Summary
When a new continent was discovered on the other side of the dark forest that covered the entire northern border of Auradon, it was decided that the best way to establish peace would be via a political marriage of their heirs. To do this, a contingent of young Auradon royalty was sent to the new continent – Enchancia – to meet with the Enchancian heirs and potentially arrange political marriages.
Of course, Chad himself didn’t have to worry about such things. As an only child he was ineligible and had signed up for the trip at his grandfather’s insistence – at least, before the man had been arrested.
But Chad wasn’t one to waste an opportunity to see the world, so he tagged along with the contingent to keep Ben company, even if the poor guy was mostly stuck in meetings. If Chad happened to make a few friends along the way – well, he knew all the Enchancian heirs’ names, he just needed to avoid them. Five whole people – he could manage that. It would be fine.
Also known as – That time Chad explored new nations, made new friends, and learned to cook all the best food while making dozens of animal friends along the way. Ben definitely isn’t besotted by this. Definitely not.

Summary
Chad has had a crush on Doug ever since he’s met the guy, but when he fails to break through Doug’s oblivious nature, he abandons being Doug’s boyfriend in favor of being his friend-with-benefits. It’s a solid arrangement until the appearance of one Evelyn Hatzfeld and the rest of the VKs, who forces Chad to adapt his strategy. He can’t stop Doug’s infatuation with Evie, but he can take advantage of Evie’s infatuation with blond, blue-eyed princes. After all, it doesn’t have to be a love triangle if all parties are interested, right?
Also known as – That time Chad fake-dated his way into getting his love’s dream girl, which sounds entirely more complicated than it actually ended up being.

Summary
Perhaps Chad’s problem-solving methods tended to lean on the side of overdramatic, but there were some things in life that couldn’t be whisked away by the magic of a happily ever after. Sometimes things just went wrong, and Chad had always been the pragmatic sort. He could see the warning signs accumulating into something that couldn’t be managed, and he reacted appropriately.
Maybe, just maybe, resorting to time travel to erase your soon-to-be failure of a relationship wasn’t the most rational thing to do, but Chad was at the end of his rope. The plan was simple: return to the first day of the masquerade that had started it all and avoid his lovers, thus derailing the events that would lead to the culmination of his relationship. It was straightforward. It was ludicrous.
Somehow, he managed to mess it up anyway.
Also known as: That time Chad used time travel to end his relationship and was immediately derailed by the hurricane force of chaos that was one Gilbert LeGume. Because of course.

Summary
So maybe Audrey was cheating on Ben with Chad, but that was only because Chad knew what made her happy. Or at least, he did, but when dressing up pretty failed to cut it anymore, he took more drastic measures, using Fairy Godmother’s wand to completely change into a girl instead of just dressing up like one. Suddenly, Audrey’s more interested in sex with him than she’s ever been before, and when Ben walked in on them, instead of anger, he wanted to… join in?
Look, Chad didn’t know what was going on, but he wasn’t going to question things if he got to help Audrey. Throw in the new transfer students Ben had invited over, secret identities and a dash of longing, and sexualities were getting questioned left and right. Chad was pretty sure he was cool with it, though, even if he was a bit confused.
Also known as: That time Chad took gender fluidity to its most literal meaning, made new friends and made them reassess their sexualities while he reassessed his own. Also, there are sexy times.

Summary
Chad hadn’t been prepared for the trials of Wonderland, and he certainly wasn’t ready for the trials that awaited them at the beach house. Being encouraged to have sex with everyone would have been daunting without the involvement of magic, but now Chad had to overcome his shyness or else he’d be cursed forever. It would be a lot easier if he was even kind of charismatic. But he wasn’t, he was just Chad, with his baggage and his fears and his inability to be normal, and he was beginning to wonder when Mal would realize that wasn’t enough for her.
He could get through this. He had to get through this, he just wished that maybe it was easier.
Also known as: That time the others realized the extent of Chad’s issues because of yet another spell, which maybe led to cuddling and makeovers and lines getting blurred all around. It works out in the end, though.

Summary
“Why?” Audrey asked in a drawn-out higher pitch, like she couldn’t possibly see any of the many things that were wrong with what she had just suggested.
“I’d rather just wait for my parents to give up on their own.”
Audrey rolled her eyes, and this time she did move to face him. “Oh, come on, it’s not a bad idea!”
"Jay?" Chad repeated, hoping that hearing it from someone else would’ve made her come back to her senses and realise how absurd all of this was. “You want me to date Jay?!"
Or the one where Chad desperately wanted his parents to stop trying to set him up on dates with any princess they knew, and getting into a fake relationship with Jay to shock them somehow seemed to be the best option he had left. He didn't expect it to be quite as fun as it turned out to be. -
