Happy International Women's Day 2025!!

[i-legit-dont-know-what-im-doing]

How Friendship Hates Magic would go in my “HDLW grow up with their Duck Cousins counterparts” AU (It is recommended that you read What Ever Happened to Della Duck (link to post), The Golden Spear (link to post), and Nothing Can Stop Della Duck (link to post) first for the Webby introductions because she is in this one):

The episode starts with Dewey taking Webby to the library •  When discussing their lives the Shadow Wars (Part 1, Part 2) were brought up and Dewey told her about Lena and how she had become a shadow and he showed her the books he had gotten to research ways to bring her back •  Webby asked if she could help him and he immediately agreed because he rarely gets to spend time with kids his age

Neither of them notices that Dewey’s shadow seems to have glowing eyes on occasion

Lena follows them around, boredly narrating Dewey’s routine although clearly bothered by the fact that Webby’s there now •  She makes several vague threats of what will happen if Webby is lying about who she is and where she’s been and tries to hurt Dewey since they were practically like brother and sister before she got banished to the shadow realm, but of course neither of the younger ducks can hear her •  Important Note: Lena and Dewey are 1000000% platonic in this, they see each other more as siblings. Any jealousy Lena shows towards Webby and Violet in this is purely because she doesn’t want them taking her place as Dewey’s best friend. He was her first friend and the first person to show her that how Magica treated her was wrong so she’s a bit possessive. Same reason for why she’s possessive of Webby in the show (although I know some people view them as romantic which is why I’m making it clear that here she and Dewey are platonic)

They go to ask for the book, finding Quackfaster working there, and Lena attempts to convince herself Dewey that she’ll be fine in the shadow realm

Quackfaster says they can’t have the book since someone else has already checked it out and points them to a purple hummingbird sitting at a nearby desk

Webby, without hesitation, goes to try and introduce herself only to be stopped by the girl putting up her hand, finishing her page, and finally putting the book down to see what Webby wants

She points out that the book is written in Ancient Syriac and might be a little advanced

To which the girl responds with “So am I,” in perfect Ancient Syriac

Dewey gasps and runs over and, in Ancient Syriac says, “You speak Ancient Syriac? Me, too! Along with Conversational Akkadian.” •  Scrooge and Beakley had several old language books laying around and Dewey was barely allowed out of the manor for the first ten years of his life so he had a lot of time to pick up the languages •  Although, his speech is slightly less coherent that Webby’s is in the show

The girl confirms she knows it and pulls out some old Norse and Dewey responds in kind

Webby jumps in with, “I know some Moon Landrian!” and gets some confused looks before the other girl just nods, and stands to introduce herself to Dewey and Webby •  I don’t know if the Moon Landers have a language in the show or what it’s called so I’ve decided they do and it’s Moon Landrian

Violet instantly recognizes Dewey as Turbo Dewford Duck of McDuck Manor, trusted companion in many of Scrooge McDuck’s adventures and his great nephew to boot

Dewey instantly confirms and asks if she’s a fan before remembering Webby and introducing her as, “Webbigail Vanderquack of McDuck Manor, trusted companion of his mother Della Duck while on the moon.

”Webby tacks on “Granddaughter of the Housekeeper.” at the end

Lena is immediately suspicious and wants to just grab the book and go, and is only made more suspicious when Violet starts asking about Dewey’s experiences with the supernatural

Lena is especially not happy when they end up planning a sleepover

Beakley is glad for a quiet night in with her tea when Webby and Dewey come bouncing into the dining room to tell her all about their sleepover

She’s happy that Dewey is getting back onto the friendship horse and that both of them are making more friends outside of each other

She’s especially impressed given how Dewey’s previous sleepovers have ended in magic fights

Dewey start to get nervous and Lena hopes that he’ll reconsider and cancel the sleepover with Violet, but Webby says that those sound awesome but she’s sure it will totally be fine this time and they’ll just make sure it’s a completely normal sleepover

