Dewey with glasses :3

HEAR ME OUT BEVQUSE THERES AN EPISODE WHERE HE GETS BLINDED AND STILL WALKS AROUND AND DOES PARKOUR PERFECTLY JUST BY “DEWEY-ING IT” SO IT WOULD BE SO SILLY IF THAT WAS JUST CAUSE HE ACTUALLY DOESNT HAVE GOOD EYE SITE TO BEGIN WITH

DuckTales: Smart, Tough, Sharp and...?

Yes, I know that when DuckTales '17 was planned, Webby (April McDuck) Vanderquack was planned to be the 'fair and square' out of Scrooge McDuck...but now that her identity as a clone and her sisters are out there, what does this make them?

Alternatively, what I believe had a fourth season been planned, while the male triplets have Scrooge's famous qualities (smart, tough and sharp), the female triplets could have different and/or more extreme angles on said qualities:

While Huey has Scrooge's intellect, Webby has his curiosity, which has been known to lead him into dangerous situations.

While Dewey has Scrooge's bravery, May has his seriousness, which has been known to shape the adventure capitalist into a miser.

While Louie has Scrooge's sharpness, June has his ability to manipulate, which has been known to stifle his relationships, for example, the Ghost of Christmas Past.

What does this mean? I don't know, but it makes sense why you see Huey with Webby a lot. Perhaps in S4 we could have gotten Dewey/May and Louie/June Episodes...and even one where they must work together to balance their flaws!

Hello, I'm writing a story where Grandma Duck has everyone in the family at her home, and they asks her to tell them a story. She proceds to tell them a love story about a forbittten romance. At the end of the story she reveals the couple is their family's ancestor. Who out of the existing Ducks do you think I could choose to be the couple? (and what should be the current Ducks reactions when they find out they are their ancestors?)

Hi, sorry for the late reply, but I think I answered this question before which you can read here: https://ducklooney.tumblr.com/post/753671286120644608/hi-im-creating-a-short-story-here-grandma-duck

However, when you mentioned the story of Grandma Duck, I would have mentioned her grandfather Cornelius Coot who was the originator of the Duck family we know today. Humperdink Duck is a descendant of his ancestors Don Dugo and Pintail Duck, while Grandma Duck has a special role, because her father Clinton Coot was the founder of Junior Woodchucks, while her grandfather Cornelius Coot was the founder of Duckburg. Yes, Elvira Coot (Grandma Duck) married Humperdink Duck. In the early 19th century, Cornelius went west to the Calisota area and founded the future town of Duckburg there and married a Native American duck. Although she was never named, some call her Pluckahontas. It can be said that their love has links to Romeo and Juliet and a mixed race love affair can be labeled as such. I guess that's what Grandma Duck meant when she told her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. There are also pictures of Cornelius and his wife, unfortunately I am not sure who the author is.

And if someone asks me, this is not Don Rosa, but some anonymous artist (artist who signed "M. W.") who did it for Don Rosa.

Yes, it can be said that it was a forbidden love, because they come from different people and Pluckahontas herself was the daughter of a chief of a tribe who did not want her to marry a white duck. However, they eventually got married and created their new family. Again that's just my theory and my guess.

I imagine that Donald and his nephews would be more in favor of being Native Americans after learning about their family tree, which is not surprising, since in the comics Donald's nephews often play Native Americans. They would have more of a spirit for freedom and what Native Americans usually have, a gift for nature and an understanding of animals.

Again, it is not certain if Clinton Coot was actually their son, as it is not known if Pluckahontas married Cornelius officially. Certainly, even if they didn't, they certainly felt for each other. At least in my opinion, but I think that couple would be the answer to your question.

And I'm glad that you asked that and that you are satisfied with my answers, to help you with your story. But by all means, if you have any other questions, feel free to ask me. Again that's just my opinion.

Amazing!

(spoilers) I have a bit of a pitch for you

So we know Darkwing Duck was canceled, 

But I’d like to tell you my stretch on HOW it was canceled, consider it a head canon.

And when I say stretch, I am not kidding.

It all is coming from this scene;

“Stubbed his toe really badly, Movie stars, One little boo-boo and they fall apart.”

The way he says this sounds like it holds a lot more than we know, mostly because he wasn’t around when Drake hurt his foot.

Because I mean look at this:

his stature is more intense then just being a jerk, like his personal history is reflecting.

