omg Totsuka.... i'm so sorry, Elizabeth is the kind of person that actively pursues awful moral quandary questions and then is devastated by the answers she gets. also, you know, the whole downside of Rapunzel childhood being that she is painfully naive and thus is deeply hurt by anything negative, hahaha.

Thorin is 100% welcome to adopt her because there is no way he could be a worse dad than Comstock or Booker.
