Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Talespinner is a completed Labyrinth fanfiction that takes place after the movie and focuses on Sarah, Jareth, and an original plot that develops and complicates their relationship.What's a girl to do after she has won her baby brother back from the clutches of the Goblin King and resumed her mundane mortal life? Sarah's answer is to go to college and major in Mythology. Her parents don't really approve, and it inevitably seems just a tad dull compared to her adventure battling the machinations of Tall, Blonde, and Tight Leather Pants... but (true to form) when conflict and unpleasant realities begin to drag her down a certain someone can't help but show up and find new ways to bedevil her.The work spans twenty-five chapters and is paced appropriately, drawing from historical myth for new material without diminishing the significance of the characters and themes from Labyrinth itself. Fans hoping to see supporting characters from the movie will probably be disappointed, though; only Sarah and Jareth get screentime. Also, it's one of those rare fics that have been edited to grammatical perfection, if that's something you care about.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A sequel has been promised but has not yet seen the light of day. An alternate ending to the story is available — described as "much darker", it is called Love Without Your Heartbeat.

Dark Is Not Evil: Airgetlam wears dark clothing and has long, intimidating claws, but he is friendly to Sarah when they meet at the masquerade, and genuinely empathetic and helpful when they discuss Jareth as Airgetlam assists in her escape from the anchor chamber.

Arc Words: Exuberantly employed throughout the fic, using both callbacks to arc words from the movie, and some new ones.

Belligerent Sexual Tension: The verbal version of this is in play with a vengeance near the beginning of the story.

All Myths Are True: Not literally, but the power of stories is of great concern to the magical characters.
