Fanfiction and fanvids in the following fandoms, with a bias towards Disney princeses, fairy tales and fantasy: Beauty and the Beast, The Blue Castle, Mulan, Once Upon a Time and The Princess Bride.

Beauty and the Beast (the Disney animated movie)

Behold my soul’s true face: AlexSeanchai (post movie gen, background Belle/Adam)

Summary: The castle receives a visitor.

I haven't seen a fic explore this aspect of the film before, so that was interesting. I really liked how Belle was herself here, hospitable, kind, channelling her curiosity and the little details that show how she’s changed the castle and Adam. palpable.

The Blue Castle

The Magic Remains: DesertVixen (Valancy/Barney)

Delightfully continues the story with the romanticism and more prosaic, relatable details, found in the book.

Mulan (1998, the Disney animated movie)

Warrior: AurumCalendula (Mulan character study)

I loved the juxtapositions in this vid and how Mulan's character shines through it all.

Once Upon a Time

Phrenology: random_battlecry (Emma/Jefferson, post 1.17)

Excellent job of conveying a dream state, yet tantalising us with possibility that Jefferson has somehow projected himself into Emma’s dream, as she processes what happened and how she feels about it.

The Princess Bride

A Little Bit Slower: A Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure: Tafadhali

This vid encapsulates the film and works like a cheering charm.
