#the starling triplets

[all39clues]

snapshot/sneak peak of the 39 clues college au that's currently occupying my brain space:

"She was too busy processing. Who was Ned? Was he the other triplet? If so, were they aware that Ned, Ted, and Sinead sounded like names you would give an archetypal set of triplets in a children's book?"

The one in pink will be his sister?

Yep, Gos is the little sister of the triplets. She has a different age depending of the au, if is one where della is never in the moon, she is 2 years younger than the triplets but if the line of della is in the moon, she is 12 years younger than the triplets.

OC Origins Tag Game!

I want to know how you came up with your original character’s names and personalities. Are they based on people in your real life? Are they straight from your brain? Are they a mix of several people? I’ll go first!

Too Sweet Masterlist

Read the story here

Preface: My two main characters are based equally on myself. I’m bipolar so I often feel like there are two of me always fighting for dominance so it was easy take those parts and isolate them into two separate people. Maybe there’s something symbolic about the two parts of me falling in love but that’s just speculation on my part.

Cricket St. James

Cricket is about 50% Me. She’s the side of me that is pessimistic and deeply angry at the world.

Her first name is from a list of baby names I created when I was 14. I figured she should have a name that would make my inner child happy. I also think it sounds really nice and one of the people I create has to be named Cricket. I thought I’d save my actual future children the trouble of having such a strange name. I knew I wanted her surname to be Saint something because she’s such a malcontent and I liked the juxtaposition.

(I personally think her name fucks so hard and I hope yall agree)

March Starling

March is the other 50% of me. He’s the side of me that is optimistic and full of love to give.

His name is from a names list I made when I was 18 (yes I make a list of names every year. I have to because I’m delusional) March is my brain child and I wanted to give all of my characters names I would give my hypothetical children. March just sounded nice. His surname is Starling because it sounds like the name of someone who is successful and possibly has or comes from money.

(His brothers are called Reese and Dorian because I love the books in the Sarah J. Mass universe. The names also kind of fit well together in my brain. Also they’re triplets because I went through a phase where I was obsessed with these YouTubers called the Sturniolo triplets)

Harlow Knight

Harlow is based on my best friend because she’s a silly little goof. Some of the conversations in the book are real conversations we’ve had.

Her name is from a list I made when I was 20. It’s also the name of a character in a book series I was reading at the time so I was partial to it. Knight just sounded dope as fuck. Maybe as the story progresses she’ll be heroic, strong, or knightly in some way like a self for filling prophecy.

(Side note: she has red hair because people named Harlow are by law required to be ginger)

Jude Fox

Jude is based HEAVILY on my ex. This was 100% by accident and when I noticed I decided to lean into it and make them into damn near a carbon copy of him.

Their name is from a list I made this year while I’m 23. Since they’re the antagonist I wanted to name them Judas without literally naming them Judas. Fox is to symbolize how they’re a sneaky trickster. It also happens to be another name on my 2024 list.

(I chose the name before I created them into my ex-boyfriend I promise you I wasn’t initially trying to be so petty)

OPEN TAG!

[iamthepulta]

I decided to reread the 39 clues out of boredom and I saw a couple of your posts in the 39 clues tag and I agree with a lot of what you said. That series had such a hold on me when I was younger and it’s actually been fun to revisit it(even if it’s more chaotic than I remember lol). I also find myself being a lot more interested in the OG founders of the Cahills(Luke, Katherine, etc), because I feel like there’s so much potential for their stories xD

Sorry for taking forever to respond to this! I'm so glad you're loving them during your reread! And YES. The founders have had a death grip on me since forever! I still occasionally wonder about Thomas' must've-been-batshit-insane trip to Japan. Or Katherine in Egypt. And phew. Luke and Jane just live in my head rent free. There's so much to unpack with those two. So much to unpack.

I still think the Interim book between the original series and Vespers is one of my favorite books because we got those snippets of Olivia, Luke's, and Madeleine's characterization.

I'm suddenly wondering if the 39 Clues filled my initial hunger for fucked up family dynamics too, lol. Amy and Dan and the rest of the distant Cahills are fucked up family dynamics on lite mode: Amy and Dan? Tragic. Ian and Natalie? They're neat. The Holts? Supreme fuckery. The Starlings? God, I underappreciated the Starlings. Genius teenage triplets in a power-hungry world-domination clue hunt? That's SO good. I'm not even sure the limit of shit you can unpack with Alistair and Irina's Cold War dead-family baggage. But the OG Cahills? You can't top it. Four genius kids with unique talents who turn on each other after their parent(s) die in a tragic accident they think one of them set? My brain is on fire.

