Fairytale AU Meme [Open]

[firesealed]

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

"Ok!" Pause. "...What's a hug?" Teach him how to human, Kai.

[tothealtar]

That's the saddest thing Kai has ever heard. He's going to move over to Ryoji and wrap his arms around him.

[dangerouslyinlove]

Oh! Ryoji will give it a moment before he wraps his arms around Kai in turn, settling there. This is nice. "...I like hugs," he decides, with a smile.

[tothealtar]

Kai grins, holding on still for the moment. "Fantastic."

[dangerouslyinlove]

Ryoji, not knowing anything about hugs, is just going to stay in said hug until Kai backs off. He likes it too much to move, and he'll even nuzzle his head against Kai's in friendly affection.

[tothealtar]

After a little while Kai will move back, his head full of ideas. "We need to get you real clothes so you can try other things."

[dangerouslyinlove]

Awww. Oh well, they can try it again later. "Ok. What kinds of things?" He wants to do all of them.

[tothealtar]

"Jumping! And tickling. And dancing." For a start.

[dangerouslyinlove]

"Those all sound fun!" Ryoji is excited to try all of these things.

[tothealtar]

"So...clothes." Because they should start there.

[dangerouslyinlove]

"Right." Even if Ryoji still isn't sure he sees the point. "Where could I get those?"

[tothealtar]

"People." Maybe Kai should infiltrate a town market!

[dangerouslyinlove]

That doesn't help. "But I can't go around people until I have clothes, right?" This is hard.

[tothealtar]

"No. But I can. I'd just need a way to get there." And not be recognized as the Prince.

[dangerouslyinlove]

"I could take you." But. Dragon. He would be noticed.

[tothealtar]

"Maybe to the edge of town. Oh. I'll need money though."

[dangerouslyinlove]

Ryoji thinks about this for a moment. "How much?"

[tothealtar]

"Umm..." That's a great question. "Enough?"

[dangerouslyinlove]

"What's enough?" At least give him some kind of estimate or something.

[tothealtar]

"I don't really know. I've never really had to...buy my own clothing like that."

[dangerouslyinlove]

"Oh." Hmm... "Well, I've got some gold coins and stuff. I just don't know how much it's actually worth." A lot. He's a dragon; he hoards things. He just doesn't understand actual value yet.

[tothealtar]

And Kai's grown up in a palace. "I'll see what I can get with them for you."

[dangerouslyinlove]

"Ok!" Here, Kai. He'll let you come back into the deeper caves, where there's a lot of... stuff. Just stuff. Anything Ryoji found interesting, which veers from stuffed animals to books to magic items, as well as a rather substantial pile of gold.

[tothealtar]

Kai crouches down beside one of the stuffed animal curiously, before he remembers his mission and heads towards the (less interesting) gold.

[dangerouslyinlove]

It's ok, Kai, Ryoji thinks the stuffed animals are more interesting too.

They wrangle up a little coin purse thing and Ryoji fills it with gold. "I hope that's enough..."
