Halfamoon '22 recommendation #1: War and Peace (OUaT, Mulan)
I've decided to approach ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
halfamoon '22 as a recommendations challenge...
For Day 1's theme, "War and Peace," I recommend this Once Upon a Time story in which Mulan was there in Storybrooke, believing herself a US veteran of the wars with Afghanistan and Iraq and carrying battle PTSD that maps onto her experiences in the land of folktales in the life she doesn't remember.
More, this is a meticulously crafted AU. This time, Maleficent, not Regina, casts the curse. So it targets Aurora, not Snow. Nothing -- and everything -- is the same.
