Someone write these immediately, please. (or, if they already exist, tell me where to find them.)

I totally dig these, but please Tumblr, tell me how this isn’t cultural appropriation but everything else is?

actually, considering they’ve traced most fairy tales back thousands of years BCE and they’ve twisted and danced, but are still recognisable across the intervening millenia depending on who the cultural audience is……they’re a universal constant.  The one thing you actually can’t culturally appropriate, because they’re the same across all cultures.
