The Frog Dialogues

Description

Princess Baekha's attempts to learn elementary magic nearly a dozen years later than the usual age become the least of her worries when a talking frog comes along demanding a kiss from her.

(Formerly titled "Amphibios." I think the new title suits the tone of the story better.)

Foreword

This is my entry for the Beyond Infinity Writing Contest, inspired by the fairy tale of The Frog Prince and the contest prompt “Lingering around you, I feel like a beggar” (from the lyrics of Before the Dawn).

Chapter 1: Well that was entertaining. ^^ Yeol has lived up to his name. I can't imagine him speaking formally and being forced to act 'princely'. Also, I think I'm really enjoying how you name your OCs. The name always melds in well with the rest of the story.

Chapter 1: I guess I'm going to make you aware of everything I've read as a ghost. This is another. I love our sassy prince and princess and absolutely still cringe when I think about the real Princess and the Frog. (Throw the frog prince against the wall for transformation? The princess was terrible!)

Chapter 1: This was such a fun and light-hearted read! The fairy tale elements were recognizable, but in no way a constraint on your retelling. The spin with the princess doing magic and the details of Sunggyu's potentially bloody magic tower were just >u< (because what was he conjuring with THAT? LOL) Also Sungyeol taunting the witch, LOL, sounds exactly like something he'd do! The un-princely/princess-y (shall we pretend that's an actual word OuO;;) pair is simply perfect for each other!

It's good.. I laughed how Sungyeol croaked/yelled at Baekha that he was a human. I like Baekha's personality, it was realistic and unique enough for a female lead. I noticed she got close with frog Sungyeol little by little and the part she agreed for the kiss was quite surprising. I wouldn't mind who the male lead in this story since it is pretty fun reading. Good job! :)
