a little more about my page ✧°.

fav character: i 🫶 raven queen

fav season: dragon games

fav ships: dexven, class of classics evil queen and good king, (top 2) and red riding hood and big bad wolf class of classics

least favorite character: i believe that all of the characters had their own motives and it really explains why they acted that way, so none of the students, but headmaster grimm. he’s just that one annoying principal that screams 24/7.

royal/rebel: i’m a rebel!!

actually can we just talk about how even more fucked up the swan lake story is in the context of the eah world??? Like in the ballet, when the prince fails to recognise his princess, she just straight up dies. And he’s so devastated and can’t live a life without her that he just kills himself. But ofc eah is a kids franchise made to sell dolls and can’t talk about death!!! So instead, the princess is doomed to spend the rest of her life as a swan, and the prince again, cannot live his life without her that he instead chooses to become a swan as well. In next top villain, duchess looks into the lake, wondering if any of the swans could be her mother, so it’s also implied that her parents lose their human memories when permanently turned into swans and have the level of intelligence of a swan. Like your parents are not only completely unrecognisable to you now in their new forms, but they also have no idea who you are, cannot remember how important you used to be, reduced to nothing but birds. It is a fate worse than death, that they are so near, yet so far. And the worst part of all, is that to Duchess, her father abandoned her to become a swan. That he chose her mother over her, a vulnerable young child that needed love and care and support. That Duchess wasn’t worth sticking around for, that she wasn’t enough for him to stay. So she pushes herself to be perfect, to get the highest grades and to be the most flawless ballet performer. She’s begging to be loved. And if that’s not a horror movie, I don’t know what is

hello ?!?! has anyone else seen that ever after high is leaving netflix in a month !!! i binge watch this show every couple months,,, where am i suppose to watch it now ??

[mirrornetsblog]

samee omgg i still can’t believe it !! i was hoping for a return (no chance haha) but not removing it completely i felt stabbed.

[avianator]

So... I rewatched Ever After High with my friends

And I suddenly thought "Hey what if Cerise and Darling started bonding about shared secrets" and noticed how they hung out during Dragon Games

So now I'm obsessing over them and my friends and I came up with the ship name Knighthood for them

something that’s always confused me is the timeline, specifically in terms of the evil queen. i don’t think we’re ever fully given an actual timeline of events for anything prior to the beginning of the series (i’ll get into the whole grimm brothers basement babble spell situation later) but in way too wonderland when it’s showing her cursing wonderland and kitty, lizzie and maddie escaping w hatter, they’re all well into their teens, but i don’t know if they were ACTUALLY teenagers or if they just did that to avoid having to design and animate them as younger and just used their current designs. i’ve always felt like the main cast were at least children when it happened, anywhere between 5-10 and that raven spent most of her childhood w just her dad but that one scene gave me pause, but it wouldn’t make sense for it to have been quote unquote “recent” bc then lizzie wouldn’t miss her mother as much bc she’d have just seen her ?? and dragon games wouldn’t make much sense either bc eq would have been broken out super soon after being put in and snow, while obviously not fully trusting her, trusted her ENOUGH to give her a temporary parden for tdg, which she wouldn’t be stupid enough to do if the “reign of evil” had only JUST happened so it’s had to at least have been a few years right ? somebody help me i feel like im going insane and i can’t find a definitive answer ANYWHERE

[mirrornetsblog]

you’re onto something !! they were definitely teenagers when the evil queen was imprisoned, and in the grimm brothers capturing her when she was stealing the storybook of legends is confusing because we also saw red riding hood and the evil queen take a picture while she was holding the storybook of legends.

from what i know is that in the books, (feel free to correct me if i’m wrong haha) in the books raven mentioned that she was lonely up until maddie transferred, which was 2 years before legacy day. raven met maddie a year before legacy day, which meant that maddie was in fact a teenager when that happened. also, about lizzie, assuming how she keeps track of the well of wonder to wonderland, maybe she found a way to go to wonderland from before?? but that wouldn’t explain how she was sad how she would never go home..?

and in the storybook of legends, the evil queen asked raven how she was doing and since it was a yearly mirror chat, she asked if there’s anything new in her daughter’s life, so raven goes “same as last year, and the year before. she only mentioned 2 years. just like how 2 years before legacy year she met maddie, so the evil queen cursed wonderland 2 years before she got imprisoned. which would also make sense on how she was still heavily feared and talked about in school, if they were to capture her when raven was little, then faybelle would not be fangirling over her if it wasn’t recent. and to me, snow white’s actions made perfect sense to me because she wasn’t really trusting her, she knows what the evil queen is capable of, so in front of the crowd she’d give her a “pardon” to not cause any drama and fear of her subjects and secretly put her back in her mirror realm. she had the booking glass with her and was looking for ANY excuse to use it.

