#his plant cactus is named Donald for obvious reason

[sunnytime54]

So @i-legit-dont-know-what-im-doing has this AMAZING DuckTales AU where the Duck bro’s are being raised by their duck cousin counterparts. And I just had to write some head canons about what it was like for Huey being raised by Fethry and what the event of “The Depths of Cousin Fethry!” We’re like for him. (I hope you enjoy! It’s my first time writing things like this)

Huey fantasizes about seeing the outside world. Since the JWG book has detailed descriptions of all the legends and monsters all over the world, but he has never even walked on dry land. (He is more adventurous than canon Huey and a bit more like Dewey)

Feathers quirks rub off on Huey making him have a bit of a habit to rambling on and on about science and the JWG. People who don’t know him can get the impression that he has a few screws loose.

The only show that is available down in the lab is DarkWing Duck, so when (or if) Huey meets Launchpad they get along right away.

Since I head canon Fethrey being younger than Gladstone and Donald. Huey and him have a more lax relationship. With them taking turns taking care of each other. So Huey still kinda has the oldest sibling mentality.

Huey can sometimes spend days tinkering on a gadget or experiment. He often forgets to eat and even sleep. Fethry tries to remind him but he often gets lost in science too. They take turns reminding the other to sleep/eat.

Being raised by Fethry has made Huey a lot more lax when it comes to order. Schedules still bring him a sense of safety and feelings of calm, but he can often be seen looking for his hat when it’s on his head.

The JWG rules have become a calming mechanism for Huey so when Fethrey notices Huey is getting close to a meltdown or sensory overload. He starts reciting the JWG rules with him and it help him calm down.

Hueys handwriting is almost unreadable. With the only people able to decipher it are him and Fethrey.

Heuy has a VAST knowledge of the creatures and plant life underwater and the back of his JWG is full of notes he took about plant life and creatures at the bottom of the sea.

Huey a habit of talking to the plants in the lab while he works and even has names for them

Having to patch up Fethry more than a few times Huey has a real nack for first aid and uses the plants in the lab to make medicine

Huey has a scar on his right cheek from an experiment gone wrong. Fethrye vows to be more responsible so that it never happens again.

Huey grew up quickly losing faith in ever seeing or meeting his family, but sometimes he looks out his window and wonders what they are like. He often and fantasies about meeting them.

When Huey met Dewy his first instinct was to study him like one of his experiments but he managed to refrain from doing anything “too weird”

Huey was DEVASTATED to hear about what happened to Louie/Rebel but tries his best to not show it. He doesn’t want to appear weak in front of his new family. He only manages to let out a “simp nod”

Huey is practically star struck when he meets Donald. He grew up hearing stories about his great uncle and “he was even nicknamed little Donald by Fethry!!!” He asks a billion questions.

Donald originally disapproves of the way Fethry has been raising Huey but slowly realizes that they just see things differently. By the end of “The Depths of Cousin Fethry!” they have a better understanding of each other

Huey gets very angry and starts to release the “Duke” when Donald calls Fethry crazy.

Donald is very impressed/surprised with Hueys anger while Dewey is a bit more scared of it.

Donald quickly teaches Huey a coping trick to deal with it. While fighting the monster. Huey continues to use it even after their lab sinks again.

After Huey and Fethry get dragged down by the monsters Huey goes into a sort of depression barely eating, sleeping, and talking. Fethry tries his best to take care of him and is now twice as determined to get the radio fixed and get Huey back to his family.
