Hank nodded softly. “I.. I mean I guess you have a point there. Just, you shouldn’t be alone. I mean no one really, truly enjoys being alone. You have family and stuff, don’t you?” He asked rubbing the back of his neck knowing first hand that was a rather touchy subject. Nodding he kept his space. “It’s okay to cry and be upset you know. Things only get worse if you keep them bottled up.” 

Elsa couldn’t help but let out a sarcastic laugh at his words, “you know my entire life I was told to do the complete opposite?” Elsa finally looked over at him, tears falling rapidly down her cheeks now, “I was told over and over again to conceal and don’t feel, to keep all my emotions bottled up.” With each word she could feel herself coming undone, opening up, something she wasn’t used to. “Well- look where it got me” Elsa motioned to snow falling around them again and the wind picking up.

She looked at Elsa and then at the snowy world around them. “It really is beautiful isn’t it? The winter. It’s scary and totally shouldn’t be happening right now but I can’t help but smile at it…” she looked back at Elsa, “this…wouldn’t happen to be your roundabout way of telling me you started this winter…would it?” she said, half joking. 

She shook her head, Elsa never found the snow to be beautiful she found it to be frightening and something that only carried danger with it. Rapunzel’s next question caused Elsa to look at her, hands fidgeting once more, should she tell her secret to one more person? Surely if anyone was going to understand it would be Rapunzel right? Honestly, Elsa didn’t know what else to do, she didn’t want to turn herself in but she didn’t want to be trapped by her snow forever. With big eyes and a deep breath Elsa nodded, “yes- I did this.”

Princeton didn’t entirely know. He went off of precedents and well, this had never happened before. And if it had, it was never recorded. The aurors would’ve cleared it up if it had. They would’ve solved the mystery and cleaned it up within minutes of hearing about it. Princeton knew the aurors were clueless. They had to be. As for dealing with guilty parties, they knew how to make someone talk. “My guess is they would administer veritaserum. I believe it is a popular potion when it comes to interrogations.”

Elsa waited for his answer impatiently, twisting her hands nervously. Nodding at his answer Elsa weighed her options, half of her wanted to go to the aurors, she wanted them to lock her up and keep her away from everyone, then maybe she’d finally be able to keep everyone safe- keep Anna safe. “Right- okay” she kept nodding, her mind going a mile a minute. “I’m just worried about whoever did this, I mean I’m sure they didn’t mean to do it right? Otherwise I’m sure something worse would have come following this storm, something worse.”

Hank shook his head a little. “Why are you so pushy on just sitting by yourself in the snow? Clearly not really dressed. I mean is everything alright? You can talk to me you know. People don’t just call me happy for a the fun of it.” he teased before coughing realizing that was stupid to say. “Elsa… hey.. seriously you alright?” 

“Because, I like to be alone, it makes things easier for me, when I’m around people things get messy and I don’t really feel like anyone else becoming collateral damage to my mistakes.” Elsa’s words were sharp hoping maybe they were get her point across despite the stinging in her eyes, a sign tears were to follow. “I’m fine.” She looked away from him wiping away a stray tear. “I just got into a fight with my sister and it kinda got blown out of proportion- that’s all.”

“Not a problem,” he nodded and began to continue his trek to the aurors. He stopped to answer her question. “I think if the person who did it, did it out of malice then they will probably be hard on them. But if it was an accident, then I don’t see them being unreasonable.”

Elsa nodded at his answer, although it brought some comfort it also set in some fears she had before. As much as she knew it was an accident, would they believe her? And what would they do with her and her powers? “So- they wouldn’t lock them up or anything? Do weird tests or something?”

[concealing-elsa-blog]

glowing-punzel:

The question caught her off guard, “well…” she said, taking a seat next to Elsa, “I never really had a choice I suppose. My mother made sure I was using it all the time, ever since I could remember. I was isolated growing up and in a lot of ways, I guess it kind of kept me company?” she said, looking over at her, “I never knew to be afraid of it really until I came here, my mother told me that people would try and use me for what I can do but I never really believed her.” She looked away and grimaced, “I think I was being my most selfish when I let that fear control me. I got so wrapped up in trying to help people and meet their expectations but, I  don’t know, I guess I just had the believe that I have this power for a reason, that it’s meant to be me and not worry so much about how I use it, you know?” she looked back at her. “Does that make, like, any sense? I feel like it didn’t”

And there it was, the reason they differed so much, where Rapunzel’s mom encouraged her power, made her feel like it was something special, Elsa was made to live in fear of it. Their common ground was isolation but her power wasn’t what kept her company it was what kept her away. Honestly the more Rapunzel talked the more helpless Elsa felt, she seemed so much stronger than her, so much more able to control her power and it was a power used for good. What good could come from freezing over summer and hurting the one person that meant the world to her. “No- yeah- It made sense for sure. Thanks.” Her words were soft as her gaze fell down to her hands.

