I don't suppose anyone's given any more thought to what happened before we were all forced to trick or treat.
[No, not the gravity thing. Zelena doesn't care about that aside from being annoyed that it happened to begin with.]
Unless you've all managed to deal with it quietly, but I've been here long enough to know that when something big happens, it's far from quiet. So then, the way I see it, either you're all still looking for that supposed spy and made absolutely no progress.
[She's sticking to voice, but the amusement in her tone probably makes it clear that she finds that hilarious.]
Or you've simply given up, and decided to ignore it. Can't say that would surprise me either, though it's a bit disappointing. Here I was hoping you'd all provide some sort of entertainment by accusing and turning on each other. But no, I suppose that's really just too much to ask, isn't it?

[Hmm, let's see. How deep does she twist the metaphorical knife? It's a tricky thing, she doesn't know anymore than he does, so it's hard to guess...
Oh the hell with subtlety.]
After all, if you're looking for someone to blame, as one of the people closest to her, I'd start by looking in the mirror.
no subject
he's not going to admit it to Zelena, though. )
You're easy to blame because you're constantly guilty, aren't you? You killed someone she loved, you murdered a woman she was trying to save. If anyone deserves punishment, it'd be you. ( the shoe fits pretty well, as far as he's concerned. ) You're lucky for that whelp you're carrying, even drowned in darkness Emma wouldn't have it in her to harm a child.
( just... force her to be born super early to get her out of the way, but that's cool, right? )
no subject
Funny then, you'd think I would've been the first one on her list, but look at that, I wasn't. And you know what? I don't think I will be.
[There's just this annoying smirk because while she's not untouchable, she sure seems to be for all intents and purposes.]
Even before, the only one who tried something was dear old Rumple, and look at where that got him. Really tried something anyway, not counting locking me up and hoping I'll stay locked up. Thanks, by the way, couldn't have done it without you.
[She's brought it up before, but she's so glad Hook was willing to lend a hand.]
And now, well, like you said, she'll won't harm a child, even if it is mine, so it looks like I'll happily spend the rest of my days not paying for my crimes while she takes it out on all of you for...whatever it is you did.
[Because the hell if she has any idea.]
Funny really, would've thought one of you would've stepped up at some point before that, or at least made an attempt, but no. Well, I suppose in that respect, you're at least smarter than you all look.
no subject
( playing disaffect is a game two can play, and despite the tense cut of his jaw, he can be pretty good at it when he wants to be. )
You might be mad enough to cut off your own hand, but last I remember you were right back where you started, tucked away in a basement with only cement walls to listen to your nattering. We'll get back one day and when we do, you're a powerless failure trapped with your own misery.
Not that you're any less useless here, frankly. Stirring up uncertainty about spies, I do wonder why nobody takes you seriously.
( no he doesn't. sarcasm. )
no subject
[Normally she wouldn't argue with the damn pirate about this, but it grates on her. It really does. Every single day it grates on her, and the longer things go on, the more her own unimportance drives her up a wall.
Let her try and regain some semblance of composure instead of just scowling and whining.]
Just because I've had a few setbacks doesn't mean I won't land on my feet. And when I do, I'll make a point of reminding you all that I'm far from some powerless failure you all can write off and make a mockery of.
[...which he didn't say, but yeah she's not taking this well.]
no subject
Of course you will. Just like you'll see Wonderland again, with the little one in tow. I've never met a woman as gifted at lying to herself as you, Zelena. ( of course he remembers that. he'd held his tongue then but now he sees no reason to. he got her to squirm so why not twist the knife with the reminder she'll never get what she is hoping for? Regina and Robin won't allow it, even Zelena has to know that. she could get there, possibly, and they'd all be glad to be quit of her, but the baby wouldn't be with her. not in a million years. )
For all your posturing and proclamations of wickedness, all you do is grouse and do what you're told. I'd say quit while you're ahead, but you'd need to be ahead for that.
action
Don't suppose you'd like to try saying that face to face, would you?
[Yeah, this is...probably not the best idea she's had and she's sure she'll catch hell for it, but you know what? The pirate needs to suffer and she's gone so long without doing anything wicked that she's long overdue for an outburst of some sort.]
no subject
none, and perhaps that's why a part of him is responding so easily to it.
he is surprised, but only barely. he turns toward her snarling face with one of distinct disinterest, considering he's staring down a woman that has used her magic on him on more than one occasion. )
Which part? The bit where you'll never get to raise that baby of yours? Or that you're hilariously inept at all this wickedness you like to go on about?
( apparently, saying it to her face is no problem at all. )
no subject
A pity really. You'll come back, and I doubt you'll have gotten the point. But then I suppose I'll just have to try again if it doesn't take, won't I?
[On some level, she probably realizes that she just crossed a major line and is going to have a lot of trouble on her hands, but as far as the rest of her being is concerned, she doesn't care. He ran his mouth, kept running his mouth, and now he has to pay. He just has to, otherwise it's like everything he said was true, and she can't let that happen.]
no subject
there's a sense of pain from the knife, of course there is. he laughs, almost surprised but not really. it's not that he ever doubted she had it in her, after all, for all his mouthing off. no, he's not surprised, a part of him was expecting it. maybe pushing for it. he hasn't been able to forget his fight with Alistair, hasn't forgotten the lack of injury from that, either. not to say he really wanted to get stabbed, but he certainly could have worked harder to avoid it.
when he pulls the blade free there's a stain of blood on the blade, yet no mark left behind. everything that's been wrong since he arrived clicks together, like jagged pieces of a particularly ugly puzzle. he knows this power, he knows what drowns a man in darkness, inspires him to easy hatred, keeps him from sleeping, keeps him from harm. he doesn't know how it happened, but he knows exactly what is wrong with him. )
Look at that. It already isn't sticking.
( he laughs again, just at the sheer bizarreness of it. he's a dark one. he's the creature he vowed to kill, centuries ago. he can't imagine how, or why, but suddenly it seems so obvious. someone didn't want him to remember, didn't want any of them to remember. why is that, he has to wonder?
Zelena is honestly a secondary concern on top of all the rest. yet she's still very much present, and that might not be a good thing, considering she did just stab him. )
I don't suggest you try again now, witch. Unless you're willing to let me return the favor, and I don't think you'll take it quite as well.
( nothing about his expression or composure suggests he's joking about that, either. so much for all his heroism, push come to shove, even when the push can't harm him, he's just as happy to regress as the wicked witch herself. )
no subject
...well, okay, but if that's the case, how can there be two Dark Ones?
Ugh, as much as she'd like to just continue thinking up more and more ways to murder him, she realizes that she might need to let cooler heads prevail. Especially if he is a Dark One, that requires a more delicate touch than just apparating in and stabbing him or throwing fire in his face.]
Don't worry, I won't try, now. But this is far from over.
[And with that failed attempt at acting like she hasn't lost control of the situation, she's teleporting back to her room because what the hell was that.]
