Varian x Rapunzel’s Sister! Reader
What if…a girl was born with the powers of the moonstone?———————————————-
(r/n) means rabbit name bro i named the rabbit Regina but you can name it whatever bc google told me i had to give you all “agency”
Sun peeked in through your window and shined onto your face as you woke up. “Morning already?” You sighed, looking rather disappointed to have to wake up. “Well, better get to cleaning up.”
You rushed around your room, changing out of your simple purple nightgown and opting for a simple blue dress and some house shoes. You’ve been stuck here your whole life, ever since she disappeared. It’s not terrible, and you have servants, but there’s more that’s out there. You know there is. You just haven’t reached it yet.
You walked over to where your pet rabbit, (R/N) was sleeping and gently shook her awake. She hopped onto your shoulders as you gave her some snacks.
“Come on, we’ve got stuff to do.” you said as you tied your hair up. Your hair was long. Like long, long. Really, really long. You would cut it but it’s….complicated.
Someone tried to cut it when you were a baby, at least that’s what you heard through the walls when the staff thought no one was listening. Itty bitty baby you got upset when they tugged on your hair a bit too hard and the stylist dropped down dead. They didn’t try again for a long time after that. Not until you were old enough to control your emotions.
Once they did try again, it didn’t end so well. The scissors broke, the knife broke, and your parents wouldn’t let them try any other weapons. Your long hair terrified them. That’s how they lost their first daughter, what if they lost you too. That’s why you couldn’t leave.
It was just out of love, you knew that, but you were almost fourteen and it’d been years since you stepped foot outside the castle, and even just roaming the halls had taken some convincing.
Oh well, no time to reminisce. You picked up your broom and began to sweep. Your parents always questioned why you did it, you had servants to do it for you, but you truly didn’t mind. The only problem was your long, silver-black hair which seemed to drag on the ground, but even then, you’d always just tie it up real neat. It was surprisingly light.
As (R/N) stood on your shoulders, she looked at outside, then you, then pouted. You looked over at her then smiled. “Come on, (R/N). I like it in here, and so do you.” The rabbit simply gave you annoyed look, to which you sighed. “Look, you can go outside later.” (R/N) frowned. “Alright, alright, just let me finish my chores first.” you conceded.
You sighed, looking at your mess of a room and began to sing a small tune. “7 am, the usual morning line up.” you sung, looking at your clock. It was quite late for you.
“Start on the chores then sweep til the floors all clean.” Luckily, your room isn’t nearly as big as your parents, otherwise weekly cleaning would take all day. “Polish and wax, do laundry and mop and shine up.” you hummed as you threw your dirty laundry down the chute then began to mop, then polish, the floors.
“Sweep again, and by then it’s like..7:15!?” That was way faster than you expected. Well, for the most part, the room is clean, so you opened (R/N)’s little door, and let her out. It’s not like your room was on the first floor, but your parents had a little door to the garden installed for your rabbit. If even they knew that rabbits needed sunlight, why didn’t they think you needed it? You were awfully pale.
You walked over to your bookshelves and picked up a book on alchemy, then a few more because maybe one wouldn’t enough. “And so I’ll read a book, or maybe two, or three.” Once, you finished reading, you decided to move onto painting!
You had lots of paintings on your walls. Ones of you and you friend, some of your parents, and some just of (R/N). You picked up your brush. “I’ll add a few new painting to my gallery.”
You had a plethora of hobbies actually. “I’ll play guitar, and knit, and cook, and basically just wonder: when will my life begin?”
Eventually, your parents called you down for lunch, before you resumed your daily activities. “Then after lunch, it’s puzzles and darts and baking. Paper mache, a bit of ballet and chess.” You played chess against yourself. Yes, it was weird, but there was no one else here to play with. “Pottery and ventriloquy, candle making!” You seriously need new hobbies.
“Then I’ll stretch, maybe sketch, take a click, sew a dress!” Lots of your dresses were hand sewn. Your mother had received one too many dresses made by your hand. “And I’ll re-read the books if i have time to spare.” They were you favorite books after all. “I’ll paint the walls some more, I’m sure there’s room somewhere!” You’ve started painting the walls leading up to your room. There is no more space.
“And then I’ll brush, and brush, and brush, and brush my hair, stuck in the same place I’ve always been.” You sighed at the sight of your room. You loved it, but there’s more to see, more to do. Well, off to brushing your hair, which took like…3 hours.
Once you finally finished, you were content with just running around until you were tired. “And I’ll keep wondering, and wondering, and wondering, and wondering: ‘when will my life begin?’”
You had taken a stance at the window, staring out at the sky. (R/N) came back in, and you quickly gave her a nuzzle before scooping her up and placing her on your shoulder as you stared out your window dreamily. “Tomorrow night, lights will appear, just like they do on her birthday each year. What is it like, out there where they glow? Now that I’m older, father might just let me go.”
