i can go the distance

GRACIE. OLYMPIAN. FUTURE HERO. If dear old dad can do the whole 'save the world' thing, then so can I. Hercules is totally cool with letting his daughter be way more badass than he ever was. And don't even get me started on mom; Megara is like the synonym of 'brave girl who doesn't need a man' in the dictionary. Well... I just assume she is, I've never read a dictionary in my life. My English teachers probably figured that out when I started playing paper tourney five minutes into my first class in first grade. Anyway that's enough talking - the rest I can prove either out on the tourney field, or at home going head to head with the other Olympians (because what else is there to do for fun besides beat everyone at everything? Hint: the answer is nothing, if you ask me.) AGH/DESCENDANTS AU RP

Being the best at slacking is still winning at something at least. I was always an MVP if you think about it that way. Maybe you’ll get a baby cactus you can wear around your wrist, you’re tough enough to handle that, right? Yeah, no, I would’ve marched right up to Mount Olympus and offered to give Hercules like all my camels for the chance to take you dancing one night. It would be a death march, because I’m sure Zeus would strike me down in a second, but you could rescue me from your weird Uncle Hades so we’re good. Nah, my promposal probably would’ve been more of a rigging the scoreboard thing at the next game to ask or something, but eh, a reputation based on camels is fine but effort? Is not a good look on me.

AW, congrats, your name could have gone down in the yearbook by ‘Laziest’ or ‘Most Pathetic’ for your superlative if I hadn’t turned your life around. Pfft, of course I can handle a baby cactus, although if it starts to scratch me I’m taking it off and throwing it at someone, my wrists need to be in top shape at all times. Grandpa Zeus loves camels! Maybe. I actually have no idea if he does or not, it just would have been really hilarious to watch. Uncle Hades would love a visit from me, although if he tried to trade my life for yours, sorry, I’m leaving you right the hell behind. Effort’s a good look on the tourney field, don’t you forget it! But erasing our beautiful winning score to ask me to prom? I’d have been so pissed!

Maya: I thought you were known for your brawns, not your brains :-P

Maya: Damn you just won't quit

Maya: Maybe next fall. MAYBE. But you'll have graduated so you'll never know mwahaha

Maya: Oh, cow brains isn't that bad at least, it's nasty but it doesn't make you all seem like zombies at least

Gracie: I am, but it's prom season, which means everyone else around here is being an idiot :-p

Gracie: I'm very persistent.

Gracie: You think I won't still come back to see if whoever takes my place has let my team fall apart? :-p

Gracie: That sounds like some kind of weird failed zombie diet.

Sometimes it’s more fun than actually playing the game! Not always, or even often, but sometimes, at least to me. The two MVPs kicking it cas style, alright! I just hope you know that I reaaally want you guys to win prom royalty now, even if you don’t think you would - imagine how hilarious it’d be if the prom king and queen were dressed in sweatpants in the yearbook and in the photos in the hall? It’d be epic!

 You’re playing the wrong games if you feel that way, kid. Yeah, you go telling that idea to other people and you’re going to live to regret it. If we win any kind of weird coupley award at prom, I’m making you run so many laps that your legs fall off.

Maya: Damn :-P I would've denied you guessed the right hot guy even if you did tho so good move

Maya: Stealing stuff is a more *fun* kind of effort. Earning it is...way less of a thrill.

Maya: At least it wasn't human shit, but my mom liked mixing weird potions to try to make us magic and it ended up being, like, part newt blood and part dish water and part guano and just...no thank you. Even the snails here taste good but BRAINS? Yall eat brains?!

Gracie: Smarter than your average Auradonian :-p

Gracie: Clearly proof you need to come play tourney and see for yourself how good it feels to be rewarded for hitting people with a stick :-p

Gracie: I think it's cow brains or something? I don't know, I didn't say I EAT IT, just that people do.

Psh, heck no. I’m in high school, now is the time to waste time in that field, anyway, so long as I kick butt at something. Which I do, thanks to you. Yeah, yeah, whatever - you can wear as much or as little as you want, I couldn’t care less. It’s not like we’d be posing for senior prom pics or anything, or doing the weird wrist flower thing, so it’s not like it matters, and it’s not like I really want to go, but we’re seniors. Having a good time and leaving to have a better time sounds alright in my book. And - yeah, wow, you’re right, saying more just makes it sound like I’m a secret Tim type who wishes he’d done a promposal instead. Which I’m not. Obviously.

