[1st orb]

[70ftandcounting]

[ It...took Rapunzel some time to figure out how to work the orb; her hands were trembling so much that she'd dropped it several times before she'd even managed to get a good look at it.

When her message comes through, her voice is shaky and her eyes are narrowed in frustration and a bit of fear. What a way to start her birthday… ]

I--I need to know where I really am, what's going on. Please. It's...it's really important that I go home right away. [ A deep breath. ]

F-Flynn? Are you here?

...

Oh my gosh, Mother really is going to kill me...

Comments

I do it all the time :3

[70ftandcounting]

I...I don't know where I'd go. [ and wherever she is...she's not even sure it's really...actually her birthday anymore.]

Or...where I'd find cake.

[shiromadoushi]

The cake's the easy part! There's a bakery in town, and if there isn't one there, I can make one!

[70ftandcounting]

Really?!

[ aaaah okay it's not that hard to get Rapunzel excited about her birthday again. As weird as this all is, this is a really important day for her -- so she hates to lose it, even...even if she misses the lanterns.

Though maybe... ]

Do...do they have floating lights here, maybe?

[shiromadoushi]

I think we can find some~

[[aka, he can totally make some. Even if they may not be what she's expecting, floating little bubbles of white light should be a good stand in.

Birthdays were important things, after all. ]]

[70ftandcounting]

[ that gets a squeal-- ]

Really?!

[shiromadoushi]

[[In reply he smiles almost impishly]] You're at the castle right? Look out the window.

[[and he'll just be casting a few bubbles of light spells and send them floating towards the castle. He's not sure which window she'll be looking out of, so he'll just send enough of them slowly circling so that she'll be sure to spot them.]]

[70ftandcounting]

...Alright!

[ She hurries over to the window to look out -- they look like floating lanterns/lights are they floating--

OH MY GOD THEY ARE FLOATING LIGHTS.

He can probably hear the happy shriek from wherever he is. ]

[shiromadoushi]

[[Being that Hero House isn't very far from the castle, indeed, he can, and has to cover a small laugh.

Time to go see if he can spot which window she's at and go for a visit~]]

[70ftandcounting]

[ she's easy to spot, she's leaning out and pointing, eyes wide. LOOKAT THE LIGHT GUYS LOOK AT THEM. ]

Oh man this got adorable so quick :D

[shiromadoushi]

[[and he can't help but laugh again before waving up at her.

Best use of his magic since he'd arrived in this place. Seriously.]]

oh god it so did

[70ftandcounting]

[ movement attracts her attention and she looks down and beams, waving frantically then holding a finger up.

Don't mind her she's just going to find a hook and jump out the window using her hair. He needs a proper thank you after all. ]

Birthday salvaged? :)

[shiromadoushi]

[[He startles for about two seconds before realizing that holy crap, her hair is long enough to let her do that. Wow.

Heading across the bridge over moat now, he'll meet her half way!]]

totally |D

[70ftandcounting]

[ she lands with a soft thump and takes off running in his direction. no worries, she's not leaping to her death! ]

[shiromadoushi]

[[That she can run with that hair...]]

Did you get to see them?

[[as if he has to ask]]

[70ftandcounting]

I did, I did!> How did you do that?!

[shiromadoushi]

Magic!

[70ftandcounting]

Magic...

[ that he ISN'T HIDING....she is so enchanted ]

Can you do anything else?

[shiromadoushi]

A few things, un! Most of it isn't very showy other than things like the light spell. [[admits a bit sheepishly]] So it's not very impressive. But still pretty useful!

[70ftandcounting]

Oh no, I think it's incredible! It's amazing.

[shiromadoushi]

[[and now he's looking embarrassed and rubbing the back of his neck]] It is pretty great, yeah. I never could do anything like this back home either, which makes it even more special.

[[Well. His first home anyway. The City was his second home, after all]]

[70ftandcounting]

Really?

[ CHINHANDS ]

Sooo...what all can you do?

[shiromadoushi]

Things like healing, shielding, temporarily boosting someone's stats... things like that. Sometimes I figure out new things too!

[70ftandcounting]

[ this is Rapunzel dragging you to sit somewhere. ]

Really? You do? That's amazing!

[shiromadoushi]

[Oh dear. Well, not like he's going to protest... (since he'd all but done similar back in the City sometimes with people...)]]

Aaa-- it's not really that much... It's just mostly really helpful.

[70ftandcounting]

[ don't mind the chameleon coming out to investigate. ]

Well, helpful is a good thing. It's still impressive, in my opinion.
