Ayo, what if Nancy was the one to find Giselle?

Like, she’d still be dating Robert, feeling that twinge of disappointment because it’s as if they stayed with him because it’s what is done, with the addition of comphet and amatonormativity(Robert’s talk with his daughter about Nancy comes off as both tbh)

Maybe she’s on her way home from work or to a date, but then she finds Giselle on that gotdamn billboard! And she’s like “oh no, dear FUCK, random disoriented lady!” And there’s an urgency because Giselle doesn’t have a phone, she doesn’t know where she is, and Nancy’s wondering if something, like, happened to her!

Somehow, she gets her to her apartment. Robert calls and she answers quickly, talking about what happened and how she can’t just leave her alone, at least not right now.

Giselle asks about the magic speaking card, Nancy, visibly concerned, explains what it is and who she was talking to.

“Your prince?”

“Boyfriend.”

“Boy…friend?”

“Uhm…” and she scrambles for an old-timey word. “We are courting. Milady.” And she just sighs. “Five years.”

Still, Giselle’s eyes are sparkling with excitement and Nancy can’t feel down for long. In fact, she asks her about her ‘prince’ and while Giselle infodumps, describing the literal song pouring from her heart, Nancy finds herself swept in, a stirring in her heart already.

And a lot of it is the same, except Giselle is playing off of a recovering theater kid who learns to nourish her inner whimsy. And gayness.

My Disenchanted thoughts

I know this blog is called alescendants but Disenchanted is still Disney and it makes sense to write my opinions on it here. These are my personal opinions, everyone is entitled to have their own thoughts on this movie.

I wrote a lot so it’s all hiding under the readmore:

PROS

Finally, we know why Giselle was living with animals in the woods!

Morgan calling Giselle ‘Mom’ was so pure ngl

Seeing Giselle, Robert, Edward, and Nancy all being friends years later was so sweet, and the latter two being Sofia’s godparents? My heartt 😭😭

And finally Nancy sings! I keep repeating “For through this wand from Andalasia flows the magic of our magic world to here”, and also Love Power obviously lol

"Congratulations on the increasing size of your progeny." and "Hogwashery!" in this film vs "I don't know what ‘melodramatic’ means" in the first film. Bless you, Edward, you're academic now and I am so proud of you

“Morgan, if you want to be mad, you be mad at me. But you do not talk to your mother like that!” >>>

Robert is the blueprint for all men I swear

Morgan hating the move is all the better when you remember Robert said she’s shy and doesn’t have many friends. I feel you, Morgan, I suck at making friends too 😀🤝

I don’t get why people don’t like the music, I loved all of it! It saved the movie imo.

Maya Rudolph can SINGGGGGGGG

“Nobody ever would bother to tell a tale with Maleficent and with Cruella.” That was good honestly.

Gabriella Baldacchino is so good in this! She can really sing, good for her.

CONS

Everyone saying ‘the whole cast is back’ when Nathaniel wasn't in the movie (as well as Narissa for obvious reasons) felt very weird and wrong to me

Why was Edward barely in the movie?? His himbo energy is a big part of makes the first film so great imo, and while he did steal the three scenes he was in (yes, three), he deserved to be in the movie more. Also this is a personal issue but I hate how he’s never called ‘King Edward’, as I was hoping his Disney Wiki page would be able to be retitled to that lmao. His name is King Edward of Andalasia, put some respect on his name.

And I was hoping he’d have a scene with Morgan detailing his own experiences with wicked stepmothers. But he and Nancy were missing for the whole middle act 😭, AND James Marsden deserved to sing more!

Robert too. Why did they make him an idiot knight? He’s not endearing like Edward, he just annoyed me. And they obviously kept him out of most of the film because True Love’s Kiss would undo Giselle’s wish. It pissed me off how nobody thought of doing that lmao

“We bring love from Andalasia and offer belated birthday cheer.” That was in the trailer, they filmed a part for it. It and the rest of the lyrics are in the official Spotify song, so why was it cut out of the film? So unnecessary.

Same with the Monroeville portion of the opening song, it should’ve been kept in.

The 2D animation sucks, and why did Nancy look so different? She and Idina both don’t have blue eyes, where did that even come from?

I wanted Giselle to go back to Andalasia and for Robert to go there period. We need to fully see how he looks in 2D and how Giselle changed.

And I dislike the implication that Giselle has never returned to Andalasia and shown Robert and Morgan where she grew up. As IF she’d never say goodbye to the animals who raised her. And since Morgan always asked for stories about Andalasia, why not TAKE her there? Literally what is stopping her? It’s bad writing.

And speaking of Morgan, yes teens are angsty but it still hurt to see her fight with Giselle (their relationship in the first movie is precious).

And I’m confused about the whole wicked stepmother thing? “It’s not true what they say, I have met so many kind and wonderful stepmothers.” What happened to that?

But ignoring that, Morgan calling Giselle her stepmother in the argument hurt bad. Because she knows how Giselle (apparently) feels about stepmothers and she was obviously trying to hurt her.

Giselle could’ve done her animal call and it either doesn’t work or ravens and other animals portrayed as villains (snakes, rats like in Lady and the Tramp) show up. That’d fuck her up and it’d be cool to watch! And Morgan sang the animal call in pt 2 of Fairytale Life, she should’ve done it for real.

