A little ways into her first year at Hawkins High School Max finds a little "Billy Hargrove was here" carved into a desk at the back of one of her classes.
A while after that, when she's looking for some space to be alone for a while she finds another written in sharpie on the underside of the bleachers out by the furthest field from the rest of the school.
After that she starts looking for them.
She finds another in the back of the school auditorium, another on one of the tables in the cafeteria. She finds a few more looking around in the boys locker room and bathrooms, and in the girls too.
She finds them outside of school too. Scratched into the side of a boulder out in the woods, scribbled on the wall of a booth at the diner.
Tiny little reminders scattered through out Hawkins, all proclaiming the same thing.
Billy Hargrove was here.

Fictional Yuu
I see a lot of people basing Yuu off of characters on TV and in games. They'll have characters (usually Idia) make refrence to this fact but usually in just a throw away line. But nobody really leans into the idea of Yuu actually coming from some fictional media in Twisted Wonderland.
Like imagine some character like Cater, or maybe Vil while advertising the VDC, posting a photo with Yuu in it. Only for some random account to comment "That's an amazing cosplay, it looks so much like the character". And of course they're confused, they keep looking for who in the photo is cosplaying but nobody is there. Eventually just asking the commentor who was being cosplayed. The comment is simple.
"Right next to you. That's Yuu from (insert anime/game name here)". They don't believe it until they look up the listed media and sees the character they think Yuu is cosplaying and are shocked. They look identical to Yuu (except animated). Their name, looks, and personality are all identical to Yuu. It is Yuu.
I see two (techincally three) routes this could go. A RomCom route and an angst route.
The romcom route revolves around Yuu having a canon love interest making the boys jealous (regardless on whether they entered a relationship yet or the plot was still building it up) and trying to imulate them.
Like all the wikis say that Yuu's feelings blossomed after the love interest nursed them back to health when they were sick, so the moment Yuu gets sick the boy is just rushing to Ramshackle to take care of them. Or if Yuu caught feelings first and it was some romantic moment, the boys try to emulate that scene so Yuu will fall for them too.
But than we have the angst routes.
A scenerio where all the boys decide to watch the anime/play the game that Yuu is from. Only for Yuu to catch them, quickly learning that they're fictional.
Yuu realizing that all their memories were made up, and if their a playable character all their actions were being controlled. That all their suffering was pointless, that it was done simply to make them more interesting or to entertain a bunch of other worldly beings that Yuu didn't know existed.
Yuu having an breakdown over everything. Their life isn't even their own.
Or
While learning about Yuu's world and story, they learn Yuu dies. And not just a shock value death that could be removed from the plot without care, their death is important. Their death leads to the ending whether that be Yuu sacrificing themself for the greater good or Yuu's death motivating the protag to take down the villain.
All that matters is that Yuu dies and Yuu needs to die. The story can't progress without Yuu there.
The boys realizing that if they send Yuu back to their world, their pretty much signing Yuu's Death Certificate. And Yuu doesn't know. The boys now know that Yuu is doomed by the narrative and is destined to die in the end, but Yuu doesn't. They can't even tell Yuu cause Seven only knows how Yuu will take the news that not only are they fictional but they're also destined to die.

there are 5 stages of grief for a fandom after the death of a major character. The grief sandwich, if you will.
1. Denial (“there’s no way they just did that”)
2. Anger (“how could the other characters let that happen?”)
3. Bargaining (“for two frames on this scene it refrences their fav colour. they’re alive”)
4. Anger Part Two (“how could the writers let this happen?”)
5. Denial Part Two (“that wasn’t canon. here’s 17388371 fics where they’re alive”)

Our Flag Means Torchwood
https://archiveofourown.org/works/50817688 by nogoodninny Jack and Ianto are investigating a sudden spike in rift energy, when they find themselves aboard some sort of pirate ship. At the same time Izzy Hands finds himself transported to an empty warehouse in the future, where he is found by a crew who were hoping to find lost members of their team members to come home. If there is one thing Izzy can understand, its loyalty to your captain I started writing this a few days before season two started coming out, so it won't follow season two canon, (for example, they're not flying Frenchie's new flag) but it will have some refrences to the new season as it comes out. This takes place post reunion on OFMD and after the Adam and Reset on Torchwood season two. This is my first work i am publishing, so please tell me what you think.

