Suggestion (CROWNER): Intimate Healing

There's no reason for this not to have an image. There's Snow White in her coffin◊ or tending to the shirtless wounded one◊.

CROWNER here

We had a thread here minutes ago.

I like the first more, as it's stronger in the healing department.

First is on Dude, She's Like in a Coma.

The second looks too much like regular patching someone up.

Check out my fanfiction!

Well, same scene, different image.

That'd be too close to a duplicate for my liking. We could have Sleeping Beauty on one page and Snow White on the other, I guess. Suggestion 1.2 is great on the healing, low on the intimacy. Something like it that's more intimacy-y would be my preference.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

1.2 doesn't look like this trope. Snow White is great though, and a classic.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

And already used

Well, Sleeping Beauty's kiss would be a much more straight-forward example, since the Prince in Snow White had no idea that a kiss would break the spell—that fits Dude, She's Like in a Coma a lot better, since he's kissing her because she's beautiful and he met her once, where as the Prince of Sleeping Beauty is deliberately trying to break the spell.

High on the intimate, low on the healing, high on the Dude, She's Like in a Coma.

Check out my fanfiction!

Good point. I find this definitely better than having no image.

The Sleeping Beauty pic is good enough.

I didn't ask for the last thread to be closed. I thought that Snow White was somewhere but I couldn't find it. Sleeping Beauty would be good for this.

Had I known someone was going to bring up another pic, I wouldn't have asked the thread to be closed. Sorry.

I like the idea of having Sleeping Beauty. Although - did the prince know it would wake her up? I have troubles recollecting how the kiss of life is played in fairy tales.

The episode of Doctor Who Let's Kill Hitler has a good visual example of this trope in my opinion. I'm just not at my computer right now so I can't screencap the perfect moment.

Essentially I'm suggesting one of these scenes though I think there's a better moment somewhere in between them:

[1]◊ [2]◊ [3]◊ [4]◊ [5]◊

Yes, he did.

I'd love to use one of those, but that just looks like Magic Kiss. It doesn't have the Pop-Cultural Osmosis that Snow White or Sleeping Beauty have.

Sleeping Beauty, then.

Yes, having light or sparkles or something would make it look too magical. I think the only way to have something better than Sleeping Beauty is if in a love story the unwell character is wet and needs mouth to mouth or body heat. There's Bella and Jacob◊ but I'm not sure how much is comes across that she needs his body heat.

Actually that kind of works for me. The woolly cap kind of says she's cold, I'd imagine. But I probably prefer Sleeping Beauty.

In what way does a guy kissing a sleeping girl show healing?

(edit: sorry, I first posted this when I was half asleep and I thought the question was about the other pic)

The description mentions kissing as one of the way of Intimate Healing. Though perhaps it would be a better fit for Magic Kiss.

Yeah, that was bugging me too.

In the way that everybody knows the fairy tale.

Bumping.

I like both Sleeping Beauty and Bella and Jacob.

Does anyone else like the Bella and Jacob picture or should we go with Sleeping Beauty?
