For your silly Descendants prompts, how about Diego drops Beezlebub (Carlos' cat) on his head at family day after the barrier is taken down while he is talking to a baffled Radcliffe family and Dude?
...I might have taken slight creative liberations with this prompt. I’ve decided that this would do a decent continuation for this prompt, so. But! Diego is here! And Belzebub too!
Also. I don’t have any favourites. How dare you even suggest that. (The author laughs nervously and hides these entire story behind their back.)
Anyway, de Vil cousins being drama queens! Enjoy!
„Hey! Hold that cat of yours!“
„Shut up–“
„Give me back my fucking necklace, it’s a family heirloom–“
„You stole it from our Aunt just last week!“
„An heirloom, duh. Now give it back!“
„The fucking seven times damned cat is in my bloody face!“
As Carlos hears the voices of his cousins and the other new arrivals from the Isle, he winces: He cannot help but question his life choices slightly.
Only slightly though. It does seem like they brought his cat back.
He looks around: The band (shocked into silence), the decorations (highly flammable), the young king (still smiling).
The limo, now still, the driver just about to open the doors.
Carlos smiles too, and if anyone was looking at him, they might have described the smile as manic.
Alas, no one is paying attention to him. But that’s fine. His cousins are just making a spectacle of themselves, as usual.
Carlos grins wider.
Diego steps out of the limousine first; he scowls at the light (or possibly just at the go-to pastel fashion of Auradon), and then exclaims: „Look – they have a band here!“
Mal pouts, and while Ben comforts her (he has the spirit, okay?), Carlos snickers. He missed his cousins, okay?
„Fuck your bands, Diego,“ says Ivy, pushing him aside, „It’s so fucking bright in here, it’s hurting my eyes.“ She goes silent for a moment, then gestures vaguely to Mal and Ben.
„That is hurting my eyes too. Does anyone have sunglasses?“
And why, yes, she is definitely talking about Mal’s frilly soft pink below-the-knee dress.
Jay nudges his ribs and whispers: „See you soon, man; cover for me,“ for, you see, Jade has perused Ivy’s chaos to sneak out of the focus, and the Agrabah cousins don‘t need an audience for their reunion.
Carlos flashes Jay a quick gesture for „I’ve got your back,“ and refocuses back on the limo.
Then Hunter, who helps out little Dizzy; Evie squeaks and almost runs over to greet her friend and hug her, her mother’s etiquette lessons notwithstanding.
Behind Jade, scowling Claudine Frollo exited the car, and damn it, her eyes–
Carlos is sure they weren’t that cold last time he saw her.
Dizzy brightly waves at Evie and rummages through her bedazzled purse; after a moment, she pulls out sunglasses (also bedazzled) and offers them to sneering Ivy. Ivy accepts them with a dramatic sigh.
Fine, and Diego’s elbow to her ribs, along with whispered „play nice–“
Ben clears his throat.
This does nothing to shut up Ivy, who had now started arguing with Claudine about a topic Carlos is truthfully afraid to understand.
Ben clears his throat again.
Unsurprisingly, they do not stop talking. Au contraire, Dizzy is now talking too – more like attempting to talk Hunter's ears off, but whatever. Hunter signed up for this by standing in her hearing range.
„Ben. Just talk. They'll shut up eventually,“ Carlos tells the king. He doesn't add „hopefully“ even though he really wants to.
„Yeah. Just talk louder than them. Stab them if they get too annoying.“ Mal glares at Ivy and Claudine a normal and non-concerning amount.
„Establish dominance,“ Evie pipes up, smiling sweetly.
„I- Okay. I'll do that,“ agrees Ben reluctantly and then raises his voice: „Greetings! Allow me to welcome you in Auradon, and in Auradon Prep–“
He steps closer to the group of newcomers.
„I'm King Ben, and you already know my companions.“
Another round of excited waving, some raised middle fingers (affectionate), and some glaring from Claudine Frollo.
„You must be Dizzy Tremaine,“ Ben greets the littlest girl first, „I've heard so much about you, all great things, of course. I hope you like it here.“
„Try to kiss me too and I stab you,“ warns Ivy, fully serious.
