AND ON TOP OF IT ALL He Does This For Her KNOWING Her Hair Would Be The Only Thing That Could've Saved

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.

I could do Daniel's job if my mental fortitude wasn't that of a wet tissue.

So we all joke that Sam Reid is lestat irl, and he's an actor that plays lestat but he does it so well that the joke came about in the first place. Okay now in season 3 we are gonna get rockstar lestat. Canonically the books exist (the way they do in our world) and they have a fandom (like this world) and from public perception this rockstar guy is just insanely committed to the cosplay larp. of this fictional book character. So if I said it would be a really cool and fun idea for lestat's "Human" name to be Sam, like when fans are like "we know you're lestat from this book and you're like a vampire and all but real talk what's your name" I imgaine at first he'd be like "Dude i stg it's lestat" (way fancier and french than that but yk what i mean) but fandoms are crazy relentless and would stop at nothing to dox this man, so what if they wore him down until he's like "I changed it legally to lestat" on and on and on etc etc etc until eventually he just goes onto babynames.com and picks the first top 100 boy names that he sees Sam reid the actor that plays lestat in our lil tv show based on the books. And lestat the actor that plays "sam" when pestered by fans what his "real" name is.

i jus think it would be a funny little inconsequential easter egg

I love walking that fine line between feeling so seen and comforted & getting hopelessly triggered. Recovery is not pretty but these shows sure are!

God I love coping through media

Day 3: Favorite couple/dynamic (insp)

DELAINEY HAYLES and ROXANE DURAN as CLAUDIA and MADELEINE EPARVIER in INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022-2024)

not to trauma dump on main (which is all i do) but this is soooo how my mom treats me in my wheelchair vs how my theater teacher did. One of them called me useful and compared me to a stroller/table/basket etc. and one of them would spin me so she could dance with me like she did the other students :')

I wish they included this in the show cause it’s just so great. Look at the difference in how Gothel and Arianna treat Rapunzel’s hair. Look how Gothel almost worships it and focuses on it for herself while Arianna uses the hair as a comedy prop to make Rapunzel laugh
