(Lil snippet from this tangled au i made recently :])

"How...how long have you been in that tower?" Fwhip asks, looking over at Jimmy. The fish boy sits next to him in the grass, tail curled comfortably around himself. Until the young prince spoke his eyes had been transfixed on the pond nearby, but now they moved to meet his; and the prince felt his face redden just the slightest bit.

"Oh, I don't know." Jimmy shrugs, as if the topic wasn't as serious as it truly was. "My whole life probably."

Fwhip feels some of the color drain from his face as he looks at Jimmy in utter disbelief, and probably horror as well. He can't imagine being trapped somewhere for that long, terrified to leave because you've been told you'll be killed if you do. He can't imagine being stuck somewhere only because of lies a family memeber feeds you. He can't imagine being stuck with only four walls and a window, forced to wonder what it's really like oustide. Thats no way to live. It's not right, in fact it's down right horrifying.

It's abusive to do that to someone, that's what it is. Plain and simple abuse, and Fwhip is going to have so many words with Lizzie when he next sees her. And none of them are good words, either

Jimmy seems to notice the look on his new friends face, and shrugs again. "It's fine though really!" He smiles, eyes momentarily flicking towards the nearby pond once more. "You get used to it..."

Though the cod's voice is cheery, there is that distinct note of sadness, of longing, underneath it all. And Fwhip isn't going to let Jimmy be sad anymore. He's not going to let him think what happened to him was okay, because it wasn't. It really, really wasn't.

He puts a hand over Jimmy’s and squeezes it as hard as he dares. The blonde's gaze flicks down to their now intertwined fingers, but Fwhip’s stays fixed on his face.

"You're never going back to that tower, okay?" He says, voice firm yet as kind and gentle as he can mange. Not as long as I'm here.

Jimmy’s gaze flicks back up to him, and his breath stutters for a moment. "...Okay. Okay, I won't go back." He mutters, and there seems to be not a hint of regret lingering on those words.

Fwhip smiles back at him, one that is undeniably fond. "Good."

Jimmy returns the smile a moment later, and the prince knows in his soul that he would do anything for this boy. This poor, sheltered boy who he wants to show entire the world and then some.

Thank you to @sboochi @hijacksecrets! Both of you inspired me into creating my own AU, and I have been quietly working this for almost a year.

So, I like to present the idea of: CHAMPIONS OF ARCADIA AU

A world where this beautiful blorbos are reunited by the King of Camelot himself, to save Arcadia, and the magic of the realm.

Generally plot synopsis of my fwhimmy tangled au. Because I have no one else to tell this too but tumblr dot com

Basically when Jimmy was young, the cod and salmon were very big enemies, and whatever was happening was making the cod deathly sick. To protect him, Lizzie hid her brother and herself in a tower. But as the years passed, the problem was slowly solved, and now all the fish folk get along pretty well. But Lizzie had always told Jimmy the outside was dangerous, and he had to stay inside. She wasn't she how to tell him otherwise, but considered doing so. Eventually she starts lying, so things won't change and she can keep him close forever, while also enjoying the life she'd started to build outside the tower. (I have more thoughts and ideas for Lizzies character here don't you worry. She's very complex and I can't wait to dig into that more >:])

For his whole life, Jimmy is stuck in the tower. He doesn't mind it really, but he can see a river just outside his window. His instincts are always telling him to go to the water!! Go to the river!! But he's a little scared, admittedly. But but, he's also eighteen and maybe it would be a good birthday present. Maybe Lizzie would let him leave the tower, just once, on his birthday? She doesn't, but it's a good attempt, and it only makes Jimmy more motivated to leave no matter what.

And then we have fwhip, the prince of their kingdom. The royal family has its own issues, but in short they leave the prince feeling a more than a little slighted. Like his sister Gem gets more attention than him. So naturally, he starts acting up, starts doing petty crimes, because they can't arrest him. The only thing they can do is scold him and lock him in the castle, which he can always sneak out of.

