"No, we did it!"

Glassheartober 03 (Flowers) & 04 (Holding hands)

This one's suuuper late because my PC died mid-drawing and also I got a little carried away with it... It's inspired by that moment Red takes Chloe's hand but their hands don't appear on camera at all (release the footage. I'm in the walls /j).

The flowers are forget-me-nots for Chloe, roses (clearly) for Red and wisterias in the background for both — the flowers that are behind them when they come back to the present!

Fun fact: Forget-me-nots are my favorite flowers :) that's basically the only reason I gave them to Chloe lol, but I think it suits her.

Days 1 and 2

Chloe: Red kissed me!

Evie: *gasp* No!

Dizzy: *squeals* Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!

Chloe: It was unbelievable

Dizzy: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god

Evie: Okay, okay, we want to hear everything. Dizzy, get the wine and unplug the phone. Does this end well or do we need tissues?

Chloe: oh it ended veeeery well

Dizzy:*Rushing over with the wine glasses* Do not start without me! Do not start without me!

Evie: Alright, let's hear about the kiss. Was it like a soft brush against your lips or was it like a, y'know, "I got to have you now" kind of thing?

Chloe: Well, at first it was really intense, y'know, and then.... Oh god, and then we just sort of sunk into it...

Evie and Dizzy: *Squealing* Awwwwwww!

(Meanwhile with Red)

Red: And, uh, and then I kissed her

Celia: Tongue?

Red: Yeah

Mal: Nice

Dumb little stop motion I did

i was watching an interview w kathryn hahn about agatha all along and she laughed like this and i- 🫣😮‍💨

my headcanon is that agatha used to smile like this a lot after she met rio, but doesn’t much anymore bc rio is the only one who could ever pull it out of her :’)

Today just feels like a day for firsts so this is for them.

Chloe was sitting on her bed doing schoolwork when Red came, more like barreled, in. She had thought to greet her roommate or say anything really, but all the words got caught in her throat as soon as she looked up and saw the look on her face. There was this intensity to her eyes that would have been frightening if it wasn’t for the fact she was also smiling. Though their eyes met for only a second before she beelined it towards Chloe. Taking the Charming completely by surprise as all she could get out was a “Red, what-“ and then she couldn’t speak anymore. Suddenly her lips were too busy with something soft and tender and…oh.

Funny, she originally thought of herself as more resistant to give in but the minute she felt those lips she was done for. Her body gave a quiet sigh as it went limp, the only thing holding her up was Red who had wrapped her arms around her the moment she sat upon the edge of the bed. Pulling her closer and closer to the point Chloe felt like she would break, but also that it wasn’t close enough.

Chloe has heard and read about first kisses. None of that had prepared her for this. Where first kisses are described as slow, soft, and sweet. Red is quick, intense, and yet still somehow so sweet. While her movements may seem erratic Chloe could tell she was being rather mindful, especially with her teeth. At one point Red even bit her bottom lip, though only enough to tease not to hurt. Her hands, which travel up and down her back now, feel more soothing rather than needing.

How is it possible that Red is kissing her senseless, yet reassuring her that she isn’t losing her senses all at the same time.

It’s so Red. So very very Red. Just like this first kiss.

This perfect first-

…Wait.

After what felt like a lifetime, but was really only moments, Chloe had found the strength to place her hands upon Red’s arms and slowly push her away. Breaking the intensity but not the kiss, not completely anyway. Red’s lips chased hers, though she wasn’t the only one to blame.

“Wait, wait.” Oh good, she hadn’t completely lost her voice. She had been worried about that for a minute. Before she could say anymore, however, Red took her breath away once more for a completely different reason. Something was being held before her that she swears wasn’t there a second ago, something circular that looks oddly enough like a-

“What, Red?!”

“No this isn’t me proposing, not yet at least, this is me saying I don’t mind the thought of marrying you either. Someday.”

All Chloe could do was stare at Red, because really what is she suppose to say to that? Was she suppose to reach out and take the ring? Which was silver and plain looking, but that’s not what mattered. Chloe wouldn’t have cared if it was plastic, what she cares about is the person offering it to her and saying they’re fine with her.

“I talked to Principal Uma and she helped me realize a few things. Number one being, Chloe, if I ever get to the point where I do marry you. It’ll be because I chose to, and how could I regret choosing the first person who believed I was more than what I seemed?”

