#In Webby we trust

[koi019]

With a bare minimum of info and questionable writing, limited screen writing and plentiful TV tropes experience, I shall attempt to predict the plot of npmd

Includes a very vague reference to yellow jacket, no details in case of spoilers 💫

Brenda and pals awaken a vengeful spirit after Brenda feels slighted by a Nerd. Is the slight real, probably not but it's hs and perception is everything. (Maybe Axe Man happened and Brenda tries to intervene into Steph and Pete's budding relationship but Pete shuts her down. Maybe a Nerd beat her for valedictorian. Maybe she was quoting something she heard on insta as fact and got "um, actually'd." Could be anything)

Nerds start getting attacked, maybe minor unexplained harassment before being killed. Books knocked out of hands by invisible forces, tripped, lockers closing, etc. The spirit feeds on fear, and anger, grows stronger. Steph is a kinda Alt Bad Girl and Grace Chastity sees herself as cool (if you watched s4 of The Circle, you'll know who I'm thinking of. Rachel, iirc?) she somehow skates until they both start interfering. It's the right thing to do.

But where GC is an active busy body, Steph is an information gatherer - unless there's immediate danger (re: nmt s2 ep4). Calling Joey's movie theater employee as an early victim, and possibly the reason Steph and GC team up.

Lord in Black prediction: Blinky. Manipulation of perception and violence for his own luls is very much his speed, especially in bottle environments like high school communities.

I could see a case for Wiggly, but he just had his full musical and his thing is more wide spread chaos for an actual ultimate goal from what we saw there. Not saying they can't have layers, we're all ogres in the end, but working on evidence to date.

If Mariah wasn't already playing Steph, I'd swing for sharpshooter Alice for the save cause Deb gets dragged in somehow but alas.

Conclusion... will this be the first musical with unambiguous protagonist survival? For the love of Webby, please starkid, we are fragile. General John MacNamara and his peeps successfully stop paranormal activity, maybe his husband is a hs teacher 😯 or a guidance counselor. Brenda gets called to the guidance counselor office a bit towards the end cause John didn't marry no fool.

Will GC also have a touch of the gift and be able to end this? Will Pete? Maybe Steph?! We'll find out in February 2023!

We all know that Webby and Dewey are the best friends. But I love more the relationship between Webby and Louie. They both really feel like they're sister and brother.

During the adventure in Atlantis, Louie took Webby under his wing. Ok, he wanted to make Webby lie to her grandma, but still.

You got this.

I just love how they get on each other throats.

But they totally love and support each other.

Is so awesome that the two biggest Webby and Louie episodes had this little parallelism.

And talking about the The Lost Harp of Mervana!, that has my favorite moment between Webby and Louie.

Webby lost her hope, she was so disappointed about learning how her grandma lied to her regularly. Here comes Louie, no con, no scheming, just the words his sister told him. Louie may not be the best at trusting, but he trust Webby.

To me, those two are totally brother and sister. That's their bond. Of course, Huey and Dewey are her brothers too. She's the fourth triplet, by all means.

But what made me believe that Louie and Webby are special, is how they changed thanks to the other.

Louie wanted to tell the truth, for her.

Webby learned to lie, from him.

I just love this brother and sister so much.

Off My Chest

Rant about Hybe under the cut. I give you my word I will try to post a majority of positive content, because the world (and my mental health) doesn't need more negativity, but sometimes you just gotta vent.

Folks, if you've known me for a hot second, you've realized I am a Jimin-biased Jikooker... but I am OT7, and I sincerely love and support BTS.

I believe Jimin is a grown man who can advocate for himself and I believe Jungkook absolutely supports and adores him, whatever their relationship status is.

I always try to accentuate the positive and avoid online drama and negativity as much as possible, but I need to get this off my chest.

I will never be gas-lit into believing that the way Jimin was treated in solo era was fair, or equitable, or even made any kind of business-sense. I've genuinely tried to entertain other people's points of view and listen to people who claim to have industry expertise, but...

I will never forget his mail being tampered with four times, his leaked insurance information, denial of more music videos, overlapped solo release, only 9 days of promotion, split title tracks, no radio or play-listing, no bio for his Spotify for months, no restock of his single CD for months, hundreds of thousands of frozen and deleted sales, millions of culled streams, shady articles in WeVerse and Billboard, insulting dialogue in In the Seom, failure to submit to RIAA certification for months, only a paywall documentary on WeVerse, zero official acknowledgement of his Hot 100 #1, 1 billion streams on Spotify, or wins for The Fact, MAMA, and two Webbys, plus broken in-ears, anemic little balloons and a sad background tarp as decorations for his fan events… and the company telling him how doing more would just be impossible.

I compare all that to the push that other members and other groups got, and I know it just isn't true. It wasn't impossible.

Hell, Jeon Jungkook put in more effort to promote Jimin’s work and showed more respect for Jimin as an artist during his at-home lives than that whole company did, which honestly makes no sense from a profit standpoint.

I will never forget it, and I will not entertain arguments that say I’m a solo or an anti or jealous about it. I have eyes.

I am not out to shade any other members nor put forth any conspiracy theories. I simply want all our boys to get everything they justly deserve.

And yes, other members have suffered mishaps and neglect, but nothing of this scale, this consistently. It baffles me, I cannot understand it, and I'm done trying. Something strange was going on behind the scenes and we may never be privy to the details.

In trying to put this awful feeling behind me, I will say I am elated that Jikook are serving together and can support each other. I am glad there will be a Jikook travel show. I'm continually impressed with all of Jimin's success (in the military and professionally) despite all odds. I will always love and support all of BTS with my full heart.

And I sincerely hope the company has been taking notes and course-corrects for PJM2, even if it rubs some higher ups the wrong way if they had a different vision. Considering Jimin’s unique talents and his amazing star power—even his ability to bring Paris and New York to a screaming standstill just for the opportunity to see him exit a car—I would hope the company will “do their best to promote all labels and artists without discrimination” going forward.

But what happened truly sucked, and I needed to get that off my chest. I am not interested in further discussion or debate. I am now going to do my best to shift my focus and energy on to the things I want to manifest, instead of the things that enrage me.

So let me end on a positive and hopeful note: I put all my trust in Jimin, who signed a new contract with Hybe and who unfailingly adores all his members. There can be no love without trust. I will always do my best to trust BTS.

But I'm watching carefully. For Jimin and all our boys.

Love, Roo

[gotta-get-back-to-hatchetfield]

Here's what you missed on Hatchetfield...

