The retcon of Maleficent as Aurora's maternal figure hits me really hard because in the 1959 disney film Malefocent said "beloved by all who know her" which should have affected Maleficent as well. More adaptations could take liberty with the gifts from Fairies or wise women because they were very vague. The original film was pulling from the Perrault and Grimm versions, While I believe the Maleficent movie referenced a modern ideal of "health and happiness" that was not present in the Perrault or Grimm versions. In the Grimm version one of the twelve fairies (actually wise women in this version) bestowed virtue, beauty, riches, and whatever there is in the world to wish for. The gift of health and happiness was added in contemprary editions of Sleeping Beauty that I could only find in school materials.

Using the logic of the original movie to create a twist was very fulfilling and provided enough material for a new film. Ultimately making Aurora's biggest opposition her greatest protector.

Getting back home.

Have you noticed that I do a lot of these "montage-y" pages? I don't know why I planned this project this way, but I think it's got a lot to do with the fact that I generally prefer to use fewer words wherever possible in my own writing. And then I plan them out and kick myself over all the drawing I have to do! (I love drawing, though).

Bobbie’s encounter with the Project Caliban protomolecule monster on Ganymede, for example.  In the books when she’s being question by her superiors after the event one of the first things she says is that there was some sort of monster there that attacked her troops and the UN forces both.  When her superiors are skeptical she tells them how to access her suit’s camera footage, they do so, and in the same conversation they come back and apologize for doubting her and they all say “What the fuck is this?”

In the TV series, she’s so disoriented and traumatized that it takes days and multiple interrogation sessions (Plus mind-enhancing drugs) before she can remember the events, and her superiors instantly dismiss the story and order her not to mention this to anybody because they’re part of the cover-up conspiracy.  Her suit’s video footage is unrecoverable (Whether it’s actually damaged or is being suppressed it not made clear).  She has to defy orders and defect to the UN in order to investigate what really happened.

Or Holden seeing Ghost!Miller.  In the TV series he spends episodes keeping it quiet, not wanting to be thought of as insane or hallucinating.  In the books he apparently told his crew the details as soon as it started happening, and he is also quick to tell everybody else as well when he needs to explain where he got certain information.

A genus of deaf moth has evolved to develop an extraordinary sound-producing structure in its wings to evade its primary predator the bat. The finding, made by researchers from the University of Bristol and Natural History Museum, is described in Scientific Reports today.

It's already known that some species of moth have evolved a range of defensive mechanisms to evade insectivorous bats' highly-tuned echolocation (biosonar) detection skills. The discovery of a wingbeat-powered sound producing structure in the wings of a deaf moth is completely new.

Many larger species of moth use ears tuned to detect the echolocation calls of bats to provide an early warning of approaching bats allowing them to perform evasive manoeuvres. While others, such as some silk moths, have hindwing tails that produce salient echoes which act as false targets to bats—like the towed decoys fighter planes use against radar guided missiles.

The team of researchers from Bristol's School of Biological Sciences and the Natural History Museum, London, were studying a group of smaller British moths known as the small ermine moths (Yponomeuta species), and discovered that despite their lack of hearing they were making continual clicking sounds whenever they fly. Unlike other species of moths, that produce sound in response to detecting an approaching bat, small ermine moths have evolved to produce continual warning sounds.
