see y’all on Tuesday! (⊙‿⊙✿)
meant to be an intro pic for my new pillowfort but the site keeps crashing (because everyone is trying to use it!), oops
anyway, just to say- don’t be sad! it’s not the end, just the start of a new adventure!
commission, and a fun challenge! they wanted a redraw of one of the early duck-snuggle sketches I did a long while back. It’s kind of amazing how much ‘my’ version of Magica has changed but I love Big Soft Beaks so fight me
cuttletoon asked: I was thinking about how odd it is that Magica De Spell doesn't use an alias. Since magic users normally have them to protect against curses... And then a remembered her name is /Magica De Spell/. Which, in retrospect, is like the most obvious witch alias ever.
GOOD REMINDER because I had a conversation with a pal ages ago about this exact thing, and we basically came up with a theory that it became tradition for people born into traditionally magical families to give their child a ‘true’ name first, then bring them up using another, so basically they never know their ‘real’ curse-able name? something like that. A bit like the Beagle Boys all going by their prison numbers instead of whatever they were born as :’D
It’s also interesting to me that the only other relatives of Magica’s we know about are also magical, but Magica is a sorceress (someone who has had to study to be able to use magic rather than inheriting an ability to). So from that we can guess that maybe she was an exception in her family. That, maybe, she was born without genetic magic into a magical family, but decided to knuckle down and become the best damn witch the world’s ever seen in spite of it. That’s all theory though, I don’t know anything about her parents from the canon I’ve read (I don’t even know if there is anything about them) and I know even with my extensive reading that there’s a lot of duck comics that I haven’t read yet!