3.) First problematic ship since you joined the proship community?
These are some banging questions Tenko seriously 😩🙏KSNFKFK
Hmm, depends on the timing. My story for joining is that a bunch of antis in my community hated me for shipping a crackship between a canonically queer, but not lesbian character (I headcanon her as bi and nb for refrence, but am in the minority for that.) and a dude. (I'd rather not give the exact names, because then people could deduce my old blog) Like I get being squicked by that, but I got death threats and called a lesbophobe despite,,, being a lesbian. (my preferred label is Sapphic, but thats mostly due to gender fuckery, am excluively into women.)
But after I joined the proship community? Mirabel x Isabella. Only shipped that for a couple of weeks but it is still cute!

"We ensured that everyone is paired with someone whom they have no complicated relationships with." The nurse assures her, leading her with a hand on Miu's elbow. Miu wants to snap that she can walk just fine, thank you very much, but yesterday in physical therapy she only managed to walk, like, three meters before her legs gave out. Tch. She wonders who she's meant to be paired with- she heard one of the doctors say something about how the rooms wouldn't be co-ed, but she's not exactly on good terms with any of the other girls. Maybe Bakamatsu? Or Donkey-lips?
The nurse slides open the door for her, and Miu shrinks into herself on instinct. It's the murder bitch.
 Or, on book clubs, breakfast foods, and relationships that form in life-after-death.

The Tale of Death's Children
by Kennelkenn
Tommy was dropped off at his parent's door when he was just a newborn and growing up he always knew something was different about him. Maybe it was his electric blue eyes or his gold-like hair. All that Tommy knows is that he’s different than all the other kids at his school. What he didn’t expect was to be the son of two gods.
Techno has been having a rough time. Ever since his little brother Theseus went missing he's been searching the whole planet to find him. He’s in a bit of trouble when this man, drunk of his ass claims to be not Theseus, but his other brother William. Who’s been dead for thousands of years.
Wilbur's life has been shit. He doesn’t remember anything of his life before the age of 26, and he can’t seem to find anyone who knows him. Parties are the only stability in his life right now. Well, that is till he sees a man he knows. A man he’s pretty sure he’s related to.
What happens when the three unlucky brothers meet up again? What happens when an all-powerful god turns rotten and wants to rule the universe for himself? And of course, the only people who can save it are these three unlucky gods. You'll just have to find out for yourself

It's me, back again designing Genshintalia designs!
Here's China!
He deserves his own post since he's a cool guy. Also, this is my first time drawing him, so ye...
Anyway;
China is a 5-star Geo character! He uses a polearm but he can use a bow too. He's an Adeptus; known as the "god of storytelling."
Don't know what kind of role he plays, but being a sub-dps might fit the best.
Even tho China is 4000+ years old in Hetalia, In this AU China is a bit younger than Zhongli (about 6000 years old) But it would be funnier if he's older.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's the mini refrence photo of the design.
Tumblr media
From this on, I'm writing a bit of China's lore. It might come close to canon lore, but I'm gonna ignore that.
China is an Adeptus known as the "god of storytelling." He told many stories to other Adepti and those who he seek worthy. However, many were charmed by it and wanted to know the arts of Adepti.
He refused many times. He didn't see humans worthy enough.
Before the Archon war, he used to take the form of a crane. He didn't have a human form, but he could turn himself to other birds as a disguise. He could talk to birds and they were loyal followers of his.
He was the one who invented the "Liyue Opera." It was different compared to present-day opera, but some resemblance remains.*
During the Archon war, He died to severe wounds. Before his death, his final wish was to continue his legacy by letting people tell stories and let birds sing.
People got the gift of storytelling and birds singing.
many years later, he reincarnated as a human. He still remembers the stories and the knowledge he gained before he died. However, he isn't as powerful as he used to be.
Not many know his existence as a god or human. Only historians know him (+ Adepti.)
Nowadays he roams around Liyue Harbor. He also travels around Liyue too. He complains about how slow humans can be since he cannot fly anymore.
To peoples eyes, he's the type of god you either hate or love. He has the balls to tell people (and Morax (aka. Zhongli)) what he doesn't like.
