildflowers that line the beaten dirt path on the way to civilization.
How many days has it been? That doesn’t matter, all that matters is how long until I reach my destination: Baldur’s Gate. How long of a walk did that elf say it was? Six more days, maybe seven? I think that’s right. My head can hardly process the information. I keep getting distracted by smells not of the forest. My own ambient fungal smell. The smell of the sweat leaking from my pores under my scales, rotten vegetation and fouled water. It was impossible to avoid, no matter how much I scrub before showing myself to the more…”civilized” members of society. That doesn’t matter now. Not when I have sweeter smells to mask it. The leather I drape my body with. The natural smoke from the fires I sleep beside. The beautiful gore that elf left under my fingernails.
I raise my hand up to inspect the color. The dulled and rusty red contrasting against the jet black of my claws and scales. It has been a day or two since I met with them. Such beautiful dreams they left me with. Imagery of the sounds they made: the screams, the squelching of their offal as my nails stabbed and sliced and skinned. The smells they produced: the sweet scent of their blood, the less sweet scent of the mess they made upon themselves as they died, the dissolved apple pie as I split open their stomach. It had taken all evening to bake that pie. No matter, I can make another. They can still help.
I look over my shoulder at the shambling mess beside me, covered in spores and fungus. Mushrooms protruding from the eyes and golden hair caked and matted with blood and slime mold. Wounds I had left that would leave the thing immobile have already been filled by my children, the mycelia that extend across their form, stitching them closed and preventing it from falling apart and being freed from its service. It can bring me more apples. I’m sure the forest will provide. If not the forest, the caravan ahead of me. I can hear them laughing, singing songs of summer and of the baking of bread. I can smell their beautiful ingredients. Traders from the warmer south come to deliver to the city. I will stay behind, wait for them to make camp. Then I can make friends. Friends who can give me ingredients. Friends who can help me mask my scent. Friends who can help me bake afterwards.

I started work in a warehouse where gloves are a requirement for safety. The warehouse is hot and I sweat all day, so my hands are pruney by lunch. Does anyone have any tips/experience with preventing nail fungus?

17Darkwing Script - Part Two
Well, a bunch of you enjoyed the first part, so I decided to write part two! ... And intended it to end there, but I wound up writing the entire rest of the episode. Whaddya know.
Part of this was lifted from a RP I did with a friend. Small shout-outs to the original “Fungus Amongus” episode. Again, hope you all enjoy!
[ Inside the concert hall, the back of the stage. Drake has recovered from whatever noise he made, and begins darting about, hiding behind boxes, props, etc, as he tries to formulate what to say.]
 Drake: Ms. McCawber, a pleasure, I’m sure. [Clicks tongue, shakes head.]  Uh, Morgana, what’s up, you come here often? [A long groan, he hates every word that came out of his mouth.] Miss Morgana, you… [says his words slowly as he comes to a realization.] … have no security at all, do you?
 [Now that he’s seen there’s no guards or anything to hide from, he walks around normally, puzzled.]
 Drake: Huh! Strange. They have all that money for all those special effects, but nothing to prevent some crazy stalker from breaking in? … Not that I am one. Can’t stalk someone you’ve never met! … Why am I still saying things, stop saying things!
 [ Cut to the inside of Morgana’s dressing room. A tome is open, the pages glowing. Morgana has her fingers above it, moving her hands and fingers about in a ritualistic manner. Her hair and the camera angle hide her face. She starts humming softly, every so often adding a dark singing “ahhh” to it.
 Cut back to Drake. He stops, puts a hand to his “ear”, able to hear the music. He follows it to a door, where Morgana’s name has been filled it on a tilted nameplate. He holds up a fist to knock, but stops, getting that droopy-lidded stupid look again. The music has an effect on him, but not in a magical way. He uncurls his fist to sway one finger around like a conductor, and starts humming along, eyes closed.
 Back inside the dressing room, Morgana lifts her head a bit, hearing his humming. Her face still isn’t shown, and she closes the book, which ceases glowing. She keeps up her song, looking in the direction of the door. Back to Drake – the two are now humming in perfect harmony. (Hint hint.) But as he blissfully keeps it up, he doesn’t see the door behind him opening. Morgana very calmly leans over to his side, still humming, tilting her head at him, her head next to his own. Drake turns his head, still lost in her voice, and finally opens his eyes to see her. His smile drops after a hot second, and he lets out a startled yelp, flailing backwards and crashing into a before-unseen pile of musical instruments, for the second time. He scrambles not to drop any, catching them awkwardly in his hands and feet.]
 Drake: Why are these everywhere?! [Stops, remembering where he is and who is there. He awkwardly clears his throat.] You’re… right there! [Pause.] I just got here.
 Morgana: [stands to her full height, arms crossed. She’s amused.] Yes, I am, and no, you didn’t.
 Drake: Right. [Very delicately starts putting the instruments down.]
 Morgana: [Inspects her nails, leaning on the doorway.] I typically don’t get requests for encores, so this is a new one. Now then… [She looks at him, eyebrows raised.] Who are you?
 Drake: [Now standing proper, but still veryvery nervous.] Mall! Mallard! I’m… Drake Mallard. [His voice is doing the equivalent of falling down the stairs.] I’m a fan! As of… several… moments ago.
 Morgana: Hm. [Eyeroll, shoulder shrug.] I suppose I should be grateful to have a new fan at all... I'd say it's nice to meet you, but that does beg the question –[Now she begins pointing at him, a mix of casual and wariness.]- of why you were here, if you weren't a fan before?
 Drake: That’s right - Gosalyn! [He seems to have literally forgotten her, and everything else, until questioned. He straightens up, putting his fluster aside for the moment.] See, there’s this kid who’s been a fan of yours for much, much longer than I have! She’s been through a lot, and she really wanted your autograph, but she couldn’t afford to miss hockey – she loves hockey, so good at it – so I told her I’d get it for her. [He’s being sincere, he really wants this for Gosalyn.] It would just mean so much for her if I could get one for her… please?
 [A close up of Morgana’s face. The teasing temptress look has been replaced by one of quiet, surprised happiness. It’s not that the other expression wasn’t the real her, but this may be the Morgana that’s usually hidden. She’s sincerely touched, a hand to her heart. It will come up in later episodes that no one’s ever asked for an autograph before, which makes this moment and expression all the more poignant.]