Chloe stared at the ring then up into Red’s intense yet genuine gaze. “But…I also told you that you weren’t more than what you seemed when we met.”

The answer came after a spot of laughter. “I told you the same thing too, I called you a privileged little princess.”

“I am-was a privileged little princess.” Chloe could admit that now. Red on the other hand was never evil, not the way her mom is…or well was?

“You sure you’re not still are?” She raises a perfectly constructed brow as she teases Chloe. Prompting said girl to shove her off the bed, ring still in hand. “Hey, at least accept this first before you kick me off.”

“Nope, keep teasing me and I might never.”

Red feigns a rather audible gasp. “You wouldn’t!”

Chloe looks down at the pouting child before relenting with a sigh. “You’re right, I wouldn’t, I love you too much to do that.”

There it was, Chloe said it. It was the first time she told Red that she loved her. Six months after you start dating, even if you hadn’t had your first kiss yet, was enough time right? She sure hoped so, except Red isn’t responding nor can she read the expression on her face.

Oh fairy godmother, this was a mistake wasn’t it?

It was a mistake. It was a mistake.

“It was-“

She couldn’t even finish as a pair of lips had defended upon her once more. Though this kiss was a lot different from the first. It was much more like the ones she’s read and heard about. It’s so very soft, slow, and sweet. It’s fireworks and fairy song and everything she’s ever imagined. Red’s arms are sitting on her shoulders this time so Chloe places hers around the other girl’s waist. Something small falls onto one of the sheets of paper scattered around her bed, but she’s too focused on Red to care about what it is.

She takes this to mean a good thing, even if Red hadn’t said it back. The fact that she’s kissing Chloe like this must be a good sign.

That thought gets reinforced when Red pulls away to rest her forehead against Chloe’s. “I’m not very good at the whole feeling thing so I didn’t know how else to respond. Just, know that it wouldn’t feel enough to say that I like you.”

Chloe’s smile in response is so radiant she’s pretty sure she should have gotten the name Charming for that alone. Red herself could barely look at it, but she couldn’t look away either.

Except suddenly that radiant smile turned into an amused frown. “Did you say you went to Principal Uma for advice?”

“Yes…look, I had to go to someone and Maddox is a whole kingdom away.”

“So you went to the Principal? Shouldn’t that be something I would do?”

“What can I say, maybe you’re rubbing off on me.”

“Or maybe you respect certain authority more than you like to let on.”

“Chloe Charming, you take that right back this instant.”

“Or else what?” At this point Chloe unconsciously starts rubbing Red’s back through the fabric of her riot jacket. Red’s response is to rub their noses together.

“Or else I’ll stop hanging out with you.”

“Hanging out? Is that what we’ve been doing?”

“Have we not, that’s what people do isn’t it?”

“Red, you really do need more friends.”

Red gently bites Chloe’s left ear causing Chloe to give out a soft yelp. “First of all, rude. Second, why would I need more friends when I have you?”

“That’s exactly what someone who needs more friends would say. Wait, don’t you dare bite the other one!”

Too late, she bit the other one too.

Merry UnBirthday to You.

My Dearest Daughter,

I am sending you this letter for it has been too long since I saw you last. Yes, I know you'll groan out how it's only been two months, but time moves rather quickly for an old Queen. Literally, I had to run just to keep up with him, perhaps I should stop going to his castle and have him come to mine if it's really so important. He has been going on and on about something rather odd concerning cupcakes and paradoxes lately, but I digress. The matters of Time are not for the concerns of youth.

What is of concern however is your birthday coming up next week. Oh, I've just been so excited I already had the frog and fish butlers start planning it despite not knowing if you'll even be able to attend. I do hope you can and will, you can even bring that little friend with you, the one you fancy so much. Chloe Charming. You know, Ella really knew what she was doing when she raised that girl, lives up to her name in every way. Unlike Charming himself, no matter what Ella claims he was all face, personality speaking he was a mess. I was definitely the better choice.

Ahem, I probably shouldn't have said that. Wait, oh quill, please don't write that either. Drat, I really should get into the habit of writing my own letters instead of dictating them out to stationary. You know how feathers are, no mind for things that really should be omitted. As straightforward and as honest as an ostrich. Please do not show this letter to Chloe, I would hate for her to know what I think of her father. He really was good to Ella.

