#tammy/fulton

[mstrickster]

In your ships, who's the instigator of most romantic interactions?

Thank you for the ask! Side note I love the title of instigator cuz it sounds devious. Anyways let's go into my ships.

THE MIGHTY DUCKS:

Banksway: I think Charlie is the one who instigates most of the Romantic interactions. He's just used to being the leader. So it comes naturally. Adam can take the lead, but I think it's only in certain situations. Like if he's drunk because I headcanon him as the promiscuous drunk.

Wudoza: I think these two are pretty evenly matched when it comes to who initiates the affection. I do think Luis does so a little bit more. However, that just because he is more extroverted in terms of affection.

Gerreau: It is 100% Guy. Now, this doesn't mean that Connie doesn't instigate any romance. However, I feel like Guy is much more comfortable asking for the romance than she is. However I think he can read her really well so she doesn't really need to ask.

Tammy/Fulton: I totally believe that it's Tammy. She strikes me as somebody who is very strong-willed and will push for what she wants. Therefore, she is in the type of girl to wait for somebody to give her affection. Instead, she probably just walks up to Fulton and grabs his arms and makes him hug her. It's adorable, too.

THE BATFAM:

Birdflash: I can see it being both of them. As fair as the batkids go, I think Dick is the most open about his feelings. Therefore, I don't think he would ever struggle to instigate affection if he wants it. Wally also strikes me as somebody who is more interested in showing rather than telling.

Jayroy: I 100% believe it would be Roy. It's not that Jason can't be affectionate or instigate affection. It's more he doesn't really know if it's appropriate. He hesitates for fear that it will be the wrong time. Where as Roy has limited self-control and has been known to cling to Jason just because Jason was frowning a little more than usual.

Timberkon: Anyone but Tim. I say this because I feel like Tim is the most doubtful of himself. Therefore he wouldn't really want to risk looking ridiculous by instigating anything. So he just kind of waits for everybody else to lead and he follows along. It's a nice little break for him since he has to be a leader in other parts of his life.

StephCass: It's Stephanie, I fully believe it is Stephanie. Nothing against Cass, but due to her upbringing, I think she's very hesitant to initiate anything. Therefore, I think Stephanie would be the one to set the tone and lead. It also allows Cass not to have to analyze movements and to just go with the flow.

Jondami: I'll be honest. I don't think either of them are good at this. However, given his personality, I think Damian would be more likely to initiate affection than Jon. Not that Jon is an affectionate it's more so that he is very self-doubty. Where as Damian knows who he is and knows what he wants and will take what he wants. I mean, this is the person who wanted to take down the other Robins to assert himself as the best. I don't think he would ever struggle with initiating romance. He might not do it in a normal way, but I don't think he'd struggle with it

Thank you for the ask! 💛

Again, loving up some underloved fandoms here on Ciaossu-Imagines, so throwing out some headcanons I have about The Mighty Ducks characters! I hope anyone familiar with these movies will enjoy them!

Starting with Averman, he’s definitely Jewish. I think he and Goldberg are really good friends because both of them are Jewish. They attended Hebrew school together, their parents are good friends, and honestly they really rely on each other around the holiday season. Neither boy is ashamed of being Jewish or anything, but especially around the time period those movies are set, Hannukah was not as popular or as talked about as Christmas was. And when all your friends are talking about Christmas and their plans and the gifts they’ll get and all the celebrations you hear about are Christianity based, it’s hard not to feel a little left out so both boys’ kind of really like having another friend they can talk to about their Hannukah plans who will get it. Bonus headcanon but I think Averman has a bigger love of hockey and was the one to get Goldberg into the sport.

Hot take on Adam – I don’t think he’s this abused kid trying desperately to please Daddy. I think that while his father might have high expectations for Adam, his father isn’t really abusive. I think a lot of the pressure that Adam feels – and boy, does he feel a lot – is pressure that Adam puts on himself. I do see Adam as having some issues with perfectionism, with being way too hard on himself, and he struggles with anxiety and a need to be perfect but it’s because Adam himself knows that he’s got a lot of talent and he doesn’t want to waste that talent.

Charlie’s actually got a few hidden skills but the one that ends up surprising most people is that, at one point in his life, Charlie got really into magic and he’s pretty good with a couple of tricks, mostly sleight of hand stuff.

Tammy did enjoy playing hockey, I won’t pretend that she didn’t. But I think when it came down to it, she enjoyed figure skating a lot more. There was more pageantry in that sport, more creativity and more glamour in her mind and I think she left the Ducks before the second movie because she really did want to focus on figure skating and competing in that area. She did win several medals, but I think she largely left the sport around the time she started college.

Julie reads…for fun. While she loves being active and has various hobbies and interests, she’s been a life-long bookworm. She learned to read early, and gobbles books up. She normally gets through at least a book a week and does read a wide variety of things, though she has guilty pleasure reading that she’d be embarrassed if anyone found out about, such as romance novels and the Hardy Boys books.

Guy hates carrying change around with him. There’s just something about the weight of it and the clinking sound it makes in his pocket as he walks that drives him insane. He prefers to carry bills for cash and usually lets the salespeople keep his change wherever he goes.

