Hi, I'm back.

Imagine a scenario where, sometime, post Descendants 3 but pre RoR, Ben, the VKs, and the Sea Three are having a bonding night, and they play Truth or Dare, and Harry picks truth (Uma makes him because he's already done dare five times in a row and it's getting more ridiculous with each dare because they all know he'll do it) and this happens

Evie: Harry, what's something interesting about yourself that you've never told anyone?

Harry: I tell Uma everything

Uma: He does

Evie: Okay, excluding Uma, what's something interesting about yourself that you've never told anyone?

Harry: Me mum's the Queen of hearts

Mal: This isn't like Lie, Dare, or Die on the Isle. We're actually supposed to tell the truth in this version

Harry: I jus' did

Jay: Haha, very funny. Now, what's something that's true for real?

Uma: He actually IS telling the truth, you guys

Mal: Not you too!

Harry: Ask my sisters if you don' believe me! Ask my da!

Harry: Wait, scratch tha. Last time someone brought up my mum to my da, it didn go so well

Uma: Wait, was that the time that Hades-

Harry: Aye

Mal: What about my dad?

Harry: He brought up high school, which led to bringing' up mum 'cause they all went together-

Mal: Hook went to high school with my dad?!

Uma: And your mom. They were all in a gang together with my aunt

Jay: Huh?!

Harry: Anyway, long story short, my da nearly hooked Mal's da when he mentioned me mum

Mal: WHAT?!

Ben: ...Maybe we should skip Harry's turn for now

-

Just pretend that years later, Ben, the VKs, and the Hook family were at Auradon Prep with Uma (I choose to believe that Harry is Uma's vice principal until proven otherwise)

Bridget: *shuffling cards*

Uma: *her intimidating fake smile* Hi. Do you mind?

Bridget: *gets up* I do, actually-

Hook: *spits out drink* BRIDGET?!

Bridget: *drops cards* JAMES?!

Harriet and Harry: MUM?!

Red: *looking at the oldest Hooklings* "Mom"? What do you mean "MOM"?!

Bridget: HARRIET?!?! HARRY?!?!

CJ: WAIT, THAT'S MAMA?!

Bridget: CALISTA?!?!?!

Ben and the VKs: HARRY WAS TELLING THE TRUTH?!

Harry: I TOLD YA LOT I WAS TELLIN' THE TRUTH!!!

Uma: IS NOW REALLY THE TIME?!

-

Anyway, ignoring the terribly written accent, I just got this in my head and thought it was funny, so I wanted to share. Thanks for taking the time to answer my other asks!

You are very welcome! :D

Ha ha ha ha ha! XD Oh I love this!! It's so in character with the VK's playing Truth or Dare! And I SO WISH that was the way that scene had gone in RoR! It would have been hilariously slightly sadly awesome!

Thank you for this! :D

[descenderintofantasy]

I'm curious: What is the age difference between the older Hooklings and Red?

Also, what is the relationship with QoH Bridget, like with her three oldest children? Both pre and post Isle?

No pressure! I'm really enjoying your Hook × Bridget = Hooklings + Hookling Jr Red

I love your curiosity! :D

So I picture Harriet being 5 years older than Red, Harry is 3 years older than her and CJ is only 1 year older.

As to Bridget's relationship with them, call me 'rose-tinted' if you like, but pre Isle I picture her being a really loving mother. As in my mind, it was her older kids and Hook being taken away that turned Bridget fully 'heartless' through the trauma.

As to post Isle I really don't know... I mean at that point the whole family has been through trauma...the Hookings have been made to grow up without Bridget. (at that point they would be 21, 19 and 17 respectively) Meaning, sadly, Bridget herself has missed basically their whole lives through no fault of her own... They won't really know her, and she won't really know them any more. Harriet will have the clearest memories. As she was, five when taken, so that would probably be the easiest relationship to grow back from...But in contrast CJ was only a year, as I said in my post the clearest memories she'd have is Bridget's scent and the word 'mama'. Harry at three would probably be somewhere in the middle. Plus Hook would have been a 'single father' for 10+ years, even for him Bridget being there again would take some getting used to again.

And then there's Red, whose suddenly gone from being an 'only child' and (as far as I can tell by the movie) not knowing who her father is/was to having three older siblings AND a father in her life. That would be a lot for her to adjust to and deal with. Especially if she sees Bridget giving Harriet/Harry/CJ affection when she's spent her whole life kept at arms length and being told she's not good enough, That would cause a lot of 'Why are THEY so special/why didn't/doesn't she do that with ME?/What did I do WRONG to be frozen out by my MOTHER?' thoughts.

