[Rapunzel had spent the last few days trying her hardest to remember who she was, where she had come from, and why she was here - or even...where she was.

But now...

Now she remembered.

And she wished that she didn't.]

I....I remember. I remember everything.

[That's all she says and then the book is slammed shut. She's out in the orchard, sitting under a tree with her head in her hands, quietly crying.]

I'm on my way.

[Let's let that homing device work, shall we? Asuka's going hunting for Rapunzel! It'll take him a few minutes to find her, but when he does, he's making a beeline for her, kneeling down and reaching out with full intentions of putting a hand on her shoulder if she'll let him.]

Rapunzel.

[He doesn't know what to say--"are you all right?" is stupid, as she's very obviously -not-.

So he just waits.]

[She's not going to stop him, she's too busy trying to wipe the tears from her face and stop crying.]

Asuka, hi.

Hi.

[He settles down to the ground beside her, though his hand doesn't leave her shoulder.]

Things looking any better than they were...?

[She gives her eyes a final rub, and then looks at him.]

Um...s-sure. Everything is fine, now.

[He chuckles softly.]

I don't know if I believe that. Things usually aren't fine after everything that's happened here.

But if they're getting better, that's at least something.

I guess they are.

[Sort of. She has friends to help, or so Kevas says, so...]

Are...are you okay?

Me? Yeah. I'm invincible, you know. Nothing's gonna take me down.

[A pause.]

I'm sorry I wasn't there.
