Johnny Depp as Claude Jay Taylor
Please, let me know if you want to know more about him, though keep in mind he is a work in progress. Though I will gladly keep you guys updated if you would like! And if anyone wants to be updated on this character via the tag list just tell me in the comments and I’ll put you on the tag list!
Tumblr media
“I didn’t do it!” “Then why are you laughing?” “Cause, whoever did it is a freaking genius!” 
He is determined, brave, and friendly.
Even though he is younger than all the guys he sometimes needs to parent them. Looks out for them when they aren’t looking out for themselves.
Lost his big sister when he was 12 years old and his dad followed the next year.
He wears his fathers ring around his neck and carries a picture his mom took of his father, sister, and him.
Though when he smiles brightly it makes the other boys smile just as bright.

--------------------
The Dragon Cannon went off. 
Which was weird, because Taylor (Tarzan’s son and their Dragoneer) wasn't anywhere near it. Nor was Herkie (Meg and Hercules's son), who was the reserve Dragoneer. In fact, none of the players were near the thing because the team was having a water and snack break. 
Coach Jenkins squinted at the Cannon. “Did someone set that off?”
“It shouldn't be on.” Genie—who, along with Li Shang Jr, was one of the assistant coaches—frowned. “Nobody's near it… unless Taylor forgot to turn it off.”
“I didn’t!” Taylor insisted. “I turned it off, I swear!”
“Did any of you go near it?” Lil’ Shang asked, crossing his arms—trying not to grin or laugh, even though he was sorely tempted. 
There was a chorus of no coach from the group..
Suddenly, a large cold gust of wind hit them—which was more than a little unusual considering that it was nearly 80°F out—and an eerie childish giggle rang out from around them. 
“ Nope.” Emir (Aladdin and Jasmine's younger son) dropped his stick and started to walk off the field with his brother, Aziz.
Miguel (Isabella Madrigal and Bubo Marquez's son) just looked amused. “Is some little kid playing a prank on us?”
Jay groaned and stood up. Cupping his hands over his mouth. “HOOK! KNOCK IT OFF!”
William Darling (Wendy and Edward's middle child) whirled around. “Hook? Hook who?”
The eerie giggle turned into a full on gleeful laugh—a laugh that sounded like it belonged to a child far too young to be anywhere near Auradon Prep.
“Yeah, I’m with Emir and Z. Fuck this shit, I’m out!” Tyrone (Naveen and Tiana's son) held up his hands in surrender, walking off the field after Emir and Aziz.
“I'm out too!” Brendan (Charlotte La Bouff and Lars Westergaard's son) yelped, quickly running after his god brother.
Carlos sighed. “Guys, don't worry. Hannah's harmless—”
“I SAID, HOOK WHOMST?!” William yelped, swearing he felt someone tap his shoulder.
Jay roller his eyes, using his stick to pock at the space behind William. “Back, Hook! Go bother Evie.”
Carlos, on the other hand, just decided to take pity on their teammates and coaches. “Hannah Hook. Captain Hook’s youngest daughter.” 
William paled. “Shit, shit, shit. NOT TODAY SATAN!”
“Dude calm down, she's seven.” Jay rolled his eyes. “She's just bored. She's not gonna hurt anyone.”
Coach Jenkins, who had been watching the whole encounter amusedly, now decided to step in. “Jay, Carlos. I appreciate your good humor, but you’re clearly scaring your teammates. Let’s turn the noises off, now.”
The boys just gave him blank looks—neither looking amused with the situation. Just bored and, dare he even say, annoyed. 
It hit him then that they weren't joking.
“Oh, so I was right. It is just some kid.” Miguel mused, completely unphased.
“So…more Hooks escaped the Isle, then?” Jenkins rubbed the bridge of his nose.
“Nope.” Jay said, popping the ‘p’ before plopping back down on the bench. 
“You guys aren't making any sense.” Herkie groaned, head in hands. 
“She's a ghost , Herkie. She's been with us in Auradon since we came here.” Carlos rolled his eyes, starting to get frustrated.
“Ghosts aren’t real.” Aiko (son of Tomiko) scowled.
“Tell that to my mama!” Tyrone yelled from beyond the field.
Suddenly, one of the bottles of water lifted into the air and was emptied on Aiko.  The laughter turning into full on cackling.
Jay swatted at the air where the bottle stood, causing it to be thrown at him. Along with the rest of it's contents. He glared at the spot where the ‘ghost’ was. “ Was that really necessary?” 
Aiko glared at Jay, whipping water from his eyes. “How did you do that, VK? Magic?”
“Jay doesn't have magic.” Carlos reminded, exasperated. 
All while Hannah kept laughing. 
The wind picking up. 
Coach Jenkins looked around, fully believing that the Hook child was hidden away in a tree somewhere. “Now, listen! I’m all for fun and games, but this prank has gone on far enough, young lady!”
The laughter stopped. 
And the eerie giggled turned into an eerie, small voice. “Sorry….”
William screamed, running off of the field while flailing his arms.
“Look at him go!” Miguel shielded his eyes from the sun with his hand.
