If Mymble is Snufkins mom why is Little My Snufkin’s half sister and not aunt??

At first when I heard she was his half sister I thought I was just mistaken and Little My’s mom was actually Snufkin’s mom too. But every time I look it up everything says Mymble’s his mom but it also says Little My’s his half sister and that makes no sense.

Is Mymble actually Little My’s mom not her sister and I just misunderstood??

I've done it! I've finally seen my neighbors bring groceries in their house. Granted, it's the house after my direct neighbor, but still, it counts! We're not in a simulation!

Before anyone says, no I wasn't specifically looking for it, I just noticed their car pull up and then saw them bring groceries in. They use reusable bags.

Help!!😭 I was looking at the top run thing and saw you could change the country you’re competing in. I was curious if you could just hop around to see what the top scores of other countries are. You can not, and now there’s a little timer next to CANADA and it says I’ll be competing in Canada the next run. I don’t want that, can I cancel it, I’m not Canadian, please. I know I‘m close and my state is obsessed with maple syrup but I’m NOT Canadian!!😭 please tell me I can cancel it😢

Okay, so, idk if this has been said before, but I was listening to all the songs in order again because I just saw the new Odyssey, and I just listened to no longer you where he says “I see you draw your final breath” and “I see a man who gets to make it home alive, but it’s no longer you” right? But we know Odysseus doesn’t die, and we know when he says “it’s no longer you” he means it’s no longer you as you are, you become a new man. I think his “final breath” is in the song Monster, it‘s kind of crazy to listen to specifically thinking about it and then listening to No Longer You at that part and thinking about Monster.

“I lost my best friend, I lost my mentor, my mom. 500 men gone, this can’t go on. I must get to see Penelope and Telemachus, so if we must sail through dangerous oceans and beaches, I’ll go where Poseidon won’t reach us, and if I gotta drop another infant from a wall in an instant so we all don’t die.“

he says everything from ”So” in one breath and then at the end, I think that’s when he takes his said final breath, before he sings “Then I’ll become the monster, I will deal the blow, and I’ll become the monster like none they’ve ever known” which is now the new man, who does make it home. The monster.

My grandparents aren’t dead, but they’re old and I know it’s going to happen some day. fairly far from now too, but I just don’t want them to at all. I keep crying because I know eventually all my experiences I’m having with them are just going to be distant memories and I’m not going to be able to go see them ever again. what am I supposed to do with that knowledge?? I can’t fix it, they’re going to die and I’ll never see them again and there’s nothing I can do.

And then my parents! I wish time would freeze and nobody would die

I’ve beard that the movies jumble a bunch of stuff around and I want to know which books are, like, spoiled in the different movies.

like does the first movie have some stuff from the second and third book but nothing late or some stuff from every book?

I haven’t finished all the books but I kinda wanna watch the first movie😔 and I don’t want any spoilers or anything.

The way Fredric ignored Old Corona’s issue with the rocks, the way he had double standards for the people living in the Capital vs people living in Old Corona (Varian sort of felt it the most)

Example one: Xavier’s mood potion like an episodes or two before was used by Xavier, Max, and Pascal to completely swap Rapunzel, Eugene, and Casandra’s personalities to the opposite extreme, while the ruler of another kingdom was visiting causing Rapunzel to act very rudely to this king. In trying to reverse this they end up fixing those 3 but reversing everyone else INCLUDING THE KING AND QUEEN which made Fredric aggressive and confrontational, WHICH PRACTICALLY STARTED A WAR!!! And they experienced little to no punishment for this. A few days later or whatever Varian altered it into a truth potion to find out if the flower was in the castle. He made it into cookies and gave them to Pete. Idk if Pete gave the cookie to other people or what but it spread. Lots of people were just like, mildly insulting some people and revealing some minor secrets, and that’s all the problems it caused. They acted like it was a horrific psychotic crime that he could only be an insane maniac to do, Rapunzel literally said at the end if the episode “I don’t even know what he is anymore” like, girl. You literal pets and the local blacksmith almost started a WAR like yesterday and it was chill, but a truth potion makes Varian, a 15 year old boy, into a “WHAT” in your eyes???

