Then let's skip ahead, Daring wasn't your true love's kiss, so who did wake you up?

onebadapple: (So dopey!)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
Oh! Then perhaps nothing is wrong!

Date: 2017-08-20 10:45 am (UTC)
onebadapple: (Now what should I do?)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
Is it to be woken up by Daring, or is it to be woken up by your true love?

And before you say those are one and the same, think very carefully about the destiny in question.

onebadapple: (Do as I say)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
Ah ah ah ah. No avoiding the question.

Apple, what does your destiny say. Is it true love's kiss, or Daring's kiss?

From: [personal profile] onebadapple
No, Apple. True Love, even by the decree of destiny, cannot be forced. I'm not saying you don't love him, Apple, and Im sure he loves you too.

But he isn't your true love, and trying to force him to be, trying to force yourself to make him be, will only hurt the both of you in the end. If you still wish to marry him, that is your choice, but you can't do it because you're pretending he's your true love.

True love can't lie, Apple. That's why it breaks every curse.

Even ones about destiny, those curses are broken too when it comes to True Love. That's why it's so feared, because it's just so powerful.

True Love cannot be forced and it cannot be misguided, by anything.

[She pushed back some of Apple's hair from her face and smiled.]

True love can happen over time, love at first sight and true love are not always the same, mind you, but it's not something that can be forced or faked, and it certainly can't be stopped. True love can break any curse, Apple, even my stepmother's.

That doesn't mean you can't love Daring, if that's what you want, but you're both hurting yourselves trying to pretend that it's destiny making you be true loves.

It's alright if Daring didn't awaken you with true love's kiss, if your heart, not some plan about destiny, is why you want to marry him. [She knew something would get through to Apple, and thankfully it was true love.]

But if your heart doesn't love him like that now, Apple, marrying him now to love him later is the cruelest thing you can do to yourselves.

It's time to really think about what your heart says, not what destiny tells you.

onebadapple: (I'll always remember your kindness)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
[Snow White doesn't cry because Snow White had no one to soothe her when she did. Snow White didn't make a fuss, because fusses did not get the castle clean and the chore list done, an incomplete chore list meant she didn't get to eat. Snow White couldn't inconvenience people because they pretended she didn't exist.

Snow White was not perfect.

She was unable to allow people to help her because for many years, so many didn't. She was always surprised when people never put a price tag to their own acts of kindness because while hers were free, people always came with a cost if they were kind at all. She didn't know how to even ask for help. She trusted animals more than she trusted people.

So no. She was not perfect.

Even now, she was at a real loss on how to be a mother and could only think of what she'd LIKE a mother to be.

But she did know one thing.

Apple White would not be forced to push down everything, to not cry, to always smile with her, because she had every intention of being there for Apple.

She moved quickly and gathered Apple up into her arms, hugging her tight and rubbing her back. Letting her cry, letting her shake, just holding her. She couldn't tell Apple it would be alright, because she didn't understand this whole "destiny" thing that Apple was so sure of. But, she did know she would speak with that headmaster if he ever showed up here.

I know, I know... and you have every right to be scared when it's your very life and the life of everyone you love that you fear for.

[She pressed kisses to Apple's brow and cheeks.]

My poor Apple, you've been carrying this inside of you for who knows how long.

Date: 2017-08-24 12:17 am (UTC)
onebadapple: (You poor thing!)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
I've got you, and I'm not letting go.

[She rocks her back and forth, never once telling Apple that it would be alright, never once telling her to shush.]

onebadapple: (I'll always remember your kindness)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
There is nothing to apologize for. [She smiled, pulling one of the napkins from the tray and offering it to Apple.]

And it sounds like you needed it more than you know.

Date: 2017-08-26 03:17 am (UTC)
onebadapple: (Perk up now!)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
Well, that's alright. Even if you didn't feel any better, that's alright too. Because I will be here for you no matter how you feel, good or bad.

Date: 2017-08-27 05:19 am (UTC)
onebadapple: (Oh how strange)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
I love you too.

I don't think you know just how truly and honestly happy I am to have family here, to have you be my family. [She held Apple's cheek and then pressed a kiss to her brow.]

And I'm glad to hear that you think I'm a good mother, because I'll be honest, I worry quite a bit that I'm doing something wrong and sometimes I'm just trying to think about what I would have wanted my mother to say and go by that.

But knowing I'm a good mother, that's the most important thing I've ever heard, and all I've wanted to hear.

onebadapple: (Well this is all so new!)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
How could I not be proud of you? [She smiled.] Simply because we don't always see eye-to-eye on matters doesn't mean I'm not proud of you, Apple. You're hardworking, honest, dedicated, kind, eager to help, always trying your very best, and incredibly smart.

I will always be proud of you, even if I may not always agree with you, I will always love you.

Date: 2017-08-29 06:28 am (UTC)
onebadapple: (Promise not to tell?)
From: [personal profile] onebadapple
You're quite welcome, Apple.

And, it was easy to forget, growing up when you have only yourself to remind you, though my bucket prince always offered his silent support. [She offered honestly, since she wanted Apple to see that she wasn't perfect and she had her own insecurities too.]

And Apple, if you ever decide that you rather be something else, I will try my very best to support you.
