Vigilante Esteban AU Aesthetic
After establishing himself as chancellor and earning enough of Shuriki’s trust to have breathing room, Esteban devises a plan to help the people of Avalor in ways he cannot while carrying out his duties as chancellor. The steps he’s made - as chancellor to help Avalor’s economy flourish and run interference between Shuriki and others - don’t feel like enough, but he also knows he can’t jeopardize his position as chancellor. An accidental stumble upon a secret passage in the library reminds him that Shuriki is unaware of the palace’s complete layout, and his plan takes form.
Esteban creates a disguise to preserve his identity and begins training in one of the secret rooms. He increases his skills in evasion, sword fighting, close combat, setting traps, and stealth. When he deems himself ready, he plots a jail break to release Shuriki’s political prisoners. The execution is seamless, and he ensures their safe passage out of Avalor. He returns to the palace in high spirits and quickly establishes the pretense of having fallen asleep in the library while reading. Shuriki rages about the masked man undermining her authority, and he feigns disbelief.
In not too long, Shuriki selects a special legion of royal guard to deal with the masked man, and the locals refer to him as “El Gato.” Esteban quickly realizes how careful he needs to be in order to cover up his double life, and the effort it will take to perform both roles. He vows to shoulder the weight of the responsibility until he’s either found out, or Shuriki’s overthrown. The guilt doesn’t vanish, but, with every person he helps, managing it becomes easier.
Guys look at this mans 😩💖
Said I'd draw him w/ fangs and I lived up to that promise~ (posted earlier on my Twitter~)
"Well, I didn't think I'd say this, but DAMN, STAN LOOKS HOT."
Give this man his cigar
Support on Kofi if you wanna see more
y’all just— thinking about how excited Stanley must have been to host the twins— Alex says he smokes cigars but he doesn’t smoke once in the show— has a beer gut but he only drinks sodas in front of the kids— doesn’t swear when they’re around which must have taken INCREDIBLE effort— Stanley Pines, known crook, buying pancake mix at the supermarket and many bottles of syrup— learning to cook basic healthy meals and burning so many of them before he gets it right— buying new sheets, new mattresses— avoiding bunk beds because it reminds him of Ford— looking at the attic room he made wondering “is this enough will they like me”— trying to act aloof at the bus stop so he doesn’t betray the fact that he was there hours early— watching them goof around and thinking of New Jersey beaches— then the first night they’re there, he watches them debate running away and only stay because Mabel shook a magic 8 ball. That must have kept him awake all night.
Idk if u are still doing two character prompts, but what about Cogsworth and Belle?
“Happy Father’s Day, Cogsworth.” She grins at him. Dirt is smudged across her cheek; she’s been trawling in the castle garden—pulling out weeds that could survive even the breaking of a curse—and holds cabbages in her hands like they are bouquets of flowers. Dust crumbles across his dignified brown front.
“I’m not sure why you would say so—I’m not a father for anything, nor ever hoped to be.” He tries to brush himself down, but the soil cakes his buttons. Belle’s attempts to help leave patchy brown stains on his gold braid.
“Really? Because I was digging through Adam’s old things yesterday, and I thought there might have been a trace or two there. Who was that correcting his history papers, and giving him far too easy marks on his bad grammar? Honestly, I never saw someone for getting so mixed between past and present tense.”
The old man is blushing. “I never saw the point of going hard on the boy.”
“And that antique top—who gave him that? It had an English watermark on it, I saw. And gold braid ties on all his plush animals, little bow ties, like I’ve only seen on one man.”
“The bow ties were NOT my idea!” He is all offended dignity. “Lumiere did all the tying. I only, er, supplied the cording…and corrected it afterward, when the fellow did it all slapdash. It made him happy…the prince loved that little stuffed lion, you know, the one we put two bows on; and he never minded just a small—just a small, you understand—just a small amount of imaginary balls…”
“So you CAN deserve to have a happy Father’s Day,” Belle says. She grins at his softened face. “I told Lumiere so. You did half the work, at least, or that’s what he said—”
“Half?! Only half?!” Cogsworth puffs. “But who laid out the tablecloths, eh? Who supplied the butter biscuits at every tea party of the boy’s? Did he say I only did half? Half, my aunt’s pajamas….I was by that boy day and night! I raised him as my own!”
“Ah,” says Belle, “I wondered. I thought, you know, you might never see yourself as a father.”
“I don’t, not quite.” He wonders when he took them cabbages from her, and when he started helping her carry them inside. (Oh, but who minds, anyway—the girl probably needed a hand.) “But you’ll forgive me for thinking I deserve SOME credit—oh, that Lumiere, the nerve of him.”
“I suppose he’ll never hear the end of it. Oh, by the way—Adam wants you; his grammar is all over again, and he could use you to look over his latest letter to the ambassador before he sends it off—”
“Of course, of course—never could find his way around a past tense,” says Cogsworth, and trundles off again, dust still down his front and gold buttons shining through soil. He still holds a cabbage. But it doesn’t really matter—the boy needs his help.
Belle smiles as she returns to her garden. Some things the curse can never break—and love and weeds are among them.
