What are your honest thoughts on all Descendants boys? From both books and movies?
Oehh that’s a good question! I’ll base most of this off of the movies because I remember them more clearly. Sorry this is so late, I needed some time to sort out my thoughts. Let’s see:
Ben: cutie, golden retriever energy, needs to grow a bit more of a spine but as a recovering doormat I vibe with him.
He’s got a good heart, and he’s definitely going places, but I have no idea who decided a 16-year-old should be king. Hilariously, he’s a better king than his dad because he cares about all of his people, not just the “heroes”. But still, he’s 16, let him have his dumbass teenage years. He’s still in his phase of wanting to please everyone and that isn’t gonna lead to the best decision making. You’re king, Ben, you can overrule your girlfriend’s selfish idiotic plan of closing the barrier. Just tell her “the barrier was opened for you to come through too. If those kids aren’t worth the risk, does that mean you aren’t either? Should we throw you back?!” And she’s change her tune real fast. You gotta give some tough love sometimes.
Jay: cool, I wanna know his gym routine, pretty funny but rash, needs Carlos to temper his brand of crazy (love their bromance).
I love the narrative parallels to the movie Aladdin. Jafar thought himself so far above a street rat and now he’s raised his son to be one so he can continue being a con-man. In the movies, Jay is actually a very accurate representation of your upbringing shaping you into who you are. All Jay knows is stealing, he’s never been taught to pay if he doesn’t have to, so to him stealing’s perfectly fine. It’s normal. It’s a lot more subtle than the whole “who doesn’t like being evil” bit, but the core idea is the same: when all you’ve ever known is one perspective, that’s gonna feel like the objective truth because you’ve never had a chance to try a different one.
Carlos De Vil: Best (movie) Boy, my baby, I love him. What a little nerd (affectionate).
He’s a big part of why I willfully ignore the absolute stupidity that is the third movie’s ending. I’m sorry Mal, wtf is wrong with you??? You set your supposed friend’s abuser free for nothing but some empty platitudes and dare suggest you’ve become an empathetic person?!?! In the books, we get a lot more insight into just how horrible of a mother Cruella is, but even in the movies we see he’s had it bad because of how jumpy and nervous he is. Disney is still Disney so we don’t get much of the healing process, but we see how he calms down and adjusts to a normal life over the course of the movies when he’s out of the bad situation, which is pretty good by Disney standards. Cameron Boyce did an amazing job playing him (R.I.P Cameron) and seeing an abuse victim get comfortable within their own skin and getting the happy ending they deserve is always fun.
Harry Hook: Insane (affectionate), most fashionable drama queen ever, absolutely crazy, more than a few screws loose but in the best way possible, he’s hilarious.
So on the surface, Harry’s pretty simple. A dude who’s lost his marbles and flirts with everyone. He probably has some kind of moral compass, since he didn’t rip Mal’s throat out with his hook when she revealed her little stunt in D3, but it fell overboard at some point and couldn’t be found so nobody knows what it is except Harry himself. Also, he has his sane moments, like during that same confrontation in D3 I mentioned before where he says “And you, King Benny... you're probably gonna throw us all back inside.” It’s the first time I’ve heard him sound… not like Harry. It’s sombre and defeated, a little disappointed maybe? Either way it’s really good acting and it implies he can act completely “normal” but he just chooses not to, which makes me like him even more. He’s just a dude living his best life despite the circumstances he was born into.
Gil: adorable, hilarious, kinda clueless but in a good way.
I love characters that have no idea what’s going on half the time but are absolute sweethearts trying their best. He’s like- the opposite of his dad in every way and I’m living for it!
Gaston Jr and Gaston the third: I don’t have much to say on them, let alone separately, so they get a section together.
Honestly? I don’t remember having an opinion of them. They made Evie happy by wresting, which is cool so they get points for that. Seem like they’re trying to out-gentleman each other to win Evie’s heart and since they’re not being creepy assholes about it they are objectively better than their dad. Very much brawl over brains, the two of them, with their constant wrestling reminding me of Carlos and Jay except they’re both the muscle. Kinda cute sibling relationship, even if it’s in a VK-typical villain-flavored way.
Anthony Tremaine: squeeeee, my type is pretty boys who sigh in annoyance at everything, I guess? We only get scraps but I happily cradle them to my chest.