Anyway, I'd love to hear back from you soon, with confirmation that you and the young Charming will indeed be capable of attending. Oh, it's going to be so much fun, and don't worry. I'll have something special planned for the two of you. You can always count on your mum.

With warm regards,

Bridget of Hearts

The proudest mum in the world to have you as a daught-

Wait, no no no you don't have to write that last par

Long after they finished reading it Red and Chloe, whose head was on her shoulder, could only stare at the letter in Red's hands. It was certainly a letter to say the least. Though what had both of them glued to its contents were vastly different things. For Chloe, it was the confirmation of seeing that Bridget did indeed once have a crush on her mother (perhaps still did) and harbored a mini grudge on her father for being the one she chose instead. Couldn't blame the Queen of Hearts for that though, her mother was a catch and deserved only the best. Even if her younger self was a little difficult to be around sometimes.

For Red it was learning the fact that she has a birthday now. Something she never had before since her mother from her original timeline outlawed them long before she was born. Though the letter didn't specify the day apparently it's in October, and also she's getting a party.

A party just to celebrate her existence. Something other children in other places got but she could only ever dream to have.

...

"Wow, I didn't know your birthday was so soon."

"I didn't either." There wasn't really much else to say but the truth, though if Chloe understood the nuance she didn't bring attention to it. "Should we ask Principal Uma for permission to leave?"

Red nods then shakes her head, finally folding up the letter but still holding onto it. "I don't know."

Which is fair so Chloe gives an understanding hum in response. "We'll have to find some way to figure out what day it is first, so you can think about it in the meantime. Just so that you know it's whatever you decide, Red, no one is going to make you."

Red wants to say she knows but "She's already planning it, Chloe, how am I supposed to say no."

"Of course she is, she's excited and she's missing you. But, I also know that the Bridget I remember would never hold it against you if you decided you couldn't show. She loves you too much."

Red wants that sentiment to mean something she really does, but the Bridget she remembers also managed to turn into the one they left behind.

"I'll give it some thought."

"Great, oh and Red."

"Yes, Chloe?"

Chloe takes one of Red's hands and brings to back of it up to her lips. "Happy Birthday, my princess."

This did indeed manage to bring a hint of a smile back to Red's face, just as Chloe had hoped for.

"In Wonderland it's Happy UnBirthday if it's not the right day. I really do have to find out what the right day is, so that you can do this again on the correct one."

"I'll do it every day for the rest of our lives if that's what it takes."

Clocks, that was so cheesy how was Red not supposed to shove her away.

The Magic in Her Hands

Chloe sat cross-legged on the floor of Red’s room, the air warm and filled with soft lamplight. Red rummaged through her drawer until she pulled out a deck of cards. They shimmered faintly in her hands, each card marked with curious symbols and vibrant colors.

“These belonged to my mom,” Red explained, holding the deck up for Chloe to see. “She gave them to me a few weeks ago. She taught me a few tricks, you know, Wonderland-style.”

Chloe leaned in closer, her eyes wide with interest. “Wonderland magic? I didn’t know you could do card tricks!”

Red chuckled softly. “There’s a lot you don’t know about Wonderland.”

With a flick of her wrist, Red shuffled the cards in the air, making them hover between her fingers as if they had a mind of their own. The cards floated, spinning lazily in mid-air before snapping back into a perfect stack in her hand. Chloe gasped, leaning forward even more.

“How—how did you do that?” Chloe’s voice was filled with awe.

“Just a little Wonderland magic,” Red said with a playful smile, selecting a card and showing it to Chloe. “Pick one.”

Chloe reached out and selected a card, but as soon as her fingers touched it, the card changed colors—bright blue, then gold, then red—before settling into a warm glow. “Whoa,” she whispered, staring at the glowing card. “Is this… real magic?”

Red winked. “Of course it is. Wonderland’s full of surprises.”

With another flick, the card vanished from Chloe’s hand, appearing a second later behind her ear. Red grinned, enjoying the way Chloe’s face lit up with amazement. “That’s just the beginning.”

Red shuffled the deck again, this time making the cards swirl around them both, creating a cascade of colors and sparks in the air. Chloe’s eyes sparkled in the light, captivated by the display.

“I didn’t know you could do all this,” Chloe murmured, still mesmerized. “You’re amazing.”

Red’s smile softened. “I’ve never really shown anyone before. Not like this.”

