❝𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 are you doing? Dexter looks up from his spot on the bench startled by your appearance. “[Name]! Me? I’m not doing anything, I’m just watching the sun set,” Dexter gains his composure again, and rests his chin within the palm of his hand and his expression gives away something you don’t often see on the boy’s face when you’re with him.
You see sadness, and you’ll be damned if Dexter was sad when he’s with you.
Taking a seat next to him you too gaze out into the horizon, beautiful oranges and lovely shades of red cover the skies, “What’s on your mind?” You murmur, trying not to break the cal, atmosphere. “Something,” Is all he replies, turning away from you a little.
“Can I know what this "something” is?“ Leaning over you place your head against Dexter’s shoulder, and he tenses. "I promise I won’t tell,” You continue, while Dexter finally looks at you again, “There’s the handsome face I know and love.”
“Handsome?” Dexter looks at you skeptical, “You are Dexter, and don’t you dare think for one second you aren’t!” You poke at his chest playfully. “Yeah, if I was you would make this something on my mind go away,” Dexter mumbles, voice quiet.
“Dexter, can I tell you something? No — actually can I ask you something?” You sit up, moving back a little so that there is space between the two of you. “Yeah, what is it?” You turn your gaze downward, and mull over just exactly what you want to say before going further with this conversation.
“[Name]?” Dexter scans over your face, and you look back up at him, “Dexter do you like me?” Straight to the point, and Dexter does not like it all. “What?” He cries out shocked, while you just stare at him blankly. “It’s a yes or no question Dexter.”
“I mean — yeah! As a friend — well not really as just a friend — I love you — But then again I don’t love — I mean I do — I just — oh Hex I’m embarrassing myself,” he groans placing his face into his hands but you can see the tips of his ears turn ever so lightly turn a shade of pink.
“Dexter, I like you too.” You grab his hands, removing them from his face, and gaze at him shyly. “You do?” You nod as in yes, while the edges of his lips begin to quirk up and soon he’s smiling bigger than you have ever seen before, “Did Raven tell you?”
He suddenly turns suspicious, after all the rebel had been asking questions all week before he finally broke and confessed he had probably had — no, literally had the biggest crush on you in the world and all he wanted to do was explode with all these feelings whenever he saw you in the halls.
“Does it really matter, Dex?”
“No.”

The most effective thing about Ever After High is that every student has their own personal struggle that adds another element to just how life-ruining the destiny system is.
Apple is so terrified of what will happen to her if she doesn’t follow her destiny, that she is willing to compromise everyone else’s happiness to make sure it happens. This disregard for other people is only encouraged by the influential adults in her life.
Ashlynn has to be a servant to an abusive family and live knowing that the ultimate end to her supposedly happy ending is dying to set the stage for her daughters traumatic backstory, starting the whole cycle over again with no chance for any of them to escape.
Blondie feels so pressured to fit in to a deeply classist/monarchist society and ashamed of her parentage that she constantly presents a fake version of herself to everyone she knows, even her best friends.
Briar has to spend her whole life waiting for the moment her destiny comes and she falls asleep for a century. She knows that when she’s woken up, she will be forced to marry a boy dozens of years younger than her who she’s never met and live knowing that everyone she ever loved is dead and gone, the very things that she watched cause her mother’s emotional breakdown.
Cedar’s father was so afraid of watching her repeat his mistakes that he overcorrected, making it impossible for her to ever learn lessons for herself. She is also forced to share incredibly personal details with anyone who asks her questions, and can’t be trusted by her friends with any of their secrets, and it’s all because of her father’s past trauma.
Cerise has to hide who she truly is and never gets to see her family together and happy despite the fact that her parents have potentially the most healthy and mutually beneficial marriage in the whole franchise.
Daring was groomed from birth for a destiny that ends up not actually being his at all, leaving him aimless, feeling as though he has no purpose and has wasted his entire life.
Darling is forbidden by patriarchy and destiny to become a knight, the only thing she really wants, and at which she would be better than both of her brothers. She has to hide who she is and what she loves from everyone she knows
Dexter lived his whole life never knowing what his destiny would be but also knowing that whatever it was he’d have to commit to it forever the moment he discovered it at Legacy Day.
Duchess has spent her whole life knowing that the story she’s commited to living out ends in tragedy for her, and then had to watch the very people she’s been jealous of for years because of their seemingly happy endings give up those endings, while Duchess, loyal and rule following Duchess, is still stuck with her tragedy.
Faybelle tries so hard to commit to what she sees at her destiny that she’s never had a real friend in her life. Even still, no one recognizes her for all that effort and all she’s given up to be a suitable villain. Everyone is more afraid of Raven, who doesn’t even want to be evil.
Hunter has to constantly go against his moral compass to fulfill his destined role as a Huntsman and to try and make his father proud of him.
Kitty has been taught over and over again to value her Mother’s approval over all else, even at the expense of her friends. Her destiny is to create mischief, but how much more mischief can a dissolving world take before it’s too much?
Lizzie finds it almost impossible to express love or care for anyone else due to her mothers excessive conditioning that’s nearly akin to brainwashing. The saddest thing might be that her mother is actually, in her own way, trying her best to prepare Lizzie for a world that will only ever see her one way—as a villain. Now she lives in Ever After, princess to a kingdom that might not even exist for much longer, having given up everything for a destiny that may soon be impossible.
Maddie is a refugee forced from her home into a world she barely understands at a tender age. But she cannot express any angst or negative feelings about this circumstance, because to do so would go against her character. She lives in a world obsessed with destiny and stories while not even knowing if she’ll ever be able to return home and live out her story.
Raven is judged by almost everyone around her for her mothers crimes, many of which were required of her by destiny in the first place. She is nearly forced to commit to becoming a tyrannical megalomaniac (and almost falls into it herself, several times) who would be sentenced to lifelong punishment and torture for committing acts that weren’t even her idea in the first place, and the one punishing her would have been the very girl who begged so often for her to stop being so difficult and just follow her destiny.
