Fun story, though I’m a bit sad that Gemma missed her moment. It’s an interesting what if…

The 12 Scheming Princes by Rosencrantz for bookherd
Fandoms: 12 Dancing Princesses (Fairy Tale)
02 May 2019
Tags
Summary
In the Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm version of the 12 Dancing Princesses (The Shoes That Were Danced To Pieces), there are these two lines about the nature of the 12 princes that the princesses go each night to see:
The oldest one said, "That is just a joyful salute that they are firing because soon we will have disenchanted our princes."
and
Their wedding was held the same day, and the kingdom was promised to him following the king's death. But the princes had as many days added to their curse as they had spent nights dancing with the twelve princesses.
This story begins and ends the tale of the 12 princes.

Bookmarker's Notes
Interesting exploration of a throwaway line, though it does make the original sadder in its interpretation. Many deny the existence of or villainize the princesses dancing partners and it’s the rare story that considers they might be victims as well and the idea that the princesses were trying to save them was also an interesting twist that wasn’t actually unfeasible.

Bookmarker's Notes
A bit more intense than most of my other bookmarks, but a compelling fairy tale retelling that seeks to fill in the blanks of the Lindworm. I remember when I first read the original story and this felt in a sense true to it while it’s own story.

Hamlet… with muppets. Read only if you’ve read the original play. You won’t appreciate it quite the same otherwise.
