on the subject of homing the homeless

[rememberer]

If you're interested in playing games with someone, I can think of a few more suitable candidates.

( david, it's not nice to throw your more whimsical acquaintances to the wolves. )

If it's not somewhere I can go to help my family, I'm not interested.

( he's meaning to be self-assured and authoritative, of course. it just doesn't quite come out that way. )

[uncurse]

What if it's somewhere that you can help?

[rememberer]

I'd consider it. ( is that meant to be a joke? could be, he's smiling a bit. but that might be just because of her. )

[uncurse]

Consideration's the best I get, huh? Guess it'll do in a pinch. [ she smirks, tilting her head a little. ] I might know a place, depending on how out of your element you're ready to be. I mean, no horses. [ if he can joke she can tease. ]

[rememberer]

Believe it or not, I know how to drive. ( though his license might not be entirely legit. gotta love magic. )

Should I even guess at what you've been getting up to at this hypothetical place?

[uncurse]

If we're being honest, I think the most terrifying thing on the list might actually be the decision to teach Hook how to use a phone.

[ #regret. for real tho. that could also just be emma's deflective tendencies at work, pushing aside the real issues of psychological warfare. ]

But ... No cars, either. Something about them not fitting in the hallways of a spaceship.

[withpower]

Don't expect that to fly very far. The less you like it here, the more determined they are to torment you.

[And threats don't work either. She tried.]

[rememberer]

Are you speaking from experience on this one, Regina? ( he'd ask why she hasn't turned her mun into a frog or something, yet, but that level of taunting is beyond him.

still, his arms are crossed over his chest, and he's considering that. ) Maybe you haven't tried the right approach.

[sneewittken]

Homeless isn't so bad.

[rememberer]

Is that another way of saying you'd still love me if we had to live on the street?

[sneewittken]

I'd still love you if we lived in a shoebox in the forest. But I meant games tend to do horrible things to people like us. I'd rather be homeless, or still in Storybrooke.

[rememberer]

Glad to hear it. But Storybrooke isn't always the safest bet, either. I don't know, a gamble might be worth it.

[forgodssake]

You might come to regret that bit. About wishing your family anywhere you might go.

Not that the sentiment isn't completely understandable.

[ ...yep. Not your fandom. Player doesn't care. Charming. ]

[rememberer]

Honestly? Between being in a horrible place with or without them, I'd chose with every time.

I'd have a few people to answer to, otherwise.

CHARMINNNNNGGGGGGGGG

[cinnamonie]

[ oh hey look it's her supposed true love.

guess whose mun was awful and took her pre-curse breakage. ]

Aren't you going to consider the type of game first?

snow <3

[rememberer]

( sobs quietly

but then actually stops to think about what she'd said. )

I don't really need to. I've handled enough different places that it wouldn't be a big deal.

( as long as you were there, &etc. )

casually attempts to drag to eway...... c:

[cinnamonie]

Like Boston?

[ whoa mm, calm down. emma told you about this curse that's apparently real. told you that people actually think they're the characters henry claimed they were.

no need to let yourself get hurt over things that apparently don't matter in the grand scheme of things. ]

How far does 'family' extend?

i will definitely give it a look

[rememberer]

I've never been to Boston. ( he tilts his head, surprised because... she knows that.

and then he's giving her a long look, and decides to say: ) You tell me.

[choosesfate]

What about helping someone else? I know it might not seem as appealing but I know that you're good at doing that.

[rememberer]

I think I'm supposed to say that I'm an equal-opportunity do-gooder. ( yeah, he's laughing at himself a bit. though he can't be blamed for his preferences, he thinks. )

[choosesfate]

Well I know that if I was ever stranded in some other strange place and you were there I would feel a lot better for it.

[rememberer]

I appreciate the vote of confidence. Though I'm sure you'd be up to handling it... whatever or wherever it happened to be.

[hookforahand]

I don't think they really care about what we want, mate.

[rememberer]

What, you couldn't talk yours around? ( where is your charm now, hook? )

[hookforahand]

No, unfortunately I could not. [So much dryness in his tone right now.] Sadly, mine has not done much with me since she found my... 'voice.' But I am well aware what fates have fallen upon other voices in her head. I consider myself quite lucky, really.

[rememberer]

It sounds to me like you're taking the easy out.
