Adult Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck as astronauts as Apolo 11 Crew (Neil Armstrong, Edwin Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins) - Space Race - Ducktales 2017 - Ducktales in Space

Since I drew Donald Duck as Yuri Gagarin and Della Duck as Valentina Tereshkova as the first men in space, then the parallel of the first men on the moon could have something to do with Huey, Dewey and Louie from Ducktales 2017. And I drew the three of them as Apollo 11 astronauts who were the first to walk on the moon (allegedly), but here they are no longer children, but adults. I don't usually draw adult Huey, Dewey and Louie, so this is my first time doing it and I did it with the Ducktales 2017 version, but in my own style. Yes, I redraw the poses of astronauts Neil Armstrong, Edwin Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins who led the Apollo 11 crew in the Saturn V rocket from July 16 to July 24, 1969, with July 20 and 21 being Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon and were the first people to walk on the moon and brought great pride to the USA and to all mankind.

And this is where Huey, Dewey and Louie grew up, playing the role of the Apollo 11 crew and who will be the first ducks to walk on the moon. Yes, although they are different, they all together have their tasks in space. Huey as an explorer of new unknown frontiers and a scientist, Dewey as a pilot and coordinator and Louie as a businessman who finances it all, but they are all astronauts together. Like like their mother and like their uncle. And they are in spacesuits (Apollo/Skylab spacesuit) which are mostly white, but I colored some parts according to them.

"Look to the stars my darling baby boys Life is strange and vast Filled with wonders and joys Face each new sun with eyes clear and true Unafraid of the unknown Because I'll face it all with you" - a lullaby from their mother Della Duck.

Also this song about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1qQuSuQaHY

I hope you like this drawing and this idea. Also this is my gift to @ducksinspaceadventure , who asked for this. Also happy belated birthday to Huey, Dewey and Louie and may the guiding stars guide them to endless adventure and their destination! It's a small step for ducklings, but a big one for humanity, that is, for ducks. Feel like and reblog this!

Trick or treat Huey_Louie_Dewey - Adult version Happy Halloween everyone! : D Okay, I made this drawing today as fast as possible, so it's sketchy, but I'm pretty happy with the result, so I've decided to post it anyway! I missed these guys. It's been a long time since I've made something about them, so I think it's a good choice to dedicate this Halloween to Huey, Louie and Dewey. Hope you like it! :D

[paw-present]

Full versions of stuff I’ve posted before. A lot of doobles!

Bonus late night Huey:

[tealottie]

Happy (late) birthday, HDL! <33

Here are my adult designs for them! Dewey's a model, Huey's a scout leader (and studying to be a professor), and Louie's a businessman

[writebackatya]

FUTURE DuckTales (2017) Headcanons:

Huey, Dewey, and Louie.

Also don’t think that I’m picturing the boys’ future designs like their future designs from the ‘87 show. This is just to illustrate that I’m talking about them as adults

As I am posting this post, it is April 15th, the birthday of Huey, Dewey, and Louie! Happy Birthday boys!

To celebrate the occasion, I thought I’d share some of my headcanons of what I think the future would look like each for each of the boys. This won’t be too in-depth, just some ideas I had. Let’s starts with the “oldest” triplet:

Huey:

When I think about Huey Duck there are two things that come to mind: Junior Woodchuck and Science. Obviously we know that Huey will someday become a Senior Woodchuck (we believe in you buddy!) and I think he will be a Woodchuck for life. I can see him being a great Woodchuck leader

And out of the triplets, I honestly think Huey would be the one who does the most world traveling in his future. He has such a thirst for knowledge I can see him also being somewhat of an archeologist

As for the science part, I always love seeing Huey included in Team Science fanart so I can see him working alongside Fenton and Gyro in the lab whenever he’s not out adventuring

Dewey:

Personally, I don’t see Dewey staying in Duckburg for his adult life. Like Launchpad, I like to think Dewey eventually moves to St. Canard where he joins Darkwing, LP, and Gosalyn on their adventures

Fans of Darkwing Duck are probably familiar with Gosalyn’s superhero persona, Quiverwing Quack, well I like to think in the DT17 universe Gosalyn eventually does become Quiverwing and Dewey is basically her sidekick like how Launchpad is Darkwing’s sidekick

As for his career, I like to think that Dewey starts his own entertainment and mass media company where he works on and funds projects ranging from movies, television, and whatever catches his fancy. (Think Disney, but not evil). Gosalyn also assists Dewey in his career and the two eventually get married (like Launchpad and Drake!)