Okay so Nerdy Prudes Must Die is happening in a month's time and I'm aware that lots of people who enjoyed guy who didn't like musicals and black friday might not have had time to watch nightmare time. While Nick has said this musical will be fully stand alone and no knowledge of nightmare time is required, nonetheless some of you might be curious about what we've learned that might come up

Presenting a tldr lore drop for nightmare time:

1) Wiggly has brothers (aka the Lords in Black)

You remember Wiggly from black friday? That ugly green little fucker? Well turns out he has brothers. They call themselves the Lords in black because they're pretentious little fucks and they all have different 'powers'.

Itemised list

Pokey (pokotho) - mind control type stuff, likes to make hiveminds

Wiggly (Wiggog Y'wrath) - idk you saw black friday whatever the fuck goes on there

Blinky (blinklotep) - massive eye, likes watching things

Tinky (T'noy karaxis) - fucks with time

Nibbly (nibblenephem) - massive mouth, eats shit

You've actually met Pokey before - remember the blue shit from guy who didn't like musicals? That's the same blue shit leaking out of the cracks in pokey's face in the picture above.

They also have a sister called Webby that I believe Hannah references in Black Friday. We don't know much about her but thus far she seems like a good guy

2) Grace Chasity is a nerdy prude

Remember the girl Bill is trying to set Alice up in guy who didn't like musicals because 'at least she's nice to him in church'?

Well turns out Alice was right. Grace Chasity is a nerdy prude. And also coincidentally one of the main characters of Nerdy Prudes Must Die (to be played by Angela Giarratana).

We meet her in nightmare time 2 (episode 2 part 2) which takes place at a religious camp designed to educate people about the perils of pre marital sex.

Grace Chasity is, well she's many things, but she is very much the stereotype of an American evangelical Christian. She even showers with a swimming costume on so as not to tempt herself into sin.

Despite all this, however, she is a devious motherfucker who will absolutely fuck you up

3) You remember Ted from guy who didn't like musicals...

Well not only are he and the homeless guy the same person (time travel, its a whole thing, blame the yellow guy from the Lords in black photo)

But also we learn that his surname is Spankoffski (because of course it is) and he has a 'nerdy little brother' called Pete Spankoffski who will be one of the leads in nerdy prudes. In nightmare time he's played by Nick Lang but in nerdy prudes he'll be played by Joey Richter

We meet Pete in nightmare time 2 (episode 2 part 2) but we've actually met him before in guy who didn't like musicals. You remember hot chocolate boy? The one who had very low blood sugar?

Yup you guessed it that is one Peter Spankoffski

(If you've been super out of the loop and are wondering why he was recast and for that matter where the heck is Robert anyway just trust that that is a whole thing im not going to get into and it's for the best he's gone)

4) Meet the Lauters

Two more characters who have been announced for NPMD who we met in nightmare time 2 are Stephanie Lauter (Mariah Rose Faith) and her father Solomon Lauter (Corey Dorris)

Steph is actually pretty nice and chill on the inside but definitely has a reputation for being a bit of a party animal/wild child.

This isn't helped by her father who is the mayor of hatchetfield and from what little we see of him will always put his career before his daughter.

Steph and Pete hook up in nightmare time so look out for a possible romance between these two

5) What the fuck is a Holloduke?

You may have seen the word 'holloduke' batted a lot around this fandom lately which refers to the ship of two characters that we've been introduced to through nightmare time.

While it's unclear if either of them will appear in nerdy prudes, given that both Kim and Curt are in the cast and they go a long way out of their way in nightmare time to show Kim's character getting a job at Hatchetfield High in set up for *something* a lot of people think there's a good chance she at least will be appearing.

The Hollo of these characters is called Miss Holloway although at the end of nightmare time she ends up ret conning herself and is forced to assume a new identity as Miss Holiday so if we meet her in nerdy prudes that will likely be her name. She is a witch who has a deep love for all things 80s. We don't know a huge amount about her but that might be because she's cursed(?) so that anything she reveals about her backstory will be instantly wiped from the mind of the listener.

Curts character is an ordinary social worker called Duke who among other things works with Hannah and Lex when they're having troubles with their mum. He's in love with Miss Holloway/Holiday, and it's reciprocated, but due to the curse(?) et al things keep not quite working out for them.

They're both absolutely wonderful people who deserve the world and are absolute OTP fodder

6) The Gift

We don't know a huge amount about this yet but we do know that some people in Hatchetfield, notably including Hannah from black friday have something called 'the gift' which gives them some loose powers

Most people grow out of the gift as they go through puberty, for instance Lex also used to have it, but they may be able to use it in some scenarios (such as manifesting a firearm from the black and white as Lex does in Black Friday)

People with the gift were historically persecuted in Hatchetfield by a group of people called 'the hatchet men' who may or may not have turned them into trees(?)

7) The Black Book

There is a book of spells called the black book which Miss Holloway/Holiday uses to do her magic

Grace Chasity headcanon rambles!

Some silly Grace hcs for @nighthaterfrfr!! I tried to mostly avoid any of mine that you mentioned something similar to in yours bc we had a good deal of overlap! :D

(Just to preface, one of my biggest headcanons is that Grace is autistic so there’s a good chance that some of these may be influenced by that! I did try to pick ones that are more applicable to canon though! [But if anyone wants any of those, I have about a million :3])

When Grace was a young child in elementary school (or Sunday school), she very innocently kissed Alice Woodward and felt something™. (She entirely represses this memory for YEARS.)

^ During her eventual sexuality crisis, despite not having talked to Alice for years outside of polite conversation if they ran into one another, Grace reaches out to her for support/to ask questions because she was the only out queer person that Grace knew and trusted enough not to out her. (Alice big sister mode activated.) 

^ (They’re so silly, they’ve literally never interacted outside of a throwaway line about them knowing and possibly disliking each other but to me they're friends who fell apart and eventually find each other again when they're both more grown as people.)

^ Also, ignore me indulging my other biggest hc which is that Grace is a lesbian.

Grace took piano lessons as a child and is actually quite good because she wanted to be the pianist for her church’s masses when she got older! She stopped taking lessons in high school, but she keeps up with playing in her free time to maintain the skill and occasionally help out with music at her church.

^ Richie constantly tries to convince her to learn anime openings and music from games that he plays for him (he begged her to learn Megalovania for weeks until she finally gave in).

She has never celebrated Halloween because her parents think it’s satanic so Ruth and Richie (who definitely still go trick-or-treating in high school) make a point to bring her some of their candy on the following school day.