One day, when the summer festival is being set up, fWhip almost ruins it. Which means he's in pretty good trouble and currently being chased down. (the two thieves flynn allies with in the movie are replaced by sausage and joey, guards who are very close to the head guard, xornorth) So he runs from the guards, and manages to loose them in the woods. And in the woods he finds a tower with a boy in it, who knocks him out lol. But once fwhip is awake, Jimmy seizes his opportunity. If fwhip takes him to the water, then he'll keep the prince out of trouble. And fwhip agrees, because its the only way to get back into town without being arrested (and maybe he thinks jimmy is kinda pretty)

and then he learns about lizzie, whos his friend, and how he's been keeping her brother hostage and lying to him for what has to be a decade at this point. safe to say fwhip is. greatly horrified. he realizes he cant let jimmy go back to the tower, and starts workshopping a plan to get them both back to the castle safely. he doesn't care about whatever trouble hes in anymore, jus getting jimmy out of his horrible living situation.

You know the bar they go to in the movie? Yep, that's fill of hermits!! fwhip frequents the tavern when he cans, so he knows they can help him. [insert the i got a dream song here. btw.] He talks to Grian about jimmy's situation, and manages to sneak both of them out. But they are chased by sausage and joey again, who have started working with lizzie after she returned home to find jimmy missing. she says fwhip kidnapped him, and sausage is doubtful, but he believes it, if only a way to get his friend in custody temporarily. Lizzie also overhears what happens at the tavern, so she starts making her own plan to stop fwhip and jimmy before they get to the castle.

also gandalf, gems cat, fills the sidekick animal role. he just shows up randomly to help them/be a problem. he helps them get away from joey and sausage, and then the cat is gone again. after that, fwhip and jimmy manage to get into the town, and enjoy the summer festival. they meet the rest of fwhip and lizzies friends, the empires crew, and all of them adore jimmy to bit. he bonds with joel especially, not having any idea that he's dating lizzie.

eventually, they have to leave the festival, because both lizzie and the guards have caught up to them. they manage to slip away that evening as everyone prepares to send the lanterns out, but gems onto them. probably because of her magic act tbh, who bothered them the wholeee festival.

The lantern scene happens. Jimmy and Fwhip, on a boat all by themselves with lanterns around. And yes, unlike tangled they do kiss! But the moment is over once they get to shore sadly. lizzie is there to take jimmy home, all while fwhip gets taken into custody a few feet away. jimmy does start protesting that he doesnt want to go home, but lizzie is too scared to let him leave the tower forever, and starts dragging him back anyways.

in the meantime, fwhip manages to convince sausage and joey of whats really happening. they're both a little reluctant, but they give him a palace horse and let him go after lizzie and jimmy. they're to go find xornorth at what remains of the festival, and fill them in before heading out to the tower themselves. gandalf leads gem and joel over to them as theyre talking to xornorth, and the two of them join in on going to the tower.

back at said tower, jimmy is fucking miserable man. he just wants to go back to the water, and fwhip. As soon as lizzie has her back turned he's sneaking out the window, only find the little intervention party waiting for him outside. i wont go into full detail of the scene, but quite a lot happens. i could do it more justice when i actually write it, compared to this quick little summary (its not the only detail im admitting haha)

in the end, all of them go back to the palace, lizzie being held as a prisoner for a little bit. but eventually, she requests to go back to the tower. they let her, figuring it better if she's further away from jimmy right now. he still cares about her, but he's pretty traumatized from what happened that night. but he heals with time, and by getting closer to fwhip and the empires crew. (at first fwjip isnt sure if he should try to advance the relationship anymore, but they get there eventually, once jimmy has healed enough <3)

i think im going to end it with lizzie saying sorry. jimmys not going to accept her back right away, nor is everyone else, but that will take time. shes going to finally leave that tower herself, and thats all that matters. that theyre both our of the tower for good.

i have a lot more planned but again, this is just a general summary. very excited to finally get writing it hehe