Now bear with me while I explain the second thing that will back up my head canon:

His right foot has been a major key in this episode, considering the following images

What does the iron land on? Drake’s right foot

Which foot does he point to when he says “One little boo-boo and they fall apart”? His right foot.

What foot does Drake step on during the fight? his right foot.

Now to finish it off with this quote from Launchpad

 “He was an old school actor who did all his own stunts, sure he gotta little banged up in later seasons, but that just made him even more heroic”

What I think happened is he broke his leg during a scene for the next episode, and couldn’t film quick enough before the film producers found their chance to shut him down, which is a major loss for him and all that he was, no wonder some called him a washed up actor.

It really hurts my 90′s heart to think about what he went through, fame can really change a person, and to have the one thing that is going good for you taken away? I see why he became selfish.

I really think if Launchpad met him and the show wasn’t canceled, he probably would be a completely different person.

This may be a stretch but it adds depth into a character we just met, since things now are so different than before.

Needless to say I’m excited to see more, this is my favorite episode by far.

[cloud-navi]

So I finished DuckTales (2017), my thoughts:

⚠️ Spoilers ahead ⚠️

- Bradford Buzzard:

His feelings for hating adventure and chaos is valid but he should have told his grandma to fuck off and got therapy instead of trying to destroy it. Also its not his fault that Della took the Spear of Selene even if he told her about it.

You can’t have one thing without the other, there must be chaos if there is stability and vice versa.

- Webbigail Vanderquack and Bentina Beakly (Agent 22):

It was a good twist, but it makes me question where FOWL got Scrooge’s DNA to make Webby and why her exact clones (sisters) aren’t perceived as Scrooges kid like Webby is.

My theory: “The Papyrus of Binding only appears to a direct heir of Scrooge McDuck” I think it mean’s physically and emotionally. If June and May are Webby’s clones that means they are just as much Scrooge’s physical child as Webby is, except they don’t have a relationship with Scrooge. Scrooge even before knowing Webby was his kid thought of her like his Grandniece, like family, making her an heir like the boys.

For how much Beakly talked about how important and strong a family is together when getting the boys to talk to Scrooge again in Season 1, it doesn’t make much sense to have her go in alone without informing the family of what she knows of FOWL from SHUSH.

Goldie O’Gilt:

I love her so much, except in the ImpossiBin episode, there she was okay. At the end of the ImpossiBin episode Goldie calls Scooge assuming he took the fountain of youth when they agreed to keep it for both of them, (she went back to steal it for herself so she says). They made progress in the Youth Fountain episode and having Goldie call him about it being gone kinda defeats the whole purpose of their bonding in that episode. Except I understand they needed a character to tell him it was gone like the other missing mysteries but I find it defeated the whole point.

Lena and Violet Saberwing:

To me it looked like Violet’s parents adopted Lena and I’m all for that. Also love the hinted gay rep with their dads.

Magica De spell:

While it was Scrooge that blocked her spell, it was still her spell that she shot that turned her brother into a raven. Theres no reason or obligation for Scrooge to have caught him and give him to her when they were both terrible people. If anything her brother got a new chance at life as a raven instead.

I wish there was kinda a redemption arc when she was training Lena, if not for Lena a little redemption for Gladstone because I like those two.

Fenton Crackshell (GizmoDuck) and DarkWing Duck:

I like Drake with Fenton regardless if he’s Drake or playing DarkWing but I feel like he needs to accept that GizmoDuck is also a hero. Bro needs to know the difference between hero and vigilante.

Fenton is pretty bbg too <3

Launchpad McQuack:

Giant himbo and I love him so much.

Daisy Duck:

Love her, not much else to say. She had standards, that was clear when we heard what she said while driving away from their second date except she still fell in love and was willing to put up with Donald enough to go rescue him and keep going out. Overall a girl boss <3

Huey, Dewey and Louie:

While Dewey should have come forward earlier about looking for Della I understand his intentions more then Huey did when he found out. Louie was right, its not okay, but in the beginning Dewey was just trying to find if she was alive or not, not where she was. He was sorry because he ‘got caught’, he was genuinely sorry. It’s difficult to want to tell someone you’re finding all this stuff about someone you all seek when none of you know if they’re even alive or not. Dewey didn’t want them to lose hope that Della may be alive even if he found out she might not have. Yes he should have told them but I understand he didn’t want to them to be more hurt that she’s unalive instead of just missing. Also they aren’t even teenagers and communication skills are ass with teenagers what makes you think they’ll be any better as 10 year olds?

