Forever After is an on-going comedy webcomic written by Violet Matter and with art by Hannah Patten.It tells the story of princess-obsessed Robin, who longs for nothing more than a classic fairy tale life, with a rich Prince Charming whose wealth will allow her to live her life in luxury. Against all odds, her wish gets partially fulfilled: On her eighteenth birthday, she is magically transported to Forever After, a fantastical land where fairy tales come true. Only she's not the princess. She's Prince Charming. And the Fates have declared that she must bring every single fairy tale to it's happily ever after - or die trying.The comic serves mostly as a Deconstruction of the typical Disney-fied fairy tales, as well as the concept of Princess Classics and other lesser known fairy tales across the world. Robin's journey is primarily a punishment dealt to her by the Fates to make her re-think her stance on the aforementioned topics and to force her to learn to have ambitions, be more independent, and empathetic towards others. The comic also delves into themes regarding growing up, escapism as well as overcoming the many challenges of life such as grief and failure. And slowly calls into question the grey morality of the system Forever After is governed by and how the characters within the world are to be treated.The webcomic is available for free on Webtoons here. | |

True Love's Kiss | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_1777836c | comment |
True Love's Kiss: Subverted. Tank urges Robin to try this to wake up a poisoned Snow White, claiming that he saw the movie and knows how this works. Robin is squicked out by this, pointing out the Questionable Consent of the situation, then adds that the original fairy tale didn't utilize a kiss to awaken Snow White, but had the dwarfs accidentally make her cough the poisoned apple back up. She then promptly replicates the story by cutting off the legs of the table Snow White was lying on, causing her to fall down and knocking the apple out of her throat. In episode 11, it was Tank's tears that cure Robin of the blindness curse, instead of Rapunzel's. Briar Rose's curse is not lifted by being kissed, but instead by Robin convincing Hira to disspell it. | |

Also invoked indirectly by the Wicked Witch, when he brings Urikohime into Momotaro as a hostage. After they free her, both Robin and Lea agree that giving Urikohime a happy ending with Momotaro would be a lot nicer than returning her to her own story, which doesn't end quite as happily for her. | |

Bloodier and Gorier: The final battle in Momotaro is a lot more brutal than anything the comic depicted before. For one, there's gratuitous amounts of actual blood and a lot of on-panel dismemberment, Eye Scream and even decapitation. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: When first meeting the Wicked Witch, Robin assumes he can't harm her, because then the fairy tale would end prematurely and that isn't how stories work. This blatantly overlooks that the Wicked Witch has already been established as someone who cares nothing for the rules of fairy tales, seeing as the previous Prince Charmings all ended up dying because he sabotaged them beyond what fairy tale-villains usually do. Zig-zagged with Tank. He knows a lot about Forever After itself to avoid obvious pitfalls, like giving away your full name, but his fairy tale knowledge is pretty much limited to Disney-movies. In Sleeping Beauty this led him to assume the titular princess could be woken up with a kiss and in Rapunzel he thought the prince in the story was a wanted criminal. A frequent problem for Lea is her not knowing the fairy tales she's sent to apart from their often inaccurate Disney-adaptations. In Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp she wastes time looking for Princess Jasmine until Hook sends her on the right path. | |

Funny Background Event: Whenever Robin is brought to the Fates' meadow, she in some way badly inconveniences the little fairies living there, without even noticing. By episode 25 the fairies have officially had enough and spend the majority of the episode attacking Robin while the other heroes discuss their next moves. | |

Beauty Equals Goodness / Evil Makes You Ugly: Discussed in-story. During Sleeping Beauty's baby shower, Robin and Tank have a conversation about how in fairy tales, the good guys are always stunningly beautiful, while the bad guys are hideous and whether it's evilness that makes you ugly, or if it's the rejection based purely on one's appearance that drives a person into villainy. | |

The Bad Guy Wins | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_2e8441c9 | comment |
The Bad Guy Wins: Due to all previous Prince Charmings before Robin dying, all fairytale villains end up winning. Temporarily, at least. Robin and Tank are unable to keep Briar from activating his curse, which leads to the castle being overgrown by brambles and all of its inhabitants falling into a deep slumber. Robin and Tank are forced to retreat and wait a hundred years before they can continue the fairy tale. | |