^ She definitely doesn’t cry about this gesture later when she goes home!!

She is an absolute monster while playing board games, like she gets REALLY aggressive about them.

^ (definitely influenced by Angela's chaos on smosh games, especially the “be a little more gentle!! >:(” clip)

She can’t go to sleep (intentionally) without getting a kiss goodnight. At home, her parents kiss her on the forehead before bed and if she’s at camp, she has to get a kiss on the head from Girl Jeri if she wants to sleep well.

^ It disrupts her routine which makes it harder for her to wind down!!

^ I like to think that before the events of Abstinence Camp, she thought of Boy Jerry and Girl Jeri as older sibling figures.

She has never been to a sleepover because she’s never had good enough friends to be invited to one :(

^ The nerds + Steph very quickly remedy this!!

^ (quick ramble related to the last hc) During the first group sleepover, Steph wakes up in the middle of the night to get a drink, realizes Grace is still up, and after Grace sheepishly admits her dilemma following Steph’s prompting for an explanation, Steph very casually plants a kiss on her forehead and then goes back to sleep. Grace’s face is beet red after this and now she can’t sleep for an entirely different reason.

^ They're in love to me!!!

LIB related

(Based almost entirely on Blinky’s line about watching Grace and the nightmare about Max/Richie that implies she has the gift.) 

^ Grace has been connected to the Lords in Black since long before we see her, Steph, and Pete summon them in NPMD.

^ Much like Lex was friends with Webby as a child and forgot, Grace was friends with the LIB when she was young but grew out of it.

^ (I have a whole little overanalysis/hc set of things for this hc if anyone wants to hear :3)

After she starts using the Black Book, her appearance starts to very slightly change so that she always looks just a tiny bit off.

^ Her teeth are just a touch too sharp, her ears have the slightest point to them, and her eyes almost seem to shift in colour (depending on which LIB is influencing her).

^ But hey, it must just be a trick of the light!! She's so normal!! Dw about it!!!

She will occasionally feel the sudden compulsion to bite others (Nibbly is feeling silly!!)

^ She does not act on this… most of the time :3

One more silly one to end on

She once owned a Tamagotchi and became so deeply stressed over the state of this virtual creature that she made herself sick from anxiety. 

^ Karen and Mark confiscated the toy very shortly after this.

Anyway ramble's over now but my 45 page google doc of Grace hcs continues to grow every day bc I am fixated hard on this silly little show :3

edit: had to add the '^' thing because the bullets didn't indent properly for some reason!! every one that has that is attached to the previous one without it!

also idk why on mobile the sleepover hc and the Alice hc got cut short?? The sleepover one is supposed to say that now she can't sleep for an entirely different reason and the end of the second bullet says (Alice big sister mode activated).

[teleportzz]

thinking about lena and della... they're both among the most interesting characters in dt17 and they could bond over so much!! they're both silly, rebellious weirdgirls who play video games, love adventure, and care about webby! they both have over a decade of trauma from experiences so unique it would be hard to find another person who fully gets it (stranded on the moon? summoned from the shadow realm by an evil witch and given no agency over her own life? pretty unique traumas!) they could connect over so many things both happy and tragic in nature. and if we assume lena's nervous/distrusting of adult women because of magica, then them having a positive relationship could be a really powerful show of trust for lena!

i love them both sm

[cartoon-brainrot]

So for the child of evil AU

I find it absolutely hilarious on how scrooge thought of Louie as his child with just 2 things being the eye color and louie just calling goldie mom without thinking about any other possibilities like "oh maybe she took in an orphan" or something

Also do you think Boyd would also be friends with louie in this AU, considering how doofus (his new profound big brother) is friends with him.

What about webby? Does she ever gets a chance to be introduced to doofus and becomes friends or do they not know eachother during this AU

If they do meet eachother and they become a friend group I wonder what adventures they would have?

Also have you ever thought of how the villains needing to help one another to take care of Louie, like let's say louie is being left with Mark beaks AND Don Karnage

SO SORRY ABOUT THE DELAY, SCHOOL’S BEEN CRAZY BUSY! I promise I’m working on all your asks <33

But yes, Scrooge definitely went on with a little more than “he called her mom” especially because he knows he isn’t the only one Goldie seduced in her life!

Talking about BOYD, Doofus and Webby, they’d definitely be a friend group! A chaotic one at that-

Doofus will be jealous of BOYD because they’re both attached to Louie, yes, but Doofus is more chaotic than BOYD, and we all know how Louie is about chaos!

They’d definitely get along, though! BOYD and Louie still meet at Doofus’s party, but this time Mark Beaks stops Doofus from setting BOYD on Louie, and fixes his code! Which, goes down the drain the moment BOYD learns how to write his own code!

Webby and Doofus are certainly interesting, because they’d surely be enemies at first, both competing for Louie’s N. 1 Friend spot, especially since they’re both new to friendship- and BOYD doesn’t really get that concept yet.

And regarding the villains…

Goldie definitely trusts Ma Beagle and Mark Beaks more, mostly because Ma Beagle is an actual mother, and knows the basics of caretaking- and Mark Beaks is easily manipulated, so Louie can make him do whatever he wants!

But if she really has to pair the babysitters up, she has the pairs picked out!

Ma Beagle - Glomgold

Magica - Mark Beaks or Don Karnage - Mark Beaks!

Don Karnage rarely gets to hang out with Louie, because Goldie knows he’s a part of FOWL and Magica because she was horrible to Lena so she does NOT trust them at all, which is why she leaves both with Mark Beaks because, weirdly enough, he’s the one she trusts more!

Finally!

This took me so long, it’s probably the longest ask I’ve received!

(Don’t mind the fact that I can’t seem to decide which style to use, I am STILL figuring it out)

(Song BOYD and Louie are singing is “All You Need” from Sofia the first)

(Also click for higher resolution <3)

(Also so sorry for the late responses, I promise I’m reading all asks and working on each one of them, school is just keeping me VERY busy)

[writebackatya]

Scrooge: Everyone, I have terrible news, as it turns out my trusted colleague, Bradford Buzzard, has been secretly working for FOWL this entire time

Della: {raises hands in the air} CALLED IT!

Donald: You did not…

Della: Yes I did! Ever since we were kids, Donnie, I did not trust him! I always said he was evil!

