AU Thursday: Once Upon A Time. . .Cinder-Alice

Sooo, have I come up with a Valice fairy tale AU yet? Well, I'm happy to say that I have!

Three years after Nebbychan did!

Yes, the AU in question is good old "Cinderella." My friend Nebby did a gender-flip AU called "Cinder-Victor" back in 2016, where Victor was in the Cinderella role to Nell, Bumby, and Barkis, and Alice got to be the princess, which was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it quite a bit, but I figure I might as well detail my own take on the idea, given it seems like the best fairy tale AU for the Valice pairing.

So, as per usual, Victor is the prince of a small but prosperous fishing kingdom, with the main difference being that he's not in an arranged marriage -- at least not yet. His parents are going over prospects and trying to decide which alliances would benefit them the most. Victor understands the need for good relationships between royal families and political benefits and all that jazz, but he can't help but wish they'd involve him in the process more. Mainly so he can meet some of these princesses and maybe, just maybe, fall in love with one of them.

Alice, meanwhile, has been the slave of one Angus Bumby ever since she was about eight or so. She used to be the daughter of local schoolmaster, Arthur Liddell, but that was before Bumby -- who was obsessed with her older sister, Lizzie -- broke into her house, raped and killed her older sister, and then killed her parents. A master of dark arts, he's cast a spell on her that prevents her from telling anyone what he's done or harming him in any way, and forces her to play servant in her own home while he enjoys the Liddell family fortune and puts up a show of being a "philanthropist" who helps orphans (while secretly funneling them off to unsavory sorts). Alice is furious with her circumstances, but can't figure out a way to escape as she doesn't know anything about magic, and Bumby keeps her busy enough that she can't learn.

But then two important things happen:

Firstly, one day, she and Victor stumble into each other at the edge of the Liddell estate. Victor explains he was part of a hunting party of local lords and got lost while they pursued a deer. He and Alice get to chatting, and find they rather like each other. They end up meeting each other regularly by the spot (which has a convenient twisty oak to mark the location), getting to know each other and forming a friendship. Alice of course can't explain her situation, but she's happy enough with Victor being a bright spot in the terrible monotony of her days.

Secondly, she finds a hurt cat on the grounds and, feeling sorry for it, gives it some fish and bandages its wounds as best she is able. It stays the night in her attic room, but vanishes in the morning -- Alice occasionally sees it watching her around the estate, but is never able to tempt it back toward her, despite her desire to keep it as a sort of pet. She contents herself with leaving the occasional scraps of meat under the tree it seems to like best.

Eventually, Victor's parents tire of the whole "trying to figure out which kingdom we want to ally with most" game and decide the best thing to do is let it shake out via a kind of lottery. They announce a grand ball that all the nearby princesses and eligible ladies are invited to, and whomever makes the best impression on the prince will have his hand. Victor is astonished, but cautiously on-board because holy crap he gets a say in this --

Alice, upon hearing of the party and realizing Victor might fall in love with and marry someone else, realizes she absolutely hates the idea and that she's in love with him.

Of course, not being a princess, she's not invited to the big shindig, and while the Van Dorts have generously arranged a party for any commoners who want to attend the same night, it's not in the same location and she'd never be able to sneak into the proper ball. Not to mention, Bumby makes it pretty clear that she's not going anywhere near either party (having noticed her resemblance to Lizzie, and making a few plans to force her to marry him before anyone else gets any ideas). The night of the ball, Alice retires to her room, feeling miserable. . .

To find a large grinning cat sitting on her bed, asking why she looks so despondent when she has a party to go to.

Yes, turns out the cat she helped was the mortal disguise of a Faerie creature, the Cheshire Cat, from the realm of Wonderland. Aiding him when he was injured has earned her a boon, and he and his friends, upon seeing her reaction to the news of the ball, figure spiriting her out so she can enjoy a night on the town seems like decent repayment. Alice, after making sure this isn't going to get her into debt with any Faerie monsters, is all for it, and receives a beautiful blue gown, a hat/mask combo, and glass slippers enchanted to never break. They also throw in a mild charm that will keep anyone from figuring out who she really is, just in case. They spirit her off to the ball, and Alice enjoys a night of dancing and revelry -- mainly with Victor, who thinks she seems both really nice and really familiar, but between the mask and the charm he just can't place her. . .

