Friends Don't Lie (Varian x Reader)

03. Holly Jolly

I couldn't find the transcript for this one in the right format that I wanted it to be in, so I literally had to take my phone and film the party's scenes while watching the episode on DVD (I don't have Netflix). I feel bad for doing it, but at least I'm deleting the videos after. Hopefully, that won't get me in trouble...

While the rest of the party was discussing what to do next, Varian was fiddling with the supercomm.

"We'll just tell our parents we have AV Club after school," Y/n suggested. "That'll give us at least a few hours for Operation Mirkwood."

"You seriously think that weirdo knows where Cat is?" Rapunzel asked.

"Just trust me on this one, ok?"

"Ok."

"Did you get the supplies?"

"Yeah." Rapunzel pulled out the things that she had packed in her backpack. "Binoculars from 'Nam, army knife also from 'Nam, hammer, camouflage bandana, and the wrist rocket."

"You're gonna take out the Demogorgon with a slingshot?" Ruddiger raised an eyebrow.

"First of all, it's a wrist rocket! And second of all, the Demogorgon's not real. It's made up, but if there is something out there, I'm gonna shoot it in the eye..." Rapunzel pulled the rubber part of the wrist rocket back and let go. The others flinched. "...and blind it."

Y/n looked over to Ruddiger. "Ruddiger, what did you get?"

Ruddiger hung his backpack over the table and dumped a lot of snacks onto it, confusing Rapunzel and Y/n.

"We'll, alrighty! So, we've got Nutty Bars, Bazooka, Pez, Smarties, Pringles, Nilla Wafer, apple, banana, and trail mix," Ruddiger listed.

"Seriously?" Rapunzel frowned.

"We need energy for our travels. For stamina," Ruddiger defended. "And besides, why do we even need weapons anyway? We have him!"

He gestured towards Varian, who was still messing around with the supercomm.

"He shut one door," Rapunzel argued.

"With his mind! Are you kidding me?! That's insane! Imagine all the other cool stuff he could do, like..." He ran over to Y/n's toy millennium falcon and held it in his arms. "I bet... he can make this fly!"

He held the millennium falcon out in front of Varian. "Hey. Hey. Ok, concentrate, ok?"

He raised it up above his head and dropped it. It fell to the ground, instead of floating like he had hoped it would. Varian glanced at him with a raised eyebrow and a not amused look.

"Ok, one more time." He reached to pick it up. "Ok. Use your powers, ok?"

He dropped the toy again and it hit the floor.

"Idiot," Rapunzel sighed. Y/n ran and scooped up the toy before Ruddiger could do anything again.

"He's not a dog!" Y/n snapped.

"Kids!" Karen called from upstairs. "Time for school!"

As the others rushed to pack up everything, Y/n kneeled in front of Varian. "Just stay down here. Don't make any noise and don't leave. If you get hungry, eat Ruddiger's snacks, ok?"

"Y/n!"

"COMING!!" Y/n turned back to look at Varian. "You know those power lines?"

"Power lines?" Varian asked.

"Yeah. The ones behind my house."

"Yes."

"Meet us there, after school."