I would reread mine! I had pretty much the full set, but ended up giving my collection away to a friend's daughter. (Absolutely not hoping to make more 39C fans out of a new generation...)

can you maybe also do Mammon with nightmares Bug?

Authors Note: absolutely starling! I hope you're ready for more silly writing!

Mammon's Nightmares

TLDR: Mammon has trauma and needs a hug my friends but also he is the most crackhead brother and I love him

Mammon's nightmares are...

Honestly probably some of the sadder ones

While Lucifer dreams of dozens of different terrible things, Mammon's nightmares all concentrate in one place

And that's you and his brothers

Yeah he feels guilty about Lilith, he misses the little shit every day

And yeah, he also is scared of Michael and father but...

The thing that really digs at him is the idea of his brothers and you actually just...hating him

Like yeah they all say it

But only half of him believes it's true!

He and his brothers used to be so close...

He and Lucifer were practically inseparable, he and Levi were best gaming buds, he was always there to help Asmo, he practically helped raise Satan and the triplets...

And then there's you and oh my stars does he just adore you

From your personality to your looks to that starry gaze you hold just for him he just cannot get enough

Usually, he sleeps fine, you are always there to reassure him and he typically dreams of his marriage with you, Goldie, and his baby coins with little faces which by technicality could totally be nightmares

(note, mammon needs to stop thinking of money as people in his dreams, it's really starting to freak him out-)

But on the nights you aren't there well...

The two of you sleeping in the same bed happened long before you two were actually together

You were awoken on countless nights by the creek of the door and nervous footsteps before he found his way under the covers

You would ask him what was wrong and he would remain silent, tracing the lines of your hands with his fingers

After a while, he would ask if you thought he was stupid, worthless, or any number of other absolutely heartbreaking things that clearly came from a bad dream...

Eventually, he just couldn't seem to get a wink of sleep without you. Like he would be absolutely vibing with his hot girl racecar bed (its secret, its in his closet, shhh don't tell anyone)

And then he would fall asleep and have the most mind shattering nightmare

Like bro get ur ass in his racecar bed okay?

Like you're his emotional support human what are you doing slacking off

"oh I'm sleeping in my own bed"

Uh, no, he doesn't want to hear it.

If you're in your bed, so is he

Watch yourself

He's YOUR parasite

Smh

Still though nowadays in your relationship when he has a nightmare he is honestly a mix between heartbroken and absolutely OFFENDED

LIKE HOE

WHEN HE SAID

"I cant get a good nights sleep without ya, you're like...my home and you make me feel safe...or whatever..."

HE MEANT THAT SHIT

MOVE YOUR ASS HE IS GETTING IN BED

YOU TWO ARE CUDDLING NOW IT IS

M A N D A T O R Y

ARE YOU COMFY

wait no seriously are you comfy he has to know

Do you need a snack or some water-

Yeah he may have been the one with the nightmare, but you are his precious human and he needs to make sure you're okay

So the two of you cuddle and chat, cracking jokes, every so often you mention things like wanting to marry him just to watch him stutter and fumble

Both of you are so cozy too

you might be in your bed, you might be in the racecar pretending to run from the cops

you might be in the racecar actually running from the cops MAMMON WHY CAN YOU DRIVE YOUR BED

Regardless Mammon feels safe with you and you never manage to fail at making him feel better

Like its gotta be a skill at this point

"I love ya Mc" he would tiredly yawn in your ear, part of him wanting to just put his tongue in there out of spite

he doesn't though

You're having a moment

You whisper it back

You shove your tongue in his ear

he screams.

Fucker.

Romance💕

[raeloganthesonic06fangirl]

What happens if Louie was kidnapped by Quackerjack?

I dunno, there's really no reason for QuackerJack and Louie to have ever interacted in either canon

The only time in the 1991 continuity that I've seen QuackerJack be on the same page or scene as HDL is a cover of the 2011 crossover that's been wiped from canon ages ago, and comic cover events are very loose in canonicity anyway. 👀

For the 2017 Ducktales continuity, the only time Louie has any interaction with the Darkwing IP is either from indirectly being in the orbit of DT17!Drake or whatever DT17!Launchpad would be doing that's related to nostalgia towards in-universe DT17 spin in classic DWD, or the LGD episode where he sees Fictional!QuackerJack ((in relations to multiverse nonsense because this is just a in-universe character pulled from the alternate reality into the main reality that DT17 takes place in, like a... Dimensional Merge, for lack of a better term)) 👀

The triplet that has the most knowledge and experience with DWD adjacent stuff would be Dewey, as he's watched the program with Launchpad, has attended at least one event with Launchpad to meet Jim Starling, helped Launchpad make changes to the movie to better fit the tone, and has been in the hideout at least once and knows Drake Mallard is the new Darkwing.

