Belley

Belley is the het ship between Belle and James P. Sullivan from the Beauty and the Beast and Monsters, Inc. fandoms.

Canon
Due to both Belle and Sulley coming from two separate Disney/Pixar series, they have never met in canon. Part from official Disney crossover games that do have their paths cross with one another or get them placed in the same team, by the player's choice. Like Disney SpeedStorm, that has Belle sitting very close to Sulley in one of its posters.

Similar to how Belle found herself falling for a big ferry monster-like beast with horns on his head when she entered his world, Sulley had found himself becoming attached to the female human child that stumbled into his. Even though both Sulley and Belle started off being uneased of Beast and Boo when they first came into their lives, they soon found themselves becoming very close to them. Resulting in the two wanting to protect and help them while they were in their care. The two have also been shown to be good with children and have good hearts, that have them do what is right despite the dangers. Sulley has some Beast-like traits that would remind Belle of her Disney Prince, while he was in his cursed form.

Disney Mirrorverse
Sulley and Belle were the main focused characters in game's official announce trailer, that has Mirror Sulley coming to Mirror Belle's aid when she was being swarmed by Fractures, saving her life and then have the two teaming up to fight the rest of them before Mirror Maleficent arrives. The app game also has the two interact with one another during some of the discussions between characters, before starting the next battle. In the third character Mirror Sulley always on guard and ended up calling false alarms, until Belle helps him to understand that while she is thankful for him watching her and the other guardians' backs, he doesn't have to cry wolf every time he believes that they might get sneaked attack upon.

Fanon
Belley is a rare crossover pairing between the two, even though Sulley has some Beast-like features with his large ferry body and the horns on his head. Which got people to joke about Belle having a type and the fact that she fell in love with Prince Adam as Beast. Making the idea of shipping her with Sulley not so out there, while Sulley's strong bond with Boo indicates that he may not mind the idea of him befriending or falling in-love with an adult human woman. There have also been times when Sulley has been portrayed as the Beast for Beauty and the Beast AU's.

One of the ship's biggest supporters, Twisting-Echo on both DeviantArt and Tumblr, focuses on Belle's comfy clothes counterpart from Ralph Breakers the Internet and Sulley's young teen self from Monster University. So they could have the two as study buddies, as Belle is the kind of person who would help someone with their studies. Similar to how she helped Beast to learn how to read again. Twisting-Echo releaved under their first Belle x Sulley manip that they got inspired to ship them after watching the announce trailer for Disney Mirrorverse. As did a few other people, and Belle and Sulley being placed in the same Disney SpeedStorm poster and trailer got them to think that Disney might be hinting at the idea as well. Since Disney crossover games and such allows people to pair their favourite crossover couples and duos together.

Those who don't want Belle to trade one beast for another, however, prefer to have her and Sulley as friends. From wanting to ship him with another monster rather than a human.
