Summary
Stiles clicks off his microphone and leans back as soft guitars begin to build over the station speakers, spilling out into the street in front of his window. Outside the town is quiet, not that Storybrooke is ever a bustling city. It’s small and quaint and everyone pretty much knows everyone. It’s comforting in a way, even if something deep down in Stiles longs for more.

Summary
The story was about a young girl named Cinderella who lived happily with her father until he married a cruel woman with two equally cruel daughters. When the father died, Cinderella was forced to become a maid and served her stepmother and stepsisters. Then when a ball was held, a fairy godmother granted Cinderella a dress, a carriage, and a pair of glass slippers that ultimately gained her a happy ending with her Prince Charming.
But that's not how it all goes down in this dark retelling....

Summary
In this alternate universe of Lamento BTV, we meet Konoe as a young boy of 10, who is living with his father, Shui. He lost his mother at birth. Shui is a great dad, a successful and well-known traveling musician, who one day brings home a new partner and husband. At this point in the story, Konoe is 16 and is dealing with his second "fairy godparent," Razel, and it's the second of four nights of the prince's birthday celebration.
If you have a history of child abuse, this story is probably not for you. But it will have a happy ending.
I do not own Lamento BTV. They belong to Nitro+Chiral. Also, I do not condone child abuse or neglect. This is all fiction.
To be fair, Ginji isn't a prominent figure, but he provides background. However, since the character is definitely Ginji, I felt like I needed to add the reference.
This is part 3 of at least a three-part series. Start with part 1 if you're new. Chapter summaries follow each chapter.

Summary
A long time ago, in the kingdom of Leoman, two boys named Steve and Bucky lived under the watchful eye of Steve's mother, Sarah. Raised to be fair and kind, brave and true, the two were family in all but blood. Yet their idyllic existence was to be short-lived, and when tragedy struck, the boys were torn apart. One was taken into the home of a strange man with stranger children, while the other was forced to bear the weight of a crown he did not ask for.
As the years went on, Steve Rogers forgot the boy he'd known so well. He grew into a fine young man; fair and kind, brave and true. So, when he met a stranger in the woods - someone who needed his help - what other choice did he have?

This is a rewrite of one of my favorite fairy tales, Little Burnt Face, which is classified as a Cinderella story. If you don't know what the tale is, look it up. But I thought of the idea and, well, why not.

Summary
There once was a tumblr post that reimagined Les Amis as Gothic fiction tropes. My mind went wild with the idea, and here we are: Les Amis, reimagined, with gratuitous literary references to various Romantics and other assorted writers.
This is a work in progress; I will add tags and warnings as we go along.
(I can promise that this will stay pretty much PG, though, except for the occasional creepyness along the lines of ETA Hoffmann or EA Poe). -

Summary
I utilized the prompt "fairytale rewrite" from the prompt list created with alpacode (formerly othrys) for the purposes of writing warm-ups for Nanowrimo. This piece features Fred & George Weasley in the role of Hansel and Gretel, following a similar plotline to the Grimm Brother's presentation.
And no fairytale is complete with a classic villain: Dolores Umbridge as the wicked witch.
