#Mal daughter of Maleficent

[cockylittlemal]

mal is literally what keeps the core four together. stating the obvious but it cracks me up.

carlos and jay are beating the shit out of each other in this scene and evie's retouching and doesnt care, and mal's just looking at fairy godmother like "you ask me why i have an attitude when this is the shit i had to deal with for 10 years?"

Maleficent’s hand placements, Hades stare, this movie is definetly gonna be their love story. And the magic game is on POINT! Making Mal proud

Decided to start picking back up writing Chapter 2 of Cities Of The Lost but in the meantime if y’all wanna read chapter 1 here it is!

I’ll be eventually including cameos from other characters like Evie, Red, Chloe, and etc but I’ll start getting better at updating

Summary: Years after leaving Auradon and the Isle, Uma is now a private detective solving mysteries alongside her assistant, Audrey Rose. However, after magic is dying out and the disappearance of a former loved one, Uma finds herself surprised by her newest client. This case will her toughest yet.

What coming to Auradon was like for them

Evie: I can adapt to this place.

Mal: I can’t adapt to this place.

Uma: This place will adapt to me.

Can someone answer me why the Once Upon a Time cast looks more like the descendants casts parents than the actual descendants cast parents?

Can someone answer me that?

Like seriously, put Regina mills and Evie together side by side, and they look seriously related. Same with Once upon a time Cruella and Carlos.

Disney should've used the Once upon a time cast as the descendants' vk's parents instead of the people they casted

the reminder that these two are half-siblings keeps me alive /hj

Random Thought I Had About Super Sinister 13th Birthdays;

Okay, so I don't know how canon this can be considered since Super Sinister Thirteen birthday parties are only mentioned once or twice in the books. 

But I recently found out the canon birthdays of three characters—Uma, Mal, and Evie—and am now struck with a couple of angsty thoughts. 

So, I personally get the impression that Super Sinister Thirteens on the isle are like Sweet Sixteens/a milestone birthday/right of passage—and they’re probably big on the isle, and something the isle kids themselves came up with. I mean, we know given how most of the villains are on top of the limited resources on the isle that a good portion of the isle kids probably never had birthdays/birthday parties. 

What if a Super Sinister Thirteen is something the older isle kids made up to throw themselves a birthday party at least once and it became a sort of right of passage among the isle kids? The day were you were finally considered a villain or something?

It’s the most important birthday on the isle and the only one a lot of the kids have—with some of them not even getting to have that—and all of the kids, and several of the adults know it. 

It’s canon in the books that more people showed up to Mal’s Super Sinister Thirteen than Uma’s. 

It’s canon that Uma and Mal both share a birthday—that they were born on December 31st. 

That alone is angst material. 

Arch enemies, former friends—sharing a birthday—and having more people show up to your enemies’ milestone birthday than yours whether out of fear or just because they genuinely think that your enemy is more evil/important/special than you and it’s better to be seen on their side than yours. 

But then we find out that Evie’s birthday is October 11th. Two months before Uma and Mal’s. 

Evie was still exiled when she was thirteen. 

Was alone with only her mother, her pet parrot Othello, and depending on when her doll was eaten by vultures/dogs (can’t remember which animal it was eaten by), her favorite doll—on what was supposed to be a milestone birthday. 

All because she didn’t invite Mal to her sixth birthday. 

Only that’s not exactly right, is it?

Because Evie was six. She wasn’t in charge of invitations. Her mother was. 

Her mother who probably wouldn’t have listened to her if she said she wanted Mal there or not. 

And in the descendants book ‘The Magic of Friendship’ we see the invitation Evie meant for Mal to have, despite Mal having never got it (correct me if I’m wrong. It’s shown on the wiki but it doesn’t really give context regarding the invitation). 

It doesn’t matter how the invitation didn’t get to Mal—whether it was because a six year old Evie misplaced it, a spiteful Evil Queen wanting to make a grab for power, a test from Maleficent, or something else. It doesn’t matter why the invitation didn’t get to Mal. What matters is that we the audience now know it existed 

That Evie knows it existed and that she made one. 

Which means Evie wasn’t slighting Mal and that she had no reason to expect her sixth birthday party to be ruined by Mal’s mom for ‘not inviting her’. Because as far as little six year old Evie knew she had invited her.

Whether she knows or doesn’t know that Mal didn’t get the invitation after the party is ruined is irrelevant. 

It doesn’t change the outcome. 

Evie is exiled for the next ten years with no companions other than a doll, a parrot, her abusive mom, and maybe goblin servants—including on her birthdays.

Her birthday is October 11th and she was exiled on her thirteenth birthday—on what would have been her milestone Super Sinister Thirteen. 

