It felt weird for somebody to say Eugene’s name in direct conversation, officially directing the birth name towards him. The only people that knew his actual names were the caretakers and children back at the orphanage; it only made sense with all the times that Eugene returned to his childhood home.

But in a smallish closet at a college party, it was impossible for Eugene to not feel the stress or the strain that came with it. Music poured in from the closet and Eugene could even see the shadows of people as they walked by. There were too many possibilities that someone could barge in and discover the safety net that he had created for himself. But, honestly, he trusted Cassandra. He felt that she wouldn’t judge him too much, he hoped.

The male let out a low sigh as he shifted towards the floor, moving himself into an awkward sitting position in the already small closet. These conversation were always easier to have when sitting.

“Listen, Cassandra,” he started, pausing. He took another deep breath before he looked at her. “I don’t know how what your outlook with being an orphan is. I loved the orphanage, don’t get me wrong. Mrs. Johnston was an amazing caretaker for all the children that lived their lives there. But-”

“I sometimes don’t like being Eugene Fitzherbert,” he admitted. “It just-the name has too many negative memories that I just- decided to create a new alias for myself.”

Cass sat down, her back against one wall her feet against the door jab so to not go against the door itself in front of Eug...Flynn. She sighed it was going to take some effort but if he wanted to be called Flynn then it just was not her place to argue, 

“Honestly I am always up and down on my opinion about the orphanage. Especially when people figure it out. I remember a few girls in my grade would star singing Annie songs when I got close by so I would hate it only to go watch a super hero movie or TV show and they were an orphan defeating crime. I guess I feel neutral about it. But I guess a more accurate way to put that is that I am constantly changing my mind.” Cass thought about the girls and boys who teased her meanwhile the other kids that pity her over the years. 

She thought of her favorite tree in front the the yard in the orphanage. How she used to climb to the very top and frighten Mrs. Johnston.Her friends at the orphanage being adopted. being so happy for them and angry towards herself.

“So Flynn am I correct to assume I am the only one who knows?” She said after thinking for a while. She looked over at him looking for something that probably was not there. She had not thought of this kind of thing for a while mostly because it was depressing now that she thought about it she could not even remember if Rapz knew she was adopted or not.

    Rapunzel cheered softly at her friends reply as she moved to hook their arms together, bringing them closer to one another as they walked. She already knew the perfect place to start at since it was always one of her first choices to stop by anyways.

    Thrift stores had anything and everything for a very affordable price. She had once found a beautiful dress for five dollars once and on another found the exact same thing at another store for over twenty! It also made mixing and matching outfits so much more easier because they had literally everything. It would be almost impossible to not find something there at least, and if they didn’t well at least they tried the cheap area first.

    “There’s a thrift shop I love to go to a few blocks away! So we have to go there first and hopefully be lucky enough to find amazing things there today!”

Cass felt an eyebrow raise at the idea of a thrift shop. It was not what she was thinking Rapz would say at all but it made perfect sense. She had always been super creative and crafty. Cass has gone in many times just to see some things she might be able to use. They were like treasure troves.

“Yeah that sounds like a great idea.” She said with a smile as Rapz linked their arms together. She was curious what they would find when they got there. As they got to the shop she was surprised that the sign had a black and white signs with a nice color of yellow. She was used to the ones that looked like they were kind of run down but with a lot of cool stuff on the inside but this one looked really inviting to it.

Cass watched as Eugene sat down and explained himself. Cass did not say anything immediately. She thought of the nice moments of running around with children playing and laughing. Though there were also the other moments that consisted of her sitting in a tree not talking to other people wondering who decided to leave a small girl with complete strangers. She went and sat down and looked at Eugene.

“I honestly understand. I insisted in changing my last name when I was adopted my dad was hesitant but I would not listen. I wanted the name of the person who wanted me as their family rather than whoever left me there.” She felt herself mindlessly picking at her nails not to the point of bleeding but back to the familiar stubs she was used to. 

“As for Cassandra, I guess I will always be Cassandra. I guess that now that  I have a great family I do not want to forget the sad little girl who sat alone in the tree outside the old house. “

Cass is not gonna lie she was not a big fan of shopping. It was not that she minded wearing nice clothes it was more that she just found shopping tedious. However the fact she got to spend time with Rapz made it perfectly fine to let her drag her around.  Besides she was blind to her lack in wardrobe. She prided herself in being practical but there were plenty of moments when a her casual clothes did not fit the bill. 

“Of course to spend time with you Rapz” She carefully took a chunk of her hair and lightly tossed it on the other side of her head temporarily covering her face as the locks tried to slide back into place.

