Haven't talked about any of my current fics on this blog yet, so why not start now? Which'll it be... Ah, right, DuckTales: Family's Shortcomings, aka my negaverse fic.
How'd I even get the idea? From what our memories say, it started with the Negatales fic series.
For anyone needing an explanation... From my understanding, the negaverse (Originally introduced in Darkwing Duck) is an alternate reality that flips core concepts of characters.
Let's take DW and Negaduck as examples, as those are the most used ones in Darkwing Duck.
DW is a heroic person with slightly... unorthodox approaches for crime fighting. He works for SHUSH, a secret organisation set on protecting the world.
Negaduck is the opposite. He's a meglaomaniacal conquerer who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He already took over his dimension's St. Canard, and is now set on taking over DW's St. Canard as well.
Anyways, enough of explanations for what the negaverse is.
FS follows the triplets, Webby, and Fethry Duck. Fethry, in this AU, is the most popular duck in the world, for better or worse.
The triplets are all somewhat switched around. Huey is more like a mix between Dewey and Louie, Dewey is more like Huey, and Louie is actually less like any other triplet and more like the level-headed one.
Webby isn't exactly one for adventure, or she wasn't. She still isn't like her canon counterpart, but she's the closest to hers.
Fethry is also, despite how he might act, a family person. He's just also obsessed with fame.
Bradford takes Beakley's role, being the housekeeper and spy of the group.
Johan is replaced with Black Heron. Due to how I introduced her, she doesn't have much character yet. All I can say is that she's self-conscious about her claw.
LP is actually somewhat antagonistic. He's rude, sarcastic, and enjoys the chaos the Ducks cause.
Beakley is taking Heron's place, being the enemy spy. She works for SHUSH, which, in this universe, stands for Supervillainous Heinous Usurpers for Shady Havoc. She's ruthless and efficient, but can still fail, mostly due to the Ducks.
Lena is actually in Magica's role, having planned to steal the dime, due to Poe being trapped in it. Why? Well, that story has happened long ago. Anyways, this Lena only manipulated Webby and the family to get to the dime. As of the Season 1 finale, The Blood Moon War, she failed and is actively looking for vengeance.
Magica knew about Lena's plan and tried stopping her without resorting to violence, as that just isn't her style in this AU. She failed, obviously. Right now, she's living without Lena, but is searching for her niece.
Mitzy the Krill is actually taking Goldie's role as ex of Fethry, in duck form. This was also inspired by Negatales. Right now, she's on friendly terms with Fethry.
Can't say much on Goldie, as she hasn't had much screen time yet. Only thing is, is that she's Scrooge's ex.
Speaking of Scrooge, he's a villain. Not just any villain either, he's pretty terrifying. All his adventures were done in persuit of power. He even tricked the Greek gods, angering all but Zeus.
Della isn't much better. She's an abusive mother that only wants the triplets due to an ancient prophecy related to a mythical artifact. She won't stop until she gets the boys.
Glomgold is a benevolent business owner that only wants the best for everyone.
Beaks is also a kind tech CEO, actively working on making everyone's lives better.
Zan is more of a "meme queen". She enjoys causing others slight inconveniences, but doesn't overdue it. Some say she resembles Waddleduck, but what do they know?
Fenton is a bounty hunter. He is also quite power hungry.
Gyro is actually more of a lower scientist. He's anxious and doesn't do much of the "personal ideas" thing.
Should be... every current major char? I think? Anyways, an insight into Family's Shortcomings and its characters.
