Fast Move Damage Registration Timing?

Here’s the scenario that’s happened to me a few times and I thought I understood how it was supposed to go but it just isn’t going like that.

I’m using Tinkaton into a mudslapper and the fast moves are synced (like after one of us already threw a charged move). I throw one fairy wind (2turns) and then my charged move. They throw a 3 turn mudslap. I thought that my charged move would go through first and then after the charged move the 3 turn fast move damage would register, if the mudslapper Pokemon survives my charged move. However I just lost because the mudslap damage killed my tinkaton before I could use my charged move. This also happens to me when I throw 2 powder snows and the move into an incinerate user. Should the fast move damage be registering first or should I be getting my charged move off first?

Thanks in advance!
