Write a story in which a classic fairy tale character manipulates their story to avoid their original fate.

This prompt challenges you to question the agency of characters in pre-written stories. Can Cinderella avoid the ball or the glass slipper? Can the Three Little Pigs fortify their homes to withstand the Big Bad Wolf’s huffing and puffing? This prompt encourages expansion of imaginative boundaries, questioning fate, and taking control.
