Panthers like it when they do this, right? I read about it in a book once.

[bunny-lou]

Ben: “WHY IS THE SCHOOL ON FIRE?!”

Mal: “I sneezed as a dragon.”

Carlos: “We had an accident in the chemistry lab.”

Jay: “I dropped my latest mix tape.”

Ben: “Evie, please tell me what happened.”

(Flashback to Jay and Mal arguing with Carlos that it was impossible to light a fire extinguisher on fire.)

Evie: “I don’t remember.”

15 Day BL Challenge! Part 2

Day 22: Day 2 revisited - Fave Rookie Actor Pairing?

Part 1 Part 2

This time I’m challenging myself to pick an actual rookie pair and it was actually very easy

Ben and Jay are doing so well in Caged Again that I have to give it to them. Their chemistry is very good and they seem very comfortable with each other. They are doing extremely well in their acting. I hope that can continue and they can end Caged Again just as strongly as they started and continue to find success in acting.

Bonus:

Because neither of them are actually rookie actors but 2024 was their first year acting as a pair together

Marc and Poon were not brought together under the greatest of circumstances and yet you’d never know from how well (and quickly) their on screen chemistry exploded in We Are. They quickly became my favourite part of the series and they are also doing delightfully in Perfect 10 Liners. I’m hoping we get them together at least once more for a main role in the future.

Ben: Mal, why is Jay intruding on our cuddle time?

Mal: Boys, please, I have two hands.

How is Ben different from his canon self aside from not being the High King of a union/federation of kingdoms and a bit older? How is his relationship with his parents different especially with that awful father of his?

I’d say both his parents are stressing him the fuck out. I decided that the beast curse was given to Ben as a baby because King Adam was cocky about how he beat his just in the nick of time. And there is no way to break it this time which Ben has a lot of trama about.

Think of it like Edas curse from the owl house… it’s something he’ll have to learn to work with for his whole life. It’s not a big secret though, everyone knows. His mom was in a situation like Mal in D2 where she was trying to assimilate into a world she didn’t fit in. Unlike that movie she actually completed the transition and has lost a lot of OG Bella’s kindness and quick wit. She’s obsessed with Ben finding the perfect partner and that’s why Ben has always felt that he couldn’t be alone. King James is distant with his son due to the curse even though it was HIS fault.

Auradon is no longer a bunch of kingdoms together either. It’s one kingdom and it has the barrier around it. Other fairy tale and fable kingdoms found in the Disney universe have their own kingdoms all around the globe. Including Atlantis and other planets. Think of Auradon like the Hamptons, a beautiful place where the wealthy go to visit and the extreme elite get to live. (That would mean Ben created extremely selective affirmative action 😅) I do like it better this way because it’s easier to understand. Every location in Disney cannon can exist if they get their own space. Yes that means the VKs can leave the isle but no other place would let them live a good life. Or at least a liveable life. So they all congregate there.

Here’s an excerpt from that Benjay fic im working on it needs lots of reworking though���

Being a Prince was a tough job. There was so much pressure on him to be a great future king. One major aspect of that was his future spouse; his mother was always bothering him relentlessly on the topic as he grew up. “ Benjamin, Darling you must choose a good spouse, it is imperative to the people's perception of you.” his mother would often say. The constant narrative of “dont be alone” was always pressed on him so hard in fact that he couldn't bare the thought of being alone. It got so bad that that he went with the first present options of someone to court. It was stressful when he and Audrey were courting, the constant trailing during dates stressed him out as well as the media coverage analyzing their every move. Aubrey herself seemed more concerned with the respect that comes with being a queen. Nobody really liked her very much, but she was pretty and she was sweet during those first years. Unfortunately that all faded as the years went by and he felt there was no way out. He couldn't be alone.

Then came Mal, she was beautiful and sweet. But she was hopelessly in love with her best friend and her best friend felt the same. It almost became this mad rush to him to wed her before she could leave and yet he felt so bad about it. He didnt want to be alone. But he pushed it and was alone any how. The big ass walls in his dorm felt like a cage. What was he to do but sit in his room and cry. And he was alone which he didnt want to be. Then Jay showed up. Jay. handsome, good at Tourney, an excellent swords-man and his closets friend. Looking into his concerned brown eyes he remembered leaping into his arms. There wasnt much conversation to be has as he was a bawling mess. All he could remember from that night was staring into those eyes for as long as he could and making a move that even he didnt expect. He kissed his best friend. And it felt good, really good. The best part of this situation was that the amazing feelings completely washed over the awful ones that led him to that very moment.Until Jay moved away, he was expressing concerns about the sudden atmosphere; yet he was into it. He had kissed him back and moved his face to kiss him again once they got over that little hurdle. The time spent felt… really nice. It was more intense than anything that had happened before for him. But maybe that was because he had thrown himself so totally into the sensations at play so that no semblance of sadness could worm their way back into his heart.

