How It Should Have Been - Cinderella

I spent way too long on this... (good grief, I haven't drawn a comic style picture in ages!)

Okay... this one's going to require some 'splaining...

When I do my chores during the day, I like to listen to YouTube stuff while I work. I especially love watching Phelous' hilarious reviews of animated movies.

So I was watching his review of Cinderella www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wfhIu…; and he pointed out a notable plot hole in the story of Cinderella.

How does the prince not know what Cinderella generally looks like? He definitely saw her and spent most of the night with her. Why wouldn't he just tell the staff her hair color or a distinct feature so they could at least rule out some of the ladies in the town?

I scrolled through the comments because I was wondering if anyone had commented on that, and I saw a comment from a user named Bread Lord that pointed out that if the prince was blind, it would make more sense.

And anyone who knows me knows I love adorable blind guys, so I had to reply to this comment.

I said the following...

"Now I'm imagining a scene where Cinderella and the blind prince are sitting down after dancing. She starts complaining about her feet hurting from the glass slippers (since those things would really be uncomfortable.) The blind prince carefully starts to massage one of her feet noting how small and narrow it is. Then the clock strikes midnight and she runs away leaving the one slipper behind with him."

And, needless to say, inspiration struck!

So, here's the scene I imagined. The plot hole is fixed. The day is saved. Hooray!

Thanks and shout outs to Bread Lord for being my muse.

(Note: I based their designs somewhat on the Disney version, but that's because I always liked that design. This is not fanart for the Disney version.)

EDIT: And I drew them again if anyone is interested in checking that out! fav.me/dcida1u

ENJOY!!
