A family!

Something (someone's) lurking.

#dt17 launchpad #don't fuck around with time and space unless you're willing to face the consequences #Someone very dangerous takes to the stage set in St Canard #Looking to help an arch enemy make someone pay #Launchpad's not ready for what comes of a simple decision #A single act of kindness that causes a world of trouble

[royalcoquina]

Baby.

#dt17 drake #Late night doodles with Roy #little Drake #A young Darkwing in the making #Also a holy terror the child was something else #A never-be-wrong ego only crippled by his social ineptitude and (ironically) gripping stage fright #He was also cute as a button #The troublesome kids always are. That's how they run the show.

Fragments

#dt17 drake #jim starling #dt17 negaduck #They're really essentially the same person #Jim and Negaduck a little obviously but Drake too #As they begin fighting each other as arch nemesis they begin to see themselves in one another #Hard to tell who claimed that piece as theirs from the beginning #A mutual seething hatred is about to rise #Drake isn't the softhearted forgiver Launchpad is after all

Irritated Dad Energy.

#darkwing duck #darkwing dad #dt17 drake #Drake's mostly a pleasant person but he's got a slight temper #It's not so easy to set off...a long wick to a large bomb if you will #But mild irritation? Common. He's got a specific expression his family gets when they're on his last nerve #Launchpad finds it cute. Gosalyn thinks he's annoying. Neither are at all intimidated.

In a poorly-lit labratory under F.O.W.L. ...

#gandra dee #Science experiments with no boundaries rules or proper safety equipment #I imagine Gandra will start working for McDuck's labs and just do something off the cuff that scares the crap out of Fenton #Grow up in a villain organization does not equip you with many safety skills #But she's also learned things they wouldn't necessarily teach you in a controlled setting #She's a very crafty scientist with more than a handful of achievements unfortunately #They were used by a side that didn't have a good ending in store for her #Also I find it hilarious that Beaks basically was trying to use her as an undercover flirt like #She didn't have the self respect to tell him to take a long hike off a short bridge because money #I can understand though I suppose

Kids.

#drakepad #fendra #dt17 #I don't recall if Fenton and Gandra had official ages but I always thought them a little younger than the other two #Still in their late twenties #We were robbed of baby Fenton #A chaos-causing daydreamer with a million ideas and selective concentration #Gandra was a lot shyer and very quiet #LP a blank baby-faced kid with no attention span #Drake was a smarmy little brat but with a sense of Justice

Another late night animation test

#drakepad #you know me by now you know that it is #I'm working on a bigger project but I need to make my movement and expressions better first #So take this little blip of a project #Of a jealous Drake who doesn't know how to ask his partner to make St. Canard his home base #And in trying comes off a little more wistful than he meant to

[royalcoquina]

Waiting for darkness to fall.

#dt17 drake #darkwing duck #Drake looks forward to causing chaos/saving people heroically every night #He honestly is happier than he's ever been in his life #His daughter and husband waiting for him at home on weeknights #Joining him on weekends when there's no school #Fully becoming /his/ version of Darkwing Duck- and refusing to let Jim sully the name for him #It's his city. He savors every second of it.

The emotional core of the family.

#mallard mcquack family #He really cemented himself in this situation as a parental figure early huh #LP's the kind of person you just can't help but open up to #His words might not /always/ be helpful but you can be damn well sure they come from nonjudgmental love #LP's got the biggest heart of the crew #Gos' been through a lot the gentle understanding is good for her

[royalcoquina]

J is for Jackass.

#jim starling #My favorite little bastard #He honestly was an underrated actor in his past #He definitely had the passion and vision of someone destined to go far #It's just a shame his skills clashed with the prima donna attitude he had #You can't go about acting like that before you hit it big- and that's where his major downfall was #His pride kept him from advancing and his ego kept him from popularity #If you're perfect you'll never improve and if you are unliked you never get other gigs so #Eventually no one can deal with him anymore and his career fizzles out #He was a chipper young thing back in the day though. Bright eyed and excited for the future #Much like another actor we know

[royalcoquina]

Wait, I've been up for how long?

#drakepad #your partner comes down to kiss you good morning and wait what? #Drake can get to brooding pretty heavily if you leave him alone for too long without positive attention #The man craves an audience but can get lost in the seriousness of what he does #LP doesn't always understand that but he's good for him regardless #Drake's the best in his eyes and he's always proud of him #It's a more humbling praise than Drake's ever looked for and it does him better than anything else #Late night doodles

[royalcoquina]

Don't monologue, kids.

#dt17 #dt17 drake #dt17 launchpad #jim starling #Right before everything goes awry #Naturally cheap McDuck pictures keeping fireworks on set but opting for a giant ass electrode #Both Drake and Jim's origins as their respective identities #LP being LP as usual and will continue to be LP #Jim looked down on him and genuinely liked him at the same time #He needed the validation that LP so readily gave- but didn't return much #Here's where Drake can opt to do better.

Late night animation.

#fendra #gandra dee #fenton crackshell cabrera #Just something small while I work on things. #Gandra's so damn soft for him. #Her affection is hidden behind a wall of sarcasms and deprecation both outward and self #She'll get better at it

[royalcoquina]

Au in which Agent 22 enjoyed stealing people from F.O.W.L. so much, she did it twice.

#gandra dee #AU where Beakley stumbles across a teenage Gandra fresh into FOWL and isn't going to let her stay #Gandra gets to grow up in a little more stable environment #With much more assets at her fingertips- which are devoid of circuitry #She becomes the first Gizmo instead-- which might lead to Fenton becoming the agent instead I haven't decided #Role reversal if you will #Gandra is still Gandra however...you won't find her any friendlier. But her snarky humor matches up well with everyone and she's accepted #For exactly who she is.

[royalcoquina]

A heroic figure.

#animated gif #darkwing duck #dt17 #gif #My first time animating anything ever #I'm honestly real pleased with it #Coloring it was a bitch even though I cheated #My attention span is not very long this week #But it makes me think I need to try this a little more so expect the ocassional animation as I learn #I see all of you that reblog my things and like them and I wanna say here I'm grateful for you #Hope you enjoy this!

When one of your dads crashed the plane one too many times so you have to fly commercial for once.

#mallard mcquack family #LP's family/friends get kind of used to being shuffled around with relative ease #It's a while into being a family they take their first 'normal' plane ride together #Drake puts earphones in and goes to sleep #Launchpad makes friends with everyone within hearing range #Gosalyn claims the window seat for her own and plays video games and consumes snacks #So honestly not a lot is different for her other than the legroom
