Everyone in Corona was gathered at the castle. Valor looked about the crowd of people. Her icy blue eyes fixed ahead of her, yet her body moves subconsciously closer towards Varian. She wasn't fond of being large cowards just yet.
Hanging over the king and the princess was a huge purple banner. Which read...
500th Anniversary
Good Will
Gopher Grab
The King and Rapunzel stood on the balcony. Over looking everyone. As Fredric address the citizens below. "We have much to celebrate during this year's Goodwill Gopher Grab. Not only is this the 500th anniversary, but we commemorate this, Princess Rapunzel's very first festival." Valor listens as everyone cheers and clapped out loud for the princess. Even Varian joined in.
"To makes this joyous event, our princess has redesigned the Gopher Grab deal of goodwill." The king reveals the new design Rapunzel had made. Loud cheers rang out through the crowd. "Ladies and gentlemen of Corona, Princess Rapunzel." King Fredric introduced his daughter.
"Thank you so much." As cheers and applauses rang out. "Aw! You're all kind." Rapunzel tells them. With her usual happy smile. Then a gravelly voice rang out. "Boo!" Everyone was quite making easier to hear him. Valor frowns and looks about, but couldn't see anything or anyone. "Who was that?" She mutters.
Yet looking back up at the king. He raised an eyebrow a bit upset hearing the boo. As for Rapunzel. Well she was oblivious to it and shouts back. "And boo to you too sir!" With a smile.
"Does she even realize what boo means?" Valor asked no one in-particular. Rapunzel just smiles on as she continues her speech. Valor sighs. "I guess not." "What as that?" Varian asked. Looking at her curiously. "What, oh just talking to myself." Valor quickly waves it off. "How about we go find the, Uh, whatever your needing now maybe we'll run to Cassandra on our way." She offered him. Varian quickly agrees with her leading the way through the crowd. Valor glances back up at Rapunzel with slight frown before shaking her head and hurried after Varian.

All around town people were hanging up the new Gopher Grab banner. As Rapunzel and Eugene made their way through town. Everyone waves as they walk by. "I gotta hand it to you, blondie..." a girl runs over hugging her. Rapunzel smiles and returns it. "The people of Corona love you." Eugene complements.
"They sure do know how to make a girl feel special." The girl walks off as they continued. "I mean, I've never heard so much applause, and somebody actually booed me." Rapunzel said with a happy smile.
"Forget that guy. I wouldn't pay too much attention.." Eugene tried to tell her scrawling. "..I've never ever heard that cheer before." Rapunzel interrupts him. Eugene frown stopping in his tracks. "It's so exotic." Rapunzel kept going on.
"Huh?" Eugene stares shocked. "Do you think he's from overseas?" The princess was still very oblivious to what was going on. "You don't know what boo means, do you?" Eugene asked her as she turns around to face him.
"Yeah, I do." Rapunzel scuffs. "It's a cheer! Like.. 'yippee!', 'hooray,' 'boo,' right?" Rapunzel asked him.
"Uh.."
"No?"
Rapunzel frowns. Looking at her boyfriend. "All right, so what does it mean?" She asked him. Clearly she must have miss understood what just happened. So, they went to find Cassandra to help explain things.
-line break-
"It means someone hates you." Cassandra said bluntly to Rapunzel. Who stares with wide shock eyes. "Way to candy-coat it, Cassandra." Eugene said leaning back in a chair tossing an apple. Glaring at Cassandra who was touching a Gopher.
"Why wouldn't someone like me?" Rapunzel asked clearly hurt by this. Walking out of the tent. "What could I have done to this person?" She asked them. "Rapunzel, who cares?" Eugene said. "Not everyone has to like you. That's part of life." Eugene points out to her.
"Eugene's right." Picking up the Gopher. "Someone could not like you for any number of reasons." Cassandra explains to her while she began brushing the Gopher. "For instance, maybe you have a stupid goatee that makes you look ridiculous.." Cassandra glances at Eugene with a smirk.
"..And someone might not like you for that." She insults. "You know, Cassandra, it's a little hard to take your insults seriously when your holding that thing." Eugene points at the Gopher she held. The Gopher grunts as she brushes him.
"This thing is important." Cassandra sets down the brush. Holding the Gopher up and walks over to portraits of him and others nobles.
"Gregorio the Goodwill Gopher represents half a millennium of honor and tradition throughout this kingdom." Cassandra explains as Eugene looks at the Gopher. "We're still talking about the rat, right?"
"Gopher." Cassandera corrected him. "And for your information, the Gopher Grab is a Corona institution. I was entrusted as the mascot's caretaker because it is a mark of hallowed esteem." Cassandra states proudly.
"Yeah, that's special." The Gopher grunts in response. "He just popped on you." Cassandra eyes wide as she looks down gasping. As Eugene walks over to Rapunzel. "Listen, blondie.. ugh.. you're just gonna have to accept the fact that some people aren't gonna like you." Eugene tells her.
"Ugh.." Rapunzel groans. "All I hear is his gravelly, 'Boo,' over and over in my head." The princess explains to him. "Rapunzel, I know your feelings are hurt. I get that." Eugene rest his hands on her shoulders. "But, hey, you gotta admit, if Cassandra and I are actually agreeing on something.."
Eugene looks over his shoulder at Cassandra. "..it's probably worth listening to. Let this one." Eugene tells stepping backwards lowering his hands. "You know what." *sighing* "You're right. Thank you." Rapunzel tells him giving him a kiss then left the tent and the others.
"Yeah, no." Put hand on his hip. "She's not." Eugene concludes. "Nope, not letting it go."
Cassandra agreed while brushing the Gopher.
