Eugene liked to think that he had led a comparatively normal life before he met Rapunzel - between capers, it was fairly dull, to be honest - but all of that had changed, now, and he couldn't really complain too much.

He could really go for some normal about now, he thought as he rounded a corner of the castle hallway and came face to face with one of the invaders, who was moving his sword way too fast to even be real, and this was going to be it for Eugene Fitzherbert, prince consort, formerly known as Flynn Rider, professional thief; he shut his eyes.

There was the clatter of hooves, followed by a clang, and when he opened his eyes he saw Maximus, frying pan clutched hard in his teeth, the invader on the ground, the worse for wear, and Eugene had never been so glad to see his wife's favorite horse; who cared about normal anymore, anyway?