Example two: Varian’s villain arch vs Cassandra’s villain arch.

Varian, was a sad 15 year old boy who was messing around with chemicals because the KING wouldn’t do SHITE about the POINTY DEADLY INDESTRUCTIBLE DEADLY MURDER ROCKS THAT SPONTANEOUSLY POP OUT OF THE GROUND INTO PEOPLE’S HOMES AND PROBABLY INTO PEOPLE IF THIS WEREN’T A KIDS SHOW!! (this in itself feels like a classist thing to me “oh it’s just the peasant farmers, it’s okay.”) one of the chemicals he made created the amber. Quirin came down and caught him messing with the rocks (which were already stabbed through his little basement lab area) which he wasn’t supposed to do and they got in a fight. Varian was upset because the Quirin lied to the king (the king fricken new though) and was saying if they weren’t gonna do anything then he’ll just fricken do it himself. Quirin was saying he doesn’t understand blah blah and then saw the amber growing. He pushed Varian out of the way and got caught in the amber. Varian ran through a blizzard to get to the Island Capital of Corona to try to get help. he finally finds Rapunzel and BEGS for her help but she says she can’t and the guards DRAG him away. He’s accused of attacking her, he steals the flower, and they act like he’s just an evil maniac. When he takes the flower Rapunzel says “we’ll help you just not like this” but only after he’s stealing something. It had been days and days since the blizzard and she hadn’t made a single attempt to reach out to him, so y’know, why would he believe that you’re trying to help him at all? and then still after he takes the flower she does‘t just GO to Old Corona, the peasant farmer town, to be like, lets address the situation and see what we can do, she sits in her castle moping about how he has the flower and there‘s “nothing she can do“. The whole thing keeps spiraling down until Varian ends up kidnapping the Queen still just in a desperate attempt to save his goddamn dad, which still nobody has reached out to him about yet. After they beat him he’s arrested, Fredric says they’ll do everything they can to try to free Quirin and we never here anything about Quirin OR VARIAN WHO IS ROTTING IN PRISON for a whole season which I believe was a whole year. At the end of season 2 we finally see Varian again and it seems the DUNGEON of course failed to help this grieving child and instead lead him further into the world of crime because there he met a group of criminals and they took over the kingdom by erasing the King and Queens memory. FINALLY Rapunzel has an honest one on one talk with him, he admits at this point all he wants is to erase everyone’s memories so they forget what he fid to them so he can just live his life and be a happy kid again. Rapunzel tells him it’s okay snd they can still be friends or whatever, and they smile at each other. Finally she helps Quirin snd they live happily ever after yippee.

So short recap of the important parts Varian messed up and his dad more or less functionally died. He asked for help, didn’t get it, got ignored and accused of violence, and he took things into his own hands. It got out of control and he did commit serious crimes. His punishment was prison for a year (which made it worse for a hot minute) and still afterwards social outcasting by the people in the Capital.

Now Cassandra… She’s always had some issues with Rapunzel. Issues with boundaries and feeling unheard. she got some of the classism, a little bit, since she’s technically Rapunzel’s lady in waiting she’s always feels like she’s in her shadow and sometimes always does what Rapunzel says more or less. But also not really because Rapunzel saw her as a friend more than anything. The frustration of these issues built up in her over time. She then found out Gothel, Rapunzel’s kidnapper, was her biological mother. She had this weird thing that somehow that made Rapunzels destiny actually hers or something? which doesn’t actually make any sense because even if your mom did love you the sundrop would have still gone to Rapunzel, she would just have significantly less trauma. But that still is the driving force of her arch for some reason. Her feeling like she had her destiny stolen from her and like she’s always made to wait on the side lines. She response to these feelings, instead of talking with Rapunzel about these feelings like a responsible 22(?) year old, by STEALING THE MOON STONE as Rapunzel is about to grab and fix the entire issue. She rationalizes this with some nonsense about destiny and she has the right to it because Rapunzel gets a magic thing and she wants one too. She then spends the entiiiire third season tormenting all of Corona and plotting to, idk, murder Rapunzel?? she also Kidnaps someone, but it was Varian instead if the queen. She stabs a painting of rapunzel, I assume, as a symbol for that she’s gonna try to murder her.

