Beauty and The Beast's Nits.

Story - ATC

The beast loved beauty, his nits knew that.

But perhaps he loved her too much? He wanted to gobble her up so she could never leave him like he often thought she would.

As unconditionally loving as Belle seemed surely everybody had their limit when enough would be enough and it would be time to flee.

The nits could see.

As the two lovers danced cautiously the nits itched against Belles beauty making her pull away slightly.

"It's not you, it's me." She explained, irritated she scratched the pain.

The nits felt sorry for The Beast, it was clear to him now he had realised that he would never be able to love her without hurting her no matter how much she endured he just had to let her go.

The beauty did not understand, she broke like rocks to sand ready to be washed out into the sea a forgotten memory of their once true love.

If Disney would tell us like you just did - what happens after Beauty and the Beast get together? Although you are playfully funny here, there is some painful truth to it. Can Beauty ever really be with the Beast who keeps hurting her with those nits for all life? And better yet, can she really live that long...we can never know when the beast wakes up and eats her? Instincts are instincts after all.

A good spin of the tale, that portrays true love indeed. Letting her go.. well done Ally.

Can't say that I have ever thought about it like that.
Nice spin. A work of art.

A nice take on the tale.
I like how the nits act as friends, those not directly involved but can see more than those who are, and appear to notice that it can't end well, so they do what they can to stop them.
