Been thinking about combining all of Scrooge’s stories into one and I’ve thought of something potentially interesting (at least to me)
So Gideon McDuck, I don’t know a whole lot about him but from what I’ve seen he’s an interesting character but the one issue that I find with him is that he’s Scrooge’s younger brother
The reason why I find issue with that is due to the life and times of Scrooge McDuck, in L&Ts it was almost constantly drilled into Scrooge by Fergus that he is the last of clan McDuck that he HAS to become successful in order to carry on the family legacy, he is specifically seen as the one to carry it on due to the fact that he’s a man, his sisters can’t carry on the family legacy cuz back then if they got married they would lost the McDuck surname
However introducing another sibling to Scrooges family (specifically a brother) kind of….just ruins everything…. He’s no longer the last of clan McDuck they’re no longer depending on him to carry on the family legacy
I do wish more people included Gideon in fanfics cuz this could be a really good topic, Scrooge being upset that the purpose his father drilled into him was gone due to the fact that he now has a younger brother, like cmon…….the angst or even hurt/comfort…..
There is also Rumpus Mcfowl who…..I don’t really care for but I do find it interesting that he’s the son of Fergus but not Downy, implying that Fergus either cheated on Downy or got with someone after she passed which……eh
