Carlos: "Pros: you will be the cute one."

I lowkey love an Uma and Carlos relationship and everyone should check out Wednesday’s Child by @davidelizabethbowiestrider​

 - Uma always got looked down on for her short size and because Ursula wasn’t all that terrifying compared to other villains, so she tries to never underestimate anyone and doesn’t believe people when they say Carlos is a whimp

 - because she and Carlos went to different schools (Dragon Hall and Serpent Prep), Uma never sees his intelligence first hand. If she did, she would want Carlos on her crew

 - even though Mal and Uma hate each other, they respect each other. Uma knows Mal wouldn’t have someone on her crew unless they were special, so she always keeps an eye on Carlos

 - very formal to each other, for Isle standards. They are technically in different crews, but Carlos doesn’t seem to care much about that and he’s one of the few that never called her ‘Shrimpy’. She’ll mock him for joining Mal’s gang, but words don’t affect Carlos

 - Carlos will sometimes trade old sewing needles (which can be used as fish hooks) for some food at Ursula’s

 - once they’re in Auradon and Mal and Uma are kind of civil, she flirts with Carlos just to upset Mal and because watching Carlos stutter and turn red is kind of funny and not technically good or evil

 - Uma also encourages Harry to flirt with Carlos because Mal gets so irritated and defensive over them teasing one of her crew

 - it eventually wears off and stops making Carlos so flustered so gradually, when Uma comes to embarrass him, they end up talking like normal for just a few minutes

- as some of the only black kids on the Isle, Uma comes to Carlos whenever she wants a new style. Carlos always did Cruella’s hair and she always looked nice (for a disgraced fashion icon), so Uma comes to bother him sometimes.

 - Carlos asks her for swimming lessons in return and he confesses it’s always a fear in the back of his mind that he’ll be sent back to the Isle, surrounded by all the water and unable to leave.

 - Uma wants to be a marine biologist and Carlos likes all his science, so as they get older, they study biology together

In case the ask isn’t clear enough, these are all NSFW.

So it’s really hard to do this with 7 people. The original questions are meant for a two person ship (the questions ask ‘who is more…’ rather than ‘who is most…’ I don’t know how to answer this, but I’m doing my best.

Who is louder?

Harry and Jay. They’re just the loudest in general and in the bedroom is no exception. Though, Harry and Mal both have a thing for making Uma fall apart and scream.

Who is more experimental?

Evie because she’s the most social and has the most Auradon friends, who swap dirty sex stories over drinks. Seven people leaves a lot of room and all of them have at least one kink.

Mal likes to peg the boys.

Jay likes his hair pulled.

Evie likes double penetration.

Carlos likes some minor BDSM, mostly the dominance and submission. The way his face lit up at being called ‘a good boy’.

Uma likes to use toys on all of them

Harry likes bondage, but nothing too crazy, like handcuffs. He likes being blindfolded too.

Gil also likes some minor BDSM stuff. He just wants to please everyone.

Who takes more risks?

Mal and Uma take the most risks. They’re like fire and gasoline and like to make the virginal Auradon citizens blush and squirm while groping in public.

Lights on or off?

On. Lights off with seven people is a safety hazard.

Who is more likely to be caught masturbating?  

Harry and Jay. They like jerking off and they both like being caught.

Who comes first?

Carlos is pretty easy to make come because Jay, Evie and Harry usually gang up on him and hold him down while he gets fucked and blown at the same time.

Who is better at oral and who prefers it?

Jay and Evie are the best at it.

Harry, Carlos and Uma prefer it most.

Who is more submissive?

It can be any of them. Mal and Uma don’t like to submit to each other, Harry can be submissive for all of them, Carlos does what it takes to be a good boy, Gil wants to please and Evie and Jay are versatile.

Who usually initiates things?

It’s seven people, they all initiate, but have preferences of with who. Gil starts with Uma, Harry and Evie, Carlos initiates with Jay and Mal and Evie, Uma starts with Harry, Gil or Mal (sometimes Evie), Mal initiates with Uma and Evie, sometimes her boys, etc.

