Rapunzel & Flynn - 05/2013

[disneygoldmine]

Rapunzel has spent her life locked in a tower, but that’s not her only secret. Her long, golden hair has magical powers–all 70 feet of it! When the kingdom’s most-wanted bandit unexpectedly stumbles into Rapunzel’s tower, the pair embark on a fantastic journey that will uncover more than they ever expected.

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

TANGLED! Who knew? Right?

First, let me introduce myself.

My name is Chris Sonnenburg and I am the Executive Producer of the new "Tangled Before Ever After" series coming in 2017 to Disney Channel and a huge fan of "Tangled" the feature film.

Last week a majority of our cast was announced and since then people have been talking quite a bit about the show so I thought I had better start keeping track of this all in some way. I'll try and post here as much as possible and tell you guys as much as I can. I have read a few of the posts on here and realize that details of the show are very scarce at the moment and people are interested in and concerned about "The Hair". Believe me, so are we. That being said, all I CAN tell you right now is that we are trying to make something very special for you all and that we have some of the most talented artists and designers and writers in the business with a single goal of making this show as great as it can be. That means that A) We HAVE in fact seen the movie and do know how it ends and B) Do plan on answering the big question, "How?". But if I did that here, trust me, it wouldn't be NEARLY as cool as it will be when you see it when our stories actually air. So be patient, take this journey with me and we'll all have a great time with these amazing characters that we all love and care so much about.

Now, when does "Rogue One" come out again?

Complicated Situations // Rapunzel and Flynn (Modern!AU)

12) Somebody abruptly left your muses in charge of their baby, and people keep mistaking them for the parents.

(( this is literally too perfect and needed its own post :″D))

“Err…” Rapunzel almost held her breath, everything just seeming to happen so quickly. She wasn’t sure where exactly in the conversation did she agree to the favor being asked to her.

Yet here she was, holding a month old baby. 

Long story short, Big Nose wanted to go on a “post-spontaneous-long overdue-romantic-honeymoon-part 4″ with his special little lady (which she was fairly certain didn’t exist? The honeymoon, not his wife, mind you).  While Rapunzel was flattered he didn’t trust any of the pub thugs and choose her to babysit, she didn’t expect it to be right away.

The instructions he gave were given swiftly, at least half of them just passing through her head given her shock. Before she knew it, he was dashing off with such rush that she thought resembled a horse finally being set free. 

Rapunzel was left staring agape at the entrance of the bar, wondering how in the world did she manage to end up in these complicated situations.  @the-best-rogue

[the-best-rogue-blog]

“Ow- Hey!” He called out when Big Nose rushed out from the bar, nearly knocking him. And as he turned, he nearly walked right into Rapuzel. Flynn found her standing between the door frame, a bundle in her arms and she’s blocking his way in. He was supposed to trade in some….er…items with a few of the thugs there and his own bundle in his arms are already too heavy and he needed to set it down. But with Rapunzel standing there, looking so lost and shocked, he can’t rea- Huh? “Earth to Rapunzel. You okay there Blondie?” He sounded worried for a moment. Something about her looking so confused and lost triggered him to be worried of the girl. Doesn’t help when there were soft, gurgling sound coming from her.

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

Rapunzel didn’t even notice his presence at first. Her gaze wandered far away to where Big Nose had left. Perhaps if she focused well enough, she could probably catch up to him and take the favor back….

The idea died as soon as it started. Even if she wanted to, she didn’t have the heart to stop her friend from living one of his dreams.Oh, kindness is a weakness it seems…

She was brought back to reality by a familiar voice. Almost instantly, a faint color painted her face. Whether it was from embarrassment or his presence, one couldn’t tell.

“H-Hey…” She said sheepishly, which was odd considering her usual enthusiastic greetings. Looking down, she shifted her hold to cradle the baby at a more comfortable angle. It was enough to reveal his face from being tucked on her bosom. “You wouldn’t happen to know what to do with… well… this, would you?”