They were walking off campus and headed towards the more shop filled section of town. She looked around the unfamiliar walk way and looked back at her friend.

“Okay, where did you want to go first?” 

A bit of shopping

@cass-and-owl

   If there was something that Rapunzel had noticed about Cass wardrobe since the past few months was that she really didn’t have a verity. Now, there wasn’t anything wrong with that, but her friend had nothing fancy or at least something to be considered sunday’s best. What if she was invited to some ceremony to honor her grades or something she’s done in one of her clubs? She knew her dresses weren’t something that would suit her friend well or be her style at all.

    Because of this, she had decided to take her friend out to find something in her style that she would feel comfortable wearing when the time called for it. She had ideas on where to go and plans to not push for anything she knew the other wouldn’t like, all she had to was just drag her out there and see what they could find.

    “I’m glad we can go shopping together! I’m honestly a bit excited, aren’t you?”

Adopted. it was weird for Eugene to actually meet somebody that had been adopted from the same orphanage that he had grown up in. He knew the stories and the accounts of the children, but not hers. Hell, he didn’t even know who this girl was.

“Middle school, huh?” he asked, humming in response. His eyes looked her up and down as he tried to judge an age to the girl. He had to be at least two years older. “So I probably did know you a while.”

As the woman gave her short explanation, Eugene’s smug expression turned into irritation, his lips pressing into a thin line as his eyes widened. “Cassandra?” he asked aloud. There was no way that this woman was the same little brat-

Oh god, now he could see it. “You really are Cassandra. Oh my god.” It was an understatement to say that he was shocked. He remembered this girl during his time at the orphanage; she was there for a while, not as long as him, but definitely long enough. Maybe it was the tomboyish attitude the girl had.

He opened his mouth to say something but then closed it. he couldn’t think of what to say. “Small world,” he muttered.

This was officially the most awkward conversation Cassandra has even had.. bare none. She just looked at him awkwardly in this closest music slowly leaking into the closed door. 

“So Eugene...” Cass paused thinking of  good way to ask the question but the only way she could think of is too just rip off the band aid.

“Why did you change your name?” She asked she remembered him liking the story but it was a hero and she remembered a lot of the things he had done as a kid. How does a delinquent (though she had her own problems with rule breaking even now) go to name themselves after a rich hero? It was not a common story though so she doubted anyone has noticed it was the same name but he might as well name himself Arthur Pendragon. Wait was he hiding who he was for a reason. Before Cass could stop it her thought were spiraling out of control and pondering and theory. 

“So I’m assuming that is why you dragged me in here because no one knows your real name?” Though she did not know the why or how this came about she at least felt she had a fair understanding of what was going on.

truethievery:

Honestly, this was probably all over the top for Eugene. This stress. This anxiety. Hell, he fucking dragged this poor girl into a closet. A small, dark closet that had a small sliver of light shining from below the door.

It was awkward.

And he was freaking out.

Brown eyes stared at Cassandra as he listened to her little explanation. The music pounded in his ears, the loud music surprisingly muffled. Had he even taken a breath yet? He didn’t think he did. So she definitely knew him. What–what were the chances? How did he not remember her?

Who exactly was this girl?

“I wouldn’t exactly say that I was arrested.” He was most likely in high school then. “It was a minor misdemeanor at that point and I-wait. Your father is Sheriff  Jäger?”

“Who are you? I didn’t even know the old man had children.”

Cass though for a moment to think about what she could say so he would remember her. it was obvious he was the right person but what would he remember.

“He didn’t have kids I was adopted in middle school.” She thought for a moment but then she remembered something there was no way he could forget. 

“Do you remember the little girl who clear wrapped your bedroom door and you bounced off of it like a trampoline?” She said with a smile remembering all the work she had to put in it to lay so flat to reflect light and stern enough to stay on the door frame.  

“You then proceeded to chase me in anger around the building.” She said remember how she eventually climbed up a tree out of sight.

Trapped but with coffee

starter for @sculpted-envy

Cass sat in her small blacked upholstered booth meant for two people in the corner of the room with a warm black coffee in hand. She took a sip with content as she went through the paper she had just written. All that was left was reading one more page of no grammar, reword and add ad dash of commas and she was completely done. 

Cass for some reason just could not find herself get anything done in the library. It was too quiet she needed the background noise or she felt subconscious of making to much noise and disturbing everyone. 

It was not until she clicked the last save that she looked up and noticed several individuals that were at the cafe doors including a barista.

