Volcanoes are made of ground.THE GROUND!!! I'm sorry sir but you are mistaken! We put our on top of a flubbernucking Volcano!(sort of)

technically skyscraper is also "ground" the only thing not "ground" is flying in the sky or floating on the water
We have it on our own volcano. We haven't been upstaged by Xanatos in that regard.Sure, just like we let Xanatos upstage us by putting a castle on top of a skyscraper while we put ours on the ground. We are not required to imitate what other kings do.
Robo Rogers would understand that Mr Roger's soul is in heaven, and that he should try to live the best life he can while he's here.
because this isn't a Resurrection. It's modeling potential sapient life on the kindest soul we know
which should have approval <3 It'd be odd to make multiple of them, as it would be odd to make multiples of any robo-doppel.

Syndrome is a bit too dead to make a good nemesis. We win any competition by default because we weren't murdered by our own robot.Since we got a relatively positive business relationship with David and got tipps from him, it´s not a competition compared to with Syndrome.
Synrdome is/was our Enemy, so that makes things a competition.
That's step one, step two is to make the volcano fly, I'd say Xanay will sufficiently upstaged by then.Sure, just like we let Xanatos upstage us by putting a castle on top of a skyscraper while we put ours on the ground. We are not required to imitate what other kings do.

We're way past even with him. We stole his tech, We hired Mirage, We (inadvertently) helped kill him, We resurrected Genghis Khan and didn't get murdered by our own creation.*in Doofs voice*
"Thats-that´s not the point about it...the point is that I need to get *even* with him even past death"
A Melancholy Refrain
It was a surprisingly quiet day at DEI, no explosions or manic rants, instead it was replaced by a somber mood many would think odd for such a infamously zany company, that is, unless you knew what day it was...
The anniversary of the death of the boss's nemesis, Perry the Platypus...
Even if most of the employees had ever met Perry Dr. Doofenshmirtz's sadness got through to them, and even the most callous of the team didn't dare try to break the atmosphere. In fact the doctor was barely seen throughout the entire day, wearing a cearly forced smile the entire time as he robotically went about his work, never stopping to talk to anyone. The team as growing worried when he seemed to freeze up during lunch and left without a word, nobody's seen him since. Even LOVEMUFFIN was worried enough to stop working/grumbling to help look for him.
They searched the building top to bottom with no sign of him, and it wasn't until Monogram had an idea that they were able to track him down. He was in the park, at the Perry the Platypus Memorial, sitting on a bench and simple looking up at it with a defeated look on his face. Nobody else was in the park due to a light drizzle but Dr. D did not notice their approach, seemingly caught up in his own thoughts as he clutched something in his hands.
"I wish..." He started, before choking something back. "I wish it could have been different, I keep trying but I know... I know I'll never be able to make up for what I did..."
He places the item down next to him before standing and walking over to the statue. He traces his hands across the engraving and fights back some more tears.
Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
The words begin quiet before breaking out into a proper song, the musical backing seeming to fade into existence with the song. A slow and mournful tune as the doctor continues, not noticing his employees spying on him from a short ways aways.
Me here at last on the ground,
You in mid-air,
Send in the clowns
It's different from his usual musical numbers, slow and quiet, those watching feel as tho they're intruding upon something they shouldn't be, something private and precious. Yet as much ass they wish to they can't bring themselves to stop listening.
Isn't it bliss,
Don't you approve?
The rain begins to pick up, yer strangely enough it didn't fall directly onto Doof, merely framing the performance, as it the weather itself wished to see the song. Some of the viewers began to feel themselves start to tear up, Hego had already begun crying.
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move
He looks up to the statue, as if waiting for it to respond to him before continuing.
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
The music begins to pickup as Doof leaps up onto the statue, grabbing onto it and using to to dance around as he begins his next verse.
Just when I stopped
Opening doors
Slowly the powers of flashbacks begin as the viewers begin to see flashes of Perry and Doofenshmirtz as they first met, soon followed by various traps and battles.
Finally knowing
The one that I wanted was yours
The flashbacks continue to more personal moments, helping to create a birthday party, moments when one comforted the other. When they were sad when one of them seemed to move passed the other.
Making my entrance again
With my usual flair
Suddenly the flashbacks stop as Doofenshmirtz drops down and looks away from the memorial, tears once more in his eyes.
Sure of my lines
No one is there
He begins to walk away from the statue, the music grew quieter as he did so, the next verse barely a whisper yet still clearly audible to all who could hear.
Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear
Another flashback, another fight between the two, only something seems wrong this time, time seems to slow down as the sound of something being pushed could be heard.
I thought that you'd want what I want
Sorry, my dear
An explosion rocked the lab, the veteran members of staff able to recognise it as a room near the top, one Doofenshmirtz refused to let anyone enter, the flashback cuts to black, but it doesn't end.
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
The color returns as the smoke fades, Dr. D wakes with a start as he begins to search the rubble for any sign of his nemesis... Ending just as he finds a bloodied hand lying limp.
Don't bother
They're here
A flash of lightning cut though the darkening area, showing a flash of rage on Dr. D's face before it shifted into soul-crushing despair, his voice shifting once more to sadness and beginning to crack as he said the second line.
Isn't it rich?
Isn't it queer?
He return to his spot on the bench as the rain finally begins to close in, soaking the doctors clothes as he stares into the purple and green sky.
Losing my timing this late
In my career
He holds the item he was clutching up and the viewers were finally able to get a good look at it underneath the lamplight, a damaged little brown fedora the the man held close.
Where are the clowns
There ought to be clowns
Well, maybe next year
Then the dam broke, Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz clutched the hat to his chest and began to cry, morning the life of a dear enemy, and a dearer friend...
Nobody had the heart to interrupt him...
Not enough songs in this quest, and I was in a bit of a sad mood. The song is Send in the Clowns.
Owl House is canon. Eda cameod during the auction. There is just so little of it available that it will likely not be making an appearance beyond cameos. Amphibia also cameod at one point as well.Fact: I started watching Owl House. I now understand why there was a riot over Summoning Demons...
And wish that Owl House could be considered Canon to DVV. But there's not enough source material...
So alas, we will not be able to catch the slippery little fella, for he is covered in grease.
Ah, but what if that is my evil plan! After all, did I not previously state my end-goal was to create a self-sufficient technological utopian state that doesn't require any area outside of the independent and sovereign state of Doofania to survive?!I encourage you to consider what a complete balkanization of the largest superpower on earth would mean, who you are surrounded by, and how things go for medium sized nations in the middle of a large plain when open warfare breaks out. Especially ones that can't achieve autarky because, you know, two and a half states.
To be fair, I think the few people (myself included) that have stated intent to try to achieve sovereignty - though no one has seriously suggested taking over the world - know full well how difficult it is to achieve. Why pick an easy goal though? Goals are something you strive to achieve, and an easy goal just feels empty. I want to do something big and irrevocably world-changing! I don't want Doofania to just be the place of mad science. I want to write in the history books that we founded a whole new country! Sure it will be extremely difficult and we may not even achieve it, but I will be happy as long as a genuine effort is made. After all, fiction is a form in which hard-fought efforts can be made without personal sacrifice on the part of the audience. If so, then why not go for broke?We keep pounding in that 'become an actual monarch and take over the world!' is going to be a hard sell because, based on the way we see people talking about it, it feels like people do not understand how hard of a sell it is. And we want you to understand that, going in.