Kick the Dog: In true villain-fashion, the Wicked Witch is always there to give unneeded mean commentary whenever Robin experiences a low point in her journey. And every time he flat-out admits he has no reason for this other than his personal amusement. | |

| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_3d2c6d30 | comment |
Skewed Priorities: Swears and nudity are forbidden in Forever After and get forcibly censored every time they pop up. But painfully dying of poison and getting eaten by a wolf; gore, blood and everything along with it, is apparently G-Rated enough to get a pass. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The previous Prince Charmings all tried to wake a poisoned Snow White up via the well-known Disney-way: by kissing her. They all immediately died from poisoning too. Tank even admits that kissing someone who ingested deadly poison might not be such a good idea after all. Since Sleeping Beauty’s parents burned all the spinning wheels in the kingdom to avoid the curse, the price of linen has gone impossibly high, and their textile trade is even worse, if the Thirteenth Wise Woman laughing over it is anything to go by. | |

Heroes Prefer Swords: The standard weapon for Prince Charmings is a special sword fitting up to their personality. Robin's sword is an elegant Royal Rapier, matching up to her desire to be an elegant princess. Tank on the other hand had a large broadsword, matching up to his strong personality. Lea has a Pira Cotabato | |

Adaptational Alternate Ending | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_4a5fcde | comment |
Adaptational Alternate Ending: Invoked by Robin and Tank for The Little Mermaid. They defy the prewritten original Downer Ending and convince Aurelia to not make a deal with the Sea Witch, instead teaching her to channel her love for the human world by traveling and learning about it and humans from the waters, then teaching her family about humans, using her newfound knowledge to help her people. Also invoked indirectly by the Wicked Witch, when he brings Urikohime into Momotaro as a hostage. After they free her, both Robin and Lea agree that giving Urikohime a happy ending with Momotaro would be a lot nicer than returning her to her own story, which doesn't end quite as happily for her. Downplayed for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The story still roughly ends the same, with Alice realizing it was All Just a Dream during their trial and waking up. Only this time, the Queen of Hearts is revealed to be a regular human who has been living a power fantasy in Wonderland and is forced to abandon it when Alice brings both of them back to the real world. In The Flower Queen's Daughter, instead of escaping and being protected by the Flower Queen, the Flower Princess and Summer are attacked by the jealous Dragon Prince during the ball, with the Dragon Prince being defeated and abducted by Hook in the end and his mother being defeated by Lea. In Orpheus and Eurydice, Orpheus past the test and Eurydice is revived, allowing them to live thier life together. | |

Functional Genre Savvy: Zig-zagged. Robin is such a huge fairy tale nerd that she often immediately recognizes the stories and characters she and Tank encounter, which makes it way easier for them to figure out how to get the happily ever after. But because Robin is so used to regular fairy tale logic and clichés, she's often caught off-guard by things changing due to Forever After's general unpredictability. Her knowledge is also limited to fairy tales with princesses in them, so fairy tales like Momotaro that have neither a prince nor a princess completely blindside her. | |

Villain Has a Point | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_723be11b | comment |
Villain Has a Point: Played with multiple times throughout the comic. While Hira's reaction to it isn't justified, you can kind of see why she'd be angry over being the only Wise Woman who wasn't invited to the party, simply because the king and queen were too lazy to make one additional golden plate for her. The Wicked Witch isn't wrong in pointing out that what the Fates do to people like Tank and Robin isn't so different from what he and the other villains do to the princesses Nor is he totally wrong with questioning the ethics of the Forever After Fairytale Program, as it was shown that not all characters are aware that their stories have been reset numerous times, and it “does� rob them of the chance to properly grow as they’ll eventually just be reset. | |