Louie:

There’s no doubt in my mind that Louie will someday become the richest duck in the world and I think he will get that title by a bunch of smart (and ethical) business decisions and help from his family. I never really was a fan of “Louie becomes Scrooge’s heir” because I don’t like the idea of Louie just inheriting a bunch of money to become rich

Like Scrooge, I can see Louie owning a bunch of different companies, but his most well-known company would be Louie’s Kids™️ which would be a for-real charity that helps needy kids

Louie may not do much adventuring compared to his two brothers but I still like to think he helps fund things for his family’s adventuring needs (especially when if it will help give his companies a profit). Also I like to think Della Duck becomes his personal pilot/driver/body guard in case an unexpected adventure pops up on him

You know part of me is sad that I’m separating the boys for their futures, but sometimes life has different plans for each of us. Obviously they still keep in touch with one another, visit one another, and sometimes cross paths while on their own adventures

[shychick-52]

Plenty of people have said it was a missed opportunity for Boyd and Lena to interact in season 3, because of how similar their experiences were (both victims of child exploitation in a sense, both meant purely as pawns for evil by the adults who created them- well, Gyro mostly created Boyd, but Akita corrupted his programming to turn him into a killer robot- both alone and deprived of a normal childhood until they met their respective best friend who helped change their lives).

But I've never seen anyone talk about the parallels between Webby and Boyd. In some ways, they're quite similar too. Both very outgoing, friendly, and eager to make new friends, curious and bright-eyed about the world around them, both quite autistic-coded, both quite socially awkward (only Webby's awkwardness is more from her desperation to fit in and belong, as well as her intense excitableness and hyperactiveness, whereas Boyd's awkwardness is more from his stilted mannerisms), and both never had the opportunity to have friends and live like normal kids for so long until Huey/Huey, Dewey, and Louie (respectively) came into their lives.

And @astro-duck even pointed out they have very similar greetings: "Hi, I'm Webby! / "Hi, I'm Boyd- a definitely real boy!"

Honestly, tho, I think Webby would tell Boyd he's had it far worse- being essentially alone for twenty years, finding himself owned and controlled by countless people, having his programming overwritten countless times, never being seen as a real child or given the chance to live free and make his own choices (basically, Boyd was always a slave and never had anyone care about him since Gyro; even Doofus's parents basically used him for their newfound freedom and wealth). At least Webby always had Beakley, as flawed as she was in her upbringing of her, to keep her safe and love her.

Still, it's a neat comparison too! I made a similar comparison in this post.

Mickey and Friends Age Poll Results

So I sent out about 6 polls asking you all what ages you generally saw the different Mickey Mouse and Friends characters in either the comics, shorts, etc.

I was interested because none of the mediums really clarify ages (Unless they are specifically kids) and keep it vague so I wanted to see what vibes each character (or set of characters) gave. For research reasons.

So here are the results of the Poll and my own thoughts:

Mickey Mouse (120 votes)

Most People see him as... Mid 20's - Early 30's

Seems like just barely over half see Mickey as in his Mid 20's to Early 30's with a quarter seeing Mickey in his Early Adult - Mid 20's. As you can see, I completely agree with the majority. As others have said on the original poll, this Mid 20's to Early 30's is sort of that perfect sweet spot where you are clearly an adult and have and have had responsibilities for quite a while, but you aren't really an expert in anything yet and still trying to find your place in the world.

Mickey tends to reflect this mentality well as he clearly has his own house, can work, and must being paying bills. But he is also usually in a subordinate or student role. Usually the mentee instead of the mentor.

Minnie Mouse (30 votes)

Most People see her as... Mid 20's - Early 30's

This and the following polls got way less votes than the Mickey one (this one got only 1/4 of the same voting size), but I still think the results are interesting to talk about. I considered combining Mickey and Minnie since I feel like most people assume they are the same age or at least very close, but I changed my mind as I really wanted to see if that was the case and based on the poll... That does seem to be the case. Most people agreed that Minnie was in her Mid 20's - Early 30's, even more than Mickey at over 60%.

I know people tend to see or make female counterparts younger than males, so I am glad to see that people see Minnie at about the same age (Then again there is quite a bit of range). I also think it is interesting that the amounts for the other options were generally about the same as the Mickey poll (With even 30's - 40's being at the same exact %)

I, of course, agree with the majority as Minnie seems to be in the same age range as Mickey in terms of clearly having settled a bit as an adult, but still growing and trying to find her place in the world.