So, I'd imagine if, for whatever reason, Louie ended up in QuackerJack's custody somehow, Louie would probably be able to sweet talk QuackerJack by offering "business advise" and drawing up ideas on the spot and making wild suggestions meant to be a distraction, but sounds almost too good to pass up on implementing into some of his projects, especially he's being told, by a kid, that kids are interested in whatever that is.

Then Dewey would have the best knowledge on how to play against QuackerJack's strengths and skills, and keep flitting between "Oh, this kid is interested in buying?" and "THIS ANNOYING BRAT WOULDN'T KNOW QUALITY TOYS IF IT BLEW UP IN HIS FACE.", while Huey would be the one to usher Louie out of the room.

QuackerJack has yet to figure out there's three of them because I'm pretty sure he's faceblind if he can't immediately tell the difference between Darkwing and Negaduck, and can't tell that the guy in the sweatervest with Darkwing's facial structure and frame, that disappeared before Darkwing showed up is in fact Darkwing.

I don't think he'd immediately figure out that Huey, Dewey and Louie are different kids until he sees at least two of them at the same time, because he's never been introduced to them before. So it's probably going to be a brief moment where he's like: "... Wait, didn't you have a hat a moment ago?" or "Did you change your hair or something?"

Actually, now that I think about it, the only two DWD adjacent villains Louie has directly interacted with was the DT17 versions of Taurus Bulba and Bushroot.

Wildlife-friendly gardens are one of my favorite things 🥺 I get so much joy out of all the animals coming through my own garden. What kind of critters do you get?

various insects like I showed today. I see spiders in the grasses and undergrowth too. This time of year, there's cabbage white butterflies, Red Admirals and Peacock butterflies too. As for birds; house and hedge sparrows (dunnocks), blue, great and long-tailed tits- the long-tailed tits are my favourite; they're more a winter bird here, and they stay around in small flocks together. At least three robins I counted for the RSPB's Winter bird-watch. There's also starlings; which usually come in gregarious flocks, stay for about 10 minutes, then fly off. Jackdaws, rooks and magpies for the corvids. Wood pigeons and collard doves- the latter of which are VERY flighty, and the former is a triplet that's been around for a few years. they're always fighting if they see one another- like on-sight. Sometimes there are hawks or (European) buzzards around. A few years back, a hawk caught a sparrow right by my feeder! I've also seen kestrels, martins, maybe a red kite- but it was soaring a thermal, so I'm unsure. During the night, there's often a tawny owl that perches on one of my trees or the back fence, and lately I've heard a barn owl screeching.

For mammals; we don't get a lot unfortunately. Field mice, harvest mice sometimes. I did have a mouse problem last year- indoors, due to my cockatiel being a messy eater. Thankfully it was a house-mouse, and not an endangered species. (One of the neighbours is an exterminator, and he humanly got rid of it after evaluating what kind of mouse it was.) I've seen a badger- once on the field houses are currently being developed on, and there ARE still rabbits on the development- I've just never seen them until about two hours ago. I've also heard roe deer in the near-by new forest. I'm surprised I've never seen or heard a fox. When I lived in the SE; I heard foxes all the time in spring and summer. But at night- I do enjoy watching the pipistrelle bats fly about.

Then there's a white '''indoor''' (so the owners claim) cat that keeps prowling around.

All in all, not the most bio-diverse place I've stayed at (that goes to my Aunt and Uncle's place, which is right by the Yorkshire Moors), but there's quite a fair few animals about- not to mention the three migratory birds; swifts, swallows and house martins that have just started their return.

Alchemical for Zoe (Group RP)

Harlow, Vanity, Pita, Draken, Grayson, Harmonie, Nixx, Remi, Trinity, Jona, and Lala.