“Yeah. I mean I’ve seen so many people out playing in it. I have a friend that needs to keep cool, and she’s living for this. Snowmen, sledding - everyone’s kinda forgetting the horror that just happened.” He shrugged a bit shoving his hands in his pockets. “Some love the snow, you just have to find them.” He assured her. “Eh, Well not to be a bother, but I’m not really leaving. You wanna get cocoa or something?” 

It was weird to think her panic and her fear was bringing happiness for some people. Elsa always lived with the idea that her powers were bad but for one split second Hank made her believe that maybe there was some good to them. “Why not? I’m really okay out here, you can go enjoy the snow if you’d like with your friends.” Elsa sat wringing her hands out trying to rid the shakiness from them. “No- I- no thank you.” The thought of being near more people- people she could hurt scared her.

Hank nodded. “I can tell. I mean you ran out here like that before dressing properly.” he laughed a little. “It’s weird, but I don’t know I think everyone needed a little laughter and fun after the attacks.” He shrugged a little kicking a bit of the snow around his feet. Frowning he looked towards her. “Elsa.. please, wear the jacket. If I’m going back I’ll be warm. You’ll catch a cold out here if you’re not dressed properly.” he said softly. “I’ll stay out here with you. It’s really no problem at all. Any idea how this all got here?” 

“And you think this is going to bring them fun and laughter?” Elsa raised an eyebrow at him, how was snow going to do that for people? Snow was cold, wet and awful especially when it’s supposed to be sunny, warm and beautiful out. “Everyone loves their summers and this ruined it all.” Rolling her eyes Elsa put the jacket back on not willing to argue with him or tell him why she was immune to the cold. “You really don’t have to, I’m fine by myself, really.” Her eyes fell at the snow again, “No idea...” her lie trailed off.

“Yeah, that was something else.” Princeton’s mother didn’t even want him in the area when the vampires were attacking. But he was there and he survived. “Are you alright? Do you need someone to walk back with? I was going to see if the aurors needed help but I can return afterwards.” He didn’t know Elsa enough to judge on her behavior but she did seem a bit out of sorts. He chalked it up to nerves. A lot had happened in their little magical part of the world. A lot that could make even the most steely of people act strange.

His gesture was kind enough, gentleman like to make sure she got back alright, but Elsa didn’t want to go back and she didn’t want to be anywhere near the aurors. This was new territory for her and she wasn’t sure she wanted to find out what happened if someone was to find out she was the one who caused this. “No I- I’m okay, thank you though.” Elsa nodded at him with a forced smile hoping he would just carry on now, but curiosity sparked her before he could walk away. “Do you- do you have any idea what they’ll do to the person who did all this?”

“the one and only.” He laughed a little as he looked towards Elsa with a small wave. Something felt a bit off, but he would maybe figure that out a little later. Hank had learned if you ignored the issue they broke and just told you about it anyways. As she took his jacket he nodded and shoved his hands in his pocket. “No worries. I think everyone is and I’m not sure when that will all go away. “It snowed! I couldn’t just look at untouched snow. I’m the type that needs to just.. step in it. Horrible I know. what um.. are you doing out here?  It’s too cold to be dressed that way, and well alone. Come on, wanna walk back towards the castle?” 

How could someone love the snow? It was something Elsa grew to fear in so many ways, to know someone out there actually found it to be enjoyable seemed odd to her. “I uh- same- just wanted to see the fresh fallen snow up close is all.” Elsa faked a smile and looked at what she had created only moments ago. “What?” Her eyes widened a bit at mention of going back to the castle as she looked up at him from her spot on the bench. “No- I- I’m fine out here, if you’re going back then here-” she took the jacket off from around her shoulders and handed it up to him, “you can have your jacket back I’m okay, I’ve never been bothered by the cold.” The last thing Elsa wanted to do right now was go back to the castle.

The snow had been a surprise…a scary surprise but also a beautiful one. Wandering through the snow, she found that her healing light had been enough to ward off some of the cold, making the experience all the better. She came across the park where Elsa was and eventually spotting her sitting on a bench…in summer clothes. She startled when Elsa called out, “It’s just Rapunzel…” she said, “we talked about salad? Um…I hope you don’t mind me pointing it out but you seem kind of underdressed for winter, is everything okay?”

When she saw the blonde turn the corner a huge sigh of relief fell from her lips, if anyone would understand the mess she was in it might have been Rapunzel. The problem was she wasn’t sure how to tell someone that she was the cause of freezing summer over. Looking down at her outfit Elsa knew it looked suspicious, who in their right might would be out in a blizzard dressed like she was. Shrugging Elsa sat down on the bench again, “the cold never bothered me, I truthfully can’t feel a thing out here and that’s not due to me growing numb either.” Looking down at her hands Elsa began wringing them nervously. “How do you do it?” she looked up at Rapunzel, “how do you use your power so well? Keep it so in control?”

Princeton knew the snow was a product of magic. It was written all over the sudden storm. The presence of MACUSA aurors confirmed his suspicion. H e wanted to speak with them to see if there was anything he could do to help. He was a Charming and that was his duty.

Princeton was shocked by the suddenness of Elsa’s question but not entirely surprised. His hand instinctively went to his wand. After the vampires, one couldn’t be too cautious. “Elsa, it’s me, Princeton.”