Uhmmm so Anthony’s personality is mostly up for imagination? The only canon information we have is that he’s most likely Anastasia’s only kid (someone on Tumblr pointed out that, in the scene with the wicked step-daughters, he’s referred to only as their cousin, not their brother) and he’s very bored with his cousins’ antics. Given A Twist In Time the potential drama is endless. Every time Anthony’s mentioned we’re reminded he’s pretty and has good style, and I love that for him. Dude lives on an isle of junk and still looks like a supermodel. Lots of room for my own ideas while still remaining within the realm of “could be canon” with just enough base in there that I’m not just creating an OC, and as a writer and artist that’s all I need tbh.
Hadie: cute, deserves better, I need more of him and Mal bonding
Mal’s half-brother, son of Hades, very cool. I like that he’s trying to turn good and having a hard time, because that’s very realistic for someone who grew up not knowing anything other than evil. Descendants 2 tried to tackle it with Mal, but failed miserably. We know Hades sucks as a parent in descendants (neglect is abuse) so that’s not gonna help him.
Dough: Awww he’s so cute with Evie 🥺
No really that’s it. He’s a nerd that gets the girl, has some very funny moments, but honestly most of his character is centered around Evie? And they’re cute together it’s not a bad thing but there isn’t much to analyze. He’s understandably pissed about someone like Chad getting all the girls while using them, but that’s also only ever seen in relation to Evie.
Chad Charming: what a bitch (derogatory), total coward, I hate him but he’s funny.
So I have no issue with characters who conduct themselves terribly (I love Audrey, (fanon) Anthony, Uma, and many others from many fandoms) if, and that’s a massive IF, they have a good reason for it. And I’ll count “because I can and I want to” as a good reason, because by that point you have someone who’s mean and owns it. I can appreciate the self-awareness and usually those characters are very extra so it’s entertaining. If not that, there needs to be a reason they are the way they are. Audrey has the pressure from her grandmother (and the borderline verbal abuse), Uma has the very real grievance of living in squalor on a run-down island full of the worst of humanity because she was born, what does Chad have? He’s spoiled. A spoiled brat. And he goes from that to an overtly whimpering coward with none of the pretense of superiority in any field. His one saving grace is that he’s a massive joke.
Diego De Vil, Clay Clayton, Gonzo, Jace and Harry Badun, Herkie, Aziz, Jonas, Lefou Deux, Li Shang Jr, everyone else I missed: no opinion, because they’re not relevant enough for the writers to give them a personality.
I have nothing I’m sorry. I barely remember reading their names and I don’t remember anything from the scenes they’re (mentioned) in to get an idea of what to talk about here.
That was… a lot lmao

I think Gaston would be an awful dad, but the Gaston twins (Gil’s older brothers) would be perfect troublemaking older brothers for him ❤️
I just imagine them teaching baby Gil how to start a fire or how to vandalize things
I wasn't sure with the ages, but I did my best
Gaston Jr. ¦ Gil ¦ Gaston III
Tumblr media
Maybe Gaston has many children, but he only kept the boys

Isle kid Moodboards revamped part 2;
Tumblr media
Marya Grigorievna Rasputin, the 20 year old daughter of Grigori Efimovic Rasputin and Baba Yaga (bartok the magnificent).
One of the medics of Harriet Hook's crew.
Lover of skeletons, magic, taxidermy, bugs, roses, and whiskey cake.
Not too great st speaking English.
Bestfriend of Big Murphy and Claudine Frollo.
Currently single.
Tumblr media
Reza Vizer, the 15 year old son of the former Royal Astronomer of Agrabah and a harem girl as well as the adoptive son of Mozenrath and Sadira. Older brother of Omar and Alya.
He is the forensics expert of the Badun Detective Agency and is rivals with Carlos De Vil as well as a student at Dragon Hall.
He's good with swords, daggers, guns, tea, and breaking and entering, and He always acts like he is the smartest in the room (which he is most of the time) and doesn't like it when that title is challenged because he has earned that title.
He also doesn't like it when people treat him like he's less than Carlos, which is why he didn't join the Anti-heroes club (because it was being run by Yen Sid who is not found of him at all).
He is dating Yzla Sorcerer of Enchancia.
Tumblr media
Claudine Esther-May Frollo, the 19 year old daughter of Claude Frollo.
She is homeschooled and apart of Harriet's crew, the Bad Apples, and the Anti-heroes club. She is also the bell ringer at Dragon Hall.