Jenkins was about to ask the Fairy Godmother for a raise. “Can we go back to practice now, or are you all too scared of a second grader to play the damn game?”
The team all muttered except for Carlos and Jay who just said “finally!”
--------------------
Hannah wandered through the class rooms, staying invisible to the naked eye. 
Once again bored.
Eventually deciding to mess around in the chemistry lab. 
Juggling vials and giggling.
Evie walked in, wanting to be early for class, and groaned. “ Hannah! Don’t you have anything better to do?!”
Hannah jumped, nearly dropping the vials. And, instead of just talking directly to the princess, she decided to write ‘NO’ on the chalkboard. Just as other students and Mr. Deley walked in. 
Mr. Deley, who already had Evie on his shit list, saw the ‘no’ written on the chalkboard, and a red-faced Evie, and connected the two dots. “Miss. Evie. Care to explain this?”
Hannah giggled. 
Mr. Deley didn’t seem to hear the giggle, but Doug did. His face furrowed in confusion as he looked around.
Hannah lit up as she noticed him and appeared next to him. Beaming at him. “Are yous Evie’s boyfriend ?”
Doug shrieked, almost slamming into the person behind him. 
He wasn't the only kid to scream and jump at the sudden appearance of the little GLITCHING girl.
Poor Tyrone, who happened to be in that class, ran out of the room, screaming “The Other Side!!!!”
Hannah giggling, biting her thumb. “Don't worry! I don't have cooties or scurvy!”
Mr. Deley squinted at Hannah. Then his eyes went wide. “Great Scott…” He collapsed, smacking his face on the floor.
Hannah's laughter could be heard echoing throughout the school.
--------------------
Lonnie had developed somewhat of a night baking habit.
Ever since she caught the VKs making love spell cookies in the middle of the night, she’d realized how nice and quiet the kitchens were at night.
So she’d started sneaking in to make her cookies. Sue her.
….it also made her feel less homesick, too, if she was being honest.
She’d just finished a batch, and left them on the counter to cool off while she grabbed a glass of milk.
When she turned around, three of her chocolate chip-green tea cookies were gone. She's only been away from them for an actual minute, if even that!
“What the fuck.” She said aloud to the empty room.
A loud creepy giggle echoed around the room. 
“...ancestors?” She couldn’t help but ask. Though, why her ancestors would c hoose to show themselves while she was sneak baking cookies in the middle of the night, she didn’t know.
“What's an a-an-cest-er?”
“Gah!” Lonnie jumped, holding up her hands in a defensive position. “Who– what are you?”
“...Hannah.” The voice replied, sounding confused.
Lonnie cocked her head. “Hannah who? Why are you invisible?”
“Hannah Hook! And cause I’s dead! Who are you?”
“...I’m Li Lan-Lei. But you can call me Lonnie.” Was she actually talking to a ghost?
“That's a pretty name!” Hannah complimented, giggling—probably at whatever funny looking expression was currently on Lonnie's face. 
“Thanks?” Lonnie cleared her throat. “Uh, how did you, you know…die, anyway?” Wasn’t that what you were supposed to ask ghosts?
“Frollo!” The lights flickered at her raised voice. “Anyway how old are you?”
Lonnie blanched. Frollo, as in, Judge Claude Frollo, who terrorized Quincy, Emile, and Zephyr’s parents? “Um…I’m sixteen. How old are you?”
“I'm seven!”
“You died at seven?” Oh, joy. Lonnie was gonna cry in front of a ghost. “That’s so sad. I’m sorry.”
“It's okay! I saveded my friend and his sissy!”
“From Frollo?” She managed to compose herself enough to ask.
“Uh huh!” Hannah replied, sounding like she was chewing on something. Probably one of her missing cookies.
“Do you, uh…like the cookies?”
“Uh huh! I likes chocolate!”
“Me too!” Despite the fact that this whole situation was completely insane, Lonnie was starting to get along well with the ghost of Hannah Hook.
--------------------
“Help! Help!”
Doug heard the calls for help and went running towards the sound. “Hello? Who’s calling?!”
“Over here! Help!”
He kept running, following the oddly child-like voice.
“Here! Here!”
Doug rounded a corner, and saw Chad on the ground, writhing. 
“Oh, shit!” Dough cussed as he ran over. He felt around Chad’s clothes, looking for the epipen he always carried around. “Come on, come on, come on! Where is that damn thing?!”
“His backpack!”
Not bothering to look where the random ass child voice was coming from, Doug dove for Chad’s bag, and snagged the epipen. He uncapped it with his teeth, and jammed the end down into Chad’s thigh as hard as he possibly could.
Chad went lax, choking ever so slowly turning to wheezing and mild coughing. But thanks to his uncle, Doug knew that he needed to still get him to the nurse and call an ambulance.
He dialed Doc’s son quick, making sure that Chad’s head didn’t loll too much. “Raph, it’s me! Medical emergency in the south side of the school! Get the nurse and call A113, asap!” 
He tapped Chad’s cheek. “Dude, what did you eat?!”
“He ate that thingy on the table!”
Now that Chad was out of immediate danger and help was on the way, Doug looked around for the source of the child voice. But found no one and nothing.“Who said that?!”