She then immediately asks what a normal sleepover entails leading to Dewey panicking and deciding that they need to hide anything mystical, cursed, or adventurous

Beakley assures them that they should just be themselves, and Dewey says that unlike her they need friends •  This leads to the Beakley and Launchpad subplot that I’m not going to cover since it’s essentially the same and also it’s been half an hour since I started and I’m barely five minutes into the episode

Webby and Dewey finished hiding anything strange in Dewey’s room in the attic when they hear the doorbell and rush to get it before Ducksworth because, Ghost Butler

They invite Violet in and Webby is very interested in the pie (she grew up on black licorice gum), Lena however thinks Violet is up to something

When they get to Dewey’s, very empty, room Violet tells them about Tulpas •  “Manifestations of powerful emotions–hatred, jealousy, greed. They live in a dark realm adjacent to our reality.”

She explains that it’s the best explanation she has for what happened during the Shadow War

Dewey quickly interrupts and suggests they play Baggle

Violet points out that she’s here to review the book and Webby points out that they have plenty of time for books and they should play a game or do icebreakers since it’s a sleepover

Violet agrees and instantly asks what they know about Magica DeSpell and the Shadow War

Lena takes Violet asking about Magica as proof she can’t be trusted, but Dewey suggests makeovers to change the subject

Violet points out his weird behavior when it comes to the supernatural and Dewey grabs both of their hands and says that they have sparkles which gets Webby excited enough to help pull Violet along with them for the makeovers

When they leave Lena finds Magica’s amulet in Violets bag and runs to warn Dewey

She finds the three of them doing special effects makeup •  Violet and Webby have their Rakshasa and beaten up looks from the show, Dewey has a sort of zombie thing going on (I honestly don’t know so if anyone else has any ideas for his look let me know)

Violet says she thinks her fangs are off-kilter and Dewey says it’s because he has a crooked fang from a poker brawl and he has proof before realizing he said to much

Violet asks where and Webby panics and says “definitely not in the attic” •  Unfortunately Lena starts to wonder if Webby meant to say that and is actually working with Violet because why would she share her secrets

Violet runs off towards the attic and Dewey and Webby follow with Lena protesting that it’s a trap

Webby asks if Violet is weirded out by all the magical stuff but Violet says it’s fascinating and that she thinks there’s an ectoplasmic aura coming from Dewey’s friendship bracelet

Lena sees Violet touching it and runs over to try and push her hand away but of course she just falls right through them

Dewey quickly assures her that it’s nothing and takes the bracelet off and hides it in his pocket

Violet, Webby, and Dewey decide to play Rune-Baggle and Lena decides to try to use the runes to communicate with Dewey

After Violet repeats an incantation causing the runes to glow Lena attempts to hit them across the room and is shocked to find that it works

Dewey suggests it was nothing but the runes start to move as Lena arranges them

Violet tries to read the runes but Dewey isn’t as quick to jump to that, only moving to translate when Webby asks him about certain parts

Lena is very frustrated and starts thinking that Violet and Webby are either intentionally trying to distract Dewey from the obvious “Don’t Trust Her” message or they’re just giants nerds

Violet has the three of them kneel and hold hands which only makes Lena more upset

However Lena is quickly distracted by spirits beginning to form

She grabs a sheet and tries to use that to communicate but they can’t hear her and assume that she’s an evil spirit summoned by them

Violet tries to attack but is thrown off and into her bag, knocking the amulet free while Lena tries to get Dewey to see what's happening

Violet shoots magic at Lena and reveals her for just long enough for her to call out Dewey’s name

He sees Violet with the amulet  and tackles her to demand to know where she got it

Violet explains how she found it during the Shadow War and how it sparked an interest in the supernatural

She’s asks if they’ve ever felt sheltered when there was something just out of reach and Dewey and Webby each think back to their lonely childhoods spent listening to the stories of the incredible feats that their guardians did before they were born

