One Heart Frozen Further, Another Thawed and Melted While the Stone Around It *SHATTERS*...

A grieving drunk Geppetto heartbrokenly carves a puppet out of the pine tree growing over his son's grave in order to try and bring Carlo back a la 'Frankenstein', which he does- in a fashion. But for all that he is Geppetto's son, PINOCCHIO *is NOT* Carlo, even though he believes himself to be at first due to what Geppetto tells him. Eventually, it all wears too much on the woodcarver, and he decides to burn the little wooden puppet up so that he will no longer be hurting or confused, much less lied to...Now *HEARTBROKEN* himself, Pinocchio tearfully makes a break for it and dives into the sea, swimming away from Italy entirely and into the kingdom of Arendelle and also-runaway Prince Hans' own lonely empty life-And come three years later plus more, what will happen with Hans during the events and aftermath of 'Frozen' with someone who truly loves and cares for him by his side besides Sitron???

Inspired by the *OUCH*-feels-inducing fic 'Even an Android Can Cry' by bonniepride as well as the Geppetto of both Guillermo del Toro's 'Pinocchio' and 'Lies of P' trying to (futilely) bring his son Carlo back through Pinocchio; plus Elizabeth Rudnick's 'A Frozen Heart' and wanting Hans to *have some redemption already, pleaseandthankyouverymuch*!! *HEM*- heh, sorry!FIGHT ME- Agnarr and Iduna *LIVE* in this story, as does Tadashi Hamada!!! The former two are simply trapped in Ahtohollan after being saved from the shipwreck by Nokk and 'diving too far' for the truth about The Dam and the Enchanted Forest, and Tadashi's literally blown away during the SFIT fire and wakes up semi with Anya AKA Anastasia's amnesia far far from San Fransokyo.For all the Trolls' attempted matchmaking, Kristoff and Anna are simply friends, same as *ELSA and Kristoff*. And despite being briefly starry-eyed, Anna doesn't end up with Hans either; again, simply good friends.(AN: -On the very latter, ...never mind. *Darn plot-bunnies and rare-TPs*...)Aaanywaaayy, I myself own *NOTHING* save for the *story IDEA* as usual- Disney, Collodi, Zemeckis, Luske, del Toro, 'Lies of P' creators, Buck, Lee, Andersen, Hall, Williams, Marvel, Rudnick, Manscusi, etc. however, DO!!Hope you enjoy, my lovelies...!
