[Varian nods, grateful for Will's offer and slow-and-steady approach to this. He really needs that right now. The whole thing is so overwhelming as is. He's done this enough times to not be utterly convinced that he'll be abandoned for it now, but he's still nervous.

He moves to take a seat, sucking in a breath. Okay. He can do this.]

Thanks. I uh- that means a lot. Okay- um. This gets complicated and a lot of it doesn't matter, but some background stuff you need to know. My world had a magical force called the sundrop- it fell to earth into a flower and had healing properties- our queen drank it while she was sick while pregnant. It's...not actually important but what is important is that it meant the princess, Rapunzel, ended up with the magical powers of the sundrop. Um...with me so far?

[He figures "inexplicable magical bullshit" is at least something Will is more used to than other people. ]
