#mature fairytales

[adarkrainbow]

It is so strange how, when it comes to French movies, Snow-White was adapted/re-adapted four different times... and each time it is about sex. No matter if they are live-action or animated, a retelling of the proper tale or its "sequel", serious or parodic, its always about sex.

"Blanche comme neige": Snow-White's story becomes a girl's sexual awakening into a femme fatale woman.

"Miroir mon amour": Snow-White brings her prince and his parents to her own parents to settle the wedding, and we get into some sort of perverse, psychanalytic, Freudian/Jungian/Bettelheim reading of the various relationships of the characters of the fairytale as a sexual tragedy.

"Elle voit des nains partout": A "fractured fairytale" comedy with Snow-White's tale as the loose plot connecting the various Monty Python-like gags... And quite a handful of sex jokes since in this version Snow-White is a lovable pansexual nymphomaniac.

"Blance-Neige la suite": An animated parody of Disney-like fairytales posing itself as a sequel to the story of Snow-White... and a sex comedy meant for a mature and warned audience.

That's... that's like some sort of thing with the French cinema. It is impossible to get a Snow-White adaptation, and not have it sexual in some way apparently.

Heck, our adaptation of DONKEY SKIN is less sexual than the Snow-White adaptations... IT IS BASICALLY VIRGINAL COMPARED TO THEM!

[Though funnily enough, out of all those movies, it is the most sexual one that has Snow-White being sexless. "Blanche-Neige la suite", which is the most openly sexual of all the four pieces, the most NSFW of the four movies... is also the only one where Snow-White is actually basically her Disney self through and through and not depicted as a sexual character in any way. In fact, while all the other movies go from the irreverent to the perverse reimagining of the character, "Blanche-Neige la suite", THE big sex fairytale comedy of screen in France, has the most... "decent", I will dare say, depiction of Snow-White, to the point she is the ONLY character in the movie that does not have sex or any sexual activity from the beginning to the end. Like... yeah, the most pleasant and pure and respectful depiction of Snow-White - well, Disney's Snow-White to be precise - in French cinema is... her appearance within a movie that is "Shrek, but what if it was an orgy?"]

so glad the hearth timeline is like… slightly more understandable than before. previously i had freminet down as being given to the hearth at about 5, arle killing the previous knave when he was about 8, and the twins being taken in a few months later at about 12 when he was still 8. for my au, that makes them about four years apart, which feels slightly large of an age gap but ultimately it works better than making them a year or two apart.

apparently, canonically arle was 16 when clervie died at 16, 17 when she killed the previous knave, and then spent an unknown amount of time in prison before becoming a harbinger and taking over as the director of the house of hearth.

freminet was taken in during the year between clervie’s death and crucabena’s death. the twins were taken in a few months after that.

if freminet was taken in at 5-6, the twins taken in around 9-10, that keeps the age gap between the trio as well as explains the ~10 year gap between this and canon. that would make freminet 15-16 and the twins 19-20, which fits them really well. i wish arlecchino was older, though; she definitely feels older than ~27.

#febficaday2 - Day 24 (AUs)

Author: flora_tyronelle Rating: Mature Word Count: 20,680 Type: Magic/Fairytale AU

Summary: The night was black and full and thick like syrup, begging to be lived in, ready to be drunk like a draught, down in one swallow...

A curse made in moonlight and an endless quest for love.

Comments: Part magical fairytale, part quest, and all-around soft love story. I feel like people might have skipped over this one because of the major character death tag, but - with a spoiler warning here - let me assure you that it’s part of a bring back black/resurrection type of storyline and there is a happy ending. It’s heartfelt and gorgeously written and deserving of so much more love and attention.

Maturing is realising the all fairytales and romantic relationships you looked up to and hoped for when you were younger are actually toxic and abusive as fuck

we are now officially off-hiatus!

it is March 18, 2024 in-game, and the Unseelie Queen is still reigning over the city. the crystal barrier that surrounds the city is still intact, and curfew is enforced by the sadistic Dullahan who rides through the streets between midnight and six in the morning.

tensions are high, but some have come to adjust to the new regime. others, however, are plotting a resistance, and a certain former fae courtier has enlisted the help of a enchantress to forge a weapon that will take down the Queen once and for all . . .

Handbook | Canons | Face Claims | Discord

In another world, at another time, Severus Snape overhears a prophecy that he shouldn’t have. His actions would lead the wizarding war through one more war. Lead a boy too young to face the threat of death and loss. Lead the innocent and the guilty through paths already chosen… already destined for them.

In this world, Severus Snape never overheard a prophecy, never whispered the half spoken words to the Dark Lord, never witnessed the destruction of a family, or died in the boathouse at Hogwarts. In this world, Voldemort is mortal. There are no prophecies, no horcruxes, no boy who lived. There is only him and a wand.

Voldemort still desires utmost control if wizarding Britain with plans to expand once the Ministry has fallen and he is successful in placing his own people in place. The Order of the Phoenix still gathers to combat Voldemort and his Death Eaters. The Ministry still condemns both groups, deeming one domestic terrorists and the other a vigilante group. It’s October 31, 1981 the wizarding world is on the brink of war.

Voldemort is not defeated by a toddler. No, he is betrayed. Not by the wizards and witches who follow him but by the magical beings aligned with him for the purpose of being seen, being heard. What better way to be heard than by ridding the wizarding world of one dark wizard? Why stop at one wizard?

Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix have far more to worry about than themselves. Werewolves, vampires, and other creatures rise from the shadows to make themselves known. A new faction is grown, honed to do what Voldemort couldn’t, to protect those the Order couldn’t, and to lead those the Ministry failed. Wizards and witches have to adapt or fight back.

All it takes is one spell. One spell to change it all. One spell to plunge the wizarding world into chaos. One spell to reveal secrets and truths hidden in time.

The question is: Whose side do you choose?

Chapter 7 is out now! ✨💫

Find me on Wattpad and Neobook.

See the synopsis below✨

Princess Rowena has spent her entire life forging her own path. The last thing she wants to do is be forced into a loveless marriage for the sake of the crown, and has successfully managed to thwart off several suitors in her efforts. When she is given the ultimatum of either marrying for a political alliance, or step down as heir to her throne, she makes the decision that at least as queen, she can still advocate and be the voice for her people and her kingdom. Whisked away into an unwanted destiny, tragedy quickly finds its way into her land as her world is turned upside down.

King Alistair swings his sword with vengeance as he seeks to conquer those who have successfully taken everyone he’s ever cared about from him. While his enemies proved unsuccessful in taking his crown, he has risen a kingdom from the spilled blood of both his people, and from those he has killed with his own hands in the process. In the wake of conquering one of his biggest enemies, he finds a princess just as ruthless as him, and who is willing to stop at nothing to save her people.

When their paths collide, they must navigate a treacherous journey of power, betrayal, and unexpected alliances. As the fate of their kingdoms hang in the balance, Rowena and Alistair must decide whether to follow their destiny predestined in the stars, or risk losing their hearts and everything they know with it.
