Synopsis

Most people grew up hearing fairy tales and fables. They’re such a part of our cultures that Cinderella has a two-part definition in the Oxford Dictionary, and if someone name-drops Robin Hood everyone instantly knows what they mean. These stories have been told and re-told for literally. In some cases millenniums.
So I’m gonna tell them again. Not to “update” them, or because I think I can improve them, but just because I can. Why not.
And fair warning: the style of these retellings will be “ditzy catgirl with attention-span problems”. I’m not taking these tales seriously, I’m just having fun.
Most of these stories will be from HC Andersen, Grimm Bros, or Arabian Nights, because those are the ones I’m most familiar with. If anyone has a specific story they think needs more love, let me know and I’ll try to include it!
Back when these tales were first penned, “word count” was a foreign concept. So chapter length will probably vary wildly. Sorry.