It was such a drug that they both implored to keep it up. He defended this continuous indulgence with the belief that it was allowing him to show his face on campus.Spending time suffocating in his fancy prince class: “ Kinging 101: The study of Class Disparity” waiting for the pleasant feeling of rough calloused hands pushing him into the corridor just near the lecture room. Every time he felt those hands he breathed a sigh of relief.

Jays perspective is on my page somewhere… anyone that’s all I got

and also maybe benjay hurt comfort?! 👀

!! I'm so excited for this fic, it's the third part in my Ace Jay series. The first two are already published. This one's kinda heavier so tw for trauma from past sexual assault, self-victim blaming, self harm, and panic attacks. The premise of this fic is that Jay runs into someone he had sex with on the Isle as a means of survival, and having a panic attack at the memory of it. Also important context, Jay is a djinn. (also Harry is not the one who assaulted Jay, he's just there and trying to help.

Jay tunes him out, trying to focus on his breathing, the locker against his back, the hum of the air conditioner, anything to take his attention away from the way his skin crawls and his desire to shed it off like a snake.  His whole body leans towards the shower, aching for the burn of the water to sear away the memories. He can’t, he promised Ben he wouldn’t, but it almost hurts more to sit here in the filth, and Harry is too close—  In a last-ditch effort, he reaches under his shirt and pulls out the locket Doug had made for him, a beautiful piece of craftsmanship Doug gifted him when they found out djinns have to have a vessel to be bound to. He clasps his hand around it, and suddenly he’s inside it, the cool darkness and the solidness of the metal walls soothing some of the ache.

Nooooooooooooooo

But the trailer and the boyssss and the penguinnnn look sooooooooo adorable T~T

I just might cry. seriously.

Like. Who gave them the permission to be this adorable¿?...

Jaonine, my beloved, is just the bestest boiiii, Nokia looks super cute and the main guys, BenJay, are also the sweetest already

Like, their bond and relationship promise to be so very tender, and warm, and innocent, and beautiful, and sincere and just wholesome. I feel like I'm just gonna melt into a puddle after November 15th comes *~*

And also, the trailer itself overall looks fluffy, cozy and just exudes some sort of comfort (yeah yeah, we were introduced to a conflict at one point, for, like, 5 secs, and then it's all fluff again. It may be a move to deceive us, bring a false sense of security and calmness, but I choose to be happy (read: delulu) and hope that this series will 99% fluffy fuzzy lovey-dovey watch. Until I'm proven otherwise)

So, all that rant is to say that I'm sooooo very much excited and can't wait for this series

Day 2 Revisited - Fave Rookie Actor Pairing

I confessed when I first looked at this question, I was puzzled. I didn't initially think I'd have any other rookies to mention here HOWEVER that was before I started watching Caged Again. So, yes, you know what's coming:

BenJay

I know Caged Again isn't finished yet, but I'm enjoying it SO MUCH. They have SO MUCH CHEMISTRY, and they're so good together! Besides, they are great at expressions, I found. I really like Junior's overly expressiveness and Sun's microexpressions. They really sell the characters and are hyper-good in contrast to each other. I'm really rooting for them and their careers and what they can do next. I've adopted them as my babies.

Blue’s shameless Let Ben Take Care Of People agenda:

Ben is pretty sure that Jay is categorically not okay right now, and if he’s not going to bring it up to anyone, then it’s Ben’s job, as the one responsible for bringing him to Auradon, and also as his friend, to bring it up for him. 

Okay. 

He can do this. 

“You okay?” 

Jay jerks his head up. He’s got his phone in his left hand, the screen bright. There’s already a set of chewed looking earbuds connected and dangling loose towards the floor. “What?”

Right. This is weird. Ben’s the one being weird right now. They do talk, because they’re friends, but it’s always about classes and stuff. Casual stuff. Not stuff like this. “Uh, I just wanted to see if you’re okay?” 

Jay blinks. His mouth is a little bit open, and he looks more confused than anything. “I’m fine. Are you good?” 

