what’s your opinion on DT17 Gyro? /gen

Ohhh boy let me try to find a way to coherently word everything.

So like. On his own DT17 Gyro is fine. Not amazing, but not the worst character in DT17. But as a Gyro, he’s incredibly. Not great? Like he feels like such a separation from every other iteration of Gyro to the point where if it weren’t for the hat I wouldn’t believe that they were supposed to be the same character (but even then the hat is missing the iconic strappppp). Even taking into account Barks Gyro, who is by far the most….. abrasive, DT17 Gyro still seems like a huge separation? Like whenever I see him on screen I just think “Oh, it’s Jim Rash!” instead of “Oh, it’s Gyro!”.

This is definitely not helped by the fact that Frank seems to think that a character arc is point a to point b (Aka never seeing gyro again after AstroBOYD). Like it would have been genuinely interesting to see how DT17 Gyro grows as a character from finally confronting his source of trauma, but we just. Never see him after that. (Look me dead in the eyes and tell me that you count Beaks In The Shell and his like one line from the finale. Even then in BITS he’s still. Incredibly abrasive. Like if you told me it took place BEFORE AstroBOYD then I wouldn’t notice)

Also the fact that he gets SHAFTED OUT OF THE FAMILY GRRR HATE THAT HATE HATE MAULING FRANK AS WE SPEAK. It’s like. Hhhhhh. In Glomtales having Beaks fight LP instead of Gyro while making a quip about it felt like the point of no return for me. Like in older canons he got invited to some family lunches and called grandma duck “grandma”, it was so heartwarming and yet. They just left it. Cant believe that Gyro got replaced with Fenton.

SPEAKING OF FENTON

DT17 FENTON JUST. ABSORBED ALL OF GYROS GOOD TRAITS WHILE NOT REALIZING WHY THEY WERE GOOD TRAITS??????? Like now he’s just the “default science man hurrrrr durrrr I know chemistry and am smartttttt” seeing Fentons past ancestor in the Klondike episode remake the gizmoduck suit made me consider manslaughter.

What also doesn’t help Fenton absorbing Gyros role is also just. My stance on reboot Fenton? I have a whole ass rant on why DT17 Fenton is my most hated duckverse character but that’s for another day. (I am. Definitely going to make enemies with this post lmao)

Anyways back to Gyro this post is about Gyro. If I had never seen any other duck media and only watched the reboot? Yeah, I feel like I would like DT17 Gyro. Growing up with the DT87 and knowing about other duck media other than the reboot? It just makes me sad that the cultural consensus on my blorbo is now just “asshole abusive boss”

Also super offhandedly DT87Gyro autism rep >>>>>>> DT17Gyro autism rep

Here, as a little treat for listening to my insane rambling here’s a doodle of the man in question

CORRECT TAGS‼️‼️‼️‼️ @rn0na-lizard you are so so so correct….. my favorite ‘Normal Girl’ in hmds…….i almost never see anyone talk about these aspects of her let alone also love her for them as they should.

i feel like Leona/ DS lumina gets mischaracterized super often which is understandable bc out of all the DS candidates leona is the least like her ancestor (who i also love, for different reasons).

in AWL lumina was the only kid in the valley for a very long time, but many of the DS residents have lived in the valley their whole lives. while lumina had accepted her role as a proper young heiress by chapter 3 of AWL— and when DS begins Leona already at this point of her life— lumina still had a lingering sense of uncertainty and angst and loneliness and doubt, and unresolved worries about her parents. absolutely none of this is present with leona

in this world leona starts with Lumina’s 22 year old appearance, she’s just rich as hell and living her best life (as she deserves), she’s unabashedly shallow, puts herself first always, speaks so politely and affably yet she can be so casually cruel in the most genuine cute way and out of touch with reality and and i fucking love her and i’d die for her. my beloved girlboss girlkeep girlypop

more iconic Leona Moments

when muu/muffy asks for beauty advice leona’s recommendation is “this brand of mail order beauty cream is simply divine! and it was quite inexpensive too, just 100,000 G 🥰” everyone else looks uncomfortable and muu is like “you’re as frivolous as always….”

aside from the 3 who take literally half your money (Witch💖, moi, and thomas) leona and panama (romana) take the most money from you if they carry you home when you faint. just a couple of girl bosses holding on to their girlpire (btw shout out to sebastian, the only resident in the entire valley who carries you home for free)

neither panama nor leona attend the harvest festival, they send sebastian there by himself to test the food first lmao (if you poison it like the witch they’re harboring on their property requires you to do, sebastian is just like “i can’t serve this to Mistress Panama…”)

once again sebastian attacks mukumuku for her sake, this time not to make her a paintbrush but she told him to get her the best slippers and this was apparently the easiest way. sebastian gets fucking mauled btw

leona has hands down the best romance route in hmds. all her scenes are incredible but god the slow burn friends to lovers with your DVD player….