He kisses the girls knuckles as a true fairy tale prince, which leaves her squeaking; unlike his cousins, Carlos smiles at her excitement.
Unable to contain her happiness any longer, Dizzy runs off to greet Evie, and Ben turns to Ivy and Claudine.
„No stabbing in front of the cameras, Ivy–“ intones Carlos along with Diego and Hunter. You see, priorities.
„I will stab you too,“ adds Claudine with her eyes narrowed and her tone cold; she steps behind Ivy a bit.
„Yeah no don't mind her she just doesn't like human contact!“ says Dizzy brightly. She is probably quoting someone, but hey. She is right.
Though it does seem a bit hypocritical, given how tightly Claudine is clutching Ivy's arm right now. Ivy doesn't seem to mind.
Why yes, this is rather interesting.
„Okay. I'm not kissing anyone,“ says Ben, backtracking a bit, „Would shaking your hand be better?“
„Don’t even try–“ snaps Ivy instead of Claudine and briefly brushes her fingers against hers.
Ivy glares daggers at him but extends her hand; she then proceeds to nearly crush his palm. Good for her, Carlos thinks.
Ben glances towards smiling Mal and chuckles nervously before turning to Claudine, but Claudine just ducks further behind Ivy.
„WTF?“ mouths Carlos towards Diego silently; „Betting pool – later,“ gestures Diego back.
„I’m Diego,“ says Diego and puts his hand forward. Really, it looks like the young king couldn’t decide which boy is which.
„Anyway, glad to meet you, Claudine Frollo,“ says Ben, obviously doing his best to ignore the glares. He‘s doing a fairly good job: Claudine’s eyes are creepy, Carlos would say.
„And you must be Diego and Hunter de Vil,“ continues Ben, looking between the two remaining cousins.
„And I’m Hunter,“ grumbles Hunter, „Literally the only blonde de Vil in like four generations. Shouldn’t be that hard to figure out.“
„Yeah, yeah,“ dismisses Ivy, „We all know there is something wrong with you.“
Finally, Carlos steps out to greet his cousins, mentally saying goodbye to his hairdo.
Carlos tries and fails to not fall into a laughing fit.
The appalled „Excuse yourself?!“ is not really helping to be honest.
He ignores Ben quietly asking if there wasn’t supposed to be someone else too, and wait, where is Jay?
It doesn’t take long for the older two de Vil boys to trap Carlos in a bone crushing hug.
„Thanks, man,“ whispers Diego so silently that everyone could pretend he didn’t speak at all.
„Hey, wait, we’ve got your cat–“ says Hunter, as if he only just remembered, which, fair enough.
„Oh, shit, right–!“
Well finally someone remembers his cat!
Unfortunately, Ivy, that diva, (derogatory), chooses this moment to greet him properly too: She spins him around rather forcibly and hugs him for but a split second, then she holds him by his shoulders at arm length.
„Carlito! So long since we’ve seen you, and still so small! But the Auradon fashion works for you, I must say, baby cousin–“
„And still no manners, I see,“ sniffs Ivy with her nose up high before leaning back on Claudine.
Sure enough, she reaches out and ruffles his hair. That bitch.
The gesture is immediately repeated by Hunter; Diego is still busy wrestling Belzebub the cat out of the limousine.
Carlos growls at his cousins in distaste as he attempts to repair whatever damage they had done.
„And whose fault is that?“ asks Diego as he emerges out of the limo again, struggling mess of black fur and sharp claws in his arms.
„Our dear auntie’s, obviously.“
Yeah, the Cruella de Vil who had gotten bored and dumped the responsibility for etiquette lessons at her niece within an afternoon. Fortunately for everyone, Ivy didn’t stay interested much longer.
„Belzebub, how I’ve missed you,“ Carlos coos at his cat and scratches behind his ears; Belzebub purrs and calms down, to the absolute astonishment of the three older cousins.
„Whatever, Ives. Here, Carlos, your little furball of joy and murder.“ Diego seems glad to get the cat off his hands; the cat doesn’t seem too happy to be moved. It leaves Diego with a nice long good-bye scratch.