Donald: No, all you ever said was that he was a stick in the mud with a stick up his butt

Della: Well I’m wasn’t wrong there! Freaking bald bastard

Scrooge: Della! Please…

Della: What?! He’s officially a bad guy now! I’m just insulting him with straight up facts about him

Scrooge: Well some of us here are still processing the fact that a close colleague of ours would do something like this

Louie: {sudden realization} …He tried to kill me.

Della, Donald, & Scrooge: WHAT!?!

Louie: When I was the richest duck, he suggested that I turned off the magical defense system that was holding the Bombie as a way to save money! There’s no way he didn’t know about the Bombie, right? So yeah, I’m waaaay past the whole “processing” part. I’m ready to start making fun of the bald bastard

Donald: Louie!

Della: Wait. Bambi tried to kill you?

Scrooge: Getting back on track, all of us need to stay alert! We cannae trust anyone anymore, so be aware of anyone suspicious

Louie: Like Uncle Donald’s new girlfriend?

Della & Huey: WHAT!?!

Dewey: Yeah, you guys didn’t hear?! When Louie and I executed our brilliant plan to help get The Three Caballeros on Ms. Glamour’s It List, Uncle Donald fell in looooooooooovvvvve!

Della & Huey: OooOOooooo!

Louie: {shows the two a pic of Daisy} She’s like a 9 while he’s a 5 at best

Della: {looks at the phone} Hmmm…Oh yeah that is suspicious…

Donald: Oh gee, thanks everybody

Louie: Okay, sorry. High 5

Dewey: {slaps his hand against Louie’s}

Huey: Uncle Donald, we’re all just surprised AND happy that you found someone!

Della: Yeah. Wish you told us sooner, that’s like major news there! That’s like if you never told the boys about me when you and Uncle Scrooge were raising them Webby: Well actually- Scrooge: {jumps in before Webby can say anything while Donald silently mouths the words "Not now!" as he shakes his head at Webby} We all need to be extra careful these days. Gyro, how is security at the Bin? Gyro: Better than ever, Mr. McDuck! Nobody will be able to break into the bin without my knowledge Huey: What about Mark Beaks? Gyro: No! That was a fluke... Dewey: Glomgold? Gyro: He had the stopwatch! That doesn't count! Louie: Gee, I wonder how he got his hands on that... Gyro: Oh I don't wanna hear it, Green Nephew Della & Donald: Louie... Webby: ...Oooh! What about Agent Dee? We haven't heard from her in awhile and she might break in! Fenton: Ha-ha, whaaaaaat? Gyro: Like I said, security is better than ever and it is impossible for anyone to break in. Right, Dr. Intern?! Fenton: Yeah, right...{phone buzzes} So is this meeting over, I gotta go... Della: OooOoo. Got a hot date? Fenton: YES! I MEAN NO! I MEAN...I gotta go! {walks out of the room} Della: {whispers to Donald & Gyro} Oh he's seeing someone. And they're totally doing it Donald & Gyro: {exasperated sigh}

Analyzing "The Web I Spin For You"

Okay, so... THIS FUCKING SONG is one of the most interesting and compelling songs in the Nightmare Time saga, and nobody ever talks about it---unless they're praising Mariah's voice, which is something you should be doing regardless. Outside of "The Summoning," this is the only song sung by one of the gods of the Black & White, and unlike "The Summoning," which is just vibes, villain chaos, and dealing out some Faustian bargains with the NPMD gang, this song actually provides lore. It shows us a deeper look into Webby's psyche and motivations, something that the Lords in Black have yet to be gifted. It gives us a hint as to how brothers and sister split apart... and I think it might be our very first---and so far, only---look into the parent of these eldritch beings.

Okay, let's start.

"Why do you haunt me like a ghost? / You're supposed to love me the most"

Right off the bat, we have emotional depth. Webby is singing about someone who has hurt her, someone who was supposed to love her but instead used her and continues to haunt her life. Who is this person, and what did they do?

"Got me in the spell you cast / The iris of your eye is black / Weren't you the one to watch my back / Unlike the witches you summon?"

This is where it ties into the episode, with "witches you summon." You get the clear sense that Webby is talking about a family member---maybe her brothers, but it has to be one in particular, and it doesn't really feel like she's talking about Wiggly... if nothing more than the fact that his irises are very clearly not black, at least if the doll is anything to go by.

"Have you noticed that my trust has turned / You may have taught me, but now I've learned / Gotta catch you before I'm burned / In the web I spin for you"

Now, here is where it starts to make sense. I think this song is about the father of the Lords in Black and Webby---someone who taught them how to be gods of chaos. Maybe once upon a time, Webby believed in what her father was teaching her, maybe he even kept the truth secret from her, but she grew up, saw through it, decided that she didn't want to participate in the evil, and left.

At this point in the song, the phrase "the web I spin for you" seems to refer to something Webby made for her family's benefit, and based on the lyrics, it eventually became a curse for her. I saw someone mention the theory that Webby created the split timeline... and you know what? Maybe that is the web she made. A blessing, because nothing is ever permanent and nobody ever truly dies, but a curse, because she watches her brothers succeed again and again, and even when she wins, there's no guarantee that the people she helped will be happy. In fact, the episode this comes from has the only ending in the Hatchetfield universe---nobody dies, Hannah makes it out with Miss Holloway's help, Lex and Ethan get out of jail. And honestly... it hits harder that way, because I think there's enough evidence to suggest that The Witch In The Web is in the same timeline as Nightmare Time 2. And we all know how that ended.

"You used to keep me at your side / (Have you given that up? Have you given that up? Have you given that up?) / I suppose you'd have me empathize"

The way I'm interpreting it now, this could add fuel to the fire as to why the LiB resent Webby. Maybe back when she still believed in her family, she was her father's favorite. But something happened---maybe nothing more than the fact that she was kind---that changed all that. In the very next line, she says that the person she's singing about stabbed her in the back. Maybe she was lied to, maybe she was betrayed---whatever the reason, this could be why she left.

"Have you noticed that my trust has turned / You may have taught me, but now I've learned / I'll enjoy it as I watch you squirm / In the web I spin for you"

Here is where "the web I spin for you" shifts from being something Webby made to help to something she made to trap. The web she made---maybe it's the timeline, maybe it's something else---benefits nobody, but especially not the people who hurt her. She doesn't trust them anymore, so she's turned her web into something that can hurt them back.

"What's the point of giving love and trust for / I thought it something that was worth the fight for / And now I wonder what I worked so hard for / I even thought that I could give my life for you"

God. Damn. There's so much I can say, but the first thing that comes to mind is... poor Webby. Based on these lyrics alone, she has been hurt, she's been betrayed, she's likely been lied to or mislead about the purpose of what she was doing, and it's a miracle that she's still her loving and caring self. And speaking of which...

