The Prince and the Star

Chapter One: Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time, there was a girl in a far away kingdom known as Rosas. Rosas was a peaceful and prosperous kingdom, with people from many walks of life living their. Everyone was happy. But one day, a terrible monster came to the kingdom. It tore apart the kingdom and forced all who inhabited it to flee. Many knights tried to slay the monster, but none prevailed.

The girl saw the destruction, and was devastated. One night, she looked to the sky, and made a desperate plea. “Oh please,” she cried, “if anyone can hear me, any god or higher power, help me and my people. Help us fight this beast and vanquish it once and for all.” And to her surprise, someone answer- a star from the sky itself. “Gather your closest companions,” it said. “Bring them to me, and I will bless all of you with the powers necessary to slay the monster and save your home.”

The girl did as the star told, bringing six of her friends to the star. It gave each of them mighty powers, from the strength of ten men, to the sharpest wits, and to the girl, he gave her the ability to use magic like none before had seen. “Now go and save your kingdom.” It said before flying back to the sky. The seven marched towards the monster, their heads held high. They fought for three days and three nights, but at long last, they defeated the monster. The kingdom praised and thanked them for what they had done, and each of the six friends became respected nobles. As for the girl, she became the queen, and ruled over Rosas with kindness and wisdom for many years.

Antonio tilted his head as his grandfather finished the story. “Is that a real story?” He asked from his seat on the balcony.

“Why of course it is.” Abuelito said with a chuckle. “As far as I know, anyways.” He leaned back in his own chair, closing the book he had been reading from.

“Why of course it is.” Abuelito said with a chuckle. “As far as I know,

Antonio looked up at the sky dotted with stars. The young boy got up and walked over to the railing, gripping it with his small hands as he looked up in awe. “So if I make a wish on a star, I can make anything happen?”

“Yes, of course.” Abuelito said. “As long as you use the gifts they give you wisely.”

“Why don’t they just make the wish come true?” Antonio asked. “Why didn’t the star just kill the monster itself instead of making the girl and her friends do it?”

Abuelito didn’t immediately answer the question, pondering it in his chair for a few moments. “Not everything can be done with a snap of your fingers, I believe. That’s just not how the world works, unfortunately. You have to find that little spark inside you and use it to do what’s right.”

Antonio nodded “I think I get it.” He smiled, looking up at the sky. “I would use my spark for good things. I would fight a hundred monsters, or make sure no one was ever sad again, or-or make sure no one ever went hungry.”

Abuelito sighed and stood up after a long pause, and rested his hand on Antonio’s shoulder. “Antonio listen to me.” The boy looked up at his grandfather, blinking. “Never give your spark up to your mother, okay? I sense you have a strong one in you that you can use for great things. You can be the catalyst to change things when no one else is willing to do so. But you have to hold onto that spark. No matter what. Understand?”

Antonio stared up at his grandfather with wide eyes and nodded. “I understand.”

Abuelito relaxed. “Good. Just remember: happiness has to be fought for. Like in the story. Now, let’s get you to bed before your mother finds us and throws a fit. She always hates me telling you that story.”

Antonio quickly grabbed the book and ran into the room behind them- his bedroom- and quickly put it back on a low shelf. Then he jumped into his bed, laying down. Abuelito smiled and pulled the covers over his grandson and walked towards the door. “Goodnight, little prince.”

“Goodnight,” Antonio called back, watching his grandfather go. Silently, he waited for his grandfather’s footsteps to fade before jumping out of bed and running back to the balcony. He looked up at the night sky again, resting his chin on the railing.

He sighed. What could he wish on? He didn’t want anything, to tell the truth. He was a prince. His mother gave him anything he wanted within reason. He thought for a minute, before finally coming up with an idea. He clasped his hands together, squeezing his eyes shut. “I wish for someone to love me. Not like my friends or my mother do. I want someone to love me for me, like Abuelito.” He stared up at the stars, watching them twinkle and sparkle against the inky night sky. “Please?”

(Wooo I’m actually doing this. This is going to be one of two projects I’ll be working on for a little while. The others gonna be a Skyrim fic going through the civil war and main quest line. That will have be little heavier with its topics so this should be a nice breather. So yeah, lots of fun stuff to come!

I don’t have anything particular to say about this chapter to be honest. Abuelito’s really only a minor character in this entire AU, and Antonio is a lot more interesting when he’s older. With the story Abuelo tells, I just thought it would be nice for it to be a nod to the original movie.)

EDIT: PFFFFT WHY DID TUMBLR MARK THIS AS MATURE?!

This…makes me feel a lot better about my own works. Especially now my little snippet of The Prince and The Star gained a little traction.

Like people in the Wish Rewrite crew have even taken notice hot dang.

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.