In short, most likely the whole family would need therapy, and it sadly wouldn't be an easy situation to fix. But they would get there eventually.

Thanks for the ask! :D

[descenderintofantasy]

I wasn't going to reply to this, as I'm not going to get in an argument. But it truly makes ME sick that you can be so hateful towards a teenage girl! A teenage girl who grew up abused and was morally taught to do all the wrong things for her mother's attention and affection. She didn't know any better. Furthermore, Mal exhausted every other option before turning to the love spell--she tried straight up getting the wand herself/with Jay and the others. She tried befriending Jane for access to it. She tried asking Ben if she and her friends could be up front at the coronation. The love spell was the last option. Mal was running out of time when she knew she had to get that wand becuse her and her gangs lives depended on it! What, did you think Maleficent would just take them failing in her plan lightly? As well, Mal willingly and knowingly of the possible repercussions gave Ben the antidote, giving him back his choice. He could have left Mal and gotten back with Audrey at any time after his coronation. Mal gave him that option, knowing that she'd most likely die/be in for a life where she wished she was dead for it, if Ben sent her back to the Isle and she didn't have the wand.

Point One: While yes, you are correct that Audrey's feelings for Ben are never really explored. Flat out KISSING another guy not even a minute after Ben had broken up with her DOES NOT really scream genuine/deep feelings for him. Audrey did not even attempt to speak to Ben about what was going on before kissing Chad. Or even at any time afterwards. And please do not give me the "but it was up to Ben to talk to her!" line. Audrey is not an infant, she had a working mouth and legs to start the conversation. Do you not think that any girl who had been dating a guy for at least a year would want to talk to her boyfriend if he exhibits odd behaviour? Yet Audrey does not, she moves on, 30 seconds afterwards, showing she saw no true value in her and Ben's relationship. Mal is the one shown to have greater care for Ben, to the points of trying to save his life when she thinks he drowned even when doing so would put HER life in jeopardy, and "taking herself out of the picture" and going back to the Isle becuse she thought it would be best for him. That is DEEPER, MORE GENUINE FEELINGS for Ben than Audrey is ever shown to have.

Point Two: I never said I blamed Ben for the changes that happened to Mal. I merely wanted to point out that Mal put a lot of effort into trying to make things easier for Ben. Becuse she knew that he would more than likely get flack for her status as a VK. And on the night that she was supposed to get her 'pay off' (becoming Ben's Lady) it's seemingly taken away from her. Making all that effort be in vain. As to everyone being upset with Ben. Do remember that Ben planned the ENTIRE EVENT for Mal. So of course people are going to be upset and confused that Ben suddenly turns up with a different girl. A girl that Auradon doesn't even know instead of Mal When, as said, the cotillion itself was planned around her. Judging by the reactions in D3 to her becoming future queen, people have grown to like Mal. At least more than they did Audrey, so yes, people are going to be upset that Ben 'blows Mal off' for seemingly no reason. No one but Mal. Ben and the other VK's there knew what had happened on the Isle. Or that Mal and Ben 'weren't together' any more. So as far as the kingdom knows this event's focus was Mal and then Ben seems to suddenly throw that out the window, and demands that they pay attention to Uma with no explanation. Tell me that you wouldn't be upset in that type of situation. Furthermore, once Ben made his wishes clear to Mal very coldly, and harshly I might add, thanks to Uma. What does Mal do? Does she throw a fit? Or try and make Ben take notice of her by draping herself over another guy? Or threaten the kingdom to demand Ben come back to her? No! She starts to LEAVE. Quietly and without fuss becuse she thinks that's what Ben wants, and she loves him enough to give him that. Everything Mal has done before and at cotillion was. FOR. BEN, even if it leaves her in tears. You keep saying that Ben is a 'victim of Mal.' But the one person who has done everything for Ben since they got into a true relationship, is MAL HERSELF!

Point Three: Mal did not make Uma think she was drowning. She WAS drowning! It is proven that she cannot swim in D1. She could have died, and she thought Uma left her to that. Do you really think Mal could let that go, living on the Isle? A place where they keep track of every slight made against them? With the expectations that were on her from Maleficent? Mal could not afford to be "soft." Also, Uma gave as good as she got in the rivalry between them. It was Uma who brought uninvolved parties into the rivalry. You never saw Mal trying to kidnap/mess with/take away Harry from Uma. Uma may have been the original victim of the shrimp, yes, but she quickly lost 'victim' status with her actions afterwards. What Uma did was not a 'date with Mal's ex'. She went after Ben and turned up to cotillion deliberately and with malice just to hurt Mal.