Donald and Daisy Duck (51 votes)

Most people see them as... Mid 20's - Early 30's

So the reason I combined Donald and Daisy is for the same reason I was about to combine Mickey and Minnie. I feel like most people see them as generally the same age and if they would have gotten drastically different results, it would have shown up on the Minnie and Mickey poll (I also just didn't want to make way too many polls). But as we saw with that one, there weren't really any changes with gender, so I assume it would have been the same here.

Seems like most people also see Daisy and Donald in their Mid 20's to Early 30's just like Mickey and Minnie. Over 60% of people agreed. I also agree, as I really see them as not really being that much older or younger than Mickey and Minnie, so feel like they should be in the same age range.

What I really think is interesting though is that when it comes to the other options, more people tend to lean more to 30's - 40's at over 25% instead of Early Adult - Mid 20's. Which wasn't the case for Mickey and Minnie. I think part of the reason is that Donald specifically tends to be put in more parental roles than the others. While they all have nieces and nephews, Donald has had quite a bit of media where he is the one who clearly has custody over Huey, Dewey, and Louie and takes care of them. I think that tends to push people to view him as more mature. Someone even mentioned that Ducktales '17 Donald is apparently canonically in his mid-30's, which probably influenced some of the vote.

And honestly, I can see that. I feel like when Donald is on his own or if his relationship with the boys is limited as just uncle and nephews who visit sometimes, I can see him being a bit younger. But if he is actually the one raising them, I can see him as a bit older.

Goofy (26 votes)

Most people see him as... 30's - 40's

So I am actually a bit surprised by this one. Because I actually didn't expect so many people to agree with me on the 30's - 40's. And over 65% did. It seems like over 80% see him as at least over 30 (First of his friends to have people vote 40's - 50's). With less than 20% seeing him in the same age range as the others. It appears that most people in general see Goofy as older.

I always saw Goofy as maybe about 5 - 10 years older than the others. I think part of it is his personality. While he is... Well, Goofy. He is also pretty wise and seems to have a bit more understanding or experience than the others. I don't know how to explain it, but he feels a bit more mature than Donald and Mickey at times.

It also helps that he is the one who is usually seen with the oldest child. Usually, Donald's Nephews are about 8 - 12, with a few rare exceptions of teens. Goofy, on the other hand, has been seeing Max as 11, 14, 16, and as a college student a couple of times each.

Pete (24 Votes)

Most people see him as... 40's - 50's

So this one was pretty close as it seems like mostly everyone agrees that he is between 30's - 50's. But it was kind of close on which set of decades he is in. Though more people, almost 55%, believed that he is in the 40's - 50's range, and I agree.

Pete definitely comes across as a character who has a lot of history. Whether it is his more weathered gruffer looks or that he usually tends to be in authority senior roles (landlords, bosses, etc.) and similar to Goofy he also had a teenage/college-age son. I guess the big difference is whether people believe he is in the same range as Goofy or older. I actually don't think he is too much older than Goofy (Between 5 - 10), but he definitely tends to give off almost middle-aged, starting to have a mid-life crisis energy to me. And it seems like more people lean that way too. But I also could see him closer to Goofy's age.

The Phantom Blot (38 Votes)

Most people see him as... 30's - 40's

This was one I was really interested in seeing how people felt, since I feel like Blot doesn't have as clear age markers as the others and his age might depend on a variety of factors. This is the only time where I apparently went against the grain as I saw him as in the 40's - 50's where over 65% saw him in his 30's - 40's. Seems like almost 95% see him as definitely over 30% with about 2 votes seeing him as possibly in his mid 20's - 30's (I talked with someone who had this view and it is really interesting)

So from my perspective, I guess I saw the Phantom Blot as older because he sometimes gives me almost mid-life crisis vibes. I think this does depend on the comics you watched, but sometimes he feels like he is trying to remain relevant and do something meaningful before your life ends, which I feel tends to happen as you get closer to 50. He also in general just seems very knowledgeable and skilled which you get from experience.

But then again, I can also completely see where everyone else is coming from. Blot also in many appearances seems to be at his prime where he is old enough to be skilled and have experience, but still young enough to have a sharp mind and be in good physical shape. It would make sense for him to be in his prime and thus his most dangerous. Honestly I guess it depends on how you see the Blot and both can work.

~

And that is all of the characters and their ages. Seems like I generally agreed with the majority except for the Phantom Blot. Which is better than I expected. I kind of wonder if I should have added more tags as some of the voting pools were much smaller than the others. Also in retrospect, I wonder if I separated Daisy and Donald if Daisy would have polled younger since similar to Mickey and Minnie she doesn't really raise her nieces like Donald does.

