Why would someone choose to go grey?

I'd miss you too, Alice. You've helped me see and do a lot here.

[madcuriosity]

You're one of my closest friends here.

[seethelanterns]

It's part of what I find so amazing here, so many different people we would never get a chance to meet back home, you know? You're a pretty good friend to me too, Alice. I am glad we got to meet here in Asgard.

[madcuriosity]

Yes, I'm very glad we got to meet too, Miss Rapunzel, you're simply lovely. And I can't lie, I love brushing your hair as well! It's so beautiful and soft! Ah but, that isn't what I like most about you, it's just one of the many things.

[seethelanterns]

[She just chuckles a little at that gushing over her hair.]

I'm just glad you don't seem to mind helping me with it. I don't know if I could manage to do it all myself every day with braiding it all the time before I go outside. You've been such a big help, Alice, really you have.

[madcuriosity]

Well, friends help one another! So don't be silly about it. Besides, by getting to help you braid it, I get to play with it every day! [So really, they're both winning in this situation, Rapunzel.] And you can do so many amazing things with your hair! I can't believe you can pick things up with it or yourself for that matter!

[seethelanterns]

I guess so. I've just always been able to use my hair like that, since it's just kept growing. I liked using it to get up higher to paint the walls back home. I'm just glad you don't think it's...weird or anything.

[madcuriosity]

Weird? I'm not sure why I would. Soft yes, long most certainly, but weird or strange, Miss Rapunzel is not really one of those words I would ever thing to use to describe such pretty tresses.

Why, has someone done so?

[seethelanterns]

Really? I just...I know my hair is....a lot longer than everyone else's I've met. But nobody has outright said it was weird or anything. I think they have just been curious about it.

[madcuriosity]

Well, it's a lot of hair to be curious about, Miss Rapunzel. But it's not as if you're a fish or a frog.

[seethelanterns]

A frog? [She can't help but chuckle at that, remembering Eugene calling Pascal a frog.]

[madcuriosity]

Mhm! In Wonderland there was a Footman Fish and a Footman Frog! The latter was quite useless about it, too.

[seethelanterns]

A footman?

[madcuriosity]

Do you not know what a footman is, Miss Rapunzel?

[seethelanterns]

No. What's a footman?

[madcuriosity]

Oh! Well, he's a male servant. A footman can do all sorts of tasks!

[seethelanterns]

A servant?

[madcuriosity]

Don't tell me you don't know what that is either?

[seethelanterns]

No? I don't think we had one of those back home in the tower. [She is so sheltered. Being outside and coming here only reinforces that for her but she is trying. Asking questions and trying to learn.]

[madcuriosity]

Oh ah... well... A servant is someone you pay to do a certain task. Or sometimes to do a series of task. Like... hmm... oh! Alright, you might pay a servant to tend to the fireplace and keep the kitchen clean. Or you might have a servant to cook your meals for the day, that's when they get called the cook. You may have a servant who tends to the whole house! But they are usually the most well paid, I think.

Does that make sense?

[seethelanterns]

I think I get the idea. We didn't have anything like that back at the tower, I did most of the cleaning and cooking myself.

[madcuriosity]

Oh! Well, not everyone has servants. Some people have no servants, some people like the queen have thousands! It really just depends, Miss Rapunzel!

[seethelanterns]

Oh.... [Well. In that case she might end up familiar with servants back home if she manages to reunite with her real parents.]

[madcuriosity]

Oh? Are you alright now?

[seethelanterns]

Oh, yes. I'm fine. I just...realized something, is all.
