Ok SO
Canonically his dad is a cop and there are a couple jokes about his parents not loving him, dudes dad straight up said "actually, do we love you?" Like sir damn anyways im taking that and running with it SO
Giving him a fucked up situation of him and his dad always butting heads and both of them escalating things constantly, and as he got older the ends to the arguments went from getting grounded or punished to getting kicked out or Duncan just leaving, probably escalating to his dad kicking him out semi regularly and eventually his mom or dad telling him to come back home to make a kinda fucked up cycle
And like i know they gave the convict kid a cop dad for the laugh like its not that deep at ALL
but like that sets up sucha fucked power dynamic and i want to use that
and we never find out what got Duncan sent to juvie for the first time, its said off screen while some characters are spilling embarrassing or dark secrets and in my fucked up world either he accumulated a couple charges while he was kicked out, indirectly the fault of his dad
or worse but more tempting
he got kicked out and his dad arrested him for trespassing
so like idk i just love the idea of a pyromaniac, vandal convict who has no respect for authority or mutual trust having the tragic backstory that his first time getting arrested was at the hands of his father
#daddy issues deluxe edition#duncan angst post complete#Duncan doesn't know how to de-escalate and needs to get the last word#he gets that from his dad btw#so running away is almost like winning#idk how Canadian cops are so im using american cop mentality#which is typically the “shoot first ask questions later” mentality#i think despite his Dad caring about him hed do hurtful shit and only regret it later#and i sincerely doubt they'd talk about it#so it just drives a deeper wedge and makes whats “normal” that more intense#:D#i love taking things too seriously i love overthinking behavior#duncan total drama#jester jabbers#headcannon#angst#total drama#idk man
