'BEAUTY AND THE BEAST X EDWARD SCISSORHANDS {AU} "Ever just the same, ever a surprise, ever as before and ever just as sure, as the sun will rise." A tale as old as time... Inventor Maurice Delacour and his daughter, Belle have lived their lives as outcasts to a small suburban American town since moving there from the bustling city of France. The zany spirit and creativity of the Inventor and the oddball, quiet peculiarity and independance of Belle were frowned upon by residents of the perfect town. Belle, with a dreamy far off look and a nose stuck in a book, is isolated from the common folk that judge her, and dissatisfied with her life in the small suburban town. Upon exploring the old abandoned castle, far off from the town, she discovers a boy with scissors as hands, living his life all these years in the ancient shadows of the castle. A scissor-handed boy named Edward. Soon, Edward is welcomed into the small neighbourhood - treated with the motherly affection of Peg Boggs, the mechanical interest of Inventor Maurice, the judgement of gossiping townfolk, but above all the intrigue of Belle Delacour. Belle forms a friendship with Edward, hypnotised by his purity and peculiarity. Two oddballs living in a town of perfection. Their bond endures many tribulations because of their oddity, and Edward grows to despair his unfinished form. For who could ever learn to love a beast? ♡🌹 BEAUTIFUL COVER BY @CreativityMary 2018 WATTYS SHORTLIST Started: 13/2/17
