Dear Weather,

If you look as though you should be seventy and sunny, then you should very well be seventy and sunny. This looking wonderful but actually being only thirty three degrees?

We are not amused.

Pouting liek woah,
Megan

It's cold and rainy here. Though admittedly probably not as cold as up your way. Still though, I gotta walk in it. *pout*

*nods* These are the days you'd give your left kidney for a huge picture window with a comfy couch underneath it.

It's been a really cold spring. *shivers*

Hey, you have the same tricky weather I've got, beautiful blue skies, sunny, it looks lovely. Unfortunately there's snow on the ground and it's cold enough to see your breath. *is so ready for real Spring*

Word. We got more snow yesterday, so have the added benefit of risking blindness by going outside. But, yay Sun?

I hope it warms a bit, or that ...what would it be? That the Spring Prince hurries up and tosses the Winter Princess out of the throne? Tits of the Winter Princess! ^_______^

What? It's a nice day where I am, if just a tad chilly. That sucks. That really sucks. Well, I'll do a magical jig to send you a heat wave!

*dances furiously*

Ack, yes. I got up this morning and the sky was blue, the sun was out, it was just lovely outside. It looked WARM. Opened the door to get the mail and OMG FREEZING COLD. I hate spring in Pennsylvania.

That's what winter's usually like in metro Denver. Bright and sunny and so cold as to be painful on any exposed skin.

Spring in Hawaii's a lot like summer and early fall in Hawaii.

I miss Hawaii.

You should come back :)

Poor dear. You can come down to the sunny south! It's rainy but a good fourty or so degrees warmer. Plus there's a growing number of slash addicts so you'll fit right in.

Ha ha, I live in Boston and go to school at Amherst, so I know what you mean. I dressed way too lightly this morning when I saw how sunny it looked.

Looking nice still is a plus over snow, though. Our snow-then melt-then snow-then melt is getting rather tiresome.

Review time, if that's okay!
On the fairytales as a whole: I thought it was very, very cool how you managed to work your own twists and ideas into each story without really straying that far from the plotline. I've seen other fairy-tale re-writes that usually just make the princess a disguised or enchanted prince or whatnot. Change the gender and be done with it. And I'm not ragging on those--some have been very good. But how you were able to, for instance, in Rapunzel, keep her a girl, keep her prince, and just introduce some extras to make it your own...that was very impressive.

Now then, to make it a bit more specific...
The Curse: Ohohoh did this one make me happy. I hadn't heard of the original version, but as an original it was a lovely bit of stand-alone. How Sendoa was already achingly in love with Armel--I must say, it took me a few minutes of reading to realize just where the romance would be added (and in the perfect way too). ^^; especially when Sendoa was worrying so much over Zahi, I'll admit to wanting to yell "if you're so worried, then it obviously means you still love him!" at him. And I think I've begun to notice a real weakness for threesomes, because so far it's been a running theme (At least with your work) that those are the ones I instantly attach too ^^;

Damsel in Distress: I wasn't so sure where the introduction about Von's mother was going, and I got a little confused when Thorley was introduced as a goblin (maybe because I wondered just how that happened?) but when the story really began --or rather, when a certain girl started shrieking-- aha...the first thing I did was dissolve into giggles. Just because of her first and second sentences; established her character right away. ^^; but then, I'm a bit odd like that; I have favorite sentences. And I must say, I was very fond of Abby by the end. If she and Rapunzel were to meet...

on Perfect: Witty banter = <3! (Well that and I sort of want to give Joanne a hug.) I loved how Ian instantly sobered the minute Tobias brought up his brothers. I also must add that Tobias actually staying angry at the first few approaches, instead of melting into a puddle of mush, stayed much truer to his character and I enjoyed the breath of fresh air. Not, of course, that I minded the ending at all! Especially how Tobias stayed prickly. Tobias love <3

What a pity these are all one-shots! But then again, I do have more to read...

Heh, I'll end here and not bother you about any of the other fairytales (I've only finished reading about half anyway) but I am enjoying them! Yes!

OMIGOODNESS SOME OF THEM ARE ALL CONNECTED AND I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE. *speeds ahead*