I don't really know what you mean by 'extrapolation' in this context. But frankly, I find your reblog of my post to be incredibly hateful. As well as biased towards both Audrey and Uma.

In defence of Mal getting her 'karma' by the love spell in D2, and the people smirking, 'now she knows how it feels!'

It. Is. Different! 1 Unlike Audrey, Mal has genuine feelings for Ben at that point. (and think about the context of that. This is a girl who has never truly romantically loved someone in her life. And now that she has the person she let have her heart is getting taken away) 2. Mal has just come off months of putting herself through hell/Tartarus trying to be what she thought Ben needed. So that she wouldn't cause him issues with being a VK and on the night it was all supposed to pay off, Ben turns up with another girl. 3 Even if it's unknown to Ben and Uma Mal knows that that's not just any girl taking Ben. It's her cousin, her family that's just a deeper level of low/hurt!

So no, you cannot compare Mal and Audrey's feelings in that moment because the context of the two situations was not the same.

Huma: "What? We're not dating!"

All of Auradon: "You're not?!"

i feel they don't know what love is bc they grow up on the isle, so they can't see they're in love until they get to auradon and people are like "yeah that's the type of thing you do w your boyfriend"

im prob gonna write something abour this

[descenderintofantasy]

Right? Peeta would have RAISED HELL to get Katniss back! Coin would have no idea who she was dealing with.

I think it’s kind of funny how coin (who obviously wanted peeta rescued from the arena instead of katniss) doesn’t see what an absolute nightmare he would be for her to deal with if she left katniss in that arena

Like she thinks katniss was hard to deal with/manipulate/control after she left peeta behind? Peeta would’ve had her whole district eating out to the palm of his hand before she even realized who she was dealing with. She thought katniss was too single minded/stubborn about her focus on saving peeta over the revolution itself? He would have been her absolute nightmare (and I adore him for it)

[descenderintofantasy]

Hi, so I wrote a cute Huma fluff. I hope you like it.

Harry held the small bundle wrapped up in a teal blanket in his arms with such care and tenderness as he stared at his newborn daughter in awe.

A few hours ago, Uma gave birth to her and Harry’s first child, and if Harry was honest, he never would have thought that he would remain ‘alive’ during the birthing process. He almost fainted when Uma went into labor and felt incredibly guilty to see his wife in such excruciating pain(it was a home birth). But, Harry gathered all the courage that he could muster and helped Uma, even gently consoling her that she could do this- to deliver their baby. And she did. After 8 hours of labor, a sweet little pirate princess entered the world.

Harry’s baby blue eyes glistened with tears threatening to stream down his cheeks from the corner of his eyes as he used his free hand to gingerly brush away the stray dark green hairs from his daughter’s forehead while gently walking around the room.

‘Oh my, Sea Star is so precious,’ the new father thought as he pressed a soft kiss to the baby’s forehead.

Once her father kissed her forehead, the baby’s scrunched her face. Her lips ever so slightly curled into what appears to be a smile.

Harry gasped.

Harry averted his eyes from his daughter(although it was hard for him to take his eyes off her) to his wife, who was sleeping peacefully. He smiled fondly at her before he fixed his gaze back to the baby.

While Harry was bonding with the newborn, he didn’t notice (he did, but he didn’t want to look up) that Gil had slowly walked into the room with a tray of a warm bowl of soup.

Gil wanted to ask Harry where he could place the tray of soup, but he didn’t want to disturb the young father.

“Place the soup on the coffee table, Muscles,” Harry told Gil, not taking his eyes off of his child.

Gil widened his eyes in surprise. ‘So, Harry did realize that it was me after all!’ Gil thought as he quietly obeyed Harry’s command and slipped out of the bedroom.

The bedroom fell into complete silence for a short moment until Harry’s ears perked up at a faint, gentle sound.

“Harry…”

Harry paused and turned to see Uma was calling him. Although, she was still lying down in bed.

“My Love,” Harry said, wasting no time as he quickly walked over to his and Uma’s bed and sat beside her.