“I did!” The voice said, beside him this time—right as he was poked with something. A crinkle of a wrapper could be heard. 
Doug jumped back. “Wait–are you that ghost from the chemistry lab?”
“...maybe?”
“What do you mean maybe?!” 
“If I'm in trouble, then no. If I'm not, yes. Is he dead?”
“No, he’s not dead!” He sputtered. “And—how are you a ghost?!”
“Frollo. Also he ates this!” The ghost poked him with—a candy bar?
“Wha–?” Doug took the candy bar and skimmed the ingredients. “Dude!” He looked at Chad, who wasn’t super conscious. “The first ingredient in this thing is honey!”
Which, along with feathers, Chad was extremely allergic to. 
The blonde just squinted at him, trying and failing to say something but being unable to do to the swelling of his lips and his inability to form/get the words out at the moment. 
--------------------
Ben had been spelled. 
Ben had been spelled. 
Ben had been spelled. 
And now everyone knew, but no one , including BEN cared. 
No but Audrey, who'd been humiliated in front of two whole schools when her boyfriend had sung a love song to another girl . The girl who'd spelled him and wasn't getting any consequences and who was even telling jokes about it. 
Which was why she found herself sobbing her heart out in the girl’s locker room, while all her fellow cheerleaders were at practice. Her fellow cheerleaders who'd smiled and clapped and laughed while her boyfriend sung to another girl, like everyone else had.  
Something brushed against her cheek. 
Her eyes shot open. 
“H-hello?” Her voice was throaty, and she coughed a few times to clear her throat.
Something poked her cheek again. Something… soft. 
It was a crumpled (but thankfully clean ) tissue. Floating. In midair.
Audrey yelped, scrambling away from the floating object.
“I’m sorry. I didn't means to scares you.”
“Who–what—why–” Audrey stammered, freaked out, sure, but mostly embarrassed that she hadn’t been crying alone after all.
“Are you okay?”
“Are you–are you invisible?” She waved her hand around in the air, trying to find whoever was doing this. “This isn’t funny! You’ll–you’ll be in trouble for pranking me like this!”
“I'm not prankin’ you!” The lights flickered slightly. “I just… you soundeds so sads.”
The lights stopped flickering. “But… I'll go aways if ya wants me to.”
“Wait!” Audrey hadn’t the slightest idea why she called out to this…entity. Maybe it was because this was the first time in a while she didn’t feel so heart-breakenly alone . “Don’t go.”
“I'm sorry about what happened.”
She sniffed. “How do you even know what happened?”
“I heard people talkin’ about it. And I saw what happened.” The voice was becoming clearer—and the more it spoke, the more apparent it became that the voice was a child. “I'm sorry. If I'd known what Mal was gonna do I'd have stopped it. You didn't deserves that.”
At that, Audrey promptly burst into tears again. “Y-y-you’re the only person who’s said that to me! Everybody is on Mal’s s-side, even though she spelled Ben!”
“Do you want a hug? You look like you could use one.”
Audrey had no idea who this weird invisible child was, but honestly? She didn’t really care. “Yeah, sure.” She held out her arms kind of awkwardly, not being able to see her. But she could still feel it. 
--------------------
Merryweather was grading her students' papers, rather angrily. Her class, Life Skills Without Magic, was a required course for all magical pupils, which meant that she had a lot of…unwilling participants in her midst. The papers got worse and worse as she graded.
Screeeeeeeeeech. 
She lifted her head up sharply. Someone was writing on her chalkboard. She pushed her seat out, and angrily stomped out of her office. “WHO, I say, WHO IS IN THERE?!”
A piece of red chalk was floating by the chalkboard—which now read ‘Say sorry to Audrey, Maleficent Bertha Fae-Athanasiou II!’
Merryweather paused. Because, well…she agreed with the writing. Audrey was her niece, after all.
But still. Using magic? On the Life Skills Without Magic teacher? Too far.
Also, it was a little disturbing that whoever was doing this knew when exactly Mal would be having her class. 
“Very funny, you little miscreant!” She snapped. “I won’t be reporting this to Fairy Godmother, just because you’re friends with Audrey. But if you pull a stunt like this again, I won’t hesitate, witch!”
The chalk dropped to the floor and the sound of tiny feet running could be heard as the door to her classroom flung open and then shut again. 
What was a child doing at Auradon Prep and how did they know enough magic to turn themselves invisible?
--------------------
“Tinkerbell flew into a wall, 
Tinkerbell had a great fall!”
The fairy in question heard this nursery rhyme, coming from nowhere, and turned bright red in anger. “Who is that?! How dare you?!”
The singing stopped briefly as the singer took a break to giggle. Before it started up again. 
“Tinkerbell got caught in a trap, 
Tinkerbell is full of crap!”
“Stop that!” Tink demanded and stood up from her desk. “Who is doing that?! I will send you to the headmistress’s office and have you expelled!”
The singer snickered and a loud thud rang out across the room. As if someone was jumping up and down. 
“Tinkerbell can't sing,
Tinkerbell’s lost her wing’s!
Tinkerbell got hooked, 
Tinkerbell's cooked!”
