[ probably even more mysterious as to why varian is behind the counter is why rapunzel is further ahead in line, buying the 20th sugared drink today. no, that's a lie, nothing is more mysterious than why varian was hired. but the story goes as such: after the invention of the portal (one that rapunzel frankly worried about, considering varian's.... past inventons), she'd followed along to make sure varian was okay. and for her own reasons, of course, but she'd come to realize she'd actually need him around if she had any hope of solving the black rocks. and, she might feel slightly bad. and by slightly bad, i mean crushing guilt. ]
[ anyway, ever since varian's acquired his little job, rapunzel has been misunderstanding capitalism entirely and buying food after drink after food, naively believing the money goes directly into the workers' pockets. poor, sweet, summer rapunzel. it's also had some consequences. rapunzel was never meant to have this much sugar and caffeine in her body. ]
[ (the real mystery is where did she get her money from. but anyway. ) ]
YONA!
[ she squeals, at an octave and volume nearly subhuman. she grabs yona from wherever she is in line and pulls her into a bonecrushing hug. ]
