âItâs not a phase. This is who I am.âÂ
@cacklingfoolsâ
â...But are you even seeing something?â Kildare waves his hand in front of his cousinâs face.
âItâs not easy being the family disappointment. I really have to work at it.â
@ketchupblood
"Really? I guess I never really worked at that, it kinda of just happened naturally... I guess I've born this way? ...Also, I have no idea where I am and I need fuel for my bike, do you know where I can buy fuel?"

Kildare frowned, crossing his arms.
âIâm not really a fan of shock therapy⊠Iâve already had enough! Never really workedâŠâ The coot was blinking trying to get his eyes to focus properly. âWhat are you talking about, getting rid of friends and family!? I asked you to be my friend! And I passed your test, sir! That means youâre my friend now!â
He reached his hand to touch the rat again, but maybe that wasnât the best idea⊠So he stopped.
âI like that you make LOUD NOISES! And all the flashing lights and when I saw you frying a house down! That was VERY NEAT! And you looked alone and⊠Somewhat lost. So I thought, why not talk to the guy⊠And ALAS, HERE AM I! Talking about, what exactly are you doing tonight?â
@kildaresgrizzocootâ
The villain slouched as he sluggishly raised a hand over his face as he slightly pulled at his skin with it. Did this guy really want to be a sidekick of his? If he wanted that, then heâd have to leave those people behind, or else they will drag him down. He was trying to be honest and helpful, since this one was able to take the voltage, but his patience with others that were not too keen was very short.
â+No, I meant to say leave them behind! Iâm still your âfriendâ as you put it but in order to be my friend, you have to cut the relationships you already have. It makes things easier down the road, honestly.+â Elmo iterated as he went to straightening the straps that kept the large battery pack on his back attached to him. â+Itâs not like starting a new life is too hard, is it? If it is, then it might be better for you to just leave me be and go on about your business.+â
Wait, that was his reason for liking him? That he made loud noises? The destruction he could understand, but loud noises? Normally that wasnât what attracted people to one another. â+Well, I was thinking of⊠Hey⊠are you trying to get me to talk about my stuff? Nowâs not the time nor place for it. If ya wanna join the cause, fine, but make sure you get your stuff and leave your family. Iâm not gonna tell you anything relevant about me until youâve done that.+â
@soul-heart-and-beyond
The mad coot quacked excitedly - that's it, that would explain the powers, the costume, the weird test... The rat was a hero!
"You talk about it as if it was a job, not a friendship... And CAUSE!? What are you talking about?" A loud gasp "Are you fighting for SOMETHING!? SOMEONE!? LIKE A HERO? A CHOSEN ONE?"
"On that specific situation, I may consider... WHAT IS YOUR CAUSE, OH NOBLE FRIEND!? ...And are you telling me YOU left your family, friends and things behind...? That... Sound rough. I'm... sorry. I would hug you but I'm honestly scared of the zapping thing again but... Buddy, do you wanna talk about it? Do you miss them?"
@kildaresgrizzocoot
Intruder! How did he even get in the lab? Just like his creator the little machine didnât appreciate uninvited guests. But what bothered him even more than that was the way this weird duck stared at him. He didnât need his scan to know that this guy was nothing but trouble for him - and the lab.
âBZZZZ!â
Lil Bulb cursed as he ran away from the incoming jump, climbing up on the table in an attempt to feel tall while shaking his fist at the stranger, his bulb starting to glow red at the mention of âtoyâ. He is NOT a toy! And he hated it when people would view him as such.
@cacklingfools
Kildare just went inside the lab to search for Fethry; he was bored and he wanted someone to play with... But the tiny robot was just mesmerizing and the crazy coot pretty much forgot what his first intentions were; now he wanted to play with the strange toy.
"YEEEEEEEHEHEHE! YOU CAN CHANGE COLORS! PRETTY! PRETTY!" Kildare claps extremely excited and then resume going after Lil Bulb.
"Come here! Come here LITTLE FRIEND! I JUST WANNA PLAY WITH YOU! We're going to have so much FUN TOGETHER!"
Kildare screeched, climbing the table and reaching up to snatch the tiny robot.
"Are we playing already? Are we playing catch!? READY OR NOT I'M GOING TO GET YOOOOOOOU! YEHEHEHEHEHE!"

