I mean, I'm guilty of making characters with parallels to their story in almost everything, but I'm venturing off of that soon. I just want to see some more creativity utilized, you know? I'm also very much a parallel person! Honestly I don't see it as much of a bad thing? Essentially, in Ever After, legacies have probably grown up knowing that they're going to follow in a fairytale's footsteps, and their lives will be shaped around this legacy. Parallels and similarities are just going to be natural.

Plus, it's a pretty neat literacy technique and it can also work really well as a foil.