Chloe looked up at her, a warmth settling between them that had nothing to do with magic. “I’m glad you showed me.”

Red’s heart raced for a moment. “Only for you,” she said softly, letting the cards fall gently into her hand, the magic fading as the last spark dimmed.

Chloe reached out, brushing Red’s hand. “I think Wonderland magic suits you.”

Red laughed lightly, a blush creeping onto her cheeks. “Well, there’s a lot more where that came from, if you want to see.”

“I’d love that,” Chloe said, her smile bright and sincere. And in that moment, Red thought, showing Chloe the magic of Wonderland might just be her new favorite thing.

(Playing Twister)

Chad: Chloe, right hand yellow

Chloe: *ends up on top of Red*

Red: You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?

Chad: I stopped spinning like 15 turns ago. Honestly I am surprised you didn't notice sooner

Okay so allow me to explain my unbridled hatred for King Beast

For starters it is said that the barrier along with Auradon was formed 20 years before the first movie, then add 2 because their 18 in the 3rd movie, and then another 6 I believe for rise of red (Don't quote me on that this is just an approximations) that leaves you with 28 years, Red and Chloe travel back in time 30 years which leaves them to meet there moms at age 16.

That leaves everything that happened to happen when they were 18 and I'm pretty sure it's assumed that Beast is in fact older than them by a few years. My educated guess is that he was about 21-24 years old based on what I remember from the original movie. Now understand that would this 24 year old forced an 18 year old Fay to trap every villain and their kid on a purgatory (most of whom she grew up with may I remind you) And if you really want to go there how many times can you think of the line "We used to be friends" appeared in a dcom because I can name a lot so there's a very real chance she used to be friends with a lot of them.

Just something about forcing a barely adult to lock away all of her childhood friends seems wrong to me but hey maybe I'm crazy. Now secondly BRIDGET poor sweet Bridget was going to war at 18 and no really think about that. She was ostracized for two years after castlecoming assuming that she could even make it to graduation between all the bullying and having no friends. Because yes she lost her only friend so she's been living in isolation for 2 years. And her mom is apparently gone. (I know this fandom has their own opinions but good or bad she was still her mother. ) Because at this point she is queen which means that her mother either stepped down or died and I really don't think Wonderland monarchs believe in stepping down. Either way she’s leading completely alone at this point and all she has is this country and now Beast wants to take that too!

The only thing left that's hers, her home, her safe place. The place where Bridget grew up, not the Queen of Hearts. And he just expected her to hand it over! Like he was entitled to her home, her kingdom. Just this random white man decided he should own this land because he wants it, and that sounds too familiar so ofcourse Bridget fights. 18 years old fighting for the right to her own home by herself and you expect that not to break her? It's no wonder she acts as if kindness is weakness people have been taking advantage of hers all her life. She's such a protective person but it manifest in the worse ways. In her mind She's protecting her people, her daughter from getting hurt by hurting her first and that's always my thought process for her. Not an excuse but an explanation.

Teaser for Chapter 10 (omg that's crazy) of OAPOD (Evil!Red AU)!!!

Bridget closed the trunk and threw it next to the one Red and Chloe had filled earlier. “I’ll have to pick out the rest of the stuff from my shelves, but you’re welcome to sit and watch!”

“Sounds good to me,” Red murmured, dropping back onto the bed.

Chloe rolled her eyes at her, and Bridget let out a giggle.

“You’re so funny, Red!” Bridget said with a wide grin. It made Red’s stomach turn a little - her mother had told her she was a lot of things before, but never funny.

“Lazy is probably a better word,” Chloe hummed with a teasing smile. She joined Red on the bed, sitting opposite her.

Red glared at Chloe and let out a huff. “Lazy? Have we been on the same journey?”

Chloe smiled and shrugged her off playfully.

Bridget let out another laugh. “You two are so cute!” Bridget said, glancing back at the two of them with a bright smile.

Red and Chloe immediately looked away from each other, pink painting both of their cheeks.

This fic is nearing 60k words which is kinda crazy but I'm loving it! This chapter should (hopefully) be out this week!!

I mean,if anything, it's just giving me one more reason to ship jeckole, but like-

I'm still in shambles

And guess what?

if so it makes rio's actions even funnier and more desperate too. the literal second her ex-wife is back on the map after magically ghosting her for however many decades she goes and breaks down her front door

Who~

Asked the other out first: Chloe asked Red after her team encouraged her to just do it and get it over with cause the suspense was killing them.