ʜᴀʀʟღᴡ ᴍᴀʀꜱʜᴍᴇʟʟღ ᴘᴀʏɴᴇ (Vanity Kimono) Harlow came walking in with a confidence that radiates out to everyone around. She was focused and deliberate..she was a walking genius in the treatsies of 14th and 15th century, she was after all the most human of those in the room. Magic may be inherited but her parents were not mages, supernaturals yes… but not mages. At first they had thought the triplets were benign until at first Grayson had called up a legion of dead from a nearby graveyard during their second birthday.. Then it was time to bring someone in and test the children. Harlow was the last of the group to really come into her powers or so they thought but the reality is she just naturally had the ability to control hers from a young age and chose not to show others. She held in her hands a cloche and several bottles of herbs and one of a white powdered substance that had KNO3 on the bottle, AKA Potassium Nitrate, AKA Saltpetre. Balanced on top of the glass dome and held firmly under her chin were 2 very very old alchemical books.. She greeted everyone with a tight lipped smile, her blonde pony tails bouncing with each step she came to the still and placed everything on the ground, she knelt and began piecing everything together, a copper pipe here, a coil there, and then pushing the pieces into the cloche as it needed to be set, she carefully took up a vial that had the beautiful silver fluidic chemical with HG 80 written on a label in her handwriting.. She twisted the cap and with the glass dome open.. She poured the substance inside. She laid the books on the large altar that everyone was ready and standing on and opened them to pages she had previously marked and was running her manicured nail along the page.. Slowly letting her eyes run down the page.

She had the information and she looked to Jona “ This process usually takes days if not weeks but we are in a hurry… so I am going to need you to do that thing Trinity has told me you can do.. “ She actually snickered a little but tried to keep a straight face as she whispered in her mind.. No… not that thing.. But never said it aloud.. Instead she continued. “We will need to speed time up for Mercury to dry, I will keep it going on a low fire but you will have to find away to speed it.. On the third day when it has begun to dry, I need to have you halt time there, let me ring that to a powder and then another day.. Another grind and then one more day.. Another grind.. Then we will mix in the PN and herbs and again you will have to age that by at least 3 days.. For the crystals to form. She glanced around to the group, “I need you to focus on the Great God of Mercury, we wish that he blesses us with his speed and a favorable outcome. We will all need to lend our energies to Jona, this has to succeed. “ with that she slowly rose from her knees with a limbered grace that a human should never have. “Are we ready?” Her eyes moved from face to face… Pita..Trinity..Jona..Lala..Remi..Harmonie..Nyxx.. and even Draken and Grayson in the back.. Out of sight keeping physical watch from other preternaturals who may try to hunt them while such magic is being called into form.

нᴀʀᴍᴏɴιᴇ ꜱтᴀʀʟιɴɢ (Harmonie Starling) Sauntered in behind Vanity still feeling refreshed from their swim , she had found lilies along their way to the lab and had picked them , she found a vase and placed the freshly picked lilies into the vase and conjured some water to keep them fresh for this process, it was funny that it had been lilies as they are associated with the god Mercury. she placed it next to the stihl, in the middle of the circle. As she heard Harlow explain the process her eyebrows raised. This was one complicated process. She knew the group would have to focus and keep their focus. She went to the cabinets and tables looking for something to help them with focus. She found what she was looking for, dried jasmine and sage. She took the two together and bound them tightly with twine and would bring forth a small bowl to place it on as it would be burning - safety first afterall- she nodded a hello to Harlow and placed the bowl with the focus herbs next to her on the table. She then made her way to a rune on the circle. She then nodded to Nyxx her fingers to her lips then to her third eye, nodding her head to each of the friends and coven members present. She felt safe in this space with the people both in the circle and those standing back in protective mode. - Γєmi - ΓέigηHaΓϮ - (RemiRedd): Remi waited for the prompt from Harlow. He shut his eyes briefly and stood still for a moment. He knew that this attempt was full of risks. But he didn't bring up his concerns. Instead, he made contact with everyone on the altar, each in turn. This was a united front of course. His standing on the particular divination circle was not a mistake. He wanted to make sure everyone present would not be seen as malevolent to the spirits that would be trafficking themselves. While Jonah would push at time and manipulate the passage of it, there would be certain pitfalls and vulnerabilities. Messing with time was always a risk…. Especially when you had so many involved at once. To safeguard that, he began a meditation of peace and calm. Their bodies were protected and safeguarded from without by Draken and Grayson in the interim. But from within the circles, Remi would draw in the protection of ethereal benevolent gods and spirits. Lalani provided a song in her native Elvish tongue and hummed it softly…. It was barely audible. It was designed to lull everyone into an undisturbed, elongated trance- Days would be passing in moments if Jona could manage it. They would be in that trance easier and because of how she hummed her tune. It was psalm-like. нᴀʀᴍᴏɴιᴇ ꜱтᴀʀʟιɴɢ (Harmonie Starling): Nyxx acknowledged the hellos from Harlow , Harmonie, and the others she was always cautious. She stood back from the circle but was there out of support of being helpful to the new town they were calling home. She went around silently blessing the space, sewing intentions for good fortune and success. She had been told of the importance of this process and knew it had the potential to be disastrous if not done right. She had faith in her coven though. Once she was done blessing the space she too walked to a marked rune stone and stood to add to the strength of the circle spelling this alchemical recipe to do its will

