#badass donald duck

[thepagansun]

how did Donald Duck influence Star Wars? And wasn’t Indiana Jones inspired by Scrooge, not Donald?

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg mentioned that they were inspired by Carl Barks' comics.

So was Osamu Tezuka, the creator of Astro Boy and "Godfather of Modern Manga."

And Donald Duck was going on adventures with his nephews in the Carl Barks comics long before Scrooge McDuck was created and this is precisely why DT17 and other media trying to give all the credit to Scrooge but forgetting that Donald was the FIRST just proves my point in my frustration with them.

Everyone just thinks it was Scrooge McDuck thanks to the later Don Rosa's work: "Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck" which was loosely based on Carl Barks' works (Don Rosa exaggerated a lot of Scrooge's abilities at the expense of Donald's).

This is why I advocate for giving credit where credit is due when it comes to canon characters and where I feel DT17 really dropped the ball. Donald was an adventurer looong before Scrooge and some of Carl Barks' best comics don't even have him:

-"Donald Duck Finds Pirate Gold" - Carl Barks first full length comic

- "Mystery of the Swamp" - Donald and nephews encounter gnomish creatures in the Everglades which some think were the inspiration for the Ewoks in Star Wars

"The Mad Chemist" (the comic credited with discovering the chemical compound methylene 20 years before it was actually studied and verified!)

-"Lost in the Andes" - Carl Barks claimed was his best work

- "The Golden Helmet" - Donald and nephews: whoever possesses the golden helmet is ruler of North America

- "The Ice Box Robber" - The comic that showcased Donald having WWII PTSD

- "Sherrif of Bullet Valley" - Donald and nephews in the Wild West

- "Dangerous Disguise" - a comic about spies where a Donald look alike commits suicide by jumping out of a window

- "Luck of the North" Donald and nephews rescue Gladstone in Alaska

"Old California" - Donald and the nephews seem to time travel to California in 1848 and they witness the family there living their lives. It turns out they were in a bad car accident and were on the hospital in a coma for weeks. But the house is still there.

"A Christmas for Shacktown" - Donald and the nephews find ways to raise money for the poor kids in town

"The Gilded Man" - A search for a rare stamp leads Donald and the boys finding El Dorado

- "The Forbidden Valley" - Donald and the nephews discover a lost land of dinosaurs

Just to name a few. There are plenty more.

The great thing about the Carl Barks comics especially when it came to Donald was that although he still had bad luck, it showed him also have great skills in practically everything and it tackled deep emotional issues and real world events such as PTSD, spies/espionage, danger/adventure, poverty, but in a way that was relatable and entertaining.

Donald mixed the best of high action adventure with scenes of intimate, heartwarming domestic life with his nephews. It was literally the best of both worlds: adventure and domestic life.

So the world needs to know that actually it's Donald Duck that deserves the credit for the success of the Carl Barks comics. Not only was Donald first but he was used as the protagonist for many more comics than Scrooge. And I hope if we ever get another version of Ducktales that the writers actually credit Donald as he deserves and not a bunch of semi newbies that don't even exist in the original comics.

There's so much he inspired and influenced that people don't know and so it's unfair for him to be sidelined as he was for characters that haven't accomplished one iota of what he has.

It's time to give credit where it's actually due: to Donald Duck.

Damn look at them

That's what I call a badass moment there

Textless Variant

To the anon who asked if I enjoyed the Marvel What If Comics...

I would say it's fun but a bit lackluster and that we could've absolutely had this instead but Disney decided to be a coward about it.

[daffodil--lament]

im OK btw I got mozzarella sticks

[michimonie]

Grandma Duck being a natural badass.

1, 15 and 23 for Daisy Duck?

Okay, sure. Round 2 of Daisy, coming up.

1. Why do you like or dislike this character?

I like this iteration of Daisy because it keeps her refined, yet badass, personality, while doing a much better job at giving her a healthy relationship with Donald. I mean, even from just 2-3 episodes of her in this series, their relationship is way deeper than basically anything else they’re in together.

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

Donald. Definitely Donald. (Though I also enjoy the fanon polycule of her, Donald, and Storkules.)

23. Favorite picture of this character?

This one of her and Donald. Look at how happy he is. 🥺

[fantasticenthusiasttale]

IMAGINE THIS. the duck cousins find out Abner is dating Donna

Donald is breaking out into a cold sweat like he ran a marathon from Gladstone's jokes

Della wants to win the rivalry AND steal her from Abner

Fethry is (or trying his best to) taking care of Dugan

Abner doesn't even remember their names

HDLW and Scrogge are trying to count how many relatives this family is missing

Duck Cousins

What Duck Cousins dynamics would you like to see?

