His face during the meeting, the moment he first says "No." As he realizes what has just been said and decided, not just his dream being shattered right in front of him but also the chance they're taking away from all those kids just because Auradon is scared. The camera glosses right over it in the moment, but if you get a good look: he's reeling from it, literally backing away. The horror, frustration, and heartbreak is sinking in, and not even his own fiancée is on his side.

And the movie somehow wants me to believe he agreed with Mal and everyone else on this decision.

#if this council wasn't made of 3 people who he trusted and values deeply there would have been MUCH more of a fight i know it #(i don't count FG because I don't think Ben actually cares about her lmao)#but mal beast and belle? he cares about their thoughts very much #(and so this decision stings a LOT MORE)#anyways #ben descendants #ben deserves better #man i wish the movie actually did something with this instead of him placidly acting like mal's decision was right when confronted by harry #but of course you know he wasn't allowed to have a spine after d2 cause last time he upset mal she made him out to be the bad guy to everyo #even his own parents so...