Meanwhile she’s also teamed up with a DEMON, Zahn Tiri, doing everything it says which is obviously all evil. Again this is all over the span of potentially another whole year? I think each season is a year. Varians thing was the last like 6-8 episodes of season 1 and the last episode of season 2 (maybe 1st of season 3)

She makes those red rocks which literally paralyze a bunch of people with fear they could’ve potentially paralyzed the whole fricken kingdom. She goes to the Capital during Eugene’s birthday thing looking for the demanitus scroll and then this is when she kidnaps Varian because she wants the  4th incantation, but she needs it to be translates snd Varian destroyed the translator he made mean he’s the only one who knows what it says. Oh and she also leaves Rapunzel to die in a fire because of some stupid mirror piece showing literally ONE instance of Gothel being nice to her which was lowkey obviously just Gothel trying to get Cassandra to leave her alone. The plot is all over the place and nonsensical but it’s wild, she wants to murder Rapunzel and take down the whole kingdom. And they specifically say in the show that it’s worse than Varian’s arch so don’t even say his is worse to me. All he wanted was to free his dad from the stupid amber. He was willing to do this at any cost even the potential cost of Rapunzel’s life, but he wasn’t aiming to kill her.

Rapunzel eventually talks Cassandra out of her crazy nonsense, they defeat Zahn Tiri and they all live happily ever after. 

Okay, recap for Cassandra. She decided she actually deserves Rapunzel’s Destiny because Gothel was her mom, and their relationship was already a little rough as well. But like, that’s to be expected from a girl who was locked in a tower for the first 18 years of life, not as an excuse but a reason. Because she feels entitled to Rapunzel’s destiny she steals the moon stone and wants to kill Rapunzel and take over the kingdom, but she’s actually just being used by a demon. She gets concerningly close before Rapunzel talks her out of it or something. And guess what her punishment is?? NOTHING!! SHE GETS NO PUNISHMENT, NO JAIL TIME, NOT EVEN REQUIRED PUBLIC SERVICE!! SHE GOES OFF ON HER OWN SOLO ADVENTURE!!!!!

Why on EARTH did Varian go to JAIL a literal DUNGEON after begging for help with his dad getting denied and then ignored and then just simply trying to free his dad. He thought the flower had the Sundrop, realized it was in rapunzel. He then kidnapped the Queen to lure Rapunzel in just to stick her hair in a drill because he thought her indestructible hair would break the indestructible amber. It failed, he had a mental break down because Rapunzel and her PARENTS had a nice happy reunion with a nice hug IN FRONT OF VARIAN who is SOBBING on the floor IN FRONT OF HIS STILL FROZEN DAD. He impulsively gets in one of the robots and snatches Cassandra and The Queen and tries to kill them by like, squeezing them really hard. It fails obviously. Varian literally says “If I can’t have a Happy ending neither can you” and “It’s not enough until you endure the same amount of pain and AGONY I have” HE’S JUST AN ANGRY, SAD, GRIEVING 15 YEAR OLD!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AND ALL THAT IS HOLY GIVE HIM A HUG, SOME THERAPY, AND HELP HIS FREAKING DAD PLEAAASE!! But no. JAIL FOR YOU PEASANT FARMER BOY

Cassandra felt ENTITLED to power because she was mad that her mom hated her and “chose rapunzel” and also she wanted it. She literally ended up with an awesome dad, and an awesome job because nepotism, and an insanely fortunate position in society, she was BEST FRIENDS with the PRINCESS of the kingdom she lives in. But she didn’t have the power she wanted, so she stole the moon stone and planned to kill Rapunzel but she gets no consequences. Why? Because Rapunzel still liked her for some reason? Because she lived in the castle? Because her dad is the head of the royal guard? I wonder if there may be some biases here🤔
