Story Notes: This story takes place in a pseudo-historical alternate reality at some vague time between 1600 and 1900. I’m taking full advantage of the fact it is a fairy tale to avoid having to narrow it down any further than that.
Also, in the same vein, please note that my characterisation may be something of a hot mess. Fans of Riley are in for an especially tough ride.
The title of the fic is taken from a line in the song ‘Beauty and the Beast’, the longer version of which is ‘and ever just as sure / as the sun will rise’. I like the idea that, regardless of the context, we can always make Spuffy an inevitability.
Beautiful banner by Irandamay – thank you so much for turning it around in such a short time <3

Big thank you to bramcrackers for looking this over and teaching me lots of historical points of interest! If you spot any mistakes, they are all down to me and my post-beta fiddling.
