Something is wrong with me because Tinker-momma is creeping up on me.
I give you, Screwball Ninja’s Tinker Momma essay… http://screwballninja.tumblr.com/post/64411953254/tinkerbell-is-related-to-whom-rampant
It includes a summary of the version of Beauty and the Beast where Belle is half fairy, (and a link to the whole story, which I haven’t read yet), and even character comparisons between Tink and Belle/Lacey, and God help me I know it’s still crack, but I can’t help but think that it kinda sorta makes perfect sense.
