My LGBTQ+ Headcanons: Ducktales '17 Edition

If the Pines family ever did a lip sync or karaoke battle, I’d like to think Mabel- to break people’s expectations of her singing a cutesy song- would pick “All I Do Is Win” by DJ Khaled and crush it(the version would be clean and Mabel would be older like 15). I also headcanon Stan lip syncing to “All Stars” to playfully mess with Ford(that’s the only way you can get to do it). 

What songs do you think the Pines would lip sync to, especially Dipper and Ford?

Sign This Petition if You Want the DT Reboot Creators to Run the Darkwing Duck Reboot.

It has been announced that Seth Rogen will be working on the reboot instead of the ones who perfectly set up the show- the DT ‘17 creators/writers. They should be in charge of the story they made.

My Unpopular Opinions: Winx Club Edition

Please be respectful of others’ opinions. Thank you! 😊❤️

1. I like Bloom.

 2. Musa and Riven’s relationship is overrated.

 3. Aisha/Layla x Roy than Aisha/Layla x Nex.

 4. The Nick voice dub is actually really good.

 5. Season 5 had one of the best casual outfits.

 6. The show should have ended after The Secret of the Lost Kingdom.

 6. The show should end while it still can.

 7. Bloom didn’t really do anything wrong in the Bloom/Sky argument in season 2.

 8. Selina shouldn’t have been redeemed or at least not too quickly.

 9. Stella really annoyed me until around the second half of season 2.

 10. The Trix shouldn’t have been featured villains for almost all of the seasons.

 11. Flora’s character was dragged through the mud in season 7.

 12. Helia’s character was bad during season 6.

 13. Giving the witch’s backstories so late in the story was a bad idea.

 14. Tecna was a bit too mad at Timmy during season 2.

 15. Season 3’s finale was really bad.

Does Anyone Know How to Write on the My Ship in 5 Minutes Template?

I really want to do this new trend for shipping characters, but I don't know how. Can someone tell me how?

Katara vs. Lapis Lazuli. Who Would Win?

I’ve been wanting to do some versus posts between characters from different fandoms. The characters I choose have similar powers to make things interesting. 

Although Katara is an extremely strong waterbender, I don’t think she would win.

Her control in water is smooth and strong, but Lapis is able to control the entire ocean as seen in season 1. Lapis also has wings that can take her as far as space. It’s possible Katara can use her abilities to travel upwards, though she wouldn’t be able to make it to space. 

Also, Lapis doesn’t have regular human blood, so Katara can’t use bloodbending to get an advantage.

Winner: Lapis Lazuli

What are your thoughts? 

Comment any characters with similar powers that I can analyze. 

Thanks for reading! 

Can anyone who has read the comics tell me a few or all of the bad/questionable things Scrooge has done?

I’m thinking about writing a S4 fic for DT ‘17 and it will mostly be about Scrooge’s redemption for his past mistakes. I‘m thinking of implementing some of the bad things he did in the comics for the ‘17 version.

Thanks to anyone who responds! 😁

My Thoughts on How Barbara Became Oracle.

I’ve seen people talk about this change and I wanted to join in since I have some thoughts too.

For the most part, I’m okay with the change the writers did. Young Justice is one of many DC universes so anything can happen. I applaud the writers for trying something new.

Though, I still have some problems with the change. It was pretty weird that Barbara automatically assumed Orphan never killed anyone before they met. I think the writers were trying to outright tell us that Cassandra’s story is widely different. I also would’ve preferred if Orphan made that decision not to kill or killing is bad on her own like what happened when she and her mother fought in episode 8.

I read Cassandra’s comic origins on her Wikipedia page and prefer how she decided to be a hero than YJ’s version.

Incase anyone is wondering about my thoughts on how Barbara became Oracle in the Killing Joke, I’m okay with this version. There are many people who said they didn’t like it because they believe Barbara was a consequence of Joker wanting to drive Gordon crazy. I can see where they are coming from but that was not my perspective.

From how I see it, what happened to Barbara was a devastating way to show the audience that heroes can face as much pain and tragedy in their civilian lives as them being superheroes. And that terrible things can indirectly happen to you.

I hope you liked my rant! Thanks for reading!

What do you think of the news that Tad Stones is involved in the new Darkwing Duck show.

Is this recent news? I haven’t seen it yet. I like that Tad Stones is involved in the project so the show will have somewhat of the same feeling as the original show.