Surprising thing about Goldberg…the boy is not only gifted with a green thumb, but he genuinely likes taking care of his plants. He only got them because his parents wouldn’t let him get a pet…they didn’t think he was responsible enough for a pet so they bought him a rather high-maintenance houseplant to take care of first so that he could prove that he could be responsible for another living thing. Turns out that he enjoyed caring for the plant so much, even giving it a name, that he ended up wanting more plants instead of an actual pet.

Jesse has a tendency to argue just for the sake of arguing. He legitimately enjoys arguments and I have this headcanon that he found the debate club during high school and it’s the most at home he’s felt since playing with the Ducks. Like, those are his people, that’s where he belongs. He gets really involved with debate throughout his high school career and I think he wants to go to law school after graduating.

Terry Hall…still hasn’t gotten the grasp of gum honestly. Not saying the kid is stupid, because he certainly isn’t. It’s just that he cannot, for the life of him, remember that gum is for consistent chewing, not eating, especially if the gum in question is a really fruity, sweet flavour.

I really do think that Karp is someone who is really easy to take advantage of. He gets bullied a lot as a kid and he’s someone who just naturally is the kind of person who really wants to make others happy and to have others like him. He’s a very generous friend but the fact that he’s willing to do almost anything to have his ‘friends’ like him means that he gets put into some pretty brutal situations and gets used throughout his childhood and teen years.

I think Peter’s an army brat, or something along those lines. Something tells me that this kid is someone who moves around a lot throughout his life because of his parent’s careers. He’s used to never staying anywhere really long enough to form completely solid relationships. He’s used to always being the new kid and needing to impress and be tough enough to both make friends and avoid bullies. I also think that while he really would like to settle down in one spot long enough to make serious friendships, the idea of doing so kind of scares him.

Luis taught himself how to juggle when he was a kid. He’s also really skilled at hackeysack.

Connie has the habit of pacing around when she’s deep in thought. There’s just something about moving that helps her think better and if she really has something on her mind, she tends to go running or jogging. The tougher the problem is, the faster and further she tends to go as she loses track of where she is or how far she’s gone.

Dean can burp the alphabet. Forwards and backwards. He’s really quite proud of this.

Fulton’s worst habit? He’s really bad at sitting and staying still for long periods of time and he starts fidgeting when he has to do so. He’ll stretch, move around in his seat a bit, crack his knuckles, but the worst is his leg because he’s definitely one of those guys who bounces his leg when he’s bored or restless, almost aggressively so.

Dwayne really likes to sing. He’s not horrible at it by any means, though a little tone-deaf. He’s a huge fan, because of how he was raised, of any older country, with Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, and Conway Twitty being favourites of his.

Russ has the tendency to get cold really easily. It can come out of nowhere too, with no real reason for him to have a chill or to be cold. He just is. He tends to always carry an extra layer with him as a just in case.

Ken has weird eating habits. He has to eat all of one thing before he can allow himself to eat the next thing on his plate. For example, if he has fries and a burger, he’ll have to eat all the burger before he’ll start eating the fries. He can’t bring himself to mix and match his food and not even he knows why.

Any new fic in the works? I love your writing!

aw thanks anon!!! i do have a few things sitting in my drafts that i would love to (attempt to) finish because i miss writing, but i don't really have a lot of motivation as of late.

i do have a lot of ideas, like, i've been dying to explore adam/fulton. there's something about how their first interaction was fulton throwing adam/the hawks in the trash 😭but then they stick together once adam joins the team. like how did that come to be? did they kind of gravitate toward each other because the other ducks have known each other for longer, probably had their inside jokes and stuff, and adam/fulton felt like outsiders? i've always loved how fulton immediately defended adam vs portman in d2 despite the bash bros bonding/becoming friends. also this deleted montage from the D3 script:

FULTON FELT BETRAYED!!! i mean, the ducks all did, probably, but i like how they singled out fulton here. i think it'd be fun to really explore their dynamics but tbh i don't know if i can write them accurately. IDK WE'LL SEE!

[stupidratboii]

@slytherpuff4 @mysemantics

You guys said you wanted to know everything I've noticed about mighty ducks

Here are my thoughts and things I've noticed as of 4/24/23

When they first meet Jesse speaks to Bombay first and claims that "his domain" is a drug free zone

They all thought Bombay has a gun first

Goldberg said he wasn't the goalie for long, he was moving back to Philadelphia

Who dressed these kids.

Connie likes Madonna

The hawks (Adams og team) have the same chant that Orion makes the ducks have in the first half of his coaching

Goldberg hates being a goalie, so why does he do it

Even his team wants a new goalie

Banks is so gay "it'd make great bathroom reading" to a porn mag...c'mon now

Bombays a little funny guy he needs to be so fr

He struggles to say sorry LIKE BFFR 🙄🙄

The only reason the ducks are so good is because Gordon got ducks worth a jersey

Fulton has a lot of rumors going on with him

BOMBAYS COMPLETELY COMFORTABLE WITH DRAGGING FULTON DOWN?! SIR WHAT

Goldbergs jewish

It's always Fulton and Charlie together

Adam has an older brother

QUACK QUACK QUACK QUACK QUACK MR DUCKS WORTH QUACK QUACK QUACK QUACK QUACK

Fulton has really nice handwriting (writing the principal thingy) like really really nice handwriting holy shit

Karp (Tommy) shoving Peter in his locker

BANKS IS SO INSECURE PLEASE HES SO SWEET LEAVE HIM BEEE

ooo the Jessman

Jesse's dad and Charlie's moms friendship is so cute

Guy telling Fulton advice and then winking at connie

Tammy's real mean but she's so cool

Connie and guy holding hands while skating

Fulton and Adam sitting next to each

GUY AND CONNIE HOLDING HANDS (GUY GRABBED HER HAND OMGGG!!)

