The 78th Song [Video]

[Rapunzel's working on something in the kitchen with Pascal, humming to herself as she works on a cake.]

Okay, so I have no idea what Mindy wants for her birthday, but you can't really go wrong with chocolate cake, right?

[Pascal, who's been working with a grater that appears comically over-sized next to him, nods eagerly and looks up, giving Rapunzel a reassuring smile. In doing so, he gets distracted long enough to run out of chocolate...and grate his little chameleon hand.]

Pascal! Stop, your hand!

[Pascal pulls back immediately, looking at his slightly cup up hand in horror. Rapunzel sighs, because this is obviously not the first time this has happened, picking up Pascal and giving him A Look as she wraps a small bunch of hair around his hand.]

Honestly, Pascal, I keep telling you not to get distracted in the kitchen...you remember the last time one of us stopped paying attention while baking? You almost got made into a pie.

[Her chameleon friend grimaces at the memory, and Rapunzel just laughs.]

Okay, you know the drill. Just hold still a second.

[And Rapunzel begins to sing, her hair glowing as she does so.]

Flower, gleam and glow...let your power shine...make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine...

[As she's singing and healing Pascal's foot, a voice comes from off-screen.]

And here we see the lovely miss Rapunzel, working her magic on her good friend, Pascal. That's right, folks, the hair isn't just long for show! It's got magic healing powers, too, as you can see here. Wonder why she's kept that under wraps for so long?

[At this, Rapunzel freezes in horror, turning to the camera. She suddenly realizes somebody has been filming her. She's been good at not telling everybody about her hair, only a select few who she trusts/who need the immediate help her hair can provide...and now everybody will know.]

Who said that? How did you get in here? Stop filming this minute!!

[She gets up, quickly putting a confused Pascal on the counter, before going to get whoever is filming this as the video ends.]

Looks like the curse got you, too. [He's worried for you now, 'Punzie. That's the sort of thing that would interest a lot of people.]

[She's worried too, and it shows. She's trying very, very hard not to panic.]

I can't get it taken down, Serrure! Everybody's going to see, everybody's going to know...

Okay. So worst case scenario is they know. And-and maybe bad people come and try to get you to heal them.

Well, we will handle it. And we will plan so that we will not be caught unawares in any situation.

It's more than just healing bad people, though...it's being traded and sold on the black market, and being used to make people young forever, being locked up...I know all the worst case scenarios.

[And she's terrified of all of them.]

Okay. Okay, we'll plan. What do you have in mind?

First, never tell anyone you can make people young forever. Second, we are going to hide weapons around the house and secret escape doors. We can set up a code in case you are being followed or someone breaks in.

And last, we keep track of anyone who shows too much interest in you. [He also plans on asking Pepper for help since she has Avenger connections. Hercules would likely aide a maiden like Rapunzel, too.]

[She nods at all of this, and relaxes a little bit.]

That's a good plan. Okay, I think we can do this.

And there are lots of advantages, like that thing you did while painting? Speak not about it on the open network. That is one way you could maneuver to get away from people.

And yes, the plan is brilliant because I am brilliant.

Rapunzel? Are you okay?

[She is not okay. Not at all. Since that video managed to slink onto the Network, Rapunzel has decided the best thing to do with her secret out is to hide in her closet. Soo, this response is a little dark.]

I'm dead. I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead, everybody knows now, maybe Mother was right, I can't ever go out again...

[Just this face. This is serious business.] Rapunzel, you listen to me. If anyone comes near you for your hair, you let me know.

[And they might...possibly never be seen again. Or at least not for a while.]

This was never supposed to happen! I only told people I trusted, or people who really needed the help! Everybody knows now, they're going to try and use it, just like Mother said...

[She seems to have temporarily forgotten her outstanding issues with her mother, in her panic attack.]

[And Mindy listens, nose wrinkling in dislike. Nope. She liked Rapunzel. No one was going to go near Rapunzel while she was here.]

You tell them if they touch your hair, I will fuck them up.

[Yes, Mindy. Just go on and teach Rapunzel a swear word.]

Don't be upset with yourself, Rapunzel. This City likes to dick with us all.

[Oh, look! Another word Rapunzel shouldn't know!]

It's not your fault.

But it is! If I had just listened and stayed inside where I belonged instead of thinking I could actually have a normal life...

[The poor girl is on the verge of tears now.]

She always warned me that people would use it for their own selfish gain, that people would try to take it and that they'd hurt me for my gift and now it's going to actually happen and everybody knows...