He sometimes stops to listen to peoples stories. He might tell people his stories and use his vision/Adepti powers to visualize them. Kids love him but storytellers dislike him. Some might even challenge him, but you probably can guess who wins.
He can also be seen watching Yun Jin's performance. Once, Yun Jin tried to ask China, if he knows something she doesn't about opera. He quickly avoided her, but she always tries to ask him the same questions, if she sees him.
END OF LORE PART.
This might change, but I doubt it. Hope you liked my lore writing part!
Next might be Russia or France since they also have lore parts.
*Note: I don't know much about Peking opera (or Beijing opera) nor its history. From what I've seen, it kinda looks like there imitating birds or smth? Especially this type of costume;
Tumblr media
Idk it kinda looks like it.
Also, birds seemed not to exist back then 🤣

I promised y’all the analysis, so here it is.
Notes Octopath Voicelines: Ophilia: -Ascribes a trait to the gods when using divine skills (”Clever Aeber.” “Healer Dohter.” “Wise Alephan”) -Excuses herself when using steal (”Pardon me!”) -Says “Yours” when using Aeber’s reckoning. Clear sign of respect towards the gods. -Death voicelines are mainly apologetic. (”Sorry”. “It seems that I am finished”) Cyrus: -Commands the gods when using divine skills. Except Alephan, showing that he has respect towards the deity. (”Alephan, lord of Learning!” “Aelfric, give us strength!”) -Does not excuse himself when using collect or steal. (”Consider it…your tuition”) -Most battle entry statements are either determined or analytical. (”I don’t think this one will listen to reason” (Also nod to the divine boss music theme: they who govern reason) “I cannot fail!”) -Death lines express dissatisfaction and apologies (”But I still have so much to learn!”. “My friends… I am so sorry”)
Tressa: -Divine skills follow the format of “I summon”. (”I summon Aeber, prince of thieves!” “I summon Sealtigce, Lady of Grace!”) -Only apologises when stealing, but not with collecting. (”Sorry!”) -Battle entry statements are determined (”If you wont move willingly!” “Here I go!”) -Death lines express apologies and disbelief. (”It cant end like this!” “Sorry!”)
Olberic: -Only Brand’s thunder breaks his pattern of mentioning the name or epithet of the gods when using a Divine skill.. (”I wreak havoc upon thee!” “Feel the touch of Lady grace!” “Bilfegan trade with us!”) -Has the occasional slipup to middle English (”I wreak havoc upon thee!” “Whither thy fate!”) -Refers to magic as witchcraft. Refrence to him being the only character that is unable to cast magic without multiclassing. (Only refers to it as witchery if the magic is cast by an enemy) (”Cursed witchery!” “Banish their witchery!”) -Only character that canonically curses on voiceline. (”Damn!”) -Only deathline expresses utter disbelieve at his defeat (Have I… failed?) Primrose: -Uses a lot of “me” and “I” in her voicelines. Even when praying to a god (”Aeber, help me take what is mine.” “Suffer for me!” “I’ll shock you!”) -Many of her voicelines state what will happen to the enemy. (”You can’t outrun Draefindi.” “I’ll slice through you.”) -Death Voiceline is a copy of Tressa’s, but expressing much more disbelieve and despair (”It can’t end like this…”) Alfyn: -A lot of use of the words “shucks” and “egads” as improvised curses. -Laughs a lot (”Haha!” “Ha!”) -Apologises for dying (”Aww, shucks!” “Sorry guys!”)
Therion: -Sarcasm. So much sarcasm. (”I appriciate it, really!” “You’re too kind!”) -Does not speak the name of the Gods. Showing unfamiliarity and disrespect. (”Prepare for pain!” “Time to steal the show!”) -States the effect of the spell, rather than its name. (”Burn!” “Freeze!” “Shock!”) -Is very annoyed when entering battle (”Ugggh.” “Out of my way.” “Come on, I have better things to do.”) -Is very, very mad at dying (”Not now!”)
H’aanit. -Most of her voicelines are middle-english versions of Olberic’s so there is not much of note.
-Most of the difference is in the constant refrences to hunting. (”I will not be thy prey!” “Letten the hunt beginnen!”)