Adam gets nervous at the sight of his old team

Charlie and Coach cooking together

Charlie's mom used to sculpt and she paints now

She rambles when she's nervous

HEIDI IS SUCH A GOOD MOM 😭😭😭

The driver stays with Bombay the whole season

The ducks in the standing line talking shit

Adam looking away from his old team during the line

Larson (from the hawks) stays with Banks until the paramedics get there

ADAM AND JESSE TALKING DURING THE PARAMEDICS CHECK UP

THE REALIZATION THAT REILLY NO LONGER HAS CONTROL

FULTON OFFERING TO ROCK SOMEONE'S SHIT

FULTONS SLAP SHOTS

HIS CELEBRATION UGH

Fulton flips a guy into the box

"He barely touched em"

Gordon tries out for the minors

That's why he gets hurt in the beginning of d2

Avermans passive aggressive

Coach Orions actor is really good

Fultons actor actually plays more hockey then the rest

Linda is only there for Charlies relationship. She doesn't hold any significance to the story.

Julie's an A student

Dean's wayy nicer to the warriors in D3 than expected

Suddenly in D3, Averman can't stop??? Luis and him switched I guess

Dean's voice gets higher when upset.

Averman does a little dance when dean starts to get undressed in the penalty box

PORTMANS TAKING A DANCE CLASS?

THE ROMANCE BETWEEN JULIE AND SCOOTER WAS UNCALLED FOR AND I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT WHERE DID IT EVEN FUCKIN COME FROM?

Fulton and Portman crushing Orion in a hug

Charlie and his mom just... casually talking next to Luis and some girl swapping spit..

Goldberg suddenly can't (roller) skate in d3 but in D1 they were all Rollin around the mall?

Tommy is never mentioned again

Neither is Tammy

What happened to them?

Did they leave?

What happened to banks?? (His injury)

Kenny's a pessimist

Dean points girls out for Fulton to flirt with?

Wtf happened to Peter?

Charlie tackle hugs Portman after the jv vs v game

Ken was in the Olympics

Russ has an older brother

In d2 Kenny's a fucking menace but in D3 he's all

👉👈🥺 how do I trash talk

Fultons from Stillwater

Goldbergs from Philadelphia, so I wonder who the goalie was before he was there.

FULTON AND DWAYNE HUGGING WHEN THEY WIN THE JUNIOR OLYMPICS

Kenny was there helping Goldberg and Luis prank dwayne

Fulton sucks at flirting

Like literally he's so bad it's insane

Him and Dean laugh about it

It's actually so bad I love him

Why did they change averman and Luis

WHY DID THEY DO THAT TO LUIS OH MY GOD

THEY FUCKED HIM UPPPP

Why is dean like that.

I wonder why Tammy and Tommy's mom wouldn't be happy about hockey

Why was Tammy so mean?

Adam tells people what they can and can't do a lot.

Charlie thinks he'd be a better coach then a player

Goldberg was ab to rock Iceland's shit for calling him big boy and Dwayne and Kenny held him back

Iceland's mechanism is to go for the weak spots and play dirty

THEY HURT ADAMS ARM AGAIN???? HE CANNOT CATCH A BREAK

FULTON SND DEAN SUPPORTING KENNY WHEN HE BEATS THAT ICELAND GUY UP AWWW

THEM JOINING HIM IN THE BOX OMGGG

CONNIES SASSY TURN WHEN SHE TELLS OFF THE ICELAND GUY

RUSS AND CHARLIES FRIENDSHIP<3!!

FULTON AND DWAYNE HUGGING

OMG CHARLIE SETS HIS MARSHMALLOWS ON FIRE!

AVERMANS SINGING 😭😭🙏

Charlie's a Leo

Fulton and Russ looking at each other when doing the team cheer thingy like THE QUACK QUACK QUACK QUACK THINGY

Thanks for the breather AND THEN LINGERING EYES?

GOLDBERG LIKES JULIE MAYBE??

Dean threatening someone's life when he hurts Adams arm

Charlie wears vans?

Dwayne plays guitar!! (D2 end scene!)