ʜᴀʀʟღᴡ ᴍᴀʀꜱʜᴍᴇʟʟღ ᴘᴀʏɴᴇ (Vanity Kimono) She watched Nyxx make her way around, acknowledging her with a nod that bounced those very out of place pony tails of blonde, Harlow was tiny in height.. And really was in contrast to the power she held… she had been a high priestess since she was 15, but within the Coven of Oak and Ashes she was Vanity’s 2nd, only because Van had more pull politically being that she was a Fae. there were things that Van looked to Harlow for, and alchemical magic was one. The whole coven was a mix of creatures and people that were the outcasts.. Loners.. Orphans.. And they all had their strengths and weaknesses.. And we were honest with each while utilizing it for the best outcomes. Such as the Elf and the strength of her melody, Remi and his calming vibes.. Her beloved brothers at the entrance, one ready to bark and bite anyone trying them.. And Grayson is ready to call the very souls from Pitas jars to keep us safe. Also Vanity was there pulling from the elemental power pool.. Her mind was in a zone where she was connected to the forests of the earth, the moss and very rock that kept us standing.. But also the energy of the crystals buried deep.. Drawing from their nature created batteries..all the while amplifying it with the help of water. Harmony not only was adding to the swirling circle around us.. But there were 2 other little distinct souls..for the briefest moment Harlow could feel them… the twins.. Lastly there was Trinity pouring herself into Jona.. she was the focus to keep it contained, she had side stepped into his mind and was guiding him in a dream..

With this all happening Jona began his difficult task.. The mercury settled on the silver base of the cloche actually began to move around, vibrating till it made little circles with drops popping up and then bouncing back down but as we watched in real time the substance was getting thicker.. Drying out.. And we stood in the circle all of us.. But felt nothing of the time manipulation.. You wouldn’t even know it was happening had you been human.. But there it was… minute.. Hour.. Whizzing by, Jona looked at Harlow and said that it was time.. She raised her palms, bringing them together so that her thumbs and first fingers connected and with that began to create a bubble around the glass that when opened would protect us all.. But her hands could go into without harm.. She reached down and grabbed the mortar and pestle.. She tipped the container till it opened and with a small brush began to sweep the almost fully hardened mercury into the quartz bowl.. And quickly made work of turning it to dust..

Then returning it but still in the mortar to its place and shutting the glass dome once again.. To go the next round. Harlow let out a breath as the bubble dissipated and Jona started again.

нᴀʀᴍᴏɴιᴇ ꜱтᴀʀʟιɴɢ (Harmonie Starling) Smiles and inhales deeply as she settles herself and then she lowered herself into a sitting posting , Indian style, she untied her hair and let it fall , beign as natural as she could be, pulling water to her , soothing and strengthening her.. she felt a whoosh of air fall over her letting her know she was on the right path, she opened her eyes and looked from one to the other and then stopped at Harlow letting her know without words that she was centered and focused

Nyxx also sat , indian style , she put her palms upward in the way most people meditate she began humming softly in a rhythmic , native melody, calling upon the ancestors to watch over them and keep them and their patrons safe .. " aye eiii, hey yo…" about at the same volume as La La, the two sounds dancing in a harmony that let the the hollows of the lofted ceiling echo back, both eerie and beautiful , she opened her eyes and looked to remi as it helped calm and center her, she inhaled once more, closing her eyes and continuing her chant

ʜᴀʀʟღᴡ ᴍᴀʀꜱʜᴍᴇʟʟღ ᴘᴀʏɴᴇ (Vanity Kimono) Again Jona nodded to Harlow and she weaved her magic bringing bubble into existence, this time it was easier.. The substance was dryer and still partially crumbled and so she pushed the pestle in over and over rolling the round end around the circumference of the bowl.. Shutting the glass again and nodding back to Jona. They had been together a long time as the representatives as the God and Goddess within the circle.. And now even as we shift roles dependent on needs, he and Harlow had an unspoken bond bordering clairaudience.. The man shifted time once more.. Trinity feeling his strain began to pull him into reign in his mind in the most soothing way. Harmonie was fueling and now even with the other triplets outside the room.. Grayson was lending his focus.. It was more evident now like shadows moving about but instead of being fearsome they were helping. Pita was also involved now.. With demonic precision he was releasing more and more energy using quintessence force from his dark energy. It was limitless and much needed as the ceremony proceeded. The coven of Oak and Ash were close.. Even Frankie who was recent.. They had bonds deeper than most people understood.. Not all were blood.. But they were Chosen and all types. For the third time Jona locked eyes with Harlow and she again crushed the mercury to the final power.. 3 times was the number so they had effectively killed the Mercury which was drying it out. Further they sublimed it into power and now.. and she began adding the saltpetre to create , cayenne to speed and heighten power, and the pieces of cinnabar that the mercury was sourced from.. Magic was alive in the crystal and it his home back.. With a balance.. She shut the cloche back and allowed Jona to finish the process..and abruptly there were small red crystals of corrosive sublimate formed. There was an audible breath released from many in the room.. Jona began to reel himself back in.. and everyone began to unwind the magic they were pumping into it..

