Couldn’t work on any projects properly ever since the recent “Ducktales Reboot” episode “The Duck Knight Returns” came out. But DANG I never realized how much of a Darkwing fan I was since a little girl. I’m super hyped. Now I had the uncontrollable itch to draw ducks.
This suddenly came out of no where. The idea of changing Rei’s hair style. I thought maybe her hair was unusually wild and untameable.
Rei had some pretty wild hair, that normal shampoo wouldn’t work. Sometimes the hair was so thick that it could become pointy. Thankfully Mrs.Cavanaugh was helpful in figuring out that Rei needed a different sort of conditioner. Now Drake Mallard still being new to father-hood, wouldn’t know about her wild-hair situation, and buy some rando-generic conditioner. Which starts some crazy hair-growth spurt. Though it’s not completely his fault, because it was some random villain of the week.
I don’t know how many snakes Rei has, but she assures Drake that her allowance is enough to handle the responsibility. (He still questions how she’s able to care and feed 7 different snakes, some that look rather venomous).
Poor Drake is completely out of depth with how Insecure Rei can get about her hair. Her personality had been a big turn-off for prospective parents, so throwing in the wild demented look was already the first thing that weirded them out. Gos didn’t know about this, since Rei was orphaned longer. At first Gos would try to cheer Rei up with how cool she looks. But then she rethinks that after numerous failed attempts of hugs, and countless skin-pricks from Rei’s spiky hair. Drake would have a field day trying to calm Rei down as she freaks out at how rapidly her hair is growing.
The last pic is due to the song “I’m losing my shit” from the Netflix show “Tuca and Bertie.” Rei may be more mature and chill, but deep down she holds a tight leash on a growing anxiety that spawned since her time at the orphanage. Rei’s psychic abilities had been difficult for her to wrangle, even with Mrs. Cavanaugh’s help. But Rei’s empath abilities are more stronger, which makes her sensitive to other people’s moods and vibes. She’s aware that prospective parents see her as a freak, which has added to her anxiety , and shred her self-esteem. Sensing a lot of bad vibes in a big city really stressed her out. She also doesn’t like being near any place that has fragile glass. Her powers tended to break lightbulbs and glass whenever she was emoting big. Even when she grew and rationalized her thoughts and emotions and surrendered to the truth of being abnormal, the fear and anxiety hasn’t gone away.
Mrs. Cavanaugh was a good source of comfort, who really tried her best with Rei. Rei is still grateful to her, knowing that any other sane person would have shipped her off to a labratory. Then Gosalyn came and brought a lot of chaotically good vibes. Gosalyn’s acceptance of Rei’s “abnormality” really balanced her out, allowing Rei to gradually accept herself. Then Rei and Gosalyn got adopted by an equally weirder adult, who came to care for them both. Rei is never lacking of love and support with her new family.
When I went for onions, angry duck got out of the pond and followed me. It hid in the bushes until I ran home. This duck wanted to run after me, but I managed to close the gate and left it in the garden.
So I'm cleaning my room and there is an angry duck somewhere outside my window. I paused my music and heard aggressive quacking from outside, now I don't know why this duck is so angry, but it is, and dammit it is letting the world know. Maybe they just don't like MCR...
