Todd and Blair Shipping Challenge - Day 19 "Beauty and the Beast" (can I just say how the ^^^ pictures are so perfectly identified with each character? They even look like them!!!) - okay, let's get started... 'OLTL 1995' Addie: "Todd, wait. You're like the prince and the beast." Blair: "Mama, be nice." Todd: "No, it's okay. What are you talking about, Addie?" Addie: "The beast was ugly and mean-looking and then Beauty loved him and he turned into a prince. Don't you know any fairy tales?" Todd: "No, not really." Addie: "That's you. I thought you were scary and ugly but you're not. You love my beautiful girl and you'll never let anybody hurt her, will you?" Todd: "Never. And you're right about her being Beauty. She's the one beautiful thing in this ugly world." 'OLTL' 2001 Todd: "I can paint the entire ceiling of the penthouse any scene that you want." Starr: "Beauty and the Beast and you and mommy can pose for it." 'OLTL' 2011 Todd: "Belle looked at Beast and even though he was big and hairy and smelly and kinda ugly, she could tell that there was really something, deep down, really good about him. And so she fell in love with him... and that kind of love, Hope, that kind of love lasts forever." --- - so perfect AND let's just talk fairy tales for a second... 'OLTL' 2001 Todd: "Starr thinks that you love me." Blair: "I know. She's seven. She still believes in fairy tales." Todd: "So when do you outgrow a fairy tale?" 'OLTL' 2011 Blair: "I thought fairy tales were supposed to have happy endings." Todd: "Who says this one's over?" --- - can they be anymore perfect? Nope. These two tortured souls endlessly chasing their fairy tale in each-other. *sigh* They're just so tragically beautiful and so beautifully tragic. Anyway, I love how Beauty and the Beast is their parallel. Yes, TnB's, not another couple no matter how much they might wish it. That is TnB and this is the proof. Blair's love did transform Todd and the love that they have is too unique for the soap world, it's gotta be a fairy tale. Why? Because they are magic. Don't believe me? Just ask Erika Slezak.
