I'm a romantic who can't get enough of the "Person A is possessed and Person B is trying to wake them up" trope... it never fails to get me every time.
Oh yes totally, same! The "haunted slippers" is a common motif, I think, but it never fails to get a reaction from me. Nothing gets me onboard quicker than a hero who will risk personal harm at the hands of his beloved in order to bring them back from the brink, it's just... it's a really human sort of story.
I keep thinking about the framework of this story, the idea of a magical castle just appearing one day in the normal world, in a crowded city. If you see me steal that plot later, please don't tell anyone. :p
Thank you for entertaining my overenthusiasm and for sharing these gems with us!!