(Had this just vibing in my word for a lil so I hope it makes enough sense lol)

Fanon steph is mostly sue to either woon over her partner, eat waffles and make vine and meme refrences. She's like the "fun relatable" one
Hmm, i feel like that's somewhat similar to her Batgirl run, but y'all are really missing the point with the waffles - she eats them as a sign of reconciliation with her mother (which is a relationship she nearly lost due to the whole Leslie took her to Africa to heal for years kind of thing). She also eats them with Barbara while they talk and such. Mashed potatoes are her favorite food according to Robin 1993.
She is more lighthearted than the other characters, so i can see where the fun thing came from - but similarly to how Dick is portrayed in group settings that's not all their is to their personalities. Odd similarities on that front - both were tortued, died and were shipped off across the world to remain undercover. Steph has a villain father, and her mom used to be an addict, she was pregnant at 15 and gave up the baby for adoption, and Bruce treated her like a chess piece - a pawn to get his rook (Tim) back as Robin. She's happy and sometimes silly in Batgirl sure, but that's likely the result of years of therapy (I'm assuming Leslie had that as part of the death situation).
As for swooning, i guess i can see it in Robin 1993 to some extent, but that's Chuck Dixon writing about how he thinks a 15-16 year old girl would act and he made her prolife so idk i don't take it as gospel for the character. She still also has issues with her father in the run, but like it does sometimes come off to me as if she's just there to be a source of drama for Tim to deal with (narratively wise). She definitely swoons over Tim at first but by Batgirl she definitely is over the "swooning" phase.
Honestly i wish fandom would explore her relationship with Damian more, and maybe Dick because they've had that shared experience (now that everythings canon I'm guessing she remembers that), and of course Barbara and Cass as her mentor and best friend (and maybe bring back Wendy too). I've only read a few things with Steph, but Put All Your Faults to Bed by hauntedlittledoll is my favorite and features Steph and Damian. Idk i think there are platonic relationships on the batfam that are worth exploring more, her and Damian being one of them - she's someone who also sees him as a child first, and while he's older than her child would be, maybe sometimes she looks at Dick and Damian (and their age gap of almost 15 years) and wonders if she had kept her child, is that where she would be. Anyways now I'm making myself sad so I'll stop.
Edit: i just realized i categorized Steph and Cass as best friends when i ship them, but not in a swoony way
#i really dislike how characters get pegged as the one surface level trait they display if they're in another characters fic#Steph has gone through a ton but anon I'm guessing I'm preaching to the choir#ive seen people want to make her friends with Jason so they can trauma bond#i guess that's fine but you just swapped out Jason for Cass's canon roll which meh#which not a fan of ppl underscoring Cass's roll in the batfam to promote their faves but apples and oranges on that one#idk steph's pretty clearly on team no kill and would back Cass up if Jason and her are kept in character#like her dad's a supervillain and stuff but from what I've read so far she doesn't want him dead#which is similar to Cass and David Cain - Cass is upset when it seems he's died (same with Steph and Arthur)#idk enough about Jason to know if he'd kill his dad or not - but before new52 he'd kill most criminals so steph wouldn't be on board#also I've seen people ship JaySteph and just that seems like a recipe for disaster- steph doing all the emotional work and burning out#guys the best jayson ship is jason x therapy#i feel like as a fandom we also tend to downplay babs importance in the fam#partly because they were giving red robin tim her skills for *checks note* favoritism reasons#this fandom also just doesn't like giving the girls their time to shine - I'm guilty of this too i only write stuff about Dick#but even if you're writing about one of the guys if you include in character interesting versions of the characters you can make ppl#interested in them at the least - i got 2 comments saying they wanted to read more about duke after i had him appear in a fic once#and the fic wasn't even about him so like that's literally my proudest achievement in this fandom#rip the girls in this fandom like oof i should write more with them#batfam#batfamily#stephanie brown#anon#asks

Thick with Desire
Thick with Desire by Mega Ditto
He felt proud. Ever since coming to UA he'd seen nothing but improvement in himself. Him becoming a vampire… It had been a bit of a bump along the way, but he was still bettering himself. In fact, he was pretty confident being a vampire might have improved a few things in his life.
If only he'd known how wrong he was.
