I really love some of the concepts in om! I’ve seen a lot of ppl upset that it isn’t darker and more grim but I’ve always loved that contrast of something grim being taken and given a lighthearted twist. It gives this sort of fairytale vibe and it’s my jam

om!, niflheim, the way they have these gothic/halloween vibes without necessarily being dark but whimsical and fun I WILL ALWAYS EAT IT UP. also reminds me of a game I used to play called A Witch’s Tale and I just loved it

that’s not to say I don’t see the appeal in dark stories. I love horror and a good dark AU every now and then. I just don’t think these things always have to go to that extreme. there’s a charm to them as they already are.