DCRC Week #9 (Part 1)

There is a fungus among us....

Sorry I have nothing better to say. We're reading PKNA #6: Spore! (or I guess sometimes I've heard it called "Spores" plural idk)

Listen, I know we LITERALLY just read Dangerous Disguise and I already said this, but it will never not be scary to just have like human people walking around in the Duckverse!! LIKE THAT IS JUST A HUMAN MAN!!! And don't even @ me with the like "oh it's a dog person that just LOOKS really human" cause he doesn't even have a black nose. That's just a guy.

Now THAT'S a dog.

Guys do you think Xadhoom is doing well after her encounter on the Evronian star base cause idk if she's doing that well. can we get a wellness check on her maybe.

SNOOZEEERRRRRRR 🛌😴🌙

Donald we TRIED telling you to just leave Angus Fangus to be harvested for infinite energy but noOoOoOO you had to SAVE HIM because it's the "right thing to do" or whatever. I'm just saying nobody would even be mad if he mysteriously disappeared.

The art in the issue is already CRAZAYYYY idk how to describe it but I'm really liking the vibe. It feels really jiggly wiggly, like all the characters look really bendy and active and there's just a lot of detail packed into these panels. It's not something I'm used to making or even seeing but I'm really enjoying the eye candy!

How many times is Donald gonna poke his nose into government business before he learns his lesson

Sorry Don I think she's busy having serious PTSD over her entire race being enslaved, you're on your own for this one bud

I'm serious about that wellness check you guys she's just lying fetal position on the floor now

DEPARTMENT..... SIGMA??!?!?!?!

Donald is so short they barely even put him in this panel 😭 it's just his forehead man

These two poses are driving me insane. This is what I look like when I'm in distress 💃

??!?!?!??!?!?!?! THAT'S A PENI-

*Narrator voice* Little did he know, it could, in fact, get much worse.

Dude I'm putting those fabric folds in my mouth and chewing on them so fucking hard holy shit... the cross hatching ououghh.... he does NOT deserve to have a cape that badass

Donaaaald don't look around like that..... YOU'D BETTER NOT-

NOOOOOOO FUCK

NEVERMIND KILL

bro she is crumpled up like a fucking paper bag be NICE

that's probably bad. right?

Anyways woah ending on not one but TWO cliffhangers? Wowie zowie! I'm sure PK and Xadhoom are gonna have a very civilized and normal conversation and we'll totally find out what they talked about at the start of next chapter and they DEFINITELY won't just jump into a chapter about Angus Fangus. RIGHT???

Now to read Ducks on the Road which is apparently like 170 pages good god-

The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck Retrospective Chapter 10: The Invader of Fort Duckburg "It'll Be a Dark Day When I Give in To a Mere Superpower"

And we're back. For those of you newer around here a few years ago in the middle of my ducktales fevor, I started a retrospective of one of my favorite comic books of all time: The 12 part epic the Life and Times of Scrooge Mcduck, covering Scrooge's rise from a shoeshine in glasgow barely scraping by to the Richest Duck in the World and what he gained and lost along the way. I had a ton of fun covering this one but sadly.. I eventually gave up. I felt the years had piled up too much and i'd never get back to finishing it.

Enter Kev, who out of nowhere asked if he could comission the final three chapters. I happily agreed as not only can I finally finish one of the biggest works of my reviewing career, but it opens me up to do all the suplimental chapters at some point, paticuarlly "dream of a lifetime".

For now though, we're celebrating President's Day with chapter 10, my faviorite of the series and Don Rosa's too. It's largely for the same reasons: the story is tightly paced, covering only two days compared to most chapters pile of years, funny, furious, and for me at least has more of hortense, who I love dearly and who finds the love she deserves this chapter.. via a lot of shouting of course as is the McDuck/Duck Family way. Unless your these two.

Chapter 10 is the rare chapter that picks up almost exactly where we left off, with a much shorter time skip of a few weeks, skipping our heroes travels from Scotland to the US and focusing on Scrooge and his sisters as they set up his empire , here in Duckburg. What follows is a farce, a romantic comedy, an action set piece, and one of the most badass panels ever put to ink, which for this series is saying a lot.

If you'd like to catch up on the previous 9 chapters, I just complied all of them into one handy dandy post.

So go check that out if you fancy then come back here as we get scrooge vs the United States of America itself.

