I'm doing a 10 true loves challenge for Evie. So 10 prompts for 10 different Evie pairings. Since I can't decide who I'd like to go for which prompt I figured I'd offer it up for suggestions and see what the plot bunnies vibe with!

Who I'm willing to write with: Jay, Ben, Harry, Uma, Carlos, GIl, Audrey, Chad, Jane, Lonnie. (If you want to go crossover, I'll also so Wyatt, Zed, Eliza, Wynter from Z-O-M-B-I-E-S) You can also offer up polyships...so like Evie/Harry/Ben, Evie/Uma/Harry/Gil etc. Can also be just friends with anyone besides who I have above...those are just the romantic choices I like.

Evie x who?

Prompts:

Stay

Warm

Peace

Choice

Home

Laughter

Forgiveness

Love

Life

Mal: When they were kids. They had a lot of fun running around and wreaking havoc, and they shared a lot of inside jokes, and Mal wasn’t used to other people making her feel happy. Naturally, she didn’t know how to handle these feelings, which is why she lashed out. She came to resent Uma for making her feel things, but she also never stopped having feelings for her.

Evie: During D3. Uma’s queenly look in her cecaelia form was already stunning, but the moment when Uma said “Guarantee me that every villain kid that wants to gets to leave the Isle for good,” followed by “You can’t do that...Well how ‘bout now?!” as she held the ember over the side of the bridge really made Evie feel a certain way. Compassionate and bold is quite a combination.

Carlos: He related to her a lot when she was being bullied and mocked, and he admired the way she handled it. In the time between her being given the nickname “Shrimpy” and Mal not letting her join the group, he had a huge crush on her, second only to his crush on Jay (and more obvious, since he was hiding his crush on Jay as much as possible). Once Mal refused to let her join the gang, though, he actively made himself ignore Uma, because he wanted to stay on Mal’s good side to stay protected. By the time the series starts, he no longer has feelings for Uma.

Jay: They bonded over their shared eel babies. Whenever he visited Ursula’s Chip Shoppe, he came with a new pick-up line for Uma, and the fact that she sometimes laughed at them and Harry hated it just made him enjoy it more. When they would argue about raising the eels, they legitimately sounded like parents. It was also a funny way to annoy Mal; the fact that he flirted with everybody meant that she didn’t take his flirtation with Uma seriously, but it annoyed her regardless. He still has a soft spot for Uma during the events of the series.

Ben: Obviously, while he was captured. More specifically, during their conversation about the Isle and leadership. He was refreshed by her honesty and seized by a need to understand and know her better. From then on, he protested whenever anyone had anything bad to say about Uma, and if she wanted to kidnap him again, he would 100% let her.

Audrey: After she was done dancing with Harry and he returned to Uma. Seeing the way he bowed to her and she accepted it as though it were to be expected entranced Audrey, and it wasn’t until later that she came to realize that she was more entranced by Uma herself, and the innate power she possessed, than by her relationship with Harry. The fact that Uma seems so unfazed by all of the Auradon Prep social drama (like Audrey wishes she were) adds to her cool factor, and the fact that they can share exasperated looks when Mal does or says something ridiculous is nice, too.

Jane: The first time she walked into Ben’s office and Uma was there. She had entered to confirm a few details for an upcoming council meeting, but the moment she saw Uma, she froze for a second, before reminding herself to continue asking Ben the questions. (Mentally lambasting herself for still being startled when she saw VKs in unexpected places.) To her surprise, Uma not only answered the questions in Ben’s stead- she answered them quickly and readily. She was a skilled organizer, and the expectant way she looked at Jane once she was done answering questions (as though ready to answer more) and the way Ben seemed completely comfortable with letting Uma make these decisions in his office were both very attractive. Jane went bright red and did not stop blushing the entire time she was in the room, to the point that Uma raised an eyebrow at her. She cannot make eye contact with Uma, ever, and she giggles too much around her.

Chad: The first intense conversation he had with Uma. Naturally, as soon as she started at Auradon Prep, she began fighting for rules to be changed, of course including rules about what girls weren’t allowed to do. Chad pushed back on it hard, to the point that Harry once got in his face and told him to mind his manners, but Uma just amusedly told Harry to back off. She gave Chad an unimpressed smirk and gestured for him to get out of her way, and he did so, reflexively (to his own embarrassment and kind of enjoyment?). To compensate for the submission, the next time he talked to her (which was incidentally right before they were both about to make their cases to the school’s Board of Advisors), he tried to intimidate her, but she only smiled widely and said, “Look, Charming, either I make you cry in front of your parents’ friends, or you decide this isn’t the hill you die on. Your choice.” During the board meeting, she proposed a demonstration in which she would spar Chad, and she had him flat on his back with her sword to his chin in under fifteen seconds. The next day, he offered to carry her books and Harry glared at him.

Lonnie: The first time they sparred. The unique challenge of parrying Uma’s fluid movements and the tantalizing moment when their blades were locked together (and Uma smirked at her fiercely) were exhilarating. Every fight they ever had ended up traversing whole rooms, and Uma’s refusal to just surrender or laugh it off made the whole thing more thrilling. Pinning Uma was a remarkable triumph; being pinned by Uma was...surprisingly...also very pleasant? And Lonnie being fearless, she leaned up and kissed Uma the second time Uma pinned her, and the pirate captain laughed breathlessly and helped her up. The fact that Uma got the rules changed for all of the sports teams that excluded girls was just the icing on the cake. She’s not fully smitten, but she always gets butterflies when they spar, and if Uma invited her anywhere, she would absolutely go, no questions asked.

Harry: When they were kids (and before Mal did). It was almost love at first sight, but more accurately, it was a crush at first sight that developed into love the more he got to know her. He would literally kill for her and probably already has.
