Oh... oh, this is strange! Your headspace is definitely... ehe, oh my, Mun- oh, should I call you Mun? That's a pretty weird name if you ask me-

[ ahem ]

But uh, really. Not like- not like you're weird or anything! I mean- I'm pretty weird. I guess we're both weird. But... I'm not sure about what you're telling me. I... don't think I can really agree with that. You know? You know.

I... don't even want to deal with that creep anymore. I have Kristoff now, and- Elsa, too. Well not like that that'd just be weird but you get what I mean! Things are really really good for me right now--

You're not listening, are you?

Naive enough to be tricked a second time, my dear? vuv

[hansome_devil]

[Funny how those things work. To be placed in the same space without so much as a reason why. He wasn't too far back-- just far enough behind her for dramatic effect to not be noticed. Out of reach. He tilted his head to the side-- a little unsure for a moment if it was even her-- but the braid said it all, and in a calm, soft voice, he called for her:]

...A-Anna?

sobs why omg no

[wait_what]

[ A flinch. Hearing his voice, she turned around- frowning as she gave a most confused look. ]

... Hans-?

[ But aren't you in jail or dead somewhere. Either way, she'll furrow her brow and draw her bottom lip in. She's clearly not used to this stupid headspace thing, but she's not going to let herself look silly again. ]

Don't tell me I'm stuck with you here.

[hansome_devil]

[A raise of the eyebrow. Luckily, if he was going to be stuck with this... stupid little girl, he may as well present his best side. It would come in handy later, he was sure of it. He unfortunately doesn't doubt your airheadedness to the extent you'd forgive him.]

Do you have... any ideaaaa....
You know, where we are? One moment I was being dragged away... well, because of you, and the next, I'm here.

[Wow. He wasn't even acknowledging all that rejection heartbreak stuff. Rude.]

[wait_what]

[ She puffed up her cheeks. ]

I don't know. And besides, I don't want to talk to a jerk like you.

[ It was obvious by how she shifted her weight from side to side and how, even as she crossed her arms (regally? she figured it seemed regal), her fingers tapped at her elbows... she was itching to talk.

It was a lame resistance, but one all the same. ]

[hansome_devil]

There are things more important than that.
...


What if we're here forever?
Then what?

[He was still DETERMINED to become king of something. He certainly couldn't do it here. He walked past her, looking around, squinting and spinning around. Get a look at this strange place from all angles. Too bad it didn't help much.]

[wait_what]

[ Pretty empty, considering it was a headspace... white walls all around. It kind of felt like an asylum- there were even the occasional cushions on the ground.

Either way, Anna would move to sit on one of the cushions, a little unladylike. ]

......

[ A huff as she finally exhaled from her puffy cheeks. ]

That's impossible! I'm sure- that Mun wouldn't do that! I mean, she's really weird- like, really weird but I don't think she'd trap us here forever! That's just cruel...!

Besides, I want- I want to see Elsa again. And Kristoff.

[ She frowned, looking away from Hans before she found herself glancing to him. Just to make sure he wasn't up to anything fishy. ]

... I mean, you deserve to be stuck here, but I-... well, that doesn't matter. T-the point is! You're the one who deserves to be stuck in some weird place like this and go crazy. Not me.

[ So why is she here? Worse, where the flying heck did that voice that was talking to her go? Mun, Anna really wants to talk to you right about now. ]

[1/2]

[hansome_devil]

W-What? Wait, what?

[He turned to her suddenly...]

[2/2]

[hansome_devil]

And then suddenly--
He'd be pushing against his temple... hard. Rolling his fingers against the pulsing headache that he was starting to gain just from being in her presence. Eyes shut, he opened them a moment after, hands gesturing a little dramatically to explain to her.]

Okay. Okay. Look, listen. I get you're mad.
No need to make it any more obvious.
Okay. Got it. Understand completely.
But you've gotta learn to... grow up.

I mean, we DID just meet.
That part-- was your fault.

...

[He's not gonna let her finish, already starting to head in a given direction-- did direction even work here?]

[wait_what]

Excuse me?

[ A huff- okay, as he headed farther out in the white abyss, she would stand and follow him- running and nearly tripping over the flat floor a few times in her upset energy. ]

You're the one who - who just left me- no, wait, wait wait even better- locked me up in a room to let me freeze to death! And!! You tried to kill my sister!

[ She got even more loud, wishing her voice would just give a satisfying echo, anything really. Either way, she looked positively upset. ]

You know, you could have actually been nice! You know, for being nice.

[hansome_devil]

You don't actually think I was going to just leave you there, did you?

[A softer voice. He was lying, to be honest, but he wasn't going to take the blame for that if she was still living.]

[wait_what]

...