    Rapunzel smiled at Cass’ invitation for food, she knew she could introduce her to one of her many favorite restaurants and just talk more about random things and even show her around campus.

    She was so excited to just start making new memories with her best friend and introduce her to her other friends and just enjoy everything with them all together.

    “Yeah! I know the best place to eat and I can show you all the best places to shop and fill you in with all the knowledge of campus! Let’s go!” She quickly shot up from her seat and grabbed hold of her friends hand, dragging her out of the room.

As Rapz pulls her forward she pauses. 

“Hold on I need my wallet.” Cass detangled from raps grasp to pick up the piece of leather guarding her money then proceeded to put her hand back in Rapz grasp and allowed Raps to pull her out of their room. 

As they went down the hallway plenty of people said hi to Rapz and introduce themselves to Cass.  Rapz was pretty popular but that was nothing new. She always had this weird quality of attracting people to her.

They left the building and were heading away from campus. Cass was able to see the grounds as they walked. The really nice library building and some of the school buildings. 

“So where are we going?”

His heart lurched.

No, lurched wasn’t extreme enough. His heart dropped violently into the pit of his stomach and it felt like it was beginning to dissolve. Something stirred inside of Eugene, something that he hadn’t felt in years. It wasn’t the confusion that he should have felt–after all, how could this stranger know him by his birth name? It was fear. Fear because someone knew.

He felt like he wanted to puke.

“Come with me,” he ordered, grabbing the girl by the wrist and dragging her off before she could oppose. He entered a closet, small in size but still giving the two privacy that he desperately needed.

Before the girl could think about leaving–he needed to figure this out now–he grabbed her squarely by the shoulders. He looked at her with the same fear that he felt, his eyes searching the girl’s face with desperation. “How the hell do you know that name?”

She was startled when Flynn/Eugene grabbed her hand and dragged. She would have quickly fight him off if it wasn’t for the shear look of panic that he had. They quickly made their way passed a couple of students before opening a closet door.

“jesus ch-” before she finished her statement he dragged both of them inside. He placed his hands on her shoulders with a look of fear. 

“At the orphanage I was at there was a boy named Eugene who loved the Tales of Flynn Rider. Then when I was in middle school my father the local police sheriff told me when he got home about a kid who he arrested that insisted his name was Flynn when he knew it wasn’t.” Cass looked at him the more she looked the more she felt dumb for not realizing it sooner. He even had that same smirk.

Cass shrugged she was pretty sure that old man was indistructable given all the situations he gets himself in. 

“Besides that I cannot really think of anything else that really happened since then. I’m sure there is a lot but I just cannot think of anything else right now.” Cass paused as here stomach let out a ferocious growl. 

“Did you want to go get something to eat with me?” She said face a bit red from the ravenous noise. She stood up and grabbed her wallet and phone out of her back pack.

:After all I really do not know the layout of this place at all.” She said though she could probably make it around it would be nice to not get lost immediately.

Man, it really was a shame for this girl to be alone. But it was cool for Eugene, at least. She made for interesting conversation, being entirely different than the normal girl who attended one of these shindigs. Even the way that she handled the poor drunk guy that approached her. Most girls, Eugene knew, would sneer at the guy. But this girl played it cool, unlike the poor stranger.

“That was a poor attempt if I had ever seen one before,” he laughed, shaking his head as he looked away from the poor guy and towards the raven-haired girl in front of him. He sneaked a glance and saw the guy tottering away from the pair as he ventured down the hallway, looking for a new friend in his drunken stupor. 

“So, you think you know me?” he questioned, raising an eyebrow at the girl’s comment and returning back to their previous conversation. He was curious. Did he have a reputation here at school? Maybe they had seen each other in passing and his face just struck a chord with her. “Maybe it’s the dazzling intellect of mine,” he joked, flashing her a grin as he chuckled lightheartedly. 

“I kid, I kid,” he said. “I should probably introduce myself and see if I’m as familiar as you think. Name’s Flynn, Flynn Rider.”

At the mention of that name she paused. She had heard that before. Her neutral going-with-the-flow attitude stopped immediately back to a time before she was adopted by her parents and a little boy liked to tell stories. The young boy who like her just wanted to be adopted and would make people smile with these tales of a grand hero. 

It was almost as if she could not hear the music anymore as she looked at this person. It fit like a missing puzzle piece. 

“That reminds me of a book someone once read to me...”