@soul-heart-and-beyond
âEEEEEEYEEEHEHEHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!â Kildare screeched as he got electrocuted by the rat, every feather in his body burning a bit. Wow, that was a reaction he didnât expect! The crazy coot stumbles around Megavolt, trying to understand what was going on.
âA shockâŠ? They used to give shocks on my head⊠In my cheekbones.â Kildare shook his head, trying to feel less drowsy. âIt kinda hurt less in my hand⊠Most of the time they would put me to sleep but sometimes if I misbehave⊠They would just zap me.â He looks back at the rat, now a bit wary. âSo, did I pass?â
Previously On!: @kildaresgrizzocootâ
That looked very painful, something that kind of gave the rat a small smirk on his face as he could see the volts running rampant through the birdâs body. Then he let go of the avian as he watched him stumble and twirl around in a dazed state, his hands behind his back as if he was merely waiting for his ice cream to be given to him. Though unlike what he had thought before about the fella not being able to withstand his voltage, Megavolt raised an eyebrow when the other was still able to talk in cohesive sentences. Seems like he had a pupil after all⊠yippee. Now all of his freedom time alone would be spent up with this nut but who knows? Maybe the duckâll grow on him.
â+Sounds like youâve had your hefty helpings of shock therapy, alright.+â Megs commented as he took a light walk around the fan of his to see what he could with him. Nothing bad of course, just measuring up how a costume would look on him and what would be the defining traits thatâll make him stand out from the rest, but still be electric-themed. His makeshift cable wire tail swished and swayed with each step that he took as he examined the fellow up and down, back and front, all around really. â+Yeah, you passed, with somewhat flying colors I might add. Thought yaâd shrivel up into ashes or something, but hey, thatâs what tests are for, to make or break ya!+âÂ
With his arms behind his head as a rest for it, he wondered about what he should do with this new liability he had to take care of, which also prompted another thing he would need to know before he âtrainedâ this fan. â+Say, you got uh, any friends and family? Cause if ya do, then you might wanna leave âem now so you can take your first step into your new life without anything holding ya back. Might as well go home and nab all of your possessions first too so they donât get sold or given away without your permission.+â he kindly advised, understanding that this might not be an easy task, but since when has a life of crime been easy?

Well, this was definitely not something that he was used to before, having fans of his own whereas Darkwing Dork was still probably out there trying to get some. What a shame how these things turned out when your idol was not exactly the perfect icon that you expected, but life had its way of showing the ugly truth somehow. Taking notice to how the avian neglected his warning and began to spout words on and on about how he probably did one of his things where he would communicate to electronics to understand their feelings and hear their opinions. Sounds like this wacky fella was caught in one of his charging sessions.Â
â+So youâre a fan of my⊠work, huh? And you like the costume? I⊠made it myself, heh heh heh. Tell ya what, Iâll give you a lesson or two if you can pass one little testâŠ.+â Megavolt pronounced slyly, taking this chance to give the naive duck a taste of the power that he contained and had to manage with everyday. He lent his gloved hand to the other only to grab it and give this Kildare a few hundred volts of electricity. It was a test though, to see how much the other could withstand the pain it brought. If he passed, then heâd take on a lackey! If not, then⊠oh well, solo was what he did best anyway.

"...What exactly is this 'trick-or-treating' you're talking about? Am I supposed to fight people for candy? Because I WOULD AND I WILL FIGHT PEOPLE FOR CANDY!"
@kildaresgrizzocoot said: "Youâre ZĂ©, right? I know that Dugan likes you a lot and⊠I think I scared the heck outta him. Can you give me tips?â (unprompted)
âYes, I am. And I do know the boy.â He gave a nod of confirmation and gave the new duck a pat on the back. âWhat happened, my friend? Why is he scared?â
@doyouliketosamba
âWell, thatâs the problem... Iâm not sure. I like him, he is fun to play with!â Kildare quacks happily and smiles, then he looks worried at ZĂ© again âI took him for a ride on my motorbike and suddenly the boy was terrified! I stopped it in the sidewalk, and people got mad at us... It was bad, really bad. Iâm afraid Fethry donât trust me with Dugan anymore...â
@kildaresgrizzocoot continued
âOH! REALLY!?â
âThank goodness, I donât think I can eat more corn⊠I was trying to⊠trying to⊠Connect, you know, Grandma? WHAT WAS LIKE TO BE CORNELIUS COOT!? So I tried to think what if I only ate corn⊠And well the last days have been horrible⊠And I donât feel any more like him.â
Kildare just throws all the corn at the ground, a big sigh following that.
âI wasnât raised as a Coot⊠Or as Loon⊠Or as a Duck⊠Everybody seems to get it - their place in the world, heritage, something like that⊠But to tell the truth, grandma⊠Iâm not sure who am IâŠâ
âOh honey.â She reacts a hand out to caress his cheek.
âI supposed youâre a mix of all three.. Well, you arenât technically related to Humperdink, but heâd of loved ya just the same.â
âI could tell ya some about my grandpa if youâd like?â
@elviraduck
He quacks happily feeling her touching his cheek.
"Yeah, I am a big mess, seems about right! ...And I don't care if I am really your grandson or not, in my heart you'll always be my real grandma!" Kildare clings to Elvira in a tight hug.
"YEEEEE I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR ABOUT HIM!"
âWhoa, whoa. I am NOT going to therapy. I donât need to talk with them about my trauma of isolation that my uncle gave me. Besides, therapists are bad.âÂ
@cacklingfools
âWORD, CUZ!â
{ â } âWell⊠On the one hand, therapy is a helpful and completely acceptable way to work through problems and become a more emotionally healthy individual.â Lord knows that Fenton has plenty of traumatic events and personal issues to work through. A list of which continues to grow with every passing life-changing and/or death-defying one.Â
âBut on the other handâŠâÂ
âTherapy can be a rather⊠expensive ordeal. Even if my health insurance somehow covered the costs, my schedule is already packed with responsibilities that take precedence over-â Over mental and emotional health? â⊠Over superfluous concerns like that.â Over HIS mental and emotional health, at least. âBesides, there are plenty of people who are far more deserving of receiving help than I am⊠Iâm perfectly fine.â Heâs fine? Heâs fine⊠Yeah.Â
Heâs fine. { â }

