Yuletide Fandom: CinderFella

[thefourthvine]

Okay, so after my mistaken public posting earlier today, several people led me to an epiphany, which goes like this: why not share my list of Yuletide fandom links? Maybe people will be swayed and nominate them! Or swayed and WRITE them! Or, you know, just squee with me, so I have joy to tide me over until actual Yuletide.

So here's another one. Everyone I've shown this to has had roughly the same reaction, which goes like this:

1. I - am not sure I can stand this. Do I really have to watch ALL SIX MINUTES?
   
2. Things are looking up! Maybe it won't be torture!
   
3. OH MY GOD THAT IS THE GREATEST.
   
4. No. No, I was wrong, because this is clearly the greatest.
   
5. WRONG AGAIN. That's for SURE the greatest.
   
6. Ahahahahahaha.
   
7. Awwwwwwwww.
   
8. ...It's over? And I can't even buy the music? Suuuuuuuuuck. Better watch it again, I guess.

My point is, it is really important to muscle through the initial part, which is a little hard to take if you aren't a fan of wistfulness, to get to the parts that are the greatest. And I don't want to spoil it for you, so I'm going to link here and then discuss for a bit. Ready? Watch the WHOLE THING.

There. If that didn't make you happy, I don't even want to know, because it makes me really, really happy. And I knew as soon as I saw it that it would be a Yuletide fandom for me, because I would take any story in this fandom. The main pairing, obviously - I want to know their happily ever after, because I am seriously invested in it. The princesses, oh hell yes, I want to know all about that - every detail, if you will. The fairy godmother! I want to know what she does on her days off. Anything. Anything at all.

My only real complaint here is that as far as I know I can't actually buy the music. But everything else is glorious.
