So... while the show won't just follow the stories of the characters' allusions, we know that it is occasionally influenced by their allusions. For example, Jaune (Joan of Arc) being harassed by Cardin (Henry Beaufort), as well as Pyrrha (Achilles) meeting her demise due to taking an arrow to the ankle (heel) which stopped her from fleeing.

With that in mind, I was thinking about Beauty and the Beast. Well, to be more specific, I was thinking about the Disney version, since I don't know that much about the original. However, they have been taking reference from the Disney version, hence Blake's love of books and Miles referring to Blake's candelabra and book as "Belle-related things", despite Lumiere the candelabra being a Disney addition.

Anyway... in the Disney movie, the Beast takes Belle's father captive, and Belle agrees to switch places with her father. This is how she ends up Beast's captive.

That has me wondering: Will things play out in a way where Blake ends up giving herself up in order to save her parents? We know that Adam and the Albains are fully intent on killing her parents, so it won't be a deal that she'll make. It could be something where she does something that cuts off a route or access to her parents (and probably Sun) to allow them to get away, while she stays behind to make absolutely sure they'll be safe, and her capture either is or is not part of her plan. This would lead to her ending up in Mistral, either as Adam's captive or through a narrow escape before she gets to the White Fang HQ. It would also serve somewhat as a Beauty and the Beast reference.
