you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling?

This article on Clarice Starling makes me want to rewatch Silence of the Lambs and also drives home howthe repeated deaths of smart, clever women on Hannibal is a betrayal of a core value of its progenitor.

If the entertainment industry can't give me f/f, I wish they'd at least let the female antagonist live once in a while just so I can delude myself into believing there's the possibility of her getting to live happily ever after. :/

I was on a general fairytale kick a while back and hunted through AO3 for that dynamic - there was one or two fics I enjoyed, and argh, it's now killing me that I can't find this one in particular that I enjoyed which was based loosely on Sleeping Beauty, so an AU take on Aurora/Maleficent. I might have to drag out all my various and sundry external hard drives to see if I saved it anywhere, 'coz I've gone through the tag now and cannot find it. Aww, sad to discover it wasn't actually shippy, as I thought - I combined two different fics in my head, lolwhoops. Fail, self, utter fail.

(ngl, I plan to see the new movie in May just for any ship fodder it cares to provide, IDEC if I'm watching it wrong, that is my plan)

Right? That would make SUCH a nice change.

I tried to tell myself I wasn't going to watch this opening week, but it's a lie, I totally am.