Again, their anger is misplaced when they’re mad at Scrooge for building a Spear of Selene.

Scrooge McDuck (sugar daddy?):

I like his character and I feel theres a bit of development through out the show with him and the kids, to be a teacher you need to be able to learn from your students.

While yes, he shouldn’t have built the rocket right there he also didn’t tell Della about it. Not his fault she left. Also the audacity to find out it wasn’t really his fault or the fact he nearly went bankrupt looking for her and they didn’t apologize at all.

Donald Duck (DILF):

Literally the best man in the whole show. He put his family first the whole time even when he should have taken breaks except he stepped up. We know that he had some form of falling out with Scrooge because of Della but even so he stepped up to take the kids and stayed in DuckBurg instead of moving anytime in the 10+ years they lived there. I have a feeling they stayed because he knew deep down that he could somewhat still count on Scrooge if not Beakly. Why else would he have stayed and gone to Beakly to watch the kids, granted he didn’t want to talk to Scrooge, Scrooge still took them in and watched them while Donald was off getting a job.

Donald may not be their bio-dad, but he is no way a fucking Uncle. He raised those boys by himself for 10+ years, through their formative years and until they were old enough to know he wasn’t their bio-dad. He stepped in to be a parent because Della chickened out and chose to go to space even when he told her she shouldn’t so she can be with her kids.

Donald Duck, not an uncle, a father.

Della Duck (cool-ish weird Aunt):

My opinion has not changed, she still isn’t a mother to me. Della is an estranged aunt that comes by and is the ‘cool aunt’. She willingly, without obligation, without threat, consciously CHOSE to leave her kids. Regardless of if she knew she would get killed or stuck in space, “there were too many variables” -Huey. She had a fight with Donald that specifically told her that it was a giant, dumb fucking idea with kids on the way. The idea that anyone would accept her back as a parent so blindly is so dumb. Yes she’s their egg-layer, but there is no way in hell she is their mother. A MOTHER would never choose to leave their children unless they positively fucking had too (obligation for safety). Whether or not she regrets it holds no power because she still chose to leave for a stupid reason.

Season 1 finale: “Get away from my kids” by Donald Duck will forever hold more power and significance then anytime she ever says it because she gave up parent rights before they were born. No parent would willingly, without valid cause like their safety (not fucking exploring space for funzys) would leave their child.

Over all:

Scrooge and Donald are DILFS and Della can get bent.

[icantthinkofagoodnameoranything]

So, you know those AUs/theories where Bradford manipulates Della until the spear incident? That but with Webby. Like Bradford listens to them Mcduck rants and takes notes, gives her new info on Mcduck and lets them put a friendship bracelet on him (though he hides it under his sleeve.)

A little bit after Donald and HDL move in, he introduces her to F.O.W.L. He explains that he genuinely cares about Scrooge but his adventures hurt people and the town. He shows examples of people getting injured, businesses being closed and general destruction caused by adventure. He also says that he sees her as a daughter and always worries when she goes on such dangerous adventures, which sticks with her.

she continues adventuring but tries to be safer for Bradford. She also visits F.O.W.L more, getting to know some Eggheads, Steelbeak and Heron. By the time Lena tries to get them to lead her to the other bin, Webby refuses. She also starts to get in more spats with Dewey from her trying to be safer.

Despite the squabbling, Webby and Dewey always make up in the end. She still feels apart of the Duck family, they just also see some F.O.W.L members as family too. Until “The Last Crash of The Sunchaser.”..

In between the few months between the last crash and the shadow war, Webby vents to Bradford about Scrooge saying she wasn’t family. Bradford says they will always be family to him and the rest of F.O.W.L. Webby tears up. Then Bradford mentions that Webby always had her mother and stops mid sentence. When Webby demands he elaborates, Bradford looks very grim and says something along the lines of “I can’t believe Beakly never told you…”.

Webby is even more confused. Then Bradford says he knows where they’re mother is and she’d be able to explain much better then him. Then he holds her hand and leads her into the lighthouse.

[sleepy-stories]

Why do i think della duck is a nepotistic character?

