13* P.I.D is definitely one of the best authors when it comes to ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}'' fan fiction. They only write one shots, and all of them are worth a read. All characters are portrayed perfectly, and the situations in which they are written in are very entertaining. Pretty much exclusively of the romance/humor/heartwarming genre.

17* They are brilliant at character portrayal. They balance motivations, personalities, and relationships perfectly, and are just a good writer in general, with dynamic and enthralling storylines, even if it's just a one shot.

21* Definitely one of, if not the most, popular Tangled authors. His stories "What You Don't Know" and "Trust Me" have racked up hundreds of reviews, and for very good reason: they are fantastic. His character's personalities are spot-on, his development is wonderful, his pacing is perfect, and his writing itself is incredible.

25* He writes very good Tangled stories. His 'Rapunzel Goes Home extended edition" is by far one of the greatest stories I've read Period, and his "Abusing Hair Power" was so chillingly cruel I was glad for the ending. All of his are worth a read, they're just amazing.

29* She writes some very well thought out AU fics. She has a real talent for taking the light Disney fun and making a dark but believable story out of it. "Bad Influence" is probably her best.
