all these urban legends and folk stories of children with all-black eyes are like "THE CHILD SPOKE IN A STRANGE CADENCE!!!!!" with no other details listed, and like,
i guess those folks in those stories just couldn't handle running into an autistic kid with weird eyes at night idk #skill_issue #weaksauce
but if *I* hear a child crying or screaming in the woods at night, i am going into the goddamn woods. I'm really really not gonna like it. But I'm gonna do it.
and if I DO find a child in the woods, and then they look up at me, and they turn out to have demon eyes, WELL GUESS WHAT, BUDDY?!? THAT'S STILL A CHILD.
So unless they change form or like, reveal through dark magics that they are thousands of years old, then that. is. a. bab. And I don't care if it is a fairy baby or a monster baby or a ghost baby! A bab is a bab!
and if trying to return a child to a safe place gets me eaten, THEN SO BE IT. I would rather die young than grow old knowing I allowed my fear of a child with traits I don't understand to cause me to ignore the cries of a kid who might have needed my help!
#blacked-eyed kids#folk stories#cryptids#original#writing prompt#urban legends#if anyone wants to give it a shot as a short story. i might do it also. but - ya know - two cakes!#this is partly inspired by that lovely changeling story on tumblr in which a human mother chooses to#raise both her biological child and her changeling child with equal amounts of love and care without question#but also it is quite literally what I would do. i am not a guy who believes in ghost stories (until it is dark and spooky and i am outside)#but if i find myself in one then i have one resolve and it is to be as kind and as human as possible the whole time#and also if a ghost IS an ancient evil ghost and kills me guess who is devoting his whole eternity of afterlife into KICKING THEIR ASS?#But yeah i would rather risk death than risk hurting a child i mean goodness gracious. nothing is more worth protecting than a child.#IT'S ME BABY#< op tags#this reminds me of that post where the mom invades the fairy realm and gets to keep both her AND the changeling

and yes, Elsa and Anna are not official Disney princesses, that's a merchandising line and Frozen was popular enough to get its own merchandising line
weirdly, Tinkerbell, Jane, and Esmeralda did used to be part of the official line

just encountered a spider so big I very seriously considered downloading tinder exclusively to find a man to come over and move it outside

I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache
life just goes on no matter what

Seeing how 'Wish' is supposed to be a celebration of a century of Disney that's chock full of homages and nods to their past films, no matter what happens in the film, there's really only one suitable end for King Magnifico:
(source Buzzfeed)
I'm just saying....
It's a tradition!