She is left handed and a redhead who loves science, art, music, sweets, and things being fair. Which of course while paired with her beauty did not bode well for her due to how her father is.
She works at her father's crepes shop and is dreaming of the day she can escape with her friends.
She has a thing for Lefou Deux.
Tumblr media
Richard 'Rick' Perseus Ratcliffe, the 21 year old son of Governor John Ratcliffe.
He is apart of Harriet's crew, The LeGume Hunting Club, and The Bad Apples.
He and his dad do not get along at all due to many factors—like his dad being racist and naming him after his dog. If anyone dare mention the origin of his middle name, they will get a black eye from him.
He had his own pug named Prometheus.
Once when he and Clay Clayton were young and rough housing, he accidentally knocked the other man out of a second story window at Hook's inlet. They're still friends though, surprisingly.
He also has a habit of saving people from water sources like John Smith, much to his father's annoyance.
He has two younger siblings (Rachel and Rory) and is very protective of them as well as the kids of his father's former crewmates who got stuck on the isle with him.
He is dating Mad Maddy.
Tumblr media
Claymore 'Clay' Comrade Clayton, The 20 year old son of William Clayton.
He is a member of the Bad Apples, Harriet's crew, and The LeGume Hunting Club.
Though unlike his dad he doesn't enjoy poaching or being crueler than necessary when hunting because it makes him uncomfortable, so he avoids doing it.
He loves graffiti and sailing and the jungle as well as tree climbing, rope swinging—on vines—, and partying. He also likes carving his intails into things and rough housing.
Especially with Rick and Anthony.
He and Rick once overdid it and he ended up getting thrown through a window, which no one has let them live down since.
He and his dad have a volatile relationship, which is arguably better than what most kids on the isle have, though those in Auardon would argue that that's still bad. He gets along alot better with his aunt and brothers though and has no clue who his mother maybe.
He has no problem with speaking his mind, which gets him in trouble often. He has tons of weapons as well as a stuffed grollia and would get along swimmingly with Tarzan and Jane, and their family. Especially their son, Taylor, who is just as rambunctious as he is.
He doesn't have the best grades but he's a good person and arguably Ginny's conscious, and that's all that matters, right?
Also he's terrified of getting hung like his dad and the idea of drowning again.
He's protective of his younger brothers, Cassius and Wilson, and is dating Ginny Gothel.
Tumblr media
Jadeana 'Jade' of Agrabah, the 19 year old daughter of Nasira and the niece of Jafar.
She is in Harriet's crew and is the messenger of the isle, so no one really messes with her.
She's a bit of a loner but when she cares about people, she cares about them deeply—i.e. Jay. She'd help him steal so he could stock Jafar's shop quicker and so he would get hit or have to sleep outside. She rarely ever goes near Jafar's shop—since her mom who isn't all bad strictly forbade it—but when she does, it's to see Jay.
She was heartbroken when Jay left without saying goodbye but slowly over time she's gotten angry and bitter and resentful because she thinks he forgot about her.
She likes crocodile wrestling since it's an easy way to get out her aggression and she has two pets—a snake named Hassan and a parrot named Tygo.
She has magic but goes to Dragon Hall because she thinks the witch school is pointless on the isle.
Oh and she's dating Jonas Olympian (a member of Uma's crew).
Tumblr media
Hermione 'Hermie' Leona Bing, the 14 year old daughter of The Ringmaster and Miss Atlantis.
She is a member of the Badun Detective Agency and as well as the Anti-heroes club.
She was an orphan by 7 and left to run what was left of her father’s circus on the isle.
She lives by herself with her animals in her father’s old trailer by the woods where the circus tents and trailers are located.
She is known as an animal whisperer and a Jack of all trades on the isle because she can do nearly every circus act there is.
She obsessed with circus related things—ESPECIALLY clowns.
She is in denial about the true nature of her parents' deaths and is emotionally and mentally unstable due them.
She has quite a sweet tooth—especially when it's traditionally considered circus food.
She collects glass figures as well as odd/deformed furniture, toys, and photos (along with just vintage photos in general) and loves colorful things.
She also loves reading, filing, painting, dagger throwing, acrobatics, gymnastics, dancing, playing games, and taking care of animals.
Her and Eddie Balthazar are dating.
Tumblr media
Edmund 'Eddie' Seraiah Balthazar, the 15 year old son of Sarah Dear /Aunt Sarah and Edgar Balthazar.
He is apart of the Anti-heroes club and the Badun Detective agency.