Uma got up and sat up in bed, feeling a little groggy as she rested her head on her husband’s shoulder. She sighed softly.

“How’s the baby?” Uma asked, yawning.

Harry huffed. “She’s as precious as ever. So quiet,” he noted.

“Hmph, I guess she’ll be like you when she grows older,” Uma said, watching her sleeping daughter lovingly with a small smile tugging her lips.

“Of course, I’m Harry Hook after all!”

Uma laughed softly, and Harry found his wife’s laughter adorable.

These little things from Uma like her laughter for example made Harry madly in love with her even more.

“So, have you thought of a name to give her?” Uma looked up at him.

Harry thought of a name to give his precious daughter and it didn’t take him that long to find one.

He turned to Uma, beaming. Uma could tell that Harry found a suitable name for their daughter.

“Well..?”

“How about Harley?” Harry suggested.

Uma arched a brow. “Harley?”

“Yeah! Harley Harriet Hook,” Harry declared before staring at the small bundle.

Uma gasped for a moment and then smiled. “I love it! Especially the middle name.”

Harry shrugged. “After all, Harriet raised me and CJ as her own two children. So, why not honor her by giving our daughter her name as a middle name?”

‘True,’ Uma thought with a nod.

“Oi, did I just hear my name?” Harriet said as she popped her head in the doorway before entering the room with her two-year-old daughter, Annalise Tremaine in her arms.

Uma and Harry looked up to see Harriet in their room, shocked but happy.

“How long you’ve been eavesdropping?” Uma asked as Harriet sat beside her.

“Just now,” Harriet replied. “But I can’t believe you gave my niece my name!”

“Is it bad?” Uma asked.

Harriet shook her head. “Oh no, I’m very honored! Happy even!”

“See?” Harry smiled at Uma and she playfully rolled her eyes.

“Now, lemme see my niece,” Harriet said as Harry gently placed Harley in her mother’s arms. Harriet and Annalise leaned over and stared at the baby in awe.

“Baby!” Annalise chirped.

Harriet chuckled. “Yes, my little Cookie, that’s your baby cousin. But take your time okay? You don’t want to wake her up.”

Annalise nodded as she covered her mouth with her tiny hands.

But it was too late, Harley slowly fluttered her eyes opened-revealing beautiful baby blue eyes, like her father as she peered at her parents and aunt curiously.

Harry, Uma, and Harriet gasped.

“Damn,” Harriet said, “Harry my boy, your genes are strong.”

Harry blushed.

Uma nodded in agreement. “I was expecting Hazel.”

“Damn,” Annalise said, causing the 3 adults to look at her.

“No, Anna my little pirate, don’t say that word,” the older woman warned gently. “Say that when you’re 15 ok?”

Uma gave her sister-in-law a look. “Annalise won’t understand that.”

“She will in due time.”

“Okay, Mama!”

“That’s my girl,” Harriet grinned.

“I almost forgot, how you’re feeling?” Harry’s older sister asked Uma.

“Well, I’m feeling very weak as you can see, and I’m hungry.”

Hearing this, Harry promptly got up from bed and took up the tray of soup from the coffee table.

“Um, Harriet?” Uma began. “Can you hold Harley?”

Harriet smiled softly. “You shouldn’t have asked, Captain,” she placed her toddler beside her aunt as Uma carefully gave the newborn girl to her to hold. Then, Harry gently placed the tray on Uma’s lap and she thanked him before taking up her spoon and started having her meal.

“Why you asked?” Uma questioned. “About how I’m feeling?”

“Oh, Claudine told me to check up on you,” Harriet responded as she gently rocked her niece and cooed at her in the process.

Claudine Frollo was the one who delivered Harley, along with the help of Bonny, Desiree, and yes, Harriet.

“Well, tell her that I’m coming on, and thank her for helping me with the birth and delivery,” Uma answered.

Harriet nodded. “I will.”

After Uma had finished her soup, Harriet gave the baby back to her mother to hold as Harry took up the tray and went into the kitchen and came back a few moments later to bond with his wife and newborn daughter.

Harriet congratulated the new parents before she and her daughter left, leaving Harry and Uma alone.

Harry wrapped an arm around Uma’s shoulder as he held her close while she was holding little Harley.

“Welcome to the world, Harley,” Uma said to her baby and Harley let out a yawn, showing off her toothless gums. Her parents laughed.

Harry stole a glance at the hook on the lamp stand that was beside him. As much as he adored his hook, it was not more important than his Uma and his Harley. The best things that entered his life.

