(Anonymous) 2016-03-18 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)In the story, it's revealed Gothel spent every Christmas season telling scary stories and using the holiday as a way of keeping Rapunzel from the world outside the tower. According to Rapunzel, Mother Gothel would sing and chant eerie "Christmas tunes" nonstop and told tales of Nicholas; a mythical man who (as the tale goes) would creep into the rooms of children on Christmas Eve to kidnap them.
The traumatic stories would continue through Rapunzel's teenage years, and stayed with the princess even after leaving the tower, as the story focuses on Eugene attempting to subdue Rapunzel's hatred for the holiday by showing her a real Christmas.
I kind of feel like that does the opposite of humanize her. Making a child terrified of Christmas is...kind of a dick move, OP

(Anonymous) 2016-03-18 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)A direct quote from the story in question is "Mother Gothel had made Christmas sound frightening on purpose. It was just another way she had tried to make Rapunzel afraid of the world outside her tower" so it sounds more like she was just manipulating Rapunzel. Or I guess it could have been both.
