notes

I am back with another short story! This idea has been digging into my mind lately, and to be quite honest, the story line is pretty confusing, but I'll explain everything at the end. I'm thrilled to work on this, considering there will be a Disney twist to it (excluding Anastasia, since she's not made by Disney). There will be a few Disney movie references here and there. Off the top of my mind, there's about 5, so I wonder if you're able to spot them!

This one-shot is not based off the movie of Anastasia. It's mainly just the song that inspired me, however I will be using a similar scene from the movie, but in my own way. If you have not seen or heard of Anastasia, it is a fantasy/drama film based off the real Princess Anastasia Romanov from Russia in the early 1900s. During a grand ball, an evil wizard summons a curse on the royal family. Anastasia manages to escape, as her palace is then destroyed, and her family members dead. Because the invasion happened when she was so young, Anastasia forgets everything (like how's she a princess).10 years passes by and two men (Dimitri and Vladimir) seek out to find her, in hearing that her grandmother is still alive and will reward those who will bring Anastasia back to her. This is just a very short summary to explain to you all the idea of it.

I hope this story turns out to be okay, since I'm having a few worries about it, but please stay tune!

If you haven't noticed, I get overly worked up w the past. childhood memories are the and Anastasia was just one of those highlights that I watched during typical stormy nights and at sleepovers <3 <3 gahhh just the best AND YES, THE SONG!!!! ONCE UPON A DECEMBER HELLLLO +++ at the beginning is still my most played song for five years now :') thank you for getting my nostalgia worked up this is going to be one hell of a sentimental ride

Chapter 1: I first thought it was going to be like a beauty and the beast au but then I realise no, I love your writing omg! Did Rosé maybe had a dopplegänger and is connected? Or will she travel through time maybe in the future and her dreams are past memories and she's lucid. I really love how this one shot let the reader's imagination run free!

Chapter 1: Wow, this was just genius. Such creativity and a piece of art. How’d you manage to write such a beauty? I was completely taken in by all my favourite fairytales that you incorporated in here - it’s amazing how they all fit and fall into place even though they’re inspired by different stories. It proves your capability as a writer and that’s honestly something commendable - and it’s rare to get a fic as unique as this. Thank you for making jaerosé even more beautiful than they already are <3

Chapter 1: Oh my wow, your vocabulary in it, so peculiar and vibrant! I really really liked the descriptions especially in the beginning, the way you painted the whole scenery in front of us, it left me in awe, I really liked that and I got this Disney/fairytale vibe which is great because I freaking love those. It was like losing myself into a different world while I read it. Oh and the twist in the end was great, I loved the bittersweet ending and the whole mystery lingering through the story. Also, I enjoyed reading about the references of other stories, it was a really well-written story so I really liked reading this! ^^

Chapter 1: After reading several stories written by you, I was sure that this one would be another masterpiece. I wasn't mistaken though. This is literally art, the way you form words and describe places and actions is mind-blowing. You have such a wide vocabulary, my jaw drops every time I read your updates. Not to mention the idea which is really unique and lovely. I've always been a fan of fairytales, so I'm absolutely loving this theme. I sensed a bit of Beauty and the Beast, Anastasia and Snow White in this chapter and I hope my assumptions are correct. ^^ I especially liked the cameo of the boys from NCT Dream but Taeil and Doyoung were also hilarious. I was fond of the reference with the rose and the shoes, too. *-*
All in all, you've done an amazing job and I seriously can't wait to read more! Take care! <3

Chapter 1: I am so impressed with this concept. It's creative and original and there's nothing I can appreciate more than this. The way you've incorporated rich, vivid vocabulary along with your elaborate description of the setting and the atmosphere made it so easy to depict what was happening in my mind. You've improved so much as a writer and I am extremely proud of you kimchi. I'm so happy that you've continued your journey as a writer and will always be anticipating for what's next to come. P.S. Although I don't know much about NCT, I sensed the lowkey crack and can't help but say it's another positive attribute to the story. P.P.S LOVE YA ❤️