"I was the only one that loved and cared for / Have you noticed that I have it in for / As I grew older that I have no need for / The web I spin for you"

This one is actually pretty straightforward, and it lends credence to the theory that Webby truly is the only Queen in White---the only good entity in her family. The next line could either indicate that she's grown to the point where she's too powerful for the web she made, or she's outright rejecting her family and the purpose they gave her---either way, it's still cool.

"If I'm-a trust, I'm gonna trust in me / You may have taught me, but I'm now learning / All this time, I've been untangling / The web I spin for you"

And THIS RIGHT HERE is where the "gotta take it back, take it back" refrain all throughout the song makes sense. Webby is now attempting to undo her actions, now that she knows that she can't trust her family and that she's learning on her own. She's untangling the web she made, and in doing so, turning the tide.

"No doubt that if I drop dead / You'll find me tangled up / In the web I spin for you"

Full disclosure---I always have to look up those last two lyrics to know what they are, and they're very bone-chilling. My only thought to what this might mean is that... Webby's saying that the web she made might kill her. And she's either trying to guilt the person she's singing to, or she's furious at the fact that they made her create such a thing, and... yeah. I don't know what's more hard-hitting.

ANYWAYS, this song is supremely underrated

Webby Week Day 6: Being A Clone/Angst!

It was a hard landing.

Probably their hardest since the Sunchaser went down and the clan's darkest secret had come out.

This one felt... different, though, in a way. In a few ways.

"Everything okay, Webby?" Dewey asked. He figured he should break the awkward silence that hung around making everyone uncomfortable.

"Oh? Yeah, it's fine," Webby answered, but the downcast look on her face betrayed something, "It's just... I guess I always wondered where I came from, who my parents were, and now I realise I've technically been living with my dad my whole life. And it's-"

"I know," Dewey said, "I remember how it felt when we were looking for Mom. I was worried we'd see something we didn't want to find. And yeah, it was painful and horrible and sad, but look at us now! It's nearly like nothing ever happened! I promise you, it gets better, okay?"

"But- but he's Uncle Scrooge," Webby went on glumly, "For so long, I couldn't even call him that, he was Mr. McDuck. You can't tell me that isn't messed up."

"Well," Della chimed in, "Not that this is, ya know, any help at all, but he probably feels just as weird about all this as you do. And, you might hate me for this, but I think the best thing you can do is talk to him about it, and do it soon. This is not the kind of thing you sit on for any amount of time."

"And, no better place for crazy family conversations than this plane, am I right?" Louie added from his seat, "Trust me, this won't be as bad."

"Okay, I'm gonna do it," Webby raised her head and walked to the cockpit, where Scrooge was sitting, trying not to look at anyone.

"Erm..." Webby said, but trailed off. What did she say next, when she didn't even know how to address him?

"Yes?" Scrooge recognised her tiny voice and turned around in his chair to face her.

"I wanna talk to you," Webby admitted, "I know this whole "I'm your clone daughter and FOWL made me" thing is absolutely insane..."

Scrooge nodded in agreement.

"But honestly, I don't know how to deal with it," she finished.

"I'm not sure either," Scrooge told her.

"I don't want anything to change, cause what we have is so good, and I can't ruin it," Webby continued, "I guess what I'm trying to say is, even though everything is different... can I still call you my uncle? It just... feels right, I can't explain it."

"Of course ye can, Webby darlin'," Scrooge said softly, "I feel the same. I dinnae think I'm ready to be a father, anyway."

They both gave quiet chuckles; the tension was breaking.

Yeah, it'd been a hard landing.

But what matters was that they got back up again.

More DT/PKNA headcanons

As much as I like to imagine scenarios between Odin and Donald in my head, Ducktales isn't just made of Donald Duck; so what would the relationships be like between Odin and the rest of the cast? So here we go:

Killmotor Hill residents

Scrooge Mcduck: Odin and Scrooge are courteous to each other, although Odin is annoyed that Scrooge unintentionally brought harm to Donald during his adventures, while Scrooge secretly believes that Odin is too young, and therefore inexperienced, to go into business with him.

HDL: Huey, Dewey and Louie admire Odin from the first moment they meet him (Huey for his intelligence, Dewey for his popularity and charm, Louie simply because he is rich), but over time they get to know him better and Odin becomes a second guardian after Donald Duck.

Webby Vandequack: At first she’s suspicious of Odin because no one really knows anything about him, and the fact Scrooge doesn’t trust him might have influenced her, but changes her mind after her grandma vouched for him.

Beakley: Being a former S.H.U.S.H. agent, Beakley already knew One, so it wasn't difficult for her to recognize him in his new body; she had thwarted several cases thanks to the information given to her by Uno so she already trusted the Artificial Intelligence, it is not difficult for her to trust him now.

Della Duck: Della never knew Donald had a close friend outside of the manor, but she always felt sad when her brother would prefer spend time with said friend than his sister and uncle, so even back from the moon Della is jealous of Donald and Odin’s close bond and would try to follow them.

Launchpad Mcquack: These two are polar opposites; they don’t hate each-other but never put them in the same room, you would feel the awkwardness from a mile away.

Duckworth: I don’t think ghosts and androids mix well.

trigger warning incoherent rambling about scrooge mcduck control issues that i put under a cut bc it got long and unwieldy

this is mostly speculation but i do wonder if part of the way scrooge processes the spear of selene is thinking that he couldn't keep della safe because he wasn't there. if he'd been there with her instead of just over the phone, maybe he could have guided her or pointed out the storm or kept her focused or something.

obviously that's not really realistic, but it sort of changes his perspective from "this was my fault because i built her the spear" to "this was my fault a little because i let her go alone" (not that he necessarily could have known) and, simultaneously, "this ultimately isn't my fault because she went solo and i wasn't involved in the crash".

im saying this because the implication, particularly with season one, becomes, "therefore, if i keep everyone close to me, i can protect them, because i have never failed someone while ive been there for them" because his security lies in his self-confidence. if he keeps the kids close to him on mount neverrest, everyone will be fine because he's going to make it to the top through force of sheer willpower and keep everyone safe. if he guards everyone in the pyramid or whatever then he is in control of the situation and doesn't feel guilty or concerned about taking the kids into danger.

this sets us up for fun situations where he loses the kids! like in the living mummies where louie and webby get separated so he's pacing around itching to get going and find them because they're lost and he doesn't know what's happening to them hello SoS parallels. or situations like the last crash where he is like "we have a problem so obviously the solution is that I Personally Climb Out And Fix The Engine so that i am in control".

and like of course he's not a total helicopter parent or whatever and (mainly for simplicity of plot reasons) people are able to sneak away like in the spear of selene and go explore stuff on their own without him worrying about where they are but the overarching sentiment stands

in conclusion i just think it's fun if he mentally has all the littles on backpack leashes and his composure starts to crack when he they aren't within arm's reach of him or a trusted adult and also my brain stopped working like three hours ago i just love s1

[drawingducktalesducks]

Lena: We have a problem!

