The most effective thing about Ever After High is that every student has their own personal struggle that adds another element to just how life-ruining the destiny system is.

Apple is so terrified of what will happen to her if she doesn’t follow her destiny, that she is willing to compromise everyone else’s happiness to make sure it happens. This disregard for other people is only encouraged by the influential adults in her life.

Ashlynn has to be a servant to an abusive family and live knowing that the ultimate end to her supposedly happy ending is dying to set the stage for her daughters traumatic backstory, starting the whole cycle over again with no chance for any of them to escape.

Blondie feels so pressured to fit in to a deeply classist/monarchist society and ashamed of her parentage that she constantly presents a fake version of herself to everyone she knows, even her best friends.

Briar has to spend her whole life waiting for the moment her destiny comes and she falls asleep for a century. She knows that when she’s woken up, she will be forced to marry a boy dozens of years younger than her who she’s never met and live knowing that everyone she ever loved is dead and gone, the very things that she watched cause her mother’s emotional breakdown.

Cedar’s father was so afraid of watching her repeat his mistakes that he overcorrected, making it impossible for her to ever learn lessons for herself. She is also forced to share incredibly personal details with anyone who asks her questions, and can’t be trusted by her friends with any of their secrets, and it’s all because of her father’s past trauma.

Cerise has to hide who she truly is and never gets to see her family together and happy despite the fact that her parents have potentially the most healthy and mutually beneficial marriage in the whole franchise.

Daring was groomed from birth for a destiny that ends up not actually being his at all, leaving him aimless, feeling as though he has no purpose and has wasted his entire life.

Darling is forbidden by patriarchy and destiny to become a knight, the only thing she really wants, and at which she would be better than both of her brothers. She has to hide who she is and what she loves from everyone she knows

Dexter lived his whole life never knowing what his destiny would be but also knowing that whatever it was he’d have to commit to it forever the moment he discovered it at Legacy Day.

Duchess has spent her whole life knowing that the story she’s commited to living out ends in tragedy for her, and then had to watch the very people she’s been jealous of for years because of their seemingly happy endings give up those endings, while Duchess, loyal and rule following Duchess, is still stuck with her tragedy.

Faybelle tries so hard to commit to what she sees at her destiny that she’s never had a real friend in her life. Even still, no one recognizes her for all that effort and all she’s given up to be a suitable villain. Everyone is more afraid of Raven, who doesn’t even want to be evil.

Hunter has to constantly go against his moral compass to fulfill his destined role as a Huntsman and to try and make his father proud of him.

Kitty has been taught over and over again to value her Mother’s approval over all else, even at the expense of her friends. Her destiny is to create mischief, but how much more mischief can a dissolving world take before it’s too much?

Lizzie finds it almost impossible to express love or care for anyone else due to her mothers excessive conditioning that’s nearly akin to brainwashing. The saddest thing might be that her mother is actually, in her own way, trying her best to prepare Lizzie for a world that will only ever see her one way—as a villain. Now she lives in Ever After, princess to a kingdom that might not even exist for much longer, having given up everything for a destiny that may soon be impossible.

Maddie is a refugee forced from her home into a world she barely understands at a tender age. But she cannot express any angst or negative feelings about this circumstance, because to do so would go against her character. She lives in a world obsessed with destiny and stories while not even knowing if she’ll ever be able to return home and live out her story.

Raven is judged by almost everyone around her for her mothers crimes, many of which were required of her by destiny in the first place. She is nearly forced to commit to becoming a tyrannical megalomaniac (and almost falls into it herself, several times) who would be sentenced to lifelong punishment and torture for committing acts that weren’t even her idea in the first place, and the one punishing her would have been the very girl who begged so often for her to stop being so difficult and just follow her destiny.

i think a really underrated eah webisode is 'the beautiful truth' because not only do we get a banger trio we should've seen more of but I really really love the scene of apple questioning her own pageant wins.

and i love this scene moreso for how apple sees cedar's point of view and realizes that cedar's right about the meaning of true beauty and decides to support her view.

bonus reason: the way ashlynn's smile after seeing apple and cedar talking about how cedar was right to speak up at the pageant.

she's the mom friend for a reason yk; that's a proud mother right there.

Ashlynn Ella - Ball Gown Concept Art 💞

This is THAT dress, the one her fairy godmother/Ferrah Goodfairy gives her on the night of the ball in her story.

[xbomboi]

this is the last joke i’ll make about some of the characters having bad hygiene.

[thestorybookoflegendsarchive]

one of the major changes i will be making is making people better at lying, they’re all “this is a huge secret” and then:

darling keeps her armor in her locker

huntlynn hold hands in public before they announce their relationship

literally everything cerise does ever (girl is not subtle)

and those are just off the top of my head (i might edit this later)

ever after high having a halloween costume party would be so chaotic and just end in bloodshed and tears tbh. some shenanigans i think that would happen:

poppy shows up with her hair in hunter's hairstyle (as the thing that scares her the most) and everyone laughs and it hurts hunter's feelings that no one defended him. poppy and ashlynn spend the the party trying to cheer up hunter as he sulks in the boy's bathroom for the entire night.

sparrow arrives crossdressing as raven with her guitar and raven tries to (rightly) strangle him. he gets away after the first attempt and raven hunts for him the rest of the night. duchess puts away her rivalry with raven for the night and joins her because sparrow spilled coffee on her dress last week.

the charming siblings decide to dress up as each other. daring as dexter, dexter as darling and darling as daring. apple's jaw falls when she sees darling in princely attire and goes into a gay panic. she spends the night running away when she sees darling and darling thinks apple needs help with something so she follows apple whenever she runs away. this is hilarious to everyone except for the two of them.

daring realizes he doesn't get as much attention from other students when he's dressed as dexter and spends the night trying to get his fans to notice him again. lizzie notices his (frankly pathetic) atempts at fishing for attention and calls him out on it. he realizes that he actually enjoys not having all the pressure on him to be so charming all the time when in costume. they spend the night just chatting together and eventually ditch the party to go for a moonlight ride on legend.

dexter forgets to add his glasses to his darling costume and had to walk around wearing heels for the first time (he had to commit to the entire costume okay, he wasn't a coward). it's because of this combination that he trips, stumbles and gets trapped inside a coat closet during the party. he then tries to use morse code to get help (since he couldn't yell loud enough over the music playing) but maddie's the only who hears his tapping and she thinks that he wants to make a beatbox song together.