I would love to hear your thoughts.

But for fun, if you were to put them in order from Oldest to Youngest (And going off the Percentage Trends)

Pete (Funny since he is actually the oldest character in real life)

Duck Avenger (Paperinik) and Double Duck - Kay K and Lyla Lay meet Donald's family - Duckvember - Agent, Adventurous and Curious Duck (Ducks)

I haven't drawn Duck Avenger and Double Duck for a long time, and I will be doing more of this in the future. Of course, it's not the first time I've drawn them together, you can check out my previous drawing from almost two years ago: https://ducklooney.tumblr.com/post/672690086039715840/duck-avenger-paperinik-pk-and-double-duck-pk

I certainly drew as a redraw from the genius artist Paolo Mottura who drew as a poster for the Pk Timecrime DD comic from 2016 which was a great crossover of Double Duck (secret super spy Donald working for The Agency) and Duck Avenger (PKNA version, again Donald as a superhero) where they fight against The Organization and criminals. Yes, this comic besides being drawn by Paolo Mottura, this comic was written by Francesco Artibani. Yes, Lyla Lay (journalist and android who comes from the future and works for the Time Police against The Organization) and Kay K (Arianne Konnery, that is, Arianna Adelaide and a well-known partner of Double Duck and works for The Agency) meet together. By the way, I recommend reading this comic as it's great, especially if you're a fan of Duck Avenger and Double Duck.

Yes, the first drawing is a redraw from the poster I mentioned, where they are fighting to protect Duckburg from the villains (although my background is not very good for me unfortunately, sorry). The second drawing is the meeting of Kay K and Lyla Lay, who are Donald's partners with Donald's family, primarily his nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie. Yes, I love when they are Donald's love partners (sorry Daisy), since they act together, and understand him a lot, even though Donald doesn't reveal his secret identities to them. Yes, I drew more in the Quack Pack version (and it's also part of my Quack Pack AU), since I think the dynamics and action, as well as some extreme conditions and adventures from the Italian comics are almost Quack Pack, with Quack Pack being more comedy. Yes, there's also Daisy Duck, who is definitely mad at Donald for bringing those beautiful ladies to their house. Yeah, as good as the Quack Pack version of Daisy is, she somehow can't get the jealousy out of her, it's still typical Daisy that she doesn't like competition, but she'd definitely be on great terms with them, especially Lyla, since they're both reporters. And as for HDL, I think they would get along great and go on adventures with them, with Huey going with Kay and Donald, and Dewey and Louie with Lyla Lay and Donald.

I hope you like these drawings and these ideas and feel free to like and reblog, but don't use these ideas without my permission and my mention. And don't put in the SHIP tag as far as between Donald's nephews and Kay and Lyla, since they are still children, despite being teenagers, and Kay and Lyla are adults. You can SHIP (OTP) between Donald and Kay as well as between Donald and Lyla, since they are definitely related. Thank you!

[captainzigo]

HDL as adults

huey has an old red truck that he has named something like cherri. and it sometimes doesn’t start. and he maybe pulls around a little camper trailer that might be his home

huey is technically homeless in one way or another

i think he’s the groundskeeper for a natural park or something. he probably just lives there

turbo (dewey) has several vehicles and none of them are cars. mostly i think she would use her sea plane to get places. it might be funny if she showed up to places in heavy vehicles from her work. like forklifts

i think she lives in an airfield that is also her work. either in the corner of the actual hanger, or in like a tiny tiny house comically in the center of the complex

she owns a company that flys the aircraft in movies and tv and such.

louie owns a something-million dollar luxury car that is perpetually on the bed of a truck that he actually drives. in the same way that people will take off their expensive shoes before walking in mud

he lives in a penthouse in downtown duckberg with his cat(s). it is scarcely decorated, and furnished like a commercial

his business ventures are varied and confusing. he would do really technical business stuff that is incomprehensible to the layperson

Headcanon of Dugan Duck

He is 6 years old (he is 6-7 years younger than the triplets).

His birthday is May (referring to his official publication date)

He has a great affection for his father, who raised him since he hatched from the egg.

His mother is Donna Duck, she abandoned him when he was an egg (that part will be explored later) and that, Dugan generated a rejection towards her.

He has respect for Della, since he imagines her as the mother he wanted to have. Although he loves Clara Cluck, who is his mother figure and sometimes calls her mother Clara.