When Bombay reads off the names when meeting the kids he says Averman, Dave; Conway, Charlie" was Avermans first name supposed to be Dave

The actor for the principal is the same teacher from d3 (Claudia Wilkens)

Dwayne and Fulton hang out a lot and are really affectionate friends? Like they always go for each other when hugging and stuff. ??? Maybe the actors were just close? Maybe there's more :O

Can you rank all the Ducks? Not on playing, but on personal preference?

hi!!!!!!!!! i love this question <3

charlie conway <3333 love of my life chaotic bisexual with bpd. there is SO much i can say about how much i love and adore charlie, from his writing to jjax's a+ portryal, but charlie is so so special to me for many many reasons. he just turned 14! and! i! think! this! year! he's! gonna! be! mean!

adam <3 i truly don't know how you can just not love adam like he goes from a central antagonist to one of the central protagonists. he's really arguably one of three ducks who has an actual character arc. like can you imagine hawks!adam quitting varsity to play on a team with fucking goldberg? nope.

when i was a kid i loved julie bc i was also a female goaltender. and she's a badass bitch. i love how julie is consistently the (second) best player and she knows it too. she doesn't take any sexist bs. she straight up tells bombay she deserves to play. #GordonBombayHatesWomen "i hate ties, they're like kissing your brother"

this spot was a bit tricky but i think i'm going w jesse. i think it's a testamant to brandon's incredible timing that he's this high. i also think that d1/d2 jesse and d3 charlie are tethered so i think i just like these boys who don't take any shit. also jesse is arguably the funniest duck. SURE IS COWBOY

connie moreau! i'm glad she got more of a voice in d3 and game changers bc i think she's the ultimate GirlBoss. when she just shoves the iclenad player to the ground in d2? queen shit. she's also a fashion icon and i lowkey had a crush on her when i was a kid so what can i say? love that's a state senator and #Moreau2024

russ! i rly wanted to put guy here but i don't think he ultimately does enough. russ adds so much to every scene that he's in. as ridic as the concept of the knucklepuck is, he sells it. and i love how he stands up to charlie in d3 and gives him a reality check!

guy germaine my stay at home dad malewife lesbian coded king <3 the ULTIMATE fashion icon who is just a really smooth player and just so happy to be w connie and loves his friends. "don't push her she's a girl" <3

i love kenny wu, and i love literally any scene where he's being the third bash brother or trying to trash talk. he's also just such a little cutie i don't get how you don't have him in your top 10.

i'm gonna put portman here bc he cracks me up and i just think aaron has rly great delivery and that sells portman for me. i think he could've been omitted from d3 ultimately, but his d2 stuff is just chef's kiss

i went back and forth but i'm gonna put averman just bc he's rly consistently funny and i think he's an underrated character in general

fulton. i don't generally love fulton as much as other ducks fans do, BUT i rly love him in d3

dwayne! what a sweetheart

ugh i cannot STAND goldberg but i think shaun is charismatic enough that goldberg is likable, if that makes sense? but he's just sucha fucking bad player and so arrogant about his "skills" that it knocks him down here.

i'm literally putting terry here just because he's such a lil cutie despite not doing much in d1. oreo line supremacy tho

tammy. original feminist icon and lesbian icon iykyk

shockingly i don't hate peter? i actually think jd gives a good performance (particularly the "i don't need your stinkin' equipment" scene) he's just like irrelevant in the scheme of things

i have a bias against luis bc i don't like mike vitar, but luis is just a misogynist. oops

tommy duncan. like fr name one thing he does and he has like maybe three lines

karp. fuck karp

Wednesday 10/5/22

7 AM -- Brother’s b’day. Old man. Slept well in hospital. Tech comes to wheel Mick to CT scan. Abdominal fluid drainage after. 

Young oncologist comes to room around 8. Mick still not back. I ask questions. Confirms it’s diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. “Doesn’t have B symptoms. Good,” I ask. Explains additional testing will tell us more. Symptoms came on like fright train. 

9 -- Call Mare w/update. She’s leaving for dentist at 9:30. Will call her before if hear anything.

Mare calls, crying. Says she got into accident but is okay. Tractor trailer ran red light & hit her. Holy cow. In ambulance, on way to hospital checkout. I talk to ambulance driver. Says she’s okay.

Called Tammy. She went to hospital to check on her. Had CT, body head. 2 broken ribs. Everything else okay.

Hang around hospital, morning, afternoon. Oncology team finally comes. 3 docs. Allison Winter lead doc. Lymphoma expert. Young, pretty. Has CNY roots. From Corning. Husband from Fulton. Mentions bringing back Dino BBG next time. Sits by bed. Gently explains Mick’s lymphoma, almost childlike. But not condescending. Like her. 

Says Mick will be feeling better by time he leaves. PET scan for staging. Echo cardiogram. Mentions calcium levels high. Having first chemo treatment Friday. RCHOP. Treating with ‘curative intent.’

4 PM -- Head out for walk. Up Euclid. West then East. No bars except Holiday Inn & Intercontinental Hotel. IPA at Holiday Inn. Walked to Case Western Reserve University campus. Quick drink at Courtyard Marriott. Black woman bartender. Comments on my blowpop. Says she wants one. 

Call Schlem from patio. Mare should sue. Value of 2 broken ribs?

Scoth & soda at Intercontinental Inn on return walk.

7:45 -- Back at hospital room. Mick mad. Freaked out. I was out too long. Said it was only going to be 2 hours. 

Hang at hospital. Asleep by 11 pm ish.

How far would your ships make it in 'whamageddon'?

Thank you for your patience, I have been recovering from burnout.

I had no idea what Whamageddon was lol.

I feel like I have a lot of current ships so let me narrow this down to my two main fandoms right now. Mighty Ducks and Batfam!