In a rage, Tink stamped her foot. “Who’s spawn are you, huh?! I’ll make sure your parents know about this!”
The only response was a loud, almost never ending laugh.
--------------------
The pink curtains in the Acapella Music Classroom had been swapped with blue ones. 
Flora tried to breathe in through her nose. Calm, happy thoughts. “Merryweather…”
Before the fairy could say anything else, her pink chair turned blue. 
She whirled around. “Merryweather! I thought you were done with all this magic nonsense!”
The desks turned blue. 
“MERRYWEATHER!”
--------------------
Hannah went on to annoy every single staff member she came across. 
Mostly out of boredom, rather than malice. Mostly.
--------------------
The class’s eyes widened, staring at something behind her as Fauna droned on about Zarina—the subject of this Bad Fairies lesson. 
“What are you children looking at?” Fauna put her hands on her hips, not liking the idea that her students weren’t paying attention to her.
One of them pointed at the whiteboard, mouth agape. Looking white as a sheet. 
Fauna whirled around and screamed.
The word ‘bollocks’ was written on the white board in big, blocky, bubble letters. In uppercase. 
She spun to face her students. “Who did this?”
No one claimed responsibility.
Figures.
--------------------
Mrs. Potts was busy making macaroni salad for the students' lunches.
As head cook, she was insistent that the kids in her care got the four major food groups.
Buuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. 
Pop. 
At that noise, Mrs. Potts whirls around to look behind her.
Only to be met with a floating bag of pepperonis that was about knee length in the air. 
“What on earth!” Mrs. Potts shrieked and stepped back.
The bag jumped before falling to the ground and a child glitched into view before scurrying away. 
Mrs. Potts had seen her fair share of wild things. Hell, she’d spent ten years as a teapot. 
But random glitching children stealing her pepperoni? 
Yeah, that was too much.
She dropped her ladle and ran out of the kitchen, screaming.
--------------------
Hannah rifled through the cabinets of a classroom, looking for something to do. Glitching in and out of view as she struggled to stay visible.
“You looking for something, sweetheart?” A woman’s voice said, right next to her.
She spun around, trying not to look too guilty. “I ain't stealing.”
“I never said you were.” Honeymaren raised an eyebrow. “I just asked if you were looking for something.”
“... I don't know. I'm bored.”
“Well, I’d imagine so. Being a spirit must be awfully tiring.”
Hannah nodded. “There's nothing to do.” 
“My friend Gale, he’s a spirit too. He likes to make people fly.” Honeymaren made a whooshing motion with her hand.
The young spirit’s eyes lit up. “Like a fairy?” 
“Very similar.” A smile played on her lips. “If you want, after I’m done with my classes for today, I can teach you.”
Hannah danced in place, excitedly. “Yes please!”
Honeymaren couldn't help but be reminded of how her own daughter, Nora, was at that age. 
“Alright. Just…try and stay out of trouble until then.”
“Okay!”
--------------------
Homework was stupid.
Chad really didn’t understand the concept of it.
He already had to do work at school, why did he have to bring it home?!
The math problems were swimming around the page, and he’d only completed three…out of thirty.
Suddenly, a ball of paper hit him in the back of the head. 
He whirled around, looking for the culprit. 
There was no one there.
Wondering if he was actually going insane, he cautiously returned to his problems, now double unable to focus.
Only to find the equations to the homework. The ones he's forgotten ages ago.
He glanced up at the sky. “God?!”
A small giggle rang out. “No.”
“Gah!” Chad hit the deck, as if expecting an explosion. “Who are you?!” He asked from the floor.
“Hannah from tourney!”
He blinked. “...You’re the one who shot the canon and made William pee his pants?”
The ghost (?) giggled amused. “Sorry!”
“It’s okay…it was funny.” Chad wanted to smack himself. Why was he talking to a ghost-maybe-not-a-ghost?
“I hope the math helps! I don't likes math either.”
“Yeah. Math sucks.” Chad agreed. “How did you find these things?” He gestured to the previously missing equation notes.
“I don't have anything betters to do than to writes stuff down.” He could almost see her shrugging. 
“I guess that’s fair enough.” He hadn’t really considered what it would be like to be a ghost—and yes, he was acknowledging that she was a ghost now.
It must have been boring. 
And lonely.
--------------------
Belle couldn't find her book and her book club was set to start in ten minutes.
She’d looked everywhere she normally left her books, then started looking in places she would never leave them. Like the refrigerator.
Where she found one.
“What the–” Belle blinked. Was she going senile? There was no way she could have put this in there!
Ben peaked his head into the room. “Mom? Are you ready for book club?” 
The queen said nothing.
“Mom? Are you alright?”
--------------------
His statue was missing it's head.
Former King Beast had walked around campus for a solid hour trying to either find the head, or the culprit.
When all the VK’s had solid alibis, he checked with Ben's close friends but found they had alibis as well: Fay had been furious he'd accused Jane at all, Grumpy had been even angrier and had cursed him out for accusing Doug, Coach Jenkins had cleared Lonnie, and Chad and Audrey weren't even on campus. 
He did find it, eventually.
