there is no difference 

❝           did    you    enjoy    yourself    last    night  ?            ❞

the sun casts a golden glow across the rooftops of camelot’s village as it begins to rise, and gwen wraps her cloak tightly around her shoulders against the chill it has not yet chased off as she makes her way towards the castle. the morning bustle is already beginning, the merchants having begun setting up their wares before the morning even thought of starting.

she collects a bouquet of pink flowers on her way, holding them close. the castle walls keep the cold air at bay and gwen shakes out her hair as she makes her way to rapunzel’s room. she always rises before morgana as it is, but gwen needn’t worry so much today - today gwen and rapunzel are to ride out on a pilgrimage. officially, for the sake of rapunzel’s health and well being. more privately...well. merlin is a supporter of practising magic, but gwen is conscious of the space.

PALACE  LIFE  HAD  SOFTENED  EUGENE.  many  would  see  that  as  a  good  thing.  no  longer  did  he  need  to  look  over  his  shoulder  in  fear  of  being  chased  or  betrayed  like  his  days  as  flynn.  and  he  didn't  need  to  worry  about  some  unknown  magical  object  nipping  them  in  the  ass  like  their  year  chasing  after  the  mystical  black  rocks.  eugene  found  it  easier  to  allow  his  mind  to  flow  into  a  false  sense  of  security  as  he  sat  with  his  legs  crossed  in  the  library.  the  fresh  breeze  pushing  through  open  windows  as  the  prince  consort  sat  and  read  alone.  

he  hadn't  noticed  when  rapunzel  had  walked  iinto  the  room.  he'd  been  too  engrossed  in  his  book  he  missed  the  sound  of  heavy  doors  opening  and  the  patter  of  bare  feet  against  the  marble.  flynn  would  be  ashamed  of  how  careless  eugene  was  being.  he  was  notified  of  her  presence  when  she  stood  in  front  of  him  and  gently  placed  her  finger  against  his  nose.  instantly  it  wrinkled  in  response  and  a  soft  chuckle  left  his  lips.

❝  well,  hello  to  you  too  miss  sneaky  princess.  i'm  impressed  at  your  new  found  stealth,  sunshine  ❞
