Things were finally looking up for Percy Joyce. She had escaped the world of retail with a real job in the business world. Unfortunately, she had sent out so many résumés to corporate America she was fairly certain the US Forest Service and/or Greenpeace were going to be visiting her soon to discuss the havoc she wreaked on the biosphere and some poor unsuspecting forest. But the good news was, after deforesting half of Maine, she had landed a job as a junior mechanical engineer with The Flynn Group. She had a wonderful boss and mentor in Mr. Noble who took the time to keep her on a solid growth path in her profession and the company.
But all that changed on April 1.
With the Announcement.
Shortly after her life and job became inexorably intertwined and quickly spiraled out of control. Eventually the Tower brought everything crashing down around her.

Sun & Moon
Rapunzel was never saved by Flynn Rider. He did take her to see the lights, but in the end, he only cared about money. The princess was forced to return to her tower and live a miserable life, believing she would never escape her "Mother's" grasp or learn about her true identity. However, everything changed one day when she had an unexpected visitor, Jack Frost. Jack was drawn to her voice and couldn't bear to leave her in her poor state, so he freed her, and they flew away together into the night. He taught her about the world and herself. Over the years, they fell in love, married, and went on to have two daughters, Elsa and Anna. Elsa was born with powers that were stronger than her father's, while Anna was born without powers. They believed Anna would be just as powerful as her sister once her powers surfaced. They were a picture-perfect superhuman family, but what could possibly go wrong? I want to clarify that I don't own any of these characters. Disney and Dreamworks do. I came up with this story after seeing a Jackunzel illustration where Elsa and Anna were their children. I ship both Jackunzel and New Dream (Rapunzel x Eugene), so don't worry, you'll see some Raps x Eugene moments in later chapters. I may also add some other Disney/Dreamworks characters down the line.

Alchemist Out Of Corona
We all know what happened to Varian in the first season of "Tangled: The Series." He became the villain, was defeated by Rapunzel, and thrown into prison for a whole year. Yes, he redeemed himself and returned for the third season, but the lack of his presence was felt by fans everywhere throughout the entire second season of the show. So what would have happened if he had redeemed himself sooner and been there for the gang's life-changing journey throughout the second season? How would he have reacted to all those adventures he missed? Find out in this AU fanfic! You will see how he deals with his still-suspicious friends, his unrequited crush on Cassandra, and his search for a way to free his father. "Next stop, anywhere!" (Note: All rights go to Disney. This fanfic basically reads like a novelization of the second season, while also adding artwork and my own original Varian content.)Complete