Who is more sensitive?

Uma, especially with her legs that still have magic coursing through them from when she had tentacles. Her thighs are a real weak spot.

More Ships:

Jaylos, Sea Three, Malvie, Balvie, Hevie, Core Four, Harlos, Jayry, Janelos, Benlos, Core Four and Ben, BenJay (King of Thieves), Audruma, HarryGilCarlos, Gilry, Bevie,  Dougie/Devie, Umal, Chadlos, Jayvie, Gilos, Umvie, Janema, Maldrey, BenCarlosJay, Barry, Evdrey/Audvie, Umlos, Janery/Harane, Jaydrey, Benma, MalJane (pretty fairies), Huma, HarryUmaAudrey

In case the ask isn’t clear, these are all NSFW.

Who is louder?

Jay is loudest. Carlos still doesn’t like to bring much attention to himself. Uma is loud, but never compares to Jay.

Who is more experimental?

Jay is more experimental. Uma has Harry telling her all of his crazy sex stories though, so she brings her own ideas.

Who takes more risks?

Jay. Carlos is shy and doesn’t want to be caught and Uma has to be respected as a captain, but Jay likes to make out in hallway closets or in the back of movie theatres.

Lights on or off?

Off. Carlos likes the dark and sometimes he and Jay still feel like they’re betraying Mal and have to keep their relationship with Uma a secret.

Who is more likely to be caught masturbating?

Uma. Being a captain is hard, she has to relieve her stress some days.

Who comes first?

Carlos. Uma and Jay gang up on him. He likes being in the middle, rocking into Uma while Jay fucks him from behind.

Who is better at oral and who prefers it?

Jay is best at oral, Uma prefers it most.

Who is more submissive?

Carlos, but Jay and Uma have their days.

Who usually initiates things?

Uma. Sex is a big stress reliever and she lets the boys know what she wants as soon as they walk through the door.

Who is more sensitive?

In case the ask isn’t obvious enough, these are all NSFW

Who is louder?

Uma is louder. Carlos is still soft spoken from growing up with Cruella, he doesn’t like to be loud.

Who is more experimental?

Carlos has Jay telling him dirty sex stories and Uma has Harry doing the same thing. Ultimately, Uma is a little more experimental, but their sex is never wild.

Who takes more risks?

Uma takes more risks. She’s used to being in charge and people not questioning her, but she does have a reputation to uphold and doesn’t want any of her crew to know anything about her sex life.

Lights on or off?

Off. Even though Mal has given her blessing (and threatened Uma) a thousand times, it can still feel like their relationship is something they need to hide in the shadows.

Who is more likely to be caught masturbating?

Carlos, but only because he likes to be fingered and is too shy to ask Uma for it. But when she catches him riding his own fingers, she brings him back a sex toy, just for him, but she gets to watch when he uses it.

Who comes first?

Carlos because Uma is usually in charge and he’s so easily excited when it comes to sex. But he knows his manners and never forgets about her, very happily using his mouth or hands a her command.

Who is better at oral and who prefers it?

Carlos is better at oral, which is nice because Uma prefers it.

Who is more submissive?

Carlos is usually more submissive. He doesn’t like to dominate, it’s too much pressure to be in control. But sometimes Uma doesn’t dominate either, they just take it easy and stop thinking and just let themselves feel.

Who usually initiates things?

Uma will usually initiate. She knows what she wants and how to get it. Carlos is sometimes too anxious to ask when he’s in the mood.

Who is more sensitive?

Uma still has magic beneath her skin, especially her legs, reminiscent of the times she had tentacles. Sometimes, Carlos lets his facial hair grow out for a few days, letting his stubble scratch her thighs and letting Uma clench the bed sheets and arch her hips up for him.