She’s exiled through no fault of her alone with no friends and no really caring family, and likely doesn’t know the full circumstances behind why because she did invite Mal, didn’t she? (Maybe she starts to question if she ever really did or if her mind just made that up). 

She’s alone on a day where other isle kids with the means to celebrate would be having fun with the rest of the isle kids and their friends. Alone and not allowed to leave her home that functions more as a prison on a day she knows is supposed to be special for isle kids—and then two months later, she gets to watch Mal’s Super Sinister Thirteen celebration (and maybe even Uma’s, depending on how many people showed up and how flashy she was able to make hers) knowing that she was forgotten and abandoned on hers intentionally for something she didn’t even really do. 

The pure angst material is glorious. 

(Don’t think Uma sitting with Gil and Harry almost completely alone in Ursula’s fish and chips on her  Super Sinister Thirteen, fighting back tears because she invited just as many people as Mal had and how she probably had to decorate herself and make everything because Morgana, Ursula, and whoever her father is couldn’t be half assed to help and how there is only so much a thirteen year old with or without the help of an adult, like her Aunt Uliana, can do. ).

(Don’t think of Evie sitting in her windowsill on her birthday, tearful face buried in a pillow as she hugs her doll all while Othello flies around the room squawking ‘unibrow’ and other things the Evil Queen has criticized Evie on or how longingly she must have watched Mal’s celebration from that same windowsill two months later while knowing that she hadn’t really done what she was accused of). 

(And certainly don’t imagine Mal on her thirteenth birthday, having all eyes on her—including that of her mother who punished her for helping a Goblin in the market—and being a nervous wreck or how she was likely thinking about how her father and brother weren’t there. Don’t think about how sharing a birthday with Uma once must have been a wonderful thing and was now a bitter one on that day for both of them—).

Again, I’m likely just overthinking it  but I just wanted to share. 

(Also don’t think about Celia, who’s birthday is October 31st, and how Evie might have also seen Celia’s eighth birthday celebration less than three weeks after her milestone birthday was ignored—given that Dr. Facilier would likely have the means to give Celia a decent one since he runs an arcade, school, and might even do some work on the side to get money. One that could likely be seen from the arcade).

Today i'll be talking about how mal's behavior in descendants 2 is more than the "i don't belong here" and "i just don't fit in" type that i thought it was when i first watched this movie. Mal's behavior here actually stems from the abuse her (and the other VKs) suffered from for years at the hands of their parents. Sometimes going back to old habits and patterns, even they hurt you, is the easist thing for people to do because it's the only thing they've known for so long that, even if it hurts, it feels comfortable. This mentality is what i think drives mal to go back to the isle in the 2nd movie. That's all.

[cockylittlemal]

Mal: What am I supposed to do all day while you're gone?

Evie: Well, what do you usually do when I'm gone?

Mal, fighting back tears: Wait for you to come back.

[caswensworld]

They both look so absolutely beautiful! Didn’t expect Chloe to have full blue hair but she still looks so good!

You know the picture it’s giving?

MAL AS A DAUGHTER OF MALEFICENT AND UDO AND THE NEW QUEEN OF THE MOORS FOR ANONYMOUS

[dxscxndxnts]

D3 Rewatch

Y’all, there are two moments that may have gone unnoticed. I can’t remember cuz it was FIVE YEARS AGO but in the spirit of Rise of Red coming, here’s another random analysis posts.

Two Harry Hook moments in D3 stuck out to me

His whole character in D2 centered around being an unhinged second hand to Uma. In D3 he was more played out to be a MASSIVE flirt, very obnoxious, and still very unhinged.

Except:

(To Ben) You’re probably just gonna throw us all back inside.

(To Mal, on Uma’s behalf) You talk pretty, but she’s already made up her mind.

In these moments, for just a brief second, HARRY HOOK SEEMS SANE.

The situation gets real. His safety (and Uma’s) are not only threatened but guaranteed to be tanked with the return to hell on earth, and his unhinged facade (come on, its a cover) drops.

You can also say it drops when the groups reconvene after finding Ben and he asks Uma if she’s okay all quiet like, but lbr we’re all rewatched that scene to its death, Harry being soft to Uma is nothing new.

Anybody else glance this?

From what I know about Greek mythology, Hades was one of the few gods who never actually cheated on his wife.

Sure, he had quite a few dalliances before he married Persephone. But once they were married, he was always faithful to her, unlike some other relatives of his I could name.

Which is why him being Mal's father is surprising, because it means he, after thousands of years, was unfaithful to his wife and had a child with another woman.

And if it's unlikely enough he'd cheat once, it's extremely more unlikely he'd cheat twice. So while Mal may be the daughter of Hades and Maleficent (AU where Mal is actually the daughter of Hades and Persephone but Maleficent kidnapped her), Hadie is almost certainly the son of Hades and Persephone, and not another woman on the Isle.