And don’t you forget it, Agrabah; you were like slacker central before I got to you. Somehow I have a feeling your sister’s not letting you out of the house without a flower, but sure, you tell yourself you’re not showing up with nice things for me, it’s fun to watch you kid yourself. Would your promposal have involved camels? I’ve heard they’re kind of your schtick, you’ve got a real reputation these days

So not one of those win-at-all-cost gals. Interesting. I’ve always kinda thought a win was a win, but I guess when you get so many wins, you can be picky about how you earn them! Prom slob, yes! Prom needs more slobs - who are you going casual Friday with?? I have zero clue if there’s a dress code but I’m sure you can get past a bouncer if there is one. Do high school proms have bouncers??? Or prom police, for that matter, which would’ve been a fun epic prank had I not already picked one out. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you see it. It’s going to be legen-dary…but like, quick check, no chance you’re going to win prom queen, right? Just making sure.

Why would I want to cheat to win, though? That doesn’t mean I’m good, it means I didn’t think I was good enough so I played dirty – that’s just stupid, if you ask me. Gavin; he told me I could wear sweatpants so clearly he’s the only guy in this joint worth hanging out with. You think I know that? Sorry, you’ve gotta go for yourself and figure it out because I have no idea, and it’s not like I’m going to go around looking for them. Me? Prom queen? Ew, hell no. I have no idea who the crown’s going to but it won’t be me

A musical about cheerleaders is amazing! Not that one about tourney players couldn’t be too, but no one has written it yet, and choreographed tourney plays might be just a teeny tiny bit harder to rehearse. Sadly, though, they’re totes cheering for a football team instead, so there’s literally no tourney at all, but you’ll still come see it, right?

I mean... I guess I can come see it, I would have considered playing football if I didn’t have any better choices. And you guys do cheer really loud for us, so we could show some support back. Still... you might wanna consider actually writing that tourney musical, you’re smart enough to do that, right?

Boob cages! They should actually rename bras that, it sounds way more metal! I feel like if I was a super competitve sports girl I’d want people to stare at my rack - it would make it easier to distract the other team and make it easier to win! You could wear sweats to prom! Who would stop you, the prom police? Oh, I live for big talk. I made it on the tourney team, didn’t I? I’m Trevor, I can do anything, and the Lost Boys are ACHING to pull something epic, and so we shall. I’ll make sure you dont’get caught in the cross fire.

I was going for accuracy but metal works too, if that’s what you consider hardcore. I personally don’t get the headbanging scene but you go ahead and try it, little guy, see how it works for you. Uh, no way, I’d rather win because I’m good, and anyway your boobs flop around too much unless you wear sports bras, which squish them and kind of eliminate the wow factor. Well, I found someone who encouraged me to be a prom slob, so maybe I’ll be there after all -- I can report back if the prom police try to stop me going in just because I’m not all formal. The crossfire sounds hilarious, though, make sure I don’t bail on prom before I see it.

Maya: You have eyes, you know :-P The one hot one, duh

Maya: Earning isn't as much as stealing, it's like effort and effort is gross

Maya: Dude, you don't wanna know

Maya: Unless you do

Maya: In which case the answer is semi literally eat shit :-P

Gracie: This seems like a trap. No way am I calling any of my teammates hot to you, especially if I end up guessing the wrong one :-p

Gracie: Stealing stuff without getting caught is effort, too, this is just a different sort of effort.

Gracie: Nasty. I think the worst thing they eat here is like, snails and brains.

I….have even less of an idea than you do, actually. Damn. Now I’m starting to wish I’d actually noticed anyone else in high school, but oh well, at least it’s almost over soon. But, you know, there’s another way to avoid being voted that, and that’s take an even hotter girl to prom with me - what about it, Girlcules? You want a lowkey “date” who won’t care if you don’t wear a dress and would be cool ditching early to go watch a tourney game or something? Because the future is all far off and unknown but like, prom doesn’t have to be unknown or weird or anything. It can just be chill. 