Whatever. The blood matches his vest anyway.
„Wait wait wait, you called that damned black cat Belzebub?! What is wrong with you people?!“
Carlos glares at Claudine Frollo. He didn’t think she could yell that loud.
„Betting pool – later,“ gestures Diego again. Carlos scratches behind Belzebub’s ears again – that fury’s shrieks had upset him – and decides to indeed let the matter go. For about as long as it takes to get to a more private area and get the gossip out of Diego.
„We’re literally called the devils, sweetheart,“ drawls Ivy, „Deal with it.“
…Sweetheart?
„Anyway, we’ve got letters for y’all, and we aren’t leaving until the baby king reads them.“
„Yeah maybe don’t call him Baby King to his face, Ivy?“
„Shut up. And you read.“ Ivy aggressively shoves a bunch of letters into Ben’s face.
„Letters? From whom?“ he asks.
„Why, from the Captains, of course.“
„I’m gonna go ahead and guess that you mean Uma and Harriet,“ deadpans Carlos, ignoring Mal’s intense stare that by all accounts should be able to kill.
„Obviously.“
Look, yeah, gang wars are fun and all, but must Ivy wave at Mal? And smile oh-so-sweetly?
Oh who is he kidding, of course she must. It’s Ivy.
„No murder in front of the cameras, you two,“ Carlos just sighs before turning back to Ben, who is attempting to open the envelopes with his short and manicured nails. Carlos joins his cousins and Claudine in ignoring that struggle and pretending that neither of them has a knife on them.
„Hey, wait–“ Evie comes to the rescue with scissors (Why on earth does she have scissors on her? …You know what, no. Carlos doesn’t want to know.), and Dizzy remembers that she too has several letters for the High King. From Anthony, from her Aunt, and from Uma, surprisingly: That one bluntly states that both Ivy and Claudine are a danger to themselves and should not under any circumstances be left alone. Active deathwish and lack of survival instincts and all. Neat.
Leave it to Uma to sugarcoat things.
Carlos pats Ben on the back and leaves to finally figure out what on earth is going on with Claudine Frollo, his cat in hand.
As he, Diego and Hunter walk away, leaving the king to Ivy, they wave at Jay and Jade on the roof.

They were in Brisk for the anniversary of saving both worlds, and they’d all had inadvertently started a tradition of giving small gifts to each other when they met up to celebrate the win. The gifts were never really anything too big, just little items that could be useful, or small trinkets and other knickknacks. Things that reminded them of each other.

I have a family reunion coming up in the next few days.
Unfortunately, The Ancients have deemed it poor form to use the opportunity to destroy all my remaining family members.
One would think Aku Aku is my primary target, and he is.
But Great Aunt Eko Eko didn’t get me a birthday present last year, so she’s also on the list.

Triple Threat Found Parents Au
Requested One-Shot: Now I just decided to put the most focus on the Triple Threat trio and decided to write out the startling aftermath of them figuring out their family lineage. This request took me a while to finish. I struggled figuring out what I should write for it. Again though I hope you all like it.
Tw/Tags: Triple Threat Timeline/Au, Minor Angst, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Supportive Friendships, Complicated Familial Relationships, Background/Referenced Childhood Trauma & Hopeful/Bittersweet Ending
Charles: Galeforce's Son
Ellie: Reginald & Right's Daughter
Henry: Terrence's Son
Request: I had this weird request for a story where Henry, Ellie and Charles were each a child of one of the older characters, (Like Charles being Galeforce's son, Ellie being RHM's daughter, Henry being Reggie and/or Terrence's son, ETC.) And the idea in my head was that Charles got to grow up with his parent, while Henry grew up not knowing who his family was, and ellie being separated from hers. The trio team up on a mission to stop the toppats and learn that Henry and Ellie have relatives in some of the characters. Then this makes it harder for them to take the characters to take them down and they try to let their families know who they are. Kind of an angst and reunion kind of dealio. Sorry for this strange idea.
***
Nearly bouncing on the balls of his feet in swelling anxiety Charles looked up at his two closest friends, "I. I can't believe it" 
"Me neither" 
As the pilot curiously looked over at Ellie, he noticed how she nibbled at her lips unsure what to say next and how to react even after her soft whispered reply. 
