nolikereally:maire-annatari:artbycgunn:A re-imagining of Rapunzel.I used to dream of a genderswapped Rapunzel rescued by a princess in the era of German Landsknecht puff-and-slash fashion, but… THIS IS BETTER.“No, Mother Gothel, I swear— there’s no man!”“I saw your pretty boy scaling the wall at dawn, you hussy. I feed you and care for you, all these years—”“Her name is Yaliel.”“Oh… Oh, a girl? No better than she should be, I suppose.”“She’s perfectly lovely, Mother, she brings me little sweet brown dried fruits and she tells the most wonderful stories…”“She’s probably a harlot, or a thief. You’re not to have her here again. If I find out you’ve defied me—”“…All right, Mother.”“At least it’s not a man. You don’t know what awful things I protect you from, daughter dear.”“Of course not, Mother,” murmured Rapunzel, trying to hide the bitterness in her voice as she hid the stickiness of dates and kisses and other, sweeter things. -- source link
