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.

You sound as if you know him well, this strange storyteller.

Do you regret knowing him?

[ does she? Magic gave Regina a way to escape her mother's clutches, it gave her freedom and power. It also brought her pain, addiction to a force that wasn't her own. She had lived more than twenty years without it but now that she had access to it, she couldn't ignore it.

At the same time, Gold himself, for his own reasons, brought her Henry. And though it also brought her Emma who destroyed her curse and all but ruined the life she had created with dark magic for herself in Storybrooke, she couldn't regret it. For Henry, only for Henry. ]

No.

A wise thing then, to avoid regrets where one can.

[ oh robb, the regrets you have waiting for you. ]

I don't believe in regrets. I led my life avoiding them when I could and dismissing them when I needed to.

[ it's half a lie. She doesn't regret trying to kill Snow, refused to confess to regretting it even when they were about to execute her. She doesn't have many regrets but she does have some, Regina Mills. Daniel, her mother.

Henry, above all. She should have told him many things and if he were here --

If he were here Regina would still be quiet. A regret, indeed. ]

Surely it isn't possible to live without a single regret. Everyone makes mistakes within their lifetime.

They do. Yet how you treat them is something else. Regret would give one nothing. Better just accept what is and swallow it down like a medicine.

Is that truly what you feel?

[ it's too easy to lie when she is very busy convincing herself of it. ]

Indeed.