Aww, does somebody feel like they were wasting all their time on Emma and Bethany and not seeing there’s a great big world out there? ‘Because honestly, Agrabah, you at least did the tourney thing so you’re better off than a lot of people are, I’m sure. You’re asking me to go to prom with you? And I don’t even have to wear a dress? Well damn, how could I resist that last part? Throw in a trophy and I’m there; if you’re going, then I’ll seem like a real slacker on the social scene, and I won’t even have anyone to train with during the dance instead. Yeah, yeah, you’re better off if you quit talking while you’re ahead, Agrabah, don’t try to sell it so much, you almost seem like you want to go.

Okay, so I have a brilliant beyond brilliant idea: Bring It On the Musical. I know it already exists, but like why has Auradon Prep never put it on as our spring musical? It’s totes the only way to make sure all of the most talented people in school are in it, since I’m sure Mason and I would lead a flock of cheerleaders to the auditions. Thoughts, Auradon Prep Drama Club? Classmates who would be filling the audience to watch our future masterpiece? Anyone?

A musical about cheerleaders? Seriously? Please tell me it at least like, heavily features them cheering at tourney games or something to make it more interesting.

Seems to me the answer then is to get in good with the yearbook people to avoid a Gavany disaster, thanks for the idea, Champ, you’re the real one! So, what you’re saying is that you want me to win so that you can get even better? I’ll try to win, then. For you and your endless college tourney potential, because I probably won’t even play in college, I don’t think. Or I hadn’t planned on it, I guess, but I don’t know, everytime I start thinking about the future I snap the hair tie around my wrist and stop. Hmmmm, there’s plenty of demi-god guys who’d love to be fake-paired up with you. It’s all about who annoys you the most, Nicest Eyes.

Who’s even on the yearbook status? You feel free to go for that but like… I literally have no idea who those people are, I’ve never bothered to pay attention, not even when they come interrupt practice to take those annoying team pictures of us. Really? You’re probably good enough by now if you did want to, and it would be kinda cool to have some familiar teammates out there with me. But less competition for me; I’m not going to complain if you’re too lazy to get your butt out there and keep keeping up with me. Well, I don’t give any of the other demigod guys the time of day, so good luck with that. Can it really annoy me if I don’t even know who they are, Cutest Couple?

Maya: There's, like, only one dude on the team hot enough to stare at, pass :-P

Maya: Who needs trophies? It's a waste of perfectly good metal.

Maya: I could be :-P But I kinda like not having to do anything. It's a nice difference from home.

Gracie: Oh yeah? And who’s that? I gotta be prepared when you start distracting one of my teammates.

Gracie: I thought villain kids stole shit to have as trophies. What’s wrong with earning one a different way?

Gracie: What did they make you do on the island?

You’re allowed to wear sports bras when you aren’t playing sports??? Wow, I know nothing about girls, I thought that was like a hard and fast rule! Finally, though, someone who wants to TP who can throw farther than ten feet! This is gonna be lit. I like the way you think, though; prom is a pretty okay back-up plan but why would you plan to spend way too long standing around with people that are way too dressed up and feeling awkward? It’s weird. Me? Oh, nothing major. Just the prank of the century.

Yeah? Why not? They’re way more comfortable than those other boob cages they make for us.  People who are trying to show off their rack would never wear one, but I don’t want people staring down there anyway. Dressing up isn’t really my thing — if I could go in my tourney uniform and just eat good food and chill, I’d be so there, but the dress is a dealbreaker. Or like, needs a lot to balance it out, I guess. That’s mighty big talk, you better be ready to actually back that up, munchkin.

Eh, we’re usually pretty strict about the no-girls thing, but who wouldn’t want Gracie on their team for anything? A team with Gracie is the winning team, so welcome aboard! You gotta good throwing arm, that’ll be awesome for long-distance TPing of promposals. Honestly, riiiight? I never got why you guys thought me and Mel were too obsessed but now it’s all coming together. You’re still going to prom, right? Dancing for a whole night is kind of fun if you look past the gooeyness of it.

Then don’t think of me as a girl; I’ll wear a hat and a sports bra, you’ll hardly be able to tell the difference. Absolutely, I can’t think of anything I’d love more than to launch toilet paper across the halls of Auradon Prep. Um, hadn’t thought about it. Maybe, if I get a good pre or post party offer and there’s no good tourney games on TV that night. What are you going to do while you’re busy being somewhere better than prom?
