The Ship That Never Sailed
Alright Prosers , since it’s February it’s time for another V day themed challenge! For all the fantasy match makers out there, what’s one ship that the authors got wrong? Explain why your ship would have been much better for the story than how it was written. [ Ex Deku and Froppy make a better couple because… Snow White ending up with Sleepy would have been a better fit and this is why…] It can be book, anime, movie, TV. series, game etc. So long as it’s fictional and it did not actually happen. Any writing style is acceptable. Be sure to include a spoiler warning especially if your pulling from a more recent media!

A New Dawn, A New Day, A New Life

Snow White had finally had enough of the dwarfs,

and she knew that the time had now come.

There was more to her than just keeping their house,

and dammit, she wanted to have a little fun!

She needed to dance, and to sing, and to drink,

away from the kitchen, and far from the sink.

. . . . . She needed to dance!

. . . . . She needed to dance,

despite what those seven little ingrates might think.

She took off her apron then ironed her dress

and gazed around at the nice tidy room.

They’d soon mess it up; she was thoroughly convinced

they’d never master the use of a broom!

She left them that day; she left them for good,

to seek out her dreams far beyond the dark woods.

. . . . . She left them that day,

. . . . . she left them that day,

and found more than she ever thought she would.

She longed for adventure, so she took a big risk,

but the prince that she met was a beast!

She found herself dancing in the wrong fairy tale,

but she didn’t really mind in the least.

She twirled and smiled; and though it wasn't planned,

the flames of true love deep within him she fanned.

. . . . . She twirled and smiled,

. . . . . she twirled and smiled,

and hoped dear sweet Belle would understand.

This neoclassical form is known as a TRIJAN REFRAIN. It is a great structure for telling stories, and though I have played a bit loose with the form's strict requirements, the result is still a lot of fun.

Supernatural Sam x Gabriel

Spoilers for entire series

Okay, bare with me here. When you think of Spn, you probably think of Destiel and the vaguely homophobic ending that made me kind of hate the show.

But what about the younger Winchester and the weird archangel dude? Sam and Gabe had peak relationship vibes, and should have at least kissed once.

First, the parallels. I will write something that can describe both of them.

The younger brother of a powerful and holy man, who was forced into the end of the world by God. Both die and come back, have trauma, and have watched their brothers die. They were tortured by demons but were eventually okay.

Also in season 13 was Gabe was all traumatized from being in Hell, who comforts him? Sam Freaking Winchester. "I need you Gabe." Man needing another man? Hmmm.

Plus in the earlier seasons, the tension was amazing. Being put in a timeloop is kinda ;).

Both of them also deserved better (permanent) deaths. Gabe dying randomly in the other world (season 13) just sucked and I thought he would come back. I was wrong.

Sam getting old with a party city wig then dying from oldness was pathetic.

Anyway they should have kissed, have a lovely day.
