The mysterious vanishing Mr Bore by triskellion (G)

Fandom: Fairy Tales: Jack and the Beanstalk
Characters: The Giantess, OCs
Length: 1489 words
Author Website: at AO3

Why this must be read: It's a retelling from the other side of the beanstalk. We listen in as Mrs. Bore, the Giant's wife, tells of her husband's disappearance after he chases Jack at the end of canon.

As I read Mrs. Bore's dialogue, I kept hearing the voice of the wife in "Men in Black" talking about a man wearing an "Edgar suit"; weird but true. The poor dear tries to explain the circumstances leading up to the vanishing and you can feel how she's having trouble believing her own story. Mrs. Bore is clueless and hapless and I wish her well. Enjoy.
