“magic and spells have never been my…interest,” she started, trying to think of the gentlest way to put it. viola wasn’t afraid of magic, at least she didn’t think so, but it wasn’t something she could harness herself and the only experience her family had was negative. anyone could poison anyone, though, magic or no magic. “so i never expected to crack that part of this – the how. i’m just struggling to even think of a why. how does turning auradon into a winter wonderland help the vks? not that i’m saying your theory is wrong. if this is part of some plan, they seem to be taking their sweet time with it.”

“   well  ---  maybe  this  WASN’T  their  intent  .   ”   tone  will  ring  with  suspicions  ,  but  could  you  blame  her  ?  she  was  SLEEPING  BEAUTY’S  DAUGHTER  ,  and  though  she  was  shielded  from  cruelty  her  whole  life  ---  she  knew  how  rotten  people  could  be  ,  if  they  wanted  to  .   “   i  don’t  know  .  all  i’m  saying  is  ...  it’s  fishy  .  things  like  this  ONLY  started  happening  when  ben  decided  it  would  be  a  good  idea  to  bring  the  villains  back  ...  which  is  a  bit  SELFISH  ,  if  you  ask  me  .   ”

“Yeah.” An obvious lie, but she hoped he wouldn’t call he out on the way her smile faltered. “Peachy keen.” An incredibly unnecessary addition that only served to make the demon’s response seem that much less credible. She should leave. Why wasn’t she leaving? It’s not like she could warn Herc that Hades had some scheme involving him. She’d never go against her family like that. Besides, even if she was willing, she had no actual details she could share. “I’m gonna go.”

This was a bad idea. Spending any more time with this boy outside of practice was a bad idea. Even allowing him into her band had been a bad idea. It seemed bad ideas were all Parker had these days. Her fist remained still just inches from the door, hesitation keeping her from knocking. She needed to leave. Hand fell back to her side as she turned away, only to hear the door open behind her. Fuck. This was a bad idea.

there was only one mode with dude and that was an extremely honest one. as he circled the snowdog, his frown deepened. never mind that snowmen looked literally nothing like any human he’d ever seen. for a snowdog, he expected better. he’d heard about people making sculptures from ice. surely this had to be easier? then again, he couldn’t speak to avery’s artistic skills. “c’mon, man. that looks nothing like me! there isn’t even a tail.”

most people probably wouldn’t tag along with their friend to watch him practice doing…sports things. she didn’t know the right terminology, but regardless, it was fascinating. and the way humans sweat! when hercules jogged over to where she sat waiting on the deserted bleachers inside the gymnasium, she stood up quickly and took advantage of her brief height gain from the strange seating to kiss him gently on the crown of his head. “you did great! i think! …your hair is very wet. and you…smell. how intriguing!”

“It’s good, I promise.” Personally, Lyla much preferred spiked hot chocolate to coffee, especially when the liquor involved was Baileys. And when she was the person handling the portions, all the better. She handed a mug to Charity before taking a big sip from her own, just to demonstrate how weak it was, then carefully controlled her expression as if she hadn’t just burnt her tongue in the process. “See? Honestly, you can barely taste the alcohol.” For Lyla, this was almost true, but probably not an objective fact.

although viola already had two younger sisters, audrey was definitely the closest thing she had to a third. enchanted sleep plagued both of their family histories, but that wasn’t the basis for their friendship. for whatever reason, viola saw a side of audrey that many others chose to ignore, and the girl she knew was one worth protecting. they had been chatting for a while before viola, subtly as she could, broached the obvious problem of the weather. “you know more about fairies than i do – do you think they’d really be capable of something like this?”

“   we  have  to  be  honest  with  ourselves  ,  viola  ,   ”   sigh  will  fall  from  cotton  candy  lips  ,  head  shaking  in  resignation  ---  audrey  rose  does  not  WANT  to  blame  the  vks  .  she’d  been  through  enough  with  them  ,  and  even  learned  to  love  a  few  of  them  .  STILL  ---  this  never  changed  their  past  ,  nor  did  it  change  the  faith  that  was  already  wearing  thin  .  this  was  magic  reminiscent  of  maleficent  ,  and  so  ,  it  was  more  than  easy  to  jump  to  conclusions  .   “   it  CLEARLY  has  something  to  do  with  the  vks  .  the  sooner  auradon  admits  this  to  themselves  ,  the  sooner  these  kinds  of  things  can  stop  happening  .   ”

“ yeah, we — wait, i can’t.” he stopped himself, internally patting himself on the back for resisting the temptation of alcohol. “ alright, well, i can’t get drunk but i can help you get drunk. i used to be pretty good at it, after all. ” he chuckled, waving down the bartender. “two – no three white gummy bear shots.” he turned back to the princess. “these taste so good and totally go with spring vibe.”