He knew the second it happened.
"Ouch!" Mina hissed, holding her hand up to the light to get a better look.
She was bleeding. - Or: Two months after the attack, Todoroki faces some new- maybe not that new- problems...

Goof Week: Sports Goofy in SoccerMania: GoofTales Woo-oo! (Paid For for WeirdKev27)
Tumblr media
Gorsh all you happy people and welcome back to Goof Week, my Weeklong Celebration of everyone’s favorite goofus. 
And today we have a special treat, something nice and obscure but something that still has a vital place in Disney History. Welcome folks to Sports Goof in Soccermania!  
So yesterday in my Goof Troop review I wished there had been another DuckTales episode with Goofy, you know maybe find out what happened to Peg, see Max and Roxanne again that sort of thing.  Whelp SOMEONE must’ve hid a Monkey’s Paw around here somewhere because I got this special instead on comision. This is a VERY intresting little artifact as it came out only 4 months before DuckTales, was produced around the same time, and was written by Tad Stones, who would both go on to work on DuckTales and even more importantly create Darkwing Duck. 
Not only that but it has some odd things attached to it: it’s the first major production starting Scrooge, as he had an educational short about him, the first animated appearance of the Beagle Boys and most important the FIRST time Russi Taylor would voice Huey, Dewey and Louie, something she’d do till her passing a few years ago. At the time of this article she has not been recast, though I personally vote for Cristina Valenzuela, who took over the role of Young Donald and frankly does such a good job with that voice I didn’t know if Russi had already recorded lines for Season 3 before her passing. 
So what IS Sports Goofy in Soccermania you ask? It was a TV Special from 1987, again four months before DuckTales, that was later sold on VHS. My guess is Disney intended for this to become a regular thing like the Charlie Brown or Garfield specials, but my honest guess is with DuckTales MASSIVE success they wanted to put all the TV Animation resources into making more shows to go with it. The fact the special is essentailly a Scrooge story with Goofy in it and Scrooge and the Boys were now tied up in DuckTales probably helped the decision. So we only got one of these and i’m proud to share it for Goof Week. So join me under the cut to see what a Sports Goof is, what Scrooge sounds like without Alan Young or David Tennant andto see me refrence the film UHF because I likes it. 
Tumblr media
 So we open with the titles which are neat and then open at the Money bin, we even get a great sign gag that looks like something Carl Barks would write.
Tumblr media
So Scrooge greets his nephews the way he greets everybody.. with a canon to the face... though he backs of firing once he realizes it’s them. The boys ALL wear red this special so .. I guess Huey won and now rules all three bodies with an iron fist? So the Huey Hive Mind asks Scrooge for a donation, a standard Scrooge setup, ask the rich asshole for money, as their trying to help the local soccer program and they need a buck fiddy for a trophy. 
Scrooge’s voice here.. is terrible. I do not like to bash voice actors, they are hard working talented people who do a lot of great stuff, often for less pay than they deserve, and this blog ALWAYS makes that painfully clear. And Will Ryan is not without talent: While he hasn’t done much i’m familiar with he did play Petrie in Land Before Time and was great in it. So while I don’t dislike him as a person.. he did an utterly DREADFUL Scrooge. He dosen’t really attempt to do a scottish accent despite the character still saying cannae at one point, and as for what accent he is going for...
Tumblr media
His Scrooge just sounds like someone trying to do a “foreign” accent and failing. It just sounds weird and makes every bit of his dialouge aside from one a chore to sit through. And the dialouge isn’t bad dialouge, it’s a well written and animated Scrooge even with the lower budget than Ducktales, but the voice just ruins it for me. Even without Young and Tennant to compare it to this just blows and the fact it’s paired up with the iconic Russi Taylor voice for the triplets.
This being Scrooge he instead fishes a Trophy out of the bin that’s all banged up and dinky and shoos them out. So in natural Barksian fashion the trophy turns out to be worth a million dollars. So we get some reaction shots.. INCLUDING GRANDMA DUCK!
