Guys, stop fighting - all your OTPs are canon

Descendants fans, hear me out.

Descendants: The Rise of Red introduces the concept of multiple timelines - that one key event can change a whole future. We see two timelines within the same film. This means other timelines exist. Timelines where one event happened differently that caused a domino effect.

So your OTP could have happened in that timeline - without anything toxic happening (Bal without drugging, Berey with less Leah etc.)

Ben: Mal and I got married! Audrey: Stop going around sharing your personal problems with everyone

Who do u ship Audrey with? Do you think she's better off with a vk or ak after d3

Okay, so I'm a multishipper so I have a few... and these are it;

Pre-descendants Baudrey (Ben and Audrey before Ben started neglecting their relationship and all the other drama that came in d1 and after).

Pre d3 Chaudrey (Stopped shipping it as much after Audrey locked Chad in a closet).

Umaudrey (because they're both strong young woman who deserve better than what they got in descendants).

Gaudrey (because it's a cute ship and Gil is unlikely to do anything to hurt her).

Jaudrey (because it's cute).

And lastly, Haudrey. My favorite ship.

I know alot of people ship Huma and I do too but I ship Haudrey more because.. well, Uma doesn't really need anybody outside of her crew. She never longs for love. She never wishes for it. She just wants her crew and the other isle kids safe and off the isle. Which she gets.

I like to imagine that she remains happy whether or not Harry and her become a thing. I like to imagine that she becomes a successful singer as well as an ambassador/queen of the isle while remaining captain of her crew. Because she deserves that. She deserves to be happy with or without a man. So I can leave her without one in good conscience because she truly wouldn't mind having a man or woman.

But Audrey? Audrey's different. Audrey's trickier. Because I literally can not say the same things I said about Uma for her. Because canon has repeatedly squashed that idea and reinforced that Audrey needs love. That it's the biggest thing she wants-- since she'll become a queen with or without Ben. It's the thing she wants most. That and approval.

She wants her grandmother to love and approve of her to compliment her. Wants her aunt and uncle and parents to approve of and love her enough to stick around. She wants a guy to love who won't neglect her and split like Ben did even though she knows he didn't do it on purpose. Though she didn't always know that;

I mean look. Look at her. She definitely did not know that Ben was spelled in that moment. She didn't know that her boyfriend and friend since childhood wasn't humiliating her because he had been cheating on her and didn't care about her feelings. She didn't know that this was the work of a spell and that he probably would have dumped her more privately than this had, he has the chance.

And the fact that he just assumed that she didn't take their relationship seriously after the fact just because she kissed Chad immediately after (which was obviously her trying to make him feel as hurt as she was by kissing another childhood friend of theirs) and never had a conversation with her about it didn't help. Because it just made this poor, insecure, and somewhat socially awkward teenage girl think that she wasn't worth the apology.

Sure, she was a bit mean to the vks. But she wasn't the only one. In fact, if you watch school of secrets, it becomes apparent that a large majority of the school didn't want the vks there or respect Ben's choice to bring them there. Hell, there was a petition to keep the vks out of their school for God's sake that we never see Audrey sign.

She also helped Ben with the stuff leading to the vks coming there. Sure, it was mainly to spend time with him and sure she joked about her ideas scaring the vks off. But she still helped. The vks got picked up in a limo and got to eat sweets for the first time because of her. Sure, she deserved a bit of bad karma or something that would make her see sense regarding the vks. And sure, Ben was gonna dump her sooner or later.

But my god, Audrey did not deserve that. No one does. Certainly not a 15 to 16 year old girl who is learning all the wrong things from her abusive grandmother while her parents off doing God knows what all the time with her aunt and uncle while her grandmother pins her and her cousin against one another. Certainly not a teenage girl who thinks she's not pretty or smart enough. Certainly not a teenage girl who's been taught all her life that she has to be perfect or else she's an embarrassment. Certainly not a teenage girl who had been friends with that boy and dating him for God knows how long for years at that point.