He has alot of old school hobbies like croquet and crochet, golf, birdwatching, and collecting things. Things like stamps, coins, and bugs. He likes reading and listening to music and writing and he loves picnics, sewing, and knitting.
He had a litter of kittens that he adores as well as a motorcycle.
He also likes red wine, coffee, tea, champagne, slushie, hard candy, chicken pot pie, cigar, and toast with beans. Not that his parents know that he likes alcohol.
He usually shows little more than indifference to those outside his inner circle and has been taking care of his elderly parents (and their pets) since he was 9.
He is dating Hermie Bing.
Tumblr media
Gaston Junior and Gaston the 3rd LeGume, the 21 year old sons of Gaston LeGume and Laurette. Aka Junior and Bronze.
They are hard heads lacking in education because of their father and can hold one hell of a grudge (as well as an ox) but have hearts of gold. When it comes to the people they care about that is.
They are both members of Harriet's crew and have many shared (and differing) hobbies.
They are very protective of their little brother (and sister) and their little cousins, even if they love getting under their skin at times.
Junior is dating Daphne Tremaine and Bronze is dating Sammy Smee.
Also Junior has a bad leg from trying to ram through the barrier with his dad.
Tumblr media
Gemma Enchtra LeGume, the 3 year old (by d3) daughter of Gaston and the Enchantress. She is the younger half sister of the Gaston twins and Gil as well as the younger cousin of LeFou Deux, Claire Bimbette, and La Foux Doux (by default).
She is every bit as good, innocent, and bubbly as Gil is. She loves Magic, fruit, candy, roses, lifting rocks, animals, the forest, mirrors, and adores her older siblings and cousins with all her heart. She also loves her parents too despite not knowing them all too well.
Oh and she likes weight-lifting, though her elder family members don't allow her to do it.
And she loves mirrors as well and carries around the doll that her brothers and LeFou Deux made her.
She is my oc based on the toddler from d1.

Scarlet, daughter of Scar Headcannons:
TW: bad parenting, abuse (sort of), violence, bullying, harassment, murder (mentioned twice), physical assault
Tumblr media
She grew up on the Isle of the lost with her father
Her mother was never apart of her life and honestly Scarlet doesn't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing from what her father told her
She's a major daddy's girl
But that doesn't mean they have the best relationship
Scar taught Scarlet from a young age to be a ruthless killer that he could one day use to take down Simba and his pride
Because of this, Scar tends to push Scarlet to her limits
Most of the time she can take it, and even grow under this pressure, but other times she isn't so fortunate
There have been times where Scarlet will completely breakdown, not necessarily in tears but, in angry outbursts
This temper isn't just exclusive to her breakdowns tho
In fact, she is infamous for her rage on the Isle
Most of the other kids don't go near her (with the exception of Mal, Evie, Jay and Carlos)
She has been known to destroy everything in her sight, leaving nothing but taters and destruction in her wake
She even goes so far to hurt others
Many other VKs have been injured, beaten and (some say) even killed as a result of her short fuse
Scar seems to be proud of her despite this tho
Actually these actions are what fuel his pride
And of course that's all Scarlet could ever ask for
Although she is quite a bit different from the other VKs, one of the few things Scarlet has in common with the others is, the need for her fathers approval
Most, if not, all of the kids on the Isle just want the love from their parents
Scarlet is no exception
She craves for the love of her father
She would do anything
Train tirelessly day and night? YES
Beat his enemies? YES
Kill for him? YES
Honour his name and kill anyone who doesn't do the same? YES
As you can tell she is very loyal and would do anything for the ones she loves
This includes her small friend group
She protects all four of them fiercely and without hesitation
Particularly Evie
She and Scarlet go far back into their childhood
Evie was being picked on by a big, dumbass who probably couldn't even count to 3 (AKA Gaston Jr)
He was older than them
Evie and Scarlet were in the same year as his younger brother, Gil
But this didn't detour or discourage Scarlet