I am finishing up making the speedpaint and while listening reddit stories on tiktok. This one story came up and was a " am i the asshole" story and it was about twins. The story is that op is a twin who is planning to not attend a birthday that was set for his twin brother's birthday besides sharing the same one. Fyi, he didn't attend but everyone even the brother thought it was weird and rude to do this (the party and the person who set it up). The person who set it up was a bitch and soon fell out of place.

Anyway...

This made me think of della and donald duck. Then i thought even deeper on it and...it lead me to this question that i mention on the top.

Like this could another add to an au (behind the scenes) or actually. It literally made me come to believe/think that della duck is a nepotistic duck.

Oswald the lucky rabbit isn't this (if you think this with their character existence out side the universe of disney/ducktales) oswald wouldn't be this but della duck could.

Everyone knows della duck as twin/sibling to Donald duck and the parent of Huey Dewey and Louie. But its more on the familiar relationship to donald duck if people still don't know huey dewey and louie.

Does anyone think this too or am i the only one who thinks this random theory/headcanon?

[writebackatya]

💬

Oh man, all day I was thinking about what part of Let’s All Go to the Movies! I wanted to talk about, let’s go with the one you helped write!

I love this exchange and to me it would only work if the characters were speaking proper Spanish which I don’t know. And I just headcanon that both Fenton and Gosalyn are bilingual and just wanted to share that headcanon with everyone

Also I just love to think that whenever Webby hears anyone speaking in a language that she knows how to speak that isn’t English she gets excited and uses the opportunity to speak that language

And in case anyone was wondering what these ducks were saying because you don’t speak Spanish and didn’t bother translating it, here’s the original dialogue in English that tokuvior translated for me:

“Oh fuck me, it’s Ordinary Guy!” Gosalyn exclaimed in disbelief.

Fenton leaned forward and looked over to Gosalyn with a rather disappointed look on his face. “You do know that you’re not the only one here who speaks Spanish, right?”

“Oh shit! I mean, sorry! It was an accident, I swear! It won’t happen again.”

“I think I might have a little talk with Drake when I see him…”

“Please don’t Fenton! I already made a deal with Gandra that I wouldn’t swear any more around Dewey and Webby, and at least they didn’t hear, right?”

“Are we all speaking Spanish now?” Webby jumped into the conversation. “Can you believe that Ordinary Guy was the main bad guy the entire time! It looks like my second theory was right!”

[fantasticenthusiasttale]

Duck theory: In portuguese, "Huey, Dewey and Louie" are called "Huguinho, Zezinho and Luisinho", and their real names ("Hubert, Deuteronomy and Louis") are "Hugo, José and Luís". You know what I mean. You know who are called José too...

What if Donald (or Della) didn't knew what name put in them when they born and just "Hey let's name the blue boy with my friend's name"

[shychick-52]

Gyro's lack of concern for Boyd in 'The Last Adventure' (long post)

In 'The Last Adventure', when Gandra revealed to Huey and Gyro that in order to destroy adventure, Bradford was going to not only erase the Missing Mysteries, but also everyone even remotely associated with Scrooge and the Ducks- families, allies, enemies, and everyone else in-between... Gyro didn't seem the horrified or terrified.

He looked typically annoyed or indifferent to their situation. This is strange, considering how he'd seemed very interested in figuring out F.O.W.L.'s plan ever since they arrived at the Lost Library (although this was likely to save his pride from earlier after even he- the genius of the group- didn't really have any theories on what F.O.W.L.'s ultimate plans for the Ducks were).

What's strange about this is that now he's got someone in his life to love, care about, and consider his own family, somebody to both live for and to keep safe. His son Boyd. You'd think he'd be terrified that he and Boyd would lose each other again- and permanently this time- after only recently finding one-another and starting over together (let's face it, Gyro and Boyd need each other on so many levels, and I'm positive they both recognized that ever since 'Astro B.O.Y.D.')!

In the scene where Dewey and Louie find Huey and Gyro (along with Gandra and Ludwig Von Drake) locked up, you’d think the first thing out of Gyro’s mouth would be “What are you two doing here?! Where’s Boyd?? Is he ok?”

Scrooge had ordered the team of kids to stay on the plane and await his signal while the adults stormed the Lost Library... until the kids realized that something must have happened to the adults after ages went by without any word from them, and decided to split up to find them (after Dewey's air-battle with Don Carnage and the plane crash). So, when Dewey and Louie- who were in charge of their team back on the plane- suddenly showed up outside their cells without the rest of the kids, you’d think Gyro would have known something was wrong and immediately wanted to know if Boyd was ok.