And then midnight hits, and the Queen of Hearts, the ruler of Wonderland, appears and tells Alice that it's now morning, their agreement was for a night, and if she doesn't leave now, she'll undo all the magic and leave her naked in the castle. Alice promptly bolts for the exit to avoid angering her -- but in the process, loses a slipper. Victor collects it and tells his parents that, if he has to marry a princess after only knowing them a night, the owner of this slipper is the one he wants. Everyone tries to figure out who the mystery princess was, but thanks to the magic, nobody can remember her name or quite what she looked like. Frustrated, Nell declares that whoever fits the slipper can have her son's hand. A lot of young women try, but the slipper, despite LOOKING like it should fit one of them, always seems to be just off. . .

Meanwhile, the Queen of Hearts has discovered the loss of the slipper, and declares that Alice now owes them a boon. She decides that Alice should come serve her for a while in her court. Alice, who has discovered that Bumby is planning their wedding for the near future, is actually all for this, even if she doesn't like the Queen that much -- but Bumby discovers what's going on before she can be taken away, and he and the Queen get into a scuffle over Alice. The Queen undoes the spells Bumby has cast upon Alice, and Alice IMMEDIATELY takes the opportunity to get a knife and stab the bastard to death. With a murder on her hands, she's now even more eager to escape to Wonderland. . .

And then Victor shows up with the shoe. Partly because he's been going around trying it on people anyway, partly because, while having a think about what he enjoyed about the princess's company, he realized that what he liked is that she reminded him of Alice -- which led him to realize he has feelings for her. So he's hoping she's either the mystery princess, or, failing that, he can fake that she fits the shoe so he can marry her. He's -- more than a little shocked by the dead body, but Alice tells him the truth of what Bumby's been doing, and he basically goes "okay yeah, that was definitely self-defense." He gets his guards to help search for evidence and attend to the orphans, then tries the shoe on Alice.

Perfect fit, of course. He's thrilled, as is Alice -- however, the whole thing with the Queen of Hearts stands, and she says that any nuptials will have to be delayed until she's fulfilled her obligation. The Queen is willing to at least let Alice go to the palace and explain what happened to the royals in person (while reclaiming the shoe, obviously), and everyone heads over. Nell is furious that some "nobody commoner using fairy tricks" snagged her son's heart and declares that she won't honor the agreement because Alice isn't a princess.

The Queen of Hearts, who has already decided she Does Not Like this woman and getting impatient with all this nonsense, responds by spontaneously adopting Alice.

Well then! Nell shuts up, realizing she's probably playing with fire; the Queen wonders what the fuck she just did but is obliged to honor it because of her nature (also because Cheshire totally saw it and won’t let her go back on her word); Alice tries not to burst out laughing. She accompanies the Queen back to Wonderland as the new Princess of Hearts, and gets married to Victor in a fairy glade that connects the two realms. And they lived happily ever after, alternating their time between Wonderland and reality.

Bonus: If you want to include Victoria and Emily, they could be princesses that attended the same ball, who both liked Victor and were hoping to make a good impression on him -- only to fall in love with each other while the whole thing with Alice was going on. XD

#cinder-alice #au ideas #fairy tales #yeah I had a think about it #and I figured 'Cinderella really fits Alice's circumstances in the games'#'as long as I make it different enough from Nebby's take'#which I think I very much did #the Queen adopting Alice out of spite at Nell was a late but hilarious addition XD #I just love the idea of those two butting heads honestly #so much passive-agressive sniping on both sides #and the Queen constantly calling for Nell to be beheaded #only to be reminded that it's a bad idea to kill your son-in-law's mother #hehehehe #but I like this AU idea and think it came out well #the Wonderlanders being Alice's fairy godparents (in a sense) tickles me #Alice looks at this group regularly and wonders 'what the hell did I get myself into' XD #queued

Innumerable Stars 2017 letter

Hello, dear Innumerable Stars Author!

I am kim_onka at AO3 (I don’t keep very consistent with usernames, but don’t let it confuse you), and I’m already looking forward to what you up for me! I’m sure I’ll enjoy it, and in the meantime, here is a letter to help you. (For fandom-specific: I don’t have prompts for everything, but even if don’t mention it here, it doesn’t mean I don’t want it!)