[ Eh. She stopped for a second, before she hurried to catch up with him. ]

Wait, what?-

...

[ She shook her head, caught off-guard by that softer voice. ]

Well, yeah! The next time I saw you after that, you were kiiinda trying to kill my sister. I kinda figure you'd have left me there to die.

[ she muttered, side-eying him so hard. ]

It's not exactly what nice guys do? You know. Attempting sister murder. Or whatever.

[hansome_devil]

Anna...

[He stopped, turning to look down at her... trying to look as serious as possible. It wasn't trying, per se. He was effortlessly a liar.]

...All I wanted to do was protect you and protect your kingdom.
...
I said all those things...
--Because I didn't want you to follow me and put yourself in danger--
The real danger. Not your sister.

[wait_what]

[ Oh. She stopped as well, flushing as she nearly bumped into him- tucking an errant strand of hair behind her ear as she furrowed her brow. Taking an awkward step backward.

Protect her? Wait, why was he trying to justify himself suddenly? She didn't get it. Either way, she humored him- ]

... What real danger?

[ She was too curious. If there was anything Anna was, it was too genuinely kind, and too crazily naive. Even if she still didn't trust him... she squinted slightly at him. ]

[hansom_devil]

[Oh. It was working?
Well, may as well play this card.
He took a step foward.]

Anna, when I took control of the kingdom, it was so clear to see.
How many enemies you had. People who wanted to simply steal the kingdom away from you. From Elsa.

[He sounded so serious. You could almost hear the faintest of string numbers playing. He sighed... as if he were in the middle of a confessional.]

...I didn't want you to have to face any of that.
Not until I handled it and could make sure you both were safe.
Things... didn't go according to plan, but I promise I wouldn't have dared to harm either of you.

[Something formal. And reminiscent of the time before he turned.]

[wait_what]

[ She stayed put- staring up at him, brow furrowed. What? She seemed to be seriously considering it for a moment- ]

... Then why were you about to kill my sister?

[ she asked though, sullenly. As much as his words sounded very refreshing and nice- she wasn't about to forget about that.

Even if a part of her suddenly wanted to justify it in her head. See, she didn't make bad decisions! See, she was right about Hans! See?... a silly part of her nagged- but she stayed serious, biting her lip. There was Kristoff now- Kristoff and Elsa and Olaf. It was stupid to even try to justify Hans- right? Right.]

[1/2]

[hansom_devil]

I thought she killed you.
I was going to come back for you, but I just... I... I got so scared.
And angry. And... I...
I regret all of it.

...

[2/2]

[hansome_devil]

...

[He blinked. Quick-- distract her from the inconsistencies!]

Looking back, I can think of a million ways I could've handled it.
I literally picked the worst choice.

...

Wow. I was a jerk.
I can understand why you hate me.

[He looked like such a kicked puppy...]

[wait_what]

[ Oh. Oh- Anna wasn't sure how to feel, to be honest. She still felt bitterly betrayed- but in her heart of hearts- she wanted to forgive him. Even if she wasn't sure she really could. After all, no matter what- no matter how many times he apologized, he was going to kill Elsa, and that was fact- her very own sister. Anna could never forgive that- and yet, the way Hans looked made her tilt her head down, looking uncomfortably at the white floor. ]

... Do you really? Regret all of that, I mean. Because- because it was pretty horrible of you.

[ Her toes curled in her boots, and she looked up at him again- staring as if she could pick something up, honestly she probably couldn't.

In that moment, Anna wondered if maybe Hans was an okay guy. But- ]

And- and uh- I- I broke up our engagement. When I sent you off.

[ she added, a little defiantly- all too quick as she flushed- oh this was strange. She was seeing Kristoff now! ]

[hansome_devil]

O-oh...

R-really?

[They were displaced in different timelines, clearly.]

Th-that quick?

[wait_what]

[ A swallow before she nodded, staring up at him. ]

Uh-huh. Um. Maybe you're not as bad as I thought, but I'm- I'm s-seeing someone else now. He's smellier and he's a little crazy about his reindeer but he's a good guy.

[ she let out bluntly, even though she was a little flustered. It was difficult- he was being so kicked puppy-ish and pitiful. ]

[1/3]

[hansome_devil]

O-Oh.

...

[He leaned back, giving her her much overdue space. He didn't actually move his legs but, he seemed a little... off? She was dumb, but it was pretty obvious.]

[2/3]

[hansome_devil]

...

[hansome_devil]

...

C-congratulations.

1/2

[wait_what]

[ A little nod- and she nervously giggled- ]

Um... t-thanks, I guess. Wow, this is weird. Uhh. You... um...

2/2

[wait_what]

[ A concerned look. ]

Are you okay?

[ She did sense something off indeed. ]
