Do you know someone helplessly stuck in a stressful job with no hobbies except for t.v. watching and barely any personality?

    This was interesting to hear. The version of the story I've known was that the queen was told to eat two onions to conceive twins, but she had to ba sure to peel them first. The queen was so eager to have a child, that she forgot to peel the first onion, but took the time to peel the second. This in turn correlated to when the maiden requested the lindworm to strip layers of his skin, cause it was like peeling off those onion layers the queen neglected to take off herself

Also instead of whipping the lindworm after the shedding of the skins the shepherdess had to tackle the lump of flesh that was left of the lindworm and scrub it harshly with water and a bar of soap until the lump of flesh was completely gone and the prince's human body was revealed. This apparently took all night, and by morning the girl had scrubbed away all the lindworm flesh. The two brides before the shepherdess were not princesses but peasant girls from the kingdom.

    The version of this story that I read was slightly different: instead of two flowers, there would be two onions. The onions were exactly the same and did not decide the gender of the child, but the witch warned the queen to peel the onions before eating them. The first child was born a lindworm because the queen only remembered the advice after she'd already eaten one of the onions unpeeled.
    Another difference was that all of the brides were random peasant girls. The last one was actually volunteered for the marriage by her evil stepmom, who hoped she'd get eaten.
    A third little difference was that he wasn't whipped after shedding skins, but scrubbed with lye & brushes.
    It's fun to compare how fairytales evolved and how versions can vary!

    I assume the first rose prepped the queen's oven for boy shaped buns. The second rose just failed and turned into a vague magical mass. I also assume that when a witch tells you not to do something, it because of highly complicated magical reasons that are similar to the install instructions on a skyrim mod.

      Ironically, the true love's kiss is mostly a Disney thing, it is surprisingly uncommon in the traditional fairy tales (although love having something to do with breaking a curse is a common trope, but it is hardly ever a kiss that will do the trick). In the Grimm's Fairy Tales version of the frog king, the frog is not changed back into a human by a true love's kiss, but actually by her picking him up and throwing him against a wall when the princess finally can't take it anymore after reluctantly putting up with the deal having him as a companion in return for him getting her golden ball back from the bottom of the well. In Snowwhite and the seven dwarfs, the prince doesn't kiss the poisoned Snowwhite, but begs the dwarfs to let him take the glass coffin with Snowwhite with him so that he can at least look at her. When he transports her to his home castle, the coffin slips and falls of the horse, which knocks the bite of cursed poison apple out of her mouth and brings her back to life. Really the only traditional fairy tale that actually has the kiss trope is Dornröschen (Sleeping Beauty), and I'm not sure whether we can call this one a true loves kiss, since the curse has been lasting for 100 years and the prince who kisses her has just seen her for the first time.

      I think the lindworm is a trans woman. This would explain her being amab, and we can assume that she transitions after the story is over. I do partially want this to be the case because the way that the lindworm is made human reminds me of Contrapoints, but I digress.

There are a lot of stories where a royal baby is going to be kidnapped by a supernatural creature so they swap it with a peasant baby who gets taken instead and the story doesn't remark on the "expendable" baby's fate. My favorite is the rare aversion (an Estonian tale called The Grateful Prince) where the prince grows up, finds out his parents swapped him with a peasant girl, and is like "you did WHAT? I'm getting her back from the weird forest imp guy, her family probably misses her!" and then goes to rescue the supposedly expendable person. He rescues her, she rescues him, they get married, it's super sweet.