Malvina was disappointing. I was expecting her to be an Andalasian who Narissa banished, like Giselle. Maybe they’re related (like Ursula and Morgana) and/or she was threatened by her magical competition so she sent her away. And with a name with Malvina, it made sense to me that she’d be Andalasian. Clearly that was the intention and I don’t get why the team behind the movie would trick the audience like that bc it’s the opposite of a good plot twist. Queen Narissa had way less screen time and I prefer her way better.

Plus it’d keep Narissa relevant to the plot which was not the case and I was deeply disappointed.

I predicted that with Monroeville’s slogan literally being “Your Fairy Tale starts here!”, it’d be designed by Malvina to be a trap for Andalasians to find out how they left Andalasia and if she can take their portal back there. Like there was so much potential that went wasted.

And where the hell is Malvina’s husband? (He’s on the billboard with Malvina and Tyson at the entrance of Monroeville, so he definitely existed at one point.) If he’s dead, at least just mention it once?

Why was Morgan and Tyson’s song cut? It’d give him + their relationship much needed development and it’s a cute song.

Rosaleen and Ruby were annoying. I love YNB and Jayma but their characters aggravated me.

Sofia crying after Morgan was pushed down the well could’ve been a chance for Giselle to break away from her evil self to care for her daughter. I thought that’d happen. We all did, right?

There’s probably more but I’ll stop here lol

I don't even want to think about how the sequel (ie Jane and Danny) fits in with the Descendants timeline but absolutely lmaoo

Concept: The VKs Watch the Disney Films

Imagine the VKs watching the Disney films that their parents are in: (They sang Be Our Guest in Descendants 1, so the Disney films 100% exist in their universe as films you can watch.)

Uma, Jay and Zevon are not happy about how Ursula, Jafar and Yzma have been depicted as humourous.

Mal, Evie, Carlos and Ginny Gothel are just upset at how accurate the portrayals of their mothers are, because they’re just as wicked in the films as they are in real life.

(The same goes for Gil watching Gaston in Beauty and the Beast.)

Harry Hook actually loves Peter Pan - seeing his father being depicted as a coward (or a codfish, if you will) and a joke is way more refreshing of an experience compared to the Captain Hook who he grew up under. Harry roots for Peter and the Lost Boys for the whole film and he cheers when they force Hook to say he’s a codfish.

Dizzy Tremaine, Anthony Tremaine and the rest of their siblings and cousins are horrified when they watch Cinderella. There’s no doubt that Lady Tremaine, Drizella and Anastasia told them a WAY different version of how the story went. Seeing their grandmother, mother and aunt relentlessly bully and abuse Cinderella for no justifiable reason is sickening, and it really shifts their views.

#if you saw me reblog this to my main by accident no you didnt

might try or not to draw Virus (Syndrome daughter from that absolutely wonderful little fic you wrote) and im wondering , did you or the creator of she (that one wattpad user) have an idea of how she looks? thanks in advance

Hi! I'm glad you like the fic, it's nice to see that people enjoy my writing lol

The faceclaim who's used for Virus is Madelaine Petsch. And here's some fun facts about her:

Her secret identity is Beatrix Pine (you know, because her dad is Buddy Pine)

Her mother is Mirage!

Good luck for the drawing! Tag me if you do it ☺️

Revenge AU - In The Beginning

(notes + information on the revenge au can be found under the cut!)

The phone started to ring. A long form buried under thick black blankets stirred, and out of the blankets reached a lazy, pale hand with wicked-sharp nails to pick it up. "Who dares disturb my sleep?"

"M-my apologies, Your Excellency..." stammered a woman’s voice. She sounded deathly terrified.

"Well, who are you? And what the devil do you want?" A pair of vibrant, brilliant green eyes peeked out from the blankets to glance up to where a clock hang ticking on the wall. "It's two in the morning, you absolute fool."

"My name i-is..." there was a brief pause. An inhale could be heard, and then an exhale. "Virus, ma'am. My father is Syndrome, the supervillain."

"Ah, him... Well, Virus, whatever you're about to say had better be worth waking me up for," responded the owner of the pale hand and green eyes - this was none other than the dark fairy Maleficent, the widely respected (and feared) Leader of the Villains and self-proclaimed Mistress of All Evil.

"It’s definitely worth it, Your Excellency," Virus promised in an eager tone of voice. "I've found a way to break the barrier."

Maleficent was so shocked, she had to stop for a moment to make sure she wasn’t still dreaming. “I beg your pardon?”

Hello! First thing I want to address is that Virus, daughter of Syndrome (from The Incredibles), is an OC. She isn't my OC, she belongs to a friend who does not have Tumblr - however you can follow her on Wattpad at @AnnabethMalVeyPotter.

This whole little drabble is an introduction to a personal AU of mine that I like to call the 'Revenge AU'. The basic original idea was: The hole that was pierced through the barrier, created by the machine built by Carlos in the book The Isle of the Lost (with the intention to get more TV channels, I think), was a hole big enough for Diablo, Maleficent's raven, to fly through. While in Auradon, Diablo was able to bring down the barrier completely by using the control button in the royal limousine. This allowed the villains to escape, pillage the kingdoms and take over, exacting their revenge against the heroes who wronged them.

Art for this AU is done by the lovely @thebubbleteas! Stay alert on both of our blogs to see updates on the Revenge AU :)