Lena isn’t happy that Dewey is buying Violet’s spiel but Dewey just tells her not to mess with the amulet since he’s already lost one friend to the Shadow Realm

Webby puts a hand on his shoulder in an effort to comfort and Lena puts one on the hand holding the amulet

Violet suggests that they might be able to bring Lena back using Magica’s amulet

Dewey and Webby agree to try it after a quick shared glance

The trio set up candles for the ritual and sit in the middle of them holding hands with the amulet between them

Lena tries to tell Dewey that Violet’s using him, and she should know, but the amulet starts to levitate and flies into her chest as more spirits form and take the shape of Magica, taunting her

The spirits surround the trio and Lena panics and grabs their joined hands in an attempt to warn Dewey that it’s a trap

The three are pulled into the Shadow Realm and Dewey tackles Lena into a hug when he sees her

Unfortunately Violet and Webby have to break up the reunion on account of all the Tulpas in the form of Magica drawing nearer

Dewey pulls away to try to introduce Lena to the other two but Lena interrupts and accuses them both of being spies and thieves and trying to replace her while the Tulpas surround them

Lena tells Violet and Webby to get away from Dewey only for the Tulpas to take Lena’s form and drag Dewey away from them

Lena, Violet, and Webby run after them and Lena blames Violet, saying that if she hadn’t meddled with magic Dewey would still be safe

Violet points out that the Tulpas are manifestations of great desire to which Lena says it’s Violet’s desire for magical power

Violet shoots back that it could be Lena’s desire not to be forgotten by Dewey and that the Tulpas took Lena’s form

A Tulpa attacks them and Violet says that they’re manifestations of Lena’s jealousy and want to keep Dewey with her

Lena admits that might be the case but tries to keep arguing only for Webby to interject with the fact that even if they have nothing in common they do all care about Dewey, just as he calls for help

Lena and Violet call a truce to chase after him with Webby

The Tulpas try to take him out the door and Violets says that if he leaves the manor they might never get him back

Lena says not on her watch and grabs Violet and Webby’s hands

She begins an incantation:                     “With the hands of my friend’s friends,                      We bring bitter jealousy to its ends.”

The amulet seems to glow in Lena’s chest and Violet and Webby join in and the three walk towards Dewey and the Tulpas as the Shadow Realm seems to fade into the normal world behind them

Dewey’s bracelet starts to glow in his pocket and causes the Shadow Realm to dissipate behind him as well

As the realm fades away it starts to take Lena with it

Dewey starts to tear up and Lena grabs his hand

He reaches out to Violet and Webby and the four join hands and are surrounded by a blue glow as the bracelet rises from Dewey’s pocket and circles them, creating blue smoke clouds

When the smoke dissipates Lena is standing there, back in her normal form and Dewey pulls them all into a group hug

The four return to their sleepover as Lena explains where she’s been

Dewey says that he’s got his old best friend and his new best friends, Webby says they’ve got pie •  The poor girl grew up on black licorice gum she deserves to get excited over pie. And yes, I know I’m the reason she grew up on it, shut up.

I spent nearly two hours on this Jesus Christ. So, the first post I ever made for this AU was made August 1st, 2020, so nearly three years ago. And the post I made for how The House of the Lucky Gander went (link to post) was made August 12th, 2020, so also nearly three years ago and I’ve left them on a cliffhanger for that whole time, but now I only have to get through What Ever Happened to Donald Duck before I can finally do [REDACTED] and I am very excited for both of those things so I am going to try to get there before August 12th this year so you all can finally learn what happened to Louie and Gladstone. I’d also like to do Doomsday Vault sometime since that episode would be extremely different since I left Della on the moon. I am genuinely sorry that it’s taken this long to get here, but as I’ve stated in a previous post the “how __________ would go in my HDLW grow up with their Duck Cousins counterparts AU would go” post take insanely long and a lot of energy because I watch the whole episode and pause for bullet points so that I don’t miss anything. Also, if you are someone who sent me an ask god knows how long ago, I’ve seen it, I know it’s there, I just didn’t have the energy to answer it when I got it and by the time that I did have the energy I had forgotten about them. Hopefully I’ll be able to go through and answer as many asks as I can. And if anyone wants to send me one now, feel free to but it might take me some time to get to it depending on the question.

