Starter for @disheartcned!

Lucette had, with Ben’s blessing, undertaken a mini-project. A new group of Isle kids had arrived at Auradon Prep earlier in the week, and she was going to try her hardest to make sure they felt welcomed. So far, this had earned her several suspicious glares and some rather cruel remarks. But she persisted. She was good at persisting.

Next on her list was Aisling, daughter of the Queen of Hearts. Lucette approached her during lunch-break with a handmade card that said WELCOME TO AURADON in glitter-glue across the front, and a plateful of homemade cookies. “Excuse me,” she said, smiling softly. “Are you Aisling?”

“Well, that does have an effect.” Uther hummed before coming up behind Lucette and motioning for her to lift the bow again. “But a lotta it is to do with how ya pull it. Lemme show ya.”

Lucette held the bow out in front of her again, arms straight, and hooked her now-protected fingers around the string. “So how do I pull? Is there some sort of method?”

Uther nodded and moved to stand behind Lucette, he motioned for her to take the string of the bow again.

“Aye,” He hummed. “Keeps the string from touchin’ ya fingers. Now pull the string back and let’s see how ya do this time.”

Lucette hooked her now-protected fingers back around the string and pulled back. Her arm trembled uncontrollably. She relaxed her grip, embarrassed, and turned to offer Uther a weak smile over her shoulder. “I think I just have no upper body strength. At all.”

          there’s a faint blush   &   awkward smile at the idea ben   TALKS   about her . she wasn’t anything special … what was there to talk about   ??   ❝   oh , uh   —   yeah . i never really thought about it til i got to auradon … guess it’s an isle thing .   ❞

“I have my maman’s hair,” Lucette said with a fond smile. “It’s crazy curly. She doesn’t straighten hers, but I do,” she tugged on a lock of her hair, “obviously.” She slipped her bookmark into her book and closed it; somehow she got the feeling she wasn’t going to be doing much reading just now. “Sooo... is everything alright with you?”

Uther watched Lucette carefully, taking note of how she stood and held the bow, even where she put her fingers when she drew the string back. The most obvious thing he noticed was her strain, and apparent pain when she pulled back the bow.

“Just a sec,” Uther hummed as he rummaged through his things in a bag. Ah- “Here, take this.” In his hand was a small piece of gear, meant to protect your fingers when you used the bow. “Slip that on and I’ll show ya how to pull a bow back right.”

She took the gear and slipped it over her fingers. Holding her hand in front of her face, she wiggled them experimentally. Her movement was barely restricted, but her blistered skin was completely covered.

“Thank you so much!” she looked at Uther and smiled. “So this little thing will stop the string from burning my hands, right?”

Cedrick chuckled at Lucette’s words, shaking his head once more at the view of the other two. Looking back at her, he simply reached out his hand for her to take. “I think that’s what we should do.” he grinned. “Not sure if I can remember the steps your father showed me as well but I will try my best not to step on your feet.” he grinned.

“It’s alright. I think I remember how this one goes.” This was an understatement. With a papa like Lumiere, Plumette had been dancing almost since she could walk. 

She reached forward and took Cedrick’s hands. “So, if we’re being traditional, your hand needs to go on my waist, and mine goes here,” she released his left hand and placed hers on his shoulder, “like so. And then we start with this leg,” she nudged his knee with hers slightly, “and you step backwards.”

“well, yes.”  for the first time in her life, mal isn’t reading the stories of the villains looking for their mistakes, she is looking for the things that make the princesses…. princesy.playing an instrument seems to be a big part of that. “can you do it?”

“Of course I can.” Lucette is willing to do almost anything to help the Isle kids fit in- for Ben’s sake. “When are you free? Oh, and what kind of music do you like?” She knows from experience that learning an instrument is much more fun when you actually like the song you’re playing.

Uther nodded and watched her go for a moment before going off to put his own things away and collect whatever tools Uther would need to teach Lucette how to be a decent archer. He had a feeling there was a long way to go. He put on his arm cuffs to avoid his arms getting bruised and scraped, strapped his quiver to his waist, and carried his bow to where Lucette was waiting for him.

“Alright,” He started with a bright smile. “How ‘bout ya set ya'rself up 'n I’ll take a look at ya stance.”

Lucette grabbed her bow and stood up. “Well, usually I just sort of stand like this,” she turned so that she was facing the target side-on, “and I hold my bow like this.” She gripped the bow in her right hand, and wrapped two fingers on her left around the bow string. “Obviously, I’m not going to fire anything right now, but if I was...” she pulled the bowstring back as hard as she could, biting her lip to keep from crying out in pain. Almost as soon as she’d pulled it back as far as it would go, her left arm began to tremble from the strain. “And I can’t aim because I’m all over the place, see?” She relaxed her left arm and lowered her bow down to her side. “What do you think I should do?”