Tumblr media
For DuckTales fans joining us who have ZERO idea who that is, since she sadly did not make it into the reboot and Frank did have ideas, Grandma Duck is Donald, Della and Gladstone’s grandma. She’s a sweet old country woman who lives on a farm and is in fact the one who sold him Kilmotor HIll, with her husband renaming it from Killmule hill. I like her a lot since she reminds me of my own grandma and like her she still works when she can. Donald’s cousin Gus loafs around and eats as her farmhand. As you can tell I like her a lot, agani because she reminds me of one of my grandmas so this was nice even if she was only around for 20 seconds of screentime. 
This ends up in the paper and sends Scrooge through the roof, literally when he finds out. 
Tumblr media
Two notes  before we move on: The bin has a unique really cool design , though I get why other productions haven’t used it: besides this one’s obscurity while cool it just looks a bit TOO nice for Scrooge. Even in 2017 while still damn cool looking it still looks practicle. This .. is not that.
Tumblr media
This looks like MC Hammer built this. It still looks awesome bu tit’s just not Scrooge sadly. 
The other is that his Butler is named Jeeves here, but looks almost exactly like Duckworth. Just feels weird is all. 
Naturally the Beagle Boys happen upon the paper too and their leader, no name given has a plan: Enter legitmately and win the cup all legal like, which dosen’t sound like it lives up to the beagle code of no hones twork.... until he brings up theri going ot cheat their asses off. 
Meanwhile Scrooge tries bribing the boys with a giant trophy at their house... with Donald oddly absent despite Anselmo having taken over for Nash by this point. I know he was still a bit rough at the roll, but come on. It’s just.. weird especailly for reasons i’ll get into soon. 
So Scrooge agrees to sponsor the boys teams so he can get the trophy back square, and is forced to buy a knew ball and here we FINALLY get Goofy. I say finally because this special is 20 mintues long and it takes almost a fourth of it for him to arrive. It’s just weird for him to not be in it for so long. I mean I don’t want THIS
Tumblr media
Flashbeagle didn’t take a fourth of the special to get to Flashbeagle. It did take longer than that to get to the title track but when your sitting on THIS
youtube
You gotta use it JUST right. Goofy here is not played by Bill Farmer, which IS odd as he did start playing him that year, but my guess is they weren’t sure if they were going with Farmer or the actor who played him in this special, Tony Pope, so they were trying out both as whoever DID get the role would have it for life. Disney takes the casting of the sensational 7 VERY seriously, as evidenced by the fact most cast changes are caused by death and unlike with Tony and Donald it’s clear Colvig hadn’t picked a succesor. I can also see why it’s a hard choice: while farmer IS excellent and was the right man for the job, Pope is still excellent in the role, bringing the warmth and energy you’d expect from Goofy and having excellent comedic timing that’s vital to getting the dog man right. I can see why this was such a hard choice, even if I also see they went with Farmer: Farmer just has slightly more energy to the roll. It’s a small diffrence and something that dosen’t effect the special, but it is a KEY diffrence and the reason Bill’s THE goofy to me even over his original voice actor Pinto Colvig. 
Also I may of mispoke there... see it’s not Goofy in this special it’s SPORTS Goofy. No really every bit of dialogue refers to him as Sports Goofy. It’d be like if they refered to then CEO Micheal Eisner as Won’t Think Through Eurodisneyland Micheal Eisner. 
So Sports Goofy helps them get a ball in an honestly awesome way and shows despite his clumsy manner, he’s damn cordinated, easily putting everything up and showing some real skill with the ball. So Moneygrubbing Scrooge decides Sports Goofy is his ticket to get the trophy back and recuits goofy as coach and star player for the boys team. 
So Asshole Scrooge meets his team the Greenbacks.. which are a bunch of random animal characters with no real personality. They are a hippo, a goat, expresso the ostrich, a navy (blue) seal,  an elephant in a beanie, a killaroo and a cheetah or leopard. But I have one question, really simple really easy one...
Tumblr media
You need 11 players for a soccer team, thank you google. So they DID get that accurate. With Goofy and the Triplets you only need 7 more. THIS is why Donald’s absence is glaring: he’s just oddly not there when they needed 7 other characters but Elephant in a Beanie gets in there. And it’s not hard ot fill either: Donald , Daisy (Because duh), Gyro and Grandma Duck (Because both cameoed but I only mentioned Grandma Duck, though this is ALSO Gyro’s first apperance), Gladstone (who as it turns out had a cameo storyboarded that didn’t make it into the final product), Gus (Since grandma duck) and Scrooge’s butler since he was in an earlier scene anyway so why waste the character model. They could still play the same roll as easily steamrolled underdogs and it’d make more sense.  It just baffles me that with such a deep bench to play from, they don’t use ANY OF IT in favor of the cast of Animal Soccer World.
