“Storybrooke is mine now. And I brought some friends. You know, I’ve been looking for a place like this for quite some time… A land where all the world’s lost and forgotten stories could play themselves out. And now that I have brought them here, that is exactly what they’re going to do.”
– Mr HydeSo who do you think he brought with him? I’m guessing maybe Aladdin just simply because they haven’t done it yet. What else is left?
I’m thinking of writing a post-season five fic and so speculation would be very helpful.
Doesn’t have to be a Disney cartoon. Or Disney at all, although for a well-known character from a live Disney show, you could use Zorro. Any book/character that’s fairly well known could be used – Captain Blood, The Three Musketeers, *insert favorite detective here*, Little Women, Heidi, etc. A character from Shakespeare! Look over your bookshelves, which made you wonder ‘what happened next?’
Thank you both!
So from you guys I have the options of:
– Paul Bunyon
– Aladdin
– Some Jane Austen.
– Zorro
-Captain Blood
– The Three Musketeers
– Are you thinking Agatha Christie detective? or Sherlock Holmes? or someone else?
– Little Women, Heidi
– Shakespeare
Then I googled and apparently in the show the storybook pages had:
– Gulliver’s Travels
– Don Quixote
– Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
I did some googling of my own and there are numerous other options from Disney’s catalogue though like you said it doesn’t have to be from Disney, just think about a story and ask “what happened next?”. Although with Jekyll and Hyde we do seem to be in the middle of that one, not the end and he said about the tales “playing themselves out” so maybe some of them from the land of untold stories aren’t complete.
I don’t know. It doesn’t really matter that much because the focus of the fic will be on the main characters – as it should be. I don’t really care about exploring new places and new stories, unless it offers development for the regular people. I was just thinking I should probably include something.
I will get plotting. For oneshots I just write, but for longer stuff I need an outline or I tend to write myself into a corner.
You guys have been very helpful! Thank you!
