and i keep wondering

Rapunzel is well aware that from an outside perspective, she and Sweeney make a very odd pairing, but she loves him. She understands him in a way that a lot of people probably don't, and he's the same with her. He's big and gruff and sometimes a little mean, but not to her. Never to her.

And that's how she knows that she can trust him, and come to him with her problems, and he won't judge her. Even if it's boy talk. Probably.

After texting him to make sure he's home, Rapunzel shows up at Sweeney's door with a big bottle of whiskey tucked under one arm, and Pascal on her opposite shoulder. She tried talking to him about this, of course, but he's prickly when it comes to boys. It took forever for him to warm up to Peter. Plus, you know, he's not an ancient god with centuries of life experience.

For this, she needs to call in the big guns, so she lifts the bottle of whiskey and uses it to knock loudly on Sweeney's door.