 Morgana: [Her voice a touch softer.] … Really? My autograph? [But once the words are out there in the open, she realizes how pathetic that sounds.] I-I mean… is that all? No sweat.  [Her voice and mannerisms are back to “normal”. Camera shows both of them, with Drake a little confused at the initial reaction – surely she must get such requests all the time – and Morgana re-enters her dressing room. As she walks on, she keeps talking.] Usually when parents talk to me about their kids, they’re being all whiny and complaining about me corrupting their “little angels”.
 [As Morgana talks, Drake pokes his head into the room, unsure if he’s allowed inside. Camera pan across the room – spider-webs, a cracked mirror, bats hanging from the ceiling, it’s all very witchy. Back to Drake who raises his eyebrows, but decides to walk in anyway.]
 Drake: Some parents are just too uptight about that kind of thing. You wouldn’t believe the objections some of them have to simple episodes of TV shows! [He rests his hand on a table, which has a spider. Which growls at him. Drake stares, and quickly moves his hand away.] I mean, I’m still new at this whole parenting things, but Gosalyn’s a good kid!
 [As Drake goes on about Gosalyn’s good qualities, the camera focuses on Morgana, who has her back to him. She looks nervous, looking around her dresser in a panic. She doesn’t have proper autograph materials on hand, since she’s never given them. Her eyes fall on the tome. She glances back at Drake, smiling fondly at his gushing, then back at the tome, frowns, then shrugs it off. A page or two is harmless. She picks up a pen, opens the tome, and rips out a page just as Drake is shutting up.]
 Morgana: [Turns around, writing the autograph while saying it out loud. She’s back to being confident and in charge. ] To Gosalyn Mallard. Never stop being a real one. You’re not made to fake out. Signed, Morgana McCawber. [Finished, she hands the autograph over.]
 Drake: [Close up of him accepting it, pleased.] Yes, good, this is perfect! Thank you so much! She’s gunna love this! [He thumbs the paper a bit.] Nice autograph paper too! It looks like mysterious runes… guess that’s all part of the aesthetic, huh?
 Morgana: [Cut to her, and the tome beginning to glow suspiciously.] Uh… yeah. Aesthetic. [She flicks her finger, making the light bounce off the book and fly into a corner while Drake isn’t looking. She rolls her shoulder, sashaying over to Drake who’s still admiring the autograph.] But while you’re still here… [Close up of Drake’s head, and suddenly Morgana’s finger is touching the underside of his beak. His eyes almost pop, instantly distracted. She drags her finger to the right, where she is standing, and tilts his head upwards at her, eyelashes all a flutter.] Does my newest fan want anything else?
 Drake: [Close up of his face again, his eyes momentarily reflecting/only showing her, because that’s really all his brain can comprehend at this second. His brain is mush.] Uhhhhhhhhh. [After he blinks, his eyes are normal again. He starts to regain some form of brain function.] W-well! I'm sure you're busy, I... don't want to take up too much of your time. ...But I also... would want to take up more of your time? [Hard swallow, his heart’s racing a million miles an hour. Why can’t he talk normal?!] Your… autograph’s so good, it… kind of makes me want one of my own?
 [Camera to show both of them. Morgana chuckles, and flicks his beak upward – it makes a ‘boinginging’ cartoony sound effect for a second. Drake doesn’t seem to mind – she could hit him with a 2x4 and he probably wouldn’t mind right now. Cut to Morgana now ripping out a second page, once again writing as she speaks.]
 Morgana: Drake Mallard. You put a spell on me. Morgana McCawber. [She leans over to hand it over, and this time when he takes the autograph, he holds both pieces of paper to his chest.] I’d better see both you and Gosalyn at our next gig. I do so hate being disappointed.
 Drake: [Nodding enthusiastically] I – I do not aim to disappoint! I will be there, rain, sleet, or snow! … And Gosalyn too of course. I’m really looking forward seeing a lot more of you, Morgana! [Beat, as he hears how that sounds.] A-a lot more of your music, of course! That’s… what I meant.
 Morgana: [Chuckles. He’s cute.] And I’ll be looking for your face in the crowd… or wherever else it turns up.
 Drake: [Surprised.] Really?
 Morgana: [Hands behind her back, walking around and behind him, nodding her head to a side. ] Really! It’s… nice to have someone to talk to, once in a while. Someone who can really listen, someone who can just be themselves –
 [The door suddenly slams open as Morgana is front if it, almost but not hitting her. She stops walking. Now in the doorway is the Cyclops, who shouts her name.]
 “Cyclops”: MORGANA!
 Morgana: [Deflating, dead-pan.] … Someone who isn’t constantly barking at me… what is it now, Ghoulia?
 Ghoulia: You’re late! We’re supposed to be discussing our next… [She trails off as she notices someone else in the room. Cut to Drake, who waves awkwardly. Back to the bandmates. Ghoulia looks at Morgana, even more annoyed now.] … Gig. [On a re-watch, it’ll be obvious she was going to say something like heist or robbery.] Quit wasting time with the yokels and get with the band! Now!
 [As Ghoulia storms off, Drake comes to stand next to Morgana, watching the Cyclops leave.]
 Drake: Sheesh. I can see why you prefer new company. You really let her talk to you like that?
 Morgana: [A resigned sigh, before she tosses her hair and pretends this is fine.] She’s… always a little bitter after a performance. But I do have to get going. [She gives Drake a smile, which he returns.] It was nice “spending time” with you… Drake Mallard. Don’t be a stranger.
 [Morgana sashays out of the room, and Drake leans out of the doorway, fumbling to think of a way to properly say goodbye.]
 Drake: I-It was nice meeting you! Thanks again for the autograph! I mean it, she’s really gunna…
 [Cut to Morgana walking with the rest of the band, their backs to Drake, the rest of them laughing evilly. Close up of Morgana, who glances behind her. She smirks, then blows a kiss to Drake.]
 Drake: [Cut back to Drake, looking half-lidded and dumb once more.] … love it… [He sighs dreamily, tilting to a side… and about to land in a pile of instruments again.] NOT AGAIN! [Crash, Gosalyn’s autograph flies out of his hands and covers the screen – now Gosalyn’s hands are holding it, and she gasps.]
 Gosalyn: You really did it! Oh my gosh, this is the best gift ever!
 [Pan of the interior of Darkwing’s lair. It’s late at night. Drake is getting dressed up as Darkwing. Launchpad is making some repairs to Darkwing’s plane. Gosalyn takes a few selfies with the autograph as she talks. Drake is pretty darn pleased at how happy this has made Gosalyn. ]
 Gosalyn: I can’t believe I’m holding this in my hands!  I can’t believe you spoke to her! Is she just as awesome as is she on stage?
