You and Elsa?

[Cass watches Anna take a seat in the grass and, after some consideration, she joins her, cross-legged in front of her. She can't hear the grass, but it does make a good seat.]

Well, it's not exactly how I thought your first training day was going to go... but I've got time to listen if you do. I'm actually really curious.

[rediscover]

'Course! It's not like I'm training for a gladiator fight or anything, after all.

[Anna's gratified that someone seems to want to hear her story. The story of her, and Elsa, and Hans, and Kristoff, and Olaf...

Gods, she misses Olaf.

So she tells Cassandra everything. The whole story, which is hard because she sounds kinda stupid for a lot of it. But by the time she's finished, she's got a fond grin on her face.]

And then I punched him so hard in the face he went sprawling into the fjord!

[feudalladyshandmaid]

[Oh, Anna. Don't give Cassandra any ideas. She's going to have to tell you about the Challenge of the Brave someday.

But, right now, she sits back, and quietly listens to Anna's story about... everything. The coronation day, meeting Hans, Elsa's escape, Olaf.

What is with princess and magical creatures?

Cassandra listens thoughtfully, making note of some of the things Anna says. By the end, she's transfixed, and lets out a laugh at the punch.]

Ha! That'll show him for trying to mess with both of you! What happened to him after that?

[rediscover]

[By the end of it, Anna's just glad that Cassandra is laughing at Hans, and not at her. She grins, and shrugs her shoulders.]

He was arrested, and sent back to the Southern Isles for his family to deal with. But I like to imagine he's somewhere shoveling manure all day, personally. He'd hate that.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

[Look, Cass can laugh at a lot of things; she'll laugh at Sven and Kristoff, and at some of the more clumsy antics Anna gets up to, but she will absolutely laugh at a loser like Hans.]

Stuck up guy like that? He'd wish he was just thrown in jail after a few rounds of stable duty. [The thought brought her some joy, honestly.] Seriously, I'm sorry, but guys are the worst.

[She's not very sorry.]

[rediscover]

Ha, you're probably right. He really was, just...

[Anna laughs, because Cass has just voiced her exact opinion.]

The worst! Exactly! It's like...they're almost not worth bothering with.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Trust me, they're not. More often than not, they're just bad news, and using you for something.

[...Snrk. She had to snicker, as a thought slipped into her mind.]

Like this guy I was "dating." Hubert. He was a piece of work, that's for sure.

[rediscover]

Hubert? Everyone in your world has the worst names!

[Like you're anyone to talk, with your Olafs and your Svens and your Gerdas, Anna.]

...Except you, and Rapunzel. Those are both nice names, actually. But what did he do that was so awful?

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Hey.

[That's Rapunzel erasure. But then....]

...Fair enough. [She sits back, looking at the dummy again. Boy, if that didn't seem familiar before.] Well, if you want to know, I guess it's okay. Considering everything you just told me...

[And she tells her, everything; the book of Herz Der Sonne, the festival of hearts, how Andrew walked into her life, how Rapunzel fell into the tale, and finally the fight in a hot air balloon.

It's a gripping tale, if shorter than Annas, bit less than half an hour to tell, with no breaks.]

...So I got a medal for my hard work, and that loser Hubert got put behind bars. The end.

[rediscover]

[Anna is listening raptly to every detail; she loves stories, and this is a true one! When Cassandra finally finishes, Anna's got her chin propped in both hands, completely captured by the story.]

Wow, you weren't kidding! He was a loser. I hope he stayed there, too!

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Yeah, here's hoping. I didn't put months of work behind that to let him get out on good behavior.

[Several months of acting straight took it right out of her.]

But it feels kind of good knowing that's not the only time that sort of thing's happened.

[rediscover]

I’m hoping Hans didn’t either...but something tells me his family probably didn’t go too easy on him.

[Anna shrugs and gives Cassandra a grin.] Considering i’m pretty sure we both come from the same world...it’s not too surprising that we’ve both gone through some crazy stuff!

[feudalladyshandmaid]

Well, there is a Arendelle in my world, but I've never been to it.

[Something about the royals never opening their doors yet, and no coronations to hear of.]

Although, if I knew you two, I would have tried to visit a long time ago.
