What could go right for the boy everything goes wrong for?


 

Usually, Milo Murphy is well-prepared to deal with his family's... hereditary condition. Murphy's law may be a little troublesome, but really. Anything can be faced with a smile! 

Besides, normalcy would be boring. Who would want to be normal?

Well, after a little thought on a slightly gloomy day, Milo sort of wonders what it -would- be like if he was... like the other kids.

How would he live a life that wasn't constantly wreaked with adventure, hospital trips, and interrupted plans? Was that even possible? What would he do?

He had a few ideas, so he made a list.


Somehow, after a series of events that some might deem 'unlucky', Milo finds that Murphy's law is apparently subject to a few strange exceptions. Walking under a ladder backwards and breaking a mirror, or opening an umbrella indoors in front of a black cat, for instance, would usually be expected to cause some bad consequences.

But if there's one thing Milo knows, it's to expect the unexpected. 

And after all, what are exceptions for, if not to be exceptional?

"If I could pick anyone in the entire world, in the entire world, Will, I'd still choose you." *** William Nile has always felt a lack of control in his life. His head's clustered and the past likes to eat at his thoughts. Isolation is a synonym for safety and staying neutral is a key ingredient for survival. He's always felt more put together when he was a mess; always felt like the world was clearer in the dark. He can't help it, this is just how it's always been. Then comes along a new foster family who throws him for a loop. They're exactly who they say they are, exactly who they act to be. With that comes a goofy boy named Clement and his best friends, annoying twins who laugh loudly- -good luck telling Jude and Demi apart- -and a girl named Minnie who has a god complex. Will knew from the day he arrived that he needs to focus on acting the way his foster moms want, on getting good grades, at playing soccer well and making sure that for once, he doesn't mess up. He knows he doesn't want to lose these friends, knows he wants to feel wanted and needed and understood. Because here, there is more focus on his mental health than there is on if he's acting the 'right' way. Here, there is room for growth and change past a foster parent's ideal child. Here, there's no room for entertaining the idea of him with a pretty boy who has a witty smile and a loud laugh. On that last note, he has no idea what to do (and Will is someone who likes to plan ahead). *** A coming of age story.

Many people long for a bigger and better life, especially as a young child and occasionally even a blossoming teen. However, this rule does not seem to apply to the young, starry eyed Violet Asaki. She has everything she needs: somewhat loving parents, good food, a roof over her head; and of course her whole entire world, her best friend Varian. And these things are something that simply cannot be pitted against leaving everything you know and love behind just to pursue a dull adventure. Why would you? However, reality seems to believe otherwise; and with the sudden threatening presence of mysterious black rocks with apparent magical properties in her village, Violet's world is completely flipped upside down. With the King arrogantly ignoring the arising crisis; Varian becoming unrecognisable, as well as her battling her confusing arising feelings for her best friend, and Princess Rapunzel, who promised to fix all of this mess now suddenly out of the picture, Violet must take matters into her own hands when a crazed demon shows up completely out of nowhere, threatening to destroy everything and everyone that is dear to her for seemingly just for the fun of it. Yet arising from the chaos is a princess with amethyst hair and her loyal handmaiden; and they may be able to fix everything with a startling revelation that may change Violet's view on who she thought she was, forever......... *Note, I do not own the rights to any of the original characters from the show, they belong to Disney, however, all of the original characters and work are all my own, do not steal.