More Ships:

Jaylos, Sea Three, Malvie, Balvie, Hevie, Core Four, Harlos, Jayry, Janelos, Benlos, Core Four and Ben, BenJay (King of Thieves), Audruma, HarryGilCarlos, Gilry, Core Four and Sea Three, Bevie, Dougie/Devie, Umal, Chadlos, Jayvie, Gilos, Umvie, Janema, Maldrey, BenCarlosJay, Barry, Evdrey/Audvie, Janery/Harane, Jaydrey, Benma, MalJane (pretty fairies), Huma, HarryUmaAudrey

I kinda like Umlos. I think Carlos appreciates a woman in charge and Uma is very smug to have seduced someone from Mal's crew. I kind of like Jayma too.

Bro, I can’t believe I never thought of this!

 - Harry and Uma being pretty damn protective of their pirate crew and giving death threats to Jay, Mal and Evie if anything happens to Carlos

 - Jay’s like ‘aww, you mean that cute freckled kid? He’s gonna be my roommate!’

 - Uma whipping out her sword like ‘it’s such a shame you think with your dick, maybe I can get ride of it for you?’

 - Carlos being completely silent and still in the limo. He’s terrified because he’s the odd one out in this group, even if Mal includes him in her plan for the wand, Evie is trying to be friendly and Jay is laying on the charm like crazy

 - but when they think the limo is going off the bridge, Jay, Evie and Mal cling to each other and Carlos huddles by himself in the corner and immediately regrets leaving his friends

 - he’s roommates with Jay, who is always (purposefully) walking around their dorm without a shirt on

 - Evie squeals that she has someone with them who understands fashion, she and Carlos bond over sewing and designing clothes

 - Mal terrifies him and relaxes him at the same time because she’s the daughter of Maleficent, trying to take over a country, but she’s also a lot like Uma and Carlos misses his pirates more than he wants to admit

- he’s a little more athletic, since pirates practice sword fighting and swimming, so Carlos isn’t terrible at tourney, but goes out for the swim team instead

 - confides to Dude how much he misses Uma, Harry and Gil. Evie overhears it one day and her heart just breaks. Yeah, she’s away from home and her mother too, but at least Evie got to come with people she knows and cares for. Carlos came by himself

 - Evie going super out of her way to include Carlos in everything, so he starts spending time with the three, even outside of their plan to steal the wand

 - the three of them are like “crap, this guy is really smart and good with mechanics and plans, we should’ve claimed him for our group, let’s get him to join us”

 - Carlos talking about Harry, Gil and Uma with stars in his eyes, going on and on about how Harry protects everyone and Gil always makes sure the pirates have enough to eat and Uma is so intelligent and Mal, Jay and Evie realizing there’s another side to the group they’ve hated and fought with for so long

 - super doesn’t care about being evil, just about getting his pirate family to a better life and maybe slowly starting to care about Mal, Jay and Evie, so when they all choose good, Carlos grabs Ben right after coronation and is like “I have like a dozen people who need to be brought over NOW”

 - to his surprise, Jay, Evie and Mal vouch for the pirates too because any friends of Carlos’ must be okay

 - Carlos demanding that Mal’s crew and Uma’s crew get along, trying to play peace keeper

 - Uma thinking “okay, I trust Carlos and if he trusts them, I guess we can try to be friends.”

 - Mal’s crew and the pirates being a makeshift little family that originally starts as fighting over Carlos, but grows to Harry and Evie talking about make up and Jay fencing with Uma and Gil following Mal, completely awe-struck at her magic

 - all of them being friends

 - happily ever after

@mycroftinthemindpalace Thank youuu, hun! ♥️ This is so long, I'm sorry lmao.

First impression: “OH?” Just like that lol. I watched the “Rotten to the Core” music video on Youtube when Disney was hyping up the release of D1 and Carlos’ whole aesthetic caught my eye immediately. He was my favourite before he even opened his mouth. I liked the song, but I’m not sure I would have watched the movie if not for how quickly I adopted Carlos haha. I loved everything about his character in D1, but I was too proud to admit I’d enjoyed a DCOM that much, so. :’) Five years later, my SECOND first impression was “d*sney, I will see you in court, because this character is mine now” lmao.