In the downstairs girl’s bathroom. Upside down. In a bidet. With the word ‘BITCH’ painted on it. 
After doing a good amount of angry yelling at nothing, Beast stormed out of the bathrooms, not bothering to touch the statue head. He’d get a janitor to clean it later.
But he would be getting to the bottom of whoever did this, and punish them severely.
Only when he passed his portrait did he realize that his statue wasn't the only thing vandalized.
A crude mustache and glasses were painted on his face, as well as the words ‘scurvy ridden, scabby sea bass’. The words were punctuated by a picture of a sea bass smacking his portrait self in the face.
Beast roared.
--------------------
The whole school was in chaos. 
FG and Ben were trying to get to the bottom of what was going on. 
But Mal already seemed to have an idea. “HANNAH ARTEMIS HOOK, KNOCK IT OFF!”
“Who’s Hannah Artemis Hook?” Ben asked his girlfriend, looking around cautiously.
Mal allowed some of her anger to drain out of her as she gave him a small smile. “Ghost kid from the isle. Don't worry about it. She won't actually hurt anybody.”
FG gave a condescending laugh. “Ghosts aren’t real. I’m sure this is just an intense prank. Remember how Calista Jane Hook was? I’m sure this is just the same.”
“That'd be news to me if she managed to fake her death that well at only seven.” Mal tried not to roll her eyes or come off as too sarcastic, simply for Ben's sake. “And not be exposed before now.”
Ben inhaled, regretting his life choices. “So let me get this straight: There’s the seven year old ghost of CJ Hook’s sister haunting Auradon?”
“No, she's just following us. She'll probably leave when she realizes we're safe enough here.” Mal waved him off. Before turning to look down the hall “But until then SHE NEEDS TO BEHAVE !”
The locker closest to Mal (coincidentally her own) slammed open. 
Ben jumped and let out a swear. FG jumped as well, but let out a “fiddlesticks!” instead of a normal swear.
“Is that her?” Ben asked, unsure of what exactly proper etiquette was for meeting a ghost.
“Yes. But again she won't hurt her…. Well, as long as you don't hurt any of the isle kids.”
FG huffed, but Ben looked at where he thought the ghost must be. “Uh, hi, Hannah! I’m King Ben. Welcome to Auradon!”
“Hi!” An echoey, eerie voice replied. 
Ben tried not to jump again. Was that disrespectful? “How’re you liking Auradon so far?”
“I likes da books. They ain't missin’ no pages!” The voice replied. “And nobody's died here yets!”
“Yaaaay?” Ben’s voice went flat. 
FG at least had the decency to look ashamed.
“Are yous Mally’s boyfriend?”
Mal hid her face in her hands, fully aware of how red that comment was going to make her.
He grinned widely. “Why, yes I am.” To prove his point, he kissed Mal on the cheek.
Hannah giggled loudly. “Oooo waits till her siblings find out!”
“Siblings?” Ben looked at his girlfriend in surprise. “I thought you just had the one. Treycor, right?”
“Ya! Treycor! But she has more!”
Mal nodded, embarrassed. “From our dad’s side…”
“Dad?” It suddenly occurred to him that he hadn’t heard much about the other parents of the VKs.
Hannah giggled. 
“Will you knock it off?” The purple haired teen snapped at the space where the little girl was supposedly standing. 
“Buuuuuuutttttrt Malllllllly I'm boooooooooooored! BORED, BORED, BORED!”
“You know, Carlos and Jay have video games in their room. You like video games?” Ben tried to placate her (and to get her to stop yelling.)
“...yes!”
“Maybe you can watch them play?” Ben was glad he was getting somewhere. “In fact, I can take you there now. I just have to ask you one question, if that’s okay?”
“...okay.”
Ben hesitated. He wasn’t sure how this would go. But there was a seven year old dead girl. He had to know. “Can I ask how you…became a ghost, Hannah?”
The lights flashed, all of the lockers flung open, and a water fountain turned on. “Judge Frollo!”
FG screamed, and used her clipboard as a shield against the chaos. “Claude Frollo turned you into a ghost?!”
Mal winced. 
Ben had wrapped his arms around Mal to shield her from the lockers, but after FG said that, he glared at the woman with all his might. “She means that Judge Claude Frollo killed her, Fairy Godmother.”
FG gasped. “Oh.”
“She uh… was trying to protect his last two living children.” Mal added, hesitant for once. “Her mom and Grandma didn't make it in time to help.”
One of the lights exploded as the lockers slammed shut—silence quickly filling the hallway, sans the trickling water of the fountain. 
“Oh my gods.” Ben whispered, breaking the silence.
“Can we play now?” Hannah cut in, ‘breathing’ heavily before the water fountain turned off. 
Ben was not in the mood for playing, but he forced a smile anyway. “You betcha.”
“Yay!”
The lights flickered once more before stopping. 
“Race you ta Jay-Jay and ‘los’s room!”

