Third Floor Common Room [Sunday morning]
Rapunzel had spent a fair amount of this morning beating herself up over her choice to stay here. Her mother would be -- if she wasn't already -- absolutely worried sick, and she was a despicable person for making her go through that, and if she'd known how to get home, she would have probably left at the first sight of dawn.
But...she was pretty much stuck here, wasn't she? And it wasn't so bad -- actually, it wasn't bad at all, guilt aside. Sure, it was confusing as all heck, but that was to be expected when she hadn't been outside her whole life anyway, right?
So for example, she didn't know how or why the box in her common room's kitchen hummed, but she soon figured out that when you opened it, it let out cold air, and there were things like milk and orange juice and eggs inside. And from there, it only took her a little bit of experimentation and guesswork to find everything she needed to make pancakes.
Lots, and lots of pancakes.
Whenever she was down, she liked to bake, or draw. The best cure for when she was really blue? Combine them. So Rapunzel was soon absorbed in making little pancakes shaped like hearts and clouds and stars, pulling them off the pan as soon as they were done and carefully decorating them with some sprinkles and frosting she'd found.
There were normal pancakes, too, if you weren't quite up to the sugar rush. She'd never cooked for a crowd before, but she felt pretty up to the task, at the moment.
[omg come have some totally moddable pancakes, yay!]