"I woulda never thought this would ever happen, y'know?" He said shyly, very uncharacteristic of him as he shrugged his shoulders while twisting the smooth fabric of his jacket with his hands. "That you guys would find your parents. After so long being separated. They're really something, huh?" 
Unsure whether to further the discussion Charles turned his worried eyes onto the ex-thief, Henry who stayed eerily silent through it all. 
"Are you alright, Henry?" Ellie decided to ask the inevitable question for both of them to Charles' inner relief comforting their worries. "I… Get this might be a bit much and we can always change the topic if you want? It's totally fine with us"
"N-no… No, it's fine. I'm just trying to comprehend this whole entire thing. All my life I never knew my parents, who they were, and now I know. It's just became much more confusing than before" 
"I understand, Henry" The redhead calmly spoke, taking a few cautious steps towards the man although kept her distance for his sake. "I was separated from my own when I was far too young. I didn't believe mine would be the current leader and his right hand. Not shocking, I guess. Kinda do look like the angry red-headed guy especially?" 
"And then I never would've thought I'd be the son of the previous leader. Possibly known to be the worst one of them all. Someone who's known to be awful. A backstabbing slimy lowlife criminal who weaseled his way into a title of immense power. It doesn't bring a whole lot of hope in me" 
"Hen, c'mon man don't say that now. We know you. You're better than that. Then whether it's true or not is up for debate and I'm not saying he's really bad or anything. Ellie and me know that and you most certainly know it" 
"You don't know that. We all know the saying here that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree… And Charles at least you had your father, who he was, and had a happy childhood with him. We didn't. I most certainly was treated like trash with nothing going for me. We were left in the dark about so many things"
Charles' face crumpled, shameful guilt taking hold in full force before stubbornly keeping a firm yet comforting trance with the pair, "... I get it. I really do. I had the fortune to have my dad in my life since I was an infant he'd decided to take in. He's like everything to me, the best supportive person around that I can know of. I'm super grateful for it. I still am despite all this. But I think I can try to understand a little what you two are feeling or I think I can? I've been left with the wool over my eyes too. Never knew my past either or anything. I only knew little tidbits because Galeforce would accidentally let it slip out and I may have overheard it. He continues to think I'm a wayward reckless child who can't dare began to understand this or be able to handle it" 
Stuck in the middle between the two men, the two were nearly red-faced in awkward tension before Ellie softly breathed in then out with even succession, managing her composure while taking Henry's bony hand in her own while the other held the pilot's who was totally engulfed by hers. 
"That's not start an argument over this, okay, please. It's sure to get ridiculous and we're supposed to be here for one another, right guys?" 
The men nodded in unison, Charles was obviously trying to resist pouting, agitated likely whereas Henry kept a closed off near unapproachable look.
"Okay. We'll try our best, El" Henry murmured, free hand dragging his face down as he gently squeezes Ellie's hand and then takes a quick glance over at Charles apologetic without needing to say anything. "Maybe we should talk to them about it then? There's many things they left unanswered for us. It's only fair" 
Nodding in agreement, very antsy, unable to keep still Charles in a seemingly better mood than he was a moment ago, "Yeah. We should. All of us together. I know you guys need to know more than I do and I think it may be wise to possibly get them together alone in one area privately. So we can properly question them more thoroughly. Clearly they all know one another and shared a past together" 
"Sounds like a plan"

The Incredible Shrinking Family?
The Incredible Shrinking Family? #Genealogy #FamilyReunions #FamilyTree
Image Credit: Quang Nguyen Vinh As I was flipping through an old family album after working on our family’s genealogy tree, I noticed as I branched out to the hierarchy chart of my generation, that so many of us had 0-2 offspring when our parents came from a family of 10-13 siblings. I thought about one of my high school classmates who everyone was astonished had 22 siblings when the rest of us…

Once lost, a sibling found, in fantastical realms where love transcends, two hearts entwined, the impossible made plausible, as worlds collide, acceptance blossoms.
