“Of course!  You know how introspective I am!” No, no she does not.  “Nope, not a soul.  You should come next time, though.”

“Huh, seems more like the sort of thing you try to avoid actually...”

“Isa is a good inventor, but well… science is 95% trial and error, as she likes to say.” They’d reached a garden that wasn’t cut up by some angry animal and she took a deep breath, a smile on her lips. “I don’t see any reason to go running.  Corona is pretty peaceful.”

“Oh? I mean Oh! Yes, a beautiful and peaceful island surrounded by ocean with convenience of still being close to land! Have you gotten a chance to take a look around the city yet?”

“Couldn’t really tell ya, Raps. I’ve lived here my whole life. Or, as far back as I can remember, at least.” She rolled her shoulders back. “Maybe it’s not the place, but the people. I mean, things weren’t nearly this exciting here until you came along.”

“O h. Soooooo, I’m the weirdness magnet.” Well that and she sort of encouraged more people to start interacting with the town. Mainly the so called ‘ruffians and thugs’. “My first impression of this place was when it was at the height of celebration and excitement, so I wasn’t sure what it was like before.”

“Do you think the change has been good?”

igotacastle​:

“Absolutely nothing, sweetheart.” Yes he knows that accusing look.  He’d gotten the same when he asked about presents he could get Cass.  “Went for a walk outside town is all.”

“For... most of the day? That’s quite the walk.” Something still seemed, off. She wasn’t sure what, just something. “Did you get to go with anyone, or was this more of a thoughtful introspective stroll?”

“Well, with our luck, the strange deity magic will probably come to us.” She laughed at that. Every day was always an adventure with her. “Let’s just hope that’s a ways off, though. Like you said, the king certainly wouldn’t be happy to hear about it.” They were probably pushing their luck just being out this late.

“Yup! If we don’t find it, it finds us. Such is the way.” She nodded knowingly.  “After years of pretty non-eventful days, it’s been a lot to get used to. Is Corona special or is the world really just always that exciting?”

“Blondie!” He hadn’t seen Rapunzel since yesterday, and that was entirely because he’d hidden in the forest and been skulking around to avoid Cassandra’s possible wrath.  “What have you been up to?”

“Oh the usual, guitar session with Pascal, some painting, switched out my library books, shadowed my dad a bit while he worked.” She held out her hand, holding out a finger for each activity.

“I’m surprised I never ran into you, what have yoooou been up to?”

[princessfryingpan]

laprincesademagia​:

“Ah, no, my sister did… exactly that, is all.  She was trying to make a bouquet for our abuela and it didn’t end well.  Maybe it’s universal?”

“Oh boy, sounds familiar. Maybe every town just has to have their own inventor getting into shenanigans.” Although everyone in Corona seemed to do that even without Varian’s experiments. She was very guilty of it herself. “Glad you haven’t gone running yet, you’d be surprised how many don’t last a day.”

Cassandra did listen to her, smiling as Rapunzel explained. The way her eyes lit up when telling stories and explaining facts she learned was so endearing. She’d never met anyone else with such a love for the world.

“A queen with beautiful hair, huh? Reminds me of someone.” She laughed a little, nudging Rapunzel’s shoulder. “You probably shouldn’t offer your hair to any deities, though. I think you’d have a hard time giving it to them.” Her collection of various broken knives and scissors could attest to that.

“Remind you of someone? Gee, I can’t imagine who.” She nudged her right back. “Unless that really is the only way to cut all of this. We have yet to try strange deity magic.” Strange magic was what got her into this mess though so... maybe best to stay away. “Pretty sure my dad would have an even bigger fit if I went looking though.”

[princessfryingpan]

laprincesademagia​:

“I suppose?  You don’t have any inventors around here who may have set off a crazy bouquet-making machine, do you?” No?  Maybe that was just her.  “Corona is certainly interesting.”

“Interesting.. hah yeah that’s a word.” Then she paused. “Wait.... you didn’t happen to see that did you? I may, potentially know of someone who is capable of making such a thing now that you mention it...”

Maybe it was a bad time to visit?  She had been invited, but there seemed to be a bit of… chaos around.  Not that Rapunzel noticed.

“Princesa?  Are you sure we shouldn’t be concerned about that hedge?” Her new friend hadn’t had an explanation for it.

“Whaaaaat? Psh it’s probably fine. It’s just hmmm.... a little minimalist?” There sure were a lot of branches and leaves left on the ground though. 

“Either someone got a little too enthusiastic trimming, or something wild ran through here... which I’m sure isn’t anything too dangerous or anything to worry about!” Yeah, not the sort of impression she wanted to be making, but pretty par for the course.

[princessfryingpan]

“Huh... the shrubs sure are looking.... very avant-garde today. Not the approach I expected here.”

“Are there really?” Rapunzel was always full of fun facts. “I can’t imagine living somewhere like that. I mean, I like the night, but not that much.”

They had reached the docks now. Cassandra watched her footing carefully, not keen on the idea of taking an unexpected nighttime swim. “You said you chart stars, right? They’re pretty clear tonight. Do they mean anything?” They were certainly very visible, but if they had any special meaning, she wouldn’t know where to begin to find it.

“Oh! You remembered.” It was pleasantly surprising to see that people actually listened to her now. Letting her ramble on about her many interests. Before it had only ever been Pascal and as much as she appreciated it, he couldn’t always engage the same way.

“Let’s see...” She held her hands out, trying to frame out sections of stars. “Oh there’s one, see that kind of triangular cluster over there? Story about that one is there was once a queen with beautiful hair and she promised if her husband was brought back from a dangerous journey she would cut it all off and offer it to the deity who fulfilled her wish. When he did return she fulfilled her promise and the deity brought her hair with them among the stars for all to see.”

He was more than happy to lean back down for a longer kiss.  “Hey, to your credit, there’s precedent for you having crazy schemes,” he said.  “How about we get a souvenir and then sneak past the guards again?”

She wiggled her eyebrows, a prominent smirk on her face. “Exactly why it’s the perfect cover.” Rose in hand, she dramatically held it close. “Farewell for now freedom, it’s been fun today.”