нᴀʀᴍᴏɴιᴇ ꜱтᴀʀʟιɴɢ (Harmonie Starling) Opened her eyes as she heard lala and nyxx both stop singing instantly , she heard them gasp and then she said to them both " dont breathe the powder, it is toxic" just in case they were unaware of the element mercury being as deadly as it is , she looked to remi who nodded to lala, and she came over to him and he touched her shoulder and centered her then she began her song again but then started walking around the circle, bringing energy into the process… Nyxx looked to Harmonie and nodded and then she shifted to her knees and let her toes draw in the cool stones grounding her calling earth she suddenly felt the rush of air and the smell of fresh cut grass… the sound of the crushing of the pestle in the mortar soothing …

ʜᴀʀʟღᴡ ᴍᴀʀꜱʜᴍᴇʟʟღ ᴘᴀʏɴᴇ (Vanity Kimono) Harlow took a step back on her violet heel, the red crystals growing till they were fully visible..the magic making them larger than they usually would be. Slowly the magic began to clear in the room.. As each super natural began to shut it fully down and then.. It was empty. The space that once was filled to the brim did not feel vast and silent. Harlow picked up her beloved antique books and placed them on the library shelves.. Jona went to the Cloche and, taking a bottle, he carefully placed the crystals inside for Zoe. Lala and Remi had dispersed.. Trinity walked off and Jona followed, having a few words with her to catch up. Pita had called up shadows.. Wrapping his arms around Van’s waist and they were gone.. This often annoyed her that he would pluck her out of places and deposit her elsewhere but in this case.. She was consenting. Grayson and Draken were waiting.. To escort Harlow to the hunting grounds.. She would need to lay along the rocky shore and let the moss and earth balance her out from this all.. Thankfully it was done.. But she did want a few moments to speak with Harmonie about something she felt earlier in the night. нᴀʀᴍᴏɴιᴇ ꜱтᴀʀʟιɴɢ (Harmonie Starling) Lifted her body up into a standing position nodding to everyone as they left in acknowledgment of their powers and strengths all being dispersed. She stood up , she looked at Harlow and raised a brow, she asked her " care to go for a swim?" she felt she needed the ocean again. She needed to bathe in the waning moonlight, before the new moon took the rays of the moon from the world, Nyxx had helped Harmonie up and she kissed each cheek then her forehead and she walked out of the lab and then Harmonie blinked once more , a flash of a vision coming across her mind that made her gasp and fall into the nearby seat and shake her head trying to catch her breath mes

She didn’t dramatically slam her laptop closed, because what if she broke it?, but she got about as close to it as she dared.

Or: Amy makes two friends she doesn't want, and meets the third Starling triplet.

[inamindfarfaraway]

Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, May and June all have brown eyes of the same or close shades, since the triplets are identical, Webby can perfectly disguise herself as one of them without contact lenses and May and June are clones of her, and this way their eye colours aren’t biased to any one of their colour schemes.

Donald’s are earthy brown and Della’s are sky blue, reflecting that he’s more grounded, practical and negative and she’s the more optimistic, excitable one and the pilot. But also, they’re each other’s theme colours like yin and yang.

Scrooge has brown eyes, hence Webby’s, that are deep, warm, firm and proud and have seen the most experience of anyone who’s ever lived. Just one look into them can make you feel utterly reassured and inspired; yet when you put the rest of Scrooge aside they’re easy to imagine in the face of a plain, scruffily dressed poor boy who disappears into the crowd.

Beakley’s are a serious brown. This helps give her and her granddaughter a false sense of biological resemblance.

Launchpad’s are brown like his jacket, or a cup of hot chocolate on a bad day, or - OH NO THE GROUND -

Lena has grey eyes, like a stormcloud… or faint shadow. I headcanon that when she was born out of Magica’s shadow, her colour palette was purely monochrome as an extension of her origins (including her sweater, which is two shades of grey) and she chose her blue shirt and dyed her feathers herself in an early assertion of her individuality. Magica gave her white, grey and black, but blue like her magic and pink like her girlfriend were all Lena’s decisions. They’ve always been her favourite colours. She thinks her super form having blue eyes is really cool and poetic.

