so what won me over was the reveal that the prior events were essentially a fantasy in mrs fairytales head, that she was in a hospital against her will, but that her lover, emerald, was real. one of the first things real emerald/esmerelda does is correct a well meaning nurse when he misgenders fairytale. that made me so emotional. like fuck. her wife is real and she loves her so much. and she and the nurse were there to essentially break fairytale out and live a life with her, free on the outside. yes the nurse/attendant joined them too lmfao.

fuck its so sweet... it reminds me of arthur of course. we dont know why fairytale was in the hospital. maybe it was for being trans. she could have been mentally ill. but theyre both silly and romantic and get lost in their fantasies and have a difficult relationship with their mothers.

i love mrs fairytale... i might have to draw her. and emerald
