Short Story 66: Three Fingers

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

As far as I can tell, the Wicked Queen of Snow White, Grimeheld, has five
digits on each hand and doesn't wear gloves, and is distinct from the
villain of Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent. (Though I suspect this story would
not deign to separate them symbolically)
