Dewpad

Dewpad is the friend ship between Laucnhpad McQuack and Dewey Duck from the DuckTales fandom.

Season 1
TERROR OF THE TERRA-FIRMIANS

Beakley tells Launchpad to get to the control room, but Launchpad says that he can't leave her alone. He wants to point out Dewey, who he believes is a mole man, as the reason, but quickly comes up with a different excuse. Beakley just tells him to go, and Launchpad tells Dewey to come with. Since he needs help...for some reason. He grabs a pipe for possible protection.

As Launchpad attempts to fix the train, he asks Dewey if he thinks it's nice down in the caves. He tries to sus out if Dewey is a mole monster, but Dewey catches on pretty quickly. Launchpad can't believe his best friend is a mole monster, and Dewey is surprised that Launchpad considers him his best friend. Launchpad thinks Dewey can hear his thoughts and awkwardly changes the subject. Dewey allows is and Launchpad thinks he doesn't suspect anything.

After Launchpad crashes the train, Dewey surprises him by popping out of the rubble. Dewey says that it's just him, his best friend, but Launchpad still isn't convinced that he's not a mole monster. Dewey says that this isn't a movie and Launchpad says that denying he's a monster could mean he is one. Dewey says that by that logic, Launchpad should be questioning if he's a mole monster, and Launchpad proceeds to do so. Launchpad then thinks that mole monsters can be good guys and picks up Dewey as he decides that they can be a force of good for their people, much to Deweys annoyance.

Launchpad gets the train on, and the lights temporary hurt Dewey. Launchpad sees this as proof of him being a mole man, and throws him out of the room before locking it. Dewey is frustrated as Launchpad freaks out. He tells him to let him in, but Launchpad isn't letting that happen.
