Pick one of my characters and I'll toss a disney/fairytale au scenario at you! I've got some rough descriptions of their roles below. You can start, or you can just give their name in a top-level and I’ll write something up. These can be shippy or not, although given the descriptions I’ll probably tend towards that way unless you tell me you don’t want that

Alec: Damsel in distress, suicidal, who thinks this whole thing is stupid and this story can be ended if anyone at any point just solves the problem of the ‘princess’ for good

Annabel: Necromancer, who tries to find love by bringing hers back from the dead

Dominic: Knight, who’s pretty sure that he’s supposed to slay the ‘dragon’ but might end up falling in love with him/her instead

I-No: The evil witch, finds delight in other people’s suffering

Ivy: The persecuted heroine, who badly wants to believe in love but doesn’t really believe that it can trump the facts of life

Kai: Prince charming, careful and earnest, hugely romantic who thinks that life’s course can be changed by love

Ky: Either the hero, earnest but not very good at people, or the damsel in distress who’s going to apologize for having to be rescued

Rose: Ghost girl, who will accept a coat in exchange for being able to touch and feel for a while

Sol: The dragon, why are you waking him up from his nap just to rescue a princess? He doesn’t have time for this crap.

Valentine: The evil king whose goal in all of this is power and also just seeing the ordinary people scramble

Perhaps it would be better if, the first time, you had a companion that you trusted.

[poolhall_killer]

A companion?

[Does that mean...?]

Would you be willing to escort me, Sir Kiske?

[closedcircuit]

Certainly, if you wished.

You might be safer with another, however.

My path frequently takes me into danger, although I would do my best to protect you.

[poolhall_killer]

[But to be with the great hero Ky Kiske... it's a dream come true!]

I would prefer traveling with you at my side.

[closedcircuit]

Then, if your father agrees, you can leave when I do.

[poolhall_killer]

[Venom nods and runs off to tell his noble parents. They pull him aside and seemingly tell him something that dashes Venom's hopes. The young prince huffs and storms away, returning to Ky somewhat defeated.]

He doesn't think I should go, but I do not agree. I will be joining you tomorrow morning.

[closedcircuit]

I don't wish to create strife between you and your parents...

[poolhall_killer]

It's all right. I will talk to them again after the festivities. I'm sure they will see the merit in my traveling with you.

[closedcircuit]

Perhaps. I can understand their desire to keep you safe.

[poolhall_killer]

Yes, but I don't like not knowing my own kingdom. And I want to see the others in person. Not just from a map.

[As the celebration begins to subside, Venom returns to his family, explaining again why he wants to go with the great hero. This time it's a little longer, but he returns to the handsome knight with a smile on his face.]

My apologies for keeping you waiting, Sir Kiske. They said I can accompany you, but I must take a couple of our guards if that's all right with you.

[closedcircuit]

It's fine.

[Ky's never...escorted someone into danger before, but he'll just have to do his best to ensure that nothing actually happens.]

[poolhall_killer]

Good.

Would you like me to escort you to the guest chamber?

[closedcircuit]

Ah. I think, that is--

I can find it myself.

[poolhall_killer]

Are you sure?

[Venom gives him a very concerned (and sweet) look.]

[closedcircuit]

Yes.

[A hero of the realm should be able to find his own room.]

[poolhall_killer]

All right. I will see you tomorrow morning.

Sleep well, Sir Kiske.

[Venom leans up and pecks the knight's cheek before he turns bright red.]

[closedcircuit]

[Ky turns red himself, stammering something -- he himself isn't sure what -- and stepping back.]
