i think c!schlatt was horrible to c!quackity but i think there’s a tendency to like… make him more blatantly disgustingly awful in fanon than he is in canon? either to really drive home the fact that he was abusive, or to drag out extra angst points, or whatever other reason. but i think it’s worth noting that schlatt counts as abusive in canon without adding anything to it. he’s physically abusive onscreen, he’s emotionally abusive and manipulative in objectifying quackity and tying his worth to his physical appearance, completely inconsiderate of his wants/feelings, starts off overwhelmingly affectionate towards quackity and then sharply stops that after he’s got what he wants, and etc etc etc. there’s so much he does that’s fucked up and canon. but there’s also a lot of really funny things he does in canon and a lot of bits that make it harder to notice when he’s doing the fucked up things. like, you don’t see that he’s being a dick because you’re too busy laughing about it. and i think that probably adds to why fanon tends to make c!schlatt Worse to c!quackity? idk. i’m rambling now, but i was just thinking about it and wanted to jot thoughts down real quick