Violet has blue eyes, but a dark shade that looks almost purple in certain lighting.

Daisy has very bright, distinctive turquoise eyes that she coordinates her outfits and makeup to match and bring out.

FLINTHEART GLOMGOLD has intense green eyes, symbolic of his all-consuming greed. He’s always ‘seeing green’, if you will.

Mark Beaks has pale blue eyes that can go from innocent, cheerful and charming to cold and hard as ice in an instant. BOYD’s are much darker, as seen above.

Gyro’s are light green. The rarer colour reflects his eccentricity and drive to create new, robotic life and help it grow.

Gladstone’s are the precise green of that wad of American paper money on the the ground that he just happens to have stumbled across, while Fethry’s are deep blueish teal like the ocean he so loves.

Drake’s are blue, matching Jim Starling’s before him, both providing a nice contrast with the Darkwing Duck colours. But as with Mark and BOYD, you could never confuse these pairs. They’re not actually that different in shade, they just have such a different look to them. And yes, this does mean that the Mallard-McCrash family has three different eye colours between them - the brown eyes common in the McDuck-Duck family show their innate unity and prominent theme of inherited traits, but the diversity of the found family’s eyes highlights that they came together from totally different origins.

Fenton’s are very dark brown. He thinks they’re boring and nondescript, while Gandra’s sparkling blue ones are so alluring. She, on the other hand, sees in them his unshakeable resolve, earnest moral conviction and the peaceful stability he offers on a bedrock of emotional strength. His mother’s are likewise almost black, but much more hardened and intimidating.

Quackfaster’s are blue, incredibly sharp and piercing with an unhinged glint that shines menacingly even from within the Achives’ deepest shadows. There are supernatural beings with literal glowing eyes who have saner, less unsettling gazes than her. Don’t fuck with any of the Duck family, that goes without saying, but for the love of all that is good, don’t fuck around in their library.

Moonlanders have different eye colours to Earthlings: gold is equivalent to brown, red to blue and purple to green, contrasting with their green or blue skin. Lunaris’s are gold, bright, sharp, charismatic and calculating. Penumbra’s are red, making her look all the more dangerous and aggressive, but also sneakily making her and Della a low-key red/blue pair in this small way.

So, I was thinking about something. In DuckTales, there are exactly four characters in the show with canonically colored irises (not counting power-ups): Boyd and Gandra both have blue eyes, and Goldie and Gosalyn both have green eyes.

So, that got me wondering: What color eyes would the other DuckTales characters have? For simplicity’s sake, I’m limiting it to natural eye colors (brown, blue, etc.)

And once again, you have made me very happy with your review, take^^!

I'm so glad you enjoyed the story so much. I also started watching Darkwing Duck thanks to the Geronimo saga, and I don't regret it.

Reading your opinion of the chapters that impacted you the most, I must admit that my favorite chapters are 29 (because of the conversation that Goofy has with Gosalyn to calm her down, and how she reconciled with Negaduck), and 39, when Lyn and Christine say goodbye to Gosalyn and the others, and the redhead and Max promise Timothy that he will never be alone again.

Although I know that many may not have liked Ratigan's ending, I think it was correct. The rat suffered great karma by losing his memory and ending up with his brain damaged, this being the same danger he exposed Gosalyn to. Negaduck just finished the job, and although he didn't make the rat suffer as much, he enjoyed it.

Oh, the tragedy of Nega-Scrooge. Even if he had achieved revenge on him, he would not have been satisfied. Killing Negaduck would not bring back his nephews.

I admit that for a moment I thought about writing that Scrooge told his counterpart the truth that Negaduck confessed to him... but that wouldn't have changed anything. Even if he knew that Negaduck didn't kill the triplets and Webby, the old mobster would know that it was still his fault for bringing the Mallard to NegaDuckburg and betraying him... Nothing would have given Nega-Scrooge any comfort.

I wanted to place the conversation between Darkwing and Darkwarrior at any cost, even if that made me write more chapters. Yes, DW is now from a different timeline than the dictator's altered universe, but that doesn't take away from Darkwarrior's idea that the hero is going to fall into despair just like him if anything happens to Gosalyn. And Darkwing wants to prove otherwise.

Now, with the fic finished, I can relax a bit and focus on my tests... although I admit that many scenarios of Timothy's new life as Goof-Mallard, and his school life come to mind. With the last chapter, I left several things unfinished on purpose.

