     “This won’t due. I’ve brought the mood down,” Philip said. He pulled Samson up short and swiftly dismounted, then held his hand up to the young lady still stride his steed.

     “Come, milday. Share a dance with me.”

     He smiled warmly, his chocolate eyes smiling more brightly than his lips. He was determined to lift both their moods, and there was nothing better than a dance in the woods for that.

[afunnybeauty]

Belle did her best not to look at him as if he’d grown a second head, but she couldn’t do anything to hide all her shock. She accepted his hand and dismounted. “Thank you,” she replied, “but I don’t dance. I’ve never danced before, not that way. I’m sorry.”

She was loath to turn down such a gallant and charming offer, but she had no alternative. The closest she’d ever come to dancing was a few sways outside a tavern in the early evening. 

[onceuponadream-prince]

     Philip pulled Belle in, holding her close, but loosely. He smiled charmingly down at her. “Then I’ll teach you!” he suggested brightly. “I’ve taken dozens of lessons. I think I’ve learned a thing or two about how to teach in turn.”

     He lifted their hands above her and led her into a twirl in place. “I’ll go slow, until you have the hang of it.”

     He looked down at his companion and a soft smile brushed his lips. “Yes,” he said automatically. “I really have nothing to complain about. And yet I do, nonetheless.” He looked around at the trees, the colors striking against the cobalt sky beyond. “Do you ever feel bad for not liking the life you lead, even though you know it’s the best possible life?”

[afunnybeauty]

Now it was Belle’s turn to sigh. She followed it with the best shrug possible, under the circumstances. “All the time. I don’t have a lot of things or fine clothes, but I’m very lucky in the things I do have…it makes me feel guilty when I want more than that.” 

Belle was very grateful for the life her papa provided for her–and her mama, when she was still alive. They always managed to have bread on the table and Belle always managed to have a story in her heart. They always had each other. Yet, at night when she crawled into bed and gazed out her window at all the magnificent stars in the sky, the yearning returned. Papa needed her here, and she knew that. It didn’t stop the burning need to see it all.

     “This won’t due. I’ve brought the mood down,” Philip said. He pulled Samson up short and swiftly dismounted, then held his hand up to the young lady still stride his steed.

     Before long, the open fields gave way to the woods that surrounded Belle’s village. Phillip felt at home in the woods. The trees hid him from view, and in here, it was much easier not to be a prince, and to only be a man. A dashingly handsome, sophisticated, kind, charming man, let’s be honest, but just a man nonetheless. No one told him of his duties and responsibilities, no one reminded him that in a few short years, he’d be meeting the girl he was supposed to marry. Again, technically, but a baby was not a person yet. People had more personality than that.

     Without meaning to, he sighed, letting his woes out in the breath. Truly, it was good to be a prince like him. He had the freedom to do whatever he wanted, and even if he wasn’t supposed to, he got away with doing it anyway.

[afunnybeauty]

Carefully, Belle turned to look over her shoulder at Phillip so that he could see her delight, only to see what she that he did not share in her present feelings of glee. She raised an eyebrow and turned back to face forwards. The scenery blurred a little and she began to contemplate on her companion’s demeanor instead of taking in the wonder of nature around her. Perhaps she just ought to ask…

“Is everything alright?” she asked, turning back to him.

[onceuponadream-prince]

     He looked down at his companion and a soft smile brushed his lips. “Yes,” he said automatically. “I really have nothing to complain about. And yet I do, nonetheless.” He looked around at the trees, the colors striking against the cobalt sky beyond. “Do you ever feel bad for not liking the life you lead, even though you know it’s the best possible life?”

     Phillip slid back into place, and he was more comfortable now, too. His chest fit comfortably against her back and he reached around her to take up the reins again. “Let’s go, Samson!” he said brightly and snap the reins. The stallion reared and took off, galloping at high speed for the show of it.

A bright smile lit up Belle’s features. She bit her bottom lip in excitement and held on firmly to Samson’s mane, just enough to stabilize her arms and keep her balanced. The wind blew through her hair, loosening a few locks from her ribbon and whipping them around her face. The countryside was so beautiful to explore, and Belle was all too eager to take in every last sun-kissed autumn leaf. This must be what heaven was like.

I can't remember if you're the one who did the Helsa fanart with Hans shirtless and Elsa in a blue shirt looking up at him, but the tumblr user notsoswaggy69 is claiming it as their own, and I thought you ought to know. If you scroll down a bit on the first page, you'll see it.

Yes! That is mine! Thank you very much for alerting me to this, kind anon.

As a warning to everyone else, notsoswaggy.tumblr.com cropped and put their own sig on my artwork, a piece that was a Christmas gift for a friend of mine, and claimed it as their own. They also said they’d be posting more artwork in a few days, so watch out. It might be yours!

My original artwork

Their stolen one

I have already reported it to Tumblr, flagging their blog as not following the Tumblr guidelines. Subsequently, they’ve been blocked from my page and won’t be able to find my art on here anymore. (Not to say they won’t see it on my dA page, but I’m on high alert now.)

Please be careful out there, folks.

UPDATE: Scrolling through their page, most of the drawings posted are Helsa related, so if you’re a Helsa artist, LOOK THROUGH THEIR PAGE FOR YOUR ART.