also, just want to mention for anyone confused, because i see this a lot haha. the evil queen didn’t really mean what she said when in dragon games she said that whoever breaks her prison would get more than seven years of bad luck. it was a myth that whoever breaks a mirror gets 7 years of bad luck but she was promising them more than bad luck for 7 years if u get what im saying.

hope that made sense haha im writing this at like 1am sorry if theres any confusion !!

i’m actually gonna cry why is ever after high getting taken off of netflix?? netflix wtf?? does anyone know where i can watch it in order like does any other website provide that or am i gonna have to cry myself to sleep and mourn the loss of my favourite childhood show.

[agoraphcbja]

sometimes i mourn that darling was introduced to the series so late bc i desperately want to know what she’d be doing during the earlier episodes. what did she do during the food fight in the day ever after. what did her legacy day outfit look like. what did her THRONECOMING outfit look like. she’s supposed to be dexter’s twin and we literally never even see them speak a word to each other. they were in the same frame TWICE and they’re not even interacting. it makes me sad that we didn’t get to see her flittering around in the background like we do w all the other characters 🙁

the idea of daring with white hair or a very very pale shade of blonde after epic winter is very interesting to me... with little fangs too

[lizzieheartsfanclub]

i don’t think they ever even mention the concept of money in ever after high but im currently up thinking about the financial ramifications of blondie trying to keep up with her royal friends in terms of consumption…saving up for weeks to get a new dress and by the time she’s made enough the one she wanted is already out of style…never being a blue to invite her friends over because she feels ashamed living in a little cozy cabin rather than a full castle with staff…having to decide between upgrading a microphone for her radio show and going out with her friends on the weekends. much to think about.

I find the way that evilness was portrayed in Raven during wtw to be just... very true to her. Like she became ruthless and mean, but her destruction was not aimless. She had a goal, and that goal was to defeat Courtly. But she never wanted to intentionally hurt her friends. When Apple stepped in front of her, Raven didn't just push through to get to Courtly. She didn't want to harm Apple.

I don't think that signing the storybook made Raven evil- I think it amplified her flaws. She wasn't working against good, she was working against Courtly because Courtly was hurting her friends and trying to stage a coup. Evil Raven is only really considered evil because she suddenly became extremely angry and violent, but I don't think that those qualities were completely absent before. Raven was angry, and rightfully so. And we've seen her anger burst through in her magic (ex. turning Grimm into a chicken, freezing the crowd during legacy day). But what stopped these things from taking over her was her overwhelming kindness- Raven had no desire to hurt anyone. No matter how rude to her they were, she always made an effort to be thoughtful and caring.

I think this is how to storybook works- it doesn't just flip a switch and makes you evil, it looks for the traits in everyone that most aligns with their story. Vanity is a huge part of the role of evil queen, but Raven has just never exhibited that in any capacity, so her evilness wasn't vain. However she has been angry, so her evilness was absolutely furious. But just like it can't create traits out of thin air, it also can't destroy them. One of Raven's most defining features is her immense love for her friends. So of course that was still in her, signing couldn't just make that disappear. It doesn't mold the person to the role, it molds the role to the person. And I think a big reason of why she could break out of the trance that the storybook out her in was because her friends are such a big anchor for who she is. I think that just how the storybook rearranged her traits to amplify and put the negative ones at the forefront, she was able to find herself again by doing the same thing in reverse.

And I think this a big part of why she had a lot more angry moments in dragon games (which I love. Angry Raven I love u). I feel like the begining of the series and dg are when Raven is at her angriest. And I think that after signing, Raven probably became a lot more susceptible to sudden changes in her emotions. Like oh my god imagine your personality gets shifted around and then u just have to find ur way back to normal? Holy shit what a nightmare. The building blocks of ur person get knocked down and scrambled into a tenuously balanced tower and then u just have to rebuild them all in their original fashion. Let this 16 year old girl REST!!! PLEASE!!!!

[mirrornetsblog]

so as i’m writing the dragon games rewrite i realized that i wrote 10 chapters for the first episode only.. and im not even half way done thru the episode. the chapter count is about 35-36 chapters (or longer if i decide to not take down some chapters)

ALSO i wanted to emphasize that i deleted some ideas from my original post, but to those who gave me their ideas and requests WILL be tagged once i publish it 🫶
