I don't want to go home for holiday break. I'd much rather stay at Hogwarts. It's not very fun at home, and mother makes me uncomfortable sometimes

[allsweetheart]

Er, Punzie-hon? There something you wanna talk about?

[magichairbrush]

Well... That's all of it, really.

I'd like talking.

[allsweetheart]

Would ya like me to come to where you are, sugar?

[magichairbrush]

Yes, please. Thank you, Applejack. You're a very good friend.

[allsweetheart]

Hey now, what kinda friend would I be if I didn't worry 'bout ya.

I'll be there in two shakes. Just tell me where.

[magichairbrush]

You're very sweet. I'm in the library.

[allsweetheart]

Right. I'll see ya real quick.

[After a short stop by the kitchen for some cookies, AJ makes her way to the library, poking her head around the corner first.]

Punzie?

[magichairbrush]

[Punzie will just run up and hug her. It's nice to open up.]

Hello, Applejack.

[allsweetheart]

[And she's going to return the hug, patting her roommate gently between the shoulders with a small smile.]

Hey there, sugar. Ah brought some cookies with me, in case y'all were hungry.

[magichairbrush]

Cookies, wonderful!

Here, I have all my books and things in a corner... This way....

[allsweetheart]

Feelings use up a lot of energy. S'always good t' have some food around. Trust me, Ah have a li'l sister.

[AJ follows Punzie over to where she's got her books and things stashed.]

[magichairbrush]

I bet you're a wonderful big sister, Applejack.

[Rapunzel plops herself down and sighs.]

I don't know what to make of her, really. My mother, I mean.

[allsweetheart]

Heh. Depends on when y'all ask 'er.

[Applejack flops down next to her roommate, careful with the plate of cookies before sitting it down in front of them. The farm girl brings a leg up, resting an arm on it as she listens.]

Ah never met 'er personally, so Ah cain't tell ya what Ah think y'all should do, Punzie, but Ah think ya should be able t' follow yer heart an' do what y'all think is right. Heck Ah'd be willin' t' write t' Granny an' ask if y'all can spend the holidays down on the farm if ya really don't wanna go back home.

[magichairbrush]

Heh.

[Rapunzel nods slowly.]

That sounds like wonderful advice, Applejack. I'll think about it. And... I wish I could spend the holidays with you, and see your farm, but... My mother would never let me.

[allsweetheart]

Then maybe it's time y'all took th' reins fer a change. Worked somethin' out. From what y'all have said, it's like she don't wanna see eye to eye wit' ya.

[She reaches forward to pick a cookie off the plate, breaking it in half and handing the other half to Rapunzel.]

There's gotta be give an' take in any relationship, an' it sounds t'me like she ain't done a lotta givin'.

[magichairbrush]

[Rapunzel tilts her head back and sighs.]

I just... I don't know. I mean... What you're saying makes sense, but she takes such good care of me. She keeps me safe.