A small blue-haired girl sat on the concrete of a large school playground. The grounds looked just as depressing and dull as the rest of the Isle. The dark gloom in the sky became suddenly darker above the girl of about 6 or 7. She looked above her to see what caused such a drastic change, and low an behold standing above her was the big, dumb older brother of her classmate, Gil. She had heard of him, if she remembered correctly, his name was Gaston Jr, after his father. "what are you doing, Princess?" He jested, mockingly, "none of your business, ugly" She sneered back. This seemed to upset the boy, he reached down and yanked the book the blue-haired beauty had tightly grasped in her hand. She tried to resist but him being years older than herself and being the son of the one and only strongman, Gaston, gave Jr the upper hand. It only took one good yank for the book to come from her hands and for her to go flying to her back onto the cold, hard floor below. This knocked the wind from her lungs, she lay there coughing uncontrollable while the larger boy laughed at her expense, Jr took this chance to flip through the book she tried so desperately to keep ahold of. Inside was drawings among drawings of what appeared to be outfit ideas that seemed to come from the child's mind. Jr, who had been brought up by Gaston, gave a disgusted look "ew girl stuff", he remarked, throwing the book at the poor girls head. "Hey" she retorted, Jr smirked at this, "what are you going to do about it, huh? cry?" He let out a loud laugh, he reached back down again, just this time not for the book. The older boy took a handful of the blueheads hair lifting her up in the process, she let out a sharp hiss. Jr craned his arm back and the defenceless girl could do nothing but scrunch up her face and wait for the impact. But it never came, she did, however, hear a loud smacking sound and she was quickly dropped to the ground. The girl snapped open her eyes to see what had happened, and bestowed upon her was the everlasting image of a tall, dark-haired girl pummelling the elder boy to the ground with her balled up fists, all the while screaming profanities. Her fist weren't the only things doing damage tho, as the blue-head saw the bigger girl bited down on the boy like she was some type of wild animal. The blue-head was stunned at this, the Isle of the Lost was not a place where you could count on protection and help from the schoolyard bully. Especially, in such a vicious, animalistic way. Once the dark-haired lass decided the boy was punished enough, she got up off of him and made eye contact with the royal blue girl, who was staring with shock on her face. Not only had she been protected from THEE Gaston Jr but the girl who protected her seemed to be quite stunning, her raven hair, dark skin, tall stature, her developing muscles in her arms and shoulders and most of all her piercing emerald green eyes that the girl could of swore looked right through her soul, all were to much for the blue-haired girl not to stare. She finally snapped out of her trance when the other girl went to leave, "wait!" She called out, the raven-haired girl tilted her head to the side. "Thanks, I'm Evie!" She extended her arm for the other to shake. The girl did not return the favour, instead just opting to say a quick "Scarlet" before snapping her head forward again and making her leave.

How do you think Beast and Belle would react yo the fact that Gaston Jr accidentally took out Black Murphy's eye when they were younger and that he's haunted by it?
How about when they find out he is heavily under pressure and taking care of his cousins and siblings in a timy apartment?
First they would assume the worst - that Gaston Jr. didn't feel guilty about it, that he was violent, even that he did it on purpose - because they would see his father in him.
Once they realize how guilt-ridden he is about it, they would soften, however.
As for Big Murph, obviously he didn't get the best medical attention to his eye. So Ben would try to orchestrate that now, sending him to get his eye examined to see what, if anything, can be done. Like if the eye isn't completely gone maybe he can regain some vision through surgeries; if the eye is completely gone, well, maybe he'll want a realistic glass eye. (He won't. He's fine with his eye patch. He's a pirate after all.)
Then Ben would try to set up some childcare so the care of all the little kids related to him is not solely on the shoulders of one teenager.
Ben: Hey we can just invite them all to live in the palace, right?

Gaston Jr: So, I was trying to pull my phone out of my pocket, got stuck on a string and in an attempt to pull myself free, I fell out of the window.
Anthony: It's like you only have half a brain and it's made out of gum. How is it that you don't regularly forget to breathe?
Hadie: Someone once had to perform CPR on me after I almost drowned chasing a cute duck into the river.
Anthony:
Anthony, breathing hard: That could happen to anyone.

Not So Bad a Dad Afterall!
Tumblr media
Summary: what if Gaston was an okay dad?
Trigger warnings: slight sexism/misogyny, accidents, implied depression, child endangerment, near death experiences, etc. Part of my 'Even Villains Love Their Kids' series.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Gaston had always wanted a big family.
One with a beautiful wife and 6 or 7 strapping boys (like himself), with maybe a couple of dogs. 
He had wanted sons that he could go fishing and hunting with. Sons that he could teach to be mighty heroes like himself that would be beloved by the people of their village.
But, because of his mistakes—ones he made as a bullhead young man who was used to getting his way and wouldn't take no for an answer—Gaston had ruined whatever chance he had at that.
