Seems like the Descendants franchise is keeping its tradition of being gay as hell without no one actually being canonically queer.
part 12 aka carlos + (gay) ships
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.)
Gayest and sweetest moment in D1
okay so maybe i like Ben/carlos.. 💔
BEN CALLED HIM FUCKING GOOD BOY WHY DO WE IGNORE THAT??? HELLOOO???
my mama watched descendants with me the other day, it was her first time seeing it. during the first scene with the dog where Carlos climbs up the tree, she asked me if Ben & Carlos were gonna get together. I had to tell her no ofc, but I lowkey saw the vision??
Just realized I haven’t wished anyone happy pride yet, so happy pride to the following
-Arthur Pendragon and Merlin
-Ahsoka Tano
-Everyone in the original 3 Descendants movies
-Loki (in all iterations)
-Nico di Angelo and Will Solace
-Nimona
-And those 2 random boys asking each other if they “looked gay” while checking their reflections in a store window