We open the issue with a quick recap before we pan to our heroes, puttering along their Duckburg. Part of what makes this chapter neat is seeing the town before Scrooge made it into a thriving city: here it's just a few buildings and a small farm.

As scrooge puts it "a town as big as it is wide". Our heroes are riding what could charitably be considered a car, which Scrooge got cheap and didn't read was a piece of scrap as his eyes are entirley shot at this point after the Yukon. I do like that while his eyesight fading is partially herditary, Rosa provides an explination for why it went down hill so fast: 6 years in the yukon with all that snow was hell on them. He leads his sisters up his new property with the help of a local farmer.... then back down his newly aquiried Killmule Hill

I love this gag and I applaud Don Rosa's art here. He makes a mean impact siloutte. I also didn't notice till writing this review but you also see Matilda and Scrooge's hats over the corn. Hortense would join in the gag but she hasn't got a hat bope a dope a dope dope.

The Farmer renames the hill "Killmotor Hill", for the auto age... I love that detail too. Of course it wouldn't of always been killmotor hill. Though whoever was running mules so hard up that hill they were killing them needs a swift kick.

The lady of the farm offers to rent Scrooge a shed, seeing as she owns most of the land around here and reveals herself as Elvira Duck,knee coot, sister of Casey, the man who sold Scrooge the hill in the first place and she soon introduces her family.

Yup this is Donald's family including Grandma McDuck, the character I most regret not making it into ducktales in time. Grandma McDuck is donald's sweet country grandma who reminds me of my own sweet country grandma, who spends her days working hard and yelling at donald's cousin gus to actually do some work for a change. He never does.

Humperdink is Donald's grandpa, passed int he preset, while Daphne and Eider are his aunt and uncle, all grabbed from various barks ephimera or the offical family tree he made. Daphne has golden hair, supernatural luck and the misfortune of having birthed Gladstone, while Eider is naturally Fethry's dad, who Rosa reluctnatly included in some versions of the tree as Fethry wasn't a barks creation. Me.. I don't see any harm in Fethry being included. Barks isn't the be all end all of the universe... he is damn awesome though and I respect that. case in point the names were curbed from various non barks grandma duck stories.

You might notice though I didn't mention Donald's dad. Well he was just running behind and has the calm, measured response to the accident you'd expect from Donald's father.

Yup: this folks.. is how Donald's parents met. And it's one of the best scene's in the series, especially what happens right after.

It's comedy gold, fits him perfectly , and once again seems to be the mcduck way... unless your these two

I mean does it count if it only started with ONE of them shouting? Riddle for the ages.

As for why the Woodchucks are involved they've taken old fort duckburg atop the hill as their headquarters. He shouts get off my land and they do.. but naturally an old man shouting at them isn't enough to convince these children of land ownership so worried he might be a crook, they call for help in the only way the nation knew how at the time

Yes folks there's a reason this was a president's day specail as the phone tag gets so bad THE PRESIDENT HIMSELF gets informed a "scottish billionare has taken over a military installation on the coast", a great gag. Incensed Teddy reactivates the rough riders and prepares to deal with this personally fist to face. h back when presidents could legally punch corrupt billionaires in the face. If only Biden would pass that legislation. or any legislation.

It takes a week for him to get moblized as our heroes have spent it taking the barrels up river, as Scrooge begins his lousy streak of taking advantage of his family. This will only get worse from here and is never as funny as Don Rosa thinks.

Anywho, Scrooge knocks on a homesteader's door but they refuse to answer or be helpful. Turns out it's the beagle boys, lead by the future grandpa beagle. Rosa admits making him the same character makes him 165 by the time of "A Little Something Special" but honestly this universe is JUST weird enough for that to be plausible. Not 2017 DuckTales levels of madness

But still pretty nutty. So as scrooge takes a money bath to Hortense's exasperation some guests arrive at the fort. Who is it?

Yeah the Beagles quickly kidnap hortense, having gone after Scrooge for revenge for putting them in stir back in chapter 2. THey also lock scrooge in one of his own barrels. Beofre he can break it through sheer force of pissed off, a shell breaks it... and the beagles and scrooge both have bigger problems

Scrooge's response is naturally "Get off my lawn you damn united state's navy!" which gets him blasted at. The Beagles are thankfully too busy begging scrooge to give up so they can live, leaving Scrooge to do what he does best: be badass in the most insane way possible

By godfrey I love this stupid gag.

