Trigger Warning: Death/(Mostly Accidental) Murder | Around Town

[hairflyingheartpounding]

(ooc| Yes you read that right. :| I do things in extremes. Backstory is here; she'll be far more upset than violent, baring anything unexpected. Replies from outforrevenge because I didn't have enough upset!icons.)



[She couldn't believe it when she woke up back in Mayfield; when the memories came flooding back to her. It was too much, all the old feelings and experiences missing the happiness and then hell she'd gone through back in Corona. The betrayal and the horrible, horrible things she'd done, or couldn't stop...

The first thing she'd had to do was get out of the house. Once that was done, she found herself wandering, aimlessly, about town, head down, brain desperately looking for a way out of this. Not that she'd known some magic word last time, or anything.

She brings her hands up to clutch her arms, hugging herself. How can this be happening? And how could anyone who knew who she was possible understand her now?]

[truffulacide]

[come on, 'Punzel. you didn't think he'd let you leave that easily, did you?

tracking her through town has been tough, even irritating, but not impossible. every time he thinks he catches a glimpse of her walking around a corner, he runs in that direction prepared to reach out to her, but -

nothing. either she's one step ahead of him or he's starting to see things. he'll chalk the last up to frayed nerves; he has those in abundance today. everyone's acting so weird. it's ridiculous.

when he finally does catch up to her, his first impulse is to ball his fists up at his sides, trying to bite back a snarky, petulant yell.]

You could've said something before you left, y'know! [- although it's hard to say just what occurrence he's referring to: her leaving the house today in a huff, or her being droned. from this Once-ler's perspective, that last bit is the only thing his and Rapunzel's memories match up with.]

[outforrevenge]

[She freezes at that voice and whirls to face him, glaring. Of everyone in the town she doesn't want to face...

He's the worst. He's the one who makes her feel like a total traitor, when she's not even sure what side she's supposed to be loyal to.]

I didn't want to talk to you!

[truffulacide]

Well, I wanna talk to you!

[he's well aware that he's yelling, making a scene even, but do you think he cares? nope.]

Who...Who do you think you are? Leaving like that! Acting like a - a nutcase! What's your deal?!

[outforrevenge]

You don't know what happened! I-I can't just come back! You don't know!

[And it's not a story she's keen on reliving, but she'll tell it if it will get him away.]

[truffulacide]

[he takes a few steps forward, reaching out to grab her by the arm before she runs off again.]

So make me understand! Don't you get it? I want to know!

[why would she ever think otherwise? unless -]

Don't you think I care?

[outforrevenge]

Of course I think you care! And I care about you -- cared, CARED!

That's why I need to get away from you!

[truffulacide]

[cared? as in past-tense?]

W-What...What do you mean? [the fury trickles from his voice, giving way to something more flat, devoid of any remotely intense emotion. he sounds as numb as he looks.]

[crazyclownwoman]

[Walking by. Oh hey, sad looking person.]

Hey, you alright there?

[outforrevenge]

Huh?

[Not someone she knew before. That's good. Rapunzel shakes her head.]

I can't... I can't be here again.

[crazyclownwoman]

What do you mean? Like trapped in the town, or ...this street?

[outforrevenge]

Here! The town! I just... How could this happen!?

[crazyclownwoman]

They drag everyone here?

What's wrong? You know time freezes back home right?

[outforrevenge]

But I have something to do, and I can't be back here!

[Her tone wavers between angry and despairing.]

It hurts too much!

[crazyclownwoman]

Like I said, time freezes. You'll have lots of time.

[Notes the tone though.]

Hey. Why don't you tell me about it. Maybe that'll help you feel better?

[derp_detective]

[Gumshoe will never miss a chance to say hello to a friend!]

Hey there, Rapunzel! Nice day isn't it?

[It's at this point that Gumshoe notices something seems to be really off about her.]

...Um, you okay? Did something happen?

[outforrevenge]

[She pauses for a moment. The names are still coming back to her in some cases...]

Gumshoe, I...

[And then her expression hardens, and she shakes her head.]

Nothing happened. Jut leave me alone.

[derp_detective]

Oh, okay...

But you sure you want me to leave? You look kinda sad, and usually when I'm feeling blue, being around friends can be a big help...

[outforrevenge]

I'm sure.

Just go!

[derp_detective]

[Gumshoe looks a little sad that he can't help out a friend, but he also doesn't want to press things either.]

Er alright, but if you need anything, I'll be around, okay? And be careful out here. Sometimes this town can mess with you, you know?

[outforrevenge]

...Alright. I'll remember that.

[She pauses a good while, then smiles sadly.]

Stay safe, Gumshoe.

[madanomadamada]

[ Ryoma comes up to her, looking quite worried. ]

Excuse me, but are you okay?

[outforrevenge]

Not at all.

[madanomadamada]

What's wrong? Do you need help with anything?

[outforrevenge]

It doesn't matter. It can't be helped.
