Introducing Downal Wyth Bluddy Clichés!
May. 5th, 2011 01:08 pmSo what kind of crazy-mad-wonderful idea has Manny gotten herself browbeaten by now?
Well, I'm glad you asked!
I had the thought (a while back) that I would try to prompt, promote, and populate the Alice in Wonderland universe with interesting, thoughtful stories by providing prompts that deal with (directly or indirectly) common clichés in the fandom.
For more information on exactly what Downal Wyth Bluddy Clichés is, check out the general information page HERE.
This week, the cliché I would like to address is...
Mally is jealous of Alice because Mally is in love with the Hatter.
Yes, yes, I know this was hinted at quite strongly in the original screenplay by Linda Woolverton (which can be found by searching the database HERE) but I rather like stories that provide alternate interpretations for Mally's less-than-friendly welcome of Alice to Underland.
So, if you know of a story or if this prompt inspires you to write a fic/doodle a fanart/compose a fanvid/compile a fanmix/etc. that provides an alternate explanation for Mally's sometimes-blatant rudeness towards Alice in Tim Burton's film, please share!
I'll start us off with a recommendation of my own.
To post either a recommendation or your own prompt-inspired work, please comment below, including the following information (if applicable):
Title: I think this is pretty self-explanatory.
Author/Artist/Creator Name: Please use this if you are posting for someone else or recommending someone else's story!
Media: Fic / Art / Fanmix / etc.
Worksafe: Yes / No
Rating: K / K+ / T / M / M+
Warnings: Violence, Sex, Non-consensual Sex, and other Objectionable material
File size: 1,000 words / 2 MB / etc.
Summary/Notes: Tell us a little more about your contribution or recommendation!
Link to story: Or link to the author's homepage
Comments: Why are you recommending this to others? Or your general impressions of it are fine, too.
Again, you do not need to include all of these, but the more information the better! (^__~)b

EDIT: Discussion is also welcome! (Not just fan works.) (^__^)