Teddy, being the only entiity nearly as badass as scrooge , responds in kind leading to a clash for the ages

I love every part of this scene from the sheer badassery of scroog'es one liner to that final charge. And of course best of all hortense taking on an ENTIRE CALVARY and WINNING before some traditional duck flirting as is the way.. except maybe also for these two

At any rate the conflict is over: Teddy takes out the trash and one of Scrooge's greatest headaches begins in earnest

WE cut to 6 months later. So I guess it's three days but semantics. Scrooge has built his money bin and plans to fill it and while Matilda is doubtful scrooge is joyful, even giving the Woodchucks a doorknob as their calling in Teddy stopped the beagle boys. As we end the chapter we get the full sight of the greatest structure in all of duckburg and one of the most iconic locations in all of disney.

And thus we end this chapter.. and it's a laugh riot with tons of gorgeously drawn action, well done punchlines and bunches of lore stuffed in. IT's everything great about this series compacted into a tight smaller scale story... granted it's a smaller scale story that involved the entire navy and marines, but for Scrooge that's small.

Character wise since this is only maybe a week after the previous one Scrooge hasn't changed much.. but like last time you can see the cracks in his personality here and there, the darker parts that are about to consume him: He uses his sisters as free labor, yells at just about everyone and his response to every conflict is to shout at it. Granted it usually worked, but i'ts clear the more vicious sides of scrooge that never completely go away are creeping more and more into him and overshadowing the noble man he once was. they haven't completely consumed him yet.. but well that's for next time, sometime this spring or early summer.

Rather than leave on that ominous note i'd like to talk Hortense and Quackmore some more. I love them and while their chemistry's simple, they yell until they bang hard, simple, they are genuinely adorable and it's easy to see where a lot of donald comes from just watching the two: Hortense's obession with dating "a real cowboy" before meeting quackmore and sorta zoning out mid rage both have traces of Donald's own hyperfixations and tendency to leap without thinking. It's nice to sneak those subtle bits in and I applaud rosa for it.

One last thing related to the two: turns out this causeda BIG stir in italy and some other parts of europe. Rosa was suprised as , due to the family tree I mentioned, the names of donald's parents weren't a bit secret. He also took another shot at the duck comics not being big in the us, the usual Don Rosa Yells at Cloud Stuff. Point is he was shocked by it.. but me .. I get it. It's the same thing that happened when Della showed up in Ducktales. Yes a comic had given an explination and her name had been seen, and we'll see her breifly in chapter 11 of this very comic.. but we didn't really KNOW her and most things she's in are either obscure , said comic wasn't reprinted here far as I can tell, or simply a mentoin. We knew OF her bu tdidn't know her as a person.

That was the same with Hortense and Quackmore before this story: We knew of them and despite Rosa keeping it vauge for readers less familliar with the family tree, it's pretty obvious from the moment we see her grown up that Hortense is Donald's mom. Here we get to see her as a young person herself, her eccentrcities, her rage, and who she really is. We also get to see Quackmore who.. okay he's just perpetually pissed off but it's still something. There's a diffrence between a name on some suplimentary material and a character and Don Rosa created a fantastic one in hortense, to the point i'm still disapointed we never met her in the series.

Next Time: The darkest day of Scrooge's life, some attempts to recocnile na old racist story, and the hardest chapter of this comic to read. Thanks for reading.. and welcome back.

Propaganda below!

Luther Hargreeves

He is a weird huge monkey man with daddy issues. What’s not to love 

Spaceboy!

Della Duck

just look at her shes badass she amputated her own leg and made a prosthetic out of spare rocket parts shes not perfect but shes trying her goddamn best to be a good mother okay she is The character ever

greatest character of all time!

dear tournament runner i am so so sorry for the essay i'm about to write but i am not normal about my girl della

della duck is donald duck's twin sister and huey dewey and louie's mother

the whole history behind her is so interesting bc she unintentionally became the greatest mystery of the disney duck comic verse

one of disney's many weird rules is that their main 6 characters are not allowed to have children or parents. this rule is kinda wobbly in the sense that on one hand, it does get broken (goofy has a son in some canons & donalds mother is shown in some comics (though only in scrooge's flashbacks, she's never allowed to interact with donald)), on the other hand, it also tends to sometimes get applied to characters who are not part of the main 6 but still main characters. this rule meant, that when they wanted their main characters to interact with kids, they invented nieces and nephews. which had the added bonus that when they wanted to stories without them, they didn't have to explain the kids' absence (like for example mickey's nephews, which barely ever appear and, fun fact, were actually invented before huey dewey and louie). so, in one newspaper comic strip, huey dewey and louie were introduced and with them, della was mentioned for the first time, in a letter asking donald to take care care of the boys while their father is in a hospital from a prank they pulled. (said father was never mentioned again btw.)

