[disheartening]

Once upon a time in a faraway spaceship.

Do continue the tale according to your own imagination and while you think, however long that will take -

What do you know of magic? aside for fairy dust and happily ever after.

[First mention of Wonderland, now this. His expression is somewhere between bemused and judgemental.]

I see subtlety continues to elude you.

[ have a grin, Gold. ]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Will you be asking their experiences of wicked witches, next?

I'll ask them what I want. For them, it is all metaphors as it is. Funny, the amount of blunt hints one may give and they still can't see what's right before them.

[ and it's a fun game to play. ]

And when you stumble over one you have so clearly underestimated?

I can handle my own matters, imp.

And I would love to leave you to it, dearie, but unfortunately our circumstances don't allow us as much space as usual.

And unfortunately for you, your comfort and space is not really high on my priority list.

If any mess you make manages to even splash against my shoes, I can assure you, your comfort will jump right to the top of mine.

You think you scare me? I know you for many years, Rumple.

Give it your best shot.

And I've been around for many, many more. Don't think you've seen everything I'm capable of, Regina. It's in both our interests that things here are handled with some delicacy.

And how delicate would they remain if the ship brought my mother here come next jump? Or! Better yet -

[ a smile, a sweet one, the one she knows he hates. ]

The pirate who wishes himself a crocodile. Do you think he will show you delicacy?

[ no, then, they would both be lost. ]

I think, at the end of the day, delicacy is quite the odd request from the man who took away his arm and gave him his nickname. You know of how I speak.

[His expression darkens, but not into quite the amount of rage she'd probably like to see from him. Hook was a mess he should have dealt with long ago, and if he happened to arrive here, he'd be a mess dealt with promptly.]

It wasn't a request, dearie.

[Continuing the argument would only show her just how much leverage she had in this situation, being the only one - that he knew of - capable of revealing his true nature and power to the people on the ship. So it's best not to continue it at all, which makes the ability to disconnect the feed really rather refreshing.]