Violet: You mean beyond the fact that we were unceremoniously ejected from a flying aircraft and are now plummeting rapidly towards the Earth?

Lena: My magic- it's not working! I think I drained it again or something!!

Violet: Perfect.

Lena: Perfect!?

Violet: I now have a solution to both our problems.

Lena: What the heck does that m- OOOOF!

Violet: Say hello to Webbigail for me.

Lena: VIOLET-!!!

-

June: Webby, quick midair question-

May: Do you trust us.

Webby: Well you lied to me and manipulated my friends and attacked me and tried to abduct me and were created and raised by evil people who wanted to hurt my family- so uh, yeah! Sure why not!!!

June: Oh good! Because Lena just gave us these wrist string things-

May: -and we owe her one for cutting that other string thing.

Webby: You mean the red string that I used to connect her picture to mine? The one she literally blew up over after watching it get severed?

June: That's the one!

May: Tell her "sorry" from us, okay?

June: And not to worry about Violet- we'll be hanging out with her until she's done.

Webby: Done? Done with wh- AARGH!

May: Sorry for kicking you and also you're welcome!

Webby: Thank you but why-???

Webby: Lena!

Lena: Webby!?

Webby: Oh wow I tried running scenarios of this conversation on the way to F.O.W.L. but they always involved more time to think and less falling from the sky-

Lena: I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, Webby!

Webby: -what?

Lena: I- I got all jealous and possessive again, just like you and Vi's first sleepover-

Webby: Lena-

Lena: It was stupid and dumb! I was-

Webby: No, no you weren't! June and May were TRYING to split us up- they were literally sent by F.O.W.L. to do that, and I almost-

Lena: What, gave them the same chance you gave me?

Webby: ...alright fine, you win that point. But-

Lena: No.

Webby: Hmm okay. Even so-

Lena: No, that's not- look- I get what it's like having a sister now. I've got Vi, and it's awesome. It's the best thing EVER. You deserve that too. Okay?

Webby: O-okay.

Webby: ..... you made them friendship bracelets.

Lena: Yeah. I- that's what I should've done from the start.

Webby: It was really sweet, super kind, they definitely needed that! BUT- I know the whole bracelet thing started with me- I mean- I was the one that tied a string between our pictures on the great big board of relationships! But...

Lena: ... but?

Webby: I don't think we need a piece of string to keep us together.

Lena:

Lena: oh

Webby: We don't... Right?

Lena: ... yeah.

Webby: Aww, don't cry.

Lena: I'm- I'm not. It's the stupid wind-

Webby: OH RIGHT WE'RE STILL FALLING hey how's your magic?

Lena: Uhhh-

Webby: Right right I was worried about that, we really need to make sure you can have stable magic even if you're arguing with your friends- but we're short on time right now! So!!

Webby: ~Mwah~

Lena: wh-EBBY????

Webby: Glow, my beautiful angelic sorceress! Go save our respective shamelessly scheming little sisters!

Lena: I- you-

Lena: ...

Lena: N-nice.

Webby: Oh oh a FISTBUMP! We haven't done that since-!

Lena: The night we met, yeah. Wanna blow it up?

Webby: Sound effects or for real??

Lena: Oh we can totally do both this time.

Webby: YES! Can you try exploding me in the direction of the boys and Scrooge!?

Lena: Anything for you, Pink. Ready?

Webby: READY!

Lena: Ka-pwish.

Webby: BOOM!

Lena: Pop pop pop-

Webby: Neyooooooooo~

Lena: Kra-KOOM!

Webby: WOO HOO!!! Call me! Oh and tell June and May thanks for kicking me!!

Lena: I will!

Lena: ...I ..... definitely will... once I stop feeling like I just exploded...

-

Violet: Greetings, sorceress. You seem especially shiny today.

Lena: Don't. Ask.

Violet: Very well. I shall observe.

Violet: I see that your magic has miraculously recovered.

Lena: Ugh.

June: Does that happen every time Webby kisses you on the cheek?

Lena: ..I don't know.

May: Oh duck please tell me that wasn't the first-

Lena: HELLO! Thank you for flying with Sky Sorcery Services! This is your sorceress speaking! Would everyone PLEASE stay quiet until we've safely landed so I can get as far away from you all as possible??

Violet: Away from everyone except Webbigail I presume.

Lena: You know what? I've changed my mind, little sisters are the WORST.

June: Thanks!

Violet: We do try.

May: I count as a little sister too, right? June??

June: Heheh.

May: June tell me I'm a little sister too now and I have immunity- Why are you smirking!? JUNE-

Honestly anti lib shipping anon is kinda right about how it’s weird that people are so desperate for romance/shipping (I personally don’t like shipping them because they’re eldritch entities and thinking they’d indulge in romance inherently humanises them) but the whole “they’re kids” thing, in my opinion, kinda takes away from their agency? Like they have full control of their actions and are fully choosing to do horrible things. They DO know better, as webby demonstrates, they just choose to cause pain anyway. As another anon pointed out, many of their childish behaviours (particularly wiggly’s) are tricks to get people to trust them. The entirety of watcher world is a front to lure people in. Like, yeah, the concept of a bunch of children with god like powers causing destruction is really fun, but I don’t think it’s what’s happening here. They’re not whimsical, they’re horrifying (and we love them)

But yeah I do agree that fandom’s insistence on shipping can get annoying

hai! I saw ur post abt Grace headcanons, and I just wanted to ask about her and her connection to Blinky

Hi anon! Here’s an unintentionally kind of long elaboration about my headcanon for Grace being connected to the Lords in Black for much longer than we see in canon! This is like a mix of headcanons as well as overanalyzing things in canon under the context of these hcs!

Also, funny story, I fully misinterpreted this ask the first time that I read it and thought that you were asking for headcanons of Grace’s dynamic with Blinky so I ended up writing a ton of those before I realized that you were talking specifically about a point from my last hc post! With that being said, I’ll also be posting those headcanons after this as a bit of a bonus so that they don’t go to waste!