 Drake: Even more awesome, if you can believe it. [He’s adjusting the cape to his lapels. Gosalyn slows down, walking back and forth in front of Drake with meticulous steps. She’s a plottin’. Drake just nods along as she talks, still dressing up. ]
 Gosalyn: Sooo. Since you know how super-amazing she is, you understand why I want to hear all of her music. Buuut! There’s this super-secret track she’s released online, and you have to pay to hear it. Aaaand because you’re such an amazing dad, you would have no problem giving the money for it, which iiis… Five hundred bucks?
 Drake: [His mouth is open, ready to agree, until he “re-hears” the dollar amount.] FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS?! For one song? Absolutely not!
 Gosalyn: [Whiny, tugging on his cape.] Come on, pleeease? I’ve got to hear this song! And besides, you’ve got money for all these – [gesturing around the lair.] gadgets and gizmos and vehicles… how can you afford all that, anyway, when you’re not working a steady job?
 Drake: Oh, well you see it’s quite simple –
 [Rapid cut to Launchpad, who pulls out a piece of the plane.]
 Launchpad: Huh. Wonder what that’s for. Well, I’ll figure it out with the rest. [He tosses it over his shoulder, the camera following it to a rather large and worrisome pile of ‘confusing parts’.
 Rapid cut back to Drake and Gosalyn.]
 Gosalyn: Huh. Well, when you put it that way, that makes a lot of sense. [A running gag, they will never explain his money-issues, just like the original show never did on TV. ]
 Drake: But the point remains! It’s a no, and staying a no.
 Gosalyn: Please please please please please PLEEEAAAASE?
 Drake: Yeah, that’s not working in your favor. [The rest of the costume is done, he’s putting on the hat.] Five hundred bucks… I like her, but not that much! [Gosalyn leans into his side, looking ready to troll. Drake freezes. He’s made a mistake.]
 Gosalyn: You liiike her, huh?
 Drake: Wh-no! I… I have a… healthy respect for her! Yeah! She’s a musician, I’m an actor, we both contribute to creativity, and I admire her talent.
 Gosalyn: [After a beat, the same tone.] You liiike her.
 Drake: [Like a child being teased about his crush.] I DO NOT. [He huffs, then draws himself up.] And I need to focus! There’s criminal activity afoot! W.A.N.D.A.! [He begins walking toward the large computer screen, Gosalyn following.] Have you finished with the search I asked about?
 W.A.N.D.A.: [Her screen lights up.] The first search about local night robberies, or the second search ‘How to talk to women out of your league’?
 [Cut to Drake and Gosalyn, Gosalyn looking more trollish than before at Drake, and Drake, now Darkwing, furiously pushing a button while muttering.]
 Darkwing: The first one the first one the first one –
 [ Camera focus on the screen. It begins showing videos, side by side, of people walking out of homes and apartments in a zombie-like trance with all their cash and valuables. Gosalyn is speaking over it for a few words before it cuts back to her and Darkwing, with Launchpad approaching from the back.]
 Gosalyn: What’s this about midnight robberies?
 Darkwing: Well, for the past couple of nights, the victims were seen walking out with their money and goods, and some shady figures in a van take them. Afterward, the victims don’t remember what happened at all.
 Launchpad: They all said the last thing they remember was listening to their favorite song, and then they woke up in the streets in their pajamas. That happened to me too, once when I was flying after staying awake for six days straight and had the Darkwing Duck theme song on loop.
 Gosalyn: [Beat] Why were you flying the plane in your pajamas?
 Darkwing: [Ignoring this and continuing.] Supposedly the van has speakers attached to it, and I’m willing to bet it has something to do with what’s happening. It’s almost time for it happen to again, so I’ve got to take to the streets!
 Gosalyn: [fists pumped, assuming she’s coming.] Woo-hoo!
 Darkwing: [Without looking at her.] And people who teased me get to go home and work on homework.
 Gosalyn: [fists lowered, pouting] Booooo. [As the exchange happened, Launchpad squinted at the screen, cupping his beak in thought. He has an idea.]
 [Fade out. Fade in to St. Canard bridge, where Darkwing is riding the Ratcacher into the city. It takes a dynamic leap off of the bridge side and onto the street, zooming past several blocks. Close up of Darkwing’s face as he appears to see something.]
 Darkwing: Ah-ha! Right on cue!
 [Cut to an empty street, where more zombified adults and teens are walking out and dropping their valuables. All the while, low thudding beat can be heard from off-screen speakers. Cut back to Drake, who appears to hear it too, as he puts a hand to his “ear”. He replaces his helmet with his hat.]
 Darkwing: Strange… I can hear it just fine, so why isn’t it affecting me? The mysteries continue to grow… but for now, I’ve got to save those citizens!
 [The camera angle now changes to high above him as it watches him leap off the back and run off. Cut to whoever was watching him – a shadowy figure (clearly Morgana) sitting like a wild animal, hands and feet on a building’s roof, the outline showing she’s wearing a different outfit. (The villain outfit.) Another cut, same angle, of Darkwing running toward the citizens. Back to the “figure”, eyes glinting from moonlight in a show of thought.
 [Normal camera angle with Drake, as he approaches one adult who is putting down a small safe.]
 Darkwing: Never fear, citizen! I, Darkwing Dark, am here to save you from robbing yourself bl-[Without looking at him, the Adult punches him so hard he flies off screen. Cut to Darkwing on the ground, who then promptly sits up, insulted.] Hey! Rude! [He’s back on his feet.] I’m trying to help you! [He approaches a Teenager, trying to grab their wrist.] You don’t know what you’re doing – [The teenager grabs Darkwing by the arms, and throws him around twice in a circle before rolling him like a bowling ball, and he hits a streetlight.] …And yet, you seem to be very effective at it. [But determined, he gets up again. Now the Zombies are directly turning on him, trying to grab him and hit him. Now that he knows they’re hostile, Darkwing is able to successfully maneuver around them, but he’s trying not to hurt them.] It’s this music! As long as they hear it, they won’t stop! Gotta think… geez, this noise as bad as fingernails on a chalkboard!