[the-best-rogue-blog]

Flynn stared at the baby as if he had never seen such a creature before. Is it hers? Of course not, Eugene! he scolded himself and feeling silly afterward for even thinking that. Rapunzel is an innocent girl, so, the baby mustn’t be hers.

“Where did you get that?” He asked aloud this time, shifting his arms to adjust the items in his arms as if it could help in making it look more comfortable for Rapunzel to hold the baby.

Flynn shook his head, eyes still trained on the smaller human being. “Nope, no, never dealt with a baby before.Toddlers, sure, but not an infant. They seem so….fragile, no one trusted me with one. In fact I don’t trust myself with one-”

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

He was right, it did look fragile.

She didn’t realize it, but she was unconsciously imitating the youngling’s face as she shifted her hold once more. It was obvious that she was not adept at this. “Big Nose. He went on... well, a spontaneous trip.”

The childish pout was still on her face when she looked up at him. “That’s a bummer. I would’ve appreciated some help.” It was then she noticed that he had a load of his own. Realizing she was blocking the way, she quickly stepped to the side. “Ah! Sorry, I didn’t know you were trying to get through...”

5. Your muses are at the park together and wow… everyone around them is making out. …awkward…

Rapunzel had been more than excited to visit this place called a “park”. She heard that it was a place filled with trees, animals, even small ponds! It did sound similar to her last living arrangements. However, it had been quite some time since she left the tower. And even then, she barely had a chance to explore the world below her.

A park had all these and people no less - a huge marker of difference which only seemed to elevate her excitement! It took real effort not to skip towards her destination, knowing it was considered odd in society’s point of view. Fitting in was difficult, but Rapunzel tried. She really did.

“Uhm.. Excuse me!!” She decided to call out, tapping a man to get his attention. “Would you happen to know where the ‘park’ is?” 

[cassim-the-king-of-thieves]

“Excuse me!!” 

There was a tap on his arm, snaring his attention. “Would you happen to know where the ‘park’ is?

Halting his steps, Cassim pivoted around to face a young teen, maybe older (it was hard to tell), with a wide beam, seemingly eager both in spirits and in manner. He smiled at her level of enthusiasm. She reminded him of Aladdin, who couldn’t wait to explore and uncover new wonders. 

And this is first, me being asked for directions instead of the other way around. 

Cassim had been to the park before and immensely enjoyed the view and the aura of tranquility that surrounded the place. Even if children rambunctious played nearby, their noises added a certain charm to the atmosphere–for a time, that is. Even as a father, there was only so much he could take of random screaming and temper tantrums. 

“See that strange, ornate silver sculpture up ahead, the one that sort of looks like a whirlwind of birds?” he began, pointing straight ahead of them. “That signals one of the entrances to the park so once you go past the sculpture, you’re in the park. Along the way, there will be gardens on either side of you so there’s plenty to see while you walk on the main path.”

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

You know from a slight angle, the person kind of looked like Flynn. Mostly because they both had hair on their face and had more defined upper bodies. Rapunzel had always found that sort of odd… But she guessed that those were much less of a sacrifice than having sharp and pointy teeth. 

Anyway…

She glanced towards where he pointed in awe. Rapunzel wore her heart on her sleeves - making her actions not only childlike but predictable. Her mouth dropped into a little “o” to express her fascination.

From where she stood she could already breathe the scent of moss and freshly trimmed grass. Those by themselves told her she was near, but finally seeing visual confirmation was more than enough to send her reeling. 

Like… literally.

After his explanation, she bid a loud but sincere “thanks!” Unfortunately, as she stepped towards her destination, her toe snagged on the uneven pavement. Her foot caught in her skirt, making her lose her balance and toppling forward. “ACK!”

[cassim-the-king-of-thieves]

“Be care—” His warning came far too late to prevent the young girl from tripping over but Cassim’s reflexes were still rapid and spot-on. Leaping forward, he grabbed the girl’s wrist and pulled her back, bringing her upward and away from the cobblestone pathway. 

That would have been a nasty fall if she collided completely with the stones.