These 3 characters have the same voice actress.

[gyrofenton]

Fenro is ABUSIVE

I eliminated your first ask but I'm glad you're bitter enough to send a second one. You have had me thinking for weeks, unable to sleep, caught in a spiral of thoughts and I have finally come to a conclusion.

Anon is right. Fenro is ABUSIVE.

Allow me to elaborate:

Gyro's behavior is the result of the traumatic events in Tokyolk, before that he used to be a kind and naive person as it was shown in Boyd's memories. He became sarcastic and distrustful as a way to mask his own insecurities and prevent further damage. Even his inventions that turn evil are a manifestation of his deep-rooted trauma. Imagine the kind of person he would be if he had never worked for Dr. Akita.

Meanwhile Fenton might seem innocent at first glance. Big-hearted, well intentioned, smart but still learning, but overall, he seems like someone who has it together. Except that he is a faker.

Mrs. Beakley is one of the smartest characters in Ducktales and she had her reasons to suspect about Fenton. Are we going to ignore Fenton's crimes against the McDuck family and McDuck Enterprises? Crimes that endangered Gyro and others.

Beakley is a reliable source of information, after all, she belongs to Scrooge's close circle of employees along with Duckworth, Quackfaster, Launchpad and, of course, Gyro. All of them are loyal to Scrooge, something that Fenton is not. Here are the reasons why he is a potential traitor:

Fenton leaked important information about Bulb Tech online, which constitutes a violation of McDuck Enterprises's intellectual property rights and humiliated Gyro in the process.

Fenton stole an untested prototype of the Gizmosuit to put it to the disposition of Waddle. We are talking about theft of private property, endangering the population of Duckburg and compromising Gyro's job since he is the leader of the project, putting him in a similar situation to what happened with the 2BO project.

Fenton also caused a lot of damages to the underwater lab on many times, like in the accident with the Gearloose Monophonic Rail or when he lied about owning his own lab for the sake of a date, where Gyro was kept captured and injured on what should have been a normal day of work for him.

All this also explains why Lil Bulb is in the list of potential traitors, Bulb Tech is no longer a trustful system as Fenton crompromised the integrity of its hardware and software. Evidence of this is how Mark Beaks was able to overwrite his own code in the first prototype of the Gizmosuit, which core was also based on Bulb Tech

And yet, both Gyro and Scrooge, continued to give him a free pass each time without legal consequences.

As someone who also works in a scientific field, I can't understand Fenton's reckless behavior nor justify it as simple mistakes. Beakley is right, he is a traitor who has been sabotaging Gyro's work on purpose. I do not think he is associated with another villains such as F.O.W.L., he works by his own and this is for the pure pleasure of creating chaos. He does not mind hurting Gyro in the process, Fenton is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

In conclusion, Fenro is abusive because Fenton is an abusive person. That is why I am making the compromise to spread this message for the rest of my life the following week.

And now I am inviting more people over to see the truth and hoping for Fenro shippers to wake up.

#Gyro deserves better

Disclaimer: this is obviously a joke, a joke I'm now commited to.

Yall remember that scene in The Great Dime Chase! where Mrs. Quackfaster tells Webby only Scrooge's family can go in the archives?

You think Webby went back after the finale and was like so I get to come in whenever now

[custode-di-colle-fosco]

Translation under cut

Quackfaster: Mr McDuck is very busy today... And terribly nervous!

Donald: Aw, he'll make an exception for me! I'm going to steal him just a few mom...

Scrooge: Steal? Nobody steals anything from Scrooge McDuck!

