Um. [ This is harder to say than she thought it would be, gosh. On her end she slides against the wall to the floor, landing against a stand and rattling the plasma television she didn't buy. It's pretty loud. ]

Agh. That's the thing!


...I don't know.

[heiroglyphs]

[Well that sounded violent. Maybe this is more serious than she thought?]

Rapunzel, if you've been kidnapped, I want you to say "I just wanted to talk about the weather".

I might be able to pull your location from the CereVise and come get you.

[corona]

What? I– [ sigh ] Weiss... No...

[corona]

Wait, you'd– You'd help me escape if I were kidnapped? [ Very particular word choice!!! Rapunzel is never saved from anything, only helped. ]

[heiroglyphs]

[Okay, no key phrase. Maybe something else is wrong.]

Of course, why wouldn't I?

[corona]

I–

[corona]

That's so kind! Weiss! You're so kind.

[ SIGHS DREAMILY AT WEISS TOO why is everyone from this world so determined to be amazing?

Oh wait that's a great reminder. Weren't they talking about something. ]

oh bb you look so good in white ;D

[heiroglyphs]

Not really, it's just what any friend would do.

[Leave it to Weiss to casually admit that she's not very kind.]

I don't doubt you'd do the-- wait. Focus, Rapunzel. What's wrong?

LMAO right i feel so weird using those ones

[corona]

Focus! [ AS IF! ] Uh. Right. Focus. Uh.

How exactly am I supposed to focus right now again?

you're just showing your true feelings.

[heiroglyphs]

By taking a deep breath and thinking only about what you wanted to tell me?

[It's like pulling teeth with this girl.]

Look, we can go one word at a time if you want.

1/2 TAPS WATCH better get that battle dress tux weiss....

[corona]

But that - t-that would take forever! [ Unbelievable. This woman augh!!! She's being so patient. So kind. Why? Gothel, Rapunzel knows, had always been... well, she'd listened to Rapunzel's problems but she hadn't listened. Or it hasn't seemed that way a lot of the time. ]

[corona]

No, no, I - I can do it. I'm sorry I worried you... [ HAHA tsundere ice queen worrying about people imagine that. ]

the snazziest tux-dress. all white.

[heiroglyphs]

Would it be easier if we did this in person?

team platinum

[corona]

...



Maybe. Yes.

best team

[heiroglyphs]

Alright. Give me a minute to make myself presentable and I'll meet you at your apartment.

[corona]

Wait, do you even know where I live?

[heiroglyphs]

No, but this is usually the part where you give me that information.

[corona]

Oh! Okay, yes! Yes. Of course.











... Weiss, how do I give you that information? [ SHE'S NEVER GIVEN DIRECTIONS. Where does she start from? ]

[heiroglyphs]

[THIS GIRL HOW ARE YOU EVEN REAL]

If you give me your apartment number, I should be able to look it up.

[Let's not over-complicate this.]

audio ➤ action

[corona]

[ BOOP BOOP insert apartment number here ]

Do you think you'll be able to find it? I've been having some - trouble. With directions–

[ Only then her doorbell rings who the hell could that be. Wait what even is that? She's never heard it before and the sound startles her; for a moment, she even half-convinces herself that it's Jaune at the door, which is probably the worst thing that could ever happen since she's dressed in virtually nothing but a robe (with her hair in the way, robes are so much easier to put on than most things).

Rapunzel squeals, stands, and, panicking, looks around her flat for anything incriminating. She doesn't usually care about impressions remotely, but this is a little like needing to make a good impression before asking her mother something.

LOVE IS WAR. ]

A-AH. J-JUST A MINUTE!!! [ Did you forget the device was on stop shouting. ]

action;

[heiroglyphs]

[Don't worry, Rapunzel, Weiss will wait patiently outside the door. Oh, who are we kidding, she's tapping her foot and huffing impatiently.]

Rapunzel? You okay in there?

1/2

[corona]

[ Oh. It's just Weiss. Whew. ]

[corona]

[ WAIT WEISS IS EVEN WORSE THAN JAUNE OH NO!!! ]

N-NO! Shoot. I meean– Uh. Heh. Y-Yes, dear! [ What? Why did she say that?! It's something her mother says when she's not paying any attention to her but is pretending to be.

It's also something she says when she's trying to distract Rapunzel from something awesome. ]

[heiroglyphs]

[Uh what? Knocking a little harder now.]

Did you just call me "dear"? What are you, my grandmother?

[corona]

[ SOB, she's going to have to do this isn't she. Making herself small (what, to minimise the damage?), she drags her feet to the door and opens it. ]

That was fast. You're... better than I thought at this directions thing. Heh.
