poly_chromatic | The 73rd Song [Video]

This can't go on much longer, it can't...

[Rapunzel's barricaded herself in her room, locked the door behind her and blocked the window with her dresser.

Despite her efforts to keep the ghouls now terrorizing the City out, they're still near, and one in particular is tormenting her, tapping and scratching at her window.]

Rapunzel...let down your haaaair~! Mother needs you to sing for her...you don't want Mother to waste away out here, do you?

No, no, go away! You're not real, you can't be here, not like this....

[Mother Gothel, rotting away, is terrorizing her daughter, doing everything in her power to get to Rapunzel.]

I just need your hair, flower...sing for Mother and it'll be all over...Mother knows what's best for you, so let down your hair and let me iiiinn~!

GO AWAY!!!

[Rapunzel sobs and curls into herself. She's been hiding in her for about a day now, but she's running low on supplies and she'll need to leave soon, but if she leaves, she'll be exposing herself to the ghoul of her 'mother'...]

Go away, go away, go away...maybe...Maybe if I move quickly I can get someplace safe without her noticing...why didn't I grab my frying pan before coming in here...

[ooc: Open action, video, whatever. Gothel is in a particularly interesting state of decay; specifically, she's a wizened old woman who's skin is crumbling off like dust.

[At this height, most people wouldn't be there. Setsuna has his wings out, though, flapping enough to keep him hovered near Rapunzel's window.]

Hey! You need some help there? This is a bad time to be surrounded.

[Rapunzel pokes her head out of the window, uncertain.]

She won't leave...

[Flap. Flap.] If you can get her to go away, why don't you leave? I can take you out of there.

Really?

I just...don't want her following me...

[He bites his bottom lip. Has no one told her?]

Um, well. There's only one way to really get rid of her permanently, far as I can tell, and others have seen.

I could fly you out of here, but she'll probably still find us.

Rapunzel...?

Jinora.

[Jinora doesn't need to worry about this...]

Are you okay...? You're safe somewhere, no ghouls?

I am. Do you need to be rescued?

I don't know...I'm not sure if she'll get in...

But she could get in?

Rapunzel!

[And this is every single protective instinct flaring up at once.]

Where are you? I'm coming.

[Rapunzel squeaks a little as she talks.]

I'm barricaded in my room...but she keeps trying to get in through the window...

I'll be there soon.

[And so he is - Rapunzel might be able to hear an Incendio! outside her window, followed by a burst of flames. A moment later, there's a brisk bout of knocking.]
