"Princess Jasmine?"

Rapunzel asked tentatively, her hand raised in a little fist as knocked lightly and stepped one of her ballerina flats into Jasmine's quarters. A gleaming tiara was perched on lilac her chopped hair. She made to tuck her hair behind her ear-- a nervous habit-- and was still baffled and put off when there wasn't any there. They just grazed the little short ones and she lowered it again.

"I-- I brought you a gift. Flowers. From Corona," she said quickly, awkwardly, with a group of cut stems with red-petaled flowers blooming from them in her other arm. She seemed to gain some self-assurance. "I hope they are a small way to thank you for inviting me to-- to visit!"

“Oh! Rapunzel, they’re beautiful,” Jasmine says kindly, smiling as she rises from the cushion to greet the other princess. She’s clearly nervous about the visit, though for what reason, Jasmine isn’t sure. She takes a deep breath when she gets close, inhaling the flowers’ perfume with delight. “Thank you, but you didn’t have to bring me anything. Having you visit is enough for me.”

She waits just long enough to find a vase to place the flowers in, painted turquoise with gold trim and embellishments, before turning back to Rapunzel and pulling her into a hug.

“It’s been too long,” she says softly. “How is Corona? And how are you?”

"Corona is fine! Papa is doing well, and Mom has apparently never been better," Rapunzel beamed, careful to avoid using 'Mother' still. The thought of the betrayal that left her with chopped brown hair still made her skin prickle and her chest hurt. She was careful to cover her left hand with her right, looking a little nervous again, but it's different somehow.

"How about you? I haven't seen Rajah, is he sunbathing somewhere?" she giggled, remembering how the big tiger scared her to death when she first met him, but she quickly discovered he was as sweet as Maximus once he knew you wouldn't hurt Jasmine.

“I’m glad to hear it,” she says, smiling warmly. Her eyes sparkle. “Though I see you’ve left out Eugene. Don’t tell me you two are arguing.”

Jasmine smiles, casting a fond glance at her window. “Yes, Rajah is in the gardens, taking a nap. You’d think he’s still a kitten, as much as he likes to lay around all day.”
