But She Did A Lot Of Other Things That Wouldn't Be Approved Of In The Current Eah Universe - Tumblr Posts

I'm simultaneously mad at the authors of Ever After High for saying there are no fairytales that go against the norm of damsel in distress and prince that saves her because it's possible they might not have done their research OR it could be a world building choice and for that i applaud them.

im reading Semi-Charming Kind of Life for a project im working on and im getting so angry by them saying there are no fairy tales where the princess saves the day or rescues herself or goes on an adventure but there are!!!! My personal favorite fairytale is exactly that, she literally carves a hole in the stone wall of her tower with a goddamn bread knife to escape when she realizes no one is coming to save her. There's so much more to that story but that's the start of it.

But it makes so much sense that a story like that, one where the details aren't simple and expected that someone like Headmaster Grimm would cut it from the lineup of stories told in the modern day. To make everyone believe that there is only one way of doing things and nothing has ever veered from that ever. That's part of his whole goal to begin with, isn't it? so to what extent would he be willing to go to confirm that? We already know he's willing to lie and deceive literally the whole world to fit his narrative, so what else would he do?
