just had a flashing thought that, if angelina jolie sees maleficent to be in love with diaval, then probably that time sam riley said she hadn't noticed diaval for two movies and she answered that maleficent "is just playing hard to get" she was being legit too
yeah it's a romcom
never forget that maleficent gave diaval the horse horns for no reason
anyway here's maleficent glancing in diaval's direction like "oh nice so even he is weirded out i guess it's truly fucked then"
something something she smiles at diaval the way she used to smile as a child
actually what was the point of conall dying. narratively.
thinking about the fact that in the book canon during the battle stefan and diaval fall from pretty much the same height but stefan falls as he's fighting maleficent and diaval falls to catch and save aurora
russian/caucasian maleficent mistress of evil au where they make diaval the tamada at aurora's wedding
okay, i'm asking for your headcanons: how do you think the faeries (other than maleficent; say, the pixies, the water faeries, dew faeries, all other creatures from the movies and the books) are born? do they reproduce the way dark fae or humans would, or is it some more magical energy thing, or are they just born out of nature they are in?
this is actually my favourite moment from the novelization
phillip is about to kiss aurora and diaval is gazing at maleficent?? phillip is about to kiss aurora and maleficent is thinking she'll suffer the future of diaval being right and smug about it if true love is what saves her? they're crazyyy they're obsessed with each other
had an aha moment and thought that, perhaps, when seeing a bird being beaten by a farmer, maleficent's first instinct was to turn the bird into something bigger and not to strike the farmer with magic because she'd just never done it before at that point so it never crossed her mind. up to that point, we've only ever seen her fight physically — with her wings — and she hasn't even tapped into her evil green magic until she heard that stefan had been crowned, but back at the field she had no wings to hit that man and she was too far away anyway, and since she's never thought of using magic for evil, she didn't.
maleficent movies as the onion