Quick reiteration of the hc that this is based on and also another point that inspired this:

I like to think that Grace has been connected to the LIB since long before we see her, Steph, and Pete summon them in NPMD. Like Lex was once connected to Webby but forgot as she got older, Grace was friends with the Lords in Black when she was a child but she lost that memory as she grew up.

This point was mostly inspired by Blinky’s line about having been watching Grace and the fact that Grace is implied to have the gift since she had a vision of Max killing Richie.

The other point that inspired this was that in the NPMD talkback, they answered a question that essentially asked if Grace was the anti-christ and if I recall correctly, they never gave a definitive ‘yes’ or ‘no’ so that spiralled into the idea that Grace is essentially the anti-Hannah of the Hatchetfield universe.

Basically, if Hannah is connected to Webby and in the simplest of terms is meant to use her abilities to save Hatchetfield, Grace is connected to the Lords in Black and is meant to destroy it.

Onto connection hcs now!

- The Lords introduced themselves to Grace when she was a very young girl. They told her that they were guardian angels sent by God to protect her which allowed them to gain her trust and more easily persuade her under the guise of holy intentions. They were playing the long con so they couldn’t be antagonistic at this point. First, they had to convince her that they were there to help. 

Tinky made sure she was never late to school, Blinky kept an eye out for her when she was crossing the road, Wiggly helped her stand up to her bullies, Nibbly reminded her not to forget her lunch bag, Pokey made sure she remembered the lyrics for her choir performances at church, etc.

- Through establishing this trust with Grace, they were able to take the opportunity of being around her during her crucial developmental years to instill their values/views on things like violence and death in her. This is why things like lying to the police or selling drugs are bad in her mind while dismembering a body is not! 

This is also how Grace picks up the habit of using the same nick-naming conventions as the Lords in Black do. The LIB very often refer to people as “name-ie/y” like Stephie, Gracie, etc. and similarly, in Bury the Bully, Grace is shown to do the same thing: “Petey, get the acid, Ruthie, you can grab the hatchet, and Stephie, tapes!” This bit of influence remained with her even after she forgot about the LIB.

- As she got older, likely around the age that she was approaching Middle School, the Lord’s methods changed since she was too old for ‘imaginary friends’ now. They slowly stopped talking to her outright and let her forget them so that they could begin strengthening their connection even further. Rather than talking to her as external beings, they essentially merged themselves and their voices in with her subconscious thoughts to the point that Grace isn’t even really aware that these thoughts aren’t truly her own. They’re still with her and arguably closer than ever before but to her, they were nothing more than imaginary friends that, eventually, she’ll forget all together. 

Notably, during this time of perceived distance, Blinky keeps an especially watchful and vigilant eye on Grace, learning the things that matter to her most and waiting for the right time for them to reenter her life officially.

Little analysis/theory thing of mostly canon that I like to use to support this hc :3 (I’m aware this doesn’t work perfectly but it’s fun to me!) 

(someone on this site has definitely said something similar about the Dirty Girl lighting before so I at least know I’m not the only one thinking this way lol)

The lighting in this show is really deliberate a lot of the time and I think that the colours used in Dirty Girl especially are very specific! In that scene, the lighting is pink and purple which I like to interpret as being a sign of Blinky and Nibbly’s influence on Grace. We know from the later line in the summoning that Blinky has been watching Grace and I think that this lighting here says that he is watching her now. (Similarly, when Steph and Pete have the purple lighting during If I Loved You, he is watching them then, which is how the LIB know what Steph cherishes most.)

Then with Nibbly, he’s all about hunger and desire so if his lighting is there, I like to think that his influence is what’s making Grace have this dream. He’s known Grace for her whole life; he knows that having sexual desire is one of the worst things that she can think of doing, so it becomes the perfect tool to make her snap. The LIB need her to be in a state of distress and separation from her faith so that she’s pliable to their will and they know that this will get her there. Nibbly’s influence here is the first step in the second phase of their plan to recruit Grace as their conduit (the first being to meet her when she’s young and input their values in her).

Similarly, the lighting while they act out Grace’s plan at the Waylon Place is all blue, and when you think about how Grace’s idea was largely centered around putting on a performance for Max it’s interesting to consider that Pokey may have been the one to put that idea in Grace’s head. Pokey, knowing that the Waylon Place was structurally unsound, wanted ‘Grace’s’ plan to fail or more accurately, he wanted his plan to go exactly as he intended. The nerds killing Max is just another push for Grace toward being open to their intervention.

Grace also mentions to Steph that she hasn’t been thinking clearly lately after the Beanies scene which I like to think is because the LIB have gotten louder in her head. Again, she’s used to their quiet influencing of her and believes that their voices are truly her own thoughts so when they’ve pushed her this far already, they take her vulnerable state as a chance to get a bit more vocal and demanding. In response, Grace interprets that chaos as just not being able to think clearly because for the first time, it is not her own thoughts that are most prominent in her head.

By the time Grace summons them with Steph and Pete, they’ve already gotten her exactly where they want her. She’s given in to sexual desires and she’s gone against her morals, thus she’s in the perfect place for them to start the final phase of their plan.

First, reveal themselves to her. Attack her connection to her faith and sever her from her moral guide. This way she’ll be desperate for something new to guide her in the absence of what she has always held central to her character. 

(slight interruption bc I didn't know where to put this otherwise vv)

I think it’s interesting in the summoning scene that Grace’s “oh!”s during the beginning of the song sound different from Pete and Steph’s. To me, the sound she’s making as well as her facial expressions (right before the Lords appear, she squeezes her eyes shut tightly and tucks her head against her chest in a grimace-like expression) almost give the impression that she is in pain. In the context of my reading, I think that the LIB taking a physical form and essentially detaching themselves from Grace’s mind was a painful sensation for her.

Second, use her friends and her nature against her to get her to give up her chastity: the final connection that Grace has to her faith and the very thing that gives her a sense of self/identity. They need her to be hopeless and lost if they want her to submit to them.

Grace might be morally corrupt, but she is self-sacrificing and they know that, they’ve seen the Abstinence Camp timeline and watched her throw herself in front of an axe to protect Steph and Pete. The LIB’s deal to get rid of Max was never truly about getting what Grace, Steph, or Pete cherished most; it was about breaking Grace. They always knew that she would be the one to give something up in the end, they just had to make sure it was her chastity and that her friends would be at risk if she wasn’t the one to make the sacrifice. 