after that, della didn't appear again for a while, and several shorts and comics revealed that donald has legally adopted the kids. different comics implied that donald has been taking care of the triplets their entire life, instead of just since recently like in their first appearance.

later comics actually showed della for the first time - however, only in flashbacks to donald's childhood. these comics also made her donald's twin. the only piece of media that showed her as an adult was her portrait in the duck family tree.

that is, until 2014 the first comic showing adult della and her fate was released - a dutch comic that was only reprinted in brazil, germany and the netherlands, and even in those countries, anything containing this story is pretty hard to get. it was never officially translated to english (thank god for fantranslations, tho). this comic showed della as a pilot, who tested a rocket and got lost in space when huey dewey and louie were babies. this is where her association with space and a lot of her ducktales 2017 characterisation originates from.

so, let's get into her biggest ever appearence - the ducktales reboot!

from the very beginning of this show, she's set up as the big overarching mystery - a little bit like the author from gravity falls. the pilot ends with dewey discovering a painting of her. it's a very shocking moment and for most viewers the first time they've ever seen della.

so like in the comic, she's a pilot, and she's been going on adventures with donald and scrooge for years. scrooge builds a rocket for her as a surprise gift for when her children hatch but she finds out about it and decides to take it for a test ride, during which she crashes it on the moon. so, she's stuck there, but nothing can stop della duck! she spends the entire 10 years fixing the rocket until she finally manages to get back to earth to her kids.

della is funny, strong, determined and just one of the best characters in the entire show. and she tries so hard to be a good mom to her kids after being absent for a decade even though she struggles so much to adjust back to life on earth.

i just love della so so much

#would have drawn varre as donald if the failings of my body did not prevent it

"Mohg as a Kingdom Hearts character"

That tag alone inflicted me with the mwntal images of Mohg dressed up like Sora.

...

I mean, Sora has the spikey hair! Mohg's horns could pass for the hairdo!

🤔🤔🤔

My wrist was aching too bad to finish so just imagine how silly and large his shoes are in the second image

Fun Facts:

Fun fact I based the Swanstaine outfit for Agent Duck off of some concept art from dt17 and one of them had Donald in a trench coat. Here: https://www.tumblr.com/andysuriano/166323082581/some-more-ducktales-woohoo-development-that-got

It just fit agent Duck so well I chose it as his fit for Swanstaine mostly cause it fits the mystery and badass feel he gives off. And I added the cigar to add even more of the vibe that he’s cool as fuck. (Also cause well the old cartoons when smoking was seen as normal) (Donald’s a bit of a smoker, so he smokes to relieve stress at times, same with drinking) also a dumb idea is that during this time he has a British accent and basically throws wine bottles at scrooge to troll his ass. (Based on Barok Van Zieks from the great ace attorney duology, cause that’s the voice he has in this episode)

//////////////////////////////

Also small section for the clones and their design inspirations: (as for names I already explained where they come from for both sets of clones)

The Female Clones Amphitrite and Doris (Donna and Dottie)

Amphitrite’s design is based on this female Donald from one of the Duck comics (Magica did a sex change spell mostly as a gag I think idk haven’t read that story) (I don’t know the name sorry)

As for Doris her design is based on this from a story called Gender Blender.

While the male clones are just Mini Donald’s literally. So not much to say there, Cause they are clones after all. (There’s info on them already)

But that’s it. I have no new ideas cause I’m stuck :/ (plus a break from duckverse for other stuff)

[thepagansun]

do you have any headcanons for Donald and Pete’s friendship?

Ooooh. Nice question. I do.

- I think that their friendship feels like big brother (Pete) and little brother (Donald) especially in their more recent cartoons because Donald was originally depicted as the youngest of his friends while Pete is technically Disney's oldest recurring character

- Pete almost adopted Donald ("Officer Duck")

- They share many common interests: love of boats, love of cars (in particular RVs), love of fishing, love of music, and they both enjoy working with their hands, they both love wrestling, they both have heritage besides American.

- Based on "Mickey's Service Station"(1935) and "Timber" (1941), Pete seems to have French Canadian heritage because he has a French accent. So I like to think that Pete's father was French Canadian and his mother was American. And Donald is half Scottish thanks to his mother, Hortense McDuck.

- Based on the above headcanon, while Donald is famous for his pancakes among his family in the European comics, he gets his maple syrup from Pete who gets it from Quebec. In order to get it, he always has to do Pete some favor.