 [He then tilts his head at an angle, eyebrows raised and smiling – idea! He ducks another punch, running towards a closed store with a glass windowfront display. He calmly takes out a penny, and begins dragging it harshly against the glass, creating an awful fingernails-on-chalkboard-esque sound. Cut to all the zombies crying out, covering their ears and closing their eyes. After a moment they open their eyes, looking normal and confused, with chatter in the background of asking what’s going on and why they’re outside.
 Cut back to Darkwing, looking very smug at his idea working… until the glass suddenly shatters into a million pieces. His pupils shrink, and he quickly fishes out a couple of bucks where the window once was, mumbling ‘sorry’ over and over again rapidly. He then straightens up again, trying to pretend he didn’t just do that.]
 Darkwing: Well! One problem solved. But where is that van, and what’s the secret behind the song? [Close up of him as he walks around, rubbing his beak.] I’m sure I’ve almost got it. The criminal mastermind must be here somewhere! [He leans back, bumping into someone. He tilts his head up, and the camera pans out, revealing Morgana in her villain get-up. Darkwing’s eyes almost pop out of his skull, and he begins backing up.] M-M-Morgana M-M-McCawber?!
 Morgana: [A hand to her heart, feigning surprise.] Darkwing Duck?
 Darkwing: [A close up of him, as his heart attack is interrupted by confusion.] Huh? You… know who I am? [Camera to show both.]
 Morgana: Of course I do! Who hasn’t heard of the one and only Darkwing Duck? The savior of St. Canard!
 Darkwing: [Camera on him, surprised, and flattered.] Savior? … Well, I suppose I have saved it several times… as a hero does!
 Morgana: [She begins walking behind him, fingers trailing his shoulders. The touch, for a moment, makes him go cross-eyed with his tongue out.] I’ve heard so much about this brave vigilante. How he’s so charismatic… so charming… so brilliant… but, it’s funny? [She giggles, and then turns on him, almost right in his face.] They left out how incredibly handsome he is in real life.
 Darkwing: [Sputters out a wheeze. He’s not sure he can take this twice in one day.] I-I-I don’t think that sort of description comes up often in the news. [She leans back, and Darkwing clutches his chest, maybe in a desperate attempt to keep his heart from jumping out. He clears his throat, wagging one finger, semi-confident again.] Aaand I’ve heard of you too! An amazing master of lyrics and song. I… try to keep afloat of all rising stars, no matter who they are… [Camera moves to show both of them and all of the misplaced loot, as Darkwing’s tone takes a curious inflection.] … And why they’re in the middle of crime scenes? [Oh, right, this is a crime scene! He shakes his head, remembering why he’s there.] The van! It’s got to be around here! And I’ve got to ask those citizens what they know!
 [He runs off screen, but Morgana ever so calmly grabs his cape and yanks him back on-screen.]
 Morgana: This is a crime scene? How… frightening! [Darkwing falls on his back in front of her, dizzy. She lets go out of his cape, clasping her hands together. Camera focuses on her upper body.] And here I am, all by my lonesome, far away from the safe reaches of my stage! Oh, if only there was some charismatic, charming, brilliant, handsome hero to escort me home?
 [Darkwing abruptly sits up with a cartoony spring-board effect, distracted again.]
 Darkwing: Why, I happen to be all of those things! [He bounces to his feet, but stops himself, as he looks back to the confused citizens who are arguing with each other. He rubs the back of his neck, uncertain, but making a choice as he talks. ] Well… I don’t hear the music anymore, so I guess they must have gotten away… and… and it is important to make sure all citizens make it home safely!
 Morgana: Perfect. I feel safer already. [She links arms with him, pretty much dragging him away. He grins, half-lidded eyes once more. As they leave, camera focuses on a mother and teenager.]
 Mother: See, I knew all that dark, scary music was bad for you!
 Teenager: Aw, mom, it was just one song!
 [Camera pans down to a dark corner, where a familiar hand (Ghoulia’s) snatches some left behind jewelry. Commercial break.
 Close-up of a street, with the Ratcatcher sliding to a halt. Pan out to reveal an abandoned theater. Darkwing and Morgana are on the Ratcatcher – Morgana’s sat behind him, legs-side-saddle, one arm around his neck. Darkwing raises an eyebrow.]
 Darkwing: This is your home away from home?
 Morgana: It’s free, which is all I can afford. [She begins to climb off. Darkwing watches her, still confused.]
 Darkwing: Really? But… you’re a sensational songstress! Shouldn’t you be rolling in dough?
 Morgana: [A close up of her face, her back to Darkwing, her voice and expression dark and angry.] Talent and profit don’t always go hand-in-hand. [A quiet snarl. But she forcefully shuts her eyes, and then relaxes, turn back to Darkwing.] But, enough about me –
 Darkwing: Oh, I could never get enough of you! [Said cheerfully, not realizing how that sounds.]
 Morgana: [ Puts her hands on the handlebars, leaning in, making Darkwing’s brain melt again.] How ever can I repay you for my safe journey home, hero?
 Darkwing: [Stutters, then shyly averts his eyes, tugging on his collar.] Heh heh, um! A true hero needs no reward! … [Then a quiet quick mutter, not really sure she can hear it.] Though dinner and a movie would be nice…?
 Morgana: How’s about this? [She cups his underbeak, then leans in to kiss his cheek. His eyes pop into hearts, and he falls off the Ratcatcher.]
 Darkwing: [Off-screen, dizzily, but high-pitched and rapid.] THAT’S VERY NICE THANK YOU. [The Ratcatcher falls over and lands on him.] … THAT WASN’T.
 Morgana: [Has worn the same amused smirk this entire time, looking down at him.] Sweet dreams, Dark Darling. [She turns and walks off, humming the same tune from earlier in her dressing room.]
 [Cut to upside-down on the ground and under the Ratcatcher Darkwing, eyes normal but half-lidded, his smile lop-sided. He’s humming the same tune. Fade around his body to change the scene, his expression never changing, but now he’s back in the lair. He’s sitting upside-down, legs up in the air and against the Ratcatcher. Pan out to show Gosalyn near him.]
 Gosalyn: You met Morgana AGAIN?! How are you this lucky! Did you get more autographs? Did you get any inside information about her?
 Darkwing: [Same dreamy stupor.] Her hair smells like lavender.
 Gosalyn: … Anything that makes you sound less creepy?
 [Off-screen, Launchpad is heard going “Guys, guys!” Cut to him running up with a rolled up piece of paper.]
 Launchpad: Guys, I figured something out!
 Gosalyn: The puzzle on the back of the cereal box?