in her purple heart event she shows up at your house because she heard you have a DVD player, asks you to show her how it works, and then just leaves after she’s done playing with it

in her yellow heart event she has sebastian fetch van so she can buy a DVD player for herself but van’s like “i’m so sorry …. Pete… bought the last one….”

leona is so unable to stomach the idea of other people having things she doesn’t that she starts to cry and the only way to placate her is to tell her she can go to your house anytime she wants just so she can use your DVD player. that’s not a setup to a budding romance that’s her final heart event

it’s the most incredible romance arc in the world like girl you have infinite money you can just. buy a DVD player somewhere else?? “i want to watch DVDs at my house just like you!” leona you have three entire bedrooms

“rich girl love interest who has everything except love, win her heart by having genuine conversation with her”: done to death, tired, i don’t have time for that

“rich girl love interest who has everything except a fucking DVD player, win her heart by giving her expensive stuff and ‘relax tea’ and access to your DVD player”: audacious, intriguing, never been done before, innovative

if you deny her god-given right to access your DVD player she is like “Is that so……………Just let me be alone for a little bit.” incredible tragedy i understand. take as much time as you need to grieve darling

oh but her first heart event asks you to pick a side in an argument she’s having with panama and the correct answer is to say “sebastian is the one who’s wrong” (sebastian has said nothing wrong this whole time and yet both of them have just been yelling at him to shut up)

and her blue heart event is “help me find this heirloom necklace… boohoo…” and when you find it she’s like “perfect! now grandma won’t get mad at me. hmm, you seem pretty dependable…♡” augh she’s way too good at this…….!!! i’ll do anything for you!

when you propose she says “of course, i always dreamed of having a romance and a wedding♡” and says nothing abt how she feels about you <3

also if you marry her, once a week she goes to hang out at her ex love interest’s place for 6 hours straight and comes home saying “whew… i had so much fun that i must have lost track of time… i’ll hurry on home”

if you marry another girl she starts flirting with you like “I’m so envious of your wife, having such a fine husband… Pete.” (or whatever your name is)

i’ve become obsessed with her and romeo’s horrible trainwreck soap opera marriage since replaying cute in jp… it’s SO… i have so much to say about them that it should be its own post but i’ll just give the cliffnotes

shotgun wedding vibes. romeo is surprised by his own wedding. they’re childhood friends but he himself has never considered marrying her. her words to him at their wedding are “Make me happy♡” (command)

she understandably can’t stand his terrible table manners or his clothes or anything about him (except that she wants to watch him surf and have his child. but he instead walks in circles all day. coward) and he’s both really good at accidentally stepping on landmines and just ever so slightly majorly terrified of her after marriage (“but surely her angry outbursts are just her way of showing love hahahahaha” you’re going to die. she’s going to kill you). the only positive things they say about their marriage are extremely shallow. they can’t communicate with each other because romeo always says the Dumbest Shit obliviously and leona always responds by cutting him out of her life forever!!!!!! (for 5 seconds) while he has no idea what happened

they are both so melodramatic and they both just do nothing except make each other worse and run away from each other and push each other away but they can’t escape each other. neither of them ever has to grow or change if they marry each other because an elderly overworked man is sustaining both of their existences and neither of them can take care of themselves and i love them your honor

also romeo’s first crush as a kid was apparently her mom, and if leona falls for YOU she flirts by mentioning that sebastian says you look like the spitting image of her dead father. dear fucking god

they’re the epitome of “You're both just enabling each other's mental illnesses. You're both perfect for each other. Never change. Just never involve anybody else in what you've got going on.”

romeo really does feel like her stupid lackey. like the karen to her regina. they even had this dynamic in the games they played as kids… she was the Harvest Goddess and he was Servant A/Minion A (they might still be playing this game as adults…he calls her lady/mistress sometimes after marriage…)

btw leona’s best friend (wife) marivia is also just as… there’s an event where they just gossip about all the mineral town ppl and marivia says ann would win a gluttony contest and they both giggle

there’s also an event where marivia casually walks into Witch’s hut and just interviews her so she can write her into a novel. witch is left completely drained by this exchange. leona and marivia both are so chill about the horrible cruel villainess living in leona’s shed who wants the town poisoned and rewards you for killing animals and hurting yourself and is putting curses on everyone (and they’re right. she’s never done anything wrong in her life)

oh forgot to post this from my drafts but. i woke up from a dream this morning where the last part was siffrin asking for “a big ass bottle of estrogen from the devil” and, when they were in fact given a big ass bottle of estrogen, said that it was the only wish that worked for them

[moeblob]

Look, I just think it's VERY funny and on brand that I thought of an entire premise of colorful characters for half the cast and immediately drew the only one void of color.
