Tangled, no more hair, no more magic

[anonymous]

So, Rapunzel is actually super-strong and fit in the movie - she can support people's weight easily when they swing on her hair and pull them up towers.

It's because of the magic qualities of her hair.

See, her hair ensures she's at the peak of physical health - she never gets ill, injuries can be healed instantly, her body takes to exercise easily and she never experiences any aches or pains.

At the end of the movie, her hair has been cut, the magic qualities lost in that last display over Flynn's body. Now Rapunzel is suddenly vulnerable to the ailments that affect everyone else!

I'd take pretty much anything exploring this. Rapunzel breaking her arm and having to wait for it to heal the usual way. Rapunzel getting a cold for the first time and being a miserable patient, while Flynn plays nursemaid. Maybe her strength begins to give out or a day of hard physical work leaves her sore and stiff in a way she's never experienced before. Anything!

I wrote fic of Rapunzel being sick and Flynn looking after her JUST last night! It's pretty short and simple, so I'm not sure it'll entirely be what you're looking for, but it's here if you're interested. Tell me if that works as a fill for you!

I wrote one, but it was too long to post. It involves the requisite no hair, no power requirement. Find it in my journal, here.
