She wrenched the knife from Quasimodo’s hands and burst into a frantic laugh,—“Approach,” she said to the priest.
She held the blade high. The priest remained undecided.
She would certainly have struck him.
— Notre-Dame de Paris, II.IX.VI
Illustrated by Carlo Chiostri (Italian Edition, 1935)

Really miss it when female Disney characters got costume changes in their films :(
Don’t get me started in Wish, when Star sprinkled that stardust on Asha Cinderella style, I thought she would get a new dress to symbolize her new role as the fairy godmother.
But it only made her dress sparkly??? 💀
Are you fucking kidding me???

Quick drawing of my Hunchback au where Quasi was never taken from his mother. He gets to grow up in the court of miracles and be an older brother to Esmeralda. Clopin acts like an older brother to them and plays hide and seek a lot.

In case you forgot due to all this whining on Twitter and Tumblr about how “There aren’t enough women in movies!😭” and “Disney is misogynistic😭”, here’s a reminder that Disney has good female characters from the past that taught girls important lessons:
Belle teaches girls that loving to read does not make you an outcast, and that you should stand your ground but also showing compassion.
Ariel teaches girls to fight for their passions.
Megara teaches girls that a broken heart can be healed.
Jasmine teaches girls that femininity must be treated with respect, rather than as a trophy.
Mulan teaches girls that what they lack in muscles can be made up for with brains, and that women have the ability to things just as good as any man.
Snow White teaches girls to be kind to the people around them, and that nothing is free in this world.
Captain Amelia teaches girls that accepting help doesn't make you weak.
Cinderella teaches girls to stay strong through dark times and still be kind to others.
Rapunzel teaches girls to find their self-worth and reach for your dreams.
Esmeralda teaches girls to fight for what is right, and to not judge people by how they look.
Tiana teaches girls about hard work, dedication and independence.
This is why the past matters.