Summary: Every VK had the same complaints about the Isle — terrible parents, terrible resources, they’dnever broken the law, every day was a battle for survival, you get the idea.  But Lawson Henry had another complaint.  He was lonely.  He may have been a part of Mal’s crew in the loosest of terms, an insignificant ally whose father was only a henchman. But he was alone, forgotten.  He never expected that to change, until a letter came from Auradon.  Mal, Jay, Evie, and Carlos would be going to Auradon Prep, the children of the four most feared villains on the Isle — alongside Lawson Henry, son of a bumbling servant who failed his only job.
He’s sure that it’s a mistake.  He’s sure that he’ll get to Auradon and they’ll tell him that they got it wrong, that they wanted a real VK.  Someone smart, someone powerful, someone like Uma or Harry or Celia.  Instead he’s greeted by an overenthusiastic not-princess, whose own mother was once tricked into almost marrying his father.

Summary:  Maria Frollo hated her father.  It wasn’t an uncommon sentiment on the Isle, but it was still true.  She hated him.  More than she’d ever hated anyone.  Lucky for her, she met Queenie and Helena in the marketplace one day and found herself being taken under their wings.  She knows that she isn’t tough, not like they all, but if there’s one thing she learned from her father, it was how to rain hellfire down on her enemies.

Summary: First there was Mal, then there was Uma.  Mal had defected, turned good, abandoned the kids on the isle who desperately needed her help.  Uma’s martyr complex and desperation had long since outweighed her ability to come up with a real plan.  But someone needed to protect the children, needed to keep the major villains in line, needed to run the Isle with an iron first.  And that person is going to be Queenie, no matter the cost.  And if anyone objects to her revolution, well, off with their heads.

Series: Anti-Hero Series
Story: A Rose By Any Other Name; Kiss With A Fist; You Should See Me In A Crown
Parents: Gaston Legume
Face claim:  Zoey Deutch
Love Interest: Prince Ben; Harry Hook; eventual Ben & Harry
Summary: There were many reasons that Rosabelle Legume didn’t want to go to Auradon: the Beast might have her executed, she didn’t want to leave her big brother, her crew needed her, and she wasn’t ready to say goodbye to Harry or to whatever relationship they had.  But there was one very good reason for her to leave: it would get her away from Gaston.  So she packs her bags and goes to Auradon with Mal and her gang - fine, whatever, she’d help them get the wand and everything would be fine.  But she wasn’t expecting to need to get close to Prince Ben to do it, and now Ro has an even bigger choice to make: Ben or Harry, Auradon or the Isle, good or evil?
Tumblr media
Name: Roslyn “Marcie” Hood
Story: Civility
Parents: Robin Hood & Maid Marian
Face claim:  Zoe Colletti
Love Interest: TBD
Summary: Roslyn Hood never wanted to leave Sherwood Forest.  And why would she?  She loved her life there, it was all perfect.  She had her family and she had her freedom, what more could anyone want?  But unfortunately for her, not everyone was as happy about it as she was.  And just before her sixteenth birthday, in one of his last decrees as king, the Beast King made a proclamation.  In exchange for their freedom within the forest, the people of Sherwood Forest would have to send one child — Robin Hood’s own daughter — to Auradon Prep.
Forced out of her home and into a school where no one pretended to want her around, Roslyn had to adapt.  She started going by her middle name, Marcie.  She stopped running around barefoot.  She stopped climbing up to the roofs of the school.  She bided her time, waiting until she could leave.  But when Prince Ben brings over a new group of students, she finds that her time may have come sooner than expected.

Love Interest: Chad Charming
Summary: Sloane White had a plan.  Actually, Sloane White had several plans.  And backup plans, and backup plans for her backup plans.  She had plans for her relationship with Chad.  She had plans for the future of Bavaria, and for how she would hold title of both Queen and High Protector.  She had plans for her Aunt Evie, and for Ben’s dream of Isle reformation.  Sloane White had a plan for everything.  Except for Ben publicly proclaiming his love for one of the VKs.
Tumblr media
Name: Taryn Porter
Story: Strangers Like Me
Parents: Tarzan & Jane Porter
Face claim:  Kaylee Bryant
Love Interest: Jay
Summary: Let’s make one thing clear, no one wanted Taryn Porter at Auradon Prep.  Well, no one except for Ben, and no one was willing to go against the prince over bringing a civilian to their school.  Her dad grew up in a jungle, raised by apes and her mom was a scientist.  Taryn absolutely, most definitely, did not belong at Auradon Prep alongside children of princes and princesses.  Maybe that’s why, when Ben decides to bring four villain kids to the school, Taryn is the only person who’s genuinely excited about more outcasts joining the student body.
Tumblr media
Name: Topher Charming
Story: The Weight Of Living
Parents: Prince Charming & Cinderella
Face claim: Nicholas Galitzine
Love Interest: Evander Grimhilde
Summary: The problem with founding a kingdom when the ruling family has no children is, of course, figuring out the line of succession.  That wasn’t the first problem with the founding of Auradon, to be fair, but it was the first one that concerned His Majesty the king.  But, in a stroke of great fortune, a royal baby was born soon after.  Christopher Charming II, son of Ella and Kit Charming, prince of Gevaudan.  And, until such time as Adam and Belle have a child of their own, the heir to the United Kingdoms of Auradon.
