Day 5: Nature

wow!! i am late!!! 🤩

here’s the one that was supposed to be for yesterday (june 9th... i saw some post for the final day already so i guess it's the 11th already somewhere??)

anyways i thought stargazing would be a fun one for nature

i figured that would be super neat in the houseboat... bc like... they're in the ocean, looking at the stars from the "roof" would be REALLY cool (though not a frequent activity, it does seem a tiny bit unsafe after all. also they kinda sneaked out to do it)

also i made the boys a little younger here. just because I wanted it to be something particular to the houseboat before they came to the mansion. idk

Smartest of the Smarties

Summery: Sometimes Huey hated being the smartest of his brothers. Based on an idea I had that what if there is a curse on the McDuck family where something will always happen to the parents so that their children have to be raised by their Uncles, which Huey figures out.

A/N: Written for @hueyweek2020 Day 7: Free Day. What do you guys think of this theory? Xxxxxxx

It was a few hours after his realisation that his brothers found him, buried under the blankets of his top bunk in their old room on the houseboat. Sometimes he hated being the smartest of his siblings. He was usually the first the figure out how bad things were. So, he didn’t know why it had taken this long for him to figure this out. Or maybe, if he admitted it to himself, it had been a niggling thought at the back of his mind ever since he learnt of their history that up until know he hadn’t let himself think about. 

“Hey,” Louie said, trying to sound nonchalant as he climbed up the bunk to sit beside him, giving him the chance to tell him to leave him alone, whist Dewey crawled under the blankets to be a grounding presence besides him.

Huey had long since stopped crying, but his throat still felt raw, so it took him a minute to find his voice to speak.

“Do… do you ever think about how Mom and Uncle Donald’s parents died young, so they had to be taken in by Uncle Scrooge, then how Mom… disappeared so Uncle Donald had to raise us?”

He could feel his brothers sharing a look of knowing that there was something more he was getting at but not quite understanding what. Again, he hated himself for being the smartest.

“What do you mean?” Dewey asked eventually, ever the inquisitive one.

“I mean… what if its some kind of curse. That something will always happen to the parents in out family so that their kids have to be raised by their Uncle instead.” Huey had always assumed that he would have kids, so that he could teach them about the world and the scoutmaster at their Junior Woodchuck troop. Like their mother Dewey would probably be too adventurous to ever really settled down and he didn’t think Louie had given it much thought yet. Not that any of them needed too they were only eleven after all. But still, the thought that if he had kids they would be doomed to grow up without a father, or that he would lose his brother and have to raise their fatherless children terrified him.

“That’s… that’s ridiculous!” Louie said. For the first time, Huey poked his head out from under the blanket so that he could look his brother in the eyes.

“Oh really? You don’t think someone would put a curse on Scrooge McDuck’s family.”

Again, his brothers shared a look because no they couldn’t argue with that.

“Well then maybe we should ask him?” Dewey suggested.

“Yeah because whenever we ask our uncles about family secrets, they always tell us the truth.” Louie stated. But Huey was finally crawling out from beneath the blankets.

“It’s worth a shot.”

The triplets walked up to Scrooge’s office in the mansion, their hands held tightly together.

Huey knocking on the door.

“Uncle Scrooge?”

“Come in lads!”

They pushed the door open to find their great uncle staring at a large board with photos and strings coming off in all direction that could either be his next greatest adventure or business venture or both.

“Now, what do ya think of-“

He cut himself off when he saw the look on their faces.

“Is everything ok lads?”

Huey glanced at his two younger brothers who were looking at him expectantly. He took a deep breath before asking. “Uncle Scrooge, we wanted to talk to you about curses?”

“Have you been into my garage again?” He asked, sitting down behind his desk.

“No!” Huey said despite Dewey coughing awkwardly into his sleeve. “We wanted to ask you if you knew about a curse on our family.”

“You’re going to have to be more specific lad.”

“One where Uncles are cursed to look after their dead siblings’ children.”

