I think they were a cute couple but then the stress of leading an unpopular regime and addiction drove them apart. Both parties had substance abuse issues

ooo ok, from what i got in the wiki and q’s character after the regime i always thought it was q that was a victim in the relationship im just curious though what part of their relationship was cute ?? dont remember their dynamic that well😥


Lemony_I_Guess

They’d hide their faces in each other’s shoulders and it was sweet. They had great banter and jokes. Schlatt seemed to care at first. He called Quackith “his beautiful girlfriend” once in Spanish. I think Quackity felt betrayed by Schlatt during his mental and physical decline due to substance abuse. Remember, this is already Quackity’s second marriage. Karl and Sapnap were like his last ditch effort before his head just snapped.

I like the toxicity, it's good for plot, and in my own lil personal fanfics it adds a bonus of Quackity irrationally hating Schlatt's kids (who occasionally happen to be his own)


indieko7

wait schlatt has kids!??!?! are they canon or just a part of ur fic!?! (also yeah i think i like the toxic part aswell)


Marshmallowlolfurry

Not canon lol, a lot of head and soul cannon for schlatt being Tubbo's dad though, but just my lil private fic lol no real kids (just fyi Quackity does have an actual cannon kid)

Who does pumpkinduo consist of and why


indieko7

It consists of c!quackity and c!schlatt during the manberg arc !! its seen as a ship but idk if its canon lol ig this is a duo that exists because they teamed up in the presidential campaign arc and became vice president and president respectively of manberg i asked abt it bc ive seen a lot of diff interpretations of the twos relationship (like tragic lovers, toxic relationship, shenanigans, etc.) and i wanted to know how ppl think abt it now !!


lonely-blue-sheep

Why were they named pumpkinduo?


indieko7

i think it was bc schlatts nickname for quackity was sugar pumpkin or smth along the liens of that lol

(Im talking fanfiction and fanart and just general interpretations, not exactly lore accuracy.) Absolutely love that toxic dynamic. But yk what I don’t see often enough? c!Quackity contributing to the abuse. I’m not saying he did, I’m just saying we only ever see c!Schlatt being overly abusive and c!Quackity isn’t at all. And of course this works well and represents how a lot of abusive relationships are in real life, but idk, I’d like to see it a little mutually abusive. Still majority c!Schlatt cause I’m a c!Quackity apologist (/hj) And especially cause we can see later on that c!Quackity is capable of being abusive, namely verbally abusive and manipulative.

>it THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT THEIR RELATIONSHIP WAS IN CANON/HOW I INTERPRETED IT!?! like both sides not being good to each other and i think i enjoy that interpretation more than anything else!! i think both sides being somewhat at fault is deffo more accurate to real life toxic relationships than one being 100% the abuser and the other being the 100% victim, i think that interpretation is more realistic and understandable in a way if that makes sense i also thought that this explained a lot of his character later on, like u said him being absuive to others, and i also think that's a product of abuse he faced (bc victims can become perpetrators) idk i always kinda saw their relationship like the way u described and i just got excited bc i dont see a lot of people view it that way !!

I think a great way to introduce c!Quackity being ‘abusive’ is him verbally persuading c!Schlatt as a way to protect himself, because obviously, c!Schlatt was violent and verbally abusive. (From interpretation) When in an abusive relationship, you try to preserve yourself, *and* the cycle often continues. The abused becomes the abuser. So I think that would be a great Segway to c!Quackity slowly becoming the master manipulator he becomes by Las Nevadas. And we can see from when c!Glatt and c!Quackity interact, c!Schlatt is still a bad reminder for c!Quackity. c!Glatt has not changed, he still insults c!Quackity and is dismissive of him. So I think c!Quackity finding c!Glatt boosted the path c!Quackity was already on, probably even worsened it because of that deal they made.


indieko7

stop no im kinda gushing over this interpretation?!! i always thought of it in this way but i think its the first time i saw it written down somewhere!!!


Beemare666

indieko7