Instead, this was how that scene played out:

Gyro: Quickly, you two! Open our cells by reversing the polarity of the triple-wired coupling! (Now, tbf, he did sound pretty urgent there)

Dewey: We are children!

Gyro: *deadpan* Cut. The Red. Wire.

*Dewey and Louie shrug and go to do it*

Gyro: *sarcastically* When they do something right, they’re heros. When it gets a little hard, ‘we’re children’!

Not only that, but he never once mentioned Boyd at all throughout the rest of the episode or gave any indication he was thinking about him; you’d think he’d want to know where Boyd and Lil Bulb were and if they were ok (especially once he learned that Bradford planned to erase everyone from existence)! I know he entrusted them to keep each other safe, which was probably his only source of hope and comfort, but STILL.

As indicated in the above captions, at least he was concerned for Huey, and that is definitely something (especially since Huey was the one who helped Gyro learn the truth about a past that haunted him for years and reunited him with Boyd)! But still, it would have been even more meaningful if he'd expressed concern for Boyd there (and with even more emotion).

When Huey told Dewey and Louie in the above scene "Guys, if this is the end, I'm glad we're together", that would've been a perfect moment for Gyro to pipe up about Boyd, because surely he missed him and wished they were together! (And for Gandra to say she wished she was with Fenton, who she hadn't seen for weeks ever since F.O.W.L. captured her!)

(Bradford and Heron letting Scrooge and the prisoners- HDL, Webby, Gyro, Gandra, and Ludwig Von Drake- see each other while threatening to erase Scrooge's entire family unless he cooperates, just so they all know what's at stake)

When Webby explained to May and June what true family is about (shortly after the above scene), most of her words reminded me of Boyd and his found family in his long-lost father Gyro: "Heron made me, but she's not my family. Family are those who fight for you, stick by you, blindly invade a sinister villain's secret stronghold for you. Family would do anything to keep you safe and sacrifice everything to love you, no matter who and what you are!"

.....Akita had a hand in creating Boyd, but that didn't make him Boyd's family. He meant to use him for evil all along and corrupted the innocent child-like nature Gyro lovingly programmed him with; but Gyro had poured his heart into him, welcomed him into the world and told him he was a real boy, and loved him like a real son (including advocating to Akita about Boyd being more a person than just a machine). And in the episode 'Astro B.O.Y.D.', when Gyro learned what Akita did to Boyd, he went feral like any protective parent defending their child after somebody did them an injustice- he fought for Boyd against Akita both verbally and physically- then put himself straight in the path of the rampaging Boyd in an attempt to break him free of Akita's control ("You are a definitely real boy!")... quite prepared to die trying. And what makes the parallel between Boyd and May and June even stronger is that all three children were corrupted and used for evil by the adults who created them (ok, Gyro also had a huge hand in Boyd's creation and development, but it was Akita who used him for evil), deprived of the chance to be happy and loved.

That's why when things looked their darkest there, with Gyro knowing Boyd was somewhere out there- not knowing where he was or if he was ok- you'd think he would've become especially desperate or inspired to get out of there so he could find him before they lost each other for good. As Webby gave her family speech, there should have been a close-up of Gyro looking emotional or deeply thoughtful (indicating he was reminded of Boyd). And/or after her speech, he could have piped up in agreement and vehemently said he's learned the meaning of family for himself ever since Boyd returned to his life (and I mean, he only had one line of dialogue from the whole time they were all tied up together in that room to the end of the episode, and I'm very disappointed his very last line wasn't anything that further emphasized his relationship with Boyd or his character development in general).

[general-klumpp]

DuckTales THEORY: Team Who?

Hello Duckblr! We know that in DuckTales 2017, Huey, Dewey and Webby have their own definite cliques, but what if this idea were to extend to each of the six Duck children in hypothetical future seasons?

TLDR: If DuckTales kept going on, we would have seen more Louie/Doofus/Goldie episodes. May's interrogative side can blend her in with the Rescue Rangers.