He gets along well with the triplets, especially with Huey, who sees him as a big brother; with Dewey, they have a little rivalry, but they get along well and play a lot; with Louie, he teases him with jokes, although he admits he likes him and Louie accepts his games.

With Webby, they don't get along. He sees her as annoying and stuck up; while she makes it hard for him to have a nice time and tries hard.

The only uncle he respects is Donald, with Gladstone he sees him as pathetic and Fethry (his direct uncle) as a raving lunatic and still doesn't believe he is of the same family, although Fethry showed affection when he learned he has a direct nephew. With Scrooge, he doesn't like him, because of his dad.

He loves physical activities, especially baseball, nicknaming himself "Whitewater jr."

His only friend is Cintia, he is already very fighty with other children.

She is Cintia (for those who wonder, she appeared in the comics, although very little).

He has absurd strength, due to training with his father; it is enhanced by his carrying his baseball bat.

The only adults he respects are: His father (Abner), Clara Cluck, Della, Donald, The Captain (until "a certain thing" happens) and Ajax, the gorilla (because he is his dad's friend).

Its representative color is yellow (referring to Phooey's available position).

He wears a cap with pompoms because his father told him he looked good and smiled at him. Also because of a birthmark on the back of his head that embarrasses him.

That would be all, for now. There may be more. I hope you like these headcanon, any doubt you can write me.

Pizza Day, Leap Day and Donald and Daisy eat spaghetti - Quack Pack Week - Food and Drink - Quack Pack AU - Duckverse

Although I'm late, I wish everyone a happy Leap Day, which is usually every fourth year, on February 29. To everyone celebrating their birthday then, happy birthday! Also, although I'm late, I definitely drew something related to Pizza Day, which is celebrated on January 17th and February 9th. Yes, I drew two drawings related to Quack Pack Week and they were on the subject of food and drink.

The first drawing is a redraw from a scene from the movie "Lady and the Tramp", only Donald and Daisy are eating spaghetti in a Duckburg restaurant, while their nephews and nieces are playing various musical instruments and singing a song around them. Probably this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbzEOQLOAWw

Huey plays the guitar, Dewey plays the electric piano, Louie plays the accordion, April plays the harmonica, May plays the violin and June plays the Chitarra battente to enhance the romance between Donald and Daisy Duck, that is, their uncle and aunt. And Donald and Daisy look happy. My only apology is that I made a mistake when I accidentally tore the given drawing so I put it together with masking tape.

The second drawing is about eating pizza and drinking juice and having fun in the duck family. And there are guests from St. Canard. Yes, they eat sausage pizza, vegetarian pizza, margarita pizza and mushroom pizza and what not. There are mostly Duck teenagers like Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, April, May and June Duck, Gosalyn Mallard, Honker Muddlefoot and Webby Vanderquack. And there are adults like Donald, Daisy Duck, Drake Mallard, Gus Goose, Fethry Duck and Gladstone Gander as well as two boys, Dugan Duck (Fethry's nephew) and Shamrock Gander (Gladstone's nephew). And everyone is having fun. And this is how I envision them in my Quack Pack AU.

I wish everyone a happy leap day as well as pizza day, and this is also related to Quack Pack Week, @quackpackweek. Also, feel free to like and reblog this, but please don't copy my same ideas and versions without mentioning me. Thank you!

[owladaptive]

Pls share your thoughts on Huey Duck I would eat them up so fast

Hello yes I would like to talk about him.

Huey's sweet and kind and responsible and everything but I also think sometimes he will be pretty insufferable when he puts on his know-it-all hat and you know what good for him.

On that note; I'm pretty sure while Huey is absolutely a balm on the salty wound left open after having so many gratingly sarcastic and rude characters be the foremost autistic representation in media.... the kid's probably got a mean streak buried somewhere in there next to The Duke. Like I don't think he'd take a hard insult to his intelligence or anyone in his family lying down. And he wouldn't play nice with someone who really deserved a dressing-down I don't think.

I'm talking cutting words. Biting. He's smart, he could have some truly nasty comebacks locked and loaded for whenever a day comes that someone makes him mad enough.

In this interaction,

Huey says "are you really going to let our family get hurt because you're afraid to get hurt?" And I love it. It's kind of blink-and-you'll-miss-it because the scene immediately turns into a mad dash toward the sounds of lasers firing, but I caught it the other day and it stuck with me.

In moments like these, where a member of the main cast is put in the role of an advisor or counselor, we actually get a glimpse of their own psyche (when it's well-written and in character), as they attempt to transfer what they believe is The Right Thing To Do into the mind of the advisee. In this instance we, briefly, hear Huey speak one of his own core values. He speaks this idea of putting service/care to your family before your own means - before your own goals, discomfort, fears or limitations. Dare I say it's even a little sacrificial?