@cacklingfools
The nurse was clearly scared of Kildare. The coot wasnât exactly nice to the hospital staff, and she looked pretty young. âSir, he is⊠unstable. He attacked two nurses with the drip hod yesterday⊠To release him we need you to sign some papers⊠claiming to be responsible for him and paying for the hospitalization and the damages he caused⊠Is it okay?âÂ
Kildare was barking insults at the girl as she tried to ignore him.
âA-are you absolutely sure you want to bring him to your homeâŠ?â The nurse asked, giving Fethry the papers.
ââŠOh.â
Papers and money, why do they have to ruin everything? How was he supposed to pay that? He never had enough money. But sadlyâŠthis is what happens when someone gets his cousin into a hospital, forâŠunderstandable reasons. But he could tell that the nurse was only trying to help so Fethry offered her a warm smile, hoping to assure her that there is no reason to be scared anymore.
âIâm sure! Thatâs my cousin and he doesnât like hospitals so once heâs at home with me, you donât have anything to worry about! He just gets really stressed in those kind of places so itâs better for him to be out of here.â
Once she handed him the papers, Fethry was quick to sign them. Money or no money, he wouldnât just abandon Kildare here. BesidesâŠhe signed with his uncleâs name. Scrooge had enough money and owed him anyway - well, it was about his life buuutâŠ.he helped, despite Scrooge ignoring his calls.
@cacklingfools
The hospital was more than happy to accept the document where Fethry claimed responsibility over Kildare and all his damages and they kicked the troublesome coot out pretty quickly. In no time Fethry had Kildare's things, his gun and the key to his bike - that was in the hospital's parking lot. A staggering Kildare was trying to follow Fethry around, one hand grasping at his cousin for balance and the other giving the finger to everyone at the hospital.
"I'm free! Free! Take that! Hey, you! I'm going away, and there's nothing you can do!" He was still drowsy and less agitated and noisy than his regular self, but that wasn't enough to keep him from doing a number.
"Wheeere's my bike, cuz? I can drive! I am fine!" The mad loon coot asked, obviously not fine at all... He couldn't even walk straight.
kildaresgrizzocootâ:
@cacklingfools
ââŠSomethingâŠâ He answers, his voice slow and unnaturally calm. âI thought the aliens had got you, Feth⊠It was⊠So cold.â
The loon coot had a bunch of bandages on him, but he didnât look badly hurt⊠At least not physically.
ââŠTell them white coat bastards I want my bike back and I want to go home⊠I hate this place, I hate the sounds, the smell, I want to burn everything to the ground⊠They better lemme go⊠Or Iâll⊠Make them payâŠâ
Yeah he was very drugged but for sure the things he was saying werenât going to help his case.
âY-yeah. It wasâŠbut donât worry about the aliens. Mitzi, Gladstone and the rest of the familyâŠwe solved the problem. Theyâre not going to harm us anymore.â
The slow voice and the calm tone worried him, as Fethry couldnât help and blame himself a little. He never told anyone where he went. He worried Gladstone. And now his cousin was worried that the aliens got him. He hasâŠa lot of explaining to do and apologies to give. But firstâŠ
Fethry turned around to the nurse who sat beside Kildare earlier, who was still a little shocked about his sudden entrance.
âYou heard him, right? He wants to go home. Can he go now? Because Iâm here now and he can rest in my home.â
@cacklingfools
