[When Rapunzel appears on the screen there is a smile on her face, but her brow is furrowed just enough to give off an air of concern.]

I hope everyone had a good holiday. I've never really celebrated anything like that before, so it was really fun to experience. I've never made gifts for so many people, either. I hope everyone liked them. If you don't, I'd understand though.

[She pauses, and because Rapunzel doesn't know how to filter anything yet:]

Um, I'm looking for Isaac, Derek or Lydia? I found a gift from Stiles at my door...but he didn't come in to say hello. I haven't seen him in several days now. I understand if he's busy and I just haven't seen him, but I want to make sure he was okay. I know the three of you are from the same place, so I thought maybe he would have talked to you? I've tried calling and stopping by his suite. He hasn't answered either. So please, if you could just let me know that he's okay, that would be enough. Thank you.

[ooc: if your character has had even just one conversation with Rapunzel then they likely received a knitted gift; either mittens, a hat, or scarf.]

Comments

[watcheslanterns]

Oh! Um...I haven't mentioned him before?

[afirewithfashion]

Not to me.

[Does somebody have a cruuuuush?]

[watcheslanterns]

I really should have! I'm sorry.

Stiles and I are...dating. [She uses the word carefully, like she's testing it out. "Dating" as it had been described to her wasn't exactly like anything she'd heard about back home so it was still unusual to her.]

[afirewithfashion]

You aren't required to tell me anything.

[He smiles and ducks his head.]

How long have you two been seeing each other?

[watcheslanterns]

I know...but you're my friend. I don't want you to think I'm keeping things from you. [At least not some things.]

I think it's been almost three months now?

[afirewithfashion]

Three months? I can't believe I haven't met him.

[Not like Cinna is 100% truthful with her, either.]

[watcheslanterns]

[Rapunzel buries her face in her hands, embarrassed.]

I'm sorry! I just didn't know how to bring it up.

[afirewithfashion]

[Cinna hasn't actual laughed out loud for Rapunzel, but this gets her a smile, at least.]

That's okay. I'm glad you have someone.

[watcheslanterns]

I just hope that he's alright.

[afirewithfashion]

Because you haven't seen him?

[watcheslanterns]

Yes. I think he's still here...since I received a gift from him, but I haven't seen or heard from him in a while.

[afirewithfashion]

I'm sure everything's alright, Rapunzel.

[watcheslanterns]

I know. I'm sure that you're right.

[afirewithfashion]

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

[watcheslanterns]

I will. Thank you, Cinna.

[afirewithfashion]

Of course.
