[Texting? It's a bit beyond her abilities, considering typing mechanisms of any sort weren't exactly available in her tower. Not to mention that typing feels doubly unnatural with the alphabet all out of order and spaced strangely. Initially, the other two options aren't much better for her, and it takes some fiddling around before she gets the audio function to turn on.]
Um... hello? Am I doing this right? Can anyone hear me?
[Well, assuming she's using it correctly, here goes nothing.]
My name is Rapunzel, and while I'm sure that gigantic, talking, magic-living-statue person meant well, I really, really can't stay long. You see, I have a very important thing I recently set off to do, and if I don't go right back to take care of it, I may never have a chance to again... [She mumbles the rest of the sentence.] and I've kind of been waiting my whole life for it. [Ahem.] So, if anyone would be so kind to tell me how I could possibly return home, I'd be really appreciative.
[There's a small moment of thoughtful silence.]
But before I forget, by any chance, did someone by the name of Euge-- um, Flynn Rider get here before me? I know it might be a bit of a stretch, but I thought it might be a good idea to check.
[In all honesty, Rapunzel would be relieved to see a familiar face in this strange, enormous, intimidating world. That said, if there is some sort of hidden way back home, she'd need to make sure Flynn could return with her.]
Okay, I think that's everything I wanted to ask about.
...And I really do hope this strange thing is actually working and that I haven't been talking to myself this entire time.

I didn't know it was possible for time to work differently, but I hope so too.
[Rapunzel puts on a grateful smile. It's the least she can do.]
It's nice to meet you, Cinderella. So... have you been here long?
[Video]
What was it you were trying to do before coming here?
[Video]
[What awful timing this place has.]
I was going to see the lights. The lanterns.
[Well, that sounds fairly mundane.]
They're released once a year, and thousands of them float up through the sky... always on my birthday. I was able to see them from my tow- where I lived, though I was never able to tell what they were. I actually didn't learn what they were until just yesterday.
I guess for once in my life, I just wanted to see them in person.
[Video]
[She shrugs some. Nothing she can do about it now.]
Floating lanterns? Sounds like some kind of light festival.
[She doesn't remember anything about the Rapunzel she knows talking about any light festivals. Cindy wonders what else is different from this one.]
I can't blame you for wanting to see something like that up close.
[Video]
That's not pleasant at all. I hope everything ended up working out despite this place taking you.
[It's a rather meaningless condolence in the scheme of things, though it wouldn't feel right not giving it.]
I'm really not sure if it's a festival or not. Flynn said they lit them every year for a "lost princess", but that's about all I know.
[Unfortunately, it might be all she'll ever know on the subject, given current circumstances.]
