Have a great day! ❤
queue this post when it’s your birthday and be surprise
So, I have a project that I'm working on. I'll discuss the details later, but for now, I have a question...
Which Isabella ship do you all prefer? (Isabella is my DuckTales OC)
Fenbella (Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera x Isabella Shelton)
Marbella (Mark Beaks x Isabella Shelton)
Thanks to everyone that voted 🙂
It's dangerous to go alone! Here, take this:
Okay, Christians of Tumblr, it's prayer chain time. If you reblog, pray for the person you reblog this from. Feel free to add a specific prayer request in the tags if you like.

OKAY I've always lost my mind a bit at New Gods on the Block, but I could never put my finger exactly on what it was. Specifically this scene.
First off, visually it's BRILLIANTLY laid out and dynamic, and I think that's a huge part of it, because it physicalizes the entire episode thesis.
It's about power dynamics.
We've talked about this before, but the kids have put Scrooge up on this towering pedestal. Della, who's been in their shoes before, spends the whole episode trying to get them to kick that image, because it's stupid, not healthy, whatever. But the point is, I think what's so intriguing about the adults in this episode is that they're ADULTS. Scrooge and Della have kicked the parent-kid dynamic for this one, the dust has settled, and they're on equal footing.
The episode lays that out as soon as they get home from their failed adventure. The kids are having their life crisis, we're worms, etc, and they have Della come in and de-mystify the scenario immediately. It's low stakes. Don't worry about it, look, here's the formula, it's happened before, it'll happen again.
So suddenly, she's coming in confidently and easily on the same plane as Scrooge. This is what happens, whatever. They're partners, she's not subservient or looking up to him. She spends the whole episode treating him like a peer, the adults and the kids, and she's pissed at him like a peer, so that when THIS scene comes around, you've got a great setup for a visual struggle, too.
There's all this discussion about an effective team, who's worthy, whatever, and the kids fall behind, and Della and Scrooge jump in. After all this talk about teamwork, a huge visual point is made about Scrooge and Della having silent, effective communication and team work, and I think the most important part is that Della goes first.
This whole episode is a conversation about power dynamics, and Scrooge being this god-king, and Della pulls him up.
Now, you've got a fight scene happening in a fight scene, while their primary activity is climbing. Again, everything in this episode has been about team work, and this climb is old-hat enough for them together to weave in and out and still have it out, and the timing is EVERYTHING.
Scrooge is critical of what they're doing, where are those kids, why aren't they helping, etc, and he's been placed higher than Della. Suddenly, though, when she turns it around on him:
She climbs above him. They talked in the artbook about how she used to be in the kids' shoes and knows what it's like to hinge her worth on his opinion, and now, she's knocking HIM down a peg.
Suddenly SHE'S in the position of power, where she's put herself, (and he's let her, long way from don't raise your voice at me) because pre-series, they (and Donald) were a team. That's the point that he has to take a look outside of himself and see that the kids aren't on the same page. He's thought of them as a team, but didn't vocalize it, didn't treat them fairly, etc, and the kids heard and that had consequences. He literally doesn't hear them, he's not listening, and it takes a smackdown from someone who's decided she's on the same plane to get through to him.
It's one of the few times Della's one of the adults and not one of the kids, and it's really brilliantly executed. It adds a lot of dynamic, and the implied history and experience together adds a really dynamic layer. She used to be Thee adventure team, and that's still true. Idk the silent teamwork got me.
Anyway, this episode is my fav and a lot more thought was put into this than it looks, thanks for coming to my ted talk.
Not that I'm planning on abandoning Tumblr, but if, God forbid, things continue to get worse on this site, what alternatives do you guys recommend?
Every writer on Tumblr: “I would combust out of love if someone ever drew fanart of my fic!!” Me: “oh man I wanna draw this scene BUT THEY WOULD PROBABLY HATE IT AND HATE ME FOR THE NERVE”
Dear artists.
We, the writers, will accept any of your fan arts.
We don’t care if it looks like shit to you, or you think your art skills are not good enough.
We will love any fan art, because it’s the most beautiful way to say “I love what you write”.
This times a million.