Uncle Scrooge sunk into his chair, looking more exhausted than Huey had ever seen him before. With every second that passed Huey could feel his anxiety building. Just before he reached his breaking point Scrooge spoke.

“When your Mother… disappeared, I wondered the same thing myself. I researched everything about curses I could get my hands on, visited every spiritual person I knew and some I didn’t, and they all told me the same thing, that there was no curse like that on my family. It was just dumb luck.”

Huey let out the breath he didn’t know he was holding and felt his brothers do the same.

Feeling a hand on his shoulder, Huey looked up to see that their uncle had come out from behind his desk to kneel in front of them.

“Now kids, I want you to promise me that you’ll remember what family means. Its means being they’re for the people you love no matter what. I forgot and it cost me eleven years of your lives. I do not want the same to happen with you three.”

Huey was the first to tackle him into a hug, his brothers not far behind him, understanding what his Uncle was saying. That’s whilst he cannot promise that nothing will ever happen to them, their family would always be there if anything did. For once Huey was glad that he was smart enough to figure it out.

Baby Huey finds Unca’s voice soothing, Donald finds Huey soothing. Its a win-win.

Day 2 - Big Brother

“Louie, you should stop moving.” Huey and Louie were lost who-knows-where inside a giant temple thanks to Dewey, who accidentally – yes, it was a total accident this time, he didn’t mean to do it at all – activated a trap and both triplets in red and green fell in it. The worst part was that Louie broke one of his legs.

Like they had inherited their mom and uncle’s bad luck.

“But it hurts!” complained Louie while Huey was trying to splint his leg. Huey looked at him worriedly. He knew it perfectly well – the same happened to him once in a Junior Woodchuck trip. He knew how it hurt, but he also knew he should splint Louie’s leg. If he didn’t, things would only get worse to his little brother.

“I know Lou. But if you don’t want it to hurt more, you’ve to let me do this!” he said, maybe harder than he’d sound. Louie now seemed scared.

Great job calming your hurt and scared brother Huey… the older triplet sighed. Having his brother in panic wouldn’t help at all.

“Once I’m finished, we’ll go find Uncle Scrooge. He’ll know what to do.” He explained “all what I’ve to do is put those branches on both sides of your leg and tie them up. Doing so, your leg will hurt less, I promise.” Huey offered Louie a kind smile to calm him down. Louie looked at him and he seemed to calm down a little.

“Okay… but try to do it fast… please…” he begged.

Huey nodded and worked as fast as he could. Once he finished, he smiled.

“Do you think you can walk?” asked then.

Louie sighed tremblingly and tried to stand up, but soon he fell down again.

“I can’t” he admitted.

Huey looked at him worried. He didn’t want to leave Louie alone. But they couldn’t be there, they had to find the others. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. He bent next to Louie.

“Come on Lou, I’ll carry you.”

“Are you sure?” asked Louie totally surprised.

“Of course! I won’t leave you behind. Come on, let’s go.”

A little hesitant, Louie climbed on Huey’s back, and he carried, trying to make Louie feel comfortable. Huey started walking, and Louie used his phone as a flashlight. While walking Louie looked at Huey, even if he couldn’t see his full face, he could see his determined eyes. Huey seemed ready to die for him if it was necessary. This made him smile.

“Thank you.” He said.

“Thank you for what?” asked Huey surprised.

“For not give up on me.”

“Oh, I would never, you’re my little brother, I trust you.” Huey turned his head so Louie would see his smile. Louie smiled even more.

“You’re the best big brother ever!”

Huey looked at him surprised and then smiled.

“Thank you, Lou.”

Huey Week Day 6: Responsibility

just wanted to do a funny one this time

@hueyweek2020

yes, it’s that picture. i imagine that being responsible for two younger siblings would feel pretty much like this.

edit: the first one was supposed to be transparent idk what happened

did one with the og picture as the background too, but it had really low resolution. also i had to erase the original people from the photo so it looks a bit funky. it’s under the cut
