[The vines start recording without her noticing. She's sitting on a rock, gently sobbing. She's still getting used to things and she misses her mother. After the recent hope of going home being dashed, she's a little sad. Her tears slow and she wipes them with the back of her hand. She notices the mirror and smiles shakily.]Oh, I guess it's

Hey there, don't go saying it's nothing, it makes sense that you would feel down given the circumstances. I miss my home too, I think a lot of people do, and I'm pretty sure no one likes being kidnapped. Everyone's allowed to feel down once and a while.

Just know that we're going to find a way home, even if it's not as soon as we'd like.

[magicglowyhair]

It's just so strange being here. I spent my whole life in my tower. Mother was always there to protect me. It's like learning how to live again, you know?

Do you think it's possible? I'm not sure the Queen will want to change her mind anymore.

[knowsfly]

It must be very strange to leave home for the first time like this, but maybe this is a good opportunity for you. We all have to leave our parents at some point to start our own journeys, and maybe here you can think about what path you want to walk.

[Wink] Hey now, I've flown all over the world, and if there's one thing that's true everywhere, it's that where there's a will there's a way. If she won't let us go, then we'll find another way home.

[magicglowyhair]

[She's thoughtful about that, deciding it isn't all bad. It's still scary, but in a different way.] I've never thought about that, before. Mother always told me I'd be with her.

You've flown around the world? That's so cool! Maybe I'll make it my goal to see as many places as I can. When we get home, there are a lot of places I want to visit.

That's bloody euphemism and a half. ( Hghghff angry at everything always B| ) Can't get that magic hair of yours to fix it up?

[She laughs uncomfortably. She doesn't get your humor, Ellie :|a]

I...don't think it can cure homesickness. I mean, I've never tried before. But it doesn't sound like something it could do.

( Who said she was joking >8| )

You know what they say. If at first you don't succeed...

[She tugs on a piece of hair.] Well, I guess I can try it. There's no harm in that, right?

[She falls silent and closes her eyes. Then she'll start to sing, Ellie. Her hair? Will start to glow.] Flower gleam and glow. Let your power shine. Make the clock reverse and heal this heart of mine.

I figure most people here are feelin' pretty homesick...

[magicglowyhair]

How do other people get over it? The easy answer would be going home, but I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon.

[gun_cata]

I dunno if anyone's gotten over it, but keeping busy is a good way to keep yourself from thinking about it too much.

[magicglowyhair]

You're right. I just have to find something to occupy myself now. Any suggestions?

[Voice]

[spoonoffate]

Everyone feels homesick every once in a while. [The way Rapunzel's talking...] Is this your first time away from home?

[Voice]

[magicglowyhair]

Mmhmm. It's just...it's always been too dangerous before. Mother warned me of all the things that could happen.

[permaretirement]

Oh, Miss, you mustn't be upset. When I arrived, I didn't know what to do with myself but cry, and yet now I've come to learn that the kind people here can always be counted on.

voice;

[magicglowyhair]

[She sniffles.] Well, that's good. Everyone I've met so far has been really kind. What did you do to cheer yourself up?

voice;

[permaretirement]

Oh, lots of things! There are so many beautiful sights to see here, and the animals are absolutely adorable. Have you tried making anything?

voice;

[magicglowyhair]

It's very lovely here. I do a little exploring everyday. I've made a few animal friends, but they usually make me miss Pascal even more.

I made some flower crowns with Aerith. And I was helping Vanille out when she made her house. I haven't really tried anything on my own yet.