With that said, Harry fixed his gaze on his wife, who was staring at him.

“Your hook, huh?” She guessed.

“Yeah, but it’s not more important like the both of you are now,” Harry said as he used his other hand to gently cup Uma’s cheek, leaning over and kissing her softly on her lips.

Her breath tasted like chicken, but it didn’t matter to him.

A few moments after the kiss, the young parents exchanged loving looks before they fixed their attention to Harley, who was watching her parents just finished making out.

Harry stifled a chuckle and used him to stroke the baby’s chubby cheek affectionately. Uma smiled.

“My little Octopus,” Harry whispered with a chuckle.

His little octopus indeed.

Awww! Cute! Harry's such a good dad, isn't he? :D

[descenderintofantasy]

Funny thought

Everyone knows Captain Hook is Harry’s dad, that’s a given. The reveal that the Queen of Hearts is also the Hookling’s mom is quite shocking.

Uma: So, she’s your mom.

Harry: Yup.

Uma: Like, they’re your actual mom and dad.

Harry: Yes.

Uma: Wow. They look really great together.

Harry: Eh, I guess. I think we look better. We’re just gifted that way.

Uma: Yeah . . Which means our kids are going to be hot. B)

Harry: Yea- Huh?! W-w-w-wait, what?!

Lol! I love this! XD I mean, it's true the combo of Hook and Bridget made good-looking kids! Harry's just hot and CJ and Harriet are really pretty too! (we see CJ in Wicked World, and I've seen at least one picture of Harriet) Plus Red is pretty 'fire' lol. So Huma's kid(s)? Oh, they're going to be out of this world gorgeous! No doubt there! lol :D

Thanks for the message! :D

[descenderintofantasy]

Reason number 4 on the list of: Why I Love Hook x Bridget:

Becuse they're one of those couples that you could see being so insanely in love. That nothing else matters to them! They are the crazy, insane 'burn the world down for the other' type love.

With their villains arks, they get so bad that they become the only good in each other.

Though coincidently or not the above is exactly the type of love Huma share, so like parents like son it seems!

[descenderintofantasy]

'He fell first, she fell harder' in a nutshell. And one of my favourite examples of the saying :D

No but YOU don't understand. Peeta, who's never been anyone's priority being Katniss’ first choice in all three books is something very important to me.

In The Hunger Games, when Peeta's name was called in the reaping, no one volunteered for him including his older brother who is not only old enough to participate but also a better wrestler than him. Even in the arena, Haymitch chose to keep Katniss alive over him. And the only person who prioritised him was Katniss herself. She chose to keep him alive when he was dying. She chose to die with him by eating the poisonous berries. She chose to go as far as defying the Capitol and President Snow to protect him.

In Catching Fire, once again, we heard his family would mourn if he died but they'll eventually move on. Other victors only keep him alive to form an alliance with Katniss. And Peeta still got captured by the Capitol in the end. But Katniss’ first priority was keeping Peeta alive. She made a pact with Haymitch to protect him. She was ready to kill Finnick or anyone on the spot if they dared to hurt him. She clawed Haymitch for not rescuing him over her. She became suicidal when he was captured.

In Mockingjay, Peeta lost his family. Then President Coin and other rebels didn't want to keep him (and other captured tributes) alive. And the only person who was visibly devastated over his capturing and hijacking was Katniss, again. And in the end, she finally chose him over Gale. And ultimately chose to be with him for the rest of her life. She gave him the family he lost and he became the family she lost.

“No one really needs me,” he says, and there's no self pity in his voice. It's true his family doesn't need him. They will mourn him, as will a handful of friends. But they will get on. Even Haymitch, with the help of a lot of white liquor, will get on. I realise only one person will be damaged beyond repair if Peeta dies. Me.

“I do,” I say. “I need you.”

I know according to you and Ginny, this ship was last minute, but I think they’re cute!

Jordan was hiding in the corner watching Li’l Shang when Aziz came behind her.

“Uh, Jordan? What are you doing?”

Jordan flinched as she whirled to see her ‘cousin’. She looked shocked.

“Aziz!” Jordan hissed softly. “What are you doing here? You’ve frightened me! Y’know I don’t like to be frightened.”

Aziz raised his hands. “Sorry to frighten you, Cuz, but I’m wondering what are you doing here?”

Jordan bit her lip, thinking of an answer as Aziz looked over Jordan’s head to see what/ who she was staring at.