Eu fiz essas ilustrações durante o Dia dos Namorados de 2022, eu amo demais esse projeto! "Uma moça inteligente e determinada, que para salvar seu pai de uma dívida, vai trabalhar na mansão de um jovem veterano da Segunda Guerra, recluso e amargurado pelas cicatrizes em seu rosto devido ao campo de batalha." >>> I made these during brazilian's Valentine's Day 2022, and I love it so much! "An intelligent and determined lady, to save her father from a debt, decides to work on a manor of a young, World War II vet, recluse and bitter due to the scars in his face caused by the battlefield."

The Prince and The Star (Wish AU Concept/Teaser?)

Antonio sighed , dangling his legs over the tree branch. “This isn’t right, Felipe. My mother is taking people’s spark- a part of their soul for crying out loud- and they don’t even know it. And I’m doing nothing about it!” He rested his chin in his hands and huffed. “Not that I probably could do anything to stop her…”

Felipe bleated and nudged Antonio, rubbing his head against his side. Antonio reached out and gently scratched him behind the ear. He looked up at the starry sky, and a thought popped into his mind. He remembered when he was younger, Abuelo had talked about people and the stars being connected. He couldn’t remember the much of what he talked about. He remembered one story however. Once, a peasant girl had made a wish upon a star and the star had come down to help her and her kingdom from danger. His mother had always despised the story, and told Antonio it was complete nonsense. It did sound very far-fetched to him. But he was desperate for help and answers. And maybe…just maybe…

Antonio took a deep breath and stood up, looking up at the sky. He scanned the stars and settled his gaze on a dimmer one to the north. He clasped his hands together and closed his eyes tight. “I wish…I wish for all the people of Navarra to have their sparks back, and for my mother- Queen Maria- to stop using dark sorcery.” He slowly and opened his eyes. The night remained still and silent, apart from a few distant crickets. He sighed and glanced down at Felipe “I knew this was a stupid idea-“

Just then a bright light filled the entire sky, making Antonio shield his eyes from the glare. A strange rumbling filled the air, and Antonio could swear he felt something rush past him. The light dimmed and Antonio looked back up at the star he had wished on, only to find it gone. “What- what was that?” He half-said, half-shouted. He trembled and took a few deep breaths, hoping to calm his nerves. “We should probably head home. Before mother realizes I’m gone and gets mad.”

Felipe bleated excitedly and bucked, running off towards the woods. “Hey! Wait!” Antonio quickly ran after his pet, weaving through trees and bushes as he tried to catch up to the kid. When he finally did, he found Felipe staring at a pile of clothes that had been knocked out of a basket. He panted as he slowly approached the goat. “What has gotten into you buddy?” He was about to grab the young goat when he saw the clothes shake. A little at first, then more and more. Slowly he approached the pile of clothes and lifted it up. He expected to see a rabbit or a raccoon under it all, ready to dash away at the first sight of him. But that’s now what he found at all. He found a girl.

(Apologies if this sounds bad, I sort of got a random itch to write this and caved in, so it’s very first -drafty)

These are my own designs on Princess Asha of Rosas and Prince Earendel of the Stars (Starboy)!

So based on the Art of Wish book, they are both described as ‘soulmates’ and I’ve also saw other people’s iterations as romantic. To me, they seem like more than best friends but not in a ‘romantic’ relationship. For these two I see them having a platonic affectionate relationship- like they are both their comfort persons. And if they had to choose a partner to dance with, they’d choose each other. It’s hard to explain, but I can see them definitely hugging, cuddling, and holding hands at most 🤷🏽‍♀️

What I’m saying is that these two, to me, are VERY close but don’t have romantic feelings mixed into it. There are different types of love and relationships and they don’t all have to be romantic or etc.

I like the idea of true love having different meanings, like in Frozen the true love was sibling/family love. For Wish, I think it could’ve been communal love and the love for the people as a whole and a kingdom. It can be where people look out for the other and care deeply for the other’s desires and feelings. That’s Asha’s and Earendel’s true love meaning right there. They are each other’s light, and if one of them dims out then the other is there to light them up back to life (or however you word it lol).

So for Wish’s true love I can see it being communal love! They’re soulmates! Earendel could still be considered a Disney Prince, too.

Anyways, here’s Asha and Earendel designs that I might possibly redo (it’s old art!) Btw if you prefer them as anything else, I respect that! This is just my interpretation 🫶

they will get their execution. i will get my freedom. IRON LUNG OFFICIAL TRAILER.

Okay but Wish Genderbent Rewrite?

So, I’ve succumbed to the Wish Rewrite part of Tumblr and am currently in the process of rapidly consuming fics to fill the void of waiting for Iron Lung to come out. (I’m very desperate). As I was going through @annymation’s extras (specifically this post) Ihad a thought: wouldn’t a genderbent version be cool?

Like instead of Asha you could have Ash or Antonio since Wish is set in Spain, and we could have a Stargirl instead. The King and Queen would probably be the same, just swapped where Amaya is the reigning monarch.

I may actually sit down and write this if it gains enough traction, so let me know your thoughts.
