Been awhile since I posted anything here! I recently wrote a short bit of something or other as a writing style experiment, so I decided to share. Not that anyone cares lol. Once upon a time, there was a young princess in a town. She was in a town because reasons. And because, if she stepped foot inside her castle, she would be instantly smote by the evil enchanter who had taken up residence there. So, the princess stayed in town.
Now, when I say young, I mean young like late teens young. Not an adult, not a kid anymore, it's an awkward time. So I just call her "young". But anyway, she's just old enough to like boys. Yeah, she's at that stage. The teenager stage. Like I said, awkward time. It's also important to note that just because she's a princess doesn't mean she's some sort of beautiful goddess. She still had acne and awkward fashion sense and emotional instability. So boys didn't like her for her looks so much, although maybe that's a good thing. But the not-good thing is that they did like her for her title. A princess with acne was better than a peasant without, I suppose, but then again all the teenagers in the town had acne too, so there wasn't much of a choice so far as clear faces go. Except for Alexandria. She got cursed by the enchanter to become a fox, so I suppose her face is all right, although not entirely human. But anyway, boys liked the princess because she was a princess, or they didn't like her at all, or they thought of her as a friend. But she liked boys, and wanted them to like her for who she was, even if she did have a red spot on her cheek. Or two red spots. Or even a set of freckles' worth of spots. Now, I know you're all thinking this: sure, she likes boys in general, but who's the ONE boy? Who's the cruusshh?? Well, I'm not telling you. She told me not to. These things are secrets, you know. (I'll give you a hint, though: he's not one of the village boys.) You're also probably wondering where her parents are. Well, the enchanter got 'em. It was too bad for them, but he turned them into foxes too, and it looks like Alexandria is okay, so hopefully they are. Someone should really do something about that enchanter guy, or the princess might end up marrying one of the village boys once she gets over her crush on- that other guy, and who knows what kind of king a village boy would make? Although I suppose if the enchanter's still there by then, he won't get to be king anyway. He'll just be married to a princess who got kicked out of her own castle. If you leave out the last part, though, that's still pretty cool. But anyway, that's the whole princess situation. More on that later, I suppose.