     Oh, thank goodness! She had some common sense! “If you’re afraid I’ll be offended, you’re mistaken, milady.” He reined Samson in and slid back, off the saddle altogether for the moment. “Feel free to get comfortable, Belle. We can get going again once you’re ready.”

     It was he who wasn’t comfortable right now, but it would be short lived. Well, he and Samson, who glared at him over his shoulder. He shot the horse a warning look behind Belle’s back.

[afunnybeauty]

“Thank you,” Belle responded humbly,sliding her foot into one of the stirrups. She lifted herself just enough that she could slide her leg over the saddle, and once she found footing in the other stirrup she tucked the hem of her dress under her to prevent it from flying up. “There!” she declared, settling back into the saddle. “That’s much better. We can go as fast you please, and we are free to go wherever you like!”

[onceuponadream-prince]

     Phillip slid back into place, and he was more comfortable now, too. His chest fit comfortably against her back and he reached around her to take up the reins again. “Let’s go, Samson!” he said brightly and snap the reins.

     The white horse tried to frown at her, but a stern look from Phillip made him nod agreeably instead. “Well, as soon as you’re ready, say the word,” he smiled.

     Samson broke into a casual, bouncy trot until they were past the last fence, and then he pushed a little faster. But only a little, because he could feel the annoying tension Phillip was putting on the reins.

     “Anywhere in particular you’d like to go, or shall we let the wind carry us?” he asked the young lady in front of him. He looked at her posture and frowned slightly. This wasn’t a sidesaddle, and he was sure that it couldn’t be horribly comfortable for her.

[afunnybeauty]

Clearing her throat, Belle shrugged and turned back to speak. “I have no preference, really. Wherever Samson decides is fine with me.”

After a few trots, a sharp pain began to shoot through Belle’s leg. If she had to continue sitting this way, it wouldn’t be an enjoyable trip for long. “Wait, please.” An uneasy frown spread across her lips, and an embarrassed flush covered her cheeks. “I’m sorry, Phillip. I’m afraid the only way I’ll be able to ride for a while is if I ride….well, like you…”

[onceuponadream-prince]

     Oh, thank goodness! She had some common sense! “If you’re afraid I’ll be offended, you’re mistaken, milady.” He reined Samson in and slid back, off the saddle altogether for the moment. “Feel free to get comfortable, Belle. We can get going again once you’re ready.”

     It was he who wasn’t comfortable right now, but it would be short lived. Well, he and Samson, who glared at him over his shoulder. He shot the horse a warning look behind Belle’s back.

“She is, indeed, most wondrous fair, Gold of sunshine in her hair, Lips that shame the red, red rose. In ageless sleep, she finds repose.”

     Satisfied that Belle was securely in the saddle, Phillip pulled himself up and settled behind her. “Comfortable?” he asked. He reached around her to take up the reins. “How fast do you like to go?”

     He urged Samson into a walk, not willing to run the townspeople over just to see that glint in Belle’s eye again.  The could speed up once they were clear of the city limits. It looked like there was a big, rolling country just beyond the gates.

[afunnybeauty]

“Yes, very. Thank you,” Belle answered, slightly lying. Side-saddle was the absolute worst, and certainly wasn’t practical. However, she wasn’t going to offend this knight of the court of some noble king by riding astraddle, where her dress might catch wind and make her improper. This idea influenced her next answer, much to her annoyance.

“I normally like to go a little fast,” she shrugged, looking back over her shoulder to him, “but I think since it’s been so long it might be a good idea to ease into it.” Turning back, she leaned her head over the side just a big, smiling. “Is that alright with you, Samson?”

[onceuponadream-prince]

     The white horse tried to frown at her, but a stern look from Phillip made him nod agreeably instead. “Well, as soon as you’re ready, say the word,” he smiled.

     Samson broke into a casual, bouncy trot until they were past the last fence, and then he pushed a little faster. But only a little, because he could feel the annoying tension Phillip was putting on the reins.

     “No payment necessary,” he smiled warmly, “but I would be grateful for the meal.” The simple food of commoners had a rusticness to it that he really enjoyed He was amazed with what they could do with so little, especially when compared to the rich food served the nobility. He was also endeared by the generosity of the common man. Where one might snatch up a coin at a moment’s notice, another would empty half of their only bowl of food to someone in greater need.

     “Come on!” He got to his own feet, light and energized by her excitement. “Do you know how to mount? Samson is very good with people we’ve been together since I was a boy, so he’s been ridden since he was big enough for it. Don’t let his spindly-looking legs fool you. He likes to go fast.”

[afunnybeauty]

Belle gave an emphatic nod, clasping her hands together. “Wonderful! I love riding on horseback, I can’t wait!”

It had been a while since she had mounted a horse, but surely it wouldn’t be too difficult since she’d done it before, right? Was she expected to ride side-saddle? She didn’t like the sound of that, but it seemed like the right answer when riding with a new friend. A light chuckle left her lips as she approached the horse, reaching out a gentle hand once again to pet his snout. “Thank you, Samson, for being so patient with me. I promise I’ll try my best to get it right.” 

She slipped her right foot into his left stirrup and used it to hoist herself into the saddle, crossing her left lego over her right as she settled. “There, that wasn’t so bad!” she laughed and pat Samson’s neck.

[onceuponadream-prince]

     Satisfied that Belle was securely in the saddle, Phillip pulled himself up and settled behind her. “Comfortable?” he asked. He reached around her to take up the reins. “How fast do you like to go?”