 Launchpad: No, that’s still a stumper. [Angry fist-shake of vengeance.] I’ll conquer you yet, cornflake maze! [Then back to cheery.] No, it’s about the robberies! [This gets Darkwing’s attention, making him blink rapidly before trying to stand up. The family circles a table where Launchpad unfurls the paper, which has lines of names and numbers.] Something about those neighborhoods got me thinking. I’ve crashed into them a lot, and when I do, the repairs are always in the triple digits.
 Gosalyn: And this is news how?
 Launchpad: Everyone who’s been robbed has been super-wealthy! It’s like whoever is making them steal knew these people had plenty of money!
 Darkwing: I think you’re onto something, Launchpad! Now that you mention it, the victims last night seemed way more interested in why they were out there than what they lost… W.A.N.D.A.! [The family heads for the computer.] See if you can look up whatever the victims purchased before the robberies and if there’s anything that lines up together!
 W.A.N.D.A.: [Close up of her screen.] Processing request. … Information located. [Screen begins showing bank statements, flashing the number 500.] Each victim spent exactly five hundred dollars in a singular online purchase twenty-four hours before they were self-robbed.
 [Back to the family.]
 Gosalyn: Five hundred dollars?
 Launchpad: Huh – Didn’t you say that’s how much Morgana’s band was pricing that secret single?
 [Both Gosalyn and Darwking seem rather offended at the notion.]
 Darkwing: You’re not saying Morgana had anything to do with this, are you?
 Gosalyn: Not cool, Launchpad! She’s no thief!
 Launchpad: [Upset that he’s being yelled at, gently trying to make his point.] Uhhh, well, Darkwing did say she was at the crime scene the other night…?
 Darkwing: She was just… you know… [Realizing he never found out why she was there, he wordlessly moves his hands.] Finding… her muse… maybe?
 Gosalyn: Just being there doesn’t make her a criminal! My role model would never do anything so awful!
 Darkwing: [Defiant, confident.] Yeah, exactly! Morgana’s better than that! [Beat, he side-eyes Gosalyn.] Really no choice of me being your role model, huh?
 Gosalyn: That ship sailed, buddy.
 Darkwing: Dang it.
 W.A.N.D.A. : Alert. Alert. Self-inflicted robberies are taking place in East St. Canard.
 Darkwing: All right, this time we’ll catch them in the act, and prove Morgana’s innocence!
 Gosalyn: Yeah! The real fans will always believe in her!
 [Darkwing and Gosalyn run off screen. Launchpad frowns sadly, looking at the screen before joining the others. Fade out. Fade in the streets of St. Canard, with the Zombie victims walking out with their valuables. The thudding speaker music is playing again. Pan up one of the buildings, revealing the family on top. From left to right, Darkwing, Launchpad, Gosalyn. Close up to the three.]
 Darkwing: Now, this time we wait for the perpetrators to show up and take the loot, then we stop them. Honestly, Launchpad, how could you accuse poor, sweet, innocent Morgana of something so heinous?
 Launchpad: I was just –
 Gosalyn: Morgana is the coolest, most amazing singer that there’s ever been! Nobody’s gunna diss her while I’m around!
 Launchpad: [Opens his mouth to defend his point, but stops, pointing below.] Hey, there’s the van!
 [Cut to red van with gigantic speakers strapped atop of it. The tires squeal to a stop in front of the screen… with the “Morgana and Ghoulies” band logo on it. Cut to the family, with Launchpad still pointing.]
 Launchpad: Isn’t that Morgana’s van?
 Darkwing: Someone could have stolen it!
 Gosalyn: Yeah, yeah!
 [Cut back to the van. The other band members begin climbing out, each one laughing evilly their own way, ready to grab the loot. Cut to the family. Launchpad is still pointing.]
 Launchpad: Isn’t that Morgana’s band?
 Darkwing: Clearly they’re thieving on their own!
 Gosalyn: Yeah, yeah!
 [Cut to the back of the van, the doors bursting open. A flurry of bats fly out, and then Morgana jumps out, riffing on her guitar, then grinning wickedly.]
 Morgana: Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to rock and rob! [Evil laugh.]
 [Back to the family. Yes, he’s still pointing. Darkwing and Gosalyn has shrunken irises.]
Launchpad: … Isn’t that Morgana?
 Darkwing: [A beat, then in a pathetic tone, knowing he’s wrong.] Brainwashed?
 Gosalyn: [Same tone.] Evil twin?
 Launchpad: [Gently, with some reproach.] Guyyys.
 [Darkwing and Gosalyn both moan “Awww, maaan.” In clear disappointment. Cut back to the streets. The rest of the band are shoving handfuls of stolen goods into the van. Morgana cheerfully begins to pluck some dollar bills from a Zombie, when Darkwing’s voice sounds out.]
 Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night! [The Band stops, confused.] I am love song that plays on the radio after you’ve been dumped! I am…
 [Cut to classic blue smoke, and our hero standing as it clears.]
 Darkwing: Darkwing Duck!
 [Cut to Morgana, surprised.]
 Morgana: Darkwing! This isn’t what it looks like! [Pause, glancing at her own hand grabbing a bill that’s in a Zombie’s hand.] … Who am I kidding, that wasn’t gunna work. [Gives an “oh well!” shrug, moving her guitar.]
 Darkwing: [Cut to him, fists clenched, upset and hurt.]  How could you do this? Using people as ATMs, using me!
 Morgana: [Scoffs, now holding her guitar like one would a battle ax.] Oh, please! You were drooling over me like a vampire at a blood bank! You were using me as much as anyone else does! Now it’s time to make this a solo act!
 [Morgana charges for him. Darkwing is hurt, but maybe she has a point – however, she’s a villain, and she needs to stopped. He takes out his grapple-hook-gun, using it to ‘sword-fight’ with Morgana. Various cuts between their fight and Launchpad trying to duke out the other members of the band, along with Gosalyn trying to empty the van and avoid the band-mates grabbing her.
 Morgana manages to thwack the gun out of his hand – it lands on a broken juke box outside waiting for the dumpster to pick it up. The hit makes it turn on and play a love song. (It’s a Date, maybe?) She kicks him in the face. The camera follows him as he lands in a rose bush. His face pops out, a rose in his beak. He shakes his head, then runs back into the fray. More kicks and punches are exchanged, block for block, hit for hit. At one blow, Morgana hits a wall, and above her, several perfume bottles on a window ledge topple over and spill on her. She tries to shake it off, and then resumes the fight.