The Mighty Ducks:

Banksway: I feel like Adam does pretty well. He isn't hugely into Christmas songs so he avoids it for most of the month. However, I feel like once anyone finds out he's playing they start trying to trick him into listening. He makes it to December 22nd. Charlie fails on the first day by accident. He doesn't even realize he is listening to it at first. He was shopping for a gift and his mind wasn't on the radio. He even started humming it.

Connie/Guy: I feel these two would work together to make sure no one knew they were playing along. However, I do feel like Connie would take Guy out before the very end so she could win.

Tammy/Fulton: Fulton and Tammy make it but not purposely. It is just not their kind of music so they don't search it out. They prefer recorded CDs to radio. So, there are very few chances they will hear it naturally. Also because I believe all the Ducks would play they agree not to play it at any parties. So, Tammy and Fulton make it all month.

Wudoza: I feel like Luis loves that song because it's so cheesy so he loses on purpose. I could also see him making Kenny fail because Kenny overhears him singing along to it.

Batfam:

I feel, like everything in this family, this is an all-out competition between the batsiblings. However, because they are who they are, most of them fail to tell their significant others. This is what makes them lose.

Jayroy: Jason will do anything he can to avoid that song. He doesn't like it to begin with, but to make it a competition is a whole other level. That being said he is the one to send it to the others, well one of the ones. Roy and him both lose together because of Lian. She heard the song in school and wanted to share. Due to that neither of them can be mad.

JonDami: Damian treats this so seriously. He actually figures out how to keep it from being played on all radio stations in Gotham. However, he only accounted for Gotham, not Metropolis. So, when Jon invites him to the Christmas carnival held in the city, he doesn't think anything of it. Unfortunately for him, this causes them both to lose when there is a live DJ and he plays the song on repeat almost all night.

Timberkon: Tim is not above some tricks of his own. He actually set up the comms to play parts of the song when keywords were said. It worked for a week before Barbara made him turn it back so everyone would use their comms again. Bernard finds his commitment endearing. Kon thinks it is insane and tries to make Tim lose. Tim threatens to break up with him if he keeps trying. However, they are all eventually taken out by Steph halfway into the month. She did it by sending them a singing Christmas card with the song.

Birdflash: I feel like Dick and Wally are the hardest to beat. Both of them can quickly remove themselves from any situation should they be in danger of hearing the song. This has led to more than one instance of Dick backflipping out of a window with his ears covered. However, they do succeed in making it all month.

StephCass: Cass is one of those people that the boys refuse to try to send her the song. Not only is she scary but she moves so quietly too. Steph isn't that intimidating on her own. However, with Cass she is unstoppable. Also because she is the closest significant other to the main family she knows about the competition first. They end up making it to the end of the month.

So, with the fandoms not requested for the AU event, I kind of divided the AU’s and the fandoms as I wanted to. And since I thought it would be kind of fun to kind of sort characters in a different way from a fandom I really love (and have recently rewatched all the movies of), I decided to write a Percy Jackson AU with The Mighty Ducks characters, just sort of figuring out which cabin and which God/dess they’d have as their parent!

Starting off with the obvious place to start, Cabin One. That cabin has only one occupant, the sole child of Zeus at Camp Half-Blood. That child is Charlie Conway because honestly, I do believe that’s the one that best fits Charlie. Children of Zeus are known to be natural leaders with strength and bravery, though they tend to attract a lot of monsters. We see, all throughout the three movies, that Charlie really is not only a natural leader, but a really solid leader that can manage, at the best of times, to truly inspire those around him but even at the worst of times, can still make people pay attention to what he’s saying. He’s also shown bravery several times through the movies, even though he does get targeted for a lot of crap and general growing pains, much like children of Zeus are magnets for trouble (like monsters).

We’ll skip right over Cabin Two, since Hera had no mortal children, and move onto Cabin Three, Poseidon’s cabin. Much like Zeus’s cabin, there’s only one occupant in Poseidon’s cabin, Ken Wu. Ken as a son of Poseidon makes sense to me, with the children of that God really being known for cleverness and battle skills, like Percy in the books or Theseus in the myths. And I feel like there’s quite a few hints throughout the movies that Ken is actually quite good at strategizing, at figuring out plays and moves that will work so translating that over, I feel it fully fits cleverness. While he’s small and was scared at first, Ken also was shown to not only learn how to throw down but to embrace those chances to fight, fulfilling the other big quality for Poseidon’s children.

We’re going to skip Cabin Four, since Demeter doesn’t have a child among this lot, and move right onto Cabin Five, Are’s cabin. There are two sons of Ares in this cabin. First off is the obvious one, Dean Portman. Portman’s shown right from the start in D2 as brash and kind of a goon. He likes fighting, he kind of gets a kick out of people finding him scary. He’s shown to be incredibly brave and protective of those he cares about, but prone to violence and anger. The second son of Ares, despite his small size compared to his other siblings, is Peter Mark. Much like Portman, Peter’s brash, rough and tumble. He’s harsh, with a big attitude and a short fuse. Again, much like Portman, Peter’s not afraid to speak up or to do what needs to be done, showing a sense of bravery characteristic of all of Are’s children, but out of the two of them, Peter is the one who is prouder of his reputation for anger and violence and the one more likely to pick fights just because he can.