Her boyfriend left her for the daughter of her family's enemy. A girl that was so very different from her. A girl that her grandmother would despise and go on to compare her to for the next year or two until she snapped and turned evil, and finally got that apology she deserved a year or two too late. And she had no idea he was spelled at the time.

And in exact same movie where she was dumped we see this. Her looking shocked and happy to see her parents at her ex's coronation. Shocked to see them at what would have been her coronation.

Doug and Ben weren't that surprised to see their parents at coronation or at family day. We never saw Audrey's parents at family day even though she and her grandmother make a seem. All of this seems to imply that Audrey doesn't see her parents as often as the other kids' do. And when you consider that this might actually be the case and that it has been for some time, it outs alot of her behavior into prospective and makes you feel even more bad for her.

Especially since they don't show up in d3 to check on her either. All she wants is love and approval and she clearly doesn't love Chad the way he loves her. Even though she apparently tried. So I ship her with Harry. Because Harry wants love just as badly as she does even though we see it less often.

We see him try and get love and approval from Uma who rebuffs him in d3 (which is her right). We see him do everything she wants. We see him lash out at those around them-- those who hurt the girl he loves/his bestfriend. We know from Cj's treasure that his father isn't the most stable parent out there and we see that he clearly looks up to him alot. He wants love and Audrey wants love. They both have faced rejection and have lead unstable, unconventional lives. Which is why I think they'd be perfect for eachother.

Because they'd both understand eachother in a way others can't. They both know what it's like to be rebuffed and overlooked and ignored. They're also kind of opposites, which means they can also help eachother in other ways. Harry can bring Audrey out of her shell and help her have some fun, and began to love herself again.

Audrey can help him learn how to properly apply make up and learn some patience. She can help him learn how to count and read clocks. Can help him get use to the sound of clocks. She can help him find some hobbies for him to do while Uma is at work and teach him how to control his temper. And they can both stand up for the other against their families and friends. They might not be perfect-perfect but they would be nice together.

They'd help eachother heal. Whether or not they would be dating one another. They'd make good friends at the very least. At the end of the day, I ship Audrey with Harry the most but I also ship Audrey with Happiness because I just want her and Harry to be happy. No matter who they are with. Oh and we know that Harry would respect her like he does Uma, which is another thing Audrey has always wanted. So, it would work because of all of that.

As for your 2nd question, I think she might go better with a VK because of the d3 incident. Because most of the aks seem to be very judgemental. So, yeah. Who do you ship her with?

Edit; TURNS OUT I WAS WRONG ABOUT ONE THING. AUDREY'S PARENTS WERE AT FAMILY DAY!

[infinityactual]

from the OTP questions ask list:

john/lasky: 3 & 11 & 19

beppe / audrey: 13 & 26

Johnsky:

-Favorite thing to tease each other about?

Tom mostly teases John about his proclivity for leaping out of starships or having to be retrieved from the vacuum of space by Pelican for other reasons. John occasionally teases Lasky about how his sense of self-preservation goes out the airlock sometimes, like when he decided to play Hunter Bait on Circinus, or charging a Promethean Knight.

-What good do they bring out in each other?

For the most part it's really just reminding each other that self-care is necessary, and that they each hold themselves to an almost impossible standard in their own minds and how to break out of that and realize that it's OK to seek comfort or to want other things that make them happy. But they also encourage each other to get out of their comfort zones now and then.

-What values do they not share? How do they reconcile those differences?

I can't really think of anything for this, not that immediately jumps to mind, anyway.

Audrey and Giuseppe:

-How do they express their love for each other? Do they have compatible love languages?

Giuseppe is very much a gift giver and a words guy. He'll bring an extra latte or pay for one for you if you hang out, or he'll tell you how he feels, mostly in writing. Audrey is an acts of service type, but also a gift giver, and that overlap very much works in their favor.

-How are they with PDA?

They don't give a shit, for the most part. They won't like...make out or get it on in public, but holding hands, hugging or kissing around others don't make them uncomfortable at all.