Team Science (Huey)

Huey's group of allies usually revolves around working on scientific breakthroughs and his hero, Gizmoduck. Huey stories would usually involve these specific characters:

Gyro Gearloose

Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera (Gizmoduck)

Manny

BOYD

Gandra Dee

Huey's enemy is usually Mark Beaks, a businessman who makes his living off dumb and/or stolen ideas, which is totally against his moral code. If executed better, Dr. Akita could make a better contender.

Team Action (Dewey)

Dewey's group of allies usually revolves around getting into dangerous situations, definitely not due to the influence of Launchpad or his very own mother, Della. Dewey stories would usually involve these specific protagonists:

Launchpad McQuack

Della Duck

Drake Mallard (DW)

Gosalyn Waddlemeyer (an extension of DW)

Kit and Molly

Dewey's enemy is usually Don Karnage, a deranged air pilot who will go to any lengths to gain vengeance on him. Falcon Graves has also appeared in Dewey stories, a serious contender for his showboating.

Team Scheme (Louie)

Despite being shown to be a charmer in the show, Louie falls flat when it comes to making secure friends, especially when it's in his nature that he is the 'evil triplet' of the Duck boys. However, the cunning antihero, Goldie O'Gilt is quite fond of him. Louie stories would definitely involve these specific characters:

Goldie O'Gilt

Doofus Drake

Ottoman Brothers (placeholder because they're always in the background of Louie stories)

Although Louie completely destroyed Glomgold in S2, I'd love to see Rockerduck as his enemy, as the Wild West Swindler has a more interesting way to battle - with his words, instead of his fists.

Team Magic (Webby/April)

Webby's group of allies usually revolves around trying to fix the curses laid out from Scrooge's adventures, or his most powerful enemy, Magica De Spell. Webby stories would usually involve these specific characters:

Lena Sabrewing

Violet Sabrewing

Blackarts Beagle (redemption arc??)

Phantom Blot and Pepper (maybe they're forced to team-up??)

Morgana (placeholder because they don't have a grown-up hero)

Webby and Lena's enemy is usually Magica De Spell, a witch who wants to use her powers to abuse and take advantage of others, completely opposite to how Webby wants to play.

Team Mystery (May)

Despite the wishes of her current guardian, Donald Duck, I could see May get into contact with her ilk, also experimented on by FOWL - no other than the Rescue Rangers themselves!

Chip and Dale

Gadget Hackwrench

Monterey Jack

Zipper

...and maybe Detective Gokart from the comics (a loser that May could help to become a better person)

Perhaps the Rescue Rangers have found a larger FOWL experiment gone rogue and they need a heroine around their size to help bring the experiment to justice.

Team ??? (June)

Team Sports? Team Wellbeing? Team Theatre? Team Adorable? It seems that poor June is the only one I can't think of for a team.

By process of elimination, the only frequent group of protagonists without a child character to support them are the gods/goddesses of Ithaquack.

Bum Bum Ghigno, an everyday person from the comics might help her appreciate the normal and might draw parallels between the clone twins and his relationship with his brother.

I'd love to put the Idle Hour Club from Donald's first ever cartoon somewhere, but those stories wouldn't be fun.

God please please please if someday you will give me a QP reboot / revival i hope the producers keep the original QP triplets personalities i need to see THESE ducks again

I need to Louie to pick fights with hunters and cops to protect defenseless animals. He being extremely inconsequential, adventurous and curious and giving his brothers a headache. Him being the silliest little creature whose social skills sucks...

I need seeing Dewey being such a nerd, being the craziest builder ever, being a failboy and making theories about alliens. Being the brain of the group with angst reflexive moments. Oh yeah, and a COMPLETE bookworm

I need HUEY. GOD, I NEED HIM!! I need his ironic and sarcastic personality! Yes, that sassy Huey who doesn't take shit and is extremely calculating and mocking. The Huey who has an evil laugh and appears to be evil but is actually a cinnamonroll who cares deeply for his family. I need him to be cool but a complete loser pathetic.

Ducktale day. Split Sword of Swanstantine, advance with all the kids. What team up did like more, Dewey and Webby, or Lena and Hewy or Violet and Louis each of them getting a villain to fight. Louis know in pub of outlaws. Hewy not wanting to unleash his inter Donald. Any theories on the cliff-hanger with Fowl having a feather.

I think I'll have to go with Violet and Louie. I wouldn't have expected to enjoy them together so much going into their segment, but I actually really like their dynamic. Violet dunking her head in the water to scream might just be one of my favorite moments in the entire show. I also liked seeing a bit more of Rockerduck, so that was nice.

