Ongoing Fairy Tale Backstory

[the_fairest]

So we continued Prince (Not!)James's story between The Pilot and his Wedding a few steps, brought in The Huntsman (who's saved/protected both parents now), Maleficent (in both her forms) and Rumpelstiltskin (who's mechanizing the whole chess board of people).

Go to!

Snow/Charming

[ahuntsman]

I just freakin' love my pup.

I just - augh. He is SO AWESOME and heroic and kick-ass. And eeeee!

But this is not about the Huntsman.


I just want to express all of my feels ever re: Snow and Charming in FTL. I just love the look on Snow's face when Charming proposes and she stares at the ring on her finger. It's just ... idk, really cute to see her looking at it like it suits her perfectly when episodes ago, she was all, 'This doesn't suit me.'

JUST. UGH.

Their true love appeals to the romantic in me.

And yes, it is SUPER Disney movie, but Charming and his cape swooshing? SO. PERFECT. It is Ultimate in Prince Charming-ness. And I just - my friend and I squeaked SO LOUD when it happened. It's just too cute.

THEY ARE TOO CUTE.

*giggles so hard*


Hearts. In. Mah. Eyes. And. Tears.

The look on her face when he proposes. How they're going to do everything from now on -- together. I flailed happily at that line. They had so much hope and faith and magic.

THE CLOAK IS BEYOND REPROACH. SO STORYBOOK. :D :D :D

I loved it. I watched gif's of it through today as tumblr giggled about it. I love this show for letting us be five years old again in all the very very best ways.


They are the OTP to end all OTP's for this canon (thus far?). What with a kiss that doesn't simply save them, but heals the whole land around them from episode one. Being all linked. Their True Love owns me hook, line, sinker.




Especially when these two finally meet again in SB. The names and then just, no one has words at first. They are just all hands and eyes and this gasping almost inability to speak at all. Because they have each other. Because they've always been right here, unable to stop loving each other or see each other at the same time.

It's so. SO. My heart. Tiny squeaky breathy scene.

THIS SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH. I just love getting to relive all of those Disney movies, but in live-action, bendy, twisty, new-things-are-happening ways. It is just - I think that's why I love this show so much. It's nostalgia + a new flavour because we're all grown-up now added together to create something so damned wonderful.
