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.

That would be so cool, for a Disney Channel Original Movie.

Like, Bal breaks up for valid reasons in Descendants 2. They clearly love each other, but they have different goals and values. That "He gave green eyes to the stained glass depiction of you, so he sees who you truly are," can still happen as a kind of closure; Mal does need to be told that who she is is enough. But she still instinctively uses mind magic to smooth over hiccups in her romantic life and feels no particular way toward Ben's goal of freeing the Isle kids.

Them feeling a lot of love for each other but still deciding to remain friends would be great.

(And before you say, "Disney would never turn away from a ship with that much foundation laid," I will respond, "Actually they do that all the time. It's just usually with women and girls of color, like Uma, Audrey, and Lonnie.")

And Ben and Uma were genuinely having a moment on that ship. They are significantly more aligned on their goals than Ben and Mal, and they are a better influence on each other.

While it's not Mal's fault that she was more focused on her own stuff than the altruistic goal of freeing everyone else, it remains the case that we know that wouldn't be a problem for Uma, and the reason we know that is because she says and shows over and over again that she doesn't just want freedom for herself; freeing the others is a driving force for her in a way it never was for Mal. Where Ben's feelings for Mal regularly distracted him from his stated goals wrt the Isle kids, his feelings for Uma would do the opposite.

Mal's fine; she's just not a queen. She and everyone would be happier if it weren't being asked of her.

I like the idea of them not being exclusive, having a sort of platonic, but naturally romantic relationship. Inexplainable to the outside eye. They're not exactly friends, the're not entirely a couple either.

It drives Ben a little insane at first because he is used to very strict social rules. Uma "claiming" him casually and without explanation is a pleasant if not unexpected change.

Uma starts to kiss him on the cheek as a salute, and Ben starts doing the same almost without realizing.

One day they're working in his office, and she gets close to touch the lines of his face. "Is this okey?"

Ben, flustered. "Yeah, sure."

Sometimes they kiss, and it feels so normal they never feel the need to talk about it.

First story is an au of sorts where it's more generic fantasy world and less Disney-fied. Ben would be the central focus and each chapter would basically just be him having sex with a different chara each time. The ones I have planned in my head are Mal, Evie, Uma, Harry, Jay, and Audrey. Ben is still a prince and I'm debating on making him a werewolf for the sake of one chapter of werewolf sex. Still on the fence about it. Mal is a fairy, Evie is a witch (and also Ben's handmaiden), Uma is a mermaid. Harry would still be a pirate and Audrey would still be a princess, but Jay would be one of Ben's personal palace guards

This is the story I've been thinking about for the longest time and would also be the longest one, obviously

The second is a Harlos one shot. The set up is something about Harry saying he wants to help cure Carlos's fear of dogs, featuring lots of pup play with Harry as the dog, of course, and Carlos as his master. So Carlos takes on the role of the dom, though I definitely imagine Harry being the one to top this time. Doggy style, duh

Third is an Umevie oneshot with more tentacle play. I imagine it being more lighthearted and humorous but still plenty smutty, with a kind of public voyeuristic element to it

And the last one is a recent idea but it's a third part to the Uma/Harry/Evie threesome adventures (that I came up with in the middle of writing part 2). But it would switch things up to where Harry is the one taking control, maybe as a special birthday treat for him or something idk yet. I just thought a role reversal where Uma had to follow his orders would be tons of fun. And of course Evie would still be the submissive little toy they share <3

So those are my ideas so far. Would love some feedback or something, so long as you're over 18!

Olivier and Gabby spend time lamenting their situations.

Man in D2 and D3 there is so much missed potiential for a storyline between Ben and Uma!

When on the Isle, Uma shows Ben the harsh living conditions of the residents. Ben takes this to heart and decides to work harder than ever before to bring the VKs to Auradon.

Honestly, a storyline with them kinda secretly communicating from the end of D2 to the start of D3 would be so awesome....