Moving right along to Cabin Six, Athena’s cabin. There are two children of Athena in the cabin, both very different people…but both share the characteristic’s of Athena’s children – very intelligent, eager for knowledge, great planners who give solid advice and who aren’t above using tricks to get what they want. The first one is pretty easy to guess. It’s shown in the movies quite clearly that out of all the Ducks, Julie Gaffney is very serious about her studies. She genuinely wants to learn and takes grades and academics seriously. She’s quick-witted and book smart, with a cool head on her shoulders. However, like all other children of Athena, she’s also not afraid to ‘go to battle’ and will fight, physically and mentally, for whatever causes she believes are just. The second child of Athena is one that I don’t think many would assume would be put in this cabin – Russ Tyler. Much like Julie, Russ is an extremely intelligent fellow. He was shown in D2 to have street smarts and a cool head, a quick wit, and an ability to plan for what he wants. In D3, it’s shown that on top of that, Russ actually does care a lot about his academics, that he’s serious about learning and getting every advantage he can get. It’s also shown in that movie that he’s really good at giving solid, dependable advice, as he’s actually really clever and observant and is good at figuring out solutions or advising as to the best course of action.

We’ll skip Cabin Seven and Eight, as there are no children of Apollo among this group and Artemis is an eternal maiden. So, the next cabin we focus on is Cabin Nine, Hephaestus’ Cabin. Children of Hephaestus are great craftsmen, strong individuals who can be a little gruff and intimidating, but are strong, well liked and respectable. There are two children of Hephaestus in this cabin. I’m starting off with the slightly unexpected. I firmly do believe that Connie is a daughter of Hephaestus. I have it pretty firmly in my head that Connie is someone who loves hands-on work. She wants to get dirty; she wants to work with her hands and build and create. She loves crafting, yeah, but she’s also someone who would totally be up for helping with renovations on a house, for example. She’s shown throughout the movies to actually be really strong, to the point where Averman calls her the Velvet Hammer. However, she’s also very friendly and charming, and seems to be well-liked by almost everyone who meets her. The other camper is Fulton Reed. Big, solid, and strong, Fulton embodies everything that a son of Hephaestus should be. I also have always headcanoned him as being really good with his hands. Book learning has never really been up his alley, but he’s surprisingly creative and a quick learner when it comes to working with his hands and various tools. The weapons he makes are highly sought after in the camp and he’s notorious for being unbeatable in Capture the Flag if he’s wielding one of his own weapons. But on top of just that strength and creativity, Fulton’s been shown to be a really generous, respectable guy, right from the very first movie. While he might resort to violence a little too easily, he’s always the first to stick up for the little guy, to put his neck on the line for them. Protective and genuinely good-hearted, I think that, like Julie, Fulton’s kind of someone that other people just like and look up to a little.

We’re onto Cabin Ten, Aphrodite’s cabin. Surprisingly, it’s not that full, with only two campers. Tammy Duncan is, to me, most definitely a daughter of Aphrodite. She’s a huge girly girl, someone who loves make-up, skincare, beauty routines, all things feminine and cutesy. She lives for silly gossip and drama, as well as talk about romance and who likes who. However, while her pretty face and love for all those things would lead most to just dismiss her as a shallow, vapid girl, Tammy’s a lot more than just a pretty face. She’s not afraid to break a nail punching someone who angers her; she’s also got surprisingly hidden depths as the Camp’s best chariot racer. The other camper, Luis Mendoza, is a son of Aphrodite with all that that brings. People who meet Luis find it hard not to comment on what a good-looking boy he is, but he’s a good-looking boy who comes across a little bit…vapid. Like there’s not a lot going on up there. Don’t be fooled though – while he’s charming and more than a little bit of a Casanova (what can he say…he’s truly in love with love itself, as befitting his parentage), Luis has a lot more going on in that head than he lets on. An extremely observant person, he’s quick to learn other people, to figure out what makes them tick, what makes them happy, what buttons to push to get them to give him his way. However, he doesn’t often use that talent of his for anything negative, honestly. While he can be a little manipulative, there’s really not a bad or mean-hearted bone in this boy’s body.

Cabin Eleven is, as always, the fullest. The cabin is always busy, and its residents normally are too, being adventurous, clever, fun-loving, just a little hectic, and delighting in pranks and general merriment. Lester Averman is definitely the most well-known of Hermes children and he’s the Counselor of the cabin. While Averman might not be the most handsome, the strongest, the bravest, or the most talented, he is extremely clever. Quick-witted and very sociable, Averman is oddly charming and impossible to dislike. His mischievous nature and wise-cracking mouth can get him into some trouble at times, but he can almost always talk himself out of it, getting the other guy laughing along with him instead of beating him up. I also see Tommy Duncan as one of those rare cases where siblings don’t necessarily share the same godly parent, as I would put Tommy, whose main priority is having fun and keeping people happy, as a child of Hermes. Lastly, there’s Dwayne Robertson. Quirky and charming, with a ready smile and laugh, Dwayne can charm the pants off of you. And he’s got quick, agile hands…hands that are normally full of stuff that he really shouldn’t have been able to get ahold of. His natural ability as a thief is rarely ever put to serious use though as, while a little bit of a showboat and a little gregarious, Dwayne actually has a strong moral compass and very defined ideas of right and wrong.