I want to further explore Timothy's teacher, Rosy Starling, and further explain her connection with... "her."

I'd like to do a sequel later (not as long as Unstoppable), but I want to write "Beauty and the Beast" first. It's my new writing goal... but first I have to focus my tests TvT

And again, thanks for the review, take, and I'm glad you enjoyed this project^^!

Hi @thezoe611​ Now that you completed your excellent fic Unstoppable (based on “Geronimo Saga” by @rebellingstagnationblog​​) I need to write once again a review​ about it.

(Sorry for any misspelling^^’)

SPOILER ALERT, IF SOMEONE DOESN’T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE STORY AND ITS LAST CHAPTERS 

Wow. What an adventure. Really, I didn’t expect it to be such a suspenseful, tear-jerking and emotional story from beginning to end. You broke my heart so many times that I lost count. But I don’t regret it, because I enjoyed reading this amazing fic. Also, thanks to Geronimo Saga and Unstoppable, I finally watched for the first time all the episodes (not just some of them) of Darkwing Duck (and read for the first time the comics) last year. I understand much better why it’s so popular even now.

I wrote in my first review my feelings until chapter 24 (all the pain that I suffered until that chapter). After that chapter, it was (once again) an emotional roller coaster. First of all, the plot-twists and revelations. Many of them. The biggest would be the truth about Ratigan and Gosalyn’s grandfather, of course. That chapter, auch. The pain was so big. I didn’t expect the truth to be so tragic (And poor Gosalyn, watching all those memories. The description of her emotions when she found out how her parents died was so sad😭).

Also, I’ve cried a lot with many moments of the new chapters that touched my heart🥺. If I had to choose a few moments to describe, will be: 

Chapter 29: Gosalyn talking with Goofy (I cried reading that moment between those two) and later with Negaduck (I loved it. Especially after all the pain they’ve suffered in the fic). Gosalyn really needed moments like those after everything that happened to her.

Chapter 34: Once again, the plot-twist about Thaddeus Waddlemeyer. All the pain that caused his actions and mistakes, and Gosalyn watching all of them was so painful.

Chapter 36: the beginning with Tim’s flashback. I-I cannot express how I felt reading those memories without exploding because of that horrible Mortimer! I hate him! I hate him so much!

Chapter 39: the last scene. Seriously, I felt so many feelings reading the thoughts and emotions of Timothy (Poor kid 🥺😭), then Gosalyn and Max talking to him, and then… then that last moment of the three together, as a new family. 

“…The warmth of a family…”

I was so, so happy reading that scene that I couldn’t stop crying for minutes.

There are more moments, of course. But if I wrote all of them, I wouldn’t know when to stop writing.

The end of Ratigan that you showed… Wow.  Negaduck feelings and thoughts described very well that moment. I couldn’t enjoy that villain’s end like I expected because of the situation in his last moments.   

Nega-Scrooge’s story is a conflict of emotions to me as a reader. He did horrible things to Gosalyn just to take revenge on Negaduck. However, his pain for his loss was so real. (And it’s more tragic with the revelation that Negaduck spoke to Scrooge). I felt sad with the last scene of him talking with Tim.

The discussion between Darkwing and Darkwarrior (another big surprise in the last chapter!) was very interesting (I read it many times)

In addition, I loved the moments of information, revelations and connections (I really like those moments in your fics, Zoe^^). Chapter 39 resolved so many mysteries of the story (even some that I almost forgot^^’) that I enjoyed it.

Once again, I loved how you introduced new Original Characters (It was a surprise to discover new OCs even in the last chapter). Also, I don’t forget all the new mysteries that you showed in the end. They have the potential for new stories.

Thank you for sharing this incredible story of Darkwing Duck, Zoe. I really enjoyed reading it.

I’m looking forward to reading “The Beauty and the Beast"  (don’t worry. Take your time. And good luck with your tests).

Sandra: There's my girls! How was your trip? Tatiana: They all did a wonderful job. Didn't you, girls? Triplets: Yes!

Tatiana: Sandra, what are you doing out and about at this hour? I thought you were... busy tonight. [Lowers voice] Did Landgraab propose?

Sandra: Well Mother, [clears throat] No. Something came up. Something interesting is going on around here, and I thought you'd like to hear about it. Tatiana: ...Oh?

Tatiana: Girls, please head to Grandma's room to rest. You'll need to regain your vampiric energy! Tatiana gave each one of the triplets a loving hug and kiss, and beamed at them as she watched them dash up the stairs.

Tatiana: Alright, Sandra, what is this urgent information you have for me?
