Who: Rapunzel and YOU!
Broadcast: Everybody! Everybody!
Action: SS Marsiva
When: Wednesday evening

[ video broadcast/action option ]

[ rapunzel wakes up slowly, like rising from a pleasant mid-afternoon nap that caught her by surprise. but as always, her thoughts quickly catch up with her, and all too quickly it becomes clear that something is very, very wrong. she isn't napping in her bed in her tower - she had left to go see the lanterns! if anything, she should be lying in soft grass - oh, grass, she loved the feeling of grass and this certainly wasn't it. that hadn't all been a dream hadn't? no, no, it couldn't be. it was too wonderful to be a dream!

then her eyes snap open, and a sinking sense of dread chills her to the bone. oh no, this wasn't right. this wasn't right at all.

rapunzel bolts up right, positively leaping off of the cot she's found herself in. her long, golden hair trails behind her as she breaks into a run, away from the cots and through multiple rooms. where was she? what had happened? where were eugene and pascal? maximus? where was she? ]

Eugene! EUGENE! Hello? Anybody? Oh no, oh no, please...

[ then she ends up in the large view bay, in front of a massive window that reveals her location. or at least, what surrounds her location.

she was in the stars. ]

That's - this isn't possible! I'm just dreaming! This isn't -

[ she looks out the window again, eyes wide and unblinking, stepping closer to the glass - only to trip over her own hair. startled, she yelps and folds to the ground, gathering her hair around herself like a protective cocoon. she just keeps staring out the window, her features a mix of fear, confusion, and wonderment. ]

[ yet later video ]

[ after learning a few things about this place - including that it was not, in fact, a dream - rapunzel rallies herself to address the screen that would apparently help her find out if any of her friends were here. she'd never seen anything like this in her life before, but somehow, she knows how to use it. she was glad for that.

however, that doesn't help her know what to say once the broadcast begins. so she clears her throat. once, twice. then coughs, threading her hands through a strand of hair. no, that wouldn't do! you can do this, she tells herself. she straightens her shoulders and faces the screen head-on. ]

HELLO! [ oh dear, that was kind of loud. ] Ahem - sorry. Um...hi. I'm wondering - you see, I was on my way to see these lanterns, and I think there might have been some kind of mistake. I should be at at the castle town right about now, but instead, I'm in the stars...wow, I can't believe I'm in the stars! UM - I'm looking for someone named Eug - Flynn. Flynn Rider. Please, if you've seen him...

[ then, her hand flutters to her mouth. ] Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry! What was I thinking? My name is Rapunzel. It's a pleasure to meet you. Please let me know if you've seen him. Oooor if anyone's even hearing this. Okay. Um...thank you. Bye.

[ crestfallen as she is to hear that, she heaves a quiet sigh and smiles. eugene would find a way here. she just knew he would. ]

Thank you, all the same. I really appreciate it. [ it couldn't hurt to ask, could it? ] Um - do people show up here often? I mean, if he's not here now...he could get here later, couldn't he?

I am unsure. I arrived recently.

[ He can assume that's the case, since it was only last week he and the other showed up on the Marsiva, and now all these others...

He offers a faint shrug. ]

I have been told such, at least..

[ she can breathe a little easier, knowing that. ]

Do you know if - I don't suppose it's possible - can we talk to people who aren't here? Outside of this - oh, what did they call it...oh yeah! - fleet, I mean? If I could just tell him where I am...

[ don't mind her mumbling, she's had a lot to process today. ]

It isn't that I am aware of.

[ Hate to burst your optimism, Punz. ]

[ oh...yeah, that is a bummer. still! she couldn't lose hope just yet. ]

Alright! I'll just have to figure out another way to let Eug - I mean, Flynn know I'm safe. [ he'd worry about her. she knew he would. ] Um - what's your name?

It may not matter. I have been told that time stops where you were taken.

[ He understands her need to let someone know her whereabouts- he felt something of the same. Though now? He's slightly relieved that he can't. ]

...Winter.

[ He's probably one of the least comforting faces to be speaking to Rapunzel, though he does try not to look too menacing... ]

[ he might not be on any christmas cards anytime soon, but rapunzel's just happy to have someone talking to her. new people are fascinating! ]

What an interesting name! I like it.

[ He can't remember the last time he's seen someone so.. enthusiastic and sweet like this. What a princess. ]

Thank you. ..What was your name?

[ literally. ]

It's Rapunzel! Like the flower!