This also applies to aesthetics, moodboards, spin-off fanfic drabbles, and the like. Doesn’t matter how insignificant or amateurish you think it is – all of it is beautiful. <3
I know everyone else said it but I have to…
If ANYONE - ANYONE EVER - did fanart, spin-off fics, moodboards, heck, even songs about anything my amateur writer ass has written I would literally spend the rest of the week smiling and kicking my feet like a giddy schoolgirl OMG
WAIT suddenly insane about new gods on the block I JUST figured out what about it makes me lose my fucking mind hang on analysis incoming
Ducktales 2017 timeline: ranting
One tiny thing that is icking me about Ducktales is that there is rarely any clear dates, or seasons for how much time passesor when the episodes happen. Like, obviously most episodes do not happen directly after the previous one unless they are double episodes like the season finales the first two episodes or the darkwing duck episodes in S3.
In addition to that exact topic, I'm gonna have to say that by logic, the spear of Selene incident , at the point of S2 when Della came back, should have been 11 instead of 10 years.
While (again) not entirely clear in what season the show even starts, it's summer for most people, which also makes sense with the trees being green and everything, so either summer or late spring
The first episode obviously also didn't play on the exact day of Della dissapearing for 10 years, cause by simple logic that would've been made clear. So yeah, still closer to 10 years but as in someone saying they are 10 years old and not "10 years and so many months"
We have the whole christmas time travel episode (that I just rewatched which made me write this post) in S2 with Dewey meeting young Donald and Della. This now tells us, Donald and the triplets have been living with Scrooge for at least half a year.
After that we're back to the generic cartoon spring/summer season
Ergo: The showmakers were to lazy to properly think of the fact that time INDEED DOES PASSES, also in a cartoon. Not to forget that this could've given us:
A triplet birthday episode in S1 or S2
An episode on the date of the spear of Selene incident with everyone like "ah phooey, now it's been 11 years already" with possible bonding between Donald and Scrooge
A GOOD TIMELINE I COULD REFERENCE IN MY HEAD FOR ANYBODYS SAKE
Yes. I know this is a kids show. Not to forget a kids show from Disney, but I'm always happier when I know how much time passes between events in shows or movies. It gives my brain satisfaction. This is also often (not always) a reason for me disliking episodically structured shows.
As someone that has also been overthinking the DuckTales timeline, here's a loose timeline I've been working with:
October 2017: The events of "Woo-Oo!"
December 25, 2017: "The Incredible Summit of Mt. Neverrest!"
April 2018: "Last Crash of the Sunchaser!" (Takes place 6 months after "Woo-Oo!")
September 2018: “The Ballad of Duke Baloney!” (Takes place 4 months after "The Shadow War!")
December 25, 2018: “Last Christmas!”
~April 16, 2019: "The 87 Cent Solution!" (Gizmoduck mentions that Mark Beaks is at Crowchella, which is the duckverse equivalent of Coachella, which took place from April 12 - 21, 2018)
A massive mass attack I was working on for ArtFight but I forgot you can only attack up to 100 characters at a time. I had to break it apart to upload the attacks, so I'm uploading the entire thing here along with separate parts for a closer look, so I can link to it.
Heeeey! 🥰 Any coffeshop prompts?
coming right up! :D
coffee shop prompts
written
B notices that A is dealing with a very disrespectful customer and wastes no time in stepping in to help.
A notices a customer, B, who's walked in to use the free wifi, clearly frustrated and overworked. They feel horrible, walking over and giving them a free hot drink in hopes that it'll make them feel better.
B is a flustered barista who's had a horrible day, and after dropping a customer's order, they finally break down into tears. They're surprised when they see A gently stooping down to their level and wordlessly wiping up the mess, the only thing they offer is an apologetic look.
Both A and B are desperately searching for a job position and compete for a hiring spot at their local coffee shop.
A is a regular customer and B is that typical barista who spells their name completely wrong, enough to completely butcher the pronunciation too. That is, until a friend of A accompanies them one day and B hears the correct name that they should have been writing all along. How long did A let them mess up for and why didn't they say anything?
B is excited to come to work every day to see A, a customer who walks in daily and tells B about their day. When A suddenly stops coming in without warning, B can't help but feel like something is seriously wrong.
B has taking a liking to a regular customer, A, but has to hide their disappointment when one day, A walks in with C, their date.
B notices that A orders tea instead of their usual. They also sound a little different. They swore it wasn't that cold, why are they shivering? They keep sneezing and were they always that pale?
