Well fuck, who gave out the tiaras, and why didn't anyone tell me?

Fic Challenge - Fairy Princess Style

Stupid bunny. So, some people have already received emails about this, but here's a fic challenge, inspired by one line in Rise Above by Dystopcia.

Hallucinations from rotten apples in Mrs Kent's pie.

And bam, we get "Ooohh, kryptonite laced apples. The havoc it would wreak."

And suddenly I'm thinking Snow White. A fairy tale done Smallville style. Where the fairy princesses aren't so perfect (hell they might in fact be princes) and it's a lot harder to discern who the evil witch is.

So I dare anyone and everyone to come up with their own Smallville version of a fairy tale. Obscure or mainstream. You can be practically verbatim, or use a plot loosely and twist it to meet your characters' needs. Whatever works. Just have fun and screw with their heads.




And coincidentally, my Fairy Tale fic will be Snow White (since it is the one that inspired this madness). And oddly enough, the soundtrack I've mentally got going with it right now is "Die Another Day" by Madonna.

*nods* Twisted would be the appropriate term, correct?

Now to decide on who gets to be Snow White.

*pondering*

There's an emporer who falls in love with the sound of the nightengale singing outside his window. The bird sings for his pleasure, and visits with him, and I think someone brings the EMporer a clockwork nightengale that takes his facy. The real bird flies off, brokenhearted. Then the emporer becomes ill and on his deathbed the bird comes back to sing for him again. I think thsi actually may be a Western fairy tale that's just set in Imperial China.