I do think that, while the only occupant of Cabin Twelve, there’s no other place for Goldberg. This boy is undeniably a son of Dionysus. Like his father, Goldberg’s actually really good with plants…and even more to the point, I really do feel that no matter his age, with his sociable nature and fun-loving attitude, Goldberg has a tendency to be a bit of a party animal. An extrovert to the extreme, he needs those large gatherings, he needs those get-togethers, he needs the excess and the fun and the high of being the center of attention, of being the ‘good time guy’.

Next up is Nemesis’ cabin, Cabin Sixteen. In a weird twist on how mortals and Gods normally end up dating, Nemesis actually stayed with the mortal long enough to have two of his children, about a year apart. Both Jesse and Terry Hall are children of Nemesis. They both have chips on their shoulders, and are both quick to remember any insults, real or imagined. They have tough attitudes and have no problem getting revenge, but at the same time, they have very strict ideas about right and wrong, and they aren’t actively bad people. They believe in balance and think that it’s not okay for anyone, even themselves, to get a big head. If people do, of course they should bring that person’s ego back down to the correct side. That being said – Terry and Jesse? Excellent guys to have on your side because, while their caustic words may sting sometimes, they are actually really loyal to those they care about and make the best allies.

Moving to another cabin with only one camper in it. Cabin Seventeen, Nike’s cabin, is occupied solely by Adam Banks. Nike is the Goddess of victory and victory is always what Adam is after. Like most of Nike’s children, Adam has a real competitive streak to him. If he’s going to play, he wants to play to win, he wants to give it his all against opponents who are also giving it their all and he wants to come out on top. Losing is not something he handles easily, and he’ll often push himself to rather extreme limits. Adam has the drive, the determination, and is so willing to put in the hard work but sometimes he forgets that it’s okay to relax as well.

[gaffney]

totally stealing this from you but i am very curious: what are your top 3 julie rarepairs?

ok so after a lot of filtering (why is there fast and furious fic in the julie tag???), i've deduced that the top 3 most popular julie pairings on ao3 are adam/julie, connie/julie, and dean/julie, so i'm considering everything else is a rarepair!!

charlie/julie. i just love how comfortable these two are with each other ever!! like charlie was hanging off of her basically 5 seconds after they met, or him catching julie in a hug after she caught the puck. also this deleted scene in d3 where he's got an arm around her and fulton. she's very relaxed around him and is usually near his side in bg scenes. i also really like that moment in d3 where charlie ices the puck because he realizes julie's having a hard time, and then skates over to tell her 'way to hang tough'. RESPECT. VALIDATION. two things i really wish they'd given to julie more. i don't remember anyone else complimenting julie's skills and i love that charlie looks out for her. (i mean the writers even made her starting 1st all about goldberg's feelings. hell, julie ended up complimenting goldberg even though he basically poisoned her... blergh). we don't really get to see what type of people julie is attracted to aside from scooter who was kinda a snake, but i def think charlie has a thing for headstrong people who speak their minds (hi linda) and julie fits that description. and considering julie actually shares charlie's main interest with him (hockey), it's easy to imagine them together. anyway self-promo but read my charlie/julie fic rose-colored boy bc it is canon TO ME.

guy/julie. SO ADMITTEDLY, i do only ship this if they're poly with connie because i think they would work super well as a trio, but like, d3 made me go 👀 because it felt like (contrary to the popular belief of connie & julie being besties) guy got julie in the divorce. like they were constantly together?? but yeah, honestly, my reason for this is simply that i think guy is a sweet dude (who likes his partners to be able to destroy him) and julie deserves to be doted on and also they are both in love with connie so obviously they are also in love with each other.

julie/tammy. considering they haven't even met i literally have no reason other than tammy's "PEOPLE!" vs julie's "AND GIRLS!" lines. BUT LIKE IMAGINE. i think they would butt heads over how similar they are but then realize they'd work great together and kiss. that's it that's the fic. i will write it one day...

i think there's a case to be made for julie/russ but i mostly view them as gossip-y besties. i would however read it if anyone else wrote it...

DUCKS FLY TOGETHER.

[the-bash-bros]

The Mighty Ducks as the Avengers

… Because I finally wanted to write something...

OG6

(All from D1... because... OG)

Connie Moreau = Black Widow

Because she’s all the feminine representation you're getting until Disney gets off their asses. (Sorry Tammy, you're great too) Connie’s just better than most of the dudes. You’ll think she’s nice and sweet and then BAM! You’ve just lost possession of the puck. People always seem to forget, she is no lady, she’s a Duck.

Charlie Conway = Iron Man

Some would think he’s Adam Banks but no. He is a D3 Charlie Conway. If you understand Cocky Conway then you get it. Both Charlie and Tony are skilled without the drive to strive for more... plus the whole emotional angst left and right.

Fulton Reed = Thor

He’s out here, he’s the strongest, physical presence on the team. He is the loudest and proudest to be here supporting his team. And let's be honest with ourselves, he's a himbo, in the purest way. The god of slap shots.

Jesse Hall = Captain America

He can do this all day. Jesse is sure of himself, and he is sure of what’s right and wrong for the team, just like Cap. Plus he has the power and skill on the ice... and a big mouth that seems to just get him in trouble. But most of all, he won’t back down from a fight.

