Anonymous asked: so I know duck ages are like, impossible to pin down bc cartoon ducks are immortal and never age etc. but I'm interested in what your headcanon ages for them are? like I noticed you draw Fethry quite a few years younger than Don and Gladdy when you draw them as kids, and I think you said you think Magica is definitely older than Gladstone?
man is it ever impossible, but okay I’ll try to summarize my headcanons!
Just based on when the characters were invented, I think Fethry is the youngest cousin, Gladstone is the middle cousin, and Donald/Della were the oldest. For some reason I think Gus is about the same age as Gladstone? But less sure on that. Because Gladstone and Donald are often shown in school as being in the same year/about the same size as kids I think they’re pretty similar in age, so like a year apart tops. Fethry I see as being one-to-three years younger than Gladstone because he’s so zany (and is definitely a more recently invented character). I’m not sure about Whitewater but just because he’s so scrappy and energetic perhaps he’s between Fethry and Donald/Gladstone’s age?
In terms of general age brackets I’d say Donald and Gladstone are in their mid/early thirties (considering Huey, Dewey and Louie’s age is probably about 10 in the comics, and I imagine Della having them when she was in her early twenties), and so Fethry might be in his late twenties or just hitting 30. Magica I always saw as being in her mid/early 40′s, Scrooge in his 80′s and Grandma is anyone’s guess man that girl is indestructible.
