Ok, so you know how they’re building up Della so much, Dewey and Webby trying to find her and all that? Well what if they succeed? What if she comes back into the lives of her family after 10 years? These are my head canons of how the triplets at least would react.
He’s happy and polite, but still a bit distant. Who could blame him? He always thought in the back of his mind that his mother was dead. HE had to take care of his brothers while uncle Donald was working, HE had to make dinner in the microwave some nights, sometimes he even had to tuck his brothers into bed. His TRIPLET brothers, the youngest of which is only 13 seconds younger. So yes, he’s happy that his mom is alive and back. But she’s been gone for so long, he doesn’t feel like he’s talking to his mother. He’s talking to a stranger. I relative he’s never met. It will take a while for him to adjust to her.
Can you say capital E Extatic?! He’s been working so long to find her, and he did it. He’s finally got his mom back. He’s always been a bit self conscious at school events, with all the kids talking about what their moms had done for said event (ex. made pie for bake sale, decorated, etc.), but now he can live it! Uncle Donald seems so much happier too, having his twin back. Uncle Scrooge is less cold having worked things out with her as well, everyone was happy! He feels he’s done something good for his family!
Let’s just say it bluntly, he’s pissed. This woman has been gone for basically his entire life, and now what, she just shows up again? Where was she when he got his tonsils out when he was 3? Where was she when bullies at school shoved him into the brick walls repeatedly? Where was she the hundreds of times uncle Donald had been passed out from work and he’d had a bad dream? Gone, that’s where. The thought had never crossed Louie’s mind that his mother was dead. He always assumed she had just left them with her brother and then took off because she couldn’t care less. Now she’s just set herself up in the centre of his life, kinda throwing it into chaos. He resents her for it. He wants nothing to do with this person. She’s not his mom. He doesn’t have one.
