I was trying to figure out why Callum specifically holding onto the potion and waiting until Claudia saw it and asked for it back before he emptied it out reminded me of a typical Disney villain vibe actually and then it hit me

Like okay sure, you're fighting your enemy, but then he also waited until she saw him for sure, she said something about it, and then he opened it?? Why??? 😭

(If you don't know who the cat is: 1. You're missing out, and 2. It's Yzma, the main villain/antagonist in the Emperor's New Groove, and she has the potion the main character needs to go back to being a human)

Ironically it's a reverse situation not only because one is a protagonist and the other is an antagonist, but one has a potion that changes the other person's body to be less human-like, while the other has a potion that changes the other person's body back to being human.

Both potions help the person who would use them, though. For survival, or for going back to a normal life. (And Claudia's also trying to go "back to normal" in the sense that her goal is to keep her dad alive.)

Anyway this post wasn't supposed to be that serious, but it just baffles me

#tdp #the dragon prince #I'm not saying he's a villain because they're obv not making him be a villain #but the taunting someone with something valuable to them before destroying it in front of them is #hmm #usually not a good thing #I don't think Yzma destroyed it but she was going to drink it herself? or almost dropped it for sure #I haven't seen that movie in ages lmao #anyway regardless of tropes or comparisons I don't understand Callum's logic here #also yes Claudia taunts Rayla in a similar way in S4 but then she specifically does NOT destroy the item #she makes it look like she's destroying the decoy #then when Rayla finds out it was a trick she leaves #with the coins-- still not in the hands Rayla wants them in #but they're undamaged!#in this case Claudia is severely injured #and I have more theories on the potion thing contributing to that but #talking in the tags too much now lmao #this is all beside the point #also yes I'm reposting posts from Twitter onto here lmao #my posts
