This. This was just absolutely incredible.

So much mom Della content has been Della trying her darndest to be the best mom ever but messing up a bit along the way, and even for a lot of this episode, her intentions were on point, but her methods weren’t quite. She was right that her kids were more mature than Zeus, but having them try out to be gods was a bit much.

Besides, having them try out to be gods was just a crutch, not a cast. Their wound was that Scrooge chose other people over them after they’d failed.

After spending the day watching her babies dissolve like cotton candy in a puddle repeatedly from Selene and Scrooge’s rejection (mainly Scrooge’s, since that was the core issue), she’d had enough.

Della is an absolute uncle’s girl. She loves and looks up to Scrooge so much. He’s her hero and biggest supporter, and she’s his baby girl.

But as a mom, her own babies come first. And she’s not going to sit back and let someone hurt her babies, no matter who it is or whether it’s intentional or not.

I think Della may have been speaking from experience here, too. We saw her struggle with the need to prove her own worth when she first came back home, but I think she also strove for Scrooge’s approval as a child.

She knows what it’s like to be a kid trying to live up to Scrooge McDuck’s expectations, and as much fun as she had, there were probably times it was hard… times when she didn’t feel good enough.

And like any parent, she wants better for her kids.

She doesn’t want them growing up questioning their worth or their place in the family. She doesn’t want them to feel replaceable like how she felt when she encountered Mrs. Beakley the maternal figure or Launchpad the pilot. She made sure to tell them they’re unique and irreplaceable, but she knew the words sounded hollow up against Scrooge’s actions. She knew Scrooge was the only one who could undo what he started, and she wasn’t afraid to call him out.

I loved seeing Della as the kids’ advocate. I loved seeing her fight so hard for them, and against her own hero of all people. She’s growing so much as a mom and she’s really found where she fits in the family.

For anyone who hasn't seen them before, Hidden Search Operators are handy tricks you can use when you're either searching or filtering AO3.

summary: string is a generic way of explaining that you can search AO3 for a specific word that appears in a summary. You can do this from the search bar in the header, from the Any Field box at the top of the Advanced Search form, or from the Search Within Results box at the bottom of the filter menu.

Examples:

summary: Bruce

summary: "Bruce Banner"

summary: Bruce OR summary: Banner OR summary: Hulk

You need to put quotation marks around your search term if it is more than one word. The quotes make sure that the site searches for those two words together.

The other two operators listed work best in the Search Within Results box.

expected_number_of_chapters: 1 will return results where every fic has only 1 chapter currently posted.

You can use -expected_number_of_chapters: 1 if you want results where every fic has more than 1 chapter currently posted.

otp:true will return results where there is only 1 relationship tag on the fic. If you want results where there are 2+ relationship tags (and no fics with only 1 relationship tag) then you can use otp:false

This post is going around again (with an unfortunate syntax error on it - this version is correct), so I thought I'd add some information that folks have mentioned wanting in the notes.

Any time you want help with how to use AO3, look for the question mark bubbles. Clicking or tapping on those bubbles will open up a pop up window with information on that specific part of AO3. For example, here's the information for Include filters.

2. When you log into AO3 for the first time, you'll have a banner on your dashboard that gives you a ton of links and information that's useful for new users. A lot of people will dismiss this banner without ever reading it, but you can get it back at any time.

Go to your Preferences, scroll down to Misc. and check the box next to Turn the new user help banner back on. Update your preferences, and the banner will return.

3. When you first tap or click into the search in the header bar, a little popup tip appears below the text box. This is showing you an example of a search that you can do.

4. If you've never seen the filters before, click or tap on any tag that you're interested in. On a wide screen like a laptop, the filters will appear on the right hand side of the screen. On a narrow screen like a phone, you can tap on the Filters button for the menu to appear.

5. The FAQ has a series of questions related to Searching and Browsing on the Archive. You can find the FAQ in the dropdown under the word About in the header.

6. You can also just click on stuff and see what happens. For example, if you're wondering what the four icons at the top corner of each fic blurb mean, you can just click on them and get a popup with the key. Same thing if you're wondering about the icons at the top right of a bookmark.

7. I almost forgot ☝️If you want to see fics based on the primary pairing but you're okay with additional ships being in the fic (so otp:true won't work for you) - there's a script for that! AO3 Only Show Primary Pairing.

This post is extremely long now, but if you're wondering about other things just drop them in the notes.

Ok but imagine if your quirky internet famous/questionably employed emo son comes home with a boyfriend he met off the internet, and it’s a twink 4 years younger than him who won’t take off his winter hat, has his ass entirely out, appears to be illiterate, stays until Christmas Eve and when you click on your son’s new fun YouTube project he’s there again making sex tape jokes AND he took all the batteries out of your clocks