Fortunately, Belle and Adam have a son the following year, and Topher is bumped down to being the spare.  But unlike the spares of old, there is no room for Topher to be anything less than perfect.  He’s the eldest royal child in Auradon, the blueprint upon which every other child’s future will be mapped.  A modern day Atlas, carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders, but a sacrifice that he made willingly so that no other royal child would have to.  Along with being the perfect prince himself, Topher took his responsibility as Ben’s right hand incredibly seriously.  Whether that be coaching him in all of the skills that a prince should have, or tutoring him on matters of policy and protocol, or helping him draft his first official decree as king.  Whatever it may take, Topher would do anything to protect and support Ben, to help him be the best king he could be without having to sacrifice his childhood.  When Ben brings five children from the Isle to Auradon, Topher volunteers himself to help them adapt to their new home.  But his determination to see Ben’s plan succeed is put to the test when he meets Evander Grimhilde, the unfairly attractive son of the Evil Queen.

Name: Violet Kingsleigh
Story: Lavender Haze
Parents: Alice & The Hatter
Face claim: Meg Donnelly
Love Interest: Cian Hearts
Summary: Violet Kingsleigh loved growing up in Wonderland, she really did.  She loved spending mornings in her aunt’s - the queen’s - gardens; she loved fighting lessons with her parents and reading with Absolem; she loved playing with the Tweedles and hide and seek with Chess; and, of course, she adored her dad’s infamous tea parties.  Yes, Violet loved everything about Wonderland.  Especially that it wasn’t in Auradon.  It was perfect.  And then the queen is cursed, and all of Wonderland knows that Auradon is to blame.  But they can’t declare war without proof, so suddenly their young princess is being sent to Auradon prep to investigate.  Violet knows her mission.  Violet is absolutely and entirely focused.  Violet is most definitely not prepared for the boy-king to have invited a group of teenagers from the Isle Of The Lost to start school on the same day as her.
Tumblr media
Name: Winnie Pan
Story: Where Dreams Are Born
Parents: Wendy Darling & Peter Pan
Face claim:  Haley Lu Richardson
Love Interest: Harry Hook
Summary: When magic was shut off from Auradon, Neverland was shut away, no one could come or go.  Unfortunately for Peter Pan, he was on the wrong side of that barrier.  Stuck in Auradon with a fully grown Wendy Darling, he had no choice but to grow up, and in fact the vanishing of the magic that had kept him young didn’t just make him age as normal, it pushed him into immediate adulthood.  And with adulthood came children.  A daughter, Winnie Pan.  Winnie was raised on Peter and Wendy’s stories about Neverland and she had long since fallen in love with it.  But it was inaccessible, she’d been told, she could never see it.  And as much as she hated it, she understood.  Until Prince Ben lets four villain children through their barrier into Auradon.  And Winnie has a realization: if one barrier can be taken down, so can the other.  And Winnie Pan will follow the second star to the right to the home she should have had, or she’ll die trying.

Parents: Melody
Face claim: Madelaine Petsch
Love interest: Harry Hook
Tumblr media
Name: Lawson Henry
Story: Impossible Dreams
Parents: Lawrence
Face claim: Milo Manheim
Love interest: Evie
Summary: Every VK had the same complaints about the Isle — terrible parents, terrible resources, they’d never broken the law, every day was a battle for survival, you get the idea. But Lawson Henry had another complaint. He was lonely. He may have been a part of Mal’s crew in the loosest of terms, an insignificant ally whose father was only a henchman. But he was alone, forgotten. He never expected that to change, until a letter came from Auradon. Mal, Jay, Evie, and Carlos would be going to Auradon Prep, the children of the four most feared villains on the Isle — alongside Lawson Henry, son of a bumbling servant who failed his only job.
He’s sure that it’s a mistake. He’s sure that he’ll get to Auradon and they’ll tell him that they got it wrong, that they wanted a real VK. Someone smart, someone powerful, someone like Uma or Harry or Celia. Instead he’s greeted by an overenthusiastic not-princess, whose own mother was one tricked into almost marrying his father.

Name: Ophelia
Story: To Be Or Not To Be
Parents: The Enchantress
Face claim:  Kaylee Bryant
Love Interest: Ben & Evie
Summary: Before Prince Ben’s proclamation, no one had ever left the Isle Of The Lost. No one, except for Ophelia. The daughter of the Enchantress, a being made of pure magic, she was everything that the Beast-King hated, the very danger that the Isle was meant to contain. But as the only child of the most powerful villain, she was a valuable bargaining chip for Auradon; a way to ensure that the villains never tried to escape.
And so Ophelia grew up in Auradon, always excluded for her parentage, never belonging and always knowing that the Beast-King could have her killed at any moment. Still, there was one silver lining to life as a hostage: Prince Ben of Auradon. Where everyone else looked at her and saw a future villain, Ben saw a girl in need of a friend. Growing up side by side in the castle, the two had always been inseparable, despite his parents’ strong objections.
But when Ben brings four more kids over from the Isle, Ophelia finds herself unsure of who she wants to be. The villain that Auradon expected her to be, or the hero that Ben believed she could be.