 Darkwing manages to grab her guitar and throw it away. Cut to two men on the sidewalk, holding boxes of fireworks.]
 Guy 1: I told you, nobody is interested in Valentine’s Day fireworks!
 Guy 2: Oh, you don’t have a romantic bone in your body!
 [The guitar flies their way, smacking into the boxes, and the fireworks go off, making the men yell. Back to the fight – Morgana and Drake are both climbing up a building while still fighting. Their blows are matching up in almost perfect alignment, and they might be smiling. Cut to Gosalyn dodging the claws of Ghoulia, rolling on the ground then getting up.]
 Gosalyn: Once he’s done with Morgana, you guys are done! I know even right now he’s…
 [Cut to the top of the building, with only the silhouettes of Darkwing and Morgana seen. This way, it looks more like they’re in an epic yet romantic tango than a fight.
 Cut back to Gosalyn and Ghoulia, who are wearing matching expressions of sheer confusion.]
 Gosalyn: … They are fighting, right?
 Ghoulia: I think so? Kinda?
 [Gosalyn shrugs, then elbows Ghoulia in the gut before running away, and Ghoulia gives chase. Back to the fight with Darkwing and Morgana shown normally again. They’re apart, but panting, exhausted, yet somehow not angry at each other. Focus on Morgana, holding her arm, breathing hard, backing away.]
 Morgana: You really don’t know how to quit, do you?
 [Focus on Darkwing, who finally spits out the rose.]
 Darkwing: I could the same thing about you.  
 [Split-screen of them both, rather admiring the other – but then Morgana yelps. Camera cut to reveal that as she was backing up, she was accidentally teetering off the edge, and she’s losing her balance.]
 Darkwing: Morgana!
 [He runs over to save her – he catches one of her hands, and his other hand lands on her back, she grabs his shoulder, one arm flayed out behind her, winding up in him dipping her. Camera backs away to show the Valentine’s fireworks exploding in the sky, three hearts of different sizes, one right after the other. The music is reaching crescendo.
 Close-up of Darkwing’s face, with a few of the rose petals from before fluttering about. He blinks. He’s blushing. Oh.
 Close-up of Morgana’s face. Some of that perfume from before is dripping off of her hair. She blinks. She’s blushing. Oh.
 Camera cut to both of them. Wordlessly, without even seeming to realize what they’re doing, they begin leaning their faces together, eyes starting to close –
 Launchpad’s voice suddenly cuts in, with a literal record needle scratch, a communicator from Darkwings suit.]
 Launchpad: Darkwing! Did you get her? I could use some help here!
 [Darkwing yelps, so startled he drops Morgana but catches her in the same second, head darting about, sputtering. As he spasms, Morgana glances around, seemingly getting an idea of her own, slowly putting her other hand on Darkwing’s other shoulder as he spews gobbledygook. ]
 Darkwing: LAUNCHPAD! I-I-I… I have the prime seduction – SUSPECT! I’m sending her to commitment – CUSTODY! We just need a wedding – WARRANT!
 [Before Darkwing can choke on his own tongue, Morgana suddenly reverses the dip, her back to the camera, and a big SMOOOOOCH can be heard, with what can be seen of Darkwing being frozen solid. When she pulls back, she props him on his feet, smirking. Darkwing’s tongue is lopped out, his eyes swirly. Launchpad’s voice is heard again.]
 Launchpad: Darkwing! What was that? What’s happening with her?
 Darkwing: [Dreamily, dizzily.] I… think I’m falling for her…
 [Morgana calmly gives Darkwing a tiny push with one of her fingers, and he falls over the edge of the building. The camera follows him as he hits several awnings and ill-placed flower pots, and finally lands in a dumpster. He stands up, and the dumpster lid hits him. He manages to crawl out of the dumpster and flop onto the ground – in the next second, Launchpad’s body hits the side of the dumpster. He sits up, groaning in pain, and Darkwing’s love stupor is officially over.
 Cut to the rest of Morgana’s band, chuckling darkling and cracking their knuckles as they advance on the two. Cut back to the duo, with Launchpad gulping.]
 Launchpad: I think you two need couples counseling!
 [Commercial break. Scene has changed to a construction site. Gosalyn can be seen hiding high above, she managed to evade capture. She looks down – camera follows her sight to Launchpad and Darkwing who are tied up individually. Darkwing is struggling with his restraints.]
 Launchpad: [Sincerely, sadly.] Gee, DW, sorry your girlfriend turned out to be a fiendish, blood-sucking creature from the netherworld.
 Darkwing: [Offended.] Hey hey hey! Nobody’s doing any blood-sucking!
 Morgana: [Off-camera] Ah, but the night is young. [Focus on her sashaying up to them, her guitar on her back.] And my show is far from over. I wasn’t expecting special guest stars, but I can always adapt.
 Darkwing: [Struggling again.] You don’t have to do this, Morgana! I know, deep down, you’re a good person!
 Morgana: Weirdly enough, I think the opposite of you. We both felt that spark of something… special. [She grabs his restraints, then spins him around rapidly.] You’re above the law, you work in the shadows… I know deep down, you’re a bad guy. [She stops spinning him, but his hat is still spinning and his eyes are rolling.] You should join me! Together, we’d be the ultimate power couple! [She grabs him again, and dips him.] If the people of St. Canard, won’t rise for applause, we’ll bring them to their knees! [She pulls him right up, leaning in, eyelashes fluttering, purring.] C’mon, Darkwing, let’s be bad… together.
 Darkwing: [He jerks, gulping loudly. He’s not considering the offer, but dang if that wasn’t alluring as all get out! But then he straightens up, glaring at her.] Never! I’ll always be on the side of justice, and if that means we’re on opposite sides of the dance floor, then so be it! I’ll never turn against the people!
 Morgana: [Sighs, disappointed, and cradles him close to her chest, making his eyes pop.] A shame… I thought we could make beautiful music together. Oh well. [She drops him like a hot potato and he lands with a THUD off-screen. She begins to walk off, moving her guitar from her back to her front.]
 [Darkwing manages to sit up after a grunt, collecting himself. As he looks at her, he sounds more sad than angry.]
 Darkwing: This plot… you’re using your own fans love for you to rob them! The track is just part one, and the speakers are part two! That’s why they’re robbing themselves! How could you do that to people who enjoy your music?
 [Cut to a close up of Morgana’s top half. She stops, that last sentence getting to her. Cut back to Darkwing.]