You Can't Fight Fate | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_7241785e | comment |
You Can't Fight Fate: Robin tries to end the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale before it begins by putting herself between baby Sleeping Beauty and the Wise Woman who will curse it. The Wise Woman turns her to stone and curses the child right after. After she is turned back into a human years later on Briar Rose’s birthday, Robin watches him all day to keep him from getting his hands on any spindles, only to let her guard down and let him wander off because she thought the curse ended at sundown instead of moondown. Robin tries to simply woo Rapunzel and leave the tower with "her" before the Witch arrived. She still ended up getting blinded herself, just like the Prince in the story did, albeit through a curse instead of the more brutal way in the original. Robin tries different ways to help the Little Mermaid beyond her predestined deal with the Sea Witch, like taking her to see Prince Damir as a mermaid before giving up everything to be with him. Despite her efforts, Aurelia isn’t satisfied with just watching him from afar, and ditches Robin and Tank with the intention of going to the Sea Witch to get legs anyway. Subverted, as Aurelia doesn't have the heart to got through with it in the end and, after overhearing just how much Robin wants her to be happy, decides to instead pursue her goal of seeing the human world. | |

Once More, with Clarity | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_7374ab13 | comment |
Once More, with Clarity: Episodes 58 and 59 explain how the Amanojaku wound up in The Magic Sword and why the Wicked Witch’s scary silhouette could be seen in the background when Robin killed it. Turns out the Amanojaku got out of hand and escaped. The Wicked Witch was following it in an attempt to tie up the loose end. He also looked genuinely concerned while watching Robin fight the Amanojaku and relieved when she managed to kill it. | |

Almost Kiss | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_7eb49b31 | comment |
Tank and Robin don't start off on the right foot, but steadily get closer over the course of the story. Tank's never-ending support and encouragement pulls Robin out of a funk more than once, while Robin's unconventional way of looking at things and surprising emotional depth continually teach Tank to widen his horizon and become more open to new things. Robin is also very obviously attracted to Tank's human form and episode 32 ends on what looks like an Almost Kiss between them, with both leaning closer to each other over the fairy tale book while blushing. Throughout season 2, Tank has started to become defensive of Robin whenever her title of Prince is put into question, or whenever another person—regardless of gender—shows any romantic interest in Robin. In season 3, after Tank regains his Prince Charming role, the two are always eager to be close with one another, to the point where even the Fates wrote down a note to them, reminding them to not procrastinate in a romance story. By season 4, they confess their feelings for another and promise to meet once they're in the real world. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: While rummaging around in the Queen of Hearts' private chambers, Robin steals one of the wigs for Hira. Unfortunately, not only does it turn out that that wig in particular was the queen's favorite, but also that a knave in her court had coveted it for some time (according to the queen, at least). So when the queen discovers it's missing, she assumes the knave stole it and drags him before a court to be executed. When he pleads his innocence, the rest of the queen's subjects quickly jump to accuse Alice, an outsider, instead, leading to a Wonderland-wide head-hunt. | |

Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_82b4f38e | comment |
Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist: Robin is a spoiled, selfish brat with no regard for other peoples' feelings. Her dream of landing herself a Prince Charming is largely based on a desire to lead a luxurious life, not on any romantic notions, to which she even confesses while on a date. So there's not much sympathy to be had when the fantasy-world she's zapped to not only denies her that wish, but also forces her into a proactive role by making her the Prince Charming instead. | |

Tank urges Robin to try this to wake up a poisoned Snow White, claiming that he saw the movie and knows how this works. Robin is squicked out by this, pointing out the Questionable Consent of the situation, then adds that the original fairy tale didn't utilize a kiss to awaken Snow White, but had the dwarfs accidentally make her cough the poisoned apple back up. She then promptly replicates the story by cutting off the legs of the table Snow White was lying on, causing her to fall down and knocking the apple out of her throat. | |

Faux Affably Evil | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_95b7c400 | comment |
Faux Affably Evil: The Wicked Witch introduces himself to Robin shortly after she awakens Snow White and claims he only wants to play fair. But seeing as he's responsible for all the previous Prince Charmings dying and is currently cheating by bringing monsters into the fairy tale that weren't originally there, it's pretty obvious he's lying. Robin sees through him almost immediately. He does this again, offering to give Robin some advice, which ends up just him telling Robin to abandon her quest again. Hira can put on a polite front, but the seething contempt and smug superiority shine through in almost every word she says. She also doesn't think much of backing out of deals and breaking promises whenever she feels like it. | |