Impression now: This is my son, Carlos. If anything happens to him… <3 No, but seriously lmao. I have said it before and I will say it again: Carlos is my favourite character in media, not just in Descendants. He brings me so much happiness and comfort and amusement and catharsis and inspiration and just *fist clench* I love him okay. I’m so glad he exists. <3

Favorite moment: Hmmm, there’s so many iconic moments… but one of my faves is that deleted Jaylos scene when he tells Jay he’ll miss Carlos the most. Jay’s amusement seems to belie a certain amount of surprise at how brazen that statement is. I love that moment because it shows how much Carlos has grown and how much confidence he’s gained in himself. More than confidence, even. It’s about self-worth. I just think about that scene sometimes.

Idea for a story: God, I really want to write an Umlos oneshot where Carlos almost drowns as a kid (on the Isle) after getting knocked off the docks, but he wakes up on this quiet rocky beach with a vague memory of a mermaid saving him, which makes no sense because the closest thing to a mermaid he knows exists on the Isle is Ursula and she’d never have saved him. Anyway, he goes back to that beach and starts trying to teach himself how to swim in the shallows, not realizing that Uma’s watching him with amusement from behind some rocks because that’s her quiet spot and she didn’t think he’d come back, but there he is… looking like a dying fish in the surf.

Eventually, she takes pity on his attempts, though it starts out mocking, like, “Maybe if you weren’t kicking like your knees were on backwards…” And they end up becoming friends, as much as you can be on the Isle. It’s only at that point that Carlos admits he realized some time ago that Uma was the “mermaid” who saved him. She rolls her eyes at that, claiming she’s no mermaid, just a damn good swimmer, and yeah... she ends up introducing him to her ragtag crew, which includes Jay at the time, and so begins a very big and complicated poly relationship between the Sea Three and Core Four, the end.

Unpopular opinion: This is semi-canon/semi-fanon and not at all an unpopular opinion among my mutuals lol, but anyway... Carlos was never cowardly or emotionally weak, the boy just has a hella anxiety disorder and PTSD, made worse on the Isle by malnutrition that stunted his growth. What he lacked in physical strength, he always made up for with quick wit and an inventive mind. No way he’d have survived otherwise.

He’s a tough kid, he just has involuntary reactions to certain triggers, like the way he jumps when Jay barks at him in D1 or the way he holds the shield up and goes into the fetal position when he realizes Jay’s going to physically run him down on the tourney field. More subtly, it shows in how he’s the last to choose good during the coronation scene because he’s thinking ahead to how their parents will react.

That may seem to contradict his characterization in those moments where we actually get to see him interact with Cruella in the movies: the way he rolls his eyes at her antics on the Isle and the way he yells at her during the Family Day scene, for example. It’s not actually a contradiction though. That’s just one way anxiety and trauma can manifest. Carlos’ reaction to danger/stress changes dramatically depending on his environment and the triggers he’s facing. He “fights” (Family Day scene), “flees” (meeting Dude), as well as both “freezes” and “fawns” (in front of Maleficent at the start of D1). Those are just some examples. I don’t know how to end this ramble, so let’s just...

Favorite relationship: *whispers* Jaylos (I know, I know, I’m a broken record lmao). Okay, but I adore Rotten OT4, as well. I have a special soft spot for Marlos, can’t deny that, but Carvie has my heart, too. And as for BROTPs, like… Janelos is super cute and Chadlos is fucking hilarious, so there’s that. (I’m also really soft about Umlos, but I live in rarepair hell with that one jkdljaklgdsjk.)

Favorite headcanon: Carlos is nonbinary! This is a headcanon I hold dear to my heart. I haven’t written (or rather published) anything where I state explicitly that he’s nonbinary in fic, but just know that if I’m writing Carlos… he’s nonbinary and that’s a fact.