This message Huey presents is founded upon all of his strongest traits: responsibility, empathy, rationality and maturity. And for that reason (the coolest thing) this message Huey gives to Louie has a subtle through-line from the beginning of the show all the way to the end. Mt Neverrest is a strong example for this message being one of Huey's core values; wherein he instantly abandoned his personal quest to ensure the family's safety. And it pops up in so many little moments upon rewatching episodes.

I just think it's neat.

I think Huey's sadly not as strong a fighter as Dewey or Webby, about on par with Louie most of the time despite his y'know. Internal rage. He's saved by his quick thinking and ability to take advantage of any openings his calculating little science eyes spot.

But I also think branching off from that idea that Huey is a bloody dirty fighter and when I say he "takes advantage" I mean there will be zero hesitation. Sure, he can't fight in long, drawn-out brawls super well because 1 he's a little book boy and 2 he just doesn't have the spirit for fighting. But what he does have is logic - and not a lot of time to plan. So if Logic says that he only has a three fifths of a second to dig his fingers into this undead swordsman's eyes and pull out his optic nerves before he runs somebody through with his deadly sword than. You know. He does that.

And he DOESN'T get wrestling so he'd absolutely get disqualified or something for doing some crazy non-wrestling stunt like idk kicking someone in the throat.

Speaking of sports, we know Huey tried to get into football it seems and oh boy idk if that would have worked out well for him if he was in any position other than being the water boy. He'd either have panicked and gotten trampled or Duked out and gotten suspended..... tbh it more likely would have been the first.

We don't talk enough about how Huey sits at the proverbial "adult's table" in the family a lot of the time. Sure all the kids are treated as equals in skill and value by the adults but Huey's behind closed doors with the grownups, in the finale, the other kids actively being excluded from the planning circle he gets special privilege to be a part of like ISN'T THAT A BIT TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY?? He's a child???? Speaking as someone who used to be "the reliable/good/peace-keeping child" of my extended family, it can get pretty isolating being the one the adults trust the most with "important" business. I actually have a fic idea aaaaaaall about this that I started writing a while ago and I really want to finish it some day.

That's about all I could think of for the moment.... I've been dying to talk about some of this stuff, so thank you!

[paw-present]

I was doing some Della studies.

Because I want to draw her better…

…anddd because I wanted draw the adult triplets more accurate…

…so…

I drew ✨ them ✨

On this last day of 2023, I come bearing gifts! @goldiejake11, I am your secret Santa! @duckblrsecretsanta2023

Scrooge and Goldie aren’t my strong suit, but I did my best and had some fun with it! Hope you enjoy! Without further ado,

Break-ins and Lock-ins and Plot Twists, Oh my! (1288 words)

Goldie stands on the grounds of McDuck Manor one early fall morning, the sun’s light only just starting to peek over the horizon, and pulls out her phone to double check where she needs to go.

Louie had called her a few days earlier with a scheme, and asked if she’d be in town that day. She would, and plans were made to meet up early that morning and be just a little richer by the end of the day.

Sharpie

I’ll be waiting upstairs in the manor

Fifth window to the right of the

main door if you want to get in that

way

She didn’t quite get why Louie insisted on waiting inside, but she did always get a kick out of breaking into ol’ Scroogie’s house (as did her bank account), so she didn’t mind.

She climbs a tree which, conveniently for her, was right next to the window she was breaking into and gets into position so she could reach the window without any of the branches breaking.

Next, she starts to pry the window open with a small wedge. As she expects, it goes quite quickly, and she slips inside.

“You’d think he’d get more secure windows, as paranoid as he gets. He must just like making it easier for me!”

She scans the room for anything valuable she could snag, momentarily forgetting about Louie. As she pockets a little gold stautette she remembers why she’s here and realizes that Louie wasn’t where he said he’d be.

She whips out her phone again and begins typing to ask Louie “where the hell he was” but is interrupted when the door opens.

“Scroogie?!”

“Goldie?! What in the blazes are ye doing in me house at 5:30 in the morning?”

“Sharpie told me to be here!”

Suddenly the door slams shut behind the pair and the lock clicks.

“Yes, ‘Sharpie’ did say that, but it was-“ Louie starts to say from the other side of the door before being interrupted by Dewey.

“It was a lie! You two need to confess your feelings!”

Scrooge sighs and rubs the bridge of his nose.

