MY BRAIN ACCEPTS THIS 100%!!!

So I’ve been driving all morning, and now it’s hubby’s turn to drive so I can type this out and post it.

@heythatsdeep a while ago posted about adult Huey marrying a superhero and I just thought about it again and had my own headcanons to share. @donaldtheduckdad here it is!

So Huey is a very logic driven character who likes being safe and having structure, he’d need someone who pushes him a bit outside his comfort zone but he could also compliment. The more I thought about it, one character seemed like a very fun option.

Gosalyn Mallard.

They meet in college. Huey’s been accepted to St. Canard University for pre-law, Gosalyn’s getting her associates degree, unsure what she wants to major in if she even decides to do more than that.

He sees her before she sees him, he’s never seen hair that red, shes staying in a female dorm in the quad across the street from his. He catches sight of her on move in day. But Uncle Donald is so emotional he focuses on that.

He sees her a few more times around campus, on his evening runs. She’s always coming out of the school hockey rink, gear over her shoulder and talking with other girls. She’s on the college hockey team. Huey thinks about changing his route, he thinks maybe its weird he passes the rink every time they’re ending practice.

His friends drag him to a hockey game. He sees her play, shes ruthless on the ice. She scores the winning point. Her hockey jersey says Mallard on it. He wonders if its weird he knows more about her than she does about him.

They finally meet in second semester, they share an english class, a prerequisite to anything else either of them want to take. Mid semester she catches him after class. She found out he aces all his tests and essays, and asks him for help. She’s on a scholarship with the Hockey team, and needs to keep her grades up to keep the scholarship and stay on the team.

“Huebert right?”

“Yeah… but I go by Huey.”

“Nice ta meet you, I’m Gosalyn, Gos is fine though.”

Her hair is redder up close, strawberry blonde highlights and copper undertones. She’s a bit taller than him, somewhere between his height and Uncle Gladstone’s. She’s all lean muscle. She asks him to help her study. She offers to buy pizza in return.

They start spending every monday and wednesday studying at his dorm. She teases him for being a senior “dorkchuck” but seems honestly impressed with how much he stuck to his guns and learned so much. He laughs at how much she loves b monster movies. They both love their families so much. Theyre surprised when they realize they both grew up with Launchpad in their lives and never knew.

He loves the way her eyes light when talking about sports or comics or videogames. They’re green, deep green, and remind him of a trip to the amazon when he was young. Green with flecks of gold, like sunlight through the trees.

He loves the way she calls him Red. He’s never heard her give a similar nickname to anyone else. He realizes too late he’s fallen in love with her.

She’s the one who asks him out. She’s incredible, independent, smart, funny, creative, athletic and incredibly beautiful. He can’t understand what she sees in a guy like him. She’s not overly romantic when she tells him. He’s dependable, one of the smartest guys she knows, he can keep up with her, isn’t threatened by her successes or strength, he makes her feel like the most important person in the world. She tells him she loves him first.

They spend the next 3 years of college dating. He can’t imagine being with anyone else. She meets his family, he meets hers. He proposes when they graduate. She doesn’t say yes right away. She says he doesn’t know her well enough. She tells him something he thinks is pretty obvious after she says it. She’s Quiverwing Quack, he can’t believe he didn’t figure it out. She’s going to take over Darkwing Duck from her dad one day.

“We’ll make it work.”

He can’t imagine being with anyone else.
