1 Truffula Seed

[one minute Ted is standing in front of a crowd, the next he is standing in the middle of snow. Which is a very odd and sudden relocation. Thankfully there are no penguins or polar bears close by, because that would really be traumatizing]

Huh? How did I get all the way up to the ski slopes? Where is everybody? Grammy?

[and why is it so cold all of a sudden? Did breaking down the wall do this? Ted shivers] Brrr, it's freezing!

[When Rapunzel hears the confused calls, she gets up from where she was making a snow angel and cautiously heads toward the boy... Poor thing looks so young! Her first instinct is to take of her powder blue, fluffy wrap and offer it to him.]

Hello, there. My name is Rapunzel.
findatree: (This is awkward)

[he blinks at this strange girl. No one he recognizes, and he's been all around Thneedville]

Uhh, hi.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Um... Do you want it? [She gives the wrap a little shake.] It's warm.

I guess I have a lot to explain to you.

[You know what's really not a good idea? Being loud and happy to a kid who probably doesn't recognise your voice given the fact he knows you as an old man and not a twenty something.

It's even less wise to do it via a magical journal aforementioned kid doesn't know about yet.

The Once-ler is the king of bad ideas, and right now, he doesn't care. He sounds more happy than he's been since...well. Ever]

Ted?!! Ted is that you?

[He actually came back. The kid ACTUALLY CAME BACK. The very happy (and admittedly, slightly crazy) laugh he's just made probably isn't helping matters either]
findatree: (Aw shucks)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, no, that's okay, thanks. I'll just find my way back down to the square.
findatree: (OMG WHAT WAS THAT)

to infinity and beyond

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[what is that where is that voice coming from and why is it so happy?]

Huh? Who said that?

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
No, you don't understand. Wherever you're talking about...

You're not there anymore.

[Ted shivers again. He's never had to worry about being cold before; this is a strange new feeling]

Y-you don't say.
whichwayyoulean: (Shhh you can hear all the fucks I give)

[personal profile] whichwayyoulean 2012-12-20 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean who said that, it's me! The On-

[Oh. Wait. Future boy]

Okay. Wait. This is going to take some explaining.

Actually it's going to take a lot of explaining.

[She sighs and just... Wraps the thing around his shoulders herself.]

It's going to sound crazy, maybe, but this is a place called Paradisa. It's a castle, but it's also its own world... And it took you from your world.
findatree: (Ohhkay)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
The On? Sorry, I don't think I know anyone named The On.

Nice to meet you anyway, The On.

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
You're right, it does sound crazy. Why would a castle take someone anywhere?

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it... Needs people.

Look, I know it's hard to believe, and scary, too, but I'm telling the truth.
whichwayyoulean: (I'm the good guy here)

[personal profile] whichwayyoulean 2012-12-20 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Groan]

Sorry, I forgot for a second there that you're a smart guy.

Look, first off has anyone explained to you about the magic books? The one I'm talking to you through right now? [Baby steps]
findatree: (Hiding from something)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
No, no, I believe you. But it's still crazy.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I see!

Yes, I agree. It's pretty crazy... A lot of strange stuff happens here, really.
findatree: plz credit if you take any made by me (Uneasy around weirdos)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[magic book magic book. Oh, that thing he's been ignoring because of the freezing snow. He picks it up]

So I just talk into this and you can hear me?
findatree: (Pouty Mcpouterson)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
That's really great and all, but I'm kind of freezing right now.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Why don't we get you inside? This way...

[She starts heading off.] What's your name?

Oh, ah, guess you didn't hear my speech a mniute ago. My name is Ted Wiggins and I speak for the trees.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope, I don't think you were here yet. It's nice to meet you, though, Ted.

Speak for the trees, huh? How exactly does that work?
findatree: (Puttin' out the vibes)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, uh, the trees are really important. So I... tell people about them.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! I get it. I think that's a wonderful thing to do; it really is...

[She opens the main doors for him.]

Here we are!
findatree: (Can has flashlight)

[personal profile] findatree 2012-12-20 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[just kind of standing and staring] Kind of a strange ice theme you guys got going here.

[personal profile] ftssusstgsetfwe 2012-12-20 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah... That's new. And maybe temporary!

But this will be your home for now, Ted. I know that's a big change, so if you want to talk to anyone about it, I'll always be around.
