Sunlit Moon (Varian x OC. Complete! [sequel cancelled for now.])

The King and Queen of Hearts

A/N: So I've been getting more and more requests from a loyal reader/reviewer over on Fan Fiction  asking me to find a way to work in the Tangled: ever after short, and it will be included in this, but I also got a request from said reader and reviewer to bring Artemis' mother back from the dead, I'd considered the idea in planning this story, but it would undo a lot of what I planned for season 3 if I did So, sadly Neither Delilah nor Freya will be making anything other than Cameo's, that being said, I have some future chapters in the works that I think all of you will be both shocked yet pleased by involving our lovely couple of Varian and Artemis.

Now, that being said. I really love hearing what you guys would like to see, and I do have an alternative story planned based around a 'What-If' scenario involving Varian going on the road with Rapunzel and the others in season 2 and them finding Artemis inside the great tree. I'm hashing out details but I'd love to know if you guys would read it! Maybe He just leaves Corona and through some fluke they end up travelling together, you'll have to wait and see <3

Blue and gold eyes watched in confusion as Varian started laughing like a Psycho, "Are...you okay?"

"Rudiger, get out of my apron, that tickles."

"Okay...two questions...okay, never mind, one questions, how did he get into your apron?"

Varian quirked a brow at her, "He's very sneaky." Varian shrugged as the raccoon chittered and ran away, "Are you sure this is going to work?"

"If my new machine works the way I think it should, and it will, we are moments away from reversing the effects of the Sapporian's memory wand." Artemis winced as King Fredericks beard puffed out,

"Is...that supposed t happen?"

"Eh, minor side effect from the electricity." When the machine suddenly powered down one of the hoses disconnected.

"You forgot to secure the compound line?!" Pink liquid splattered all over the room, dousing the king, Queen, Rapunzel and herself with the horrid substance.

"Eh, where am I, and why am I so...gooey?" Rapunzel looked on with dismay, "I'm sorry, Rapunzel. I was so sure this was gonna work. I've tried everything."

"You did your best. And besides, I have another method up my sleeve. Don't get me wrong, the power of science is impressive, but it is nothing compared to the power of love." Artemis scrapped some of the pink goop off her face,

"Don't beat yourself up over it, Varian, we can just make a few modifications to your machine and try again, right?" The hose backfired again, covering the princess in more of the goop,

"Mm, strawberry."

"You made an edible compound?" Varian just shrugged in confusion, "You're not mad?"

"Why would I be mad? Because you didn't screw a hose on tight enough? Mistakes happen, Var."

"Ooh, Var?" Rapunzel coaxed, "What have you two been up to?" she wiggled her eyebrows suggestively nad both teens turned bright red.

"Wh-what? Nothing—"

"Stay out of it, Rapunzel." The younger blonde's voice carried warning with it, "All right, all right..." she rose her hands defensively.

"The day of hearts was always your day of the year because it was the day you proclaimed your love for one another by signing Herz de Sonne's diary. Remember?"

Artemis nudged Varian, "It's also, sort of, our anniversary." She teased, watching him turn that cute shade of pink she thought added to his charm.