Miss Quackfaster! What's all this crowd? I asked not to be disturbed!

Quackfaster: Er... There's your nephew, sir, behind the door...

Scrooge: Donald? You don't look much like him, lad!

Donald: You, on the other hand, are always just the same, uncle Scrooge!

Paperinik e la fortuna sotterranea

[rommaru]

Phoebe and Frank are fankids created by my sibling and me. Their story varies from AU to AU but most of the time they are half-siblings (common parent is Gyro/Mad) with a 10 years age gap. Phoebe is the enthusiast extrovert while Frank is the quiet introvert, yet they share a strong bond.

More under the cut.

This is from the AU where they were born, keep in mind that this world takes only a few aspects from canon, there's no F.O.W.L. and Gyro and Fenton have a small age gap.

Gyro went through teenage eggnancy which made his life quite hard but Black Heron plays a mother role for him and helps him to choose what to do. At the end Gyro keeps the egg and there is where Phoebe is born. The bio father is not in the picture.

The next 7 years are a constant struggle trying to raise her alone, dealing with gender identity, poverty and trying to pursue a science career.

Fenton falls for Gyro while they were working on an internship for Dr. Taurus in McDuck Enterprise but Gyro is not interested. Then Fenton chills but doesn't give up, he befriends Phoebe and Gyro starts to warm to him.

Eventually they start dating and Phoebe sees a parental figure in Fenton. Three years later they are married and Francisco is born. Gyro and Fenton are still working for Mr. McDuck and the rest is a slice of life as they rise their children.

In the future, motivated by her neurodivergent sibling, Phoebe becomes a pediatric neurologist and lives in St. Canard with her husband. Meanwhile Frank is still exploring the life of a young adult, taking care of a retired María Cabrera and spending time with their partner Mich.

There is a lot to explore in this AU, reason why it is one of my favorite to RP with my sibling: Black Heron is a good person with a lot of personal problems, Dr. Akita was actually a good mentor, Bradford is still an asshole, Quackfaster dates Magica, Frank is a weird kid, Fenton's past and his friendship with Drake and Panchito, Gyro's path to heal. Honestly, the only normal person in here is Phoebe.

Welcome to part 3! :)

Tier 3: Loose characteristics

Mrs. Beakley

Welcome to the true stretches. First off, Mrs. Beakley, whose secret spy life and martial arts prowess are well documented.

Shadow, pictured here roundhouse kicking Silver the Hedgehog, isn't short on combat technique as well.

He also worked as an agent for G.U.N. (long story, even longer if you have continuity concerns), so you can link that to Beakley's S.H.U.S.H. time even though the organizations really only share the fact that there are dots and capital letters. But shush about all that. Let me have this.

Black Heron & Gandra Dee

The explanation for this is just that they both have robot-like stuff going on. And as established, the whole android clones thing.

One of the too many endings of Shadow '05 is that Shadow is actually an android and takes over the world with his clone army, I think? There's like 300 endings. You can't prove me wrong.

Mrs. Quackfaster

This is literally just the sword. Nothing else connects these characters whatsoever. Fight me. I have two characters with swords. Where's your sword? That's what I thought.

Stay tuned for part 4 where I run out of ideas! :)

Every female Ducktales character is basically Shadow the Hedgehog if you think about it

Happy International Women's Day 2024!!!

Inspired by a dress worn by an ancestor (mother?) of Mrs Quackfaster. I had to draw Magia in the dress. Naturally black, with a raven feather in her hat. Which has the color of Scrooges reboot coat, the hatband also has the same color as his.

Her right hand turns out crap... I hate (drawing) hands ;__;

DICKIE IN DUCKBURG! || 57

An ominous little encounter.

[boingodigitalart]

I’d definitely get along with Goldie, Scrooge, Donald, Huey, Louie, Violet, Webby, Lena, Mrs. Quackfaster and Daisy. 

Which DuckTales (2017) character do you think you’d get along with the most?