Adaptational Diversity: Comes with many of the characters having been genderflipped, resulting in a lot more non-straight couples and having a lot more diverse body types than the stories originally had. Also a justified example, as the story characters are actually all people from the real world who were merely put into story-roles. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |

Be Careful What You Wish For: The Prince Charmings all expressed a desire to be heroes or live in a magical world one way or another. Those wishes were enough for the Fates to pull them into Forever After and set them on a dangerous quest that could very well end with them dying or forgetting all about their old lives. Vasilisa in her own story came to Baba Yaga to ask for a light when the candles in her family's home went out. Baba Yaga, after making Vasilisa do a few tasks in return, "gifted" her with the power of the firebird, which ended up killing her family and destroying her home. | |

Cliffhanger: Each season ends on one: Season 1 ends as Robin, Tank and the Fates reconvene at the meadow, celebrating the ending of Briar Rose's story. Then all of a sudden Lea stumbles in, looking like she's narrowly escaped with her life and informs everyone that they "have a problem". Season 2's is even bigger. Due to the story reset, Robin and Tank are trapped in the spaces in between while Hook starts her plan to escape Forever After. When the Fates are horrified at what Lea had become, she coldy remarks that she never was a hero. And then there's Season 3. The trio make it to Peter Pan where Tank and Damian both confront Hook. Robin manages to find Lea, but discovers she has now completely forgotten about Robin and her own name. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In episode 1, Robin sees what she thinks is a shooting star and makes a wish. The "shooting star" turns out to actually be a crashing plane. That has snakes on it. In episode 3, upon realizing the Fates have transported her to Sleepy Hollow, Robin wonders whether or not she'll meet Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci, referencing of course the 1999 movie. Tank references the Disney movie adaptation of Snow White when he encourages Robin to wake the real Snow White up through a kiss. Robin refuses and points out that in the original fairy tale, Snow White wasn't awakened by True Love's Kiss, but because the dwarfs accidentally dropped her coffin, which caused her to cough up the poisoned apple. In episode 6, when Robin reveals to him that their current fairy tale is Sleeping Beauty, Tank worries about there being a dragon. In Episode 9, when they end up in Rapunzel's tale, Tank is worried that Robin would be a wanted felon. His reasoning for this is because he saw the Disney movie adaptation the movie with Mandy Moore in it. In episode 31 Robin expresses disappointment that Johnny Depp isn't present when she, Tank and Alice come across the March Hare and the Mad Hatter, a reference to the 2010 Disney-adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, in which Johnny Depp played the Mad Hatter. In Episode 33, Lea draws a picture of Jasmine and her tiger Rajah when looking for Badroulbadour. In episode 34, when Lea asks Aladdin about her magic lamp, Aladdin presents her with an oil lamp from her shop that looks exactly like the Genie's lamp in Disney's Aladdin. In Forever After it's just a regular lamp though. Lea later on references the movie outright when thinking about how Aladdin's pet monkey went into the cave with him, while Forever After's Aladdin has to enter the Cave of Wonders on her own. | |

Gosh Dangit To Heck: Forever After is a G-rated fairy tale-land, so swearing is strictly prohibited. Words like "shit" or "fuck" are replaced by more kid-friendly words like "elf" and "wish". When the Fates read Robin's wish, which contains some swear words, the offending words are blotted out by cute animals and flowers. This extends to obscene gestures as well. When Robin tries to give the Fates the middle finger a bird flies in and obscures her hand from view. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: While Forever After's Rapunzel fairy tale does have Robin blinded like the prince in the original story, it happens simply through the witch blowing enchanted powder in her eyes. The Grimm-version had the prince fall out of the tower and his ensuing blindness was caused by the thorn bush at the tower's bottom scratching his eyes out. Save to say depicting this would have been a bit too graphic for the comic's tone at the time. | |

