oh wow
that sounds so fun!
you really think i'm um
shiny enough??

[glowshine]

You sound real pretty and you make flowers. In my professional opinion, I'd say so!

[defyingfrigidity]

[Elsa could never blame Anna for any of that. If anyone's to blame, it's that Fog God, the one who brought all of them here and turned them into monsters in the first place. She'd tried her best to be respectful when Rohan talked about the god, but seeing how torn up Anna's been over all of this... yeah. That's unforgivable.]

I'll tell you all of that again as many times as I have to. Whenever you need it.

[She thinks a lot of big thoughts on protecting Anna and making sure she's safe, but at the same time... she also has to be Anna's support. She has to be there for her in moments like this, too.]

I don't know if I could feel less guilty about having to do that... but I think it might be more bearable.

[rediscover]

oh gosh
that's so sweet!
well i'd love to join in that case! what do i need to do?
is there a form, or...an audition or something?

[rediscover]

[Anna looks visibly grateful for Elsa's avowal of support. That's likely something she'll always seek from her: support and approval. It's important as they rebuild their relationship and work on being sisters again.]

That's why you're the best!

[She nods.]

That's probably a better way of putting it. You know me, I'm not great with the words and the talking...

[No, Anna, you're great at talking. You're just awkward. It's fine.]

[defyingfrigidity]

I'm only doing for you what you've been doing for me since my coronation. Even before that, come to think of it.

[Even if Anna didn't know about what was going on in those thirteen years of isolation, hearing her talking at Elsa's door and hoping they can go out and play soon... that helped. As much as Elsa didn't want to admit it, it probably helped more than their father's attempt at getting her to control her magic.

That gets... kind of a laugh out of Elsa. There's still the serious air around them, but that comment is making it better.]

Oh, you're good enough! You just don't bother with all those big, stuffy-sounding words... I think that's a much better way of speaking.

[glowshine]

You only have to do a vocal audition~ Make a little song for me~

Be careful! I can be a harsh judge, hehe.

[rediscover]

Well...what are sisters for?

[She'd always hoped, all those years, that Elsa could hear her. That she was getting through to her sister, despite the silence from the other side of the door. That her sister was listening and at least knew that Anna loved her and missed her.

Now, she's a little more sure of that.

Anna chuckles, and it feels good to eat least break some of that tension.]

Well, if you say so...! Although I might certainly begin soliloquizing as I ruminate upon the magnificent sight of a chocolate cupcake. You never know.

[defyingfrigidity]

[There's a moment when Elsa just stares at Anna, but the moment is broken when she just snorts, and breaks out into a peal of laughter.]

Anna, you goof!

[She's not surprised that Anna can bust out words like that, hell no. They had the same lessons and devoured the same books when they were growing up, so Elsa's always known that Anna is way more intelligent than some people might think. But it's just...!]

Of course you pick chocolate of all things to speak so eloquently about...

[rediscover]

i could definitely sing you a song!
i used to spend a lot of time singing to myself actually

not like in a loser way just like


well, maybe it was sort of in a loser way
but the point is i'm a good singer!

[rediscover]

[Anna barely lasts longer than Elsa does before she dissolves into helpless giggles. It feels so good to laugh with her sister, to make Elsa laugh. If anyone deserves to laugh, it's her.]

Well—what else deserves it? Lorna, definitely, I mean obviously, but chocolate? Well, I know you can appreciate it, too!

[defyingfrigidity]

[Especially after such a tense conversation, it really does feel good. Elsa's so used to negative things hanging over her in a cloud for so long, it's truly refreshing to have it all just... pushed away thanks to some well-timed joking.]

Oh, I can absolutely understand! But that doesn't make you any less of a goof.

[She reaches up, gently (because really she's not sure how sturdy Anna's new "hair" is??? they are just leaves right??) ruffling her sister's leaves.]

An incredibly sentimental goof. You're a dangerous combination, Anna.

[glowshine]

QUESTION!!!

How does singing to yourself make you a loser?

[rediscover]

[Anna laughs and ducks her head; her leaves stand up to Elsa's ruffling just fine, and Elsa might actually notice that a few of them are beginning to turn yellow-orange at the tips. Her sunflowers have almost all died and fallen off, but there are the beginnings of some different flower buds shooting up above her bangs.]

I'll accept it. I mean, you're not really wrong. But who knows, Elsa? Maybe you'll meet someone here who turns you into a sentimental goof, too...

[She waggles her eyebrows suggestively. Anna would love nothing more than to find her sister a special someone.]

[rediscover]

um
well

i was alone for a long time growing up
i didnt really have any friends or anything
so it was sort of...i dont know it just sounds kinda pathetic looking back

[defyingfrigidity]

I'm not so sure about that...

[Elsa laughs again, but this time it's... a little more awkward. She's never really thought about anything like that - never let herself think about it. For so much of her life she's had to keep a barrier between herself and others, so even when she had grown into her teenage years and indulged a bit in the grand romantic stories in the castle's library, she never really imagined that happening to her. She could barely even touch another person in all those years of isolation, what hope did she have for any kind of romance?

Of course there was also her duties as queen, and how it was expected of her to marry at some point, but that's just a whole other set of baggage.]

I doubt I'll have the same luck you do.

[glowshine]

But you got the practice you needed, didn't you?

You're selling yourself short...

[rediscover]

I guess so....
my point is, i'm excited about the idea of singing with other people!
so i hope you like my audition!

[rediscover]

That's okay! I'm sure enough for the both of us!

[She gives Elsa a bolstering grin.] After all, there are zillions of people here! There's got to be someone who'd make a good match for you. You're kind, and beautiful, and super smart! Any guy would be so lucky to have you!

[Or girl. Not that Anna says that aloud, but she's thinking it. Who knows?]

[glowshine]

If you pass, I can teach you something too.

Do you know where Castle Mirai is, or would you like me to come by?

i don't know where you live but that's okay!!

[defyingfrigidity]

[There are many things that can be considered infectious when they come from Anna. Laughing, silliness, general happiness and excitement? Sure, those are totally infectious! But self-esteem? That's.... that's not really something Elsa can get from anyone. Her self-esteem is pretty shaky even on good days, so it's hard for her to really get it from anyone.

... Besides, she just. Doesn't really feel anything at Anna's encouragement that a guy would be lucky to have her. Huh.]

Well... we'll see, I suppose. [She doesn't sound entirely convinced, even as she says it.] I never thought we'd be kidnapped by some mysterious god and dropped into a strange land where we turn into monsters, so the idea of finding... someone shouldn't be outside the realm of possibility either.

[Though that would sort of complicate things, wouldn't it? She has responsibilities back home in Arendelle that Anna doesn't, when it comes to partnering up with someone...]

[rediscover]

i'd love that!

i can come to you, actually!

[Probably best not to invite random people over to the castle...]

[glowshine]

Sounds great! The address is [ ADDRESS I DO NOT KNOW HERE ].

I'll be out in the front! You can't miss me, I swear.

[rediscover]

[Anna can sense that Elsa isn't exactly as into the whole idea as she is, and it makes her excitement die down to a more acceptable level.]

Exactly! That's exactly right. But—hey, if not, if you're not into the whole thing, well, that's okay, too!

[She gives Elsa's arm a squeeze.]

I don't want to force you to do anything you're not a hundred percent on board with!

[defyingfrigidity]

... To be honest, I'm not sure if I'm into it or not.

[It's probably just because she prevented herself from thinking about it for so many years. Maybe if she allows herself to be open to the idea she'll feel better about it?? Feelings are weird, man.]

But believe me, if I ever start feeling something for someone else, you'll be the first person I tell. I promise.