 Darkwing: Do you have any idea how they’re going to feel once they realize the person they idolized… the person they wanted to succeed used them? That they were nothing more to you than a dollar sign?
 [Cut to Gosalyn, looking away, indeed looking very hurt. Back to Darkwing.]
 Darkwing: I know what it’s like to meet your hero… and to have them reject you so cruelly, after all you wanted was to make them proud. [As he says this, it cuts to Launchpad, looking down. Clearly Darkwing is talking about Jim Starling. Then it cuts to Morgana’s top again, her eyes wide, and then she looks aside, upset. The words are weighing heavily as Darkwing speaks.] I just… I can’t believe you’d want to make anyone feel that bad. That can’t be who you are. But… is it why you shared your music with the world? Just to hurt people?
 [At that, Morgana whips around, almost on the verge of tears.]
 Morgana: No! That’s… that’s not what I… That was never…
 [But like Drake and Morgana’s first encounter, anything more meaningful is interrupted by Ghoulia, who yanks Morgana aside. A running theme in their episodes is that it’s always Ghoulia who interrupts such moments – symbolically showing they’re the bad influence on Morgana, and showcasing the inevitable betrayal Ghoulia will have to her leader.]
 Ghoulia: Listen up, Dorkwing! If they’re really our fans, then they’ll do anything we want! And tonight, we’ve got enough power to start blasting through this whole city! C’mon, Morgana!
 [Morgana fumbles, but after a breath, she steels herself, and straightens up, a villain once more.]
 Morgana: Right. Let’s make tonight a rock of ages.
 [As they walk off, camera pans to show the van nearby, the rest of the band ready with their instruments. Cut to a despondent Darkwing looking around – but then he stops, surprised. Camera shows to see him seeing Gosalyn, and she sees him back. He smiles, then nods, and she gives a thumbs-up.
 Darkwing clears his throat, sitting up straight.]
 Darkwing: Those must be some pretty powerful speakers you’ve got! [He winks at Launchpad, who cheers up, understanding the silent plan.
 Back at the band, Ghoulia plugs the speakers up to Morgana’s guitar.]
 Ghoulia: You have no idea! Everything else was just rehearsal… now we’re ready for the real show! Once this baby’s powered, even people who have never heard the secret song will hand over their cash!
 [Cut to Launchpad’s back, as an arrow suddenly flings down. He grabs it, and begins using the sharp edge to undo his restraints.]
 Launchpad: Must have cost an arm and a leg to afford a sound system like that!
 [Another band-member, the two-headed troll, laughs as he opens up the same tome from earlier. The left (Jekyll) head speaks as the right head (Hyde) laughs.]
 Jekyll: You better believe it! It took us forever to save up for this monstrosity!
 [Cut to Darkwing’s back, another arrow, same routine.]
 Darkwing: So if something happened to it, you probably wouldn’t be able to afford pulling off this scheme again?
 [Cut to Morgana and the entire band. She begins to strum the guitar, and sounds annoyed.]
 Morgana: It doesn’t matter! The curtain has risen on our criminal empire! There’s nothing that can stop us now! [The second her sentence finishes, an arrow suddenly flies into the right speaker, causing it to sparkle and sizzle, breaking down.] … Except that.
 [Cut to Gosalyn, holding her crossbow in one hand defiantly.]
 Gosalyn: Show’s over, Morgana McCawber! [She takes aim, and fires off another arrow.]
 [Cut to Morgana, raising her guitar to deflect the arrow.]
 Morgana: No!
 [Back to Gosalyn, who keeps firing and runs along one of the construction bars. Cut back to down below, Launchpad and Darkwing are free, and head for the band. A brawl begins, but now Darkwing and Launchpad are fighting together in sync. Morgana keeps trying to knock back the arrows. Ghoulia climbs on top of the van to turn a volume knob. The thudding is now very loud, shown by the screen shaking momentarily. Cut to the top of the construction site, where heavy bars and concrete blocks are teetering on an edge, moving closer due to the hard, heavy beats.
 Launchpad grabs one of the drums and bashes it on the drummer (Frankenstein)’s head and body, trapping him and throws him into the van. The force spits out a lot of the cash and valuables. The two-headed troll is tossed in soon after. Outside, the arrows are flying faster than Morgana can stop them, and they land in the second speaker, destroying it. Morgana cries out no repeatedly as it sizzles and fries. Furious, she grabs the guitar and swings it hard, smacking Launchpad and Darkwing in one strike, hard enough to send them flying. They land all the other way on the other side of the construction site. Cut to the bars above, that shock hard enough to make the roll really going.
 Down below, Goslayn lands on the ground, satisfied with her role in this, oblivious to the danger above.
 Cut to the van, with Ghoulia climbing into the driver’s seat and starting it.]
 Ghoulia: Morgana! Grab the loot and let’s go!
 [Morgana turns to do just that. Cut back to Gosalyn, as she realizes she’s encased in shadow. She looks up, and cries out – the bars and blocks are heading down!
 Cut to Launchpad and Darkwing, who yell out her name in horror. Cut to Morgana, who rapidly turns around. She looks back at the loot, then back to the scene. Back and forth.
 Cut to Gosalyn, trying to run. Cut to Launchpad and Darkwing, trying to get to her – all the bars fall down at once, creating smokey debris. In a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it-moment, there was a moving shadow in it all. Once the ‘smoke’ settles, cut to a horrified Darkwing.]
 Darkwing: GOSALYN! [He frantically runs up to the pile, trying to move concentrate blocks and bars aside, but can’t. Launchpad runs up behind him.]  Just – just hang, I’ll get you out of there! Please be okay! Can you hear me?! [As he digs in a panic, Launchpad notices something off screen. Without looking at Darkwing, he reaches over to grab Darkwing’s head and forcefully move it so he can see what Launchpad’s seeing.
 Cut to a close of Morgana’s face, with closed eyes… pan out to reveal she’s on one knee, holding a surprised Gosalyn close. Clearly she ran in and grabbed Gosalyn and got her out of the way. Morgana opens her eyes, sighs in relief, and lets go of Gosalyn, putting her down. Cut to Launchpad and Darkwing, surprised, who look at each other, then back at this scene.
 Back to Morgana and Gosalyn.]
 Morgana: That was way too close for comfort…
 Gosalyn: Um. Thanks?
 Morgana: What are you even doing out here, kid? You should be home! Doing… I dunno, chores, or your homework!