General Shao (Childhood) Headcanon 

Warning: mentions of child abuse, bullying, terrible parent

Ever since General Shao’s backstory was revealed on the website I’ve believed he had a terrible (borderline hellish) childhood. 

To recap, Shao had the enthusiasm and brilliance to be a great warrior, but his body was too sickly to handle the physical training. Shao’s father did not like this and decided to design a strenuous program to build Shao’s strength. On the surface, there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong but I believe Shao went through awful circumstances that made him the man he is. 

In Outworld, especially in professions that involve fighting, strength is considered the most important thing for a person. No doubt Shao’s father, a renowned Outworld general, would express these ideals and hate the reality of one of his children being considered weak. He would do anything to ensure his legacy was considered strong, which he did by ignoring Shao’s physicians and crafting a training program that could potentially worsen Shao’s condition. 

Because of his family’s reputation, Shao would be tormented by other children. Being pushed around and called worthless or a “sorry excuse to his family tree.” This would fester Shao’s anger and his drive to become stronger like his father, so he’s willing to go through the program. 

In other people’s eyes the program would be considered abusive, but Shao saw it as his father caring about him. He would excuse the days long training, survival training alone in the woods, his father’s harsh words, and not letting Shao eat or drink until he perfected his moves. 

Shao would also inherit his father’s demented beliefs in what being a warrior is and what Outworld needed. He would hear his father complain about the kingdom’s alliance with Liu Kang, hearing him call the fire god a “scoundrel” and “the bringer of Outworld’s downfall.” He’d be taught that domination is the true way to live rather than peace, compassion is considered weakness, death in battle is the greatest honor, and the only way to fight is on your terms. 

(Some of Shao’s intros inspired this headcanon, such as one of his intros with Liu Kang where he admits that he’s wanted to kill Liu Kang all his life, and an intro with Reiko where he tells him, “fight on your terms or don’t fight at all.” Also, Shao’s disgusted reaction to Raiden offering to help him to his feet after their fight inspired the part about Shao being taught that compassion is weakness.) 

Unfortunately Shao never learned that his father’s behavior was abuse since the bullying he faced stopped after being able to defend himself, instead he continues this cycle with Reiko. When it comes to his relationship with Reiko, I believe Shao cares about Reiko like a son but only learned how to express love through his father. He saw his old self in Reiko and wanted to share his feelings of strength with the young boy. He trained Reiko the same way as his father did to him and the results were the same- Reiko became a great warrior. I don’t think he’s manipulating Reiko to tame Onaga; Shao genuinely believes that his young ward is capable of doing the task, but thinks Reiko dying would be okay since his father taught him that dying in battle is an honor. Hopefully if Reiko dies taming Onaga (it’s highly possible with how powerful and rabid Onaga is), Shao lowers his guard and shows genuine care for Reiko. At least a sweet goodbye or a burial scene where we see him mourning his lost ward/son. 

I don’t think Shao would be redeemed if my headcanon turned out to be true, but I would hope that other characters would learn about his past and use it as a cautionary tale on how striving for strength is not worth losing your humanity. The possible tragedy Shao’s story could take would be interesting, especially when Liu Kang somewhat created the beginning of Shao’s life to give him the chance for redemption, yet it’s someone Liu never considered that turned Shao into the person he is. 

I saw your tmnt unpopular opinions post when scrolling through the rottmnt tag, and as someone who grew up with 2003 and will adore it to the end of my days---- YEA it should have ended after season 4. SAINW should have definitely had more time/build up/repercussions but as it is now still sticks with me 2012 April is such a victim of the writing. When I was younger I thought I just didn't like her iteration but she really isn't that bad. Just not written well so much wasted potential

This is really just a fun fact that i didn't learn about until I was older: In the original original comics of tmnt, april was not white. She was black or mixed. I'm not sure where/when the change happened but it is what it is

I really hope you don't get harassed for your opinions, have a great weekend!

Hi anon! Thank you for reply and I’m glad to know that there is someone who understands my pov of 2012 April. Unfortunately, her character is constantly criticized, and some of her fans get harassed.

I’ve heard of that fact about og comics April. I’m also curious to know why there was a change.

Fortunately, I haven’t been harassed for my opinions. The fandom does have some toxicity problems but-as far as what I’ve seen- it isn’t as bad as other fandoms.

I also hope you have a great weekend! 😁
