Unenlightened: The Knight of the Dawn and Princess Leia were both perfect analogues for both Aurora's parents and the Aurora and Prince Philip from the 1959 Sleeping Beauty movie relationship wise.

Enlightened: The Knight of Dawn and Princess Leia had a relationship superficially like the stereotypical fairy tale couple, but actually married/make it seem like their relationship was romantic out of convenience and to spite Henrik so Leah could secure her right to the throne and eventually fell in love along the way/did still have Silver and loved him but didn't love one another like that.

Ascended: The Knight of the Dawn and Princess Leia were in a fake relationship but one was either Ace/also batted for their own team and fake dated mostly so Leah could get suitors off her back, on occasion they were one another's wingman/woman.

#twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland meme #kinda #twisted wonderland knight of the dawn #the knight of the dawn #twisted wonderland Princess Leia #I know it's highly unlikely #but I think it would be really funny in hindsight #and a fun twist to the usual fairy tale trope as twisted wonderland likes to do #with people being analogues and walking similar roads to their og counterparts but never quite aligning due to different circumstances #I personally think that since we didn't get much on Leia (which might actually be on purpose) that we can do a lot with her #and personally I think it would be interesting if her and Dawn were closer relationship wise to Lily Orlamunde and Duke Randolph #from the Holy Grail of Eris or Kaeyena and Raffaello from The Villainess is a Marionette #than the usual fairy tale couple. I mean she likely was the first in succession unlike Henrik for a reason #I mean the bar is down in the Underworld for that. But I like to think it's because she was more capable alongside being know for her beaut #might just be me #I have way too many thoughts on TKoD and Leia #I also think that maybe the reason Henrik knew he could get Dawn to fight by threathening Leia is less because she was vulnerable #but because since Henrik is a rank above Dawn he techinically could raise enough of a fuss to separate them #And that could put Leia in a VERY unfavorable position in the future alongside taking one of the few things TKoD truly has #Might just be the sleep deprived thoughts tho I dunno