Louie learned the hard way that when you cultivate a reputation, sooner or later you'll be expected to live up to it. Luckily for him his actual exploits were much more impressive than the ones he made up.

Funny how of the triplets, Huey was the one to inherit that famous Duck anger, though it actually makes a lot of sense. Louie is too chill and lazy to get that worked up most of the time, while Dewey doesn't really restrain his emotions enough to build up energy and anger like that. Huey, as someone who prides himself on being calm, collected, and logical, has a lot of built up anger, similar to how Donald tends to be fairly mild-mannered until something sets him off.

To be entirely honest, before I even started watching the show I was spoiled on a very major twist for the finale, so I'm pretty sure I know exactly what that feather is going to be used for. Still, I'm very much looking forward to seeing how it actually plays out!

:)

MIKEY (mutant mayhem)

one of the mikeys of all time!!!!!

he’s a lot calmer and positive and yet still has this chaotic vibe about him (which is an iconic trait for any mikey to have)

i would so be friends with him if i knew him personally. i mean, how could i not?????? HE’S INTO IMPROV. THEATER KIDS OF THE WORLD UNITE!!!!!!!!!!

i own a plushie of him and it’s so goofy looking. 10/10, great to watch tv with, very strangleable. (should probably have marked the ‘SQUEAK’ square for that… oh well)

i saw theories that he may die or get badly hurt in the series or the next movie which. 1. crazy 2. if that happens i will start crying and never stop. hurt this man and you will have to face my wrath

also his voice acting is very good. him singing ‘hello’ very very quietly will never not be funny to me

APRIL O’NEIL (mutant mayhem)

SHE’S SO PRETTY YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND.

my loveliest lovely she’s so. lovely

i vibe with her soooo hard she’s such a great representation of an awkward teenage girl, i wanna hug her so bad 😭😭

IDK WHAT IT IS ABOUT HER BUT SHE’S MY FAVOURITE APRIL BY A LONG SHOT (though i do have a great appreciation for the glory that is 2003 april)

10/10 one of my favourite characters of all time. i would play minecraft with her. i would

you gave me the choice to talk about any ducktales character so of COURSE it’s gotta be dewey!

gotta get this outta the way. ben schwartz is such a great voice for him. like. this guy. absolutely greatest voice acting in the series, maybe tied with david tennant as scrooge mcduck

he feels a bit like me as a kid tbh. hyperactive, impulsive, needing constant attention, adventure and excitement, and also needing to be loved and respected by others so badly that he would put himself into danger. yep. that’s very me

literally just undiagnosed adhd in duck form i love him and i need like eight more of him to be happy

JAKE (tmf)

he’s such a pathetic little guy, what’s not to love about a pathetic little guy???

he sings, he’s easily flustered, makes life crushing mistakes and he simps for women??? literally me irl!!!!!!!!

i genuinely care so much for jake i could talk about him loads but i cannot find the words 😭😭😭

give him a fat dose of estrogen i think that could fix him

DREW (tmf)

banishing him. 10000 years of therapy for drew.

there’s something about him that’s just..,..,,,,,,, idk. i think he’s very not ok i needs help right now

he is DEFINETLY overrated to me, i do not care about him as much as most other tmf fans do, but those complex analysises of him i absolutely ADORE. yes keep getting under his skin!!!! study him and his brain!!!! figure out what went wrong!!!!

top characters i would use the head of as a pillow (i’d do it cus his hair gives me very soft and plush vibes. i’d also do it to fuck with him. i’m very evil)

LIAM (tmf)

i have little thoughts about him 😔😔😔😔 does give art freak vibes (lol just like me fr).

totally pretends he’s a vampire around gullible children because it’s funny

HENRY (tmf)

PATHETIC LITTLE LETTUCE BOY. LEAVE MY LINE OF SIGHT RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!!! I NEVER WANT TO SEE HIS SMUG ASS EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! (/j i love you henry!!!!)

look at him. he’s such a bastard. most bullyable character of the series

he’s so funny to me. like. hello????

his one crime is loving lettuce. that shit has the worst texture ever!!!!!!!!! lettuce enjoyers dni (another big fat /j)

would definetly kiss the homies goodnight. he doesn’t know he’s homosexual because he’s so unserious about it

ahem that’s all