“I’m sorry, I forgot to mention the path to and through the park is a little uneven so you’re going to have to watch your step,” the former king of thieves explained, hoping there wouldn’t be a repeated accident for her. However, with long hair like that, she could be a walking disaster simply waiting to happen. “Are you all right?” 

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

Rapunzel blinked. It took a while to register what happened but when she did, a smile once again plastered her face.

“Yes! Thank you, you saved me.” One would think she would ought to be embarrassed but it was quite the contrary. 

Regaining her composure, she balanced once more on her two feet, fixing a crumple on her skirt simultaneously. “You have very good reflexes.” Like someone she knew... “Maybe you should come with! My friend didn’t want to and well...” Her shoulders shrugged, “his loss! I hear there are a lot of butterflies this time of the year. With your reflexes, I bet you can catch one.”

When will my life begin?~

[the-best-rogue-blog]

"It's quite stunning, isn't it?"

[the-best-rogue-blog]

He looked at her like he had lost her mind - which, she probably does at the moment, with the wild looks in her eyes and the horrified gasp was any indication. He didn’t miss how she clumsily yet effectively snatched the frying pan from her. Scary. He tried to process the things that she told him. Well, sure, some bugs does make you itch upon in contact with them (Like, caterpillars are one of the examples. Ew.). “Blondie, ladybugs aren’t….dangerous” He waved his hand around, making a show of his point, his hand “See? My skin is still pretty smooth and healthy. The worst a ladybug can do to me is…..nothing basically”

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

Rapunzel pursed her lips, looking conflicted as to whether she should believe him or not. Still, he hadn’t earned her trust - especially after that scene. She wasn’t sure if her hair cured dangerous bug bites but she definitely wasn’t going to risk finding out.  “Lady…bug?” What an odd set of words. Since when did bugs have genders? Shaking her head, she figured now wasn’t the time to combine weird words. Ridiculous Flynn. “Say what you will, I’m still not touching one.”  “Especially one with spots!” It was basic common sense. Many venomous animals had spots - she read it in her books. Surely Flynn would know that.

[the-best-rogue-blog]

“Come on, Blondie, it’s not that bad” nor scary, he wanted to add but he doesn’t want risking another bump on his head. The way she handles the pan seems like she’s ready to hit on anything that’ll move. Including him.

“Not everything is dangerous” he sighed and draped an arm around her shoulder, steering her back into their long journey in the great outdoors “Sure, some of them are dangerous and filthy and hairy, but things like ladybugs and butterflies are pretty innocent”

He wondered where she got all these ideas from anyway. For someone who had never been to the outside world before, it occurred to him that she have all these biased ideas of the world. 

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

Rapunzel visibly tensed at the sudden contact. Hopefully the rise in her shoulders would tell him she was feeling uncomfortable. 

It didn’t. 

Sighing, she drew her gaze to the side. For a speech about how the world was ‘not that bad’, she was ironically feeling more anxious. 

“You’re just saying that.” There was a brief pause, as if she was contemplating on her own words, over-analyzing. “You want me to believe that.” Her eyes lifted to look at him, now narrowed accusingly “You’re up to something.”

Off with His Head! : Kit’s Ball || Rapunzel & the Hyenas

8. OH CRAP YOU BROKE ONE OF THE KING’S STATUES! WHAT NOW??

As soon as Banzai had seen it, he wanted to do one thing (after helping himself to the buffet, obviously): Sliding over the shiny, polished marble floor for the longest possible stretch; the winner would … he or she would be allowed to pick one of the cloying fairy cake and relish the losers’ disgusted expressions. — Banzai however also thought that this wouldn’t be much of a punishment for Ed, seeing how he had been the only hyena to lick his lips after they had each tried a cake.  Maybe Ed would win the competition so his victory was a loss at the same time.  Oh, Banzai would savour the fairy cake if he would see Ed’s sulky face. After he had rinsed out his mouth, naturally.