She had seen him around before, they never spoke at length but she recognized him as a horned serpent. Elsa also knew that he had somewhat of hand in the upper authorities in the world of magic. He was well connected to put in simply. The thought of this made her heart race a little faster, nervous he’d be able to tell she was the one who did this and would turn her into the MACUSA. Giving him a weak smile Elsa nodded at him, “oh- hey- sorry about that, just a little jumpy after everything that’s been going on. I mean, vampires and now this?” Forcing a laugh out of her Elsa tried her best to act as normal as she could, but normal for Elsa wasn’t smiling and laughing, she already knew she was failing.

Hank couldn’t seem to stop wondering around. Everything kept catching his eyes and before he knew it he had wondered off to who knows where, but he saw a blonde. One he knew and frowned to why she was alone, and not really dressed. Slipping out of his jacket he jumped as he got closer. “Whoa.. hey. Sorry. I shouldn’t just sneak up after a vampire attack huh? Sorry.. Um… here..” He said handing her the jacket. “It’s pretty chilly out here. You alright?” 

“Hank-” Elsa breathed a sigh of relief as she saw the familiar face come closer to her. For a brief moment Elsa simply looked at the jacket he held out to her debating on if she should take it or not. The girl was never bothered by the cold, but not accepting the jacket would cause for suspicion so she accepted the jacket with a half hearted smile.  “Uh- yeah, I’m fine just a little jumpy since everything.” Sitting back down Elsa’s gaze fell to the snowy ground, sniffling up the last of her tears. “What are you doing out here?” She was sure everyone would be bolted up inside from the storm.

“Why so cold, Elsa?” Gaston asked as he slid into the seat next to the older girl.

“You can teach yourself! You’ve lived so long in fear, Elsa - have you tried to just.. accept and let someone help you! You’ve been alone too, and maybe you just need … love.” She said softly as she kept getting closer to her. “Elsa… please.” She begged her sister. Her heart breaking as she watched tears stroll down cheeks of a woman she always saw to be so strong. “I saw.. but I’m not afraid of you. You’re my sister, you’re my family. We do this together.” She said strongly. “Elsa! Getting worked up and scared is only making it worse, I would never hurt you.. please. Elsa. I love you, just .. stop! I need my big sister, please… ” 

All she could do was shake her head and back away, the word no falling from her lips over and over again. “You should be afraid” her words were soft but tense and with every step closer Anna took toward her Elsa could feel the power building only being encouraged by the fear she had felt toward her sister walking closer. “Anna- please, stop- don’t come any closer!” She put her hands up in defense as she continued walking away. “Anna please don’t!” With one more step Elsa felt herself give in once more, ice shooting through her finger tips and hitting Anna. A gasp fell from her lips as she looked at her sister. “Anna- I’m sorry- I’m so-” Shaking her head Elsa couldn’t even bear to look at her sister any more. “I’m sorry” was all she could say before running off.

HIDE AWAY - OPEN

It had only been a few hours since Elsa had made a run for it, she wasn’t sure as to where to go but soon find herself in her favorite park. It should have been in full bloom and filled with people, children laughing and families enjoying a summer night. Due to the unexpected storm however it seemed cleared. Sitting on a nearby bench Elsa let a few tears slip from her eyes before they came at full capacity, she tried to wipe them away but she couldn’t keep up. Still in her summer clothes Elsa didn’t feel a thing, she was alone again and it was just as it should be. Hearing the sound of crunching snow Elsa jumped up from the bench trying to wipe away the newest tears, “who’s there?” Elsa’s voice was on edge and demanding.

The Cold Never Bothered me Anyway - Self Para

The storm around her was only building, everything around her turning to ice as the house she grew up with started to frost over. Elsa turned to look back once more knowing Anna would soon follow she knew there was only thing she could do. Run. Everything in her was growing stronger, the further she got the more she could feel everything in her getting too much for her to control. With each step she took a new patch of ice formed the summer skies turning gloomy while dark clouds gathered above. Elsa could sense the flurries before they began to fall, everything just felt colder. All her life she was told to keep everything in, to conceal her powers from the world, the more she kept in in the stronger she could feel it becoming. Years of pent up emotions finally being released to the world around her. In her mind she was protecting her sister, protecting the ones around her. It was only a matter of time before this happened, she was lucky that it only happened at home, she couldn’t imagine freezing the castle she had come to love, all the students that may have been inside, who may have been hurt. Then she thought of Anna, the only one who was there to see her destruction, the only one who knew what a monster her sister was. She had done it again, left her sister alone the one thing she knew was hurting Anna and she had done it again. Anna would heal from this though, she had friends and how quickly friends can become family when you’re all alone. Anna would learn and maybe one day she would realize that running was the best thing she could do for her. It was a summer night the air should have been warm with a cool breeze, instead the air became thicker with the threat of a storm hanging above. Elsa just kept running, with no idea as to where to go all she knew was she had to get away. What she didn’t know was wherever she went an early winter would follow.