- WWII left its mark on both of them and they always spend two days of the year together. Can you guess which ones? (Hint: Think military)

- Pete refuses to acknowledge that ducks technically have two birthdays (the day the egg was laid and the day they hatched) and only recognizes June 9 as Donald's birthday. But...he sometimes goes on March 13 for free cake and ice cream. He won't bring a gift on March 13, but in exchange, he'll tell Donald a story (since Pete notices that Scrooge gets away with not bringing gifts by telling stories)

- Except for Daisy and HDL, Pete doesn't like Donald's family. He doesn't like how Donald will bend over backwards for them and how Donald's family doesn't appreciate Donald. In one comic, Pete got the Beagle Boys to drug Donald (who he called "our dear little Donald") and HDL while they tried to steal Scrooge's Money.

- Pete and Donald will sometimes sleep near each other (this was seen in a few cartoons)

- Pete taught Donald French because he couldn't quite understand him in English originally and because of this when Walt Disney (who was their boss) asked Pete who he should send as an ambassador to Latin América, Pete suggested Donald (who was a bit depressed since it was still during WWII). Walt Disney at first didn't want to since he thought they wouldn't be able to understand him but Pete said that he already taught him French and Spanish and Portuguese wouldn't be too hard to learn after that. So Donald went...and met José Carioca and Panchito Pistoles.

- Pete helped Donald through the worst parts of WWII and so whenever Donald feels emotionally damaged, he'll go to Pete who will cheers him up by doing something they both love

- Donald seems to be the only Mickey Mouse friend who knows Peg isn't PJ's (who he calls Junior) biological mother and is the only one who met him as a little kid/brat ("Bellboy Donald")

- Pete knows that Donald's desperate desire to fly during WWII was his desire to find his sister, Della before Donald decided to offically adopt Huey, Dewey and Louie on his tax return

- Whenever Donald fights with Scrooge and needs a job, he can always go to Pete who will give him one

- Pete has a bunch of nicknames for Donald, the most common being "Quackers" and "Ducky" (when he's particular affectionate)

- They still fight each other sometimes. Pete is stronger under normal circumstances, but when Donald gets truly mad...he surpasses anything Pete can do. Pete fought Donald twice ("Canvas Back Duck" and "Tapped Out") and lost both times. But they both have a grudging respect for each other.

- There's a stamp that shows them giving blood together (The Gambia D1)

- Pete doesn't believe that Donald has bad luck and instead thinks that most of Donald's issues are caused by his own recklessness. This is partly because in Goof Troop, Pete says that Goofy has bad luck when he never said anything like that about Donald

- In some other media, they're depicted as being quite close. And Pete is the only one of the Mickey crew that's involved in almost all of Donald's media. For example, he's the only that shows up in the Carl Barks comics. He had cameos in 1987 Ducktales and in Legends of the Three Caballeros. And you can tell Donald had an influence on Pete's character in Goof Troop.

I might think of more but these are the main headcanons. 😁

[teleportzz]

character ask game 1, 9 & 20 for daisy duck?

1. Why do you like or dislike this character? I really like how quickly and naturally she integrates into the Duck-McDuck family life. Her first time meeting Donald in dt17 is when he's pulling an elaborate con with his nephews and she immediately takes control of her situation and does what she needs to do to save the party. She's just kind of badass honestly

9. Could you be roommates with this character? For the most part, yes, but I feel like she'd probably want the place very clean and I do not have the ability to keep my living space consistently tidy so I think that would cause problems eventually

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter? Fethry Duck! I think they would both be very good at listening to each other infodump about their respective interests and I feel like his social awkwardness would not be a deterrent for her at all. I think they could have a wild conversation about fashion and sea life over a coffee for a whole afternoon and lose track of time!

[super-hero-confessions]

Rewatching those shitty Organization XIII parodies from the 2000s on YouTube (I still have nostalgia for them though) and reading some of the villain confessions (which bring up some recurring characters) made my remember an idea for a parody featuring on a group of villains from different franchises. It’s time to bring it to the light. Here is the idea for an incredibly OOC parody version of a villains League that rips off some parodies:

Sauron from Lord of the Rings- The leader of this group. Isn’t an eye in this form, still in his badass black armor from the beginning of the movie. However he’s anything but intentionally badass here; being an incompetent easily triggered boss who wastes time on stupid meetings and gets frustrated when the other members won’t stop talking. Most of the time he wouldn’t be actually doing anything of real substance, just bickering. Only occasionally would he enact a new plan for the group, but it would almost always end in disaster. Mandy in particular is vexed by all the inane decisions he pulled.