I Know Your True Name: According to Tank, names hold power in the land of Forever After, and if the wrong person knows your real name, they can use it to trap you, trick you, change your destiny and curse you. Thanks to his Magic Mirror, the Wicked Witch was able to hear Robin nonchalantly give away her first name in episode 3, before Robin was even warned of this. However, since it was only her first name, he isn't able to use it for anything at first. After charming Robin into telling him her true name, the Wicked Witch uses it against her to compel her to stay in his castle's tower after Robin refuses to join him on the villains' side. | |

Ship Tease | |
| Forever After (Webcomic) / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: Tank and Robin don't start off on the right foot, but steadily get closer over the course of the story. Tank's never-ending support and encouragement pulls Robin out of a funk more than once, while Robin's unconventional way of looking at things and surprising emotional depth continually teach Tank to widen his horizon and become more open to new things. Robin is also very obviously attracted to Tank's human form and episode 32 ends on what looks like an Almost Kiss between them, with both leaning closer to each other over the fairy tale book while blushing. Throughout season 2, Tank has started to become defensive of Robin whenever her title of Prince is put into question, or whenever another person—regardless of gender—shows any romantic interest in Robin. In season 3, after Tank regains his Prince Charming role, the two are always eager to be close with one another, to the point where even the Fates wrote down a note to them, reminding them to not procrastinate in a romance story. By season 4, they confess their feelings for another and promise to meet once they're in the real world. The Wicked Witch seems very interested in Robin, with him frequently spying on her and her alone and often taking time to personally seek her out and mock her. He also doesn't seem to have a concept of personal space while around her, often leaning in close to her face or touching her intimately. While Robin sees him as a villain and an obstacle to overcome first and foremost, her frequent blushing around him indicates she is at least a bit attracted to him. And in episode 59, The Wicked Witch is shown to be really concerned while watching over Robin’s fight against the Amanojaku, and while it’s not stated, it can be inferred from his blushing afterwards that he was worried for Robin. This culminates with him revealing his true name to her and offering her a position as a queen for Forever After, however Robin is immediate in rejecting this. Hook's interest in Lea veers into romantic territory. She always follows Lea around, openly flirts with her whenever they fight and really likes getting physically close to her. This leads up to the two teaming up and it being implied that two might have done it. Robin and Coira share a short intimate moment together as they jump into the lake together. Shortly after this, Robin describes to Coira that ‘falling’ is what a heart does when someone feels something ‘really important’; which could allude to love; all while she intimately holds Coira. The Wicked Witch and Tank eventually get their own ship tease in the third season, where Tank bride-style carries Damian in order to save him from water, which would've melted the latter had he not intervened. Damian is shown to extremely flustered by this and is noticeably blushing hard. | |

Gold Digger: Robin and she's completely unapologetic about it. Her main goal in life is to nap herself a rich guy, then live the high life on his fortune. Seeing as she grew up in a poor neighborhood, it's kind of understandable. | |

Love Makes You Dumb | |

Love Makes You Dumb/Crazy: Aurelia, the Little Mermaid, is so desperately in love with her prince, she’s willing to make a deal with a sea witch to get legs, a deal that will require her tongue to be cut out as payment, and make her feel like she’s walking on knives. All this for a guy who she hasn’t even met, and only knows because she has his statue. | |

Dark and Troubled Past: Besides Robin, the other Prince Charmings all have this: Tank lost his parents as a teenager and is struggling to support his younger brother. His wish to be his brother's hero is what made him end up in Forever After. Lea lived with an Education Papa who refused to acknowledge her athletic achievements or struggles with reading. His lack of love made her wish to be free, leading her to Forever After. Damian had parents who are always fighting yet still remain together for him. After overhearing another argument, he wishes they were free of him which landed in Forever After. | |

Shown Their Work | |

Shown Their Work: The creators of the comic never miss a chance to flex their fairy tale-knowledge, from bigger things like showcasing the lesser known original story-lines of fairy tales like Sleeping Beauty and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, to smaller details like Alice's dress being yellow like in the original illustrations for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, instead of the blue and white made popular by the Disney-adaptation. | |