“Huey, are ye there too?”

No response comes from the other side of the door other than shuffling feet and the creaking floor.

“Boys, whose idea was this?” Scrooge tries again.

The triplets all overlap with each other’s names and Scrooge and Goldie both roll their eyes.

“Ya think they got the girl in on this too?” Goldie wonders.

“Aye, Webby! They probably did, those pernicious pranksters,” Scrooge says.

Suddenly the window Goldie snuck in through clicks shut with a blue glow, and Webby and Lena float up on the other side of the window.

“Hi, Dad!” Webby exclaims, waving.

“Have fun in there, oldies!” Lena snarks before the other trio slowly falls back down to the ground.

Both adults pause momentarily before Goldie speaks up.

“First, how dare that girl call me old?! And second, who on earth is that and why is she skilled a magician?!”

“Well, she called ye old because ye are old-“

“You say as if you aren’t older.”

“We’re basically the same age an’ ye know it!”

“Whatever you say, old man.”

The petty squabble is suddenly interrupted by a chorus of Ooohs from the other side of the door.

“Boys!” Scrooge and Goldie shout in unison.

Scrooge sighs again before continuing.

“ANYways, you’ve broken into me house enough times in the last couple years to know who Lena is, I know ye have.” He adds “Unless your memory’s starting to slip,” under his breath.

“Or yours,” Goldie teases back.

Scrooge laughs, “All these years and you’re still ‘killing my vibe, man.’”

“All those years and you still let me kill it.”

Suddenly they hear a faint beep of a phone camera stopping taking video.

“Llewellyn… whatever your middle name is Duck, I swear ta all the gods I know, if ye were just recording that conversation!”

Louie and Dewey laugh and crack the door open to show them a video. Louie presses play and…

The sound plays again.

“Tricked ya!” he says, laughing again. “I didn’t- no, I don’t want- go away, ads!” Louie struggles with his phone for a moment, trying to make it stop playing ads at him and ruining his genius prank.” Ugh, finally. Anyways, I didn’t actually record anything.”

Scrooge tries to grab the door, but it closes again, just fast enough to keep him inside. | But try as he might, the door wouldn’t budge.

————————————————————————

Scrooge grumbles and lets go of the doorknob once again, still having no luck escaping.

“Scroogie, just face it already, we can’t get out of here like that,” Goldie sighs, watching him from the center of the room. “We saw the window get magically reinforced and I can only assume the door is too. I know you wouldn’t dare to actually spend your money and buy stronger doorknobs.”

“How do you propose we get out of here then?” Scrooge asks, admitting defeat.

His choice of words sparks an idea in Goldie’s mind, and a sly, proud smile appears on her face.

“I propose that we give the kids what they want- if they hear a confession of feelings, then they’ll be happy and we can go on with our lives as though this never happened.” Goldie explains.

“Ah, okay,” Scrooge says. “Put on a little lovey-dovey act, trick the kids, and get you out of my house. Got it.”

“We’ll have to be careful to sound as genuine as possible though, I wouldn’t be surprised if Sharpie thought of us doing this,” Goldie warns.

“Bah, don’t worry about that! If anything, I can act better than ye,” Scrooge gloats, donning a flirtatious smirk- to help warm up his acting, of course.

“Sure you can,” Goldie teases back. “Now, remind me which one of us had to pretend to flirt with Rockerduck back in Gumption?”

“Ah could’ve done that just as well as you if it would’ve worked, an’ ye know it!”

“Whatever helps you sleep at night.”

“Our escapades havenae a bit of sway over my slee-“

Suddenly, the door creaks open, stopping the pair’s squabble in its tracks.

“I felt guilty about helping to basically hold you guys hostage, so I waited for Dewey and Louie to leave and convinced Lena she could leave the door unenforced,” Huey begins to anxiously rattle off. “Also being stuck in an empty room is not the optimal condition for love confessions, it doesn’t meet hardly any of the JWG’s criteria- uh, but anyways, you guys can go.”

The adults stare blankly at Huey for a moment, processing the boy’s fast-paced speech before coming back to their senses.

“Eh, thank ye, Huey,” Scrooge replies. Then he turns to Goldie.

“Ye can leave me house now,” he says, gesturing to the nearest exit.

Goldie briefly follows Scrooge’s direction before turning into the next room and breaking the lock on that window. As she begins to climb out and into the same tree she entered with, she exclaims, “Bye, Scroogie! See you around!”

Scrooge rolls his eyes and smiles, before replying, “If ye’d like to repay me for the broken window locks, ye could return that statuette yer tryin’ ta steal.”