“No. Yeah. I don’t know.” Ben stutters. Gods, but he hates when the words won’t come out smoothly. “I—sorry.” 

Jay’s smile pulls at the corner of his mouth. He’s handsome all the time, but there’s something special about that smile, even though Ben knows he was looking tired and sad just a moment ago. “You don’t know? I know you’ve been pulled around a lot lately, but dude, I didn’t think it was this bad.” 

“It’s not. Or. Maybe it is. I don’t know. I came over to check on you.”

“I’m fine, dude,” Jay says, standing up fully and spreading his arms, offering Ben a grin as he does a little half-turn. “I mean, look at me.” 

Again; the little voice in Ben’s head screams wrong. 

And look. Ben knows that he’s not usually the smartest guy in a room. He’s determined, and patient, and persistent, but he rarely achieves clever, and he knows that. He knows how to work around it too, with earnest kindness and a genuine willingness to hear out every single person, no matter how small, that even the most determined liar eventually opens up for him. 

Usually. 

“Walk me home?” Ben offers, holding out a proper courtly arm. “Not that you have to, or anything. It’s just—“ 

Jay links their arms together, as easy as anything, and bumps Ben’s shoulder ever so gently with his own. “Dude, you don’t need to explain. I missed you too, ‘kay?” 

Oh. 

Oh. 

Ben isn’t that close to Jay by Auradon standards, but Jay’s closest friend is Mal, and Mal’s closest friend is Evie, and Evie’s been fighting Ben for Mal’s time ever since they started dating, and maybe this is all it takes to be friends, when you’re one of the isle kids. It’s impossible for Ben not to notice how they flock together, four heads pressed close together at meals and breaks and in between classes. Maybe this is all it takes for them to be friends, just shared time, and shared people that they care about, and shared glimpses of the sort of heart-stopping smiles that they hide from other people but sometimes let him see when he’s hanging out in the girl’s room. 

Ben’s never been allowed to choose his friends before. He’s always been expected to hang out with the other royals, no matter how insufferable he finds some of them. Chad’s the sort of friend who’s fine in a group, but sort of annoying to hang with one-on-one, and they don’t have much in common outside of sports. Besides, Ben’s been too busy to even participate in games lately, and the only reason he’s still on the swords and shields team is because he’s considered too high-status to officially kick off. 

“I…missed you,” Ben says slowly, trying out the feel of the words. “Yeah. That’s not actually what I was trying to say, but…” 

“But I’m charming and irresponsible,” Jay says agreeably, nodding along. “And taking care of us is how you show affection, so you wanted to check in, yeah.” 

“I don’t think this conversation is going the way I expected,” Ben says, not really even complaining. “I’m trying to take care of you.” 

“I’m fine, man.” 

“You’re not, though!” 

“Look—“ Jay starts, and then stops. He makes a small motion, just shifting his shoulders to angle them towards the wall instead of the open corridor, but it’s enough, apparently, for him to drop some of the act. His usual smile slides off his face like ice cubes on a hot plate, and it leaves him looking older. Ben almost wants to rub his thumb over the wrinkle that pops up between Jay’s brows, but they’re not that sort of friends yet. “Look. I can’t do this here, okay? I’m fine, you don’t have to worry.” 

“You’re in pain.” Ben says, realizing as the words come out that it’s true. “You’re hurt?” 

“No.” 

“You’re not wearing a backpack,” Ben says quietly. “You’re moving slower than usual, I think. I didn’t notice it so much at practice because you were bouncing between groups to help troubleshoot. You’re good at hiding it.” 

“Look—“ 

“Why won’t you tell someone?” 

Jay grabs Ben’s shoulders with both arms, and sure enough, there’s a shadow of a wince in the way he’s gritting his teeth. “Dude. I said. Not here.”

CAGED AGAIN (2024, THAILAND)

Episode 2

Why? I've been waiting for Jeng to appear in a substantial role in BL since his "guest role" in FISH UPON THE SKY. And gets the role of Nam (and ultimate assh*le)

But I digress. Because I love this series already.

Sun (BENJAMIN GREENWELL aka BEN) is a seemingly shy and brooding type, perhaps because of the manipulative Nam.

But in reality (or the story) Sun is a natural predator as he is a black panther in human form. And he's making it his mission to protect Junior (SORATHON CHALOEMLAPSOMBUT aka JAY) a penguin, also in human form.

These two are destined to be in each other's lives or so it would seem.
