STANFORD PINES

choosing to believe that rapunzel didn’t check on varian because she got hit by the Bad Writing Curse that left her suspended translucently in the air for the three to five months that passed. she was just ghostly and floating in a comatose state with the words BAD WRITING CURSE printed in times new roman font down the length of her body. and then the three to five months were up and she was suddenly rejuvenated. and nobody else checked on him because they were all so worried about her. and then varian learns of the curse and asks “is that what made me make the ‘sweep you off your feet’ joke?” and everybody says some variation of “no, that was just you being a cringey teenager.” and he goes “dang it” and kicks one of his prison bars.

he just wanted to be involved in the conversation

he just wanted to understand

Ford horrific misunderstanding

Pls don't tag this as stancest, I will fucking cry

I'm back again after like no time at all anyways Rapunzel hcs?

rapunzel <3

-will cry if she sees a tiny and cute enough baby animal. will cry hard enough to worry eugene.

-sometimes has a sleepover in eugene’s room when she has a nightmare (this was before eugene proposed & during the time when frederic would have been extremely against this.) she used to send pascal to eugene, who would sneak into her room, but then rapunzel realized how much worse it’d be for him if he got caught, so now she goes to his. even after they’re married, they have their own rooms, because they like having their space, but they both end up sleeping in one bed, most nights.

-gets yellow-painted tattoos later on. sunflowers and swirls on her shoulders.

-upon seeing quirin in the amber, her mind flashed to gothel’s death, and she felt responsible.

-has picked eugene up before and will do so again at the slightest excuse. they both love it.

-felt guilty for befriending stalyan after eugene filled her in on some details of his & stalyan’s past.

-once she & varian are on more comfortable ground, she makes a point to teasingly annoy him sometimes. he usually ends up pranking her in return. one time, he put salt, instead of sugar, in a cupcake he gave her, and rapunzel proclaimed that that was the worst thing he’d ever done. they both stared at each other for a second before cackling at themselves. (well, varian did a bit more cackling, while rapunzel had a regular sane laugh.)

-spars with cass & the brotherhood sometimes. she doesn’t want to hurt them, but once she gets in the self-defense zone, she can hold her ground very well.

-automatically tries to heal people who’ve gotten hurt somehow and has to work to calm herself when she can’t.

-the ride to the castle to meet her parents for the first time was awful. rapunzel was in shock and kept crying as she continuously realized that gothel was gone, and she almost couldn’t let go of eugene because he’d died right in front of her.

-still has a hard time believing that things can be okay even if everyone isn’t perfectly happy.

-struggles with disassociation and uses painting to ground herself.

-hates lettuce. specifically rapunzel lettuce. i think i’m funny.

-was the officiator at stan and pete’s wedding. was crying so hard with joy that she could barely get the words out. she thinks weddings are the most beautiful thing on earth when nobody is suffering from spider venom or being forced into a marriage.

-has scared several members of nobility, and scares pretty much everyone, when she gets angry. (this is practically canon.)

reblog if you’re a writer who’s very terrible at responding to comments from your readers, but has read them all and loves and appreciates each and every single one of them very dearly

do you ever look at someone and think “i miss the days when i could rely on you”

HIIII ITS ME CYRUS FROM WILDSAGECYRUS🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ i am now in your tumblr ask box.. crazy stuff…

you’re lying! i can see you’re called “anonymous”, and cyrus has never used that name!

okay jokes aside i’m following you now and here, have an ET that was in a counselor’s office

ADD is quite the mental illness to have, because you could simply get into gravity falls as a show. you could merely watch the episodes and have a favorite character.

or you could be consumed by it to the extent that you map out 24 years of ford’s portal adventures, arrange those 24 years into 74 planned-out chapters of a fanfic, and get to work.

^^^^^ precisely. also whoa, I can’t believe you’re on good terms with Hugo.

Varian gets tanner and more freckly in the sun and Hugo just burns. There is no cure. Aloe vera & whatever concoctions Varian can whip up are helpful, but they just reduce him to his pale self again. He is doomed to either be pink/red or pasty. Varian desperately tries not to find it funny.

so weird when your brain just switches hyperfixations for a second. one moment you look at blorbo and are incandescent with joy. then you pick up other blorbo and the first doesn’t look so shiny. and then you are a monster.

fanfic writers are so fucking awesome man. they write novel length fics that are sometimes even better than some published bestselling books written by professional writers. like fanfic writers are professional writers to me and they gift us their masterpieces for free. they give us something we can look forward to after a long day. something from which we can seek comfort when life is hard. something that can be our own little getaway. in a world of capitalism, despite everything, they give us all of these for free. like holy fuck. shout out to every fanfic writer. I wish all fanfic writers a very ‘I love you with all my heart and soul. I thank you from the bottom of my heart’
