So what exactly are you thinking to do with me? In case you didn't notice, I'm not the most reliable.

But you're a writer. You'll come up with something.

Careful with the questions. She might just stick you in a game.

[unvarnished]

[yeah he knows he'll have to go after Emma no matter what. that's his life]

I can't help my inquisitive mind, your highness.

[willalwaysfindyou]

I see you know me but I don't know you. Mind introducing yourself, stranger?

[unvarnished]

...It's Booth. August W. Booth.

[gild]

Finally, a bit of truth out of you.

[unvarnished]

Too tired to lie, I guess.

[theboywiththebook]

What canon point did your mun take you from?

[unvarnished]

Henry... I know what happens to me. But she says I can have another chance.

[theboywiththebook]

Wait...what did happen to you?

[unvarnished]

The curse. I failed and... [well, Henry saw enough to guess the rest]

[theboywiththebook]

You...you turned back into a puppet?

[Ouch, well, Henry's not feeling that great now.]

[unvarnished]

Yeah. I did.

[theboywiththebook]

Every curse can be broken. We'll make you human again.

[unvarnished]

I admire your determination, kid.

[theboywiththebook]

Well, it is true, curses can always be broken.

[unvarnished]

Operation Cobra's still going strong, then?

[theboywiththebook]

Of course. It has to if we want to beat the evil queen.

[unvarnished]

..Then I guess this little wooden boy's back in.

[cinnamoncocoa]

[ She doesn't say anything for a few seconds. ] You were a kid then, August.

[unvarnished]

So you... you believe me? [despite everything, his hopes are rising]

[cinnamoncocoa]

You're kind of forced to when you fight a dragon to save your kid. [ And the rest of the town but... Henry was definitely the highest priority. ]

[unvarnished]

[a soft laugh] I miss all the fun.

[cinnamoncocoa]

Remind me next time to push you to the front of the line. [ A pause. ] I'm guessing you're alright, then?

[unvarnished]

Thanks, but I don't do well with dragons.

[a more serious tone] Better than the last time you saw me, I'd imagine.

;-; I have to say I love your August /ttly nervous

[cinnamoncocoa]

[ She just shakes her head; she didn't think she did well with dragons either. ] Well, you're flesh again. I have to say that's a lot better than I last saw you.

don't be nervous I'm still voice testing, but ty for the compliment :)

[unvarnished]

..thanks. It's nice to have functioning lungs.

sob. even with this girl in a game, I still feel like voice testing...all the time.

[cinnamoncocoa]

Yeah, that is crucial, isn't it?

I feel that :)

[unvarnished]

So I've heard.

♥

[cinnamoncocoa]

So, what? Are you lucky enough to be stuck in your... "mun"'s head?

[unvarnished]

For now. I'm trying to stay there. Sounds better than going into a cursed castle.

sob.. i'm so so sorry this is late ;-;

[cinnamoncocoa]

If only my mun would decide to put me back in her head.

no apologies necessary

[unvarnished]

I don't know, I like the idea of a second chance.

♥♥

[cinnamoncocoa]

Then why don't you take my place in this city I'm in? Granted I have another month before I'm forced back there.

[unvarnished]

I don't think it works that way.

[cinnamoncocoa]

[She laughs, shaking her head. It was a relief to talk to him... And not think he was crazy.] I guess it doesn't, does it?
