38. Has a roleplayer ever changed your view on a character? If so, how? Good or bad? For better or for worse?
((WOW, WHAT A QUESTION FOR YOU TO SEND IN, OF ALL PEOPLE. xD Cause I have to say, you are at the top of that list!
I think it’s pretty fair to say that most people who watch Frozen hate Hans. I had the movie spoiled for me before I ever saw it, so I knew that Hans was the bad guy all along. Because of that, I never really even got the chance to like him as a character up until the end of the movie like most people, because the entire time I knew he was going to do something bad—I didn’t know exactly what, but still, I knew it was coming.
To me, Hans was always just the fake, manipulative asshole that he’s revealed to be at the end of the movie—until I started talking to you.
You’ve made him so much more than that. Obviously I knew that he had his own reasons and motivations and such, but when I started roleplaying with you, that really became real. You made him a real person to me, not just the villain that people love to hate.
And now I love the Trash Prince too, so THANKS FOR THAT.

I adore all your muses, but in the context of this question, I’m going to talk about Madellaine in particular.
I’ll be honest and say that the Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 isn’t one of my favorite Disney sequels. It wasn’t that I disliked Madellaine, but to me she was always a “meh” character, someone who I didn’t love nor hate. I liked her with Quasimodo, but as a stand-alone character, she was just okay to me.
But you write her so well, and you’ve turned her into such a deep character! I never really thought about her terrible situation (being trapped in the circus, for all intents and purposes) and what her feelings would be about it, but you illustrate that so well in your writing that I’ve really come to appreciate her so much more as a character! You’ve made me connect with her and feel for her, which I think is so impressive.
ONE MORE: @whatyourheartmakes
Again I’ll say that Cinderella has never been in my favorites of the Disney Princesses. Obviously she’s a sweetheart, but she always seemed like too much of a sweetheart to the point where she was a bit two-dimensional in the movie.
But that is so not the case in the way you portray her! I love your Cinderella because not only is she kind and compassionate, but she also has a silly and fun side, too! She’s not a huge jokester, but she says little clever, goofy things that always make both Elsa and I smile. You’ve filled in so much of her personality that I felt was lacking in the movie through your writing. It’s one of the many things that I love about threading with you.
OKAY I WILL STOP GUSHING AT ALL MY LOVELIES, NOW. o3o Thanks for sending one in, bby! <3))