Li’l Shang.

Aziz huffed and fixed his gaze at Jordan who at this point was blushing slightly.

“Why are you watching Shang?” Aziz asked, folding his arms as he narrowed his brown eyes at the genie girl.

“Uh..cause…for my next video?” Jordan cracked a nervous smile.

Aziz gave her a look, not convinced by her answer.

Jordan sighed, realizing that she gave a silly answer.

“Alright, the truth is, I…have a crush on Shang,” Jordan confessed quietly, lowering her head feeling the heat flaring on her cheeks.

Aziz’s jaw dropped as he stared at her wide eyed.

There’s silence between the cousins until Aziz snapped out of his shock.

“You have a crush on Shang..?” The Agrabah prince asked, sounding more like he was making a statement rather a question.

Jordan looked up at her cousin, her sapphire blue eyes twinkled as she nodded slowly.

“How long?”

Jordan was about to answer when her ears perked on a sound; sounds like a pair of footsteps coming their way.

Aziz took a quick peek around the corner and saw that it was Shang approaching their way. So immediately, Aziz grabbed Jordan’s hand and told her that they’re heading over to the cafeteria to discuss more about her feelings for Shang, and Jordan agreed.

At the cafeteria…

“Yes, as I was saying, how long you’ve had a crush on Shang?” Aziz questioned as he rested his elbow on the lunch table.

Jordan took a deep breath before answering. “I’ve been crushing on him since the 9th grade, but I kept it under control since then but every time I see him, I can’t help but blush.”

Aziz just gazed at his cousin with his cheek resting in his palm and Jordan returned the gesture.

“What?”

Aziz shook his head, his wavy locks swinging from side to side. “Nothing. It’s just that it’s rare to see you have a crush on someone, especially Shang. That was definitely not my bingo card.”

The girl planted her hands on her hips and gave him a look. “First of all, I’m not a robot, I’m a girl, so of course I’m gonna have feelings. Two, Shang was my first crush.”

“Okay, so what do you like about Shang?” It was almost like Aziz was challenging her.

‘Oh boy,’ Jordan thought.

“Well, he’s very nice…”

“Nice? Is that the only the thing you like about Shang?”

“Shh! Lemme finish!” Jordan hissed. “Anyways, he’s goofy, sweet and kind. Not to mention adorkable.”

Aziz nodded slowly, taking in what Jordan liked about his friend.

“So..well I’m surprised that you didn’t say he’s very handsome,” Aziz told her. “Something that girls would typically say when they had a crush on a good looking guy.”

“Almost everyone knows that Shang is one of the hottest guys in school,” Jordan stated.

Aziz nodded in agreement. It was true that Shang was good looking.

“So, who have you told anyone about this?” Aziz asked. “Like Lonnie, Ally etc…?”

Jordan shook her head. “I’m way too chicken to tell them, especially Lonnie.”

“Uh huh.”

“It’s true!” Jordan exclaimed, but she kept her voice low. “Knowing Lonnie, she’s gonna flip that I’m having a crush on her brother.”

Aziz giggled softly. “So what are you gonna do?”

“I dunno. I’ve never felt this nervous before.”

“Fair enough,” Aziz said. “But as Shang’s best friend, lemme tell you this, he’s completely oblivious to girls crushing on him.”

Jordan arched a brow at her cousin.

Aziz shrugged slightly. “Like you said, Shang’s adorkable and very awkward.”

“Huh.”

“Yeah, he’d be startled and then be polite because he has no idea how to react.”

“And how do you-” Jordan was cut off but Aziz.

“I’ve seen it for myself. It’s kinda funny.”

“Oh. So what should I do?” Jordan asked, sounding a bit desperate and hopeless.

Aziz took a deep breath before answering. “I’d say you should talk to him.”

Jordan felt her heart skipped a beat as she felt her palms becoming sweaty and Aziz noticed.

“Don’t worry,” the crown prince assured. “Shang’s very easy to talk to.”

Jordan breathed a sigh of relief but still feeling nervous. “But what if he doesn’t feel the same about me?”

“Dunno, Shang is pretty unpredictable,” Aziz replied. “Do you want me to watch you while confess to Shang?”

Jordan nodded quickly. “I felt more at ease.”

There was a small smile tugging on Aziz’s lips. Though he still couldn’t wrap around the fact that his cousin had a huge crush on his best friend. That’s wild.

“Aight, let’s do it.”