He lost his titles.
He lost his village's respect. 
And he got himself along with his best friend and best friend's husband sent to the isle.
As well as three young women who were smitten with him.
After that, he had thought that he'd never get to have the big family he'd always dreamed of.
And, for once, Gaston was partly right.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
He ended up marrying one of the three women who were smitten with him (who turned out to be sisters) named Laurette.
She was blonde with green eyes and loved the color orange. 
Sure, she wasn't Belle… but at that point, Gaston was convinced that she was just as good, if not better, than his old crush. 
She was kind and liked to sew, and thought he was funny even when he'd get the punchline to a joke wrong. 
She got along well with LeFou and Stanley (who her sister, Paulette, ended up being a surrogate for) and was excited at the idea of becoming a mom. 
And she knew so much about him. 
At this point, Gaston wasn't sure why he had ever thought that Belle was the better option for him. 
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Gaston ended up opening up a shop called 'Gaston's Duels Without Rules ' that sold weaponry and allowed people to fight in the back to settle their disagreements.
And when Laurette fell pregnant with their first child, he got a job as a P.E teacher at the school Dr. Facilier was running, Dragon Hall, because God knew that they needed all the money they could get while on the isle. 
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
They ended up having twins that they named Gaston Jr. and Gaspard (who'd go on to be nicknamed Gaston the 3rd and Bronze). 
Twins that ended up being inseparable and looked up to him. 
Twins who wanted to be just like him by the time they were 4 and who thought he was a hero. 
Which Gaston was overjoyed with until it got out of hand and hurt the person he loved more than anything. 
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
"Come on, Laurie. Just tell me what's wrong?" Gaston found himself pleading for the first time in his life.
His wife hadn't been herself lately now that the boys were starting to develop their own personalities and he had even noticed that she hadn't seemed very excited when she told him that she was pregnant again.
She wasn't her bubbly, carefree self anymore and she looked so, heartbreakingly tired. 
She didn't sew for fun anymore and hardly left their bed when he was home. 
And Gaston didn't like it.
He couldn't stand it.
When he was younger he had never thought that he would be this worried about a woman but here he was.Begging and pleading to know what was wrong so he could figure out how to make her smile again. 
God, how he'd like to see her smile again. 
Laurette didn't look at him.
She didn't even sit up.
She just continued to lay there, in their bed. Hugging a pillow with her back to him. 
And just when Gaston started to think that he wouldn't be getting an answer, she spoke up— voice shaky. As if she was going to cry.  "I'm a horrible mother."
"What? No you're not! You're a wonderful mother!"
She shot up, glaring at him with red, tearful eyes "then how come they don't like me? Why won't they spend time with me?"
Gaston stared at her, dumb struck. Wondering where on earth she had gotten that idea. 
"What are you talking about, the kids love you–"
"They love you more. They… they don't like spending time with me. I just want them to enjoy spending time with me." She sniffled, wiping at her eyes. "I keep trying but they just want to be like you and hate anything I try to show them. They don't even listen to me. "
"I…"
He was stunned.
He had never thought of how his actions could have affected his wife. 
He had never thought  that his actions could have caused his children to not respect or listen to their mother.
Gaston knew that his mother would have been ashamed if she could see him now. And he wouldn't have blamed her for it either, because he was ashamed of himself too. 
"I'll talk to them."
A look of surprise crossed her features.
"W-what?"
"I'll talk with them. This is my fault and I need to fix it. And I will. You just worry about yourself and the baby. And who knows, maybe you can teach him how to.. sew."
Gaston knew young him would have balked at the mere idea of a boy sewing but young him was a fool and his actions had hurt his wife. And it was his job to fix it.
Besides, times were changing and he had to change with them or be left behind.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
From then on Gastin tried to set a better example for his sons.
He started showing his wife more respect and let her have more say in their household, and did his best to work on his marriage. 
He began working on controlling his temper. 
He opened a bar and worked there alongside his other two jobs in order to provide for his wife and their sons. 
He began to spend more time with all of them and scolded his sons for not listening to his wife. 
Because it was the right thing to do. 
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Gaston made a habit of taking his three sons to Frollo's Creperie (which was right next to his shop, Gaston's Duels Without Rules) on Tuesdays.
Both so he could bond with them more and so his wife could get some privacy. 
And they always got the exact same thing. 