Gives the other flowers: Mostly Chloe, she'll pass by a flower stall and not be able to resist buying a singular rose and she'll end up picking the color based on what she wants to say. Most of the time it'll be red for I love you. Sometimes it's yellow for you make me happy. And just every so often it will be blue for I'm sorry. Red never tells her but she loves the blue ones the most because they're Chloe's color, even though she only picks them when there is something she wants to apologize for.

Is the most spoiled: Red, whatever she wants is what she gets. Not because she demands to have it but because Chloe can't hear the words "Oh, this is actually really cute" without feeling that urge to purchase everything Red even looks at. But, she knows she shouldn't. She knows that everything is best enjoyed in moderation. Just a couple bags full here and there is fine.

Initiates hand holding: Red, even though she loves Chloe very much physical touch is still not very high on her list. Which is made more complicated when she finally realizes that she does indeed want to do things like that with Chloe it's just complex. Turns out her love for Chloe and her aversion to touch are separate things, but the fact that Chloe has been nothing but understanding about it has made it easier to want to bridge the gap between them.

Is the big spoon: Chloe, but this only came about after a long period of dating. It came as a huge surprise to her when Red asked to sleep in the same bed. She tried to insist that they didn't need to do so much, but Red insisted that she wanted to and that she was ready. So after Red had gotten into bed and found a comfortable spot Chloe got in behind her. Slowly, as if she was holding a precious treasure, she lifted her arm and placed it around the other girl, letting it rest atop a stiff hand that needed a minute or two before it could relax.

Though she couldn't see Red's face she heard a sound that was unmistakable, but instead of drawing attention to it, like she knew Red would hate, she intertwined their fingers together. Giving a gentle squeeze that spoke volumes of how much Chloe loved her and, after a short moment, Red returned the favor by lifting their intertwined hands and kissing each one of Chloe's knuckles.

It was so unexpected coming from Red that Chloe had to stifle a gasp. She didn't want anything ruining this intimate and perfect moment. Instead, when Red lowers their hands they both close their eyes and drift off peacefully into sleep. Safe and sound with their fairytale lying right next to them.

Chloe: When you said 'Magic in Bed', I wasn't expecting this... 
red : *pulls out card from deck* Now, was this your card? 
Chloe : Holy moly-

Small excerpt in which Chloe catches Red playing the piano:

When Chloe entered the small room, she gaped at the scene in front of her. The Princess of Hearts was at a piano, playing the gentlest love song she had ever heard. Red’s back was to the door and Tale as Old as Time echoed off the walls around them. For the first time ever, Chloe was able to see the princess’s royal upbringing. Her posture was straight, but not stiff. Her movements were graceful, not as guarded as they normally were. Her defensive mannerisms were nowhere to be found, and the bluenette found herself in awe not only because of the melody surrounding her, but also at the sight of Red fully relaxed, as her finger delicately danced across the keys.  

The moment ended too quickly for Chloe to catch. Red stiffened immediately after the last note, and whipped around to face her intruder. Chloe didn’t know how the princess became aware of her presence, but she wished she could go back to the moment before when Red’s golden eyes weren’t glaring at her.  

“Hi-” she tried to speak as Red stood, but the other girl cut her off with a harsh tone.  

“What are you doing here?” Her hands were balled into fists, and her shoulders were tense. Chloe found herself lifting her own in an attempt to deescalate the situation.  

“I was just looking for you,” despite her best efforts her voice shook. “You weren’t at our lockers.” 

Red paused to take in the sight of girl in front of her. Slowly, she released the tension in her shoulders, and softened her expression. Her hands came to rest at her sides, but something about her posture was still guarded.  

“You were running late. I got bored of waiting,” she said, glancing away from her roommate. Chloe let out her breath and nodded.  

“Sorry about that, I had some questions about Professor Rodger’s midterm.” Red’s gaze met hers again, brows furrowed with curiosity this time instead of anger.  

“We don’t start midterms for another three weeks,” her voice lifted with the indirect question. Chloe smiled at the way her head tilted to the side.

“I know, I just had an idea for my essay that I wanted to run by him.” 

“Whatever little miss perfect,” Red rolled her eyes but there was no malice in it. “Can we go back to our room now?”  

The bluenette laughed a little and followed her out of the practice room.