Still during the free period…

Jordan saw Shang at his locker taking out his textbooks for the next class starting in the next few minutes or so. So, the girl gathered all of her courage as she took a deep breath and quietly approach Lonnie’s brother.

“Hey, Shang,” Jordan greeted casually as she leaned against a locker beside Shang’s.

Shang flinched slightly as he turned around to see Jordan beside him. “Oh, hey Jordan! You kinda frightened me there.”

There’s a light blush on her cheeks.

“Sorry,” Jordan apologized.

“It’s okay,” Shang smiled. “So what’s up?” He asked as he adjusted the textbooks under his arm.

Jordan looked up at the boy and opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out and Shang frowned.

“Are you okay, Jordan?” Shang asked, concerned.

Jordan shook her head immediately as her palms started to sweat again. Gosh, she was so nervous, but then Jordan remembered; Aziz was there watching her. So she cleared her throat and spoke. “Yeah, I’m good. It’s just that I want to tell you something.”

“Okay….? What is it?”

“I…” Jordan began. “It’s just that I like you, Shang.”

Shang’s dark eyes widened in astonishment at Jordan’s confession.

And Jordan blushed deeply as she turned her head away from Shang. She felt the top of her ears began to flare up.

‘Oh my Auradon..’ Jordan thought. ‘I feel like a fool!’

“I’m so sorry Shang!” Jordan apologized, still not meeting Shang’s gaze. “I felt so stupid!”

Shang snapped out of his daze and replied. “Oh no, don’t say that. It’s just that I’m very shocked by your confession.”

Jordan lifted her head to meet Shang’s eyes. “Oh so… have you felt the same for me?”

Shang mulled over Jordan’s question for a moment while he huffed softly and replied, “You genuinely took me by surprise…but I saw you as a friend, like a little sister even.”

“Oh,” Jordan looked deflated.

“Don’t get it wrong, I do like you, but not in a relationship way. You get it?”

“Yeah.”

“Because I’m way too chicken to ask a girl out on a date, let alone dating her.”

“I understand. So we can be still friends?” Jordan was crushed on the inside but she could see where Shang was coming from.

“Sure!” Shang chirped happily. “It’s just that I’m a chicken when it comes to dating.”

Jordan chuckled as she heard a soft laughter from the back, knowing it was Aziz.

“I’m glad to hear that,” Jordan said.

“Yeah, but don’t worry, the right guy will come your way,” Shang told her reassuringly. “He’ll be much better than me and is totally not a chicken.”

“I’ll keep that in mind. So, I’ll see you later?”

“Sure,” Shang nodded. “See ya, Jordan,” he then patted Jordan’s hair and left.

As soon as Shang was out of earshot, Jordan lets out a huge sigh.

“Ahhh..”

If Jordan was honest, she was bummed that Shang didn’t felt the same like she had for him, but she was relieved that get this confession off of her chest or the conversation could have got worse.

Just then, Jordan’s ears perked up on someone clapping as she turned around saw Aziz coming towards her.

“How are ya feeling?” Aziz asked.

Jordan sighed softly. “I…felt relieved.”

“That’s good to hear,” Aziz smiled. “Told ya that Shang was awkward.”

“Yeah, I can see that.”

“So,” Aziz started as he wrapped an around Jordan’s shoulder. “What are you gonna do now?”

“Nothing,” Jordan replied as she and her cousin began to walk. “Just continue to focus on my web show and school, I guess. Like Shang said, the right guy will come my way.”

“I like that,” Aziz grinned. “C’mon let’s head to class.”

What do you think?

Nice! Very sweet. :)

Honest thoughts on Lonnie (and family)? Id like to hear it.

I think Lonnie is an awesome character! And I wish she was used more! She was the first person outside of Ben to really welcome the VK's and be friendly to them. Though she did lose some points with me for not standing up for them at Family Day, but it's a small blip in my love for her. Mulan is one of my top 3 favourite Disney Princesses, (#1) so of course I would love her daughter.

I'm also a Jonnie shipper so I loved any scene between Lonnie and Jay! :D

Oh hi! Is there any book characters in Descendants you like and why? (Both VKs and AKs)

Hi!

I haven't really read the books, so I can only answer based on the movies. But as to characters I like, in no particular order: Mal, Ben, Jay, Carlos, Lonnie, Jane, Uma, Harry, Hades and Dizzy

Thanks for the message :D

I don't know why, but for some reason, I think it's funny that the reason that Morgan doesn't like Hook × Bridget (totally fine. That's her right) is because during Perfect Revenge, his suggestion was to make Bridget "walk the plank," which Morgan said meant Hook wanted to kill her.