The Greenbacks can’t play for greenjack, which worries Scrooge.. but Goofy is able to carry them to the finals, while the Beagle Boys make their way there too. We find this out.. via newspaper transition. We get a bunch of headlines telling us what happened instead of you know a montage because that costs money and they already spent 1.50 making this special.. they only have 50 cents left. 
So the Beagles recognizing Sport Goofy is the only thing in their way plots a kidnappin. We get a gut busting scene of the beagles all hiding in Sports Goofy’s house with him being oblvious only to spring on him. 
The next day with Sports Goofy a no show the team is bummed, even mor ewhen they find a kidnapping note from Don’tGetNotToLeaveEvidence Beagle Boys. Seriously give that to the officals. 
So Asshole Scrooge tries to give a rousing speech... and it is a sight to behold and the one highlight of pope as scrooge... it’s why I picked it as the article image. That glitching isn’t me by the way: it REALLY does that. Coupled with the yellow eyes i’ts just fantastic. So the team decides to morosely play the game and Hivemind Huey boos scrooge for not having faith in him. Instead of again you know telling the officials. Maybe assimilating the other made Huey dumber. I
So the game begins and the Cheating Beagles cream the Give Up To Easily Green Backs, while Sports Goofy watches from the other Crime Beagles hideout. It honestly reminds me of UHF: a dumb well meaning guy whose vital to something succeding is kidnapped.. it dosen’t involve Weird Al dressing up as rambo but still. It also makes me want UHF but with the disney cast. Fethry as weird al, Donald as his best friend, Fethry’s girlfriend for the comcis as weird al’s girlfriend, Gyro as philo, Goofy as Stanley, and Pete of course is Stacey Keach. I could go on but you get the point. Someone draw this.  Sport Goofy is a clever bastard and escapes by working one of his shoes off, taking a nearbye knife and cutting himself free.. and almost stabbing a beagle boy in the face but that would just make two. Sport Goofy escapes and the lunkheaded beagle boys chase after him IN THEIR CAR WHILE GOOFY RUNS AHEAD OF IT.  Goofy, he can really move! Goofy, he’s got attitude! Goofy HE’S THE FASTEST THING ALLIIIIVEEEEEE. Sport Goofy makes it in time fo rhalf time, rallies the troops and it goes how you’d expect: They overcome the beagles blatant cheating, win the cup, the beagles attempt to cheat with a rigged ball backfires and they all get arrested. It’s by the numbers stuff. We end with Scrooge deciding to dontate the trophy instead (though in a great bit asking if it was tax deductible), and posing for a team shot> We get some awesome credits music and we’re out
Final Thoughts:
This special is mediocre: There are only a handful of great jokes, it’s your standard “teamwork makes the dreamwork plot” that dosen’t work because our underdogs really CAN’T play without their star, and Scrooge’s voice hurts to listen to. Pope and Taylor are great and while Will Ryan is an awful Scrooge, he is a good Beagle Boy or five. 
It IS worth a watch though. It’s riffable enough with the sometimes sloppy unfinished animatoin in the last part and Scrooge’s terrible voice, and it is still is a neat oddity for 90′s kids like myself to not only see Russi’s first thing as Huey Dewey and Louie, but to also see Scrooge and Goofy with vastly diffrent voice actors, as well as Gyro and the Beagle Boys first animated apperances. The fact this came just months before Ducktales makes it all the more intresting. So if your looking for a legit good Disney product.. this is shoddy at best if well meaning. But as a bit of disney history, especially only clocking in at 20 minutes so it’ sa brisk watch, it’s worth a look if your into that. 
Next On Goof Week: We come on in To The House of Mouse where goofy becomes faster than a speeding punchline,  more powerful than pete when his family has to wrestle him to the ground to take him to the doctor and able to make tall leaps of logic in a single bound. it’s SUPER GOOF!
