AN: So, this is was a wrote like 3 weeks ago after starting and abandoning two WIPs in one day. It's a little blurb for an alternate version of "No Time like the Past" where it's What if instead of time travel.

I don't, particularly, because I'm damn patient and can wait for my copy, but it wouldn't surprise me if other people in the fandom did. Thanks for the offer!

This sounds like a question better asked of author Margaret Owen, aka @what-eats-owls.

Well, there's the big debate of nature vs nurture. The implication is that her nature is to be sweet and kind. I suppose it can be broken down further to say that Rapunzel doesn't like how she feels when Gothel is mean to her and so won't act like that, and also, Gothel doesn't really let her behave the same way. She was probably taught morality and kindness as a child, because Gothel didn't want to have to deal with a younger version of herself when Rapunzel got older. She wanted someone obedient and demure.

“Yoink!”
