[Well. Now Rapunzel has a bit of time to figure out these bracelets, she thinks she has the hang of it, and turns it on, brushing some hair behind her ear and seated on her bed in the Freyr house. The girl is likely a very familiar sight to some, considering she was here previously, and all that hair is certainly hard to forget. Which is currently down and trailing around the room, though at the moment mostly piled on the bed behind her. She seems rather pleased with herself for having figured out the bracelet. It's apparent she has already started drawing and writing about some of the things she has seen and learnt here, the people she has met, on some papers she has stuck to the walls of her bedroom.]

Okay. I think that's it.... So. I'm Rapunzel. I kind of only recently arrived here at Asgard. There is still a lot to take in, really. I've loved the festival though. Though I am not sure how often that happens. It was a lot of fun, there was so much to do!

I've heard I've apparently been here before, but I don't remember that myself. Does that...happen a lot, here?

[She seems a little upset at that, mostly guilty about others being so glad to see her and yet she doesn't remember them. She wishes she could. It's one of two main things making her conflicted about this place, really. A hand brushes through her hair, biting her lip, before she asks another question.]

Our powers, the ones we had from home, they're really gone? I was hoping....but I guess I can find other ways to help. If we help bring colour back here to this world, we go back home, right? What happens back home while we're here?

[Because, the thought of Eugene alone in the tower with Gothel is not a particuarly nice one, really. And she has not seen or heard of either of them being here at Asgard yet, if they are around at all. She still feels like she has a million burning questions, but decides that is probably enough for now, so she mumbles an early thanks and turns the bracelet off.]

You knew me before too?

At least once a month what, that new people show up here?

[biifurcatiion]

Yeah you got on my cathe about being irritable and having nothing good to thay about paperclipth. And that'th more often. At leatht once that thomebody thhowth up and they've been here before.

[seethelanterns]

About paperclips....? Oh...so there is still a chance friends from home might turn up here as well.

[biifurcatiion]

It wath a dumb converthation and we aren't revithiting it. [It was literally one of the strangest things anybody ever talked about.] But yeah there'th pretty good oddth, thometimeth. Dependth on how badly you want them, maybe.

[seethelanterns]

If you say so? I guess the only thing is to wait and see if Eugene might show up then.

[biifurcatiion]

I do thay tho, and unlike you I have the benefit of knowing that it'th true without having to relearn the whole thtupid thythtem all over again.

And who the heck ith Eugene?

[seethelanterns]

I guess so.

And Eugene...he's a friend back home. He took me to see the lanterns at the kingdom.

[biifurcatiion]

Doeth he go by that or doeth he have a lethh dorky name he might uthe to cover up the thhame of being named Eugene? Becauthe I would.

[But actually he's looking to see if anybody named that was ever here.]

[seethelanterns]

Oh, you mean how he first told me his name was Flynn Rider?

[biifurcatiion]

Yeah, that guy. [And, because they were- ok, if not friends, he'll do her the favor of checking.]

He wath here, thomewhere around a human year ago. But he'th not anymore.

[seethelanterns]

Oh, he was? I guess he must have been sent home then.

[biifurcatiion]

Yeah we're talking bathically at the beginning of all of thith, there'th pretty much nobody left from that time but me.

[seethelanterns]

That must be kind of lonely, in a way. But I guess you've kept making new friends over time the more people show up here to help, right?

[biifurcatiion]

I actually try to dithcourage people from talking to me on a regular bathith.

[Sollux that is a bold faced lie.]

[seethelanterns]

Ah. Of course.

[Yeah. She. Totally sees through that, after her experiences with Flynn back home and all. But she isn't mad about it, more amused.]

[biifurcatiion]

I'm thorry, ith that tharcathm?

[As though he doesn't know it's bullshit himself. As though everyone doesn't know that it's a steaming load of bullshit.]

[seethelanterns]

Yes. It is.
