    Summary

    Evie likes to watch Jay’s tourney practices. Or more so, she likes how it’s the perfect excuse to spy on the cheer team. She likes watching the fly girls the most. Audrey especially. She’s tiny and slim in a way Evie can never achieve. They toss her in the air with ease, with abandon, there’s no worry for the fall. If Audrey were to crash, Evie is certain that fairy dust would catch her. A fairy blessing. Sometimes, Evie wonders what would’ve been if Mal had been given the same grace.

    Summary

    It was a beautiful service.

    Evie even arranged each bouquet herself, ensuring that both the reception hall and the chapel were overflowing with flowers, flooded by life.

    Afterall, death is a kind of rebirth, and her mother always spoke of making oneself anew and more beautiful than before. That was her mother’s duty to the world, to make it more beautiful. Evie was sure to include that in her tearful eulogy.

    Always the devoted daughter.

    Summary

    Mal thinks back to the night before they were taken to Auradon. Jay said it’d be the smart thing to do. He had seemed so sure of himself. So certain that staying on the Isle and hiding from their parents for the rest of their lives would be so much better than whatever Auradon had to offer. Mal should’ve listened when she had the chance.

    Summary

    Mal whips her head to look at Jay. He’s peering out the window, keeping watch, although it’s Mal’s rotation. Jay never lets any of them do guard duty alone, it’s a miracle he manages to get any amount of sleep at all. She glances over at their hideout’s ratty cot. Evie and Carlos are both asleep, cuddled up close beneath a moth-eaten blanket.

    Their hideout is untouched by the rest of the Isle. Within these walls, they’re free.

    Summary

    Statistically speaking, he was probably an accident. There’s limited birth control on the Isle and Cruella has always been a little crazy, but sometimes Carlos thinks she got pregnant on purpose. If only to have a servant underfoot. From the moment he could stand, Carlos had a rag in his hand and a chores list he had yet learned to read. His earliest memories are clumsily mopping up the floor and trying to dust shelves he couldn’t reach.

    Summary

    He remembers stealing them off a pirate by Ursula’s Fish and Chips, someone who was basically Goliath but just drunk enough to make the lift possible. As far as he could tell the cuffs were genuine leather, unscuffed and still supple. He remembers presenting them to his father. How Jafar didn’t take them away, but instead grabbed Jay’s arms and tightened the leather cuffs around his wrists. It felt like winning.

    Summary

    Evie pries her eyes open, slowly and one at a time, sitting before her is not a wolf but a boy. He’s small and drenched to the bone, like a kitten mewling in a storm. His face is shoved into the crook of his elbow and the moonlight casts a halo around his head. It’s ghostly and holy and Evie isn’t sure if it’s real.

    Summary

    “Did you know there were this many stars.” Mal doesn’t wait for him to answer, it wasn't really a question anyway. For as long as Jay has known Mal, she has never asked a question. Mal demands. Mal orders. Mal is a punch first, ask questions never kind of girl and Jay loves her for it. “I never realized how much the barrier was hiding.”

    Jay finds Mal lying on the roof of the boy’s dormitory. It’s located closer to the tourney field and faces away from the ocean, away from the rest of Auradon and the view of the Isle. A little less out in the open, a little more like home.

    Summary

    “Where else.”

    Her words are barely above a whisper. Mal doesn’t look him in the eye and Jay is grateful. It would be too soft otherwise, too close to good or nice for either of their liking.

    Summary

    It’s not hiding. Hiding would imply fear and fear would imply weakness and weakness is a dangerous thing. It’s just… regrouping.
