Notes

And that's it for this fic! I hope you enjoyed, and if you did then maybe give the rest of the series a read :)

Chapter 5: Unexpected Alliances

Drake, answering his door: Hel– NEGADUCK??

 

Negaduck, storming in: My knobs went to work for Steelbeak!

 

Drake, confused: W-what?

 

Negaduck: Steelbeak is taking credit for their work, getting them to deal with everything, and threatening them! Ya know what he sounds like?

 

Drake: You?

 

Negaduck: No! I mean... Ya know them. In spite of being clever and sarcastic they’re also... fragile and weird and they have trouble fitting in.

Negaduck: And Steelbeak is taking advantage of their weakness, using their mental issues against them! Ya know what that’s called?

 

Drake: A Negaduck?

 

Negaduck: ...okay, yes, but I’m the only one allowed to treat my minions that way!

Negaduck: Now get yer suit on, Dipwing, we have a FOWL operation to stop.

 

Drake: When did I agree to that?

 

Negaduck, faux casual: Funny, it's almost as if you think your agreement is relevant.

Most entertaining thing I've read all week! I'm so glad you wrote this, it's top notch! I am so going to continue the rest of the series. Hope you're having a delightful day, stay safe!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-28

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed :)

Arukir Author via AO3 on Chapter 41 · 2025-12-28

Liquidator: Hi disappointed, I'm Bud.

Arukir Author via AO3 on Chapter 29 · 2025-12-28

Megavolt, much later: Wait, DIPWING LIKES GARDENING??!

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 2 · 2026-01-06

Sorry Honker , but extinct possibility proved they did rule Terra. They just weren't very smart about it, not even their scientists.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

Oh, hey, that's true! I tend to forget that episode because of the whole they-want-to-eat-Darkwing thing. Huh. XD

I'm glad you're enjoying the fic! 😊

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 3 · 2026-01-06

And that is why I'm on team Morgana.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

I hate Morgana, lol. But I do my best to portray her fairly.

Glad you like it! :)

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 5 · 2026-01-06

Negaduck is like this Big bully brother that shows up to family only when he needs something.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

Basically he's Angelica from Rugrats. XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 6 · 2026-01-06

The funny thing is, this isn't the weirdest thing Gosalyn has ever done

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

It really isn't even close! XD

I'm glad you're enjoying 😁

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 7 · 2026-01-06

I would reconsider things too.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

Anyone who is at a point where they willingly ally with Megavolt needs to reconsider some things XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 8 · 2026-01-06

*Facepalm* Oh, Launchpad…

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

We love LP, but he is more than a bit oblivious XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 10 · 2026-01-06

Oh look at the bright side, Dark. You were very popular in that world.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

One of the more ridiculous yet utterly fascinating episodes.

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 11 · 2026-01-06

Bushroot, you're still the most popular Darkwing villain in FanFiction and fan art. Trust me.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

He really is, though, isn't he? His tragic almost antivillain vibe missed with his 'snap and attack everyone' moments just make him very interesting, I think. And there's something just weird about his voice...

Anyways, glad you're enjoying it!

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 12 · 2026-01-06

They should add that joke when Negaduck ever teams up with Darkwing.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

I would love to see a canon team up. Negaduck has had moments of being actually afraid in canon, and has shown a willingness to work together with his enemies if he *really* needed to. He even played nice with Darkwing to manipulate Morgana! I think the right villain in the right circumstances could make those two work together. It would be SO INTERESTING

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 15 · 2026-01-06

How is it that I can see this happening in an Darkwing episode?

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

I pride myself on my ability to keep characters fairly in-character (except for all the changes I make to them), so I'm really glad you think so!

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 23 · 2026-01-06

Ha! You guys don't get breaks, you're non unionized.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

The Fearsome Four totes consider themselves a union. They just don't consider themselves one where Negaduck can hear about it XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 28 · 2026-01-06

*shakes her head at Gizmoduck* You're such a tourist.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

He is, though! XD

Giz deals with burglars, aliens, FOWL, crazy robots, and magic-users — Darkwing deals with all of that PLUS mutants, super criminals, demons, and his own dimensional counterpart!

St Canard is the Gotham of the Duckverse and no-one can change my mind. 😤

I'm glad that you're enjoying the fic! :D

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 32 · 2026-01-06

Good one, Darkwing!

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

He does have a point, doesn't he? I just find it really funny that *both* of them made the other's enemies more organized and dangerous XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 35 · 2026-01-06

We ❤️ you, Licky.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

Likky is best ❤️

I just feel like he's totally the type of guy to give a teenaged/young superhero pointers, you know? He's definitely got a dad vibe, I think. (Even that time he tried to kidnap Gosalyn while half-insane from just mutating feeds into the theory that he'd want to be a mentor).

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 36 · 2026-01-06

Very obvious

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

Very very obvious XD

NeoQueen23 via AO3 on Chapter 40 · 2026-01-06

Don't be afraid of the greenish ones, be afraid of the ones that still look the same, even after staying in the fridge for months.

Arukir Author via AO3 2026-01-06

True! Be very, very afraid indeed.

I'm so glad you're enjoying this fic! Thank you for so many comments, I really appreciate them. 😊

lbbendykid via AO3 on Chapter 9 · 2026-05-23

A roulette wheel for a compass? That definitely suits Bushroot. 😆

RaineParade via AO3 on Chapter 17 · 2026-05-25

This,,,, this is right yeah,,,,,
I like to think the villain's like Lp more, a mix of 'it pisses Dw off' and 'this guy is actually kinda chill?? I can talk to him about my problems and he'll genuinely help'
I love Lp<3

(Anywho, this is going in my 'Toy Plane' propaganda, I'm going to draw this I think, thank you-)