Another thing he had done was inviting the girl on whose hair Shenzi had stepped on – perhaps it had been deliberately, perhaps it hadn’t; she had been staring at the magnificent head of golden-blonde hair with a mixture of admiration and envy (even though Banzai told her she would look awful with a light-coloured coat … which, judging by her snarling, she didn’t exactly like to hear) – to join in their little competition, and so far … no one had really stuck out.  Ironically, Ed indeed was in the lead, and Banzai realised that he wouldn’t care if Ed would enjoy the ‘punishment’, his desire to win was too overpowering. He would show them, Ed, Shenzi, and … Goldie?  Banzai honestly had forgotten it, it wasn’t very short, it didn’t sound familiar, and it was, bluntly said, a weird name. Whatever her name was, Banzai would beat her.

Wink at his friends on the sideline; Shenzi countered with an annoyed eye-roll, Ed stuck out his tongue at him. He certainly wouldn’t do this with the fairy cake. Take a run-up … – SLIDE! Feel the smooth, cool marble under your paws, move your body to a presumably aerodynamic pose, feel just great. – Slide towards the larger-than-life statue of the current, moustached king. Bang your head against the statue, bang it hard. … Try to ignore your friends’ derisive laughter.

“Hey, Banzai!  I wouldn’t say this counts, your ending really wasn’t graceful”, Shenzi sneered, surverying her friends picking himself up, shaking it off, immediately holding his head, grimacing … Not seeing how the statue had been shifted, started wobbling, shifted more, tilted towards her friend who still seemed to be dizzy … “Hey!  Banzai!”  Neither did he seem to notice the concern, the distress in her voice …

Shenzi speeded, slid across the corridor, towards her friend, knocked him out of the way, fell onto him – at least the statue didn’t. Nah, it instead fell onto the floor, shattering with the loudest bang Shenzi had ever heard. She quickly picked herself up, stared at Ed and Blondie at the other end of the corridor, stared, glared at Banzai, whose entire fault this dilemma was … A piece of the statue landed right next to her; she flinched as she saw the head, the king’s marmoreal head glowering at her. “… Anyone have an idea what to do know?”

@i-do-like-ducklings

[i-do-like-ducklings-blog]

It didn’t take far long into the ball that Rapunzel found herself speechless. She obviously had never been to a ball before. It showed in her mannerisms, flabbergast expressions, and most especially, attire. In a room full of royalties, it was difficult not to feel out of place.

At least she knew Flynn was invited as well. However, the former seemed to be busy interacting with other guests and she couldn’t find it in her to interrupt. Truth be told, she was always a little envious at how smooth he could be with words. Steeling herself, she decided that now was the opportune time to practice her people skills.

Luckily for her, she didn’t have to be the one to start a conversation. Though it did take a few panicked thoughts and a quick glance around the room for a potential weapon.

WHAT ARE THOSE???

Her mind had raced as she was approached by three... three what exactly? Horses? Bears?? CANNIBALS??? No matter how much she tried, nothing in her schema could identify what they were. As per human nature, she immediately labeled them as dangerous.

That line of thought dissipated when they started talking - in English. Fear turned to fascination and finally intrigue.

They were asking her something unusual. Sliding through the floors? Well... she did do that a lot in the tower while cleaning. Back then she had supplies, like brushes she could glide on.

But even on her bare feet, Rapunzel definitely felt the difference in surface. Her tower floor was wood, full of ridges. This floor could make her hair sweep across a room with just wind.

Perhaps it was the childlike personality of hers or her genuine need to discover new exciting things that made her agree. She laughed with them. She glided with them (taking extra caution not to get her hair tangled on anything that looked expensive). She jumped, she giggled, she flew.  She felt fast on her feet. But apparently not enough -  and she cringed with them as stone hit marble.

Face pale, she said the one thing that came into mind.

“Flynn would know what to do...”

Her voice was merely a mumble but to her, it made perfect sense. Flynn was practically a self-taught expert in the field of covering up.

Disney Aesthetic: Rapunzel

I’ve been looking out of a window for eighteen years, dreaming about what I might feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it’s not everything I dreamed it would be?