Adam Banks = Hulk

Hear me out. Does he want to play hockey? Yes. Did he do all he could to play? Yes. Did it get out of control? Yes. Adam Banks is Bruce Banner because they both tried and failed to do what was right. They have this immense pressure on their shoulders to save the team in times of need. Honestly Banner and Banksy both just need a hug.

Guy Germaine = Hawkeye

Guy is on top of his game. If you need someone to score you should hand it to hardworking and dependable Guy Germaine. He won't let you down... except on a few occasions that were a little above his pay grade. But despite this, you need Guy, you need someone who is leveled, someone to bring you back down to Earth.

[cc-tinslebee]

[steps up to the mic] Listen, this might just be me, but if you’re going to have a large cast of “main” characters, you should probably give those characters opportunities to display their skills and foils instead of handing it off to the “real” main character.

Obviously, this could probably speak to a lot of fandoms, but I’m just gonna talk about The Mighty Ducks for a second because that’s what inspired this train of thought.

A bit of a rant (analysis?) below the cut:

When we look at the movies, I think the original, as well as D2, handled their large cast pretty well. Sure, it was kind of strange not seeing Karp, Peter, Terry, and Tammy/Tommy in the D2 cast, but they seemed to fill their absence decently with the new additions. (Of course, that’s just my own opinion.)

D3’s where my real gripe is, and while I have yet to rewatch it, there are still a few issues about the large cast that come to mind. Going from giving Adam good arcs in 1-2 to side-lining him when there was a perfect opportunity right in front of them, setting up a conflict between Guy and Connie with seemingly little payoff, and completely cutting Jesse (an original and arguably very important Duck) out with, as far as I know, little explanation.

I’d like to clarify before I get into this next part that I actually like Linda as a character; she seemed to have a lot of heart and I really admire that. I don’t, however, appreciate the writers creating a female character for the sole purpose of being the love interest to the lead. I really do believe that they could have made a much more compelling coming-of-age story for Charlie had they not implemented that romance, which didn’t seem to add anything to the plot. It really wasn’t Linda who got Charlie to turn around and realise his kinda self-destructive behaviour, but Fulton and Bombay.

They really would have used their time better focusing on solely telling the story of the Ducks’; Charlie’s refusal to change, actually giving us a vague understanding of Connie and Guy’s lovers quarrel, Adam’s feelings of separation from the Ducks. They really did the Ducks dirty with this one, and, hell, they did Linda dirty too. (And, yes, I do understand that D3 was mainly there to wrap up the story, so naturally things were a little messy.)

Which brings me to Game Changers.

Look, I’m not going to subject you all to me nitpicking this show. I will, however, say this: I hope they give the Don’t Bothers/reclaimed Ducks other than Evan a chance to shine. Even Sofi and Nick, despite them arguably being the “second/third” main (younger) characters. Sam, Logan, Maya, Lauren, Koob — even the Capek brothers! — are listed as main characters, but they’re often not as focused on as Evan. I’ve seen someone argue that Sam was set up to be a really interesting character this first season and they didn’t really do much with him other than in Pond Hockey, which was kind of disappointing, and I think that’s an extremely valid point.

I can only really speak for myself when I talk about things I’d like to see if we get a season 2. Like, if they manage to get Joshua Jackson, I’d be pretty happy with a new-captain-meets-the-old-captain moment, but I would much rather see Charlie bond with Logan over absentee parents over Evan. Logan clearly has some unaddressed issues with his mom, clearly more self-aware that what his mom did was unfair to him, and it just furthers his already established arc (but I’ve spoken about that already). I’d like to see Sam’s character get explored more, and maybe see Bombay help him harness his X-factor! I’d like to see Lauren and Maya’s relationship grow, and the Capeks’ gradual journey learning English! Hey, maybe even see the Reddicks join the new Ducks and bond a bit with Evan like Stephanie and Alex did.

That’s what I, personally, would like to see, not Evan getting handed all the potential arcs. Because he pretty much got everything; absent dad, team captain, love interest, choosing between what's good for him versus the team, getting Bombay back onto his feet, etc, etc. Other than maybe Sofi and Nick, everyone else on the team has 1-2 arcs at most, and I think there’s a pretty good argument out there that some get one to none.

And look, I’m not so naïve that I don’t understand that large casts are hard to juggle. It’s difficult to focus on everyone especially when a particular character speaks more to you and especially with a time limit. But take my Logan and Evan point for example; it’s not hard to assume that a bonding-with-Charlie-over-an-absent-parent moment would go to Evan. That’s probably what the GC writers might assume. But if you take a step back, look at the rest of your cast for a moment, you can see that he’s not the only option. It’s all about sharing the wealth of arcs evenly amongst your characters.

(Also, I wanted to quickly include — I believe — @k-romantic’s idea/joke that Julie should’ve been the one to romance Linda purely because I think it adds to my argument of arcs being forced onto the main character when they could’ve easily been better suited for another character. Obviously, since it was the late 1990s and Disney’s a bunch of cowards, maybe they wouldn’t have used Julie, but I think another Duck dating Linda would have done what the writers were going for just as well, maybe even better.)
