Can we take a moment to appreciate that Eugene and Lance lazed around, ate sweets, took a nap, OVER SLEPT, and STILL managed to make it to the treasure in time to steal it for themselves.

Keeping in mind that ALL the other contestants followed Rapunzel who was using a map.

Honestly their egos where 100% justified

Pairing: Pre-New Dream

Rating/Warning: T (just in case) Bridgerton AU

Summary:

It feels like no surprise that the hidden jewel of Corona, Lady Rapunzel der Sonne, is indeed a Diamond.  Of course she is.  The rumors of her beauty were a tame sort of truth.  Her first debut at a party was a complete success.  It seemed her dance card was filled within minutes of her arrival.  It seems a good thing that Madame Gothel keeps her eye out for her, though perhaps she is a bit overbearing. And while, the lovely Ms. der Sonne, graced the Ton with her presence, the mysterious Prince Horace did not.  Or…perhaps he did, and we all simply don’t know it. I have it on good authority that the carriage bearing the crest of Elatha was in attendance, though it did not arrive at the front door. Perhaps, dear reader, if you were able to attend the illustrious party of the Baron of Vardaros, you spoke with the Prince and did not know.  Quite an exciting possibility. Either way, it is obvious that Ms. der Sonne definitely picked a wonderful time to make her debut. Perhaps she will find a match with the mysterious prince. Perhaps they have already met. - Lady Waderington’s Societal Papers

AN: Heavily inspired by @tangledbea's Bridgerton AU. It took a bit for the inspo to really hit, but my mind ran with it. (Hopefully the link works, it's not working on AO3 at the moment I have no clue why). I tried to through some of my own twists but not sure how clear they are. I am really happy with how this came out, I hope you all enjoy.

Have you seen the "As Told By Emojis" series? I just remembered it existed and rewatched the Tangled one

I have! I've actually giffed a lot of it!

It feels weird to me when people act like Eugene and Cassandra's interactions aren't mutual. I've seen a lot of people act as if one is just being mean to the other all the time.

I've also seen it from both sides.

Eugene's not just rude to Cassandra.

Cassandra's not just mean to Eugene.

This is their dynamic. And while I feel like Cassandra started it (Eugene, trying to make a good impression before he got comfortable in the palace would be polite to people, and she was likely rude first, so he got rude back), Eugene did nothing to get her to stop. He started deliberately mispronouncing her name.

By "Cassandra v. Eugene," they've finally come to an understanding and started appreciating each other, and their relationship just gets better from there. But the bickering and banter continues, because it's who they are with each other. It's very real to me.

Do you have that journal page of dark cass with Rapunzel talking about trying to reach out to her? I know hris showed a dark cass page at some point.

Unfortunately not. I have a post that links to the Instagram post but he has since made his Insta private, so I can't just look at it and screencap it anymore.

If anyone else out there has it, feel free to share.

what was it specifically that soured you on Cassandra during mid S2/between forest of no return and freebird? Was it partly the noticeable absence of Eugene's reaction during the Rapunzel-turns into a bird sequence

It's hard to say what it specifically was. It certainly wasn't how other characters were or weren't written, though, and that includes Eugene's inclusion towards the end of "Freebird." More like... the things I didn't like about her resurfacing during S2.

I am very sympathetic towards Rapunzel, though, and even though I can acknowledge when she's wrong (Cassandra was wholly in the right in "Goodby and Goodwill," for example), I still don't like people being mean to my girl. And the farther into the season it got, the less I liked how she was treating Rapunzel.

I know that season 3 ruined Cassandra’s character for many people, and I agree, but personally, I didn’t like her personality in seasons 1 and 2 either. Especially with how she mistreated Eugene and Adira. It just…left a bad taste in my mouth.

She grew on me for a while, but my opinion of her tanked again early in S2. There was a fraction of time towards the end of S1 where I grew to accept that the way she and Eugene mutually treat each other is just a sibling dynamic. When he calls her cold-blooded in "The Quest for Varian" and she literally laughs it off, I was like, "Ah, okay, I get it."

But, again, that growing opinion tanked in S2, right around "Forest of No Return" or "Freebird". I've never really been a fan. I can see her potential as a character, but as a person? No thanks.

That's because it's the bible fore seasons 1 & 2. If you noticed, once it gets to "Vigor the Visionary," they don't even have screencaps for the episodes. S3 was probably still in production when this bible came out.

Not to say that S3 was solidly planned at all.

Am I the only one who finds it kinda sus that the TTS series bible doesn't include anything for S3?
