Oh man, I've been sitting on this idea for SO LONG.

Designs/story are very heavily based off of the movie-verse, obviously as I love that movie and all the songs that comes with it <3 Charlotte's singing realllly tugs my heartstrings ;-;

So basically, we have Charlotte who is a successful writer for her own magazine (appropriately named Charlotte's Web) and yet lives in a modest apartment building on the outer edge of the city. Always been told she could've been a singer with her angelic voice, she instead insists that her true passion is in writing and prefers to spend her days with a mug of tea and a quill feathered pen clasped between her fingers as she watches the day go by in the city out of her first floor apartment window.

Fern, who is Wilbur's aunt and raised him, sent the boy fresh out of college to live in the city to pursue his aspirations to be a writer. She set him up with an apartment and a job reference and everything! At first, everything's going smoothly, but it eventually takes a turn for the worst.

Trouble is, the boy's lost his muse and so his writing's been lacking. The Zuckermans, whoever the landlords and rumored to keep an entire farm on the top of the building (they used to be farmers), are nice people, but they have to eat, too. Wilbur's close to losing his first job and behind on the rent, so he'll be kicked out soon as well as losing work. And he doesn't want to face Aunt Fern, who tried so had to help him reach his goals.

And that's when Charlotte comes into the picture - she just so happens to live in the same apartment building and, seeing herself in this fumbling young writer, she takes him under her wing. Charlotte's well known and respected throughout the neighborhood so Wilbur soon makes new friends with everyone, too. And when they learns of his writing problems, they try to inspire him in any way they can, each being as helpful as possible~

'Cept Templeton, the skeezy garbageman who hangs around the neighborhood. No one knows much about him, except that he likes to collect odd (and somewhat unpleasant things) from his shifts, and he has some mysterious past dealings with Charlotte, who insists on keeping him around.

Aaand I've got even more details figured out, but that's the basis of it. x) I might eventually sketch up everyone else's human designs as well, these were so fun!





Charlotte's Web belongs to EB. White.
