Ask Her
(Varian is 22, Rapunzel is 26, Cassandra is 30)
Varian: I don’t know anymore, Rapunzel! I thought I was over her but now it’s all coming back. Ever since the banquet I haven’t been able to sleep right. Ugh why can’t i just get over it?
Rapunzel: Varian you don’t need to feel bad about your feelings. Youre one of Cass’ closest friends.
Varian: And that’s exactly why I don’t want to feel like this. I don’t want to mess up anything between her and me. And I don’t want to anger her.
Rapunzel: So are you going to just sit on your feelings like that?
Varian: Well it’s better than making a fool of myself in front of her.
Rapunzel: Is it? Varian, you care about Cass and she cares about you. Even if she doesn’t feel the same way, do you think she’s going to stop being your friend just for that?
Varian: She could.
Rapunzel: Varian just sit down for a second. Think of all the things you two have been through together. Think of all the things you share in common. Think about how you really see her. Now, think. What is it you really want deep down?
Varian: ...I wanna make sure she’s happy.
Rapunzel: And?
Varian: ...And I wanna be with her when she’s happy.
Rapunzel: And?
Varian: ...I wanna be the one who makes her happy.
Rapunzel: Oh Varian. You’re just asking for things you don’t know you already have.
Varian: But now...now I want more... What do I do, Rapunzel?
Rapunzel: Varian. Ask her.
