lets talk about Gisel Jude and Gianni!
Jude grew up alongside Carlos in house of De Vil and is lowkey the reason he (and Noemi and Diego but they spent more time with their dad) even survived Cruella. Jasper was a pretty abusive father and just as likely to let Cruella use Jude as a servant like she used Carlos or was as likely to throw things at him bottom line is Jude learned to be callous and angry from an early age and to stuff down his emotions because if he showed anything hurt him it would just egg his father and Cruella on. ( and the not being able to show 'weakness' thing fed the anger tbh) He's the reason Carlos has the line "they think I'm callous" in the intro song. Jasper would also constantly have him steal for him different products but always alcohol and cigarettes.
He met Gisel when they were both around 6 and running away from his dad ( tbd why but his dad was going to Punish Him severly) and after sharing a hideout for a few days ( she was on the run from Gothel) they sort of adopted each other.
He started fighting his father back ( and not winning but still fighting) around the time he turned 9. He sometimes would start fights with his father as his anger got worse but either way he usually went to Gisel to get patched up. ( she never asked for anything back and that stuck with him)
After Carlos was taken in by Mal's crew he and Gisel ( and Gianni who was with Gisel by then) found a hide out for themselves eventually that grew to include more kids Gisel found wandering around who weren't in any factions ( and so had no protection or ways to get anything) specially kids that were younger. ( there were times when even after joining both Uma and Mal respectively both Gil and Carlos would crash there for a night either to lay low or because they got in over their heads).
Gisel is the daughter of Gaston and mother Gothel and has been trying to get away from her parents since she was four or thereabouts. Mother Gothel would pretty much treat her like she treated Rapunzel ( since Gisel has no magic hair there's no need to keep her or her sister locked up but it's constantly criticizing and putting her down and there's a lot of resenment over Gisel being younger and then gaslighting her over the abuse) and Gaston ( who Mother Gothel would randomly drop her with when she didn't want to have a daughter) would just be creepy and expect her to pretty much do everything for him. ( think of the kind of role he wanted Belle to have in the house) She also would be told to go to one or the other if they needed her for a job.
She's always been incredibly attached to her siblings though ( Gil and Ginny in canon) specially since both her parents...couldn't be bothered with parenting them and Gaston specially would dump the boys on her and lowkey did most of the actual raising of them herself. Gil loves her tbh. Like I'm still working on the others but oh my god does Gil love her.
Carlos also has a lot of affection for her because when Jude knew he needed someone softer than him he would bring him to GIsel.
She ran into Jude when they were both running away and lowkey adopted him they kept meeting up after that and sometimes would patch each other up and share food or hide each other.
She found Gianni a bit after ( before Jude ran away for good after Carlos joined Mal's gang) and pretty much went "yup mine now" something she would do with a lot of orphans and kids their parents threw away for one reason or another but Jude and Gianni were the first ones ( outside her siblings) and they are v much her second in commands in the isle.
She's gained not quite imnunity but a lot of allyships so that her space can remain neutral by just taking care of kids ( she has imunity and protection from the warf rats and the vks bc of Carlos and Gil joining them tbd which but there's other groups she's garnered favors with.) Which allows her to survive without getting overly involved in fights. Mind you she can fight. ( she's Gaston's kid) and ofc they stil have to barter and be wary its the isle of the lost but it's how she's kept safe in a lot of ways. She's defientely done a few things she's not proud of to keep her kids safe.
Her main objective is to keep the younger kids safe and she's the one Carlos goes to when Ben starts helping him set up safe houses.
Gianni is the youngest of the trio and ran away from his father as soon as he was physically able to. He won't talk about it but they know enough about Honest John and Gideon and Strombolli ( and the fact they kidnapped young boys Before the Isle) to not ask. He started talking about two years later and became a good thief and fighter alongside Jude. He's a lot softer than Jude but also a lot quieter and of few words. He tends to keep to himself unless he's talking to Gisel or Jude or the younger kids ( he's actually as good with them as Gisel is) also he might have dated Gil at some point. He's not as bad as Gisel at taking in strays but he's definetely taken some kids to her specially ones caught up with his dad.
