Ok I know it’s been almost a year since this post, but tonight I was playing Among Us and while someone was trying to kill me I had an epiphany.
Just hear me out, why Webby colored her own eyes blue in a weblena draw she made while Scrooge’s are… “green” if she’s her clone?
It’s because Scrooge had BLUE eyes when he was BORN
Think of this: Webby inherited Scrooge’s traits from genetics, but she can’t inherit what Scrooge acquired across his life. She can’t inherit scars, she can’t inherit surgeries, and she didn’t inherit the reason why Scrooge’s eyes changed: GOLD
In the comics, one of me most iconic and unique moments in Scrooge’s life (besides the first dime tale) is when he finds his first gold nugget in the Klondike.
Even moments before that, he realized that the moment he proved the muddy rock he found was gold, his life would totally change, and there’s the possibility that even HE could change as well.
The moment he decides to take that risk and submerge it in the water and then take it out, looks like if the golden shine of the nugget literally blasted his eye’s color, because that decision of his life changed him.
He was not the same Scrooge before and after that. The gold changed his reality from a poor enthusiast to a real rich entrepreneur, and this also changed him in his insides -> eyes are the window of the soul, so his eyes color changed as well, his life now changed forever, all about gold, fortune, business, a new himself. Gold became part of what he is, so: blue color from birth + yellowish/golden color from gold = his new himself, his new soul, his new green-ish eye colors
That’s why his eyes are different from Webby’s draw. She didn’t choose that blue color of herself because yes, it’s because those are her real eye colors!
And that’s why she never suspected a relationship between her and Scrooge. She can document and investigate Scrooge with all the newspapers and evidence she wants, but she’ll never know about this because that’s something no one ever documented, because it happened to Scrooge when he was alone. She only heard of documented stories and reports, but she wasn’t there, she’s not living Scrooge’s life, she has different adventures, she’s her own person, her life experiences are different, her soul is different because unlike Scrooge, she has friends who filled her own soul with her true self. That’s why she doesn’t care about treasure and gold, because it’s not part of her, her soul. She’s the first innocent soul Scrooge had before gold took part of who he is, and that path eventually took him to fall in greed and tragedy, leaving him alone, only with his precious gold. (Also, notice how this makes sense with Matilda’s eyes being blue as well 👀👇).
And not even pictures from Scrooge’s childhood could have helped Webby decipher that, because in that time photos were black and white…
… and no one can distinguish blue and green eye colors when the pic is black and white.
Anyways, thanks for coming to my rambling talk of the day 🙌 sadly the Impostor killed me in the game I was playing so I’ll go to play another game.
