“You do realise I was one of those people, right?” Sure it had started out like that but his good heart won her over. What could she say, being good had way more perks than being evil, and she’d never really been good at the whole ‘evil thing’ anyway’. “I totally get points for giving you the antidote though, right?”

“The first but not the last? Is that what you’re saying?” he teased, but he nodded his head. She had never been the ‘evil’ girl that people had thought that she was, just something no one had been expecting. Someone that no one was used to. “That was when I knew I could trust you. Like really trust you. Against all the odds, you proved that one ‘bad’ deed doesn’t make a ‘bad’ person.”

"What are you doing here?" Uma asked, crossing her arms over her chest. "Does Mal know you're here?" She said 'Mal' like the name was poison on her tongue.

Ben took a breath and look at Uma, thinking about what to say so that he wouldn’t cause some incident. “Does it matter if Mal knows if I’m here or not. You act like she’s my keeper or something. Contrary to popular belief, I do come and go as I please.”

She listened to his surprisingly earnest explanation with a raised brow.

“Of course not. Because the majority of the people on this island, are children of the original villains that were banished here. Relatives, things like that.” She told him as she looked at him. She didn’t know why she was being so open with him about this. She didn’t know why she wanted him to know all these things, or why she cared what he thought. Uma just did.

“What did your mother say to you to get you to look at the concept of this place differently?”

He knew his father, and while his father saw things in black and white usually, Ben didn’t believe that he had meant to create the world that he had created. Seeing the Isle had opened up Ben’s eyes to a lot of things that he was sure his father would see if he saw it too. It wasn’t just some place to push off the ‘villain’s...it was more like a prison, just like Uma had said.

“She was telling me the story of her and her father and I remember asking what made her stay. There was a point there when she could have left him, but she knew even before she could admit it that something was there. Under all the anger. She gave him another chance, and I suddenly couldn’t understand why the kids from the Isle couldn’t be given the same courtesy.”

“FYI, I’m totally researching if there’s any kind of protection spell to stop you getting love-spelled again.”

“Good, because I need it. If there’s one thing I can’t afford, it’s being spelled to be in love with people I barely know that just want my kingdom.” Serious as he felt about that, however, he couldn’t help but smile a little as he said it.

“They don’t,” Melody laughed, sitting up and looking Ben in the eye. “Look, you’re not the first person it worked on, and you won’t be the last. My father went through it too and he’s fine.”

“None of this makes me feel any better so how about we do something else? A swim maybe? I would much rather swim than talk about mind control making me do things.” He just wanted to forget all about it until he could do something about it.

Uma couldn’t help herself. A sound that was supposed to be a laugh but probably sounded more like a scoff escaped her. “Oh, really? And just what did you expect to see? This is the island where your father dumped everyone himself and the designated ‘heroes’ didn’t like.” She told him. “Did you expect it to look like Auradon?” Not that she knew what Auradon looked like, but she imagined bright colors all over the place. Lots of sunlight, instead of the perpetual cloud hanging over the Isle.

“Sorry to disappoint your majesty, but let’s just say this place is more prison than paradise.”

He hadn’t expected that to be very well received, but he took a breath anyway and continued. “I don’t know what I expected really, but not this much danger? All my life I’ve thought of the Isle as just a place where the ‘villains’ lived and then my mother said something to me that made me start to question the entire thing. I can’t just absolve the others of what they’ve done, but so many people here haven’t done anything to anyone."

Ben wasn’t even particularly sure that Uma would care about a word that he said but that didn’t make him mean it any less.

   Punzie took a deep breath, trying to think of a way to explain how SHE thought it ended up happening. The last thing she wanted to do was hurt Ben. The choice to throw the villains on the Isle hadn’t been his. “Honestly, I don’t think the villains having kids was really thought about?” Or kidnapping kids, in her case. “Or it was ‘ what would be a better idea? Risking children who are as bad as their parents interacting with the children of royalty or letting them stay with their parents where nothing bad can happen? ‘ Neither sound all that great, but those are just my guesses.”

Ben had thought about his father’s decision since he could understand it and it hurt him that the choice had been so wrong. Obviously some of the kids were making bad choices, but how much of it was because they were on the Isle in the first place? How many of the ones in Auradon would be ‘good’? These were the questions that Ben asked himself even more now that he was King and in charge of a lot of the decisions. He just wished he got it. “I understand trying to group all the villains together, I do...I just feel as though in not thinking it through there’s a whole other problem I’m not sure can be avoided.”

That almost made him sound like a tourist. Until he mentioned that he needed to know the Isle, too, being king and all. “Fair point.” She responded, albeit grudgingly. “Well, then, what’s the verdict?” He wasn’t her king, so she wouldn’t address him as such unless it was to mock him.

It felt...odd being here. This wasn’t exactly what he had expected to see when he had thought about the Isle and he had thought about it a lot. His father had banished all of the villains here thinking the kids would be inherently evil too and while Ben didn’t believe that anyone was inherently evil, he hadn’t quite expected to find what he had found.

“It’s not what I thought I’d see.”

lxstpriincess:

   “ That’s all we were raised in, it wasn’t easy but it was life. “

He wished that he knew what to say to try and make her feel a little better about it, but that was just how it was: they were used to it. “I just don’t understand. How did such an idea manifest like this? It didn’t start out malicious...you know...making the kids stay there.”

Uma cocked her head slightly to the side at his response. That was an interesting way for him to respond. “Well, then what brings you here? I mean, surely the King of Auradon has better things to do then visiting us lesser folk here on the Isle.” Her tone continued to drip with sarcasm.

“I’ve always wanted to see the Isle,” he admitted to her as he took another breath and straightened out his jacket. In fact, ever since his first declaration he had wondered if he’d ever get to just come here. As a child he’d wondered how the others lived. “As King of Auradon I have to know of the Isle too.”

“yer so bloody obvious, love, ‘s almost funny.” almost, but not quite. “why y’here? got tired o’ livin’ th’ hard knock life, did ya?” harriet drawled. the pirate captain canted her head just so, wondering why he made his way to the docks of all places. “‘s all good, m’lord, i ain’t hurtin’ ya. this is ‘tween uma’s crew an’ th’ rotten four. i got no part in it, unless me brother’s hurt somehow. then uma atlantica will be th’ least o’ y’worries.”

Here Ben had thought that maybe he was getting the hang of this, but obviously that wasn’t the case at all. Instead she could see right through him and yet he wondered if he could try to get away with it. It might blow up in his face, but at least he would have tried. “What’s your name?” he asked her instead, wondering if the subject could at least be changed away from who he really was instead of who he was pretending to be.

Hugging his mother, Ben took a moment to breathe in her familiar scent and remind himself that he was home. Anything could have happened on the Isle, and it had opened him up to a lot of stuff that he wanted to change. “It’s okay, Mom, I promise...I’m home.”

Eric nodded, understanding completely how he felt. “At this point, you just have to make it up to everyone somehow. I wouldn’t dwell on what you could or couldn’t do about it.”

He didn’t like that there was really nothing to do about it, but he nodded at the older man. Ben wanted to make sure that he was never in that position again, not wanting to just accept that he might not be able to do anything about it. “What if we just destroyed the conch?”

“Only if you take me down with you because I’m not facing Melody if I kill you.”

“You’re right, if we make her too mad, she’ll drown us.” Ben contemplated it all for a second and then took a breath. “So...what do we want to do then?”
