Main Plot:
Linda White works for the American Magical Criminals Agency (AMCA). The only reason they even decided to hire her was because her father was one of the founder. The men at work are sexist and never let her solve an actual case. So when they get a case about The Little Ones again, they give it to her, because they think that she’d never be able to solve it and would leave them alone.
Joseph Charming knows that White is very skilled because Linda actually was on a case once and she did amazing. So he thinks that she’ll be given actual recognition. The thing about the case from before is that no one remembers it and even if they do, they think that Charming was the hero and White only slowed him down.
Queenie Martinelli has a grudge against White because she once put her husband in prison where he died. She agrees to help Charming bring her down. She’s a witch and does everything she can to mess up White’s case. Andy Benson knows about this and tries to warn her.
WHEEEE! I actually did something!
Hope this explains some stuff.
Hmm, a fairy tale retelling with a badass female main character? Sign me the fuck up.