But what's even funnier is how both Ruby and Joshua themselves, especially joushua ship Hook × Bridget.

The thing that makes Hookheart work is that you just need to look at it from an enemies to lovers viewpoint.

Bridget probably said, "I can fix him." While years down the line, once Bridget is entering her villain era, they both say, "I can make him/her worse"

Sorry, this is so all over the place, I'm really tired.

No worries!

Wait the actors ship hookedheart to?! Eeeeeee that makes me happy!!! :D :D But yeah I mean I can see why some people don't ship it as it may feel to like shipping someone with their bully. But at the same time they're so good together if as you say you think of it as an enemies to lovers viewpoint. That I just can't help but love them together!

Plus Bridget being Harry's and his sister's mother makes so much sense if you think about Harry's character in D2 and even D3!

In short hookedheart is my ship! :D

Thanks for the message. :D

No, but imagine the Hooklings being raised with the trauma of being torn away from their mother as toddlers. Imagine Harry being so protective of 'his girls' (Uma, Harriet, Mal and CJ) because he's terrified of losing the most important female in his life again. Imagine Harriet crying for her mom and being terrified to leave Hook's side when she was little because she's scared he'll get taken too…imagine CJ being so young when it happened, that the only thing(s) she can remember about her mom is a faint scent...flashes of red...and the word 'mama'...

Imagine them not knowing their younger sister until she's sixteen...imagine Red not being an only child and not even knowing it...

(For context, we need to imagine that Bridget is Hook's kid's mother and that the Hooklings were technically born in Wonderland before, being shipped/sent to the Isle along with Hook.)

Agreed! Even though legally, Mal would not be able to lead the kingdom until she was Ben's wife. So if Ben somehow died with Mal still being his fiancée, technically the kingdom would fall back to Beast and Belle.

But as you say, what was the plan if their you know seemingly very danger prone king died without an heir?

I added to my other reblog about how most writers have the HC that Belle at least had, fertility issues. Which I can agree with, as you would think at the very least the high ruling family would have had more than one child. But you cannot use that explanation for every royal couple. Especially with the fact that with Auradon/Descendant's modern setting, all the modern treatments would be available to Belle/Aurora/Ella for any medical problems they had as well. Pertaining to having children, I mean.

In short, the fact that nearly all the royal kids have no siblings just. Does. Not. Make. Sense!

Okay, but what is Descendant's seeming obsession with making nearly all the 'descendants' an only child about?

Ben, Audrey, Red, Evie, Jane all of them are the only heir/descendant of their parents, and if you hadn't read the books you wouldn't know that Harry is actually a middle child (he has two sisters) and Mal has a younger (half) brother or that Lonnie has an older brother.

Chloe is literally the only movie cannon sibling we have. Most of these parents we're talking about are royals, you would seriously think that they would have more than just one kid. 'Heir and the spare' and all that. I mean, I kinda get not wanting to hire too many actors, but you think at least one of them (other than Chad now) would have had a sibling in the movies.

I agree! If Melissa had at least given Audrey and Ben book siblings. Then at least we'd know that it was just the production wanting to cut down on actor hire. But as it is, practically all the Princes and Princesses in Descendants are an only child. Which, when you think about the logistics of royals, doesn't make a lot of sense.

I know some writers head canon that Belle at least had fertility problems, which I can get behind. But you cannot use that line of thinking for every royal couple. Especially since Descendants is set in modern times--with cars cellphones etc. So there would be all the modern treatments available as well.

This is like Harry's feelings words for word.

how do you think harry would react to uma being pregnant?

He's definitely ecstatic as fuck. He loves Uma so much and now he's hearing that there's gonna be a mini version of her, but it's also a mini version of him? Like shut the fuck up rn, his heart can't handle this.

But on another hand I think he's scared shitless. It's not like he has training for this and the isle isn't the place to figure out how to be a good parent. So growing up there he definitely didn't learn much. I think he's good tho, the need he feels to protect Uma just went up by a million. Also he's so damn smitten for her, if people thought it was bad before they had no clue.

Harry seems like he would simultaneously be one of the best, and strangest parents. But he's trying his hardest. He didn't know you weren't supposed to give your baby sharp things, they did it all the time on the isle!
