A little help from my writing-inclined Supernatural fen friends?
Since Tumblr is being unhelpful, I was wondering if anyone here had any opinion. (I say to my...27 mostly inactive flist.)
I’m writing a Fairytale AU where Dean has had his face transmogrified by warlock!Alistair, and Sam and Dean have been using this as an excuse to escape the dullness of court and go questing throughout the lands saving people, hunting things to find a cure for the curse. Somehow, they end up on a hunt in the kingdom of the angels’ family, where Sam tails one of them Gabe of course on a forbidden midnight visit to the faerie realm, where the cure is found by accident.
In the original tale I’m basing this on, the princess overhears a fairy say that their baby’s wand would cure her sister’s curse with three taps.
Now, I’m making it less contrived, by having Gabriel nick it for him as a thank you, but I was wondering what it should be to make it more “Supernatural”.
I was debating having it be the Amulet that breaks the curse somehow, when Dean puts it over his horns. But then I had the thought that Alistair may have cast the curse on the Amulet, knowing that the prince never took it off. And that the curse-breaker was actually Ruby’s knife, or Gabriel’s blade or something.
What do you guys think?