The stories of a hero cutting down monsters to save damsels in distress, the hero who dove into dungeons to find a gold and treasure, the hero everyone in my orphanage looked up too especially the small boy with messy brown hair. She knew there was a possibility that they were not the same but she found Rapz after all this time so it was possible.

“Eugene?”

    “Maybe asking your parents or the orphanage you were adopted from would open a door of possibilities for you!”

    The brunette responded as she leaned back against the chair she was on. This all still felt so surreal, meeting Cassandra again and catching up as if nothing happened. She wished life could be this easy every day, but then there wouldn’t be any fun really.

    Her thoughts soon turned to the memories of their little games when they were younger. The fierce mighty dragon and the fearless princess who would always destroy the dragon or befriend it depending on the mood of the day. It felt fitting for it to have been turned into a haunted house.

    “Oh man that sounds so cool, I wish I could have been there for that!”

“Yeah unfortunately I did that but apparently those doors were closed shut even my parents do not really know. It is okay though, I think I will wait for now. “ She found herself lost in thought of the constant calls and desk clerks, all the red tape. It was exhausting. She though back to the haunted house, something fun, something that would make Rapz smile.

“It was pretty fun to work at the haunted house but do you remember that old guy with the long beard kept sneaking in and hiding behind the scenes scaring the volunteers. I had to chase him off the property more times then I care to admit.” She paused a she talked to her childhood best friend.

“God I’m not gonna lie Rapz, I really missed this.”

    She felt relieved that the subject on Flynn was dropped without an argument and pushed far aside. Now instead she could learn about the changes in her friends life, and from what she could tell they were good changes.

    While she wished her friend could have found a chance to find her birth parents, she knew it wasn’t an easy task remembering all the troubles her father told her they had gone through to find her. Luckily, Cass had a supportive adopted family and her dad had given in and was letting her follow her dreams which was all Rapunzel could have hoped for.

    “Cass that’s awesome! I’m so happy your dad’s letting you follow your dreams! And I’m sure you’ll find your birth parents sooner or later, you just need time!” She smiled brightly at the raven haired girl, which soon turned into mild surprise as she spoke more of what she had been up to while they were separated. “You mean the hotel we swore was haunted as kids?! You must have been paid a lot!”

Cass paused for a second.

“Yeah I would like to know where I have come from but I am not in that much of a hurry.” Cass thought of her parents and how lucky she was. It was funny how Rapunzel and her were both orphans but came from such different situations. The witch to the loving parents. She was glad that Raps seems to be happy, she deserved the best.

“Oh yeah I remember how we used to pretend their was a dragon up top. Oh after the rumor had been going on for so long they actually started doing a haunted house too. I was a haunted suit of armor. It was sweaty but super fun.” Cass felt herself smile as she thought of how the two used to play pretend, Cass ended up the dragon a lot but honestly that was the most fun part. Though Princess Rapunzel killed her a lot.

Acquaintances || Flynn && Cassandra

Brief. They recognize the names–the man that caught him, the boy from the stories–but there isn’t anything actually bad between them. They’re rivals, in a sense, but in the long run, they can easily help each other. Because they’ve both got a dream. And friends, no matter how small, can help.

“Hey, who knows when I’ll go back to competing?” Genji shrugged, and laughed off the girl’s suggestion.

He was too humble for his own good. He knows he is competent enough to be active with the team, but he wouldn’t want to put anyone at risk. He is branded as disabled due to his arm and leg prostheses, but can function just as well as the other players. Though it sounds like a sad case, Genji likes to find the humor in it.

“What if I block a hit and my arm falls off? Everyone would run away screaming.”  He held up his enhancement, quietly imitating what he thinks he scared audience would sound like. He found way too much enjoyment in that joke.

He continued walking with Cassandra from the gym to the quad. There was a little food court around the bend with a few options that Genji happened to really like. He figured since they’re both agreeable people, this decision could take longer than it needed to be. Cass had a good suggestion, but he had a way to make it even better.

“Okay, okay, I have an idea. I’m going to tell you three things I want. You choose two of them, and then I make the final choice from whatever two you say. My brother and I used to do this all the time. And, it means I technically made the final decision. Sound good?”

Cass laughed at his joke. “Think of it as advanced training, they will have to duck out of the way. And if they are screaming well then let ‘em oh you know you could dress up as Buzz Light-year when he is in the dress and holding his own arm.”  She said as they walked forward towards the food court. The noise getting slightly louder as their was more and more people but it was not unpleasant. 

The various food sections had not as many people as usual due to the unusual time. 

At the offer Genji made Cass thought for a second.

“Fine” she said rolling her eyes with a smile still on her face.
