Exactly. To all things. (And seriously, watch Brave. Because, actually, that is sort of what her speech rejecting the suitors is. Except it isn't something 'just rejecting the suitors speech'.)
And yes- that is one of the series I have saved in a folder that is half tolkien art and half disney princesses or sailor moon in period clothing (w/ a tiny bit of Austen). I call it my "inspiration reference folder" aka pretty art, let's be honest.
FitzHerbert, so we have a good clue how Eugene ends up in a orphanage. But as I said- this is honestly the most thought I've put into Tangled. The movie really did as much for me as Emperor's New GrooveGroove.
Hey- I loved Princess Elionwy- and the book series more, for all that in the movie you don't hear about her kingdom you don't get the sense that she was running away or rebelling against anything internally. Talk about obscure.
Oh, I love to make happier AU explanations for stories. The problem with doomed couples only reunited in the afterlife being one of my story-telling hooks -as I was chatting about at the forum- and the dearest one to my heart is one of those doomed before it had a chance to begin and doesn't even have the 'reunited in the afterlife possiblity'... When you have those, almost as a coping mechanism, you learn to make "that happier world where things worked out a little better". Like our family joke of, "No, no. Palpatine was eaten by the Zillo Beast. Anakin quits the order, never such a thing as Vader. Happy endings la-la-la-covering-my-ears; you still get the awkward family dinner where Leia brings new boyfriend Han and Dad is all "Where is your brother? He's late" aka Cloud City....
It's that classic trope problem of the princess never upgrading to Queen.
Kida? Is she the only one I can think of?
And I keep forgetting to type out half the points I want to make each time and sending off on tangents.