 [Cut back to Launchpad and Darkwing. The “homework” mention gets Darkwing all dreamy-eyed again. Back to Morgana and Gosalyn, the van suddenly screeches up to their side, with Ghoulia shouting out.]
 Ghoulia: Move it, Morgana! We lost it all, and it’s all your fault!
 [Morgana sighs, but gets and grabs one of the open doors of the back of the van. The van drives off. Cut to Morgana hanging off the door, still a stage diva.]
 Morgana: Until we meet again, Dark Darling! [She blows him a kiss. The van drives off into the distance.
 Cut to the family, all of them trying to process what just happened.]
 Gosalyn: I don’t get it. Is she a bad guy, or a good guy?
 Launchpad: This is the sixth weirdest break-up I’ve ever seen.
 Darkwing: All I know is… she’s like a song with way too catchy lyrics… [Cut to the van driving off as he continues.] she’s not leaving my head anytime soon.
 [Cut to the inside of the van. Ghoulia is ranting and raving about their loss, and it’s all Morgana’s fault. Pan over to Morgana sitting in the van, not listening. She’s strumming her guitar, humming the same tune from when she met Drake… and looking quite dreamy-eyed, sighing blissfully.
 End credits.]

IN 2023, THE 5 BEST ANTIFUNGAL NAIL POLISHES
Nail fungus is a frequent issue that can harm your nails and be tough to treat. There are numerous cures available, but one that is rarely addressed is the use of nail polish as an antifungal solution. Nail fungus is a disorder that can develop when the nail structure is compromised. This can involve cell damage under and around your nails caused by bacteria or other causes such as pollutants in the water. Discolored growths on top of the diseased area and thicker portions surrounding it with an awful odor are symptoms of this infection.
This article looks at the top antifungal nail paint options for 2023.
THE FIVE BEST ANTI-FUNGAL NAIL POLISHES
To avoid further damage from nail fungus, it is critical to apply organic and natural nail polish. Dr.'s Remedy's non-toxic kit includes three brilliant colors in a pack of strengthening, organic, toxin-free polish for both fingers and toes! Biotin garlic bulb extracts lavender and contains compounds such as tea tree oil. Furthermore, this polish checks all the boxes, making it a fantastic choice if you want a long-lasting shine with potent anti-fungal characteristics.
The DaniPro Doctor Formulated nail paint is ideal for keeping your nails healthy and colorful. It contains undecylenic acid, which aids in the prevention of fungal growth while preserving the strength of your natural nails. This one-of-a-kind recipe also provides the finest chip resistance, allowing you to enjoy beautiful manicured fingers for days without touching up! DaniPro's nail paint is free of chemicals and toxins because the company understands how vital this product is in keeping infected fingernails safe from infection.
PS Cosmeceutical Infused Nail Lacquer is your new nail polish go-to. This lacquer has stunning purple and orchid tones with a glittery texture that lasts all day! This professional-grade treatment also contains no formaldehyde, protecting your nails from hazardous compounds such as camphor and resins. It's long-lasting without being prone to chipping, so you may wear it with confidence every time.
Pros:
Fungus prevention formula. Perfect for fungus-infected nails. Improve the overall appearance of your nails. A medium consistency with a smooth application. Cons:
It is true.Furthermore, it does not dry quickly. Expensive.
TWO IN ONE GLAZE WAS ENRICHED BY DR.'S REMEDY
Your nails will be long-lasting and durable using Dr.'s Remedy! This topcoat seals the nail paint so it doesn't peel or flake for weeks. Apply as a foundation layer before painting for a natural effect, or directly onto white spots on toes to make them disappear in seconds! This gloss is great for those who suffer from fungal infections of their nails and cannot afford expensive treatments like prescription medications - you'll never have an itch again with these amazing results.
NovaNailPLUS Powerful Antifungal Agent is ready to treat onychomycosis-affected nails. But don't worry, this base coat contains 1% artemisia tridentata extract and 4% Melaleuca alternifolia oil to prevent it from spreading further! This antifungal treatment swiftly penetrates your nails, ensuring that they not only appear but also feel clean!
Tumblr media
If left untreated, nail fungus can be hazardous. It is critical to treat it promptly and correctly since the longer you wait, the worse your nail will become.
Fungal infections typically begin around the nails or in skin folds such as the armpits, but they should not spread if treated properly and on time.
CAN ANTIFUNGAL NAIL POLISH HELP?
Antifungal nail lacquer is a fantastic choice for fungus control. Antibacterial and antifungal elements are infused into the lotion to not only prevent spread but also to begin repairing nails faster than other treatment alternatives such as bathing your hands in vinegar or using over-the-counter medicine.
WOULD I BE ABLE TO WEAR NAIL POLISH IF I HAD TOENAIL FUNGUS?
Do you suffer from toenail fungus? Then you should be cautious about using nail paint. Antifungal paints are a good bet, but if you require a different make-up or hue, start with the base coat and then layer on your preferred colors.
HOW TO IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF TOENAIL FUNGUS?
Wearing antifungal nail paint is the greatest way to conceal toenail fungus. Clean the affected area every day with water and cleaners, then apply a coat of transparent polish on top. You can even paint your nails to make them look nicer while concealing the illness beneath!
CONCLUSION
We hope you found this guide on the best antifungal nail polish of 2023 to be interesting and useful. Several elements such as touch-ups and chip resistance can influence your choices, so we recommend taking some time to consider what is essential to you before making a decision.
Also, consider how much money you have available and whether these products will be effective in treating fungus on both your hands and feet. Hopefully, our list has relieved some of your worry by providing you with a convenient starting point for your search for the ideal product!

This photo is all about in immersion we can work from ten days as a temporary employee on salon. My teacher would be inform to us for preparation in our necessity such as tools and equipment in beauty care and nail care also we can bring own thrimp and allowance.
The single most important thing that I learn while in immersion days was to be sanitary and maintain good practices. I also the most practical skills that I learn was how to properly hygiene in any tools and equipment. Hands come in any shape we can trim to our clients nail, so using a tip in not always an option.
The maintenance of nail care is important for health as well as cosmetics reason. Good nail care can prevent fungus infections of the nail, painfully ingrown toenails just the most needed to clean up every two weeks.
I feel that I will be able to make the client extremely comfortable and help them enjoy their stay while they get their nail care done. I believe that I am capable of learning all the information from this work immersion and apply it to my future.
Having all step to becoming a cosmetologist be in such a shortness of time to people may get every overwhelmed, but I that can succeed in this career field. May poeple doubt my ability to commit this from the future.
