"Rapunzel was special, because at one point, I loved her. It was weird. I had a thing for the moon, and she had a thing for the sun. Sun and the Moon, Hiccup would call us." Tooth gave a small smile as she watched Jack lean backwards, a wistful expression etched on his face.

"You did? She must have been something."

"She was."

"You're making me curious! Tell me already!"

I stood on a sturdy branch a few dozen feet above the ground, watching as the lights disappeared into the sky. The tribute to the lost princess. I attempted to remember telling Hiccup about them once I got back to Berk, but I decided to do a bit of investigating.

I streaked through the skies, scanning the grounds. I'd heard legends of a tall tower that could only be accessed through air that the lost princess might reside. This all came from a drunk barman, but it was a source nonetheless.

"Whoa!" I tumbled through a canopy of weeping willows and landed painfully on the cone-shaped roof of a twisted tower. It was surrounded by beautiful scenery, waterfalls cascading down, creating rainbows here and there.

"Who's there?!" A high-pitched, fearful voice floated from the opened window below me. I scrambled forwards on my stomach, staff clasped tightly in my hands as I peeked through the window. A black shape came hurtling towards my face, causing me to flinch sharply out the way. It swung at me again, almost hitting me while I fell through the window. A scream welcomed me, along with the object flying towards me again.

"Stop it! I'm not going to hurt you!"

"Liar!" I cowered, hands up, staff skittering across the flat stones. I looked up cautiously, only to be greeted by a pair of angry green eyes that bore a hole through my head. Long, golden hair flowed from her pale scalp to the floor, easily a good few feet long. I gaped.

"Are you the lost princess?"

"What? No, I'm Rapunzel. And I'm no princess." The girl backed away more slowly. "And I know you're here for my hair!"

"What? No! Why would I want your hair?" I complained, watching warily as she lowered her frying pan.

"Mother Gothel said people were bad out there, that they all wanted my hair. It makes you immortal, you know." I laughed softly.

"I have no use for further immortality."

"You don't?"

"I'm already immortal." I grinned as she gasped. Rapunzel, probably about 12, rushed for the bookcases, flipping madly through a book and pointing to a picture of a winter spirit, shocking white hair like mine with the same pale complexion.

"That's you!"

"Not exactly." I extended my hand as I stood up. "I'm Jack Frost."

"I started visiting regularly since then, although there were some time gaps where I journeyed around even more, visiting my own hometown while checking up and spending time with Hiccup. She eventually remembered how I acted when she was 18, and decided she'd base the people out there the same way she judged me. I was an inspiration for her freedom." Tooth's eyes grew wide, pitiful.

"How has she not become immortal, since her hair keeps her alive?"

"She lost the power. Wanted to loose it. Flynn cut it off."

"Flynn?"

"Her husband."

"What? I thought you had something together."

"We did."

I sauntered through the window pane, smiling fondly as I watched Rapunzel comb her hair quietly. She was 17 now, a year younger than when I had died. She'd blossomed from a cute, slightly awkward child to a beautiful teenager. She turned around, shooting me a grin as she flew across the stones to embrace me.

"Jack! So, how were your outwardly exploration trips?"

"Amazing. I have a letter for you from Hiccup, by the way." Rapunzel and Hiccup had been pen palling each other, using me as a messenger. I didn't really mind, considering they were both my best friends. Also, they both needed a sort of lease. I hadn't truly figured out whether Rapunzel was the lost princess or not, but I had had my suspicions.

"Oooh! Goody!" She playfully snatched the letter from my hands and laid it down on her dressing table. Rapunzel ran up to me and buried her face in my chest.

"I missed you."

"I missed you even more."

"I missed you the most."

"It's so beautiful, but I always have deja vu when I say it."

"You do?"

"I repeat the same thing with Mother Gothel, but with the word love."

"I love you Punzie."

"You do?"

"Forever."

"How'd she meet Flynn?" Tooth was hesitant in asking her questions. She was certain Jack was pained when first finding out about Rapunzel's new love interest, and if she was correct, being immortal meant you carried the pain until the end of time.

"He was the one who guided her out. He was the one who found out about her being the missing princess. Rider's a good man, and I'm glad he's the one who married Punzie."

"Liar. You're not glad, you're pained. And grateful."

"Maybe." Tooth smiled sadly as she detected pain lancing his words.

"How did she break it to you?"

I cut through the winds, the breeze grazing my cheeks as I flew. I'd heard about Rapunzel's epic escape from the castle, along with a thief. I cursed. If he'd hurt her, he'd better be saying goodbye to his head. I touched down on the castle balcony, where Rapunzel, now with cropped brown hair, and now well over twenty, stood. I'd been revisiting the tower, only to find it vacant for years. Only now had my stupid brain come up with the conclusion of her being the official princess of Corona.

"Punz..." Her head snapped up, and I could see the panic in her eyes.

"Jack!" Instead of hurrying towards me and demanding why I hadn't been visiting her, she stepped forwards tentatively.

"What is it Punzie?" I winked playfully. I'd heard about how the stupid thief had cut off all her immortal hair, which meant she couldn't be by my side forever, but I hadn't yet put the pieces together.

"I'm... I'm married." Shock. Silence. "But I still love you, it's just that I love Flynn... well, as a husband! He's the one who showed me my true identity, helped me out of the tower!" She rushed on. "And... I was hoping I could keep your friendship. Please?"

"My heart was broken for years and months. I still sometimes can't get over it. But it's okay. We were friends until... until the end."

Tooth remained silent, allowing Jack time to grieve and remember. His eyes fluttered, he was taking long, deep breaths. Shadows fell across his white face as the moon hung ripely in the sky.

"Tell me about the last one." She murmured quietly, glancing over at Jamie, who was taking short, sharp breaths.

"This one..." Jack chuckled softly. "This one was quite the little spitfire."