What I like in general:

Exploration of a character’s situation, motivations, relationships with other characters

Internal conflicts, conflicted loyalties, regrets directed towards another person

The power of love and friendship, but also how sometimes it’s not enough

Family drama, complicated relationships within family

But also how even so, it’s important and leaves a lasting mark

Formality/courtesy/fealty/power plays in personal relations, especially contrasted with strong feelings

Canon filler, elaboration of minor incidents

Beautiful romance

AUs are fine, especially if it’s canon divergence/what-if scenario; for full AUs, avoid High School AUs and most types of modern AUs unless you have a truly great idea

Kidfics are appreciated

Eucatastrophe

The general “high note” of the Tolkien works

Hope in an apparently hopeless situation

Really good, witty comedy (think “A Practical Guide for the Courtship of Elves, by Beren son of Barahir” by Nerdy Nell or “Siege Mentality” by Insomniac Luddite; in any case, you should enjoy them); I hold this type of writing to be among the most impressive and the most difficult, so this is only if you feel up to it

Art-specific: details! Elaborate hair and clothes, jewellery, symbolism, flowers, emotions, weaponry… pointed elf ears ;) I admit I don’t have much of a visual imagination, so I’m not fully sure what I want from art, but for similar reasons I tend to be amazed at art, so I’m sure I’ll like it.

What I dislike:

Sexual violence

Slash

Overly sexualised content in general

Character bashing/demonisation

Sacrilegious/blasphemous content

Overly politicised content

The Silmarillion

Celebrimbor: all of his conflicting loyalties, his relationships with his grandfather (how much does he remember? To what extent is he shaped by Fëanor’s legacy?), his grandmother, his parents, his uncles – do they keep in touch, what do they think of his actions regarding Curufin? Also, in my headcanon he was friends with Finduilas

Maglor&Elrond&Elros(&Maedhros): how much did it cost them to learn to love each other? How did it happen? How much conflict did it create in each of them? How did it affect the boys’ later years? Truly, anything about that

The wives of the Fëanorians: who were they? How did they meet? How did they feel about marrying into the House of Fëanor? What made them decide to stay/leave?

Annael&Tuor: there’s so little about them! What was their life together like?

The Gondolin royal family: Turgon – what kind of father was he, what kind of grandfather? His relationship with Idril after Elenwë’s death, him being a loving grandpa to little Eärendil, all against the overall dilemmas facing Gondolin

Eärendil’s relationship with his parents, especially as he grew up and they sailed away, the way he searches for them, at the expense of his own family

Maeglin/Idril: either canonically one-sided or reciprocated (for reciprocated: preferably Idril is at once drawn to Maeglin and repulsed by him, and conflicted because of that)

Fëanturi&Nienna: Irmo’s powers related to dreams, all of theirs powers related to the soul

The Sea: who/what lives there? Let your imagination go wild!

The elusive nature of Elven magic

Elven marriage: the practical consequences of a marriage bond, how does it feel, do you feel your spouse die, etc., one thing: please refrain from portraying the LACE in a decisively negative light, or negating it

Elf ghosts: why do they stay? The ones that try to take over the bodies of the living, the ones that turn to evil despite their intentions… you can make a canon character remain as a ghost or make up stories to exemplify how it happens, as you like

The Lord of the Rings

Imrazôr/Mithrellas & their kids: how did they get together and why did she leave? I am fascinated by this story and would love to see your take

Elrond/Celebrían & their kids: the story of their courtship, their parting and reunion, daily life at Imladris, relationships between them

Rohan: Éomer and Éowyn growing up; as kids with their parents, with Théodred; how it all develops during the war and afterwards; how does Éowyn like Lothiriel?

(Here I need to note one thing: I love Éowyn’s story, and to me the main and most beautiful part of it is her learning to appreciate life again after having sought death. I’ve seen people treat this character development as negative or sexist; please avoid this interpretation.)

Gondor: the relationship between Denethor and Finduilas, their kids growing up

Faramir/Éowyn: how do they help each other?

Smith of Wootton Major

It’s such a beautiful story

I would love to see an elaboration on the Land of Faery and its connection to our world, the attitudes of the Queen and the King

Farmer Giles of Ham

Preferably something funny, as the story itself – but really, anything (that doesn’t violate my DNWs, of course)

Roverandom

Here I’m mostly interesting in worldbuilding – the Moon, the dreams, the spiders, the Sea realm

But I’d also love to read about Artaxerxes and his wife

The Hobbit

The Fairy Wife of the Took ancestor, there may be an interesting story there

Elves, as they’re shown in The Hobbit, and how it connects with the image of Elves in other books

Elrond and his view of the quest, his attitude to other characters, especially Bilbo

#innumerable stars 2017 letter