Yeah, but here's the thing, on the map? That border is the Hood River. Globo-Digi-Dyne (which is in Portland) is a conglomerate. Presumably if the CMs wanted to make this canon, the Zaibatsu could gobble it up. But it's also not completely clear which part of the Portland suburbs that the girls live in. They could be north of the Hood River, but they're probably south or just on the border.Going by the map, Portland is under the Zaibatsu's sphere of influence, not Bellwether's, though monsters like Man-Moth are known to leak from the Oregon Triangle.
I would still expect the influence of the Zaibatsu to be stronger, albeit divided. They are probably much wealthier than Bellwether. The Fluff docks also paints Zootopia to be in a rather bad state. Furthermore, I can't really imagine that Bellwether is particularly pro-cape. Simply because of the whole predator/prey shtick. We know that Portland has cape activity and the Zaibatsu have been linked to that.Yeah, but here's the thing, on the map? That border is the Hood River.

I'm not sure why you mentioned that last bit. You're saying it's likely for you to be wrong.
That same point goes for Bellwether. And as I pointed out, the Zaibatsu have much more reason to be spread to Portland than Zootopia. Now, I certainly would be surprised if they had not noticed the influence of Zootopia, but the Zaibatsu's would be right on them. That would entail stuff like capes. And capes are a really public thing, especially with the downfall of Kronos.My point is that the areas of influence are approximate. We know that zaibatsu influence is concentrated on San Fransokyo, and that Doof's Influence is concentrated on Danville, and that Xanatos's influence is mostly in NYC. In Best Friends Whenever, they live in Portland, which is directly on the border of Zaibatsu and Zootopia. North of the river, as I mentioned in my Omake is Zootopia. They don't live in Zootopia, they live in portland, where Globo-Digi-Dyne (as per their series) is the dominant influence. but Zootopia is a really noticeable change from the previous timeline.
So, you're telling me that I wrote my Omake wrong?That same point goes for Bellwether. And as I pointed out, the Zaibatsu have much more reason to be spread to Portland than Zootopia. Now, I certainly would be surprised if they had not noticed the influence of Zootopia, but the Zaibatsu's would be right on them. That would entail stuff like capes. And capes are a really public thing, especially with the downfall of Kronos.
There is also a fair amount of distance between Zootopia proper, and the southern border of Bellwether's sphere of influence. I doubt that a place like Vancouver would suddenly change from being a suburb of Portland, for instance.
Edit: For that matter, what about Calisota? The 51st (well, 50th with Flubber) state in the union? I think your omake gave too much focus to Zootopia. Anthros certainly would be interesting, but there are a lot of things that a civilian might notice.
Like I said! Planning to make Bellweather's life miserable is just fucking fun~.Guys I just realized something, Platypuses could be classified as a predator since they're carnivorous, at ;east as much as an otter... Bellwether would have made Perry the Platypus go feral if she had the chance, she would have made our nemesis go feral to advance her political agenda.
I think that's all the justification we need to tear her world down around her.