Q: Why the **** did you show up in the movie version of the Hobbit when you had nothing to do with the original novel? A: Because just like the rest of the Hobbit Trilogy, executive interference reared its ugly head.

Misa Amane from Death Note- An utter ass-kisser of a underling (mostly), she is devoted to her boss Sauron (not due to romance though, thats something she saves for a certain Light). Serves as the main henchman of Sauron to help him do whatever evil plan he has. Ironically Sauron really wants nothing to do with her. Too bad she keeps following him everywhere. She’s also one of the biggest writers of Freddy Krueger x Reader fanfiction, but unfortunately Freddy is not interested in her (nor any of the other members in the group) in any way.

Freddy Krueger from ANOES- still has his child killer backstory, the same cartoonishly evil personality and is the closest in all the villains to resembling his actual counterpart. The humor comes from his extraordinarily high amounts of fangirls and Freddy’s confusion as to why (even Misa is one of them). Currently has the highest Villains x Reader fanfictions dedicated to him in the entire group. Often is seen teaming up with Mystique to spread chaos unto whoever they choose, often tricking Azula.

Q: Did you know people ship you with Jason Voorhees? A: NO WAY, NO FUCKING WAY, I HAD NO IDEA! BECAUSE I SO TOTALLY DON’T HAVE INTERNET, I DONT READ THE COMMENTS, I DONT GO TO DEVIANTART, I DONT SEE THE FANFICTIONS! WOW! YOU GUYS ARE DUCKING GENIUSES, REAL DUCKING GENIUSES.

The Riddler from Batman- The supposed “smart guy” of this group. But in actuality, he’s really an incredibly arrogant know it all jerk. Emphasis on know it all. Feels like he doesn’t get any respect for his supposed “genius”, but really everyone else just doesn’t care (as Mandy and Donald constantly point out). In fact no one outside of Diva and Azula wants to be friends with him, not even Sephiroth. As such, he often works with Diva and Azula to work on incredibly convoluted and stupid plans, for often stupid reasons (that sometimes backfire stupidly).

Mandy from Totally Spies- The only sane person in this group. In stark contrast to her original portrayal, this Mandy is fairly chill, sociable, and doesn’t really know as to why she joined this loser squad. Hell Sauron doesn’t know why she’s here. Most of her snarkiness is based on her incompetent boss and some of the antics of the others, and she is the most openly snappy towards her boss at times. In fact she frequently asks why the group basically does nothing (though when Sauron DOES do something, she and the group would eat their words). And because she’s one of the five Asian members of the organization, some of the members ( Donald especially) give her the nickname “Pearl Harbor” (even though she’s Korean) much to her chagrin.

Q: Why do you deal with these losers? A: Gives me a reason to get hooked up on cactus juice with Mystique.

Sephiroth from FFVII- An emo with a Masamune and great swordsman skills but unfortunately is an edgy windbag. Constantly whines about being depressed, his mother, those heroes from his homeworld, and people making a sandwich every time he performs Supernova. Is constantly crying for the littlest of reasons much to the slight annoyance of the group. Donald especially looks down at him, and Freddy and Oogie nickname him “Emo Bates”. Often writes dark poetry about darkness and tries to have a band that rips off My Chemical Romance. Is a close second with Freddy as in who in the group has the biggest assortments of fangirls and reader insert fanfictions.

Q: Why do you have more health than Xemnas when he was the final boss of KH2? And how did you get your arse kicked by a 12-year old? A: First of all he was fourteen and then fifteen in those games, and as for why I have more health? Because Square won’t leave FFVII alone. Just like they won’t leave me alone, no one ever does…

Oogie Boogie (from The Nightmare Before Christmas)- Aside from being a boogeyman, he also has a career as a hit musician, he’s got record deals and gigs all around to deliver Oogie’s greatest hits. He’s also a bit of a gambler who invites games of Chance. 5 to 1 says Magneto isn’t really the father of those two twins, and that the actual parents were Mystique and Destiny, any takers?

Mystique from X-Men: For some reason Mystique sports a Valley Girl accent and personality here. Or a hippy mode. She uses her SHAPESHIFTING abilities to do some mild trolling but not to an extreme extent. Would often team up with Freddy for the lulz and take Sephiroth to the mall or Disneyland or whatever to make him lighten up more. Still is one of the more nicer characters in the group and she has a big problem with Riddler and Azula for their a-holery. True to her comics self; she’s happily bisexual (though oddly she doesn’t try her chances with either the male or female members of the group).

