I was thinking about the phenomenon of strong women being characterized as "not having a love interest" (and I was wondering if it's so we end up in a world where media never portrays strong women as lovable, but that's a discussion for another day). And one of the big pop culture moments that created this trend was Frozen. But you know what?

Frozen DOES have a leading woman who has both a love interest and a full story arc that doesn't revolve around him. ANNA. She's literally the hero of the movie, she saves Elsa's life, and also finds love! So why was the pop culture takeaway that strong women can never have love interests?

'Tis Better to Give - a Kristanna Christmas fic

Okay I need to write another three thousand words and I have to stop refreshing Tumblr, seriously. 

Meanwhile look I wrote a Christmassy fic! This is vaguely set in the Harbor AU, but you don’t have to know anything about the other stories to read it. 

‘Tis Better to Give

rated T

Kristanna, Modern AU (Harbor AU)

2007 words

Kristoff stared around miserably. The mall was packed with people, echoing with the noise of hundreds of people chattering, Christmas music blaring tinnily from every store, children screeching, the endless ding-ding-ding-a-ling of the tiny train bell as it circled around and around the track that surrounded ‘Santa’s Winter Palace’. It was like an assault on his ears, an eternal, hammering assault. And Anna was eating it up. He looked down at his girlfriend and sighed.

Her eyes were wide and sparkling as she took in everything, and she kept tugging on his hand to point out new things, for all the world as if she were five years old. ‘Look! There’s a Sugar Plum Fairy this year! Oh my gosh, look at the little princesses here to meet Santa! They’re so cute, I’m going to die. Do you smell that? Is that chocolate? Oooh let’s go look at the giant gingerbread house! It’s so beautiful, I want to eat it. I just want to climb over this barrier and eat it. Don’t you want to eat it?“

“Anna…no.”