In doing this, they can now reenter her life and influence her uninhibited by the previous objections of her faith. They have at their fingertips a sheltered teenage girl, that’s desperate for guidance and full of unchecked rage and potential power who they’ve primed to be moulded into whatever they like as long as they present themselves as all that she has left and they have succeeded in doing that.

Following this would be mostly canon activities with Grace being fully under their influence and on her crusade against dirty dudes! 

(And in my head I’m gonna make it a little sad because this girl gave up the most important thing to her and everyone perceives it as silly because Steph and Pete’s were another person which is way bigger of a deal in comparison, but it still makes me sad that she didn’t get to chose having her first time!! It was something she had to do without getting to decide if she was ready and that hurts my heart. Now she’s just a lost kid who has been constantly having people tell her what to think and how to act and she’s found possibly the worst people to follow because she’s desperate and doesn’t know how to exist if she’s not worshipping someone else. Someone just give her a hug and tell her that she’s allowed to fuck up every once in a while, PLEASE!)

Okay, that’s all for now! This was really long and rambly so I hope that it made sense!! If anything I said needs clarifying/further elaboration feel free to let me know/ask and I can rephrase/add-on! :3

Thank you for the ask anon!!

[knuckles-junior]

I’ve been working hard on my new fanfic of Ducktales. It takes place after the series. And I decided to show you all a sneak peek of it. Enjoy!

It's...all over. F.O.W.L has been defeated.

The adventures of Scrooge McDuck has come to an end. As the McDuck family and all of their friends were all riding the sunchaser home, Scrooge was the only one who was trying to keep himself awake as he watched Donald and Della sleeping beside him. Everyone in the plane was also sleeping. The kids and Mrs. Beakley were all cuddled up together.

As they almost reached McDuck Manor, the duck family decided to let their friends stay to have a well deserved rest. Donald also wanted to bring May and June so that he can have them meet Daisy. While Launchpad was taking the wheel, he turned around, even though he's not supposed to while driving, he looked at everyone sleeping and gave out a smile. He'll surely never forget the day that he went all out being a hero in that Gizmoduck gear.

"Launchpad!" Della yelled as she took the wheel. "Do I have to do everything myself?!" She groaned. Nobody would want another crash like what happened when Launchpad accidentally opened the back door of the plane that made everyone fly out. She gave out a sigh.

When they arrived, they all walked to the front door of the mansion. Everyone just wants to sleep after a long battle that they've faced.

"Night, Mr. McDee. I gotta get home to watch the Darkwing Duck marathon!"

"I had to face F.O.W.L on my own, Donald almost died, and you want to watch Darkwing Duck at TWO IN THE MORNING?!"

Donald shushed at Scrooge and Launchpad. "The kids are sleeping!" He whispered as he looked at May and June sleeping. "Awwwww." He carried them to the mansion.

Scrooge sighed. He noticed that Launchpad had left, meaning that he is the only one left outside. He looked up to the stars. Suddenly, he reminded himself of his past. The last couple of years have been frightening for him and his family. From the shadow war, to the alien invasion, and to the point where the world was almost erased from an evil organization.

Everything that man that he trusted all those years discovered his true colors in front of him.

Especially when he was the one who was behind Della’s disappearance. Scrooge will never forgive someone like Bradford ever again. After what happened today, he's wondering what will happen to his future of being an adventurer. He entered the mansion and closed the door. The kids heard Scrooge come in.

He took a few steps forward to his family. Everyone was silent. Each of them wanted to say something, but they didn’t have the strength to do it. It shows that everyone has had it hard yesterday. Scrooge took a deep breath.

“How’s…everyone doing?” He asked.

Webby looked up to her father. “…We’re fine, now that we’re all safe at home.”

“It sure was tough dropping everyone off tho.” Dewey stretched his arms.

“Yeah…”

"We're just glad that we took down F.O.W.L together. As a family," Huey added.

“And I’m so glad that my dad is safe too.” Webby jumped and hugged Scrooge.

“…Thank goodness…” A tear dropped from the old man’s eye and he began to sob.

“…Dad?”

“I’m sorry…I just…can’t even get over the fact that I’m a dad now… and I’m just glad that everyone is alright.” Scrooge swiped his tears away.

“Of course we are!” Della exclaimed. “Nothing can tear us apart now, Uncle Scrooge!”

Donald agreed. “You said it! We’ll always be with you. No matter what.”

“We had to save you, because you’re our uncle!” Dewey gives Scrooge a hug. “You’ve done so much for us, and now we want to return the favor to you. We are the Duck family after all. Right, guys?”

Everyone nodded in agreement and huddled together for a group hug. Mrs. Beakley checked the time and it was close to 3 A.M.

“We should all rest. We’ve been through too much yesterday. Even the past eleven years.” She said.

Everyone agreed. They were ready to get to sleep in their bedrooms, but Webby didn’t want to feel alone after what she’s been through. She stopped Scrooge.

“Hey, dad? You don’t mind if I…sleep with you?” Webby asked.

“Of course, Webby darling.”

After Scrooge and Webby changed into their pajamas, they cuddled up in bed together.

“Goodnight, dad.” Webby gives Scrooge a kiss on the cheek.

Scrooge smiled. “Goodnight, Webby.”

Webby turned off the light of the lamp. They both closed their eyes and went to sleep, until there was more than one footstep being heard from the hallway. The bedroom door opened as some people were sneaking around in the blanket. Webby turned the lamp back on and saw Huey, Dewey, Louie, Donald and Della on the bed with them.

“Wha?!” Scrooge caught the others on his bed. They gave out an innocent smile and some awkward laughs.

Della cleared her throat. “Uncle Scrooge? Can we all uhhhh….”

“Fine. Just for tonight.”

“Well it’s past midnight actually.” Huey clarified.

“Anyone wanna sleep in?” Dewey asked.

Louie nodded. “Everyday.”

“I could sure use it.”

Webby gave out a smile. “Us too.”

“Alright. Goodnight, kids.” Scrooge closed his eyes.

Everyone cuddled up with Scrooge. “Goodnight, Uncle Scrooge.”

And with that, everyone has fallen asleep. By the look on Scrooge’s smile, he really needed his kids to comfort him. He felt so lucky to have an amazing family. While everyone was asleep, Della suddenly remembered that Donald was leaving for his adventure with Daisy soon. She closed her eyes and cried herself to sleep. After all the adventures they’ve been through and including their very last, the duck family and their friends slept for over a day.