10 Spinach and Egg crepes—triple the eggs—and two raspberry ones to go (for Laurette). 
Afterwards, he'd take them to Gaston's Duels Without Rules to watch the fights out back ( taking them out of the room when it got too gory and violent).
He taught them how to defend themselves and how to arm wrestle and supported their dreams.
And while he disapproved of his son's friends, Gaston soon learned to hold his tongue unless he genuinely thought that they were a danger to his boys.
He did his best to be a good dad and husband …. But he still made some mistakes.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
By the time Gillian (or Gil, as he preferred) was 4 and  the twins were 8, Gaston was going stir crazy. 
He missed the  fresh air.
He missed the sun.
He missed traveling and the constant hunting trips, and he knew that his best friend (Lrfou) and his husband (Stanley) missed their hometown.
And he also knew that his wife and her sisters missed the green of the trees and the blue of the sky, and the flowers.
And he knew that they all missed fresh food.
Fresh food that none of their children had ever gotten the chance to taste.
He hated the isle.
He hated Beast.
And he hated Belle for thinking that it was fair for his children to suffer because of his mistakes.
A four year old boy shouldn't have to guess what  fresh food tastes like with his friends. 
And after hearing Gil do just that with James' son and the sea witch's daughter, Gaston just snapped. 
Which caused him to do one of the stupidest things he could have ever done.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Junior was wailing in his room as the medic of Hook's crew reset his leg. 
And Laurette was losing her shit.
"HOW COULD YOU HAVE BEEN SO STUPID?!"
Gaston honestly didn't know what he had been thinking. Taking a battering ram to the barrier—in the ocean—with his 8 year old. 
He didn't know why he had thought it was a good idea.
He didn't know.
All he knew was that he had just wanted them to be free.
"I… don't… know."
"OUR SON NEARLY DROWNED, GASTON! HIS LEG IS BROKEN AND HE COULD STILL DIE! WE DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT PEOPLE TO FIX THIS!"
"I know…"
"Then tell me what the hell you  were thinking?!" 
"I wasn't. I was impulsive and stupid. But… I'll fix this. I swear–"
Laurette looked tired again. 
Tired and disappointed. 
"How?"
"I don't know but I'll figure it out," He said, desperate for her to believe him. "I swear I will!" 
He had already lost so many people's respect over the years.
He couldn't lose hers too.
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Junior never walked the same again and Laurette never forgave him.
Gaston didn't forgive himself for it either. Especially not after Laurette disappeared after Gil's 5th birthday party after one of their fights. 
Because he knew that he'd never be able to make it up to her and that he'd never be able to fix what had been done to his son's leg.
But he tried his best to make his son comfortable. 
To find ways to soothe the constant pain Junior was in. 
But it was hard to do so when the only supplies you could get your hands on came from the trash. 
🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
Gaston remarried to the Enchantress when Gil was 11.
6 years after his wife disappeared. 
And he was still trying his best to be a better man and a better father. 
Which wasn't easy when one had a very demanding wife, a club, and three jobs to attend to just to be able to afford to feed them all. 
It became even harder when his daughter, Gemma, was born since Agatha (the enchantress, his wife) didn't want to do anything for her.
But he still did his best.
He did his children's laundry until they were old enough to do it themselves. 
He made them go to school. 
He loved his children and supported them. 
And while he wasn't perfect, it was enough for his children. 
Who still looked up to him despite his faults.
For Junior, who still walked with a limp and had chronic pain but didn't let that slow him down as he tried to chase the ladies. 
For Bronze, who split his time between school, his father's businesses, and the crew he and Junior were in. 
For Gil, who couldn't shut about his great dad to his crew and whose friends were constantly over. Who wanted to explore the world and see what a penguin was. For Gil, who was so much like his mother that it hurt to think about. 
And for Gemma, who was almost and loved magic, roses, and weightlifting. 
And because of that, Gaston was allowed to still be in their lives when the barrier was brought down. 
He was allowed to attend Gil's wedding to Chad Charming, Junior's wedding to Debbie Tremaine, and Bronze's wedding to Sammy Smee. 
He was allowed to attend Gemma's graduation and there to celebrate with her when she got the job she wanted. 
And he got to know all of his grandchildren.
Something that he knew many other isle parents weren't able to do. 
And because of that, Gaston never regretted his decision to change.
Because why would he when his children turned out so well?
Why would he regret the best decision he had ever made?

Five Days at Memorial Review

Sometimes these stories turn out very good and sometimes they don’t.