“Agh, I almost got away with it!” She groans as she hands the bauble over.

“Ye try to steal something every time ye visit, Ah knew there had ta be somethin’,” Scrooge retorts. A moment of silence passes before Scrooge sighs and says “Bye, Goldie.”

“Bye, Scroogie.”

They kiss just before Goldie jumps and Scrooge turns to leave, neither realizing they had unintentionally given the kids exactly what they had wanted out of this whole situation until several minutes later.

The House of Mouse au, but Yuu has it take over the show.

Something, maybe a magical mishap or Pete's meddling, makes Mickey and the others go missing. Yuu, Max, Huey, Dewey,and Louie can't find any of the adult staff. Pete comes in and goes, " Well if there's no show then there's no club, and I'll have to shut it down."

Only for Yuu to tell him no. There will be a show. They still have a full audience and the schedule and they can make it work until they find the missing staff. After Pete leaves for now, Max asks who's going to host, which Yuu replies that she will do it and she will call in some favors to help.

The audience is surprised to see Yuu on stage welcoming them to the House of Mouse, but even more surprised to see her NRC friends working as well. Jack and the Tweels are waiting tables. Sebek is yelling "WELCOME TO THE CLUB!" at the entrance. Idia and Ortho are in Horace's booth doing all the tech work while Ace and Deuce are doing Minnie and Daisy's jobs.

Pete is pissed that he can't shut down the club with everything running smoothly but that won't stop him from trying to sabotage the show.

He is a weird huge monkey man with daddy issues. What’s not to love 

Spaceboy!

Della Duck

just look at her shes badass she amputated her own leg and made a prosthetic out of spare rocket parts shes not perfect but shes trying her goddamn best to be a good mother okay she is The character ever

greatest character of all time!

dear tournament runner i am so so sorry for the essay i'm about to write but i am not normal about my girl della

della duck is donald duck's twin sister and huey dewey and louie's mother

the whole history behind her is so interesting bc she unintentionally became the greatest mystery of the disney duck comic verse

one of disney's many weird rules is that their main 6 characters are not allowed to have children or parents. this rule is kinda wobbly in the sense that on one hand, it does get broken (goofy has a son in some canons & donalds mother is shown in some comics (though only in scrooge's flashbacks, she's never allowed to interact with donald)), on the other hand, it also tends to sometimes get applied to characters who are not part of the main 6 but still main characters. this rule meant, that when they wanted their main characters to interact with kids, they invented nieces and nephews. which had the added bonus that when they wanted to stories without them, they didn't have to explain the kids' absence (like for example mickey's nephews, which barely ever appear and, fun fact, were actually invented before huey dewey and louie). so, in one newspaper comic strip, huey dewey and louie were introduced and with them, della was mentioned for the first time, in a letter asking donald to take care care of the boys while their father is in a hospital from a prank they pulled. (said father was never mentioned again btw.)

after that, della didn't appear again for a while, and several shorts and comics revealed that donald has legally adopted the kids. different comics implied that donald has been taking care of the triplets their entire life, instead of just since recently like in their first appearance.

later comics actually showed della for the first time - however, only in flashbacks to donald's childhood. these comics also made her donald's twin. the only piece of media that showed her as an adult was her portrait in the duck family tree.

that is, until 2014 the first comic showing adult della and her fate was released - a dutch comic that was only reprinted in brazil, germany and the netherlands, and even in those countries, anything containing this story is pretty hard to get. it was never officially translated to english (thank god for fantranslations, tho). this comic showed della as a pilot, who tested a rocket and got lost in space when huey dewey and louie were babies. this is where her association with space and a lot of her ducktales 2017 characterisation originates from.

so, let's get into her biggest ever appearence - the ducktales reboot!

from the very beginning of this show, she's set up as the big overarching mystery - a little bit like the author from gravity falls. the pilot ends with dewey discovering a painting of her. it's a very shocking moment and for most viewers the first time they've ever seen della.

so like in the comic, she's a pilot, and she's been going on adventures with donald and scrooge for years. scrooge builds a rocket for her as a surprise gift for when her children hatch but she finds out about it and decides to take it for a test ride, during which she crashes it on the moon. so, she's stuck there, but nothing can stop della duck! she spends the entire 10 years fixing the rocket until she finally manages to get back to earth to her kids.

della is funny, strong, determined and just one of the best characters in the entire show. and she tries so hard to be a good mom to her kids after being absent for a decade even though she struggles so much to adjust back to life on earth.

i just love della so so much
