A small note

Wow… honestly just… wow. Words cannot express how happy this makes me. I never thought I’d be here. Years ago when I started this Tumblr, I had no idea how far it would go. Yet here I am, 1,000 followers. I am eternally grateful for everyone, new and old, who follows me. I know I’m not the greatest writer and my posting consistency is quite bad, but I do appreciate everyone who enjoys the content I put out. Thank you so much. Now for the celebration.

What is the celebration?

The celebration will be a personalized fic giveaway. There will be three winners.

1st place winner: personalized 2k+ word fic

2nd place winner: personalized 1k+ word fic

3rd place winner: personalized 500+ word fic

What do you mean by “personalized fic”?

By personalized I mean

Real name instead of (Y/n) (Ex: “Jaden laid her head on the pillow.” instead of “(Y/n) laid her head on the pillow.”)

Your choice of fic type (imagine, songfic, or hc)

Your choice of genre (fluff, angst, platonic, or smut)

Your choice of fandom

Your choice of character

Your choice of storyline (must be able to fit the word count (so if you win the 2k don’t suggest “Character and I go on an ice cream date”) and if you can’t/don’t want to come up with a storyline, tell me and I’ll run a few ideas by you)

Are there any requirements to enter?

Yes, but only a couple

You must be following me (I will be checking)

You must be okay with sharing small personal details about yourself (nothing super invasive, probably just things like hair color, eye color, skin tone, things of that nature unless you chose smut, in which the questions will probably be a lot more invasive, so make sure you’re okay with this before asking)

How do I enter?

Reblog this post with your favorite animal as the caption and the hashtag #canislupus-exe’s 1k 

How will you decide on the winner?

When you enter, your URL will be put onto a wheel on an app called Tiny Decisions. When the contest closes, I will spin the wheel three times. The first spin will determine 3rd place winner, the second spin will determine 2nd place winner, and the third spin will determine 1st place winner. I will screen record each one so there’s proof that it’s random

When is the contest ending?

You can enter up until November 30th 11:59 Mountain Standard Time

How will I know if I won?

I will reblog this post, tagging the winners, along with direct messaging them.

And that’s it!

Comment or message me if you have any more questions, good luck and thank you so much for 1k!!!🖤

Let's compare the S3 opening to the finale closing, shall we?

They're nearly identical with a few very notable differences:

The journal is closed. Her tale is told, this story is done. (It also closes while we watch, driving the point home.)

Her crown is now missing from the pillow*. This is to show how she's now comfortable wearing it all the time, indicating that she's stepped fully into her ruling role in society.

There is more paint spilled on the outside of the tankard that holds her brushes. This is, of course, because she's told a lot more story by the end of the season than the beginning. There's significantly less paint on it in the S1 opening. (And I'm positive the tankard is from the Snuggly Duckling.)

The view is finally pulled back and lit well enough to see what the thing on the far left is: an open birdcage. Rapunzel is finally truly free in the realest sense. She's chosen the life she leads now. None of this is being forced on her before she's ready for it. Interestingly, the birdcage is there in the S1 opening, too, but not only is the shot tighter so most of it is cut off, it's also draped in shadow, making it very unclear what the object is.

But there are some very notable differences between the S1 and S3 opening shots, as well:

The candles in the S1 opening are lit and much higher than the ones in the S3 opening. These are intended to be the same candles, but burned down by S3. This also shows that she's doing her journal entries at the close of the day. But the lighting in the S3 opening implies either dawn or sunset (likely the latter). It's warmer and brighter, more full of possibility and feels less like she's hiding it from the world.

Her paint palette is on the desk instead of her adventure bag which is full of more paint brushes and also coins. She did all of her painting at home, and didn't really have anywhere else to go during S1. She was still doing things the way she'd always been used to doing them.

The wall behind the desk is mostly unpainted in S1 and completely painted in S3. By the end of the series, she'd once again made a home for herself, surrounded by her own art and the stories she had to tell. Similarly, the desk is far less marked up by art supplies in S1 than it is in S3 (just like the brush-holding tankard).

The books are leaning differently, because she took them with her during S2. You can see them in the S2 opening shot on her bed in the caravan.

The little pot in the upper right of the desk has clean, unused paint brushes in it. But in S3, it's full of flowers, instead, because those brushes are all now in use, and stashed in her adventure bag.

There are multiple writing quills on the desk in S1 and none in S3. I feel like this is significant of her always being out and about now. Also, she feel less like she has to "put things in ink," and can instead do her free-flowing lifestyle the way she sees fit.

*Yes, I know that in a previous post I said it was the pillow the wedding rings were carried on, but both of these things can be true at the same time.

AND ON TOP OF IT ALL he does this for her KNOWING her hair would be the only thing that could've saved him from death. He would rather DIE than not do this one act for her. SAVE HER. I'm ill...

Flynn cutting off Rapunzel's hair is actually an incredible expression of love because he's getting rid of the one thing that directly caused her "mom" to abuse her and thus is truly setting her free from all that horribleness because now she no longer has the very thing itself that was causing it. That also means not even he could use it against her and is proving he loves her beyond it. The now-short length is also truly a part of this literal cutting away of the abuse-tool too, because now even it being long is gone and she no longer even has to think about it if she doesn't want to beyond basic maintenance. The length of her hair was just as much of a tool to hurt her as the magic powers, because her "mom" was using it to have her own freedom but didn't let Rapunzel use her own hair to leave. Getting rid of her hair in all the ways it was used as a tool of abuse and reducing it to something she only needs to care about if she wants to is literally the best gift he could give her.
