TS songs as Ducktales Characters, part II: Louie Duck

I think Louie quickly became a fan favorite for how easy it was to identify with him: his entire family is good at something he doesn't even enjoy.

In promotions, Louie was introduced as "the tongue" of the group and the most troublesome of the brothers, the evil triplet per se. Season 1 sticks to that: he is greedy and lazy. As such, showing Louie's negative qualities and its consequences was never a problem: Dime Chase shows all the trouble his laziness gets him into and the entire Living Mummies plot is about his skepticism and arrogance ruining adventures.

But in season 2 they go one step further: Louie has self-esteem problems regarding his uselessness in adventures (which scare him), but his way of analyzing and setting up scams is special in the family and relates him to his mother. He still lacks humility and responsibility, which he spends the rest of the series trying to learn.

Now, let's go with the Taylor song. My candidate is Mastermind.

Yes, I know it's a love song, BUT Mastermind, despite its romantic context, talks about all the planning and plotting you have to do for people to be interested in you. The part that matters to me for this is the bridge, where she explains that this is all due to the rejection she has suffered in her life and that all the plans she makes are because she cares about what people think of her. Almost the same as how Louie hides behind his identity as the sharper in the family, so they don't see him as just the one who ruins the adventures.

"Mastermind"

No one wanted to play with me as a little kid, so I've been scheming like a criminal ever since to make them love me and make it seem effortless. This is the first time I've felt the need to confess. And I swear I'm only cryptic and Machiavellian 'cause I care.

I'll try to get back soon with Webby if my anxiety allows it ( ´∀｀ )b

It felt like it's been a while, so I had a randomized marathon of Gravity Falls, DuckTales (2017), Amphibia and The Owl House today. All for the sake of my mental and emotional health.

Here's what I watched:

Eda's Requiem (Starting strong, I see...)

The Last Adventure (REALLY strong)

Something Ventured, Someone Framed

The Life and Crimes of Scrooge McDuck

Roadside Attraction

Follies at the Coven Day Parade

A Day at the Aquarium

Soos and the Real Girl

Who Is Gizmoduck?!

The Second Temple

Taking Charge

The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra

Some great ones and even a few underrated gems in this marathon.

[thehuggingisajustfortodaything36]

For my very first poll I have decided to do something that requires more than 10 options/choices and because there can only be one poll per post there will be multiple posts that all have to do with the same poll. This poll will be about which DuckTales (2017) episode you consider to be the best in the entire series. So if the episode you consider the best isn’t on this particular poll, don’t worry because there will be multiple posts that may have the episode you’re looking for on there. All the episode polls will end around the exact same time. Even though there will be multiple posts with a poll dealing with which DuckTales (2017) episode you consider to be the best, please treat this as a single poll and vote for one episode only. For example if the episode you’re looking for is here and you voted for it on this poll, please don’t go to the other posts to vote for an episode that’s on that poll. Have fun! 😊 ❤️ 🦆

Watched The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra and Terror of the Terra-Firmians for Ducktales 2017! Asks are open for those episodes!

[araminakilla]

This scene right here gave me so many feelings. Apart for acknowledging skyscrappers/modern cities exists in Egypt (about time! they are in the background btw) this is the closest situation we have with D'jinn and the Living Mummies. Now imagine this: You come from a different culture that doesn't celebrate Christmas but you still get gifts when you were a kid. Apparently this "Santa Claus" doesn't care what are your beliefs or religion, only that you and your peers are good people at heart and deserve a gift as a selfless act of happiness and goodwill. That is probably D'jinn's situation with Christmas, or at least the gift part. He thinks Santa is an honest, really good polar bear who deserves everything in the world for what he's doing each year.

Now he meets people who were trapped in a pyramid their whole lives and never heard of Santa. So D'jinn as the great storyteller he is began to tell them how wonderful the man is and that he cares for everyone to be happy.

Obviously the mummies get excited, especialy the kids. The falcons, jackals and the warrior decorate the pyramid for Santa's arrival (ancient egyptian style of course) and go to sleep.

But in reality they can't wait, so when the ones who entered the place left, everyone sees that they have presents and are overjoyed.

Of course Faris knew this would happen. And in a year where he obtained his family's lost heirloom, showed a rich duck family the importance of the sentimental value of things and helped the Mummies fight against alien invaders, he is 100% convinced Santa brought him a gift too. And there it is.

He picks up his present, unwraps it not caring what it is because the fact that Santa remembers him is enough and...

Coal. Only coal.

Lots and lots of coal. Coal for everyone.

Worse than that, coal with an invoice paycheck.

"But Mr.D'jinn...you say Santa only gives coal to those who are bad people" says a little jackal pup with tears in his eyes.

The warrior is almost speechless "Yes I did but... but..."

Adults are confused, some panic. Children are crying thinking they are bad and that Santa hates them. Amunet just looks at D'jinn with a look that says "What is the meaning of this? What went wrong? Are we bad people?"

The warrior can just stare at all the chaos, falls to his knees and screams in a dramatic way "SANTA WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME!?" without knowing it wasn't the polar bear who gave them coal but...

Him. This old capitalist greedy duck here not only lied to him about the lamp and "send help" that never came in the Moonvasion, but now he made him look like a big clown in what was probably one of the most important Christmas celebration of his life.

Sure, things got better at the end but, Scrooge... what the duck?

bruh moment ft. louie

i’m sorry for not posting i’m really busy with college apps and the queue ran out, but i’ll try to find time to replenish it soon!

[asofterduckburg]

I would never break your heart. Seven years bad luck!

[therealjordan23]

Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?*

Definitely Webby x Louie. I personally like the dynamic of these two on the show, they have personalties that compliment each other. I love the Louie/Webby episodes we get, such as The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra, The Ballad of Duke Baloney, and The Lost Harp of Mervana! a lot. As a ship, however, I don’t really see it, I feel like if they were ever involved romantically, it would ruin the foundation of the friendship that’s progressed in the last 3 seasons. There’s always a Louie/Webby episode per season, and you can see the progress they’ve made. So stick them together romantically, and it’ll feel weird to me.

More wholesome Scrooge and Webby content! 💖
