2
3	Now with a sequel called ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7926378/1/Roused Roused]]'' which has Rapunzel coming to counsel Princess Aurora and ties up some loose ends from ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty''.
4	----
5	!!''Rapunzel Goes Home'' provides examples of:
6
7	* AfterActionPatchUp: In ''Roused'' after a chase scene in the forest.
8	* ARareSentence: Hook-hand actually realizes how ''insane'' his defense of "a horse told me to do so" sounds like when the King asks why he helped a prisoner on death row to escape his execution.
9	* ArtisticLicenseBiology: In chapter 45. Queen Rebecca suspects that Rapunzel and Eugene had sex that night at the campfire because she believes that because of the way Rapunzel's eating, the only logical explanation is pregnancy, despite both a doctor and the orphanage headmistress both informing her that Rapunzel is still a virgin. She also mentions that because she has birthed fourteen children (Rapunzel being the only one that survived past infancy) she knows just about everything about pregnancy and childbirth, so you'd think that she'd know that no-one shows signs of pregnancy until 4 weeks in. According to Eugene in this chapter, he has only known Rapunzel for ''four days!'' On a small side note, Rapunzel is not pregnant.
10	* AutomatonHorses: {{Averted}}. Following his heroic run to bring Flynn to the tower, Maximus is in a rather pitiful state and needs rest and care.
11	* {{Backstory}}: Plenty of secondary and primary characters get quite a lot.
12	* BewareTheNiceOnes: The King and Queen are fair and kind rulers, but they become very, ''very'' scary when Rapunzel is threatened.
13	* ColdBloodedTorture: Let's just say Gothel's lucky she aged to death before the King and Queen got to her.
14	* CrazyPrepared: The Guard intended for the infant princess spent eighteen years to speculate on her return's circumstances. So when Rapunzel is brought by her criminal sweetheart, the Captain only needs to find the adequate file.
15	* DarkerAndEdgier: For being based on Disney princesses, this goes to some ''really'' dark places.
16	* DeconstructionFic: ''Roused'' in particular deconstructs the "Happily Ever After" Disney standard and shows a lot more baggage that needs to be dealt with.
17	* DissonantSerenity: The Queen is eerily calm when she describes her planned punishment for her daughter's kidnapper. It takes it nearly into NightmareFuel territory.
18	* EldritchAbomination: ''Roused'' introduces the Goon Queen, a giant monster living under the Forbidden Mountain that gives birth to Maleficent's goons.
19	* ForWantOfANail: The characters have nightmares of different horrible ways ''Tangled'' could have ended because of minor changes. Rapunzel lost the flag and never got her memories back; the mirror never broke and Flynn couldn't cut her hair; Rapunzel's hair is never ''ever'' cut and creates a world where nobody can ever die.
20	* GrandTheftMe: In ''Roused'', [[spoiler: Maleficent tries to do this with Princess Aurora.]]
21	* TheILoveYouStigma: The trauma of Gothel's betrayal makes Rapunzel very uncomfortable telling anyone she loves them or hearing them say they love her.
22	* LoopholeAbuse: Exploited by Rapunzel to prevent the Guard from arresting Eugene on sight, as she immediately declares herself the Lost Princess. As he's her companion, Eugene is safe until she's brought to the Castle and tested.
23	* MamaBear: Rapunzel's mother, Queen Rebecca.
24	* NinjaMaid: The royal family has a whole group of these, known as the Lock Maids. Margaret, Rapunzel's primary maid, is particularly good with throwing knives.
25	* NoPeriodsPeriod: Averted -- Gothel grouses this is an aspect of youth she didn't miss ''at all'', and Rapunzel actually suffered a FirstPeriodPanic as she thought she was hurting and couldn't heal herself.
26	* OverlyLongName: Rapunzel actually was born Solara Rebecca Agatha Menolly Von Sonnenshein, and tacks "Rapunzel" as a first name after being formally crowned as the princess of Corona.
27
28	* SadisticChoice: Corona's law would make the King hang a criminal disturbing the peace. It unfortunately involves the people who finally brought the Lost Princess back to her parents.
29	* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Apparently that's a ''thing'' with princesses. Rebecca gained the ability after marrying Leonard.
30	* StartOfDarkness: [[spoiler: Of Maleficent.]]
31	* WhatTheHellHero: The King has this reaction to [[spoiler: the Three Good Fairies from ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty'' after she's traumatized by their deception of being her aunts]].
32	* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: The King is incredulous to hear Eugene doesn't think he's worthy of Rapunzel after spending several days constantly protecting her and ultimately giving his life for her freedom.