Tumblr media

Album & EP Recommendations
Album of the Week – TYRON by Slowthai
Since the release of his star-making debut album Nothing Great About Britain in 2019, it has been quite a rollercoaster couple of years for grime superstar Slowthai. From a well-earned Mercury Prize nomination to a career-threatening appearance at the 2020 NME Awards, the time since his big breakthrough has certainly produced both highs and lows for the young star. So here we are then at crunch time, the difficult second album – the moment where ‘Thai either presents himself as one the leading voices in the UK rap scene, or he fades into either mediocrity or obscurity. Thankfully, it is not the latter as his new album TYRON sees Slowthai deliver an album that surpasses even the high bar set by his phenomenal debut.
With the album’s title sharing his first name, you’d be right in thinking this is a more personal and reflective record from ‘Thai, especially when compared with his politically charged first outing. Although there are still moments where ‘Thai aims his microphone outwards squarely at the establishment, there is also plenty of introspective moments where he reflects on his family, his upbringing and the events that have shaped his last couple of years. In addition to this, there’s also a welcome myriad of witty, quintessentially British references throughout, with ‘Thai making nods to everything from Harry Potter to ChuckleVision in a bid to make the listener smile.
This contrast of humour, horror and personal reflection is one of the many reasons TYRON is such a fascinating listen, but there is plenty more on offer here. This is an extremely ambitious record too, with the tracklist split into a double album format - the first half bringing the energetic, harder cuts, and the second half the softer, more melodic moments. There’s also a host of heavyweight guest stars scattered across the tracklisting here, including Skepta, Denzel Curry, Dominic Fike, A$AP Rocky and James Blake, to name just a few.
However, the biggest takeaway from TYRON is just how much ‘Thai has matured as an artist, both in his musicality and his wordplay. The beats and production value are a step above his debut, and his bars are sharper than ever before. There are plenty of career-best moments here too, with aggressive opener 45 SMOKE and the ominous beat and defiant stance of DEAD standing out in the first half. In the second half, it is the one-two combo of push, the acoustic-driven collaboration with Deb Never, and heartfelt single nhs, that hit home the hardest.
All in all, TYRON is a brilliant sophomore effort, one that perfectly showcases Slowthai’s growing maturity as an artist. And although he offers a captivating glimpse into his softer side, he also shows that he’s not lost any of the tongue-in-cheek humour or provocative social commentary that made him such a star in the first place.
Who Am I? by Pale Waves
Also releasing their second album this week is Mancunian outfit, Pale Waves. Unlike Slowthai who had a breakout debut album, Pale Waves’ first record My Mind Makes Noises had a somewhat lukewarm reception. Although I personally enjoyed that album, there was definitely the sense that Pale Waves hadn’t really found their niche yet, with their blend of 80’s inspired synth-pop and indie rock drawing comparisons to The 1975 and some of their other peers with a similar sound. It seems that frontwoman Heather Baron-Gracie shared this sentiment too, as second album Who Am I? sees her and the band go on a journey of self-discovery and meaning, coming out the other side with some of their best songs to date.
This time around the synth-pop is nowhere to be found, replaced instead with the nostalgic flair of 00’s pop punk. Across the album’s 11 tracks, Baron-Gracie channels her inner Avril Lavigne to deliver an album that feels both warmly familiar but also new and refreshing. Similarly to the Slowthai record, the second album from Pale Waves is the sound of a band finding their feet and hitting their artistic maturity, with Who Am I? simply brimming from wall-to-wall with infectious pop punk anthems. From the heartbreak of opener Change, empowering gay anthem She’s My Religion, the upbeat earworm chorus of Easy to the piano-driven reflection of the title track, Pale Waves make it hard to find anything here to which you won’t want to dance around and sing along.
Ultimately, this album is just an awful lot of fun and it is great to see how Pale Waves are evolving and hitting their stride. With this record, Heather Baron-Gracie shows what a special songwriter she is, and in doing so gifts the world a new kind of guitar hero to which they can look for inspiration.
Super Monster by Claud
And finally, also recommended on the album front this week is the debut outing from singer-songwriter Claud. Significantly, this is the first record to be released on Phoebe Bridgers’ record label, Saddest Factory, and what a first release to deliver. A dreamy listen from start to finish, Super Monster sees Claud serve up her own unique brand of laidback, bedroom synth-pop, with standout tracks including Gold, In or In-between and That’s Mr. Bitch To You. An infectious and highly enjoyable listen that firmly sets Claud up as one to watch going forward.
Tracks of the Week
Love Story (Taylor’s Version) by Taylor Swift
Reimagining one of her early breakout hits, this new version of Love Story off her forthcoming Fearless re-release sees Taylor soften the guitar and add some strings, helping to breathe new life into a song that impressively still holds up 13 years later.
What It Feels Like by Jay-Z & Nipsey Hussle
Two bonafide legends, living icon Jay-Z and the late, great Nipsey Hussle, join forces for a new track from the Judas: The Black Messiah original soundtrack. Without a doubt one of the best hip-hop tracks of the year so far – a truly special collaboration that’s both cinematic and powerful.