Q: If you had the ability to change anyone or anything, who would it be, and what do you do in your spare time? A: Like, I would like SOOOO change the Eternals movie into something that is actually good. And as for what I do in my spare time? Like you should totally check out AO3 to find out.

Donald Duck from Disney cartoons- The resident psychopath of this group. Often talks about inflicting violence in others while talking in the same duck voice. Even Sephiroth thinks Donald is taking it a it too far. Donald in turn really looks down on Sephiroth because of his emo ness, not helped by his knowledge of the two times he got his ass kicked by a kid with a key. Most of the members are apathetic to Donald’s psychopathy, though Mandy and Mystique think he should really lay it off with the magic, last time he played “Duck Flare” with someone, Oogie nearly lost all his bugs. A running gag is that Donald also believes certain fictional characters like Captain Planet and conspiracy theories are in fact real.

Q: Can you perform “Duck Flare” on those idiotic and jerkassistic comic fans? A: Already ahead of you, did it last week, Wak!

Azula from ATLA- A supreme ducking asshole! She and Donald have an epic **** fight and rivalry for some reason, almost always threatening to treat the other with hardcore violence. She often pulls pranks to everybody in the group, such as switching Oogie’s vinyl records with that of Nickelback (his most hated artist), giving Mandy a Japanese war plane as a “gift” (despite her being Korean), hacking FFVII so that Aerith lives (pissing Sephiroth off), etc. Ironically she’s often one of the few friends Riddler has, and they often hang out together doing dumb ****.

Q: I was wondering, How did you and Ty Lee meet? I think it could be an interesting story to share. A: Okay heres what I want you to do, go to AO3, search up the tags Azula and Ty Lee, choose one of the stories, I can guarantee you that is probably the reason how I and Ty Lee met maybe? …and if it’s under the rating of Mature or Explicit, then if you’re under the age of eighteen then please don't read it.

Diva from Blood+ (if you’ve never seen it, fuck youse and watch it!)- An vampire queen but also either completely stupid or completely insane, either way many in the group wonder how in the hell she can function. But still her easy going personality means she’s one of the few who can tolerate Riddler. She helps with Riddler in doing dumb shit and is the only person from the group he is willing to play games with. A running gag is that she constantly gets manipulated by Freddy and Mystique in whatever stupid schemes they’re pulling (like say somehow getting into Disneyland for free), but almost always Diva finds out somehow (probably because their plans end up pissing off some of the other villains like Mandy and Mystique and ends up kicking their asses.

General antics would be along the lines of Oogie Boogie trying to defeat the superheroes with music, the villains sans Sauron, Mandy, and Donald Duck trying to use their “Draco in Leather Pants” status for some goal but end up getting mobbed by insane fangirls/fanboys. Once Sauron forced Riddler, Misa, and Mandy to join him on a quest to kick the asses of an award ceremony because they wouldn't accept his abridged version of Tropic Thunder. And Misa of all people called it garbage then they just left to watch the latest movie at the theater after watching and openly criticizing him for the ineptitude of said abridged “quality”.

Also the Joker keeps popping in every now and then but Sauron and the others really don’t want him joining in. Riddler however is ecstatic, seeing him as a bestie, and Mandy just plain doesn’t care.

So people in the notes and reblogs, or more accurately, those who actually seen all the franchises these villains come from, what shenanigans do you see happening in this parody?

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Kingdom Hearts

[If you don't have a ship in this fandom, don't worry, I don't have one either (maybe Aqua x Terra??? I don't know)]

HECK YEAH! I've been in this fandom for so long lolol

Character I would marry:

Xemnas and Vexen

Please do your headcanon about the growth of duck-girlfriends of Daffy, Donald, Fethry, Gladstone!

Based on this.

Magica DeSpell: 3.2 feet tall, busty/athletic, no sleep, magic "expert", broke af

Gloria Pascoalina: 3.1 feet tall, skinny, kooky aunt vibes, chill, super talktative

Daisy Duck: 3 feet tall, curvy/strong, fashion icon, confidence, takes no shit

Tina Russo: 3.5 feet tall, lean/athletic, casual badass, loyal friend, motorcycle races

I don't know how much of this is accurate (especially since I basically just found out about Gloria yesterday), but I will definitely stand behind Magica not getting enough sleep, Gloria being a kooky aunt, Daisy having confidence (she could do a business meeting in a kigurumi), and Tina doing motorcycle races in her free time.
