Major Major Spoiler here: Rapunzel has trouble adjusting to life without super-duper long hair - its like she lost a limb. I wanna see trouble getting around, needing to pick things up with just her hands, etc etc. Maybe Flynn being sympathetic/helping her out?

I've actually considered this a whole lot. I joke with my friends that when Flynn cut her hair that the sudden loss of the weight alone would have probably rocketed her forward (or snapped her neck, idk) xD So yeah, I might actually write this!
Her hair is constantly tickling the back of her neck. It merely takes a small movement, a slight breeze, to brush it against the soft skin above her shoulders. Rapunzel can't count the number of times she's tried to swat away an imaginary bug at her neck, before realizing it's just her hair tickling her.
There are days she mourns it, when she flicks her hand to lasso something before realizing that it's gone. Other days she feels so free, her body feels so light, like it could fly away. She likes to hold it, sometimes. She likes to grab and tug at the bottom of her hair, marveling at it's shortness.
Mostly Rapunzel just feels bare. She looks in the mirror and can't recognize the reflection there. It's like she's lost a limb, a defense, a hiding place, and has to relearn how to move and live.
Then Flynn's fingers card through her hair, feather light on her scalp, and she thinks that maybe it's okay to feel bare with him nearby to help her.

A million years late for this and not the OP, but whatever. I love and adore this fill because I know exactly how Rapunzel feels here. I recently chopped off my hair too and also find myself grabbing and tugging at it like she is here. Granted, it's not the incredible length Rapunzel lost, but still. Love love love this forever. <333

Meanwhile, I will think about more literally filling this during the fill-a-thon!
