Scrooge McDuck x Reader: Love in Duckberg

Number 1 Fan

Your POV
I was coming down to the living room when I saw Launchpad with Sheamus watching a cartoon. "Good morning boys." Sheamus got up and hugged me real quick before sitting back down. "I am the terror that flaps in the night. I am the hair that is caught in your eye. I am Darkwing Duck!" I watched a purple caped superhero duck taking on bad guys. "What are you two watching?" "DARKWING DUCK!!!", Sheamus and Launchpad replied happily.

I smiled at both of them and went to see Scrooge with Eleanor. "Mama! We made cookies!" I smiled at her enthusiasm and hugged her tight. "That's my girl". I kissed her on the cheek. "Oy! Does your bajillion dollar man get one too?" I rolled my eyes and kissed him on the cheek too. "Lass, you missed." I giggled and kissed him on the lips. We got the cookies out of the oven and served some to Launchpad and Sheamus after they cooled down.

The cartoon was a bit cheesy but fun. I sat down beside Sheamus and he took little bites, not paying attention to the crumbs on the floor. "Honey lean over the bowl please." He nodded and I slowly got up. Scrooge helped me back up and kissed my lips. "Lass, let him be. He is just like me at my youth. We listened to the radio and they had superheroes that told stories." I smiled warmly as I loved hearing about his youth.

"Oh my goodness! Darkwing Duck is going to be at the studio to sign autographs!" Launchpad got up and picked Sheamus up, very happy about this news. "Well we better get a move on. Let's go see this Darkwing Duck," Scrooge suggested. We got in the car and drove to the studios where Scrooge owned the building. My baby was kicking up a storm as I tried to calm it down. "You alright, Lassie?" I nodded as I rubbed my tummy. "The baby might be here sometime this month."

Scrooge's eyes lit up and hugged my tummy. "My beautiful lass. Glowing as always with our third baby." Sheamus gave us a disgusted look and we giggled to each other. We pulled up to the signing and Scrooge went to the building to discuss new movie ideas. Sheamus, Launchpad and I went to the autograph table and saw the actor who played Darkwing Duck: Jim Starling. We got to him as he was looking bored out of his mind. "Darkwing Duck sir?", Launchpad said. "You know who I am?! People seem to forget all about me." Sheamus smiled at him and asked for his autograph.

Launchpad got his autograph and fainted. I struggled to get him up, but Jim got to my side and helped him back up to his feet. "A pregnant citizen should never lift a finger." Launchpad woke up and we went to the studio building where we saw Scrooge discussing a movie idea to an executive. Dewey somehow tagged along looking unhappy about the fact that Scrooge owned a movie studio without telling.

We saw the pitch to the movie that starred Darkwing Duck, but it was too dark. "I don't like it," Dewey said. "What?!," the executive asked. "It's too boring and what was with the dark backgrounds." Sheamus responded with a raspberry noise. Scrooge told the executive that Dewey is in charge of the ideas for the movie and we went to the building where the movie would take place. Another fan who came by us was a fan of Darkwing Duck. "Oh my I am so excited to see Darkwing Duck on the big screen!"

Jim Starling was about to get in the movie with his usual attire and we were happy to see this happen. "What do you mean I'm not in the film?!", Jim asks angerily to the executive. "We are almost done with the movie just we need to add Darkwing Duck in CGI." Jim tackles fan due to him voicing Darkwing Duck.

Launchpads POV
I rushed out to see Jim Starling on the ground. "Mr. Darkwing, what do we do?" "Well I will not give up my chance of being in that movie. I will distract the guards and you get that fan who stole my spotlight." I wasn't so sure about this as Darkwing never would want to capture an innocent bystander. "But isn't that wrong?" "You can be part of my fan club and be the president." I was so happy about this and I wanted to please him. "I'm on it! Say the phrase!" Jim smiled and said, "Let's get dangerous!"

He distracted a nearby guard while I saw the trailer for that imposter of Darkwing Duck. I dropped in and didn't see him in here. The door was locked. "Oh no! I'm trapped! Help! Somebody help me!!" The door got kicked down by the voice actor. "Fear not citizen-hey it's you! What are you doing in my trailer?" I walk to the door. "Definitely not locking you up to save the movie." I locked the door, but the actor wasn't so happy about it.

We got into a bit of a tussle with him launching into the bathroom. "Listen I wanted to be a hero so I can save the Darkwing Duck movie." "So you are going to hold me hostage? Yeah real heroic". We fought a bit before we got caught up in the merchandise in his trailer. This lunchbox I saw I remembered having it as a kid. "Believe or not I wasn't the coolest kid growing up. I then saw a superhero show and no matter how many times he got electrocuted, shot, blown up." "Property damage he caused and planes he crashed," I added. The actor smiled and said, "He would always get back up and fight for what was right."

I looked back at the lunchbox and remarked," So you got that lunchbox and you were never beat up?" He shook his head. "No, no they beat up much harder until I kept getting back up." I saw a dent of a face on his lunchbox, presumably his face. "Look, I know this movie is not perfect, but I want to make it better. Maybe I can be on the lunchbox that inspires some other kid like me." I thought about Sheamus as he loves Darkwing Duck just as much as I do.

"Grab your cape we gotta address this to Jim Starling." "I don't know. He doesn't want me to be alive right now." "Listen to me, there is a kid who wants to be just like you growing up and he belongs to the director, Scrooge McDuck. We must save this movie before something bad happens."

Jim Starlings POV
I distracted the guards long enough for Launchpad to get that actor who stole my spotlight. However something went wrong and now they are chasing me down. I suddenly saw these women dressed up like Darkwing Duck and I hid in one of their capes. The guards were onto me, but I was a quick thinker. I knocked them out and dragged them away before anybody can see me. There was a crate to hide them in. Perfect!

I went to the crate and tried my hardest to shove them inside. "Mr. Starling there you are!" I turned around to see the one who is voicing me in the movie. "I am so sorry about...everything. You really helped through a very rough time and your heart is in my lunchbox. Come and work for the move with me. Together we can inspire a new generation and make the best Darkwing Duck ever!" He held out his hand to shake mine. I smiled and held out my hand and we clasped it together.

"Yes I will!" I threw him into the crate trying to shove his face in the crate. "Ow! BAM Oof! BAM Why?! BAM We BAM Explained  BAM Everything BAM Together BAM Oh!"
"Stupid movie star face! GET IN!" The crate finally closed after I tried to close it six more times. I heavily breathed before saying, "Showtime!" I laughed manically to myself.

Your POV
"Honey," I looked at Scrooge, "Can you watch Sheamus for me. I need some fresh air." Scrooge nodded as he held Sheamus who fell asleep before everything was set up. I walked outside and heard something. I looked around a corner and saw Mr. Starling and the actor talking about the movie. But before they shook hands, Mr. Starling threw the actor in the crate trying to close the crate and knock him out! I watched as he continued and he stopped. Afterwards he breathed heavily and said, "Showtime" before laughing manically. I was so shocked to see this happening! Why would he do this?! He spotted me and I was so shocked to come up with anything to say. "J-Jim". He smiled at me and said, "Quiet on the set or that actor gets it". He walked back into the studio with a hold of my hand to lure me back without turning back to the crate.
