Fun Fairytale Facts time:
- in the original story, the prince and snow white have never met before when he finds her, and he has no idea she’s potentially still alive or could be revived. he just sees a pretty corpse and is like “i Need that”
- he does not revive her with a magic kiss, the apple piece just sorta gets shaken loose and she gets up like “woah what’s going on” (they do still get married, though)
- it also was mentioned at the beginning of the story that snow white was seven years old when she was spared by the huntsman. it’s unclear how much time has passed since then but presumably not that much
- the queen also EATS the pig heart, which she believes to be snow white’s heart. it’s not even a “trying to gain eternal youth” thing or anything. she just does it
- she has two failed murder attempts before the poison apple - she tries to suffocate snow white to death by lacing her bodice up really really tightly (but the dwarves find her and cut her lose) and then combs her hair with a poisoned comb (which, somehow, works immediately on contact with her hair, but the dwarves find it and remove it)
- cinderella does not have a fairy godmother, just a magic bird. she also only has bird friends, not mice, and attends several dances at the palace and spends the whole time with the prince for all of them
- she also has golden slippers, not glass, and the prince specifically caused her to lose her shoe
(also cinderella’s father is still around and just, like, isn’t doing anything about his new wife abusing his daughter)
- this bit is getting to be more well-known now but the stepsisters (who happen to be described as beautiful, but ugly on the inside) mutilate their feet to force them to fit into the slipper, which almost works until the prince notices all the blood they’re tracking everywhere, so that shoe was absolutely full of blood when cinderella finally gets it back
- both of them also get their eyes pecked out by doves at cinderella’s wedding
- following in the tradition of wedding day violent revenge, the evil queen is forced to dance at snow white’s wedding in red-hot iron shoes until she fucking dies. the end
